After a long discussion, in which Dr. Cantlie advocated the reporting of all cases of disease believed to be infectious, the following resolution, proposed by Mr. Francis and seconded by the Registrar-General, was adopted :" That in the opinion of this Committee they cannot usefully proceed with the by-laws in their present

form and that they so report to the Board."

Mr. Francis said that at the next meeting he

would be prepared to submit two or three reso- lutions embodying the opinions that had been expressed.

In reply to Dr. Cantlie it was stated that Dr. Manson's paper on beri-beri had been circulated amongst the members and some replies had been received to the questions which Dr. Cantlie Lad suggested should be sent out on the same subject.

The papers were ordered to be laid on the table ni the next meeting,

#:

Dr. Cantle mentioned that Dr. Manson's paper was one that he had written for a medical society, and the Registrar-General said there was a Chinese pamphlet on beri-beri which was being translated.

The question of the necessity of asking the consent of the writers of papers to their publica- tion having been raised, Mr. Francis said that when information was given to a public body, unless a request to the contrary was expressed, it was understood it might be communicated to the public.

Dr. Cantlie was requested to look through the papers and prepare a digest, which he consented to do.

It was proposed that the Board adjourn for a fortnight.

Dr. Ho Kal said he thought they should meet the following week and get on with the by-laws as fast as possible. The small-pox season was just beginning.

The Registrar-General reminded members that compulsory vaccination was at present going on. The Board then adjourned til Thursday, the 15th instant

the city is particularly quiet since the fight. We can give no information as to the actual nymber of dead and wounded. It will be same time before that is known; but from what we can learn some 50 men and two or three wamen would be about the number.

We are informed, that, the proclaimed king, Matanfa, has sent a despatch to the German Consul or the captain of H.I.M.S. Adler, asking them to remove the marines from Mulionu Point, and also a request to haul down Tamasese's flag. which is still flying at the Point. We have not heard what answer, if any, has been returned,

The two warships in the harbour (German and American) maintained perfect neutrality A report is also abroad during the conflict. that Matanfa threatened that if Tamasese's flag is not hauled down he would attack This action we hope will be the Point. deferred, for, should the captain of the Adler decline to remove his men from Mulinnu, any attempt made in that locality might create serious entanglements with the German Govern- ment. We trust that Mataafa's advisers will use their influence to induce him to pause before attempting such a dangerous course. Mataafa has now asserted his power as far as his own people are concerned, and any meddling with any of the Great Powers would be decidedly to his disadvantage. He would more than likely lose more than he has now gained by such a step,

An immediate attention to the afairs of Samoa is now of paramount importance. Too much blood has already been spilt, and to prevent further bloodshed it is imperative on the Great Powers to arrive at a settlement of our affairs,

The wounded who were brought in to Apin were attended by the surgeons of 1.1.M.S. Adler, U.S.A. war ship Adams, and Mr. Smith, a me dical gentleman who is here on a visit. Their valuble services were willingly given, and many lives have probably been saved by them; We also noticed that the Brothers of the Catholic Mission were industrious in rendering all the assistance in their power to the poor sufferers. But when were those gentlemen ever wanting when their services. were required in aid of the sick or distressed ?

NOTICE.

MELANCHOLY DEATH OF CAPTAIN BISSETT. Captain Bisselt, of the schooner Vinder, expressed a desire to go to the British Consulate. which is situate at the east end of Apia and immediately in front of the position taken up by the war party. Mataafa'a army were maneuvring to cut off the Government soldiers; the firing on both sides was necessarily of a straggling character, the ground being of a scrubby nature; the bullets were dying in all directions, some penetrating the dwelling houses of Mr. Carruthers, Mr., Catfield, Mr. Smith (harbour master), and others, all of which are within a few hundred yards of the British Consulate. When near the residence of Mr. Carruthers several shots passed close to where Captain Bissett and his com- panions were travelling. They hurried to the dwelling-house, and as soon as Captain Bissett placed his foot upon the steps of Mr. Carruthers' verandah he received a bullet in his temple, which passed out through his brain. He was seen to raise his hand to his head, and then fall on his back. His death must have been almost instantaneous. Mr. Deyerlen, one of the persons who accompanied Captain Bissett in his attempt to reach the Consulate, hastened to Apia to convey the intelligence of Captain Bissett's death. His other companion, Mr. Adam Main, with the assistance of Mr. Caruthers and Mr. Lawrence, conveyed the body under cover, and as quickly as possible" procured, a boat and carried the body to the schooner Vindse, which was at anchor some 400 or 500 yards off The funeral of the late captain took place at half-past 10 o'clock next morning, about 100 white residents of all nations, and about so half- castes attending. The burial services were conducted by the Rev. W. H. Wilson in a most impressive manner. Captain Bissett was held ih great respect by the people of Samoa. He was of a most obliging disposition, and well known in Fill, where he was some yeats master of the EHOLDERS are hereby etes their schooners Falcon and Albatross. There remains no doubt in the minds of the white population of the town that Captain Bissett met his death solely by accident. By which party the bullet was fired it is impossible to tell." -

