A SHIPPING TROUBLE.
[pee electric telegraph—copyright.]
(per press association.)
Received this day at 9 54 a.m. , Sydney, This Day. The employment of Lascars on the Orarah does not necessarily mean it will bo generally followed throughout the fleet. The Omrah belongs to the Naval Reserve, and 'is compelled to carry a minimum number of British sailors. , She was unable to get the requisite number to take tho vessel to sea, and Scandinavians were engaged; but this was objected to by the Lascars, who, as British subjects, were therefore engaged. If the white British sailor is not more amenable to discipline, it is likely that Lascars will take their place aboard ships.
