house of commons, later, that the government
had received further advices. Gen. Burrows
brigade numbered between 1900 and 5000
men. The army under Ayoob was stronger
than was expected, consisting of l6, 600 men end
thirty-six guns well served. Strong reinforce

would perhaps be necessary to send troops

the report of Gen. Burrows force consisting of
a battery of English artillery, and a battalion
of the sixty-sixth British infantry.
He said he did not know
what force Gen. Primrose had at Candahar in

thoughti it probably not over 1000 strong, but
when Gen Burrows brigade was detacted, some
of Gen. Phagre's troops were ordered to re-en-
force Candahar. If this reinforcement was
effectual Gen. Primrose's forces would perhaps
exceed 1910. Lord Harrington further stated
he had received dispatch from the viceroy of
India saying Gen. Burrows had been seriously
defeated, and Gen. Primrose had vacated his
cantonments, at Candahar, and returned to
the citadel. Reinforcements are on the way
and will be pushed forward as rapidly as DOS.

San Francisco, July 2s. Portland dispatch:
Mr. Henderson, chief engineer of the Oregon
Railway and Navigation company's steamers,
authorizes the following statement to Edison's
electric light as employed on the New Columbia
on her passage from New York to Port
land. The light as applied in the sa-
loon and staterooms gives perfect
satisfaction and came up TO all expectations.
An exhibition was made at Rio Janeiro and at
tracted much public notice. At sea in all
kinds of weather the vibration, jars, and gen.
eral working of the steamship did not inter-
fere with its operation and in fact made no
impression on the light. When required the
simple operating Of steam valve is all that is
necessary to light mp the ship instantly. The
ordinary skill of the engine roonhis sufficient
to keep the light in running order.

l FnlSe Alarm


Yesterday at noon st. Paul was greatly ex-
cited by report that the fire at Hastings had
broken out again, and was spreading with great
rapidity, and that assistance had been asked of
the st. Paul department.. Convincing proof
of this second disaster was furnished by the
appearance of steamer and two hose carts
being driven with all speed to the depot of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad.
Shortly after, the fire apparatus returned to
their quarters, and it soon became known that
the department had been called out by q mis-
take.
The facts in relation to this mistake are that
Yesterday morning. through some overnight in
the telegraph office, a duplicate of the message
sent Chief Strong and received here at 2:25
A. M, asking for assistance, was given mes
senger boy for delivery. Not finding Chief
Strong in his Office, the messenger boy returned
the dispatch and along about II o'clock in the
forenoon started for the Forth street residence
of the chief to deliver it. The chief while in
the lower part of the city, heard that the mes
senger had gone to his house with call for
assistance from Hastings, and appreciating that
time is everything in such an emergency,
ordered out the machines, without waiting to
see the messenger. OF course as soon as he
saw the mistake the order was countermanded.
As it happened, no real injury was done, but
had there been fire at Hastings, the whole city
might have burned while the telegraph meseen-
ger was carrying the call for help around the
city in his pocket, when word might have been
got to the chief in five minutes, by informing
any policeman or any fireman of what was
wanted.
