The unavoidable consequence of this is, that we meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, usele, and even bad books. With the force of thin prejudice on our minds, we with no little reluctance were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the authors of the source and origin of many of the most distressing effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to the character of experienced and judicious surgeons. To quote passages from the work in proof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The result, however, of our careful perusal of the work, has been to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most frightful maladies to which flesh is heir.—Old England. Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled " Manhood," is one of the few books now coming before the public on such a subject which can lay claim to the character of being wrictly professional, at the same time that it is fully intelligible to all who read it. The moral and medical precepts given in it, render it invalu abie. —Magnet. The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood," has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, the never-failing consequence of the vicious habit of which it treats. The clear connexion pointed out between the assigned cause and the effects is perceptible to every capacity. We strongly recommend the work.—Age. The multitude of books daily coming from the press, same, nay most of them of a very questionable tendency, made us ex. tremely reluctant to take up another. Flaring, however, been induced by the character given of this work by an intelligent friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesita • tinn in saying that we arise from its perusal instructed 'and edified. The clear exposition of the source of many of those diseases l which proves so fatal to youth, and which are set a e f a r t r a y r . y v a i e n t s a , y . s c e.a own by the every-day observer as the result of common h as exposure to cold, sudden vicissitudes of tempe ng a a n s d m e e x s extre mely mc ue u ri yt r sa , a have shown that many diseases, such as Pulmonary satisfactory," fa t c r t u o l ; l y e , n i v n i a n s e m i h may, Consumption, ~eE n p t i im;,i n& c, ;, o ph e i r t ht e i r to, t he opprobria of . medi cine,. judi cious treatment, be brought Ef. l to as m e fa a v n o d ur s a u b b le m . f a a s r a i n n y s e ay th in er g c t l h a a s t s i a tte t d er intomatio n producing so useful, vvraotri stork e entitledJou rn Journal. . ec ions.

OSBORNE, " Gentlemen,—l write - to inform you that. I hare returned on foot from Liverpool, and many of my old friends here are indeed astonished at my altered appearance and activity. I must also inform you that my brother-in-law, Mr. W. J. Barres, of this town, has, through my wonderful restoration to life and sound health, made use of Parr's Life Pills, and their effects on him have, if possible, been even more miraculous than on myself. He had suffered from a mo•t distressing asthma, cough, &c., for above seven years, but, after using one box at 2s. 9d., is quite a new being. The most remarkable part of his case is this—his finger and toe nails, which had become so diseased that they were quite unsightly, have been replaced by new and perfect ones. This has been con+idered by many who have visited him as a curiosity and wonder ; for my part, I have ceased to wonder at any cure effected by Old Parr. I:continue t' enjoy the best of health and spirits, and am yours very re spectfully, JOHN OSBORNE, " Late of her Majesty's 52d Regiment of Feot, dis charged incurable by the Regimental Doctors. " Hinckley, July 27, 1841." In no one instance has this in"aluable Medicine failed, when du'y persevered in, to afford relief, even in the oldest and most inveterate cases ; if any, from want of confidence or fickleness, discontinue their use to, early, and thus leave unaccomplished what they desired, are they to attribute the fault to the medi cine? Certainly not; but to their own love of change and want of patience. Celsus has justly remarked, that " Diseases slow in their progress go off very slowly ; and that time is ne cessary to remove the deeply-rooted evils which time has occa • slotted." This should be borne in mind by all suffering from disease deeply. rooted in the system, to impart patience and per severance in the use of this medicine ; and where the disorder seems obstinate, they may rest fully assured that time will effect a radical and perfect cure. .10 See directions given with every Box.

The packet-ship, Stephen Whitney, was to sail next day. In the Senate, on the 10th ult., Mr. Calhoun of fered a resolution, calling for information in regard to' the case of the murder and mutiny on board of the Creole, and asking what steps. the Exe cutive had taken in reference to the transaction, having for its object the punishment of the guilty, the redress of the wrong done to American citizens, and the insult offered to the American flag. On the 11th the resolution was taken up for consideration. - Some debate having arisen on the prcTooSal of an amendment to substitute " persons" for " slaves," Mr. Calhoun condemned publications which had applauded and justified the mutiny and murder, the tendency and ob ject of which were to fortify .the pretensions of Great Britain in hostility to the rights of the United States. He warned thd south to awaken from their lethargy, and to guard against combi nations ever menacing their institutions. Se veral gentlemen having delivered their sentiments on the subject, Mr. Clay rose to deliver his. He had, he.said, witnessed the occurrence on board the Creole with deep regret, because it added infinitely to existing difficulties with Great Britain. A case had occurred, in which by mutiny and murder a ves sel was thrown in the power of Great Britain ; were they to give up the murderers, or to indemnify the United States or not ? If not, then Americans were denied the freedom of their own coasting trade, and no vessels could sail from one port to another in the ,southern Atlantic border without incurring the risk of seizure. He hoped thet Great Britain would see the necessity of doing America justice in this case. Mr. Calhoun's resolution was adopted nein con.

