ROAST MISSIONARY.
Three Of tho Native Wesleyan Mtsstonaries
In NesS Britain Murdered and Eaten.

AHTSe ~ tne N0ttc0 HeSeet0n AtSSton6fte0
IN Nea1 Britain Murdered and Eaten.
Melbourne Argus.
Intelligence has been received from the44
Island of New Britain of the massacre, on
April 10, Of three native Wesleyan mission
agents, who were set upon and murdered,
and their bodies eaten by the mountain
tribes.
Eight of the teachers had expressed their
wish and determination to visit the interior
tribes of New Britain. They divided into
Two bands, IN order to cross the island at
different parts. Four of them started from
Blanche Bay, and the other four made the
northern side of the island tueir point Of
departure. The Blanche Bay party returned
next day to their point of departure.
The other four teachers also reached the
plateau in safety, interviewed the natives, and
were entertained for the night in one OF the
towns. A chief named Talili, who lived on
the low land, but who had influence in the
interior, sent a message to the town in
which the unfortunate teachers were
lodged for the night, beseeching
the tribe to kill them. When the
doomed men left the village the next morn
ing the people followed, and calling upon all
whom they met working in the plantations
by the way to join them in the deed of
blood, at length fell upon the unarmed, IN
suspicious teachers, and slew them in a say
age fashion.
The bodies were cut up, and the pieces
sent here and there to the. different towns,
where they were cooked and eaten with can
nibal ceremony and delight. The object of
thus distributing the bodies was to implicate
large number of towns in the massacre
customary device of savages. The Rev. Mr..
Brown, on hearing of the massacre, adopted
very severe reprisals, the character of which,
on the part of missionary, has been vari-
ously commented on by the Australian press.
An expedition was forthwith organized, and
the result of the reprisals was that at leas.
nifty, possibly more, of the cannibals were
Killed, and many of the towns and planta-
tons we're destroyed.
