" To th e Chairman Chamber of Commerce, MACG M an ß cheste EGOß r," Cy. " In reference to the first a op rticle ) , defining,the limits of the Port, I ha ve on l y to observe that, while the pass which forms r limit is too well marked to admit of mistake, it allows ample anchorage above, to vessels wishing to trade, and below to any driven fur shelter into the river, but not desiring to eater the port. "I trust the third and fourth articles will also be consi dered satisfactory; the former perrifitting vessels freely to liter and rema i n without incurring port dues, unless they ;11d a market fur their goods; the latter establishing the 4 T in e standa r d an d ru l es for the paveneof duties as are free at Canton, thus, 1 hope, precluding all futuresliscus sions as to the relative value of the sycee in most common and providing against any attempt at extortion similar io that so long and obstinately persisted in at Amoy. "Th* is port may now be considered fairly opened; and if Merchants are disposed to avail themselves of the facilities afforded by the approaching favourable monsoon, I have no 1 1 ; 41 4 they will be well received ; and I am further led to elieve that a considerable demand will arise for British goods, if Judgment be shown in the selection, and t ac t an d Patience m offering them for sale. Should merchants, how ever, freight vessels of consid era bl e b ur d en f or thi s por t an d ! I ! ) ect to dispose of the whole cargo to one person, or even 'e 11 it in large portions to one, two, or three individuals, can only anticipate disappointment as the result. ,„." There is little floating capital, and there are no large monied houses. Nearly the - whole of their own mercantile w'inisactions are carried on by moans of a paper currency, ao 'neit can only be converted into silver to a very limited - 3 - 1 , 1 " at• Of the accuracy of this statement I feel well as , red from multiplied inquiries, and the uniform consis ley of the answers received. " t, Although few or none of the native traders have several 11"iniand dollars at command, I believe there are a large muinber, nevertheless, who are prepared with smaller 4 01111 ti to make purchases of British manufactured goods, to ; For those who may think it worth their while, theref o re, vessels with assorted goods, and dispose of them in and portions, or by retail, there will no doubt be a market, f '" , I should conceive a profitable one. Nor should it be in °l ;" t ten, that in this manner commenced, and by these ( )f a ° , was established, the now considerable trade of Amoy. wiir b u r*, a small vessel capable of anchoring near the bridge ba rd a ve More chances in its favour than one of larger ,;,n obliged to - remain ten miles below the city. in see .m•ishing foreign theth he governor and the Veasurer have both assured me, he unqalified manner, of their anxious desire to see trade established at this port; and as I e lay a i t 3 t e le reason to question their sincerity in this matter, it ve xati safely anticipated that no 'frivolous difficulties or ?ns will be thrown in the way of, the fair trader by the 41 orities tie % • L ATIONB OF TRADE FOR THE PORT OF FOO-CHOW -441.

Thousands of persons will proceed direct from the me tropolis to Margate and Ramsgate throughout, whilst a multitude of others will prefer landing at Sheerness and then proceed by this rail- way, thereby shortening the j .urney and avoiding the sea. ' The importance of a direct line from Sheerness to Dover :is a 'national ohject, and the immense existing tragic in the direction of the undertaking, with . the 'great increase which the improved' and enlarged modes of a' communication throughout Kent will occasion, must be 100 apparent to need further observation ; and the Coninnit tee from careful inquiry feel confidence in stating that no scheme of rail Way has yet been offered to public attention combining greater public and private advantages.

This railway will connect the important and hitherto neglected town of Barnet "with the London and Birmingham sad the Great Western Railways, at or near Holsden-green ; with the Northern and Eastern and the pastern Counties Railway, at or near Totten ham ; and the proposed Direct Loudon and Manchester, and the Lon don and York Railways. The line, in its course, will unite the town of Barnet with Whet stone, Totteridge, Highwood Hill, Mill Hill, Finchley, Holder's Hill, Ilendon, Burrows, Golder's Hill, Gutterhedge, Kingsbury, Neesdon, Wilsdon, Wilsdon Green.

