Intelligence from Yingkow states that a certain junk bound for that port was attacked by pirates hall way on its journey from Tientsin.

The weather has been wami bere during the p week, Wednesday last was said to be the hottest day this year, yet it was what you in Shanghal would consider a cool and pleasant day. A good deal of rain has fallen lately and the country on the biher side of the river, between here and Tungku, ls greatly fooded. Some three miles above the latter place the country is one vast lake and boats. are placidly sailing where in ordinary times the picturesque but terribly uncomfortable northern cart is the means of locomotion. The floods, which are caused by the faulty embankments of the river, reach up to the mad rampart below Tientsin, but none has come Inside nor is it likely that it will now this year. The use of the railway as a flood barrier has been amply proved this year and the country people on the right side of the track have more seasons than one to the north rant section of the line is progressing rapidly and at the present rate the snort of the engine will be heard in another eighteen months by the goat herd who tends his flocks at the foot