The Samoa Timer gives the following par ticulars of the battle fought on September 12th- About the end of August last the adherents of the deposed King Malicton and other natives who for some time have shown disaffection to the new King, Tamasese, most of whom never acknowledged him as King, and who were quietly making preparations for a revolt, came into contact with the Government party near Apia. The struggle then was a short one, lasting about one hour, resulting in about four or five killed and wounded on both sides. Since then the opposition party have been gaining strength both in numbers and armament. They are well supplied with really efficient rifles and ammu. rition. Their arrangements for war preparation seemed to be of a superior description. They erected forts of a formidable nature, which some of the men-of-war officers in harbour declared to be impregnable to attack from their present opponents. They also erected several small for- tifications, but the fort of Faleula was evidently intended to be their stronghold. Numbers were daily pouring in to increase their ranks. Food was constantly sent for and received, their women being particularly active in procuring supplies. The strength of their fighting men may be fairly estimated at not under 4,000 or 5,000. They then notified their desire

fight the Government soldiers, and made no secret of the time they intended for the attack. Captain Leary, of the U.S. A. war-ship Adams, visited their stronghold, some four or five miles from the town, and seemed surprised at such a number of well-conducted men, their war arrangements in so short a time and under difficult circumstances being really good. He held a talk with their chicls, who seemed determined to fight, and in fact told Captain Leary that they would die before they would give in to Tamasese. Captain Leary told them he had no intention to interfere in native quarrels. He had nothing whatever to do with their disagreements, nor could he advise them on such a subject, but he told them distinctly that the former recognised rule with reference to the white population must be strictly adhered to; that is, that in no case whatever must the lives or property of the foreign residents be meddled with, for should such unfortunately ocour he would be compelled to make reprisals. The natives through their chiefs assured Captain Leary that if any of their people attempted the lives or property of the foreign residents they would be beheaded. Astrict atten- tion to this was already a rule amongst them. The nativesseemed highly pleased with Captain Leary, and wished to give him military honours, which Captain Leary, however, declined, Shortly after wards Mataafa was chosen as their king at their fort of Faleula, and on Wednesday, September 12th, a section of their party numbering about 500 men attacked the Government soldiers at Matautu, close to the town of Apia. The action commented by an attack on one of Tamusese's forts, the rifle roar being distinctly heard through the city, some of the bullets striding the vessels in the harbour, and it was reported that one of the crew. of H.L.M.S. Adler was wounded in the mouth by an erratic bullet. Such a roll of musketry was never before heard in Samoa. It was really terrific. From the commencement of

NOTICE.

The Apia correspondent of the New Zealand Herald, writing on the civil war in Samoa, says: "Probably the greatest cause of dissatisfaction has been the attempt lately made by Tamasese to obtain the name of Malietoa. He has had bestowed upon him lately, nearly all the royal names of consequence in the island, but all these count as nothing alongside the one Malieton; hence the strenuous effort he and his advisers are making to obtain it. It has been lang known by those intimate with Malietoa's people that if Tamasese dared to assume the name of Malictos they would break out at once¡| in open rebellion. Tamases has not yet assumed that name, but there are strong indica- tions that he intends doing so soon, and this is one reason why the Malietoa party have advantage of the ill-advised action of the presentHE Goremment in provoking a war in the way they have done."
