IT secs strange that a robbery of jowellory belonging to the Empress of Brazil should have affected the stosumers of the Hong- kong, Canton and Macao Steamer Co.; but we live in strange times. Telegraphic in- telligence was received at Macao some ten days ago announcing the loss of some diamonds from the Imperial Brazilian collection, and conveying a warning to be on the lookout for the missing stones. So far so good; and as it would doubtless be four or five, wooks are the precious spoil could be brought near to Macao, the authori ties of the Holy City had ample time in which to make their preparations for dotection. Somo oficial, however, in the neighbour ing Colony must have got it into his head that the diamonds might have come on by telegraph; for energetic measures were Immediately taken to intercept the stolen gooda. The manifest of the White Cloud was demanded and refused, whereupon the discharge of the cargo was promptly stop- ped.
