There were two such severe shocks as to make me doubt whether the ship had taken the ground or not. The lead, however, non- vinced me that this was unlikely. Never the cracking of partitions, and the bumping theless, the shaking of chains and rudder, of the ship as if in a short bead-sua, startled all on board. The ship was heading south; and as there was pitching, but no rolling, the earthquake must have travelled in

THE WRONG MAN,

Wo A-yau, a boarding house runner, was charged by P.0. No. 79 (Smith) with obstructing the fairway and boarding the 8.8. Patroclue at 6.30 am. this morning. The constable stated that defendant was in a hired boat which got in the way of the steamer, and that defendant repeatedly tried to get on board the steamer although warned not to do so by the people on board. The defendant was discharged, Mr Francis ruling that the master or owner of the boat, and not the passenger, was the proper person to be obarged; being on board a stermer against the will of the owner or master was merely a civil trespass and not a criminal offence.

FORD OF SODA.

Fung A-fat, a coolie, was charged with stealing a bottle of Soda-water the property of Mr William Young, and being at large in the streets this morning before gunfire without a light and pass. Prisoner ad- mitted stealing the Soda-water, but said that being a servant of the Bakery Company be was out delivering bread. He was ordered to bo exposed in the stocks for hours for the first offence, but was discharged on the second having a reasonable excuse.

It is with great regret that we record the death of Mr W. M. Boss, who expired after a sudden illness of about six hours. He was an old resident of Nagasaki, and had for some years past been engaged in business as a barber. Many of his old customers and friends will be sensible of his loss, and his death will leave another blank in the Settle- meat. He died on Monday morning about 1.0 a.m. and was interred at the cemetery in the afternoon of the following day.—

Those who are interested in the completion of the dock at Tategami will be glad to hear that the temporary wooden dam, rendered necessary by the accidental flooding of the dock which happened on the last day of June, has been successfully placed in posi- tion, and that the erection of the shores has been commenced. It is hoped that in a few days this will be completed, when the water will be pumped out of the dock, and the esisson which now lies on its side at the bottom will be restored and repaired. So that we look forward to a short time only elapsing before this magnificent work may be said to be finished.

An article in the Amoy Gazetta alates that petroleum or rook oil is obtainable at many places in both North and South For mosa. In April, 1865, a large spring was discovered in the hills South East of the part of Owlan, in Lat. N. 24° 50′ and Long. E. 121 or thereabouts. The principni spring in these parts is situated on the edge of the Owlon River some 5 or 6 miles inland from the town of Babli, the last town or village on the borders of any importance; it is also at the very foot of a hill.
