THIRD REPORT FROM THE SELECT COMMITTEE ON THE AFFAIRS OF THE EAST INDIA COMPANY. From the Dublin Literary Gazette. China and Europe are the two most opposite commu nities in the world, not merely in geographical position, but in every thing that constitutes nationality : both highly civilized, far above the average of any of the na nous surrounding each, yet of a species of civilization .sugularly different; the opposition of habits, customs, manners, descending into the minutiae of every day par ticulars in a manner and a direction of divergency almost ludicrous. Our relative ideas of each other's importance, .1!e regulated by the same standard of opposition ; an an del,: Chinese map represents the celestial empire as tic( upying the whole of the sheet on which it is drawn, v.ith the exception of one corner which is set apart for 411 the rest of the world ; in an ancient European map of tilt. world, on the other side, we look in vain for China, ur Lid it perhaps a solitary name, as a part of Terra In citlita. We live now in better times ; our globes or maps are not disgraced with distorted drawings of that reAt nation, and its neighbouring territories, its geo graphical positions,ere laid down with tolerable precision ; but as to the interior, with the exception of the general laws of deviation of some of its larger rivers, and the bearings of some of its more important positions, our limit - Age, it must be confessed, is very inadequate, rho. to the absolute magnitude of that wonderful em i..,t or to its relative importance as affecting our ex :..tided, and still extending commercial and political • i:Ltions. 11,e information given in the evidence now before us, filits up several of these chasms. It comes also in an autlamticated form, from individuals well acquainted with tiLe particulars they detail, deeply interested in the en ';i4u) , and placed in a situation in which they know that .ealciiing eye is watching over their relation, active to mid eager to expose any mis-statement or fallacy. ILL• accounts given by them may therefore be safely re tied up on , as to genera l fid e li ty an d accuracy. lite real amount of the population of China has been one of the unsolved problems in geography. Though "he commonly received statements were usually c0n5i ,,,,•41 to be overrated, yet it was deemed an indisputable I that the total, after every reasonable deduction had en made, was far beyond that of any European coun :,, or, indeed, of any, with which we are acquainted. • urn the statistical table already alluded to, it appears, that the whole population of China proper, exclusive of mutty and the dependent provinces, amounts to 11 1,470,000 souls, which, when compared with the area .Inface of the country, give an avenge of 103 souls 41l No. 13,471. / rp. 4pit t -, _4 \. ~--7- 7 ---- ~,, __.

Let this be compared with the known averages of some other countries : Souls. ChM', per squire mile illodoostan Austria.. ...... .............. ........... 110 France England Thus we see that this so much vaunted population does not amount to one-half of that of England, com pared with the relative extent of territory of each country. The cause of the apparently excessive population of China, arises from the provinces being very unequally peopled, and the over-crowded portion of the country being that to which foreigners generally, if not solely, lad access. - There are, in feet, but four provinces, out of the fifteen into which the empire is divided, that are densely inhabited; these embrace but little more than one fourth of the entire area, yet contain about two-thirds of the population. The circumstances connected with emigration have been also ill-understood, and therefore much misrepresented. The following summary of the information given in this curious document will serve to show the real state of the case, and in some measure to develop the grounds of the misconception. The emigrations of the Chinese take place chiefly from the four southern maritime provinces. The emigrants direct their course to every neighbouring country where there is any hope of finding employment and protection. They are excluded, like the European nations, from settling in Japan, on political grounds ; the government of Cochin-China affords them no great en couragement, from the same reason, and the Dutch and Spanish governments of Java and the Philippines have always looked on them with much suspicion. Distance, and the existence of a dense and comparatively indus trious population, exclude them from the British posses sions in Hindoostan, where there are only a few shoe makers and other artizans from that country, and these confined to Calcutta, Madras, and Bombay. Every emigrant who leaves China, does so with the intention of returning to it, although comparatively, few are able to accomplish this object. The expense of emi gration to the countries to which the Chinese usually re sort, amounts to very little. Yet even the slender sum required, is commonly paid for the fruits of the emigrant's labour on his arrival, and seldom in advance. They are invariably of the labouring classes, and their whole equip ment for the voyage consists of little else than the coat on their back, a bundle of old clothes, and a dirty mat and pillow to sleep on. They no sooner land than their condition is wonderfully improved. They meet their countrymen, and find immediate employment in a conge nial climate where the wages