'!** Grand Change of Programme I of Leeds, about the woollen manufacture—but for the whole tribe of representatives for small boroughs, they ought to know their proper place among the Parliamentary hierarchy—the less they said the better, and their appro priate function was fulfilled when they had followed their party into this and that• lobby, and supported by their docile and silent vote the Minister or the Opposi tion of the day. (Laughter.) Now, with every pos , sible respect for the county members, whose respectaT bility of character in common with the noble lord, I highly appreciate, I must demur to 'the doctrine that the po'icy or principles of the Government or Legislature ought to reside chiefly in their hands. The county mem bers are in fact the representatives, more than of any other element, of the property of their respective counties, and of the territorial interest of the great families connected with it—and it would be held to be presumptuous in general for any candidate to come forward for a county who was not by himself, his family, or connections, the representative of a large body of peers and landed proprietors. As a class, therefore, the county members are almost the last who ought to have a preponderating influence in the House of Commons; and in fact the great Reform Bill was levelled more than anything else, at the modification of the great ter ritorial interest which at that time prevailed in the constitu tion of the House of Commons. For myself, concluded the hon. gentleman, I shall not be induced, by the employment of any unworthy imputations or sarcasms of the nature to, which I have adverted, from continuing to exert all the vigilance at my command in checking whatever may ap pear to me to be abuses of administration either of principle or practice, and in endeavouring tp obtain good and honest government for the people. I have no object in entering that assembly, except to discharge, withhonesty and fidelity, the trust I have vndertaken ; and if I might use such lan • guage, I would venture to say that, like the votary of a beautiful though erroneous creed, I would keep alive the sacred fire of honesty apt patriotism on the altar of my country; even ha the miffsf - of the frritiated-attneepiterp of a self-seeking and luxurious gener4ion—or in more homely but sincere phrase, I would, in tle language of the Cate chism of the Church of England, ndeavour .to do my duty in that state of life to which your 'favour, your considera tion, aud, I would humbly hope, 43me portion of your con fidence, may have called me.

Mr. Darby Griffith, having announced a public address to his constituents and the inhabitants of Devizes on sub jects of " political interest," to be delivered at the Town Hall, was met there on Tuesday evening by a crowded con course. The hon. gentleman's address was long, and ern braced too wide and miscellaneous a crowd of topics to admit of more than the most cursory notice at our hands. The first, and by far the greater part of it, consisted of a series of sketches and anecdotal memoranda relating to his recent tour in Southern Europe, which were strung together in chronological order, and formed altogether an amusing and not uninstructive melange, richly characteristic of the races of people there inhabiting, and the political movements with which the different sections of the Austrian empire and the Italian peninsula are now convulsed. Interspersed were descriptive and classical allusions to various places of interest visited by the hon. gentleman—the ancient Dacia, Pest (with Buda), Hungary's capital, and its neighbouring regions; the victorious crusade of Trajan eastward thereof, and the spots his arms and his subsequent achievements made memorable in story. Mr. Griffith then took his audi tors through the provinces passed in his route to Italy, via Fiume, Pole, and Trieste. The three latter places were conspicuous as noted seats of the arts, &c., in ancient Istria; and the wondrous proportions and general aspect of the famed amphitheatre of Pola were well described by the hon. speaker, as were the geographical, physical, and other noteworthy features of Fiume—which, though the only part of Hungary proper, could not be depended on as a secure harbour. Reviewing the political and social state of these southern Austrian provinces Mr. Griffith said that it was no longer a doubtful fact that they were ripe for insurrection, and that the embers of revolution are smouldering impatient for outbreak. Hungary's grie vances were unquestionable, and a spirit of conciliation had not marked Austrian supremacy—yet it were unwise in the former to attempt to achieve any so• called "na tional independence," and worse than doubtful policy for England to favour so questionable an enterprise. Austria had been our old ally, and if—as really now appeared to be the case—now that the Metternich policy is not completely paramount in her councils, Austria desired to introduce reforms into, every branch