forthediately the conspiracy was discovered several of the singlenders were arrested. When the arrests began many well-known mestizas dis- appested and evidently joined the rebels. The principal one among these'ls Andres Bonifacio, supposed to be vice-President ofthe Katipunan, and the one e schorge† with torchlag the natives the working of secret societies, and no one can say he has done his work badly. Whether thesa reste precipitated matters or not is so far unknown, but a few days after the first arrests were made a body of goo rehels endeavoured to enter Manila by the Santa Mesa Road (on the night of the 29th Augu) They were checked by the outposts of the Civil Palice, and retired to a hedge near the Sinta Mesa rope factory and waited in ambush until daylight. The police came up iten and attacked them. Infen- try toldlers came later to reinforce the police and the rebels were soon conquered, - lexylox many drad on the field, and many were taken pilsoners. This was the start of active warfare, The rext news that we received, shout two days later, was that the large majority of the natives in the provinces of Cavite and Batangas bad risen in arms, robbed all the arms from the tribunals of the different towns, killed several police officers, police, pilestr, and a number of Chinamen and strongly fortified themselves in the towns of Imur, Silang. San Francisco de Malabon, Novelets, and alc time the rebels rose in the province of Nueva Eds, where they killed some Spaniards, and robbed and burned the principal town. They were soon driven to the hills by the soldiers sent after them, but they have continually harassed the outposts by coming down in groups of 200 to 303 at night. to xitack, and retire when they find
resistance. This has been the plan of the rebels on all sides, and it would seem they came in the hope that the Indian troops would join them. The Indian troups have behaved admirably slace the beginning, and up to date. I don't suppore the iotal number of deserters teaches

As the American any, the asseverations of the sundry correspondeals. "make me lired," so I shall pass on to history. It would seem that some six to eight years ago several discontented natives put their heads together to devise a scheme for making the Philipplaes an inde-been so disposed as to encircle the rebels on all pendent republic. They formed themselves lalo a committee, and directed their labours chiefly among the Masons, a body orgualzed under the rules of Moroyla's mandary, which is distinctly antt-political. Many of the principal agitators made voyager to the different European countries, for the "good of the cause," and there is no doubt they there studied the workings of "secret nocleiies." They adopted the rules and regulallons of the Carbonart Society, al historical fame in Italy, and on s llaen formed the now fameus Kail uman. Kaliposan may be taken in free translation to mein League, The members of this Leagon according to thel grades and importance paid in monthly sub scriptions which varle from 214 cents towards, the purchase of EIGH and ammunition, and the constitution 0 their government. The Lagun grew larger and larger, owing to the active canvassing of His leaders, and it is simply astounding that nearly all the natives holding posts of confi. dence in the Government offices become mambers.
