The precise Mire character aide vend is one of the met Mordant of the you in dimputo. On the one band, it is aimed by the Chem, and not denied by the British, that she was Chinese built—it is quite ordain that mho was the property of a Chem owner, and manned by a crew of twelve Chime sailors. The British authorities Mien that this vend, beers Min fres Hoag Herr, had duly erred at that port— mho washy law =Wed tads--s egret register, by Arm d which she heated • Bride ensign, mad thenceforth berme to all intone sad porpoise a British weeeL The Clem authorities deny this.

Om this point this mans to los Mime both ways. Let me, homer, take the British mond as the Me one. Let me take it that at the commersent of October cast Is the port of Canton lay the Arrow, Chime built, Meese manned, but pissed by virtue of her Leiria' register under the protodir of the British dug Oa the Se of Odoier, in eamemence of its smiat be t h e ere of the OrrirlhOf of Canton that two et the sew of the Arrow bed bass guilty of coteries am of piney, that tesatiesteay caused the whole new to be hese& up beers him for szaminatim. The British Consul mays that when the seism was me& is Hag was lying on board the Arrow. The Chimes Governor dries this in the mast =plink and positive term In his latter of the 31st of October, be mama "It was net known at the time when my Insentive went to min" persons an Mid of her, that the kris was a foreign reeel." "when the loreba was boarded it was oriefeetanly prove the no flag was dyke.' In Ws litter ef the Ind of November he taken the rase ground: "No foreigelag was men by my Haseatir at the time of the ampere t and as, in addition to the it was Nam tained en the ercaminatisa rd the pincers that the isrea wee in no raped a foreign yore', I maintain that there was no 'mistake camitted." brown be rehire at ems to give up his captives, en the men ilss disa el the British Coned that the simpoesd Chinese mesel is really British—he is required to undergo the pablio humiliation of not only restoring thew outlaws to liberty, bat of asee ally receedneting they an board the magi from which they bad bean taken, making • humble apo logy for hie proceedings, and giving a promise that nothing of the sort amid occur again. Reverse the parties in this case. Suppose Tan, instead of being " Imperisl Carradreimer sad Governor-o=Ml of the Two Emusgs," were Chinese Consul at Liver pool, and bad addromed such a demand on some similar occuien to his Worship the Mayor of that fames maritime emporium. The very notion, we shall be told, is too absurd to be entertained he a moment. There is no analogy between the eases. These people are barbarians, and must be treated u such. Barbarians, yes—if every civilisation that is of a different pattern to our own is to be called . . barbarism—then indeed the Chinese are barbarous; not otherwise. They are a people of high refine ment and ancient cultivation, eminently instructed and singularly governed in all their relations by their own view, of what is just and fitting. They have no feudalism, no Laded aristocracy; but they were an Empire when the ancestors of the Ph - narruzzaa were a horde. They are barbarous enough to reflect back honour from the distinguished living to the obscure dead, instead of deriving it down from the distinguished dead to the ob scure living. They are barbarous enough to know no passport to high office but proved merit ; they set adds the claims of family in favour of talent with a singleness of mind, which to an administrative reformer mast seem the highest stretch of political virtue; and discover an appetite for universal competitive examination which goes fsr beyond the zeal of Sir CHARLES TRETELYAN and Sir STAFFORD NORTRCOTE. Such are the people wham, in the opinion of those who on this occasion have unfortunately acted as the representatives of Eng- I land, it is just to despies and politic to bully. Highness ihe Of this insulting communication of the 12th the Governor of the Two Iwanga took no notice. On the 21st a final letter is sent, threatening peremptory proceedings if the Governor does not yield. At noon the next day the twelve seamen are sent to the Consulate with a message from the Governor that two of them are criminals, and must be sent back immediately. This does not satisfy Mr. Consul Rims, who hereupon hands the Governor over to the " secular sem " of Sir )!serif. Sermons, the Admiral. From this stage the matter assumes a new complexion. A fresh muss ball is added to the old one. Canton is to be battered down net only because the Governor won't own himself to be in the wrong when he believes himself to be in the right, but became he won't hold personal communica tion with the British AdmiraL The Admiral re gards an interview. Yea, acting is conformity widi the uniform practice of all former governors, declines it. Sir MICHAEL thereupon proceeds to take porte d= of a few of the river forte, makes a breech in the city walls, and blows up the Tsing Hai Gate. The *anti with which the Admiral announces this to Yew cannot be exceeded : " Your Eleellsney sen t no reply to my message, and, according to the inten tion of which I had given notice to year deputy, I breeched the wail of the city, mod thin Amapa maim to row Emolinocy's oiteMintsidefter, which I 'Waal yootonloy tiftersoos.