of civil and judicial administra t•ion, and to heal old sores—better would it be, both for those communities and the interests of Europe generally, were Austria Proper and her dependence to accommodate matters and come to some understanding. (Cheers and counter de monstrations). Austria, it was true, had long, and after every lesson received both in Hungary and Italy, persisted in a course the reverse of conciliatory. Her agents and subordinates were insolent and overbearing after every suc cess. They exasperated, where their true policy would be to win over by gentleness and moderation. To instance an atrocious case within his own cognizance : An Austrian officer lodging at a lady's house, on the first storey of which ran a balcony fronting his own suite of rooms and others„ unoccupied, and which the lady herself temporarily used, went out on the same to smoke a cigar, when finding his landlady at the other end taking the evening air (in Southern fashion) he ordered her off! She declined to retire, mildly stating that that part of the balcony fronting the unrented apartments and opening from the windows thereof belonged, by established usage, to those apartments. Impatient of resistance to his arrogant behest, this gallant soldier em ployed force to obtain its demand, to which, as the high spirited dame opposed her own, the military policeman snatching his sword from its place in the house, cut her down, and so disabled her from continuing the unequal con flict. But the sequel was the worst, as the cold-blooded and cowardly incident caused no particular sensation, and was unnoticed by the authorities. (Shame ! shame !) The cases of Hungary and Venetia were, however, widely different— Hungary had formed an integral part of the Austrian Em pire since 1437—Venetia had only been annexed for 46 years. Her liberation was both just, and in his (Mr. G.'s) opinion, inevitable. There were other points of difference. The condition of the. Hungarian peasantry was shown to be greatly better, particularly in the comfort of their cot tage homes, to that of our own agricultural labourers. On the condition of the liberated Italian provinces, that of Naples in particular—the chivalry of some, the good and the bad management of the revolutionary leaders, the in discretion of Mazzinian and other chimerical theorists, the sinister action of priests, the hot zeal of those who aim to spread the revolutionary element into neighbouring coun tries, thereby jeopardising all themselves have lately won, Mr. Griffith descanted in full, dwelling with much feeling on unsullied and unselfish patriotism of Ricasoli and cotemporaries of his type, and passing a warm eulogy on the single-mindedness and unmatched military skill of Garibaldi. Trojan's column at Rome, "purified" by a Pope of its heathenish profanity, and with a statue called that of St. Peter on its summit, was made a topic for much merri ment by the hon. sneaker, who did not spare his Holiness in citing some of the " lying wonders" which are used to support the system of fraud and superstition upon which the ecclesiastical edifice he presides over is based. Decayed to the core, that edifice of imposture and crime was now tottering to its fall. Mr. Griffith closed his address by referring in some detail to the events of the last Parlia mentary session, his votes and speeches, his freedom froth party shackles, a defence of his own course in the matter of the late Ministerial scheme of reform. He said—There is one imputation that has been rather freely bandied about in certain quarters upon members of Parliament who may I have taken part in the duties and the discussions of the session which really appears to me almost too contemptible for serious notice—namely, that they have been actuated by personal vanity and love of notoriety in bringing their - - views and convictions before the house, oftener perhaps than might be acceptable to some of its members. Why, can it reallybe supposed that a member sent to such an assembly, the great council of the nation, and we may almost say of the world, bould be actuated by such a miserable considera tion as personal vanity in the attempted discharge of such duties, or would a stimuli s of so low and grovelling a nature be likely to inspire him with the moral courage necessary to support him in standing up before so critical and severe an audience, in the maintenance of the convictions he may entertain, irrespective of the tendency of the popular or party cry of the moment ? The noble lord the member for Middlesex, in a speech some weeks back, appears to have inventecl'a very ingenious classification of the House of Commons in relation to this subject. He said, I believe, something of this sort, that in regard to privilege of speak ing, the House of Commons might be divided into the class of, first, the Ministers, . who would in the course of their duty have to speak a great deal ; then secondly, the leaders of Opposition, who would have to criticise the