CHINESE PIRACY.
Hong Kong, March 17. The villagers near Chifu seized tha pirate junks during the night, and killed sixty of those on board, mutilating their bodies in a fearful manner. Of the crews of all the junks there were only two survivors. The attacking party afterwards ate the hearts of their victims. The outrage was in revenge for several murders which had lately been committed by the pirates in the district.
