course, nothing known as to the cause of the explosion, but there were about fifty people under a mandarin at the powder-mallis where the explosion occurred, and they were all absolutely annihilated. An immense portion of the city, including the district magistrate's yamèn, war demolished,as was also the mission of the Jesuits, which was between two and three miles distant from the mills. A portion of a cannon, between two and three feet long, fell through the roof of the mission, and a large stone fell in the mission caclosure, burying itself in the ground. Many people were killed, the number balog estimated | at three hundred.
GOLD FIND AT PUNJOM. Mr. Jolly, of Punjom, arrived at Singapore on the 1st instant by the Glanggi, says the Free Press, bringing with him a few specimens from a lode which has been come upon in the course of the explorations going on at one of the workings at Bukit Slam, on Ketchau. Specimens can be got, as we all know, from many places in Pabang, and they may mean no more than they can say for themselves. But a couple of these that Mr. Jolly has brought to Singa- As fine as anything we have Been from Pabang. The largest specimen Is about the size of the fist, and large crumbs and flakes of free coarse gold lie all over it, and run through its texture. The second largest specimen was picked up in the dark by Mr. Jolly, who selected it by its evident high specific gravity,
pore Are
The gold-carrying stone was come upon in the level about 60 ft. from the mouth and 30 ft. slong the hanging wall of a quartz reef exposed. On coming upon this rich find Mr. Leembruggen, who is in charge in the absence of Mr. Thomas, went to Punjom to report to Mr. Hardie, and get advice. Mr. Jolly returned with him, saw the place, and advised that the exposed gold-bearing stone, on the roof and apper side of the level, be left undisturbed till Mr. Thomas's return and in the meantime that the level should be continued and a cross-cut made through the reef, about feet thick here just beneath where the gold occurred. The part of the roof and side-wall where the gold is abundantly visible is therefore to stand as it is until it in examined is sitú and authoritatively reported on.
It remains for Mr. Becher's miners to ascer- tala by further workings the extent of this trike, The difficulty of course lies in the question Nothing more can be fail than this. There is whether that sort of stuff be get in quantity. more of the same stuff visible, but how much more cannot be known till the order to cut into
it is given.
The specimens may now be seen at Mr. Becher's office in D'Almeida Street, and, are well worth inspection.

October 19th. For the last few weeks the Governor has been in the city, and sent several memorials to the Throne on the successful management of the Yellow River difficulties. Notwithstanding this, the distress in various districts from the floods is more and more apparent, and a gloomy winter is in prospect. If any relief is given, it will have to come in all probability from the Chinese themselves. The officials make no mention of any great distress, and so far as the Chinese of this city are concerned, no one would suppose people were suffering within a hundred miles of here. Reports from natives elsewhere indicate the true slipation.

One underling in connection with the Magis- trate's yama has lately been starved to death,THE owing to a fiendish effort on his part and the part of others to extort money from a man in the south suburb, whom they fastened up to a tres and barat with incente, till various things were confessed to them and money secured. The neighbours and others, hearing of the butrage, reported it to the Governor, and the guilty man was thus punished to pacify their rage.
Some time since we learned of opposition being raised against Mohammedans in a village in Ichowfu, where they purchased property for the erection of a mosque. Thus Christians are not the only nacs opposed by the intolerant Confucián-Buddhist-Taoist Chinaman.
One of the missionaries has lately, secured for to this city an official proclamation, a translation two chapals in the district of Ch'ang-ch'ing near of which I herewith give:-"Concerning the issue of a proclamation, in accordance with a letter received, from the American Talusionary, Mr. Reld, stating that wiibin the last few years in the limits of the district, in the two villages of Chelchiachuang and Chingyangshu, Protestant chapels have been established and the peace preserved between the converts and the people and, requesting that a proclamation be issued for the information of the people, therefore a proclamation is herewith issued, Informing the people of these places, that aid chapels are found on examination to be engaged in teaching righteousness and not to interfere in other matters, and furthermore that the right is contained in the treaties and has been in operation. for a long time. Let the people and converts know that they must as heretofore be at peace and in friendly barmo- nious relations, that they must not stir up suspicions and envy or arouse disturbance. If any one dares to disaber, he will be severely punished, without any pardon, etc., etc.”

The N. C. Daily News, in its notes from "Native Papers," gives the following interesting account of a crime and its panishment --
The Governor of Kiangsu reports the result of the trial of a number of villagers belonging to the Feng district near Shanghai who, as earlier reported in the pages of the Gasste, in March 1889 attacked and burnt to death a party of soldiers, 14 in all, belonging to the salt adminis- tration service. The facts of the case were as follows:-Hungmiao and other places along the coast in the above-named district, being much frequented by smugglers, the villagers had arranged a system of mutual protection, under which on an alarm of thieves being raised, ganga were to be beaten, and everyone living In the neighbourhood was to turn out, and come

The soldiers thereupon announced their intention of carrying off the sait, but offered to allow her to redeem it. Suspecting them to be thieves the woman went to the back-door and gave the pre-arranged signal"by sounding a gong Whilst the soldiers were remeving the salt to their boats, the villagers began to come up, and fierce. fight ensued. The soldiers wave speedily outnumbered, and were soon stretched senseless on the ground, but in the confusion of the melée it was impossible to say by whom the blows had been struck. Whilst this was the position of affairs, a man named Keng-k'an, who had been previously arrested smuggling, and left tied up in one of the boats, began to shout out for assistance. One