of labour are, perhaps, three times as high as in China, and the necessaries of life cheaper by half. The Chinese are not only intellectually, but physically, superior to nations among whom they settle. A Chinese, is, at least, two inches taller than a Siamese, and by three taller than a Cochin-Chinese, a Malay, or a Ja vanese, and his frame is proportionably strong and well built. Their superiority in personal skill, dexterity, and ingenuity, is still greater. The wages of a Chinese la bourer at Sincapore, are eight dollars a month, and of a Malay, four ; thus proving the work of the former to be double the value of that of the latter. The different classes of Chinese settlers not only live apart and keep distinct from those of other nations, but from each other. There is a wide difference between their character, habits, and manners, according to the provinces from which they proceed. The emigrants from the town of Canton, besides being addicted to mercantile' pursuits, are the best artizans, and are much disposed to enter into mining speculations. It is they who are chiefly employed in working the silver mines of Tonquin, the' gold mines of Borneo, and of the Malay peninsula, and the tin mines of the latter country, and of Bence. The Chinese of Macao, and the other islands, are held in very little repute by the rest of their countrymen, but those of the mountainous districts, who are numer ous, are the lowest in rank. Their most frequent employ ment is that of fishermen and mariners ; and it is from their ranks that European shipping, when in want, have occasionally received hands. Of all the Chinese, these are the most noisy and unruly. The Chinese settlers, of whatever class, engage with much eagerness in agricultural employments, seldom, however, unless through necessity, as day labourers.— They conduct, almost exclusively, the cultivation and manufacture of the catechu or terra Japonica in the strait of Malacca, the pepper cultivation of Siam, and the cul ture of the cane, and the manufacture of sugar in Java, Siam, and the Philippines. Differing materially from each other in manners, habits, and almost always in lan guage and dialect, and entertaining towards each other provincial prejudices and antipathies ; broils and quar rels, sometimes even attended with bloodshed, frequently break out among them. These ate occasionally subjects of embarrassment in the European settlement ; but no thing is to be apprehended from their systematic combi nation or resistance ; for of all the Asiatic inhabitants of our eastern dependencies, the Chinese are the most obe dient to the laws, and, notwithstanding the superior amount of their property, and even of their numbers, af ford the least employment to the courts of justice. The emigrant population from China is of a peculiar description, consisting, for the most part, of adult males, and of very few women, or children, a circumstance easily explained. The laws of China, which prohibit emigra tion in general, are a dead letter, as far as the men are concerned ; but it is imperative in respect to women and children, or, perhaps, more strictly, the m anners an d feel ings of he people themselves, prevent the latter from quitting the country. The person who gives this part of the evidence, and who had resided many years in the Bri tish dependencies, states that he had never seen or heard of a female among the emigrants, and never saw a Chi nese woman, except at Hue, tbe capital of Cochin Chins, were two or three were pointed out as objects of curiosity, who had been kidnapped, and brought there when chil dren. The emigrants, however, without scruple, form connexions with the females of the coun t r y, an d t he de scendants of these repeatedly intermarrying with Chinese, are in time not to be distinguished from the genuine Chi nese, either in features or complexion. But in countries where the settlers have been only recently established, the disproportion of the sexes is immense. Mu, out of the 6,200 Chinese inhabitants of Sincapore, the number, of females is but 360, and even of these the greater part are Chinese only in name The number of emigrants who return to China, though considerable, is very small in com n with the arrivals. Even of those, the greater number back again. There are resident in the Bri tish settlements, Chinese emigrants, men of property, who have visited China, and returned with titles. The evidence details a great number of facts relative to the culture and exportation of tea, highly worthy of no ttee. The excellency of the herb is attributed chiefly to the attention paid to its culture ; hence it is, that though the tree i If is a hardy plant, thriving under a great re mate, the marketable commodity produced from it is very inferior in all other countries to that of China. Like the grape, it also differs in flavour from difference of I toil and management, and there is as much difference be lt,isen the choice teas conveyed overland to Russia, and tlss to Europe, as between the claret and Burgundy wines of France. It is also said that the flavour of the plant is much deteriorated by the sea voyage. As to the prices, which involves a great political and commercial question, now agitated with much energy, we must refer our readers to the document itself, which will, in this and other respects, amply repay the trouble of dis entangling the facts, from the tedious and complicated tissue of question and answer in