Resolutions were before the Legislature of the State of New York strongly condemning the doctrine of repudiation of , debts, as sanctioned by and acted upon by several States. "We now," .says the Journal of Commerce, "breathe more freely that we discover an honest purpose on the part of our fellow-conntrymen not to turn swindlers and knaves." The Legislature of Penn-. sylvania had agreed to resolutions also strongly condemnatory of the infamous repudiation' doctrine.

NEWPORT, ISLE OF• WIGHT, FEB. s.—This highly respectable and old established firm stopped payment at one o'clock this day, and filled this town with consternation, there being no run upon it. There is no doubt but the malicious reports circulated to the dis_ credit of Sir R. Bassett and Co.'s bank, and the consequent run upon it, also injured the Messrs. Kirkpatrick's circulation, and caused many of the deposits to be withdrawn ; still their credit stood very high, and their stoppage must ruin many and injure hundreds. T heir principal circulation was in Newport and Ryde. (FURTHER PARTICULARS.) NEWPORT, ISLE OF WIGHT, JinX 6.—This town was thrown into ;the greatest consternation, yesterday, by the stoppage of the old established bank of Messrs. Kirkpatrick and Co. It uppears to have taken place in consequence of Messrs. Rogers and Co., their London agents, not honouring their orders to pay the acceptances &c., due in London on the 4th, of which they say they had not the slightest intimation; if so, tradesmen are in nice hands. Various are the rumours as to the ultimate loss ; some say they will be able to pay in full, others that there will not be five shil lings in the pound. It looks bad their stopping in the absence of any rnn upon them : a gcoti man may be run to a stand still, and stop, but when a man falls without any visible cause it looks as if there was something weak about his constitution. The Messrs. Kirkpatrick have been always close men of business, living at no expense, with a high character for honourab'e deal ings, but they have met with many losses, not by speculations, but by over-confidence in parties doing business with them. Their principal circulation was in Newport and Ryde, at which latter place they h.d a branch bank, but the number of failures lately has very much "contracted their issues of paper. Quite a panic prevails, to stop the consequences of which a notice has been posted, signed by Sir R. Simeon, Bart., G. H. Ward, Esq., Mr. John Cooke, Mr. E. Way, and fifty other landowners, merchants, and tradesmen, expressing their confidence in the banking establishment of Sir H. Bassett, and Co., and their willingness to take their notes as cash. This ought to restore confidence, the above four names only standing like as many hundred thousand pounds, but people are so frightened that no. thing but gold or Bank of England notes will do for them now. Their liabilities in Cowes do not exceed sit thousand pounds, but they are very heavy in other parts of the island. EXECUTION of JOHN DELAHUNT. The execution of the murderer Delahunt, at the front of the county gaol, Kilmainham, this day, attracted immense crowds of all classes. Such was the prurient curiosity of some, that they slept in the neighbourhood, having paid profusely for,the occupation of windows in the front of the drop, and fearing that from the crowds they would be disappointed, obtained access to the i r hi red perches. At an early hou r crowds of lien, wo men, and chil. dren arrived from town a n d country, and the vast area was a living mass of human bein gs l ong before the hour fi xe d f or the execution had arrived T he general feeling exhih i ted was more of gratification or sat i sfaction, rather than pity for the wretched culprit. Three Homan Catholie priests were in attend ance upon him at an early hour in the morning, and he eontinued engaged anxiously in repeating the p rescr ib e d f orm ularies of prayers and litanies up to the lat es t moment allowed him to l i ve. H e was so faint and exhau s t e d as to be scarcely able to mount the stairs to the press - room, his p r i nc i pal horror b e i ng to have his ears saluted with the horrific groans and ells which were uttered towards him on and after his trial. When the cap was put on and the rope adjusted, he became very faint, with scarcely the sensation of life about him ; he was helped out upon the trap, when his strength gave way, and in a second or two the bolt was drawn and the wretched man launched into eternity. The crowcrof men and women on the instant set up a yell, but the priests in their robes on the drop put up their hands to allay them, and succeeded. There was not a motion visible in the corpse after it had (alien. The crowd remained, to a great extent, until after the body had hung the prescribed half-hour. After being cut down it was placed in a shell and buried in one of the prison yards. The fellowing is a copy of the confession which he was desirous of having drawn up, and which was not to be published until after his execution!— t t h h e a t It l a h l had b n o e y i h e h w a a n s d , t l a , t t , n n i o g r h p t a i r n t i t t o i w t the . de at I ' Or a t G e a i r ) ? i s b i t a i r v d e o l . I In a few days after the commission of the deed I went, accompanied by my brother Thomas, to view the spot. Seeing many persons climbing over the wall and going into the Marquis f Ely's de mesne, we went over the wall also. As it was coming nigh Palm Sunday, my brother broke down a branch from one of the trees, and we brought it home. When I was afterwards confined in the Castle, as a Crown witness against Cooney and his wife, my mother came to see me, and it occurred to me that by referring to that branch of the tree at my home it would corroborate my testimony. I accord. ingly bid her say that I brought the branch home the night of the murder, which she did, and in referring to this circum. stance, and having been sent with head.constaLle Towers to see if my statement was correct, I at once pointed out the tree, and thus obtained more credence for my story ; but I solemnly assert I knew nothing of the facts of the case, unless by reading them, as detailed in the newspapers. I swore against Cooney and his wife. in the hopes of having pay at the Castle ; I also swore against the men for the assault on Mr. Cradock fur the same motive. and without knowing one of them. When I saw the procla mation offering the reward. I went to the house where Mr. Cradock lived and got all the particulars from an old woman, and then went and swore against the men. I accused them by mere chance. What I stated of them was false. As to the child Thomas Maguire, I do now confess that the hope of getting again into the pay of the Castle was my strong mo tive for committing the deed.

