A Sine ON FIRR.—SoCTHAMPTON, APRIL 27.—
The steamer La Plata. arrived here from the West bale'',
saw a ship of apparently 700 tons, and cost laden, on fire
night of 19th of March, in 21 N. 12 W. La Plata kept
near her until daylight on the 20th, when the ship hail
burnt to the water's edge. No boats were seen, and as
several yards had pursed to the southward on the previous
evening it waa supaised the crew had been saved.
THE COAffr GVARD.—It appears that the value
of wrecked property saved by this useful and gallant body
of men amounts for the year 1859 to a sum of upwanls of
500,0031., and the number of persona rescued by them from
n watery grave during the same period to no less than 1,2150.
The total charge for the crud-guard force provided for in
the estimates for the past year was 724,93.
COLONIAL Poirr-orricm.—The expediency of
calling upon the colonies to manage their own post-offices
has been affirmed. Afterthe Ist of Mar (or the Ist of June
in Jamaica) the British Past-office will no longer have di-
rection of any colonial post-offices, except those at the mi-
Staff stations of Gibraltarand Malta.— Cell Sermee fla:elle

Millwall, lISUI received a considerable order from the Sar-
dinian government for his patent fire engines. Six of the

Lenox, chain cable and anchor makers to the Admiralty,
were yesterday shipped at Gravesend on board the Barildo
for Sardinia.
COCHIN CHlNA.—lntimation has been given of
the opening of the port of Saigon, in chin China, to trade,
under the protection of the French Co
authorities. A harbour
due of two ibillars per ton is charged on all vessels, which
exempts from duty on imports or exports with exception
of opium, which is charged at 20 per cent. ad rotor, se.
The blockade of the rest of the coast is still rigorously main-
tained.—London and China Telegraph.
