At Singapore the other morning, a serang of the 1.9. African Prince, was before Mr. Col-

The defamation consisted in writing that Mr. Malbews, the chief engineer, had demanded from him Rs. 250, or threatened to discharge him; the extortion arose out of his taking a half month's pay, Rs. 13, from the tindal under a threat of making the place hot for him. The case was not concluded when the mail left.