My right hand was then down in my coat-pocket, when I asked him the second time had he lumps in his throat, and began again to feel him. He raised up his head to let me feermore easily.

Gallery of the House Mr. Feargus O'Conflor was We have received by express from Marseilles the important intelligence from China and India brought by the Prometheus steamer, which arrived at that port on the night of the 2d inst., with the Overland Mail. The dates by this intelligence are from Ningpo to the 20th of October; from Chusan to the 25th of that month ; from Amoy to the sth of November ; from Macao to the 15th of November ; and from Bombay to the Ist of January. The present mail conveys the highly important in telligence of the recapture and reoccupation of Chusan, and the taking of Chinhae and Ningpo. Tinghae (the capital city of Chusan) fell on the Ist of October, and Chinhae on the 10th, after spirited resistance, but not a sword was raised, or a musket fired, in defence of Ningpo, of which our troops took possession on the 13th. The loss of the Chinese, both at Chusan and Chinhae, was considerable : that of the British very small, considering the extensive nature of the opera tions, and the determined opposition 'offered. Large collections of ordnance, matchlocks, swords, and other weapons of war, and great quantities of ammunition, fell into our hands, together with the whole of the Government stores of grain. Everything is quiet at Amoy. The troops are healthy, and provisions continue cheap and easy of obtainment. The people evince much good-will to wards their new masters ; and it is reported that a deputation waited, some time ago, on Captain Smith, the senior officer, to request that he would assume in ab d o e u s t t destroying r l a e t e j on u l n y k s s 3 , n w p l t l o i c m h o a f r e u n v f e r r i y e n n d u l y the office of Mayor.

The resolution of these doughty warriors soon gave way, for on Captain Smith threatening them with a fate less terrible, the flotilla was dispersed, and their design abandoned. At Canton the Chinese are making every possible exertion to rebuild the• fortifications and defences ; in fact, industriously endeavouring to draw down once more the vengeance of their foe. These people are certainly distinguished in a most eminent degree for reckless daring, if for no other martial attribute. Hong-Kong has been pronounced by a. medical committee as " utterly unfit for the residence of Eng lish troops."

TILE RIGHT HONOURABLE TIIE EARL OF AUCKLAND, G.C.13 , &C., &C., 84c. Wellesley, at. Chusan, Oa. 4, 1841. My Lord,—l have much pleasure in reporting to your Lord ship that the Island of Chusan was re-occupied by the com bined forces of her Majesty on the Ist instant. My last communie•ition from Amoy on the 31st August, will have informed your Lordship of our hopes of immediately quitting that anchorage ; but a continuance of bad weather prevented the expedition from putting to sea before the sth of September. We were, however, favoured in our progress to the northward with fair but light breezes until the 13th, when the north-east monsoon set in strong against us, with thick weather, causing the unavoidable separation of many of the transports, and it was only by considerable perseverance, and taking advantage of the tides on shore, which we were enabled by the regularity of the soundings to approach with confi dence, that we succeeded, on the 21st inst., in reaching the Chusan group of Islands, where I had the satisfaction of col lecting several of the missing ships and steam-vessels, and gained the anchorage off the little Isle of " Just-in-the-way " on the 24th, with the preconcerted intention of making our first attack on Chilihm, and pressing forward by the Taheas River, to take possession of Ningpo. The transport in which Sir Hugh Gougis and his staff were embarked having fallen far to leeward before we got sight of Chusan, the Cruzes was despatched to convey him to the fleet, and rejoined with his Excellency on the evening of the 25th. The weather was now too boisterous to approach the exposed position of Chinhae ; we therefore, on the following day, made a vary satisfactory reconnoissance of the defence of Tinghae and Chusan harbour, in the Phlegethon and Nemesis steam vessels, and determined on immediate preparations for re-oc cupying the island. The Chinese have been indefatigable in erecting batteries since the British forces were withdrawn in February last; and it is almost inconceivable that so much has been done by them. From the western extremity, outside Guard Island, to the eastern termination of their works, which extend half a mile beyond the commanding position of the Joss-house or Temple bill (now greatly strengthened), there is a continued line of strong battery on the sea-face, principally constructed of mud, comprising 267 embrasures of guns, and 95 of various calibre, actually mounted on different . points, independently of 41 planted on the ramparts of the city, and numerous ginjalls iu every direction. The rapidity of the tides in the different channels to Chusan Harbour is so great as to render large ships frequently quite unmanageable, even with the assistance of steam •vessels ; and the chance of placing them in any precise position for action so uncertain, that it was at once seen our object would be best effected by landing troops, seamen, and matines, to the west ward of the sea defences, and take them in reverse. We found a stone-work with eight embrasures, constructed near Guard Island, to defend the point on which we proposed to disembark the troops, but no guns placed in it. About 1,200 yards above it, on a steep hill, was also a strongly fortified encampment, in which a large body of Chinese were posted. Captain Eyres we; therefore detached with the Modeste, Columbine, and Nemesis, to anchor close to the battery, and prevent its occu r pation, or any movement of the Chinese to strengthen their position : this duty was, with the usual zeal of himself, Com mander Clarke, and Mr. Hall, most effectually