which they are involved. LISBON, May 1. PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE Or THE HERALD. The proclamations of the Portuguese Regency now installed in the island of Terceira, which were brought to Lisbon by the last packet, have been circulated on all sides. The packet reached this city at three o'clock, and at eight the soldiers were reading them in the different barracks of the Ist Cavalry, the 4th and the 18th In. fautry. The Government was not only annoyed at this fact, but puzzled as to what line of conduct to adopt. An order of the day was published, prohibiting the soldiers to leave their barracks without the written permission of their Colonels, and even their undress was strictly forbidden. The insubordination of the soldiers became very great. One man of the 4th regiment was on Tuesday so severely flogged, that he died within a few hours. His crime was having spoken of the news contained in the proclamations. An I attempt was made to chastise others; but the Wilms, knowing the spirit of the men, did not dare to carry their intention into effect. To counteract the statements of the proclamations, as well as to prevent the effects which such statements are calculated to produce in the provinces, the Lisbon Gaulle, which is, if possible, more meagre and stupid than of old, published a report from a London Sunday paper of the 4th ult. in which Lord Mounteharles is said to have received instructions to come hither as Ambassador to re cognise Miguel I. Much ridicule was excited by this statement, which the editor of the Gazette had, as it appeared, kept ten days in stem, as it had arrived by the previous packet. The vexation of the Miguelite government has extended itself to the Captain of the packet, which is a new one on this station. It has lately been the practice of the government to put one or two alone of Customs on board the packet, where they acted as spies. Twice they attempted to place them on board the Cygnet, but the Captain ordered them to retire, alleging that it would be a disgrace to the British flag to suffer such persons on board. An Ineffectual application was made to the Consul, who said that, as his Majesty's ship was under the orders of the Admiralty, he could not interfere. The four British sailors, whose vessel were seised off St. George's island, were liberated this morning from confinement, and go to England on board the packet. In order to remove the effects produced in the minds of the sol diers, a review of the troops has taken place. I was present at that of the cavalry on Thursday evening. Miguel was received with a partial cheering by the troops, as be entered the royal park near Al cantara; but the people scarcely gave any token of recognition. There were reviewed eight squadrons. There were none of the corn. mon people allowed to enter the park, which, as well as its environs, was studded with police patrols. One of the measures of defence contemplated by the Miguelite Government is the increased fortification of the Tower of St. Ju lien's. at the entrance of the Tagus, for which purpose it is rumoured that the political prisoners are to be removed from thence to the pri. sons of 'Prefer* on the southern side. Perhaps it was this bum tion which caused orders to be issued this morning that no person whatever should be allowed to embark or to go on the river. This order, which proved a serious annoyance to the British and other merchants, has this evening been changed into a prohibition to allow persons to land on the other side of the Tagus who have not pass ports. Report says that several thousand proclamations have been landed on that shore. Strict search has been made in several houses for the proclamations, and all who enter the Castle have their per sons examined. The alarm of the Government is not lessened by the news brought from the Acores. Two vessels have arrived, one lad►% with run. away. from St. Michael's, and the other with political prisoners from Faye). It is stated that a French frigate had arrived at Ter ceira,which saluted the fortress, and received a return, and that illu. ruination' were seen at Angra on that evening. The Spanish Minister remains still at Cintra, in expectation of the decision which the Emperor of Russia is to give to the protocol, said to have been signed at Paris, relative to the affairs of Portugal. The want of their pay is most acutely felt by the employers : bread is dearer than before, and there is not corn for two weeks sup ply in Lisbon. Persecution still continues. The large storeahip, Joao Magnanhno, is to sail to-meerow with 43 political convicts for India. In the Gosette you will fund the names of several officers who were tried last month, for refusing two years ago to yield to Miguel's rule ; some have been acquitted after two years imprisofiment. - Eacharge on England, Count. paper money 20 du.

With inquiet to the fatter, he was not calle.l upon to give an opinion; but lie would bear his testimony to the fact, that the distre's of which they complained was great. He re gretted to add, that he had heard nothing stated by his majesty's ministers, indicative on their part, of proposing anything to reline the distresses of which the petitioners, and others eheum►tanced hie them, complained. The noble lord then presented a petition from the seamen of the port of Sunderland, praying to be relieved from contributing towards defraying the expenses of Greenwich Hospital.

