THE Bys men originally charged with an saulting Man Apan, a jusshouse keeper at Ap Li Chau, Aberdeen, on the 20th January, but who were, after hearing avid. ence, charged with the greater crime of the manslaughter of Man Apan's child, which was said to have died through injuries received in the saint, were to-day dis-
charged on the application of Inspector Bremner, who stated that he had no further. evidenes to bring against the defendanta ; the finding of the jury at the inquest hold yesterday having precluded the charge of manslaughter being procvuded with:
THE soaman, Michael Carrol, who niet with serious injuries in falling from a plank kajd between the edge of the Sum Shui Po Dock/ and the British ship Hindestan, on Sunday evening, still lies in a very precarious condi- tion at the Government Civil Hospital. There is now little hope of his recovery, as blood hai oozed constantly from the nese and mouth since lus adinission; and though not issuing in so large quantities 55 at first, still slowly proceeds and has reduced the unifortunate aan to a state of extreme debility. Carrol had been indulging free! in liquor during Sunday, and was in an inebriated condition when the accident happened.
The rumours which have so often been sirculated concerning the changes in the Oocidental and Oriental steamers on this aide the water appear to gain more definite akape, for we hear that the Adriatic and Coptic, two of the Atlantic vessels botonging to the Whito Stae line, may soon be ex- pected to increase the O. & O. flict on the Pacific route. These fine ships are con- siderably larger than the Oceanic, now in harbour; and if, as we are informed, the Belgic and Gaelic are not to be withdrawn,
the increase in the tonnags on the San Francisco route will be very raaterial, and, it need scarcely be added, of the highest ' quality, Considering the growing trade from and to America, and in view of the
fact that facilities of communication are the surest guarantee for further expansion, the news of this intention on the part of the 0. & O...Go may well be received with satisfaction. It is said that one of the steamers named will leave Liverpool for
