Owens, a merchant of Manilla, urrired
here yesterday on the steamer Gaelic.
He says a terrible massacre occurred
August 10 in the town of Ponr.pn, on
the Island. The Spanish soldiers were
building a fortress on the side of the
town, and left in (ho fort a number of
rifles. The natives overpowered tbe
guards, seized the guns and attacked
the town. Thirty-two Spaniards were
killed. Several Spanish men-of-war
were sent from Manilla to quell the dis
turbance. The American bark Parov
was lost six weeks ago between Manilla
