 s' During the last month there was an iil- surrection at this place, caused principally by one of the old Catholic Priests, who altered his belief, and began to preach in Manila city, but was soon banished from that place under penalty of death should he enter ii again. Thence he went to the native vil- lages, where there was quartered regiment of soldiers, and began to preach, and soon obtained many followers. The Governor of Manila forthwith sent regiment to destroy the town and people. (1his regiment was composed mostly of soldiers draughted from this city, The moment they arrived, they turned to and killed all their officers, and, with the assistance of the old Priests follow CTS, marched 10 Manila, and during the night scaled the walls of one of the largest forts, secured all tha. were in it, and then blew up one end of it. After that, they proceeded to the magazine, which had but one entrance. and that was secured by seven iron doors They succeeded in forcing three of them when, much to their surprise, the fort was retaken by the Governors troops, who marched into the fort, and, after little skir- mishing, took them all prisoners. A few days since, sixty-two of them were shot and tarty-cight strangled to death
