 The general news by this arrival consists princi- pally of the shocking atrocities committed by the French in Algeria, where about 600 Arabs, who had taken refuge in cave, were sufocated or bur ned alive, by order of French officer. Fresh dis turbances and revolutionary movements have occur red in Spain Ireland is also the scene of dreadful copHicts. ...

 Referring to the dreadful event in Algeria, which was scarcely believed at first, the London Times ot the 17th ult. remarks: @ The atrocious and appai- ling crime committed by the French troops in Af- Tica and of which, although they appeared lncred- fble, we published some details, is placed beyond doubt by inc Paris and Toulon journals. We ob- serve throughout the entire press of Paris but one feeling expressed-one cry of execratlon uttered on this sinIernal' act of barbarty, by which 600 human beings, nearly an entire tribe, consisting of men, women, and children, were ruthlessly massa- cred"

Colonel Pelissier was busy in pursuing 1e Oued Rahs, who have never yet sub mitted, asg hey live in immense caverns, where It would beI1aadness for the troops to enter. On the 18th of June, finding themselves closely pursued, the Oulea Riahs flew to the usual place ofrciuge- After having surrounded the caverns, some faggots were ligH ed and thrown by the French troops be- fore the entrance.

During this tune the cries of the unhappy wretches. wlo were being su- located. were dreadful, and then nothing was heard but the cracklng of the faggots. This silence spoke volumes. The troops entered and found 800 dead bodies. About l30 who still breathcd, were brought into the fresh air, but portion ot them dl- ed afterwards"
