In order to be certafa that no further adverse comments upon the Imperial decice shall be published the Government has ordered all articles intended for publication in Czech papers to be submitted to the police for *pp oval or rejcion three hours before the papers go to press. Das provision of the uspended law has reference to public assemblies. Clubs bave been construed to come under this head and several clob-houses have been closed and the fands and papers of the organizations seized. The Young Czechs are deeply indignant at the action of the Imperial Government and there is much suppressed excitement among the political group. The sathorities are vigilant, however, and it is scarcely believed that the anti-German agitation will go much beyond legitimate bounds,

In consequence of this accouterment anringements were made to send foreign warships and merchant vessels at Rio to positions outside the line of fre. A British gan. boat was to leave the bay to warn all incoming Vessels to stay on the coast until the result of the bombardment was learned. Much anxiety is delt at Rio as to the fate of the city in the event of the success of the rebels, for, in spite of dispatches sent to the Government, there is no doubt as to the loyalty of the fats in the bay, It in said that the garrisons will exchange a few shots, and then haul down the colors and join the rebels. The Government, however, seems confident of the garrison's loyalty and that of the Atoops in the city, even if the farts surrender.

Early on the morning of the and the wind from the N.W. was very fresh, and with a falling glass gave signs of increasing. By evening t was blowing with typhoon force, and so contiqued until midnight of the 3rd. Then It settled down. Although very low, the glass did not reach the level of the previous blow.
One marked feature was that the wind blew steadily from the N.W. all the time. During these two days over six inches of rain fell and this, together with the force of the wind driving the water up from the Gulf of Tanquin, cansed a repetition of the flooding of the town. Houses that had been shaken previously were now broken down; the forts lost all their protecting embankments, and several more Juoks were driven ashore, Masons are now in such request that they cannot be had without waiting for one's tura.
On the 30th, the French steamer Hanol pat in from Halphong short of coals. She cime very near being lost on her way up owing to an insufficiency of fuel. Having procured a small supply she attempted to leave on Sunday, the 1st, bat meeting the second blow antalde had to pat back and remain until Wednesday when, having secured more coal from the steamer Hongkong, she resumed her voyage.
The Danish steamer Ask came in from Hal- phong on Sunday, and the French steamer Hongkong from your port on Monday. Both had to remain until the blow subsided on Wedaca- day,
On Wednesday night the German steamer Deuterer from Singapore put in short of coals, she having had to burn all her loose woodwork to enable her reach here. She reported very bad weather outside.
While all the boats from both ways report trouble and delay, luckily we have so far heard of no serious casualties. Even the astive fishing boats appear to have been in safely, ne none are' reported lost.
As usual, whenever anything serious occurs, the telegraph line is reported broken and we have had no news from Hongkong since Sunday.