The sum and Nab dame of the whole is this, that Sir Micmac. fixvitoce, amble to compel the Governor by any I milder proceedings to submit, bad recourse to the extreme proceeding of bombarding the city for • day end • hall--destroying the Imperial navy and taking the Bogus forts.

These troops are composed of picked regiments from the Cauea sas other hoops concentrated in the Caucasus are very numerous ; the five corps of which they are composed can act in concert at any given moment. In addition to the corps of Bakon, which belongs to the army of the Caucasus, and which, in case of need, could proceed to Persil', there is Another corps, that of Orenbourg, which, if required, could take part in an expedition. It would be destined to invade the territory of the Afghans, and prevent them fighting against Persia in concert with Eng land. The troops would proceed from Orenbourg by the road followed by the expedition of Perowaki on %him.

Immense activity prevails in the various offices of the Ministry of War here, and of the administra tions of the regiments," mays a letter from Berlin in the Dresden ./o•rnal. " In the Ministry of War, and in the general staff, deliberations, in which the officers of provincial staffs take part, are held on the prepara tions necessary to be made by the entrance on • campaign of an expeditionary army. The medical organisation in particular is being completely trans formed in consequence of the experience attained in the Eastern war." The Suisse of Berne says :—" The Federal military dep-rtment has addressed to the government of the cantons a circular, in which it enjtins the municipal authorities to send immediately to the commanders of divisions a return of the state of the buildings, the condition of the populations, Ike., of their com munes, together with information respecting all the edifices which can serve for the establishment of guard-houses, workshops, hospitals, and stables. The communes, moreover, are requested to make known the number of horses they paeans. If war be declared, the general-in-chief and the oommndera of divisions will have the right to take from private persons all the hones they may require. The Grand Council of Lucerne met on Saturday, and accorded to the government an unlimited credit for the even tualitintof war." The latest telegraphic despatch received at Paris, from Berne, is dated Wednesday, and it dates that the Federal Assembly has unanimously elected Gen. Dufour (a veteran officer of Napoleon's greeds arm Pe, and the trusted negotiator, on behalf of the Swim Confederation, with the Emperor of the French), to be the Commander-in-Chief of the Federal Army. General Dufour immediately took the oaths prescribed by the constitution. General Freiherose was appointed to be the Quer- The Assembly is to hold three more sittings. A despatch from Berlin, dated the evening of the 30th ult., says " A number of generals of division are now here. Sir Colin Campbell hag arrived ; he is charged to deliver to the Prince of Prussia the insignia of the Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath." The same telegraphic despatch announces that Baron von Mantentfel, who is the Prime Minister of Prussia, had left Berlin for Vienna. It seems doubt ful, however, whether Colonel von Manteneel be not the person intended.

The silence of the Ifonireer on the subject of the Conferences, gine en unanswerable contradiction to the conjecture that all business wsa finished yesterday. The Constitutionnel announces that the second sit ting will take place on Saturday, or Sunday at farthest. It is to be noticed, although the fact could not be doubtful, that Count Walcwski presided. The Pays, the only evening paper that appears today, says that the next sitting will take place 500 n .,, _ . _ The New-year's receptions at the Tuileries, an nounced by the Moniker, were to some extent marred by the dirty state of the street., in conse quence of which the numerous officers and officials in uniform, who went on foot, were forced to appear in the presence with splashed trousers. The Swiss in Paris are signing an address at thanks to the Prune for the part it has taken in favour of Switzerland in the Neufchitel question. A number of young Swiss citizens met togriermr yesterday at a patriotic dinner at Prevoet's Ratan rant, Boulevard Bonne Nouvelle& M. Krim=ler presided. Placards, containing menaces of death against the Emperor, having been found posted up some short time beck in the Ruc Neuve des Mathurins, in Paris, the police endeavoured to discover the author of them. A tailor named Wattcbled was arrested shortly after with two similar placards in his posses sion. Being brought to trial yesterday, before the Correctional Tribunal, ho was condemned to fifteen months' imprisonment and 60fr. fine. The Sieele contains an article from the pen of its political director, M. Havin, in which it submits to the clemency of the Emperor a plan of general am nesty for the natives of France who are still lan guishing in exile from political causes. It is said that the person killed by the sentry at the Clichy debtor's prison was an American mer chant, who was to have been released the next day. It appears that the soldier who made this deplorable use of hisweapon,acted under an entire misconception of his duty. lie remembered that when on guard in criminal prisons ho had been ordered to fire upon any prisoner who put his head out of the window and refused to retire when warned to do so, and he most unfortunately fancied that these orders were in force at Clichy. The adjourned case of Madame Audouin against Colonel Dubost, in which she claimed 100,000 francs' damages, foe his refusal to complete his marriage and live with her, came on again yesterday before ' the Civil Tribunal of the Seine for judgment. The court gave a verdict for the defendant, and con demned Madame Audouin to pay the costs of the proceedings. The public minister was more severe upon the lady than even the counsel for the defence. He called her an Artemisa, unworthy of any sym pathy, and expressed an opinion that if she, who two months after the death of her first husband was ready to exchange her mourning attire for bridal robes, had suffered any damage, it was only such as resulted from the scandal of the action which she had brought. AUSTRALIA. Our letters and files of Australian papers by this mail are not yet delivered. The Colombo Observer publishes a summary of news from Melbourne to Oct. 18, in which it is said The gold escort which arrived on Oct. 11th brought down 43,000 ounces from the various gold fields. The government of New South Wales has passed an act to enable the Governor, with the ad vice of the Executive Council, from time to time to raise, by the sales of debenture's, secured upon the consolidated revenue fond of the colony, and bearing interest at a rate not exceeding 6 per centum per annum, such sum or sums of money not exceeding 200,0001. as may be required for carrying on of rail way works.