acts of the Government, and therefore must have a good deal to say ; thirdly, would come the class of county members, who were men of high respectability and great social influence, and whatever fell from them, therefore, was entitled to great attention, as they attended largely to the' important business of committees of the house, and used the pri vilege of speech with moderation and discretion.. Fourthly, came all the borough members, and they might be consi dered as rather an intrusive lot—no doubt those who re presented large constituencies and important interests might properly have something to say about the local in terests they were conversant with. The member for Man chester might speak about cotton—the member for Liver pool, about docks and shipping. The member for Sheffield might have a word to say about cutlery and hardware, and 171 E WAR 1N ;CHINA. The following letter appeared in our Third Edition or Saturday eTening FROM A CORRESPONDENT OF THE TIMES. At the time my last letter was despatched we were in complete ignorance of the immediate cause that had led to the capture of so many of our country men, and of the manner in which this had been effected. The return of Parkes and Loch, however, enables me to give you full information respecting their seizure and subsequent treatment, and of all that occurred to the English party until within a few minutes of the former taking place, though their account unfortunately still leaves us in doubt as to the way in which the remaining and larger number were eventually made prisoners. To make my story more intelligible I must to some extent recapitulate what has already appeared in a former letter, modified by such additional infor mation as I have been able to obtain from the late prisoners themselves. It was on the 17th of Sep tember that, accompanied by Colonel Walker; Mr. Thompson, a Commissariat officer, Mr. Loch, Bowlby, de Normann (the two latter as amateurs), and an escort of King's Dragoon Guards and Fane's horse, Parkes proceeded to Tung-chau for the pur pose of having an interview with the • Itaperial Commissioners, as agreed upon at the previous meetirg between them and Mr. Wade and himself a few days before, on which occasion the principal points in dispute between the two countries had been fully discussed, and they firmly believed satisfactorily disposed of, leaving nothing to be arranged at his second coming excepi; various inatterß of detail, the chief of which were connected with the advance of our army and Lord Elgin's residence in the capital. They reached Tung-chau. the same morning, and were lodged in the Temple in the suburbs, which had been occupied by Wa,de_ and Parkes during their former visit. The Im perial Commissioners, in place of allowing Pf,trkes to wait upon them as he proposed, called. upon him here that very afternoon, and had u long conversation with him. The Prince of I, who on this as on the former occasion was the principal spokesman. began by recurring to several points, which in Parkes' opinion had been quite settled at their last interview; he urged that Lord Elgin should not bring his proposed escort beyond Tung chau, but should proceed from that town to Pekin, accompanied only by his-usual suite ; that the Eng lish army should not advance further on the road to Pekin than five li, or a mile and a half on the south - side of Chang-keia-wan ; that it should be withdrawn immediately the Convention was signed; and fourthly and lastly, that Lord Elgin should not insist on having an interview with the Emperor himself. The first and third of these he did not press as if he attached much importance to them, and on Parkes reminding him that these very pro posals had been already hrought forward and after wards given up by himself and his fellow Imperial Commissioner, while, on the other hand, it had never been the intention of the Commander-in- Chief to advance beyond the spot designed in the neighbourhood of Chang-keia-wan so long as there was a prospect of peace being made, he abstained from all further discussion respecting them, and said they should be arranged according to Lord Elgin's views. Not so, however, with regard to the fourth point. About this he was for a time most persistent, and it was with some difficulty Parkes made him understand that it was one which he was in no way empowered to discuss, nor had he or Mr. Wade ever been so ; that it could not for a moment be considered as involving the question of peace or war, but On the contrary was a fair sub ject for discussion after the more important preli minaries of peace had been agreed to ; that under these circumstances he was sure the Prince would see that he had no other alternative but to decline having anything to say to it, though he would of course be glad to repeat to Lord Elgin any obser vations which either he or the other Commissioner might think fit to make about it. More than once Mr. Parkes imagined that the Prince was disposed and about to bring matters