Mr. Toadies, from the Treasury, presented at the bar an account of the exports and imports of coals during a stated period. Mr. Preston, from the East India House, presented at the bar financial estimates of the Rut India Company. lIREACH Or PRIVILEGE. It having been intimated to their lordships, by Mr. Pullen, the Assistant Usher of the Black Rod, that Mr. (lepp, the Acting Treasurer of the western division of the county of Essex, was in attendance, in conformity to a summons issued on a preceding day, The Earl of MAUI ESBURY rose, and said that, on the 26tli of July last, an order of the house had been made out, requiring re turns of land -tax, and that the treasurer of the western division of the county of Essex had not complied with that order. On the 6th of December a letter was written to that gentleman, to which no an. ewer was returned. At the commencement of the present session a letter was addressed to him, and it was found that the duties of the office were performed by deputy. About six weeks ago another letter was written, to which no answer was returned. The noble earl then proceeded to say that the returns bad been now furnished, but he felt it his duty, having, in the first instance, moved for the production of them, to move for the attendance of the acting trea surer, Mr. Gepp ; and with their lordship's permission, he would now propose that Mr. Oepp be called in, with a view of explaining his conduct. The motion having been put and carried, AIL Depp was al WI in: be stood at the bar. The lA/RD CHANCELLOR informed him that he had been summoned to attend the house, kw having disobeyed its orders, and he was now called upon to state what be wished to offer in extenua tioa of his conduct. Mr. Gepp—My Lords, I am extremely sorry for what has tram. pared. When I first received the order of your lordship.' house, requiring the return, it was unfortunately laid wide. I beg to say that in what I have done, I had no intention of showing any disres pect to this house. In the hurry of business the order bad been for. I *peat that I ant sorry for what has been done, and I an, fully sensible that I ought to have furnished the return required. Ile was desired to withdraw. The Earl of MALMESBURY said that it was not his wish to proceed with harshness towards any individual. There were two courses to take the choice of, when pp circumstanced as Mr. Oepp was were brought to their [pa' bar, either to direct than to be kept in custody, or discharge than as payment of fees. It was proper to show that their Lordships had the power of enforcing their orden.--(Hear, hear.)—Taking into consideration the contri tion which Mr. Oepp had evinced, he (the Earl of Malmesbury) would call upon the house to have him discharged out of custody. after being reprimanded. Mr. Oepp was then called in, and having taken his station at the bar, The LORD CHANCELLOR, addressing him, said—You have been guilty of a serious offeoce, in disobeying the orders of the house. —For such offence you are liable to be sent to prison.— You, however, having explained your conduct, and expressed con trition for what you have done, the house extends its indulgence to you, and orders you to be discharged out of custody, and you ar e discharged accordingly. Mr. tiepp then bowed and retired. Lord SEELMERSDALE moved the thin of the Day far the second reading of Shakerley's Divorce Bill. The LORD CHANCELLOR said that he bad attended to the evidence, and he thought the adultery had been completely esta blished; and there appeared no evidence why the bill ought not to be read a second time. The bill was then read a second time. Lord TEYNHAM wished to make a few observations. The LORD CHANCELLOR observed, that the noble lord would have another opportunity at a future stage of the bill. Lord TEYNHA 111 then signified he would reserve what he wished to state until the bill was committed. COMPOSITION OF TITIINS. The Archbishop of CANTERBURY rose to submit the bill for compounding tithes, of which he had given previous notice. Ile commenced with remarking, that he bad hoped to lay the bill on their lordships' table at an earlier period of the maim, in order that the principles and details might be beton the house, but cimunstanees had occurred to prevent him. He request ed the attention of their lordships to the measure, it being a subject of considerable importance. Many complaints bad been made on account of the m eof providing is the Clergy, which tended to disturb the harmony which ought to subsist between them and thei r parishioners. With a view of obviating that evils, various reme dies had been suggested—money psymens, corn rent, and so on ; but to all these he objwied, if accompanied with the extinction of tithes. To a composition, by voluntary agreement, for a limited period, by which an incumbent might bind his mecesson, no objec tion existed on the part of the Right Rev. Prelates, and he be lieved that incumbents generally would rejoice as such a spotari. To establish such a composition was the object of the presets MB, which bad been framed on the Act now in form (for compound. dog Tythes) in Ireland. (bear, hear, hear).
