NEW PRISON FOR soERs.
Evidences That the British Government Is
Fitting Up an Island In Bermuda
for Captured Burghers.

Hamilton, Bermuda, April 3o.-There
is considerable excitement at present
in Bermuda over the expected arrival
of 1,7O0 Boer prisoners. The British
government has leased Darrell's is
land, one of the largest islands in the
sound, and within quarter of a mile
of Warwick shore, for one year. The
army officials are, as usual, very reti-
cent, and nothing can be learned from
them on the subject, but as the
blacksmiths of the town have been
sounded as to their ability to con-
struct several hundred yards of iron
fence, very strong, close, high and
with spiked points, very little doubt
is entertained as to the object in view
by the government. Bermudans are
not feeling very comfortable over the
matter. 1t is hoped that a very strong
force of European soldiers will be sent
with the Beers, or matters. it is
feared, may be as uncomfortable as
they were recently at st. Helena.
