ANENT the burning of the pilgrim ship Khoa, which fact was recently reported in our columns, the Madras Timer now states that the accident was due to the practice invariably prevailing on such occasions, namely, that of allowing the pilgrims to light their cooking firer upon deck. The Khiva having wooden tween-decks, it is supposed that, through negligence, the live charcoal used by the pilgrims found its way into the hold and Ignited the fudimmable portion of of the cargo. Anyone who has seen a pilgrim ship's decks alive with hundreds, of separate llule fires, and is acquainted with the criminal carelessness and ignorance. Inherent in the average native pilgrim, can quite conceive how easily this could occur, even with the best of supervision. It is to be hoped that this lasane practice will in future be strictly pro bibited. The terrible spectacle of some thou sand human beings, being burnt to death was only averted in the case of the Kiva by the prompt action of the Captain in running the

vessel ashore.

The Siamese left in a great hurry, by night, on bearing of our approach; we saw, scattered along the road, great numbers of bullock carts and all sorts of ihlags evidently abandoned by them in their fight. They took only five hours to reach here from Muong Phong, and immediately cressed the Sebang river, sinking or destroying the hosts behind them, and being compelled to leave all their impedimenta, as all their coolies had bolted in the confusion and darkurss.
