Some of the nngleaders were flogged, while others were placed in irons. At four o'clock the nel day the in- terpreter reported to the chief mate, Mr. F.

At a quarter past 5 o'clock the codlies revolted aud bioke up the sleeping benches, into which they had driven knives, spades and Iwo cutlasses taken fiom the men on guard. The crew fired upon them, and, after about 30 had been shot, the captain called upon them to surrender. They refused and set fire 10 some stuff in the hold of the ves» wel, probably thinking thut the crew weuld rush down the hatchway to extinguish it, giving the coolies below a chance to go upon deck and jon their comrades. The fire rapidly increased, and the coolies again 1efused to surrender. Twa boats were lowered and swamped} but a third was lowered in safety and several of the crew got into it and put oft from the skiip's side. The captain, mate and supercargo were saved by swimming to one ol the swainped boats, from which they were taken by the otew in the third boat lowered; but the dooter, storekeeper, interpreter, and several others of the crew perished. At 10 o'clock that night the vessel blew up, the fire having reached that part of the hold in, which eight thousand buxes of Chinese fire crackers were stowed and all those on board perished. re A er a--" A WARNING TO QUACKS.
