THE GREAT MASSACRE.

Empire, I'm the Southeast of Asia-The scene
of the Massacre.
A cable telegram published elsewhere states
that there has been an insurrection in the prin-
cipal city of Ava, resulting in the massacre of
14O0 Iersons. Ava is the name by which the
BuIman mpire in Southeastern Asia, adjacent
TO Hin dostan, is known and its principal city,
known under the same name, is situated on the
Irrawaddy river, $50 miles north of Rangoon.
On the 23d of March, 1889, every substantial
building in the city was demolished by an earth
quake. The houses generally are mere huts,
but previous to- the disaster of 1889 the city
contained numerous temples. The town e9Rslsts

of an outer and inner city, both fortified, and is
built upon an island formed by the Irrawaddy
on The north, and by branches of that stream on
all other sides except the southeast angle, where
IL is bounded by canal dug to defend that face
OF the city. The place is surrounded by brick
wall ten feet in thickness and fifteen and half
feet high, supported on the inner side by an
emoankment of earth, and on the outer by an
apology for ditch. The main wall, however,
is Kept in no repair, but the Government quar-
ter is specially defended by wall twenty feet
nigh, and a stockade of equal height,
which are kept in good repair, as the
people are much addicted to sudden
uprisngs and royal assassinations-in short, to
precisely such erneutes as this one just an
nounced, in which 1400 persons have fallen vic
Tins to their fury. By reason of changes in the
Government removals of the capitals, foreign
wars, and domestic discord, the population of
the city is constantly luctuating, being gene
rally found between 10000 and $4,000. For
eigners only are allowed to erect brick houses,
which are prohibited to the natives for fear they
will fortify themselves against the Government.
Mr.. Judson, the distinguished missionary, re-
sided in Ava many years. During the present
century there have been frequent revolutions in
the country, which has also waged two wars
against the British. Since the earthquake of
