CAPTURE OF CHINESE PIRATES By ENG
LISlI AND AMERICAN BOATS.

The Hong. Kong tChina) Mail gives an interesting
account of battle between boat parties from the
English ship-nf.war Raulrr and the United States
naval steamer Powhsan, near kulan, in which eight
se.nrn ur marines were killed, and fifteen sixteen
wounded
Ten pirate junks were TAKEN md destroyed, and
seven prize vessels, previously captured by the p
rates, were liberated. The kagsh ship Rather tow.
FL by the steamer Eaclct. headed the attacking party
followed by three boats and hundred men from the
American steam !rigate. On arriving near the scen'
nf Dcnu th Rather manned - i' Il b''h''

kerry, clearing the decks "t tine two largest theu
boarding ami driving the pirates overheard ut the
point Of the bnyonrt. The latter fought with great
desperation. young American marine, named
AiamsOn, was shot through the groin.
Another accident was the blowing up OF n Junk
which lur II time had offered the most determined re-
ss;ance 10 the English gig, in which were Capt FEEL
loves and Assistant Surgeon Wilson, with five men,

scoundrnl fired the unk, for she blew up, with tree
mendous explosion and both officers ani men were
hurled into the water. Three OF the men were killed
and several Others frgh;tu!iy s"rched one of whom
died the night, while another is not expected To
live but the others miracuously escaped though Lieut.

the falling spars. Tho survivors were, however oil
picked up by Mr. Craig, masters mate nj the Pow

before the explosion took place. IT, this Junk was an

after the Americans gained the deck they were
