It is a fact I am wholly unable to explain, ha-said, discussing the subject, but, notwith- standing, all the terrible slaughter constantly round me during the Mutiny, I lived in fear of the sight of cold blood. I cannot say I. bave sctually fainted at the sight of it, but my feelings in the calm events of life are such that I feel if you cut your finger in my presence,THE Company's Steamship I should be so overcome as to be unconscious, Yet here is the same officer, whose deeds of gallantry, when a lieutenant of the 320d, occupied nearly the two whole pages in Lieutenant-Colonel Kadilya and Major Elliott's joint volume, "The Victoria Crois Heroes."
I campos explain it, except it be that in the height of warfare a man's personal sensitive- bess is completely overshadowed, Though I shot many a rebel in the defence of Luck. Dow, and was several times smothered with the 'blood of mea killed beside me, yet I am too faint-beasted to see even an, animal led to the' slaughter.
"NAMSANG," having arrived from the above Ports, Consignees of Cargo by her are hereby informed that their Goods will be delivered from alongside,
This is the confession of an officer who re- ceived the Victoria Oross for a most daripg feat in gup spiking. The battery he had to carry contained two guns, the embrasures of which were closed with sliding shutters, and the
battery was protected by high palisades. Ho removed the shutters of one of the ombrasures 'sprang first into the battery, shot the sentry dead with his revolver, and both guns were spiked.
On one occasion, said the veteran, I was. working a gun when a bullet weat right through the head of the man on the opposite side of the breach. Ou another occasion I was commend. ing a position called Sheepwash, when a bullet came through the loophole and struck the man beside ma right in the neck. His blood gushed all over the. Yet I was quite calm and turbed in the discharge of my duty,
Cargo, impeding the discharge or remaining on board after 4 PM, the raih inst, will be. landed at Consignee's risk and expense. No Fire Insurance will be effected. Bills of Lading will be countersigned by

Fainting at sight of blood, writes a medical coriespondent, is due to impulsos, called into being by the emoticos, passing down the vagus nerves which coatrol the beat of the heart.
These men who fainted at the sight of blood were able to resist its effect in time of battle because in the excitement of the moment the brain had no space left for generating the excessive emotions which ordinarily led to the fainting.
All claims must be sent in to me on or before the 10th September, or they will not be re- cognized.
All damaged packages will ha axamined on MONDAY, the 70th September, at g P.M. No Fire Insurance has been affected.
