On the 17th Instant I had the honour to report by telegraph two piracies of British owned launches which have occurred in my district since the date of the "Sainam" tragedy (13th July last).
I have now the honour to enclose copy of Acting Consul Pratt's report on the first of these which occurred at Tam Chuk a place near Pingnan and some fifty miles above Wuchow.
The launch "Wing Fat" (mand."Jung Fa") had on board a guard of five soldiers who were all shot and wounded by the pirates, and one of them fell into the river and was drowned.
The second case occurred near the landing stage of Yung Kee
