To the Editor of the "NontH-Caixa Daur News'
Sim—"L. A. Lis" letter of ths 10th instant elenrly proves to a ship: master and pilot, on the Yangtze; for over 20. yours, his ignorance of the str, Loongwo's dangerous condition.
The position where the str. Loong-we stranded is one of the most dangerous spots on the Yangtze; full of sunken rocks, very strong" currents and eddies, and in the summer months, a regular whirl. yeel. Had the Loongwo slipped off to deep water, and sunk, thers uld be very little hopes for those she ever got in the river. You are quite correct, Sir, in all your previous articles; this desertion to once in danger either at sea or river was barbarous.
