MASSACRE IN NEW HEBRIDES.
Sydney, Sept. 6
A French steamer brings the report of ahother massacre in the New Hebrides.
A Fiench trading schooner, the Guadalite, drifted ashore at Espiegile Bay, Mollicollo. Hordes of savages then surrounded and massacred the crew, the captain (a Frenchman), and four or five natives.
The savages then looted the schooner.
Details are meagre. It is thought that some members of crew may have escaped into the bush.