performed, and a considerable breach made by the Nemesis's guns in the wall of the fortified encampment. A continuance of north-east gales with incessant rain ren dered it impracticable to move the fleet from the anchorage off 1 " Just-in-the-way' before the 29th, when we reached the outer harbour of Chusan with part of the transports. The Blonde, Modeste, and Jupiter, with the Qiieen stearti vessel, immediately proceeded to take up a position on the south side of the Macclesfield and Trumball Islands, to cover and assist a party of the Royal Artillery under Captain,Knowles, in erecting a battery of one 68 and two 24-pounder. bowitzrysk against the Joss House-hill and the adjoining ',pi*, whlbb kept up a frequent but ineffectual fire, and this sermosewasirTfis infinite labour accomplished with a celerity that risOrctst ‘ it, credit on all the officers and men employed on it. • The Wellesley was moved as close as possible to thOnterided point of landing ; the Crtiizer and Columbine were advanced within two hundred yards of the beach, and by occasional well directed shot from those vessels, and shells from the Sesostris, the Chinese were completely kept in check. The remainder of the transports having joined in tcie course of the 30th, and the preparations being completed, the disem barkation was ordered on the morning of the Ist instant, in two' columns, the first, about 1,500 strong, to take possession of the heights, and then to move on the city ; the second (to winch the royal marines and a party of seamen were attached), alto gether 1,100 strong, to carry the sea line of battery. by pushing round on their right, and proceeding to make a lodgment in the suburbs, to attack the Joss-house Hill. Our resources in boats did not admit of more than one column being landed at a time, including a portion placed in the Phlegethon and Nemesis, and finding these small vessels had scarcely power to tow the boats with the troops against the title, I was compelled to keep the Sesostris to facilitate their disembarkation. With this additional assistance it was nearly half-past ten o'clock before the first column, under the gallant Commander-in-Chief, reached the shore, when they were assailed by a heavy discharge of ginjalls and matchlocks ' from the heights, but immediately formed and supported by the fire of the ships, the advance quickly - ascended the hill, and gallantly carried every thing before them ; although a more resolute stand was made by the Chinese than had been pre viously experienced in any encounter with them. The howitzers on the island were opened simultaneously with the advance of the troops to the shore, when the Queen endeavoured to tow the Blonde into a favourable position against the Joss House and Eastern batteries ; the strength of the spring title, however, unfortunately baffled every effort to place her satisfactorily, but the exertions of Captain Bourchier throughout entitles him to my best thanks. The lighter draft of water of the Modeste and Queen enabled them to get into good sitoations, and by the excellence of their fire, in conjunc tion with that from the mortar battery on Trumball Island, the • Joss House battery was silenced, and the Chinese troops driven from that post and the batteries to the eastward of it. The marines and pa"t of the seamen were landed as fast as the boats could return for them, but before the second column got on shot e the Chinese abandoned the western end of their sea defences, which were entered by part of the troops of the first column, who completely cleared the line of batteries, and took possession of the Joss House-hill. The steam-vessels moved into the inner harbour as soon as the troops were landed, to assist in the reduction of Tinghae, on which the main body was rapidly advanced ; the walls were escaladed without opposition, and by two, p.m., the British colours were flying in every direction. Thi:ty-six new and well cast brass guns are mounted in the `batteries, and will be shipped in one of the transports. I be- The unremitting exertions of every officer and man of her Majesty's squadron, loyal Marines, and Indian Navy, through out the operations. merit my warmest commendation. I sub join a statement of the ships present. Captain Herbert of tha Blenheim, whose zeal is always con spicuous, handsomely volunteered to head the landing party of the seamen and marines; and I gladly acknowledge the valu able assistance I have derived from the local knowledge and sk,ll of Captain Maitland of this ship, who has conducted her with much ability in the intricate and difficult navigation amongst these islands. Commander Giffard, of the Cruiser, has been indefatigable in the duty assigned him of superintending the disembarka tion, which he has performed to the entire satisfaction of the General and myself. The fire from the ships and steam-vessels covering the land ing party did much execution ; it was, indeed, directed with such precision that two or three individuals fell by single can non shot, at a distance of seven hundred yards—one of them while in the act of waving the Chinese banners. It is out of my province to observe on the movements of the land forces, but. I may be permitted to express my admiration of the gallantry which was throughout displayed by our corn. panions of the army, and their distinguished chief; and I can but express my regret that circumstances did not admit of the ' officers, seamen, and royal mat ines of her Majesty's squadron, as well as of the Indian navy, participating to a greater extent in the operations of the day. Sir Henry Pottinger has vvithessed all the proceedings of the expedition ; and, considering the lateness of the season, it is a subject of congratulation to his Excellency, as well as to Sir Hugh Gough and myself, that the re-occupation of this island has been secured. Your Lordship may be assured that not a moment will be lost in making the eontemplatul movement of Chinhae and Ningpo, whenever the state of the weather renders it practi cable.