to an issue on this par ticular point, and break off the interview, but he at last gave up attending to it, and proceeded to the settlement of the actual business that had brought him and his companions to Tung-chau. He appointed officers to accompany them early the next day, to point out the precise ground on which our troops were to encamp near Chang-keia-wan, and others to make the necessary arrangements for furnishing them with supplies. He named others who were to provide transports for Lord Elgin's baggage and prepare suitable accommodation for him and his suite upon the road ; in fact, before leaving the Temple the Commissioners had arranged everything Parkes came to settle, and when they took their departure late in the afternoon he felt almost certain that his difficulties were. at end. He started at 5 o'clock the next morning, in com pany with Colonel Walker, Loch, Mr. Thompson, the escort of King's Dragoon Guards, and two of Fane's Sikhs, to meet the Chinese officers appointed by the Prince of I, whom they expected to find on the intended camping ground, which they were in hopes of reaching before the arrival there of the French and English armies, who had encamped the night before at Ma-ton, a village distant from it about seven miles. On their way to Tung-chau, the preceding day, they had noticed evid ences o f a considerable force having been recently in the neighbourhood of Chang-kem-wan, but they did not see any large number of troops, or anything in the shape of intrenchments or defensive works. When allusions were made to the Imperial Com missioners on the subject, they replied that what they had seen were probably the remains of the encampments which had been occupied by Sang-ko lin-sin's army before it received orders to fall back on the capital in consequence of the settlement come to a few days previously, and there appeared to be no reason for supposing that this statement Was not perfectly correct. This morning, however, almost immediately after leaving Tung-chau they observed large bodies of soldiers moving toward Chang-keia wan ; these increased in numbers after they had passed through that town, and when they reached the place which it had been decided was to be oc .cupied by the allied armies, they found it in posses sion of the Tartar army, drawn up behind long lines of intrenchments, only recently completed (some portions indeed were not finished), with bat teries placed at various points, in which there were a great number of field guns already in pol tion, while others were being brought up as rapidly as possible. Seeing at once that either some foul play was intended, or that there was some most fatal misunderstanding—which of the two it was not difficult to guess—Parkes questioned several officers as he rode along as to the meaning of all these movements of troops and preparations for re sistance, to which they replied civilly enough that they did not know, as they were only acting in obedience to orders which they had received from their superior officers, to whom they referred him for any further information he might desire to have. Anxious to find some person in authority the party pushed en to the extreme front of the Chinese posi tion, and Parkes was still engaged in vainly search ing for one when the advanced guard of the 'English army came in sight. there would, at that moment, have been no difficulty in the way of their all reach ing the English lines in safety ; but Pafkes felt that the first thing. Sir Hope Grant would do would be to ask ' , n for an explanation of the fait Of his finding ar force drawn up in order or battle on the cry ground which he had been given to understand was to be occupied by the English, an explanation which after his conversa tion with the Commissioners the day before, it was entirely out of his power to give. Knowing this, and unable to find any officer of sufficient rank on the ground to whom he could apply for informa tion, he came to the resolution of at once returning and seeking of the Prince of I himielf an explana tion of the extraordinary proceedings that were taking placd, .andrequesting him to use his autho rity in withdrawing the Tartars, and so preventing a collision between them and the allied forces. He at the same time requested Loch to ride on and in form the Commander-in-Chief of all the circum stances connected with their visit, and of what he was about to do. As soon as this was settled he started for Tung-chau once more. Loch went on to the general, and Col. Walker and the others remained just inside the Chinese lines, intending to wait until Parkes should return, accompanied by Bowiby, de Normann, and Lieut. Anderson, commanding the escort of Fane's Horse, who, not dreaming of any danger, had remained behind when the others left early in the morning, think ing to come out quietly later on in the day. In , nly last letter I told how Loch, after giving his message to Sir Hope Grant, asked for and received permission to go back and