VICEROY'S ACTIVITY.

According to Shanghai exchanges, tele. graphic news has been received from Wuchow, Kwangsi, to the effect that Viceroy Tiên finds matters in that province in such a mess through incapability of Governor Wang Chih-ch'un and the former Commander-in-chief of Kwangsi, General Su Yuan-ch'uo (Marshal Su) that the Viceroy has denounced the two to the

roads and highways in that region are crowded with refugees hastening to quieter scenes. This, of course, is just what the local banditti wish as it gives them exceptional opportunities to plunder the refugees. Later dispatches further tate that it is freely reported in Ch'angsha, the provincial capital of Hunan, that the city of Yungming has fallen into the hands of the Kwangsi rebels, and that the city of Linling is momentarily expected to surrender also. The Government troops opposing the rebels number over 2,000 men, but being greatly inferior to the rebels not only in numbers but also in

firearms, they dare not leave the protection of the city walls to fight the invaders.
