The Do- tores Ugarte, living the obtained provisions and got rid of berlamasleable slook, proceeded on her way to Dallas. Between Maseo and the last-named port she lost, through various causes, no less than 270 of her hapless passen- gers. The general truth of these statements in attested by Mr. Consul Robertapa, of Can ton, in a despatch addreased to the Foreign Os in April last; and it is admitted that mány similar cases of infamous gruelty to Coo. lies occur.
Since the date of Mr. Robertson's despatch; whish giren as the intact information contained in the papere laid before Parliament, we have, however, heard more of the Dolores Ugarte. This vessel, after her disastrous voyage of last year, refitted at Hongkong early in the spring, exchanged the Salvadorian for the Peruvian Bog, astmed new name, the Don Juan, and put into Maono for another cargo of Coolies From the Fortngress barracoons she received her living freight, who seem to have either baen kidnapped or tempted by falsa representations to engage themselves. They were guarded still oore vigilantly than their wrelobed predecessors had been, but in vain. The vessel sailed from Masau cu the 4th of May last, and two daya after a fire broke out on board.
