On Wednesday England learned that a Are
had broken out IN the back premises Of the
Empire. The Sultan Of Zanzibar had died
suddenly, probably from poison, and his
nephew Khalid, whom we had distinctly
refused to recognize as his heir, had seized
the Palace, filled it With armed men, pro-
claimed himself Spltan, and defied the British
authorities. Prompt measures were at once
taken, and rs soon us Admiral Rawson had
arrived in his flagship the st. George, the
gunboats 'Ra coon, Sparrow, and Thrush
took mp a position commanding the Palace.
An ultimatum was sent to the usulper at 7
o'clock ON Thursday morning warning him that
Anless he surrendered before 8 o'clock the
ships would open fire Khalid, however,
stood firm and at 8 o'clock pre- cisely the guns
began to fire, and were answered by heavy
fire from the Palace. After thirty-seven
minutes, however, the Palace was reduced
to ruins; and its occupants fled. During the
fight the Spltan's steamer, the 'Glasgow.'
fired on the flagship, and was promptly sunk
in reply. Before reducing the Palace five
hundred marines and bIueiackets had been
landed, and these aud seven hundred loyal
native troops kept things quiet on shore. A
great many of Khalid's followers we're killed,
but we had only one casualty,-a petty officer
of the Thrush badly wounded. The ships were
not much damaged, though the Thrush was
hit sixty-two times and the 'Racoon' sixteen
times. Khalid fled to the German Consulate,
but has not yet been given up. The latest
news is that Hamud, the heir recognised by us
has been proclaimed Sultan. Ais well that
ends well, but as we have said elsewhere, we
trust that the farce of keeping a puppet Sui
tan will be put an end to as soon as possible
by annexation. A farce which involves the
maintenance Of slavery is not worth play