rejoin Parkes, and was accompanied by Captain Brabazon of the Artil lery, with two of Probyn's Horse, carrying a flag of truce ; also how Col. Walker, after waiting for nearly two hours riding up and down the Chinese lines, was attacked and had to ride for his life, fortunately with all his party reaching the English army in safety, one or two of them only being slightly wounded ; but I was unable to give you any more information respecting the fate of the former, or of Parkes and the others, beyond what was contained in a letter which had been received from the Prince of Kung, a brother of the Empe ror, and the newly-appointed Commissioner in place of the Prince of I, to the effect that the number of prisoners in their hands was upwards of 30, and they were well and well treated, the truth of which statement your readers will be better able to judge of when they have read the account of what was done to the eight who have as yet been returned to us. It appears that when Parkes reached the Temple where they had passed the night, he found Bowlby and De Normann had gone out for a walk, saying they would return in time for breakfast, After de siring the escort to get their horses saddled and to he in readiness to start at a moment's notice, and leaving a message for the other, be proceeded in search of the Commissianers. He had some diffi culty in finding them, but at last, with the aid of the Prefect of the town, discovered them in a small shabby temple outside the walls, and evidently not at all well pleased to see him. H.• immediately addressed himself to the Prince of I, and requested to be informed whether the position occupied by the Chinese army had been taken up with his sanction and knowledge, and whether he was aware of the imminent risk there was of a collision taking place between it and the French and English troops if it was allowed to remain where it was. The reply of the Prince was not only evasive, but given in a half jeering, half insolent tone, which Parkes had never observed him make useof before. When pressed to give a direct an swer, he admitted that he was aware of troops being there; but what could Parkes expect—he had not been willing to settle the day before the point re specting Lord Elgin's seeing the Emperor in person, so that he could not consider that matters were as yet entirely arranged ; and even if he had wished or should wish to withdraw the Tartars, he was not the Commander-in-Chief--but Sang-ko-lin-sin—by whom alone such an order could be given. Mr. Parkes pointed out the absurdity and falsity of such a reply, but to no purpose; and, after some further conversation, which he at once saw would lead to no satisfactory result, and was continued by the Prince in the same insolent, indifferent tong as that in which he had commenced it, he left the Commissioners, throwing upon them the entire responsibility of having broken off the negotia tions. It was evident to him either that the Prince was really unable to exercise any control over Sang-ko-lin-sin and his army, in which case it was useless to waste time in talking to him ; or, what was more probable, that in consequence of the arrival of large reinforcements of Mongolians and Tartars from beyond the wall, subsequent to the starting of the allied forces from'tier-tarn on the 9th September, and the appointment of the Prince of I and Muh-Yin as imperial commissioners, it had been resolved by the war party at Pekin to make Sang-ko•lin sin try the issue of another battle, and that the interview he had had the day before, and possibly the previous one, at which Mr. Wade had been present, had been arranged simply with a view to gaining time, and allowing the fresh troops to be brought to the front, which result having been attained the Prince of I was indifferent as to how soon he threw off the mask and allowed him to sea what was really intended; hence the differ ence of his manner on the two days. On his way back to the Temple, where he had left the escort, he met Loch, who, having arrived there safely with Brabazon, had come on to look for him ; they returned to the Temple together, found every one in readiness, and started off on their return to the army at a sharp canter. They passed without difficulty through Chang-keia-wan, and continued at the same pace for some distance on the other side of it, when they came upon large masses of Tartar troops, both infantry and caval r y. A s th e y wen t along a considerable body of the latter began to gallop alongside on either flank, blowing up their matches, getting ready their matchlocks, and clos ing gradually do wn on t h em. S ee i ng t hi s , an d feeling that as th e y were carry i ng a fl ag o f t ruce it would not do to have the appearance of running away, they came to a halt for the purpose of deciding on what was the best to be done. The moment they did so the Mongol cavalry closed up great numbers in front and on either side, completely shutting up the road in the direction in which they