—l have the honour to be, my Lord, your Lordships most obedient servant, W. PARKER, Rear-Admiral. THE RIGHT 110 N. THE EARL OF AUCKLAND, G. C. H., &C. Modeste, at Ningpo, Oct. 11, 1841. My Lord—My despatch of the 4th instant, in which I had the honour of communicating to your Lordship the re-occupa tion of Chusan by her Majesty's forces, would apprise you of the anxiety of Sir Hugh Gough soft myself to commence ope. rat i kns against Chinhae, as SO3ll as a change of whether should enable the ships of the expedition, with common prudence, to approach that exposed position. On the 7th the wind veered to the desired point, and every preliminary arrangement having been m .de, not a moment was lost in embarking the troops intended for the expedition. The following day most of the transports were moved to the anchorage of Just- in-tbe-way, four leagues in advance ; and the General and myself, accompanied by Sir Henry Pottinger, proceeded at the same time in the Phlegethon and Nemesis, to reconnoitre the points of our intended attack, where we were fully informed and found that every preparation for resistance had been made. The city of Chinhae, which is enclosed by a wall thirty-seven feet in thickness, and twenty-two feet high, with an embra sured parapet of four feet high, and nearly two miles in circum ference, is situated at the foot of a very commanding peninsular height which forms the entrance of the Tahee river on its left or north bank. On the summit is the eita - Tel, which, from its strong position, is considered the key to Chinhae, and the large and opulent city of Ningpo, about fifteen miles up the river, and it is so important as a military post, that I trust I may be ex cused for attempting to describe it. It sands about 250 feet above the sea, and is encircled also by a strong wall with very substantial iron plated gates at the east and west ends. The north and south sides of the height are exceeding steep; the former, accessible only from the sea by a narrow winding path from the rocks at its base ; the south side and eastern end being nearly precipitous. At the east end of the citadel, outside its wall, twenty-one guns were mounted in three batteries of masonry and sand bags, to defend the entrance of the river. The only communication between the citadel and city is on the west side by a steep but regular causeway, to a harrier gate at the bottom of the hill, where a wooden bridge over a wct di' ch connects it with the isthmus and the gates of the city, the whole of which are covered with iron plates, and strongly secured. The space on the isthmus between the citadel hill and the city wall, is filled up towards the sea, with a battery of five guns, having a row of strong piles driven in a little beach in front of it, to prevent a descent in that quarter ; and on the river side of the isthmus are two batteries adjoining the suburbs, and mounting 22 and 19 guns, for flanking the entrance ; 28 guns of different sizes, and numberless gin j3lls were also planted on the city walls, principally towards the sea. The main body of the Chinese forces were posted on the right bank of the river, in fortified encampments, on very commanding and steep hills; field works and entrenchments being thrown up in every advantageous position, with twenty• three guns and innumerable gingalls mounted in them to im pede the advance of the troops. The principal landing-place on this side is within a considerable creek, close to the south entrance of the river, and across this creek we found a row of pilos driven. Four batteries, mounting 31 guns, were also newly constructed on this side of the river, to flank the en trance, and about half-a-mile above its mouth a similar ob struction of larger piles was carried completely across ; space only being left for one junk to pass at. a time. In short, the Chinese had exercised their ingenuity to the utmost to make their defences secure, and a great amount of treasure and labour must have been expended in the execution of these works, fully evincing the importance which they attached to this position. The plan of attack agreed upon by the General and myself was to land the troops in two columns on the'right bank of the river, inside the small islands called the Triangles. The main body under his immediate command (about 1,040 strong) to disembark a short distance beyond the creek above referred to ; the other (about 500 strong) immediately at its entrance, where it appeared to us practicable to put them securely on shore outside the piles, under tho cover of one .of t:,e brigs; good anchorage being found within a few yards of the spot. The attack of the citadel and city on the left bank of the river was assigned to the naval branch of the force, strength ened by about 23 of the Royal and 12 of the Madras Artillery, under Lieutenants the lion. F. Spencer and Alelesworth; and 50 Sippers under Captain Cotton and Lieutenant Johnston, of the Madras Engineers. It was calculated that the advance of the two columns of troops by different routes, would not only secure every point on the right bank, but cut off the retreat of many of the Chinese; and, by a simultaneous bombardment of the citadel and city, by the squadron, we entertained confi dent hopes of complete success, which has been happily realised in every respect. On the evening of the 9th the whole of the squadron, as per subjoined list, and the transports, were anchored off Chin hae, in convenient situations for the intended operations ; and at an early hour on the following morning, the troops pro ceeded in the Queen, Nemesis, and Phlegethon steamers, and the boats of the transports, to the points of debar kation, where the Cruizer, Columbine, and Bentinck most judiciously took up their positions, under the direction of Commander Cliff:lrd. A few shot from them cleared the shore of about 300 of the Chinese, who had assembled to oppose the landing, and by half-past nine o'clock, under his excellent arrangements, every,. man was safe on shore. ....