Piracy is Not so Nearly Extinct as is Generally Assumed. Tho seizure of the Neuvro Tigre in the South Pacific, as reported from Syd- ney recently, might have happened in the days of Captain Kidd. The master end Snare were made to walls the plank in the bad old style, after which the name of Ube stolen vessel was altered to the White Rose, and her course set ter the coral islands, on one of which she ultimately went ashore. Then tlhere was the case of the French ship Baleineen, which was loot- ed by Moorish pirates off Cape Juby last February, and whose crew of nineteen men were only saved from imminent death by the opportune arrival of Lord Mountmorres. whoof them g by a ruse on board a little thirty -ton yacht he was navigating. Somewhat earlier en the year, a little further to the southward, a horde of black pirates attacked and looted the German steamer, Ascan \\'oermaain. Near Shanghai, during the same week, twa Munches were attacked by several hundred pirates while steaming down the river, three passengers belug killed and cargo valued at $15,000 carried aft; while only the other day a d.etcrrrrinee attempt. was made by nomad Arab triiosnren to capture a British Meunier plying on the Euphrates, several of her passengers and craw being killed or wounded by rifle fire. Nor do the above instances by any means exhaust the list of outrages of tate kind tiret have occurred during the pre. tient year, for between January 1st end JvIerch 1st, according to an American Consular report, no fewer than eleven craft of various sorts- a ndize ss hese Men captured b ire bac p y pirates in and about the Philippine Islands.