had been going. An officer came forward, and, in reply to Parkes, who told him that they were under a flag of truce, and wished to pro ceed without delay, said that he knew such was the case, but as guns had been fired and the action must have already commenced, he could not allow them to pass without the permission of his General, who was close by. I omitted to mention in its right place that shortly before they halted they heard at no great distance a discharge of gin gals and heavy guns, which were probably those fired at Colonel Walker and the dragoons as they made their escape. For a moment they thought of attempting to cut their way through the troops in front of them, but, besides that, it was almost impossible they should have succeeded in doing E o , they felt it was their duty to exhaust every reasonable means of getting out peacefully before committing any act which might be construed into a viola ties' of the flag of truce on their part. As the Chinese officer had spoken with great civility, and offered to show where his General was to be found, Parkes decided on trying to see him, and asked Loch to go with him, which he at once consented to do, and took with them one of Probyn's two Sikhs, carry. ing a white flag. They arranged with Lieutenant Aibniclee, but rson that th atif they they d would d rnetoutrneoams come soon quickly as had as pos sible, l better not wait, and that i f on attempting to move on he was attacked, he must act as he should think ' best under the circumstances. When they left the escort they were taken by the officer round the corner of a field of standing millet, which completely shut them out of sight of their I friends, and they also immediately found them- 1 selves in front of about a hundred matchlockmen, who Presented their weapons and looked very much Ss if they were about to fire, when an officer ran out and prevented them. Passing through these they came to a small canal, c n the opposite side of which sat an officer on horse back,lcrho beckoned-to them to come over. As they would have had to dismount and gat into a boat in order to do this, they hesitated, but, surrounded as . they were by this time by hundreds of men, resist ance would have been useless, and they were pre paring to obey when they saw a number of persons, evidently of high rank, coming towards them. Parkes soon discovered, from the way in which he was addressed, that one of these was Sang-ko -lin sin himself, and he was puShing forward to make his' way up to him when both he and Loch were violently seized, pushed forward, and forced down on their knees before him. Parkes was beginning .to protest against such treatment, and to explain the circumstances which had led to their being there, when he was interrupted by Sang-ko-lin-sin, and asked their names and positions. On Parkes mentioning his own name, the Mongolian Prince, whom he describes as a stern, somewhat sinister. looking man, with strongly-marked features, indi cating considerabl e t a l ent an d muc h fi rmne ss, out into the most Violent abuse of him, saying, among other things, that he attributed. much uf what was then occurring to his evil influence, that he was responsible for all the fighting and conse-. quent misery which had taken place, and that, heeprould, make him' now that e.t he had got him, suffer for it. He was proceeding - Ili' t hi s . strain - when a messenger galloped up, apparently with important news, for he immediately rode off towards the front, ,accompanied by the greater number of his officers, while Parkes, Loch, and their Sikh orderly were taken into a tent, where their arms and feet were bound, the latter being brought behind their backs and strongly tied together with ropes at the elbows and wrist. bu.ring the time Sang-ko-lin-sin was abusing poor Parkes, the standers by emphasized his remarks and , prevented any answer being made by cuffing the latter on the head whenever he attempted to Make one, each blow being apparently a signal to those who surrounded Loch, who oa these occasions fared even worse than his companion —his beard and hair being seized by these ruffians, and his head pulled down and rubbed in the dust at the feet of Sang-ko-lin-sin's pony. The Prince before leaving had given an order, which was overheard by Parkes, desiring that their friends, together with thd escort, should be secured and sent to the rear. He and Loch listened anxiously for the report of firearms, or some other sound which might let them know whether any struggle took place or not, but as they aeard nothing they were inclined to hope they had started before the order was given, and managed to make their escape. After having been kept in the tent for a short time they were told that Sang-ko-lin-sin had deter mined to hand them over to the Prince of I, as being civil prisoners, and that they were about to be taken to him. They were accordingly all three put into a cart and driven some distance beyond Tung-chau along the great paved road