DEATH OF BIR NICHOLAS JOHN HANNEN.

SHANGHAL, April 27th,

It is with extreme regret that we have to record the death of Sir Nicholas J. Hannen, which sad event took place just after eight defock last night. Sir Nicholas had been ill. for some time and for the last two weeks the state of his health has caused grave anxiety. At the commencement of this week his con- dition became very serious, and anxious en- quiries have been made day after day by many, both at his residence and at the Supreme Court, A few days ago it was thought an improvement had taken plice and a glimmer of hope, as to his ultimate recovery soon spread abroad, but the following day it was reported that he had had a gelapse during the night and on Wednes day his recovery was considered doubtful, Yesterday towards the end he became unconsci mus and about 8. 15 last evening he quietly passed wway. We do "ot know of one who was mort universally loved and respected in Chinaan Sir Nicholas, and it seems hard to realize that wo shall never see his kindly face and portly figure- again. It seems so sad too to think that his official labours were about to end and that next month he had intended to retire from the service he had served so well, and to enjoy the rest he had so honourably carned. We join with the whole of Shanghai in offering our sincerest sympathies to Lady Hannen and Miss Hannen as well as to the son and daugh- ler at home.

repelled, and the little band of hergés prepared

to sell their lives dearly. The resistance made was desperate as long as the ammunition lasted. They were twenty-four hours without food and without, water, exposed to the fierce tropical stonas, more exhausting even than the tireless bombardment of the enemy's big guns. The Irish soldiers and Colonial Volunteers bravely held their ground until at last their ammunition gave out, and then surrender became impera- tive to escape complete annihilation. The Boers, when making the remnant prisoners, expressed the highest pmise of the marvellous courage displayed during that fearful night.

The special correspondent of the Times, describing the ambuscade at the Water- works, says that Colonel Broadwood's men were driven into the drift like partridges to guns. The Boers directed the drivers to points to, which to take the waggons, in order to prevent a suspicious black. An eye-witness states that it was like entering a cloak-roont. The Boers politely took your fiffe, and asked you to step aside. Never was a surprise so skilfully planned or so thoroughly exécuted.

WAR NEWS BY WIRE.

LONDON, April 71h. The fact that the British force at Bloemfon tein is unable to cover a radius of thirty miles either unith or south, and also General Gata- ere's inability to trace the Bethulie Commanda after the Reddersburg reverse, prove the abso- lure breakdown of the cavalry. Indeed, e squadron is reported to have mustered only ve horses in condition. Fortunately, fresh amounts are now beginning to arrive at head parters in large numbers. Ten thousand horses, coming from South America, are expected to land at Cape Town this week,

It is alleged that General Olivier commanded. Afore of Hussars, which were travelling from Norval's Pond to Bloemfontein at the time, were diverted at Edenburg in order to assist. The result is unknown.

The newspapers speak in most deprecating terms of the lack of resource among the British officers generally, and demand that Lord Robrets should issue precise orders, enjoining field entrenchinents and adequate scouting. It is foreseen that the remainder of the cam- paign wil consist of small actions.

Reuter's despatch from Mafcking, dated the 27th Manth says that at sunrise to-day the enemy opened the most furious bombardment of the siege from seven guns including a Indred pounder. The Boers advanced to