„ The Wellesley, Blenheim, Blonde, and Modesto were ap pointed to cannonade the citadel and eastern part of the city walls; and the Sesostris, Queen, and Phlegethon, after land ing the troops and towing up the ships to their stations, to shell the citadel in flank and enfilade any of the batteries in the harbour which their guns could bear upon; the Nemesis to join in the attack on the north side, in readiness to cover the lending of the seamen arid marines as soon as it became prac ticable. The citadel hill cannot be approached for an attack by large ships, except on the north side, and the water in that direction is so shallow, that it is only in the calmest weather that they can be carried with safety sufficiently near to fire with effect. The day was fortunately every thing we could desire, and the Wellesley, as soon as the tide served, was towed by the Sesos tris into an excellent position, where the anchor was dropped, about a quarter before nine o'clock, in four fathoms, about 1,300 yards from the citadel and town walls. As the water ebbed, she settled imperceptibly into a bottom of soft mud, and was as steady as a land battery, Commander Ormsby (with very commendable activity) immediately afterwards brought in the Blenheim ; the Blonde and Modesto, favoured by a light breeze, took their stations under sail, and every ship was placed to my entire satisfaction, as close as possible; the Blenheim and Modeste touching the bottom at low water. The precision of the fire, both of shots and shells, from all, exceeded my most 'sanguine expectations ; and the destruction of the works from the commencement of the attack was never doubtful. As the troops on the right bank of the river moved forward,. Commander Giffard advanced the sloops , towards .the entrance of the harbdur, and the steamers all took up very good posi tions and performed excellent service w ith their gu ns ; the y .iiere . for a considerable time under a heavy fire from the river _`batteries, but fortunately sustained no damage. ?!' About eleven o'clock we had the gratification of seeing the British colours planted by the troops on one of the batteries on the opposite shore, and within a few minutes the others on that side were all carried, and the Chinese observed flying in every 'direction before our gallant soluiers on the heights. - " - - - - - - - - At a quarter-past eleven the wall of the citadel was breached by the fire from the ships, and the defences being reduced to a ruinous state, the Chinese abandoned their guns, which they had hitherto worked with considerable firmness, and a large portion of the garrison retreated precipitately toward the city. Not a moment was lost in making the signal for landing the battalion of seamen and marines, with the detachments of artil lery and sappers (the whole under the command of Captain Herbert, of the Blenheim). Before noon the boats were all on shore; every impediment presented by the difficulty of landing on rugged rocks was overcome,_ and the force gallantly advanced to the assault, with a celerity that excited my wannest admiration. An explosion at this time took plane in a battery near the citadel gate, and the remnant of the garrison fled with out waiting to close it. The citadel was therefore rapidly en tered, and the union-jack displayed on the walls. Our people had scarcely passed within them, when another explosion oc curred, happily without mischief, but whether by accident or desiJn is uncertain. Captain Herbert having secured this post, quickly reformed his men, and advanced towards the city ; the Chinese still oc cupying in considerable force the wars of it, as well as the two batteries beneath the hill on the river side, against which our troops had already turned some of the guns taken on the bank A few vollies of musketry speedily dislodged them from both positions, and the battalion of seamen and marines pushei on in steady and excellent order fo attack the city. The wall (26 feet high) was escaladed in two places, and in a short time complete possession [was taken of Chinhae, the Chinese troops having made their escape through the western gates. While in the act of scaling the city wall, a third and for midable explosion took place at one of the river batteries, within a short distance, by which I regret one man of the Blen heim was killed ; there is strong suspicion that it was caused by a mine, intentionally sprung ; and considering the number of our men which were assembled at the time, it is most provi dential that the consequences were not more disastrous. The seamen immediately returned on board for the security of the ships, which, with the rising tide, were moved into secure berths, Captain Herbert remaining with the marines in charge of the town until the evening, when Sir Hugh Gough arrived, and a considerable portion of troops were conveyed across the river in the Phlegethon, to garrison it. I have sincere pleasure in bringing before your Lordshi?'s notice the gallantry and excellent conduct of every officer and man of her Majesty's ships and the Indian navy under my command. To Captain Herbert my best acknowledgments are due fer his zeal for the public service and animating example on all The activity and ardour of Commanders Giffard, Clarke,' Fletcher, and Watson, and of Lieuttant CoHinson in com mand of the Bentinck , has been eminen , lY displayed on this and every other opportunity ; and I have no less pleasure in beating testimony to your Lordship that the same yirit of en terprise and zeal has been conspicuously evinced by (~,, i ntnander Ormsby, Lieutenant M'Cleverty, Master Hall, and . .4laster Warden ; and, indeed, of every officer and man in the aiesm. vessels attached to the expedition. I may he permitted also to notice that any flag Lieutenant; Charles Tennant, hat attended me in every operation since I Wok command of the squadron, and his zeal and attention is deserving of my highest approbation. By official Chinese documents found in Chinhae, we have good reason to believe that the regular Tartar troops, quar tered on the 19th in the city and batteries on the left bank or the river, amounted to upwards of 3,000, of which abort 700 composed the garrison of the citadel or Joss-house-hill ; their less on these points is calculated at 150 men. The troops opposed to Sir Hugh Gough were estimated at ten thousand, and they have sustained a heavy loss, but no amount of force as yet met within this country can withstand the gallant band under his command, into which his active and energetic example infuses unbounded confidence. The total number of guns which have fallen into our halide amounts to ninety iron and sixty-seven brass; the .latter be embarked with ou t d e l a y i n one o f th e transports, with a large quantity of metal, which has been found in a cannon foundry, at Chinhae.