leading to Pekin, but the Prince not being at the place it was thought he was, and their guard being unable to learn anything as to his whereabouts, they were taken about three miles back again, and brought before a Man darin of high rank, holding an important com mand in the army, who • subjected them to a long and wearisome examination. Parkes of course, as being the only one of the three who under stood and spoke Chinese, was always spokesman, but they were all; more particularly the two English men, once more. exposed to the same brutal and degrading treatment as they had been when before Sang-ko-lin-sin ; indeed, nothing appeared to be left undone by this man which, in his estimation, was likely to be considered by them most offensive and insulting. He bullied Parkes in every possible way, and, at last, so exhausted his patience that he told Loch he must feign faintness in order to avoid further questioning and ill-treatment. His ruse, fortunately, succeeded, and they were allowed a short respite, but not for any length, of time; they were soon brought before him again, when his lan guage became so violent, Gild the conduct of those who crowded about them unchecked by him so threatening, that Parkes felt persuaded the scene would only end by their being ordered out for exe cution. Whilst he was still engaged ilk abusing them, a stir suddenly took place among the crowd, some communication was made to him, and a gene ral panic seemed to come over him and most of his officers, for they mounted their ponies and started off in all haste; the three prisoners were at the same time hurried out into the yard by those who remained with loud shouts and threats, and Parkes told Loch he feared it was all over with them, and that he must prepare for the worst. To their great relief, however, at this. moment a cart was rapidly driven up ; they and the Sikh were thrown into it, a couple of officers followed, and they went off at a trot along the road toPekin. According to their calcula tion, it must have been between 2 and 3 in the after noon when they started, and they did not reach Pekiu until about sunset ; they suffered much during the journey, from the tightness of the ropes with which their hands and feet were bound, and the awkward and confined position in which they were compelled to lie; the cart also, being without springs, jolted over the rough road in such a manner as at times to cause them exquisite pain in every joint. Their guardians appeared to enjoy their sufferings, and occasionally, probably to afford themselves some amusement during so long a ride, pulled their arms backwards and upwards, as if to see whether it gave them much additional pain ; they relieved them also of any little articles of jewellery they hap pened to have on • them, such as studs or wrist buttons. On entering Pekin they were taken direct to the Haing-poo, or Board of Punishment, the principal prison of the town, and placed in a small court, from which, after a short interval, Parkes was called into a room in which were some examining officers, asked a few unimportant questions, and then loaded with a heavy set of chains and removed to one of the wards in which criminals of every description were confined, there being no less than 72 in that in which he now found himself. Loch was next summoned, treated in precisely the same way, and pieced in a ward apart from Parkes, in which were 56 wretched prisoners, who hailed his entrance with the horrible shouts and yells it was possible to conceive ; the poor Sikh was, like the others, heavily chained and imprisoned in a separate ward. At midnight Parkes was roused up for another examination, and taken before five officers who questioned him most closely respecting the strength of the English and French armies, made most particular inquiries as to whether the English Government, or at all events he himself, had not many friends inside Pekin, and whether he had not frequently managed to pay visits to the capital, and penetrate within its walls. After com pletely wears ing him out he was allowed to return to his wretched prison and get a little rest. For three successive days were these useless and annoy ing examinations continued, in the course of which he occasionally met with a good deal of rough usage, and every description of insult. Loch had to nndergo but one of them,, they having satisfied themselves at that one that he did probably not know their language. On the third day feetsquare, was put into a small ward by himself. se parated by bars from the larger one, about g with three gaolers in it constantly w atching him. On the fourth day he received a visit from Hat g-ke, who said he had come to cond ole , whe endea ly with him on his unfortunate position, voured to prove was enwtihreieh'of hoeves, his own bringing e about. After some eivi l speeches he l ft , promis ing to see him again. This was on the 22d, and on the 26th he paid him a second visit, on whi c h occasion he assume d a bullying