From further information received in Hong- kong regarding the loss of a steamer off Reunion, it transpires that the doomed vessel is the Kairari, belonging to the Bombay Persia Steam Navigation Company, and not the British India Steamer Assaria, as previously reported.

The denenud was the father of Hein Nga Maung, a govorument pensioner and taikkuggi living in that village, who says that his father was 130 years old when he died (about two weeks ago) and that he lived in the Twin-nige village when Bodaw, the fourth son of Alsungpya, was King (Bodawpaya came to the throns in 1776 and died in 1819).
