PUNISHMENT OF A PlnArE.-Thc
annexed horrible statement is copied
from the Singapore Free Press:
About fortnight ago, noted pi-
rate, named l'nnglima Assam, was tax
cn into custody by one of the Raalls
residing ut RIiio. This man had been
concerned III some recent piratical pro-
ceedinss, and when before the Ra jnh
in question, threatened to kris him
This would appear to have filed up the
measure of his offence, Tor he was i'm
rnediatel seized by the Malays present,
and strongly bound. So far the pro-
cccdings were proper enough but what
followed was of SO cru | and revolving
Il nature that we hcsitatcd much in be-
licv!ng it when first related to us. 1t
has been repeated to us however, so
cIrclimstantially, by various persons,
that we are forced to think that it is
true. Panglima Assam, having been
firmly bound, was literary crucificd;
his hands, arms and feet being t;.stcn-
ed to posts by numerous nails lis
teeth were knocked or pulled out, and
he was otherwise maltrcatcd. lie is
said TO have existed in this state for
five or six days, and was only ut last
krsscd, on Il request being made by
the Dutch authorities that he should
be given up to them. What led to
this revotrg treatment we have not
hard, and it appears incredible that
the Dutch authorities should allow it
TO be prrpctratcd if they were cogni-
zant Of it. They probably did not
know any thing about the affair until
it had been accomplished.
