THE MASSACRE OF CHRISTIANS AT SIDoE.-
The London Times contains an account of the
massacre of Christians at Sidon, in Syria
We extract as follows: -..s...
"The town of Dheir- ell Kamar, after defend
ing itself for eight hours, had surrendered to
Bechir Bey. the Druse chief who had besieged
it. Dheir-el- -kamar, unlike the rest of I.e-
banon, has, since 1870, been under the direct
government of the Sultan. 1t has Turkish
Governor and garrison of 800 regular troops.
During the siege, the Inhabitants had asked
him to defend them against the Druses, but he
said he could do nothing, and allowed the
Christians to defend themselves as best they
could. although his troops were quite strong
enough to beat Off the besiegers. But not a
shot did he fire. The Christians had to give
in. both on account of their ammunition fail
ing and also because the Druses had com
mand of the walls from the heifhts. The Gov.
ernor afterwards allowed the Druses to burn
one hundred and thirty houses of the Chris
tians. When we arrived, the actual fighting
was over, but the place was full of prowling
Druses, who plundered and murdered every
Christian on whom they could lay hands
The house of the Rev. Mr.. Bird, the American
missionary, was even more full of people than
Mr.. Calhoun's had been Bishops, priests,
men, women, chiIdren-all had sought and OBJ
tanned refuge with this family, who had, in
fact given up the whole of their house to the
fugitiyes." I'll 3