-1 have the honour to be, my Lord, your Lordship's obedi en t serva nt,. W. PARKER, Rear Admiral. THE RIGHT HONOURABLE THE EARL OF AUCKLAND, G.C.B:♦ &c. &e. &c. .Modeste, off Ningpo, Oct. 14, 1841. My Lord,—lt is with feelings of the greatest satisfaction that I have now the honour of addressing your Lordship from the anchorage off the walls of Ningpo, on which the British colours are flying. The progress of the expedition has been greatly favoured by the fine weather, which enabled it to complete the reduction of t hinghae, on the 10th instant, and to place the large ships and transports on the following day at a safe anchorage after landing the requisite supplies for the army, for the wind changed to the north-east on the 12th, and blew strong. The ships, however, were all in security, the Blonde, with the sloops and steamers and part of the transports having found sufficient water, and excellent shelter within the Eahea River, a few of the piles having been taken up for their admission. I removed on the 1 tth to the Modeste, and that ne time might be lost in prosecuting our farther operations, I directed Captains Mailand and Herbert, when the Wellesley and Blen heim were anchored off "Just-in-the-way," to return by one of the steam-v, s:els, with the boats and 1.50 seamen from each ship, in reat'iness to advance on " Ningpo," and on the 13th I proceeded in the Nemesis to ascertain thepracticability of hook in the la-ge steamers and sloops up the river. We fo:usd it wide, free from shoals, and carried not less than four teen feetat low water to tiro walls of the city, which appeared not only un-• prepared for resistance, but a general panic pervading the inha bitants, who were evacuating the town in every direction, with their goods and families. Sir Henry Pottinger, Sir Gough, and myself, therefore deemed it expedient to move on it with out delay, to check as much as possible the departure of thy respectable portion of the population, and the ravages which are invariably committed by the lower orders of the Chinese on all property which is left unprotected. The whole of the troops (with the exception of a garrison for Chinghae and the citadel) were consequently embarked on the following morning in the Sesostris, Queen, Phlegethon. and Nemesis, and the supernumerary seamen and marines were distributed in the Alodes'e, Cruizer, Columbine, and Bentinck ; the Blonde being ordered to remain at Chinghae for the sup port of the garrison. Sir 11. Pottinger and the General accompanied me in the Modesto, and the expedition proceeded up the river soots after 9 A at., but owing to some unavoidable delays did not reach Ningpo until 1 v 01.,. when the Nemesis and Phlegethon, which contained a large portion of the troops, anchored within a few feet of a floating bridge, which connects the city at its east gate with the suburbs across the river. The men wets disembarked with the greatest facility by stages from the bows of these vessels. The let'talion of seamen and marines, under Captain Ilerbert, landing at the same time, in the suburbs on the city side, a short distance below them. The gates of the city were all found secured and barrieadoeJ in,ide, but an entrant , was soon forced, when her Majesty's forces m %relied in and took possession without a symptom of resistance, being indicated in any quarter. The mandarins and troops hail all It ft the city, the latter having, since their defeat at Chinghae, refused to fight. Her Majesty's sloops and the steam-vessels are anchored under the walls of the city, and his Excellency the General is actively exerting himshf in securing all the Government property on shore, and endeavouring to establish order, and t-V prevent the pillage of this populous and opulen oc e, where, I am happy to say, such of the respectable inhabitants as have remained evince much less apprehension at the presence of the English than was exhibited either at Amoy or Chosan. From the number of large junks found in the river, the trade with Ningpo, by sea, must be extensive, but an embargo will be laid on all vessels until measures can be concerted for our further proceedings. A few war junks and a trifling amount of naval stores bare fallen into our hands. I beg to off,r my congratulations to your Lordship, on the result of our operations, and I have the honour to be my Lord, your Lordship's, Most obedient Servant, W. PARKER, Rear-Admiral. The Right Hon. the Earl cf Auckland, G.C.B. Head-Quarters, Tinghae, bland of Chnsan, October 2, 1841. . My Lord,—l feel much satisfaction in accluainting your Lordship that Chusan is in our possession, notwithstanding the extraordinary ?,xertions made by the Chinese to strengtbea the defences since our departure in February last, and rather a gallant defence on their part, particularly on the heights west of the city, generally denominated the 49th hint, and along the shore, where as a defence to the inner hat* Lour (which was our former part of attack) a new lino of battery. has been constructed, presenting so formidable a front, that with due regard to the peculiarity of the tides, it , would not have been advisable to bring in the ships of war. 2. The fleet bad passed Chusan, and assembled at an audio rage ttl" Silver Island,: half way between Chusan and Ching.. hae, when, after waiting three days, the continuance of eon. , trary winds, together with the lateness of the season, induced his Excellency the naval Commander- in- Chief to propose a change in the plan of operations, which I mentioned to your Lordship to my last report. I fully concurred with Sir Wm. Parker in the es. pedieney of attacking Chusan first under these circumstances, instead of proceeding to Chinghae and Ningpa, particularly as in a reconnoissance, which we made in the Phlegethort steamer, with his Excellency Sir Henry Pottinger, we aseer. tamed that two forts, were in prog ress of construction upon the base of the heights already named. This reconnoissance eon* firmed me in the opinion which I had previously formed from the report of officers acquainted with the ground, that this would be the most eligible point of attack. I must add that the fire opened on the Phlegethon, as she skirted the harbour, also established that the sea line of battery was sufficiently armed. 