THERE turned up recently in the Cincinnatti post-office a post-card addressed-“To my dere masin in leven." The note on the other side was as follows --
Chinese authorities at Canton on a charge of having instigated the piratical attack on Messrs. Reque Brothers and party, near Benchat (Tonquin) about a year ago was reported in n late issue of the Courrier d'Haiphong, is likely to be handed over to the French authorities for trial by a Mixed Court composed of Chinese and Frenck officials. Wing Fat-chong is known to be very wealthy, and there are grounds for hoping that the $50.000 which were paid to the pirates as ransom for the Brothers Roque will be wrung from him, on the grounds that he gave laformation to the brigands which led to the only too successful attack and capture of the travellers, with the|| exception of one, Captain Roze, who was killed in the first attempt to break through the cordon of brigands who surrounded the foreigners' temporary dwelling, Messrs. Rogue's chief ac- countant, who of course knew the compradore well, is just now on a visit to Canton-we presume for purposes of identification.
