No. 4367.-JUNE 30, 1877.]
Manila.
(From the Manila Papers.) The third engineer of the steamer Salta dora named Robert Thompson, was found dead in his cabin-on the night of the 12th June. The unfortunate man only entered the service of the steamer on that day, The deceased took his meals as usual and retired to his cabin by night-time. It appears that the first engineer returned on board about 11 p.m., and proceeded to call the deceased, but as no sewer was heard, he entered the deceased's cabin and struck a matoh, when he discovered him quite dead. According to an enquiry held on the 18th, the deceased is said to have died from heart disease.

On the 20th instant, a public meeting was held at the Club, "to consider the best stops to be taken to induce the native authorities to dredge the river, stop the discharge of ballast from junks, and other precautions towards kcoping the channel of the river clear. Mr W. Paterson occupied the chair, and in the course of a few introductory remarks, reminded the meeting that the present was a most appropriate time to again bring forward this important and ever- recurring question. They had all witnessed the havoo caused by the inundation then subsiding.

The Chairman concluded

A committee of six was accordingly appointed; and the meeting terminated with the usual vote of thanks to the Chairman.