3. I shall leave it to the Admiral to detail the isevements of the fleet, but I cannot deny myself the gratification of ex pressing how greatly 1 am indebted to him for his judicious ar rangements and the cordial assistance which I have experienced throughout, anticipating my wishes, at the same time, that the arm over which he so ably presided, has been brought promi newly forward whenever practicable, and I most be allowed to remark that the precision of the fire from the ships surpassed my most sanguine expectations, anti did great execution where ever it could be brought to bear. 4. The greater part of the fleet assembled in the outer road stead on the 29th ultimo, and during that night and the fol lowing day a battery was thrown up on Trumball Island by detachment of the Royal anti Madras Artillery, under Captain Knowles, of the farmer corps, aided by Lieutenant Bidwood, of the Madras Engineers, for the purpose of shelling the Joss-. house-hill, which the enemy had strongly fortified, Mowing out the unfinished plan of our own engineers. The remaining ships having arrived in the meanwhile, it was determined to make the attack on the Ist instant. 5. 1 beg to refer your Lordship to the annexed disposition of attack, which will show what were my intentions. any en the morning of the Ist, the first division, consisting of the Madras Artillery, with eight guns, the Sappers, her Majesty's 18th and •55th regiments, anti the rifle company of the 36th Madras Native Infantry, were placed in steamers and boats in tow of them, anti under the zealous superintendence of Captain Gifford, of her Majesty's ship Cruiser, who conducted the dis embarkation, were landed as soon as practicable, though not without some delay from the extraordinary strength of the tides at this point. Finding that the enemy, whom occasional .ehote from the ships had hitherto kept under cover, now crowned the heights and opened a gallingfireof gingallsand ntatchlealtes and that as some of my men were falling. I deemed.itudvisablo to push on at once the two flanks and a third company af. The • 55th that were first on shore, directing the remainder, who. closely followed, to move up in support. This Autzwasgellanfly, performed under thedireetions of Lieut.-Col. Craigle command= mg the column, and Major Fawcet, in the temporary command of the regiment, and notwithstanding the steepness and rugged ness of the ascent, and a heavy and well-sustained fire from an infinitely superior force, this gallant corps carried the whole extent of the ridge of hills terminating in a fortified camp, and drove everything before them. Lieutenant-Colonel Craigie has brought to my notice the prominent conduct bf Lieute nant and Adjutant Butter, who was with the advance at this point, and seized the first of the enemy's colours as also of Captain Campbell and Lieutenant. Toddy, who led the two flank companies. • 6. This movement completely turned the right of the enemy's posit.ons, and gave us the command of a bridge which led direct on the flank of the whole line of sea defence. The 18th and artillery being landed, and the light guns placed se as to enfilade this line of batteries, I felt it best to change my first intention of attacking the sea defences by the right column, and ordered the 18th at once to push forward to the attack on this point. This was executed with equal gallan try by Lieutenant-Colonel •Adams in the face of a very large force, which contested the whole line with more than ordi nal-) spirit, apparently led by one of the principal Mandarins, who, with several of inferior rank, was killed on the spot, when the Chinese fled, and the 18th pushed on ani occupied the Joss House-hill, which the well-directed fire of the guns on Trumball Island, under the Hon. Lieutenant Spencer, of the Royal Artillery, and of the detached squadron under Cap tain Bourchier, had compelled the enemy to evacuate. Lieu ! tenant-Colonel Adams speaks warmly of the spirited manner in which Captain Wigston led the grenadier company of the Royal Irish in this attack. 7. Considering it advisable to support the 18th I had pushed forward across the valley the light and another company of the 55th, with Lieutenant-Colonel Mountain, who is well ac quainted with the country, and who most judiciouslyplaced them in a position close to the West gate of the city, so as to prevent any support bein g given from the town, and intercept the enemy in falling back on it. The Rifle company of the 55th having joined me, I moved on with the remainder of the 55th covered by the Rifles, for the heights overlooking the 'city to the north-west., which we occupied. During these operations , by the praiseworthy efforts of the Madras Artillery under Cap tain Anstruther, the light field guns had been brought tod summit of the heights, and opened their fire on the walls town. The enemy was now in full retreat through theitn northßone and east gates, although a few guns and gingalb'crl directed matchlocks, continued to be fired from the walls—end „ i _ rwou, • the 55th to proceed to the escalade, whilst Captain _ m ap" al ladders bad been with the Rifles, rapidly passed down a deep Woad d cut off the retreat to the north.
