(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 2.)
LONDON, Sept. 1. - Dispatches from
Batavia report that fears of further erup-
tions in Java have subsided, and all
efforts are now concentrated on the bu-
rial of the corpse*, which thickly strew
the coast. The acids of vapors issuing
frost fissures in the divided mountains
have caused unusually rapid decomposi-
tion. There are exposed parts of great
rocks at the summits of seven peaks. A
number of them split apart suddenly on
Wednesday, releasing many tons of de-
pending earth. This caused several
huge landslides, which carried destruc-
tion and death on the edge of the town
of
Narra. Fifteen Chinese in that sec-
tion of the Sanitary Corps were buried.
A vessel which attempted to enter the
Straits of Sunda on Wednesday, had a
hole stove in icor bow.
So serious are the changes in the coast,
and the entire formation of the Straits
of Sunda, that the British Government
and the Lloyd's yesterday evening tele-
graphed from London to all foreign
points warning vessels that navigation
of these waters had become exceedingly
dangerous.
`Yesel't(:roe, Sept. 1. --The United
States ships Juniata and Enterprise, now
at Singapore, have beon ordered to the
Straits of Sunda to examine Into the con-
dition i f attain there.
AwatcttnAll, Sept. 3. --It is believed
that :90,000 persons perished in North
Domain in the recent calamity. It is
also believed that the garrison and fort
at Aejler wen r *opt away. An esters•
stye plain of 'oceans stew has formed

Tasting oommenieation with Tolokbe-
loa+l and -tics soutb-west of Jays.

A colored man arrested at Chatham,
Ont., yesterday had the following articles
in his possession, supposed to have been
stolen : -An 18k chased gold ring, a 141.
plain gold ring, a three stone opal t;:.l:i
ring, a lady's gold watch, made by llus-
sell & son, an old-fashioned lady's 'told

round jet brooch, a plated pencil case,
and a gold key.

The Conservative party in Ontario has
sustained a certain loss by the extinction
Judge Huges as a leader or former of
public opinion. Gratuitously and with-
out cause he extinguished himself ; no-
body else dil it, the case is one of sui-
cide of a certain sort. The people of
this country will not be guided in inst-
ters of opinion by any who maintains
the legal right of a husband to beat his
wife. Since he has posed before the
public as champion of that doctrine " his
usefulness is gone" as a teacher of the
people. His exposures of abuses con-
nected with the working of the Crooks
act in the county o>t Elgiri were not
without influence oq the public, but now
he has done the Ontario Ooverament a
favor by extinguishing . himself and his
influence together. In mitten of pub
lic controversy he is now " a dead cock
in the pit," if we may be so irreverent
as too speak thus of a learned judge. -