Twenty-eight members of the new assembly had been already elected. The Argus believes the elections to be in favour of the Haines government. The Herald holds the opposite opinion. In Sydney the Cowper administration seems to have lasted only a fortnight. The governor refused to dissolve parlia ment. Mr. Hay endeavoured to form a government, but in vain. Mr. Watson Parker seems to have been more successful. The first cattle fair* in Victoria had pared off I welL The duties on gold exported from Melbourne in the year ended 30th September, 1856, were 381,0001.

The total credits for the quarter were 826,0001. ; debits, 766,0001. Wages being high, and the necessaries of life cheap, the dep osi ts in the savings banks were increasing largely. Large auriferous deposits near Malmesbury were reported. Great excitement had been created in Sydney by the announcement of a nugget of gold weighing five hundredweight. It I. stated, however, to be merely a mass of quartz with a vein of gold running through it. The revenue of New South Wales for 1837 was estimated at 1,277,0001.

Mr. Britton was born on the 7th of Jule, 1771, at )(fatten Bt. Michael, in Wiltshire, where his fatLer once enjoyed a fair share of patroness as biker, maltoter, shopkeeper, and small farmer. A change however came o'er the scene; the business failed, and the family was involved in eircamitanose of difficulty, under which the parent(' of the late Join Britton were unable to afford him much of a school ahead= In his autobiography Mr. Britton time, speaks of his birth place: —"Without a regular clergyman to advise MI admonish, or a magistrate, or4vate gentleman residing in the principal home of the vi , the inhabitants were an. dionjolin4 illiterate, enddeprived of all good ample ; " and again he observes : " I do not think there was a newspaper or magazine parcheaed by one oldie inhabitants before the year 1780 when the riots were talked about, and wondered at." He was tint co& ivied to the care of a schoolmistrem, and was subsequestly placed under four sacceesive masters, not one of whom seem to have been able to administer a large amount of bow ledge. On the 26th of October, 1787, be quilted the bee of his childhood, and accompanied an uncle to seek his for tune in the great t etrapoW. He was then apprenticed as ealiamea to Kr. d the Jerarlem Tavern, Clerks eininn-peen, where he was initiated into the mptnies of " or wines, bottling, corking, and tanning the ease." He vas wont to steel as much time se he could le visit old book Malls, and make moll purchases ~ bat, we ere told, All the reading I could indulge in, during my term of legal slavery, wee by candle light in the cellar, and st eeonal intervals aely, not of len s,bat d time abstracted from systematic duds." The vicissitudes, privations, and hardship. which he (tapes rienord artesian next seven years could not be related without wither sympathy. In obscure lodgings at eighteen rUce per week, he still indulged in ready, and often read In bed during the winter ertelege, being tmable to afford a fire. When in his 22nd year, end with a puree containing about siz pounds, he walked home to Wiltshire, and found hie satire village much altered—his mother bad died broker hearted, his father had become idiotic and was no Mager in the land of the living, and hie brothers and miners were scattered abroad. His old home being than destroyed, after having endeavoured in vain to pros cure maple_ meet in the West of England, be rem turned to London almost penniless, shoeleso, and &helms Soon afterwards he was engaged as cellar-awn at the London Tavern, and neat es "clerk to a widow in Smithfield." We then find him in the service of an attorney in Gray'*.inn. In 1789 he was engaged by a Mr. Chapman to "write, re cite, and zing" at a theatre in Pantos-stmt, Haymarket, at three guineas per week. From that date his literary career may be said to have commenced. His first production of any importance was a volume on "The Life end Adventures of Pizarro," suggested by the then popularity of Kotzebue's favourite German drama. In his week on the " Beauties of Wiltshire" be was eminently successful; and hie " Ant& tectural Antiquities of Great Britain," and "Cathedral An tiquitles of England," gained him a considerable reputation.
