EXPLOSION AT CANTON.

A terrific explosion at the gov
eminent gunpowder magazine at
Canton, occurred on the afternoon
of June oath. About five o'clock
the inhabitants of the Sam Tn Ii
district, in which the magazine
stands, were startled by tremen-
dous report which was heard over
large area and followed by
enormous volumes of smoke quite
darkening the sky in the immedi-
ate neighborhood. Every building
in the vicinity was completely
wrecked and in village on the
opposite side of the stream which
divided it from the factory, several
hundred houses were shattered.
The total number Of houses de-
stroyed is approximate at 400,
and although no idea has been
formed of the loss of life this must
be considerable, while it is estimat-
ed that 800 persons were more or
less injured. The catastrophe origi-
mated, it appears, from a cook house
near the magazine which caught
fire and rapidly spread to the dan
gerous material stored close by. On
hearing the explosion the inhabi-
tants of the villages rushed out in
great alarm and proclaimed the
disaster by the beating of gongs
and drums, urging the villagers to
run into the fields for their lives.
The mandarins were quickly in
formed and troops were sent for a
number of Chinese doctors and
one European were speedily on the
scene of the explosion rendering
assistance to the wounded.
BOLD PIRATES.
The native officials at Shanghai

the island of Taishan, and landing
body of men in chase was cap
tured by the pirates, who have
escaped with him into the hills. A
telegram having been received to
this effect on the 21st ult. by Tao
tai WI of Ningpo, this official start
ed the same day for Chinghal in a
gunboat for reinforcements and has
already proceeded to Ting hal with
two gunboats to consult with Gen

Bangkok are making every prepar-

are registering their property at H.

the notion Of realizing the value of
any property which may be burned

also decided upon employing armed
bands of Sikhs as a sort of safe

ed to intending Chinese immigrants
each month for the past three or
four months. Consul Simons re-
fused to certify two certificates, as

ostensibly having been in the Uni

showed, could not give any account
of the country and, in fact, declared
that "sedan chairs were the only
