Nothing definite is known as to the truth of the report, but it is possible that there is some exaggeration. Bertucci, ac• companined by Reratio and twelve coolles, left Nawong about two months ago to survey the district of Boh Pallio, the mining rights over which have been lately acquired by the Com- pasy. Nothing has since been heard of them, but it is supposed that is only due to the difficulty of communication, the two localities being some four days' journey apart.
