fBy Anglo-Arnsrican cable TO the Dspatch.l
CaIcUITs, March s1.--Ofieial dispatches
received here by Government officers con-
firm thereport of the massacre Of Ghoorkas
at Manipur, in the Province OF Assam,
where about 470 of these native soldiers
were slain by hostile tribesmen of Assam
after two days desperate fighting.
The fate Of the British officers who were
in command of the Ghoorkas, and or
Chief-Commissioner James w. Quinton,
who was conducting negotiations at
durbar for the arrest Of prominent chief
who bad been instrumental IN deposing
the Kalah of Manipur, Is still uncertain,
but the Viceroy of India. the Marquis OF
Lansdowne, believes that oil the oincers
and officials have either met death az the
hands OF the rebellious tribesmen OF As
sam, OF that they are held as prisoners.
FURTHER HORROR
In addition 20 the disaster at Manipur, 1t
is believed that force of British troops,
composed of q detachment of soldiers OF
the Bengal infantry and about eighty
Ghoorkss, who were marching IRON Shll-
long to Manipur in order to reinforce the
Forty-second and Thirty-second Ghoorka
light infantry, which comprise the escort
OF Chief Commissioner Quinton, have also
been attacked and have shared the tate OK
their comrades at Manipur. Tho Bengal
infantry detachment and the eighty Ghoor-
kas, 1t appears, were set upon by the ASA
nese or native troops referred TO WINE
they were passing through a difficult and
dangerous passage, and though they tought
CALAMITY against heavy odds, the reoel
tribesmen, from the advantageous positions
which they occupied on the sides OF the
pass aud ahead and behind the Britlsh
forces, poured such destructive hre INTO
the ranks of the Bengalese and Ghoorkas
that the latter are said to have been killed
10 a man.
Tho Yiceroy is hurrying troops into the
Province of Assam in order to punish
the hostiles. Reinforcements OF troops
are also being sent into States located
in proximity 10 Assam in order to pre-
vent any possible disorder OF warlike OUT
break which it is thought might follow
the spreading of the news of the massacre
Of the British troops at Manipur.
APARTY OF TWELVE ESCAPE.
Fifteen fugitive Ghoorkas who have
reached Kohima report that Mr.. and Mrs.
Grimwood, Colonel Skene. and Mr.. Slmp-
son escaped into Cachar, where the natives
are becoming restless. The party included
twelve Europeans. IL is surmlsed that
Qunton was seized at Mr.. Grimwoods
house, which was four minutes distant
from the cantonment of the main Ghoorka
guard at Langthabat, and that lO,OOO IT.
regular Kuki levies in the service OF the
Manipur Government were ordered 10 al
tack and massacre the troops.

THEIR ERROR
The elections will soon open their eyes
10 their deplorable error. Kllkennys lead
will be followed all over Ireland. Some

cry of dictation against the bishops and