tone, and talked very big, saying that the Great Council had decided favour of war; conductin g himself a ltogether in such a manner that Parkes at once saw he was in hopes of intimidating him, probably with a view to obtaining his assistance in some matter connected with the negotiations. He gave him no encouragement, however, and Hang-ke left him without giving him any intimation of what he really wanted. Two days afterwards he came again, and spoke in a very diiTerent tone. The Prince of Kung, he said, was very anxious to make peace, as well as friendly inclined towards Parkes ; be was extremely desirous that he should write a letter to Lord Elgin to this effect, and let h im know, at th e same time, that he was well, haPPY' and well treated. He further suggested, that if he were to say in the letter that the Prince was an excellent man of business and an en ggs and statesman it could be agreeable to his, feelings s pre epar s possibly the means of improving his, that not having sent position. Parkes told him, the pleasure of knowing the Prince it was, unfor tunately, impossible for him to :o be though he say t hat he w as ; what Hang-ke represented hini N_EIN S PAPER* -.;- -- _,-•ii ':;,-- :''' q ....,'•,/,:'----- ;ft , -', , -- ) r • • --- , -`.--- ---,," p:47 had no, doubt it • was perfectly t 4 - , int. , -,--, ,-J.,...,. .. '"'",/ regarded himself, as he was neitherisirispy 0 -- treated, he should certainly not say Nat , f'. either the one or the other. To this Hang-ke replied that the Prince had only just heard how he had been treated, and immediately i resolved to have his chains removed, which should be done without loss of time. Parkes said J this was not enough; the best and wisest course for , the Prince to pursue would be , as they had been ' imprisoned wrangfr i, to set himself and Loch at liber.. . ~..ee, i-,,, , if he would not do this he ought to take them out of prison and let them have pro- 1 per accommodation. Hang-ke undertook that this should be done as regarded himself. but that Loch should be liberated was impossible, it was useless to think of it. Parkes then said that as they had been taken together, so they must be liberated to gether, or no letter to Lerd Elgin would they get out of him. Hang-be, as he expected, said he would see what could be done, and the next day, to Loch's great surprise and still greater joy, Parkes, without his chaius„ asd accompanied by Hang-ke, walked into his ward; his own chains were immediately taken off, and they were removed to the Kaoumean Temple, situate in the north of the city, where they remained unt;l•the day en which they were finally set at liberty, being treated during this latter period of their imprisonment as well jn every respect as they had been badly in the former. There is ono fact connected with their prison life which I cannot help thinking worthy of very prominent notice. I mean the extreme kindness shown to them by the Chinese prisoners. Parkes and Loch, and not only ' they but the other prisoners all speak of this in the warmest terms. Such conduct stands out in strong and inexplicable contrast to that of the Mandarins and of the great mass of the people out of doors, for in the case of M. d'Ezeayrac de Lanture, wh o was taken prisoner in the town of Zung-chan, there is no question he was assaulted in the first instance by the towns-people alone, and would have lost his life but for the' interference of t a Mandarin. Apparently the same class of people who were ready to tear him to pieces when at liberty, could not show him sufficient kind , ness and attention when confined in the same prison.with him. He had many a townsman of ' Pekin, he ascertained, as companions in his ward, and' soinewho had been in good circumstanceg—but - enooknd ,all they (lid everythins they could to alle ilviate.4s sufferings, and appeared - glad when he was released. The last week of Parkes and Lech's confinement was not the least anxious one for them, for, on the one hand, they had intelligence from Lord.. Elgin, conveyed 'as already desc'ibed, stating that the city was to be bombarded, and on the other they were told by Hang-ke that he much feared the sound of the first gun fired against the walls would be the signal of their death, Fortunately it was not necessary to have recourse to hostile measures against the city, but their escape has been quite narrow enough, and they and;the others who came out with them have every reason to feel deeply crateful that they are once m ore sa f e among their friends. Would that all the other poor fellows were so also. THE NAVY. According to present arrangments the court martial for the trial of the commander and officers of her Majesty's steamer Perseverance for the recent loss of that vessel will take place on board her Majesty's steamer Victory to-morrow. The space between the first and second dock in Chatham dockyard has been cleared of the sheds and other buildings, and in a few days will be taken possession of by Messrs.
