During this time General Black never said one word about military objections, and the consent of the Government was obtained the opening stone being lald in General Black's presence. It was not antil later on when he became Governor-hat he tried to get the money to go on with slit road in another part of the Colony, and it was only on finding that he could not got the money for this purpose that he brought up these military objections, He thought also that before he went away he left a communication for his successor in which he made strong representations against the road from Kennedytown being made, on military grounds. No one could be surprised that when the new Geneal arrived here he would not care to disagree with his predecessor in a matter of this sort. It was hardly to be expected he would He would have licen in a very awk ward position and he done so, and he thought the one thing for the committee to do was to report the whole thing to the Secretary of State for the Colonies, to state exactly what General Hack had done,
and to request the Secretary of State for the Colonies in consider the question with the advice of the military experts besides Genoral Black. He would like to put this in the form of a nbtion.

Only five of the dead have so far reached San Fernando de la Pampanga, and thirty wounded. The dead and wounded of the 36th Infantry are at Bacolor.
Yesterday things were rather quiet but the boys expect to advance to Tarlac to-day. Owing to the country roads being two to three feet deep in mud the boys find their work hard along the line, as the Light Artillery can't advance.

The Chairman said, that as far as they knew, from the legal Juminaries on the. Executive Committee they could not use the money for any other purpose than that mentioned in the resolution. They had heard Mr. Fung Wah Chun, who was the honorary treasurer for the Chinese subscriptions and collected large sums. of money, that he collected most of the money on the promise that it would be partly for, the Road in question

It is probable that the crew and passengers of the steamer will arrive in Manila to-day or Comorrow, as they are free to go where they please unmolested.

Plans of Manila and its suburbs with the various barracks and guard, house, and other charts were found on their persoas, and other papers signed by insurgent officers. A sergeant of the 16th Infantry took the prisoners to the Central Station an Calle Anda, Intramuros, and the charts, maps, and other papers were seat in to the Provost 'Marshal General's office. These individuals are be lieved to be brothers and answer to the name of Acquilla.

FURTHER DISCOVERIES. The important capture effected yesterday by and Santos Janiza of the insurgent army and the Binondo police of Colonels Gif Banintia their two orderlies Pvts. Juan Javier and Moneda Gregorio, has created considerable stir in official circles. The capture is of especint importance as it is a general supposition that these insurgents are in the city for the purpose of stirring up strife and dissension between the Filipinos and Chinamen. Secret information is in the hands of the authorities that implicate the prisoners in several bold filibustering, reatures. The evidence at present is so incom plete that little or no information can be gleaned from those who know what there is in be known. There was an officer by the name of Colonel Jamiza who figured promis nently in the fight before Guingua when Gol Stotzenberg of Nebraska was killed. It is said that Jamiza had command at Guingua at the
his troops in such a manner that the Americans were forced to fall back until the artillery cars up. Possibly the prisoner is the officer of Guingua fase Jamiza has been sent le Fort Santiago. The others still remain at Binondo station.

NEWS FROM THE FILIPINO SIDE. THE FILIBUSTER BOAT.
The following data is afforded by the Fade péndencia:-
The boat with two Englishmen that arrived on the locos cuast during July is now at Sarlee Ilocos north. According to the data given the names of the men are Sinley and Insota (McKinley and Mackintosh) and they state they left Hongkong on July 16th last. Roth, the men are well treated by the natives, but the boat is utilized for official purposes
MARINE HAS RETIRED.
Decadent Aden.
The statement is confidently made at Aden that the British Government has decided to appoint a British Consul for Sana, the capital of Yemen,
the step is viewed as part of a plan for lifting men on the Persian Gulf Among commercial mon Aden from the mercantile decay into which t has fallen of late years to an extent causing serious apprehension.
It is hoped that a British Consul at Sana would be able to divert much of the caravan trade from the Turkish Red Sea ports to Aden. On this account, and also because the proposed new consulship is viewed with suspicion as foreshadowing political intervention by Great Britain in the internal affisirs of Yenien, the Turkish Government will probably offer such resistance as may be possible.
at present no Europeans established at Sana, According to the Stampa, of Turin, there are
except one or two Greek shopkeepers. The only European who ever carried on trade to any extent in the country was Signor Capiatti, having made a sufficient fortune, returned an Italian, who resided there for 15 years, and,. recently to Italy. In his view there are large commercial possibilities in Yemen, if the pro- vince can once be rescued front its chronic snarchy.
