THE NEW HEBRIDES.
THE TANNA FIGHTING,
A WAR OF EXTERMINATION.
WHITE RESIDENTS LEAVING,
Sydney, this day,
News from the New Hebrides states that the white residents on Tanna Island are about to leave until the tribal war ceases.
_ It is thought that such a consummation will not be obtained until one side exterminates the other.
Sir J. B. Thurston, High Commissioner of the Western Pacific, will shortly visit Tanna to ascertain if any action can be taken to put a stop to the butchery.
