This action on the part of the British Government was a mutter of doop sorrow and regret to the whale of the foreign communities in Ubina; and they have bad good reason to deplor: it ever since.

Some of the war correspondents now in Tonquin have expressed themselves in terms of the highest admiration on witnessing the courage aud determination manifested by the Black Fiage apon the field of battle.
