WIRTH'S CIRCUS.

Hongkong, though ever ready to extend patronage to any good show that may happen along, has been for many months malaps the enjoyment supplied by a good chens company, and therefore the announcement that Wirth's Circus, which has been delighting hago aud!- ences in Japan and Shanghai, was to open hera for a short season was hailed with delight both by young and old, and the debut of the Company was awaited with considerable impatience. The sudden and very regrettable death of the genial proprieter a few hours before the arrival of the Kwangire on Monday last, leaving the whole troupe without their accustomed head, appealed to the instincts of the kind hearted, so these two causes combined to draw to the immense tent pitched alongside Jardine's Sogar Works, at East Point, an exceptionally large and thoroughly representative audience last night. Among those present were quite a number of the He of the Colony. The tent is pliched in spot where the wind from any quarter is felt, so the spectators get the full advantge of any breese that prevails. The arrangements for the comfort of the spectators are admirable, but good as they are some Improvements will be made that wil render the mammoth parilica a place from which the audience will withdraw somewhat reluctantly, and then only at the close of the last act on the programme.

LATE TELEGRAMS.

LONDON, June 20th.

All the morning papers make a prominent feature of the following telegrams, which Reater's Agency lesins have been despatched by the State Secretary of the South African Republic to the the Acting High Commissioner at Cape- town:—

"Telegram No. -I have the honour to acquaint Your Excellency, for the information of Her Britanate Majesty's Government, that, with a view to the wellare and peace of South Africa, this Government is convinced that the proofs in the possession and at the disposal of Her Pritannic Majesty's Government now com- pletely Justify and compel the bringing to trial of Mesa, Cec Rhodes and Alfred Belt, and Dr. Rutherford Harris, as has already been done with Dr. Jameson and his accomplices. In the interests of all South Africa, this Govern- mest feels itself obliged to press the taking of this step upon Her Britannic Majesty's Gorera- ment. I have niso the honour to request Your Excellency to communicate this despatch by cable to Her Britannic Majesty's Government in London.

Boccacio thus describes some of the symptoms of the plague at Florence In 1348 -" There appeared cestain tumours in the groin or under the arm plt; some as big as an apple and others as an egg; but they generally died the third day from the first appearance without may fever o bad circumstances attending.”

Near Yong Chang Captain Gill's Informant sald that during July, Aegust, and September more than 1,000 people died of this complaint, and a traveller who passed through the stricken district said there was scarcely an fababliant left, and that dead bodies were lying about an- burled, every one who could fir from the neigh hood baring done so. The diacase moved from one place to another.

We have no doubt that the black plague of London In the 17th century was somewhat similar in character and results. But evidently certain parts of Chias have been constantly cursed with it and it is sincerely to be hoped that freer Intercourse with Calas in the future my not lead to the introduction of the disease Into Burma va Bhamo.

What the plague la Hongkong has to do with all this one may well be at a loss to comprehend.