The length of the main line, from the point of junotien at Totten ham to the London and Birmingham Railway, will be 11 miles ; and the length of the branch line to Barnet, will be 4% miles. From the junction with the Birmingham Railway to Chipping Barnet, 9% miles ; from the Decoy (near Brent-street, Hendon), oc the proposed Barnet and North Metropolitan Junction Railway, to the Northern and Eastern Counties Railway, by Stamford-hill, 6A miles. . . • - There are no engineering difficulties throughout the entire distance. The line will proceed beyond the range of the Highgate and Hamp stead Hills, and the branch from the main line to Barnet will follow the valley of the river Brent to the intended station at Barnet,; , thus the expense of construction will be less than any other metropolitan line of railway, for-the above reason, and because it will pass through an agricultural district, avoiding all ornamental property and large collections of houses and buildings. - • Upon the completion of this railway, a large and daily-increasing population; resident beyond the limits of the metropolitan 'omnibuses, will be largely benefited, and land and agricultural produce, hitherto afiordlng an inadequate return to their cultivators, will be quad ruPled .in value. The ancient, populous, and onee-flourishing town of Barnet, too, will stow have a railway communication of its own, without depend ing upon.the caprice or uncertain goodnature of any - company who may hold out a prospect of a branch, in future times; 'from some of the trunk lines now contemplated. An ample return of profit to the investments of shareholders may be safely anticipated, and will arise from the following sources, araongst others :- 1. From the conveyance of passengers. 2. From the.carriage of goods and merchandise from the City and Docks, &c., to the several railways which are intersected by this line, avoiding the delay and excessive cost of conveyance through London t also from the conveyance of cattle, &c., more particularly during the period of the large Barnet fairs. 3d. From the eonveyance of coal, both inland and seaborne file], and other commodities of general consumption, the great expense of which has long been felt by all classes as a most grieve , . c . v... The Committee of Management reserve to themselves the power of adopting, upon this line, locomotive power, or Presser's Railway guide and safety wheels, as may be deemed expedient.

'flits terminus will form the north front of a considerable portion of the widest part of Holborn, between Leather-lane and Gray's Inn-lane.

That the port of Wisbech is the nearest sea-port for Birming ham; Staffordshire, and the Midland districts of England.' 2. That this line will open the whole of the manufacturing and mineral districts of the Midland Counties and the Potteries tolVis bech, the nearest port for Belgium, Holland, Germany, and the nor thern States of Europe. 3. That by the formation of this line a direct railway ommunica tion will be opened between the port of Wisbech, and the ports of Southampton, Bristol, Gloucester, and Liverpool. 4.

Britain at last asserted her rights, with universal consent, . and; with a rare genero,ity, claimed no exclusive advantagesfur lvdr, which would at the time, and for many years, have been too hazardous for any other nation. Besides, we - have made no conquests—we have merely.- asked for, Wand -obtained a station like that long possessed' by the ' Portuguese, in 'order to secure a trade which not only' furnishes a large revenue to the -country, but .supplies one of the great necessaries of life to the lower classes. It would, be difficult to point out any war which was' so just, so•speedily settled, and so productive of beneficial results to the conquered as well as the cod queror. • An 'article appeared in our impresSion of Wednesday, which we are 'auxfouS to impress on the serious attention of the public whilst the matter to which it relates is still of recent occurrence. Where facts are likely to find precedents they cannot be too promptly investigated'. Hai' the Mischiefs that from time to' time fall out in the c3mplications of public affairS, as well as 'in' the business 'of private life, might be avoided or greatly neutralized by acting on this simple maxim. But if the folly and the danger of procrastination i❑ the conduct of their own personal business,• by-individuals, be so unquestionable as' to have passed =from all antiquity— into the most trite of proverbs—of how much more serious prejudice must the 'same evil habit prove to the Welfare of s'lntes Which permit it to creep into the exe cutive administration of their service ?. The article to which we are now recurring announced the arrival of the Banchery at Aberdeen,"frOm Newfoundland, with a short cargo 0' fish. It is stated that " she would have been a full ship had it not been for the, interference of, the Danish fishermen, who have a settlement close to Newfoundland. It is to be hoped that Government will put a-stop to this intrusidn, - and compel the Danes; as they 'do then-end), tokeepWithin theirownlimits We most heartily Concnr in, the hope expresSed by Our Contemporary, the Aberdeen. Heruld. It is impossible to overrate the national value "of our fisheries as a source of maritime defence ; or of cheap, whole some,' and abundant sustenance ; or .of comm_ ercial wealth. BUt there is no portion of our trade so. liable to foreign en, croachment. There is no species of foreign encroachment which extends - itself so rapidly, or which, having been once, permitted totake -place, it is so difficult afterwards effec tually to put down, or prospectively to restrain. And we may go further in denouncing the intervention of our tardy British diplomacy as always most tardy in the assertion of our invaluable fishing rights. Even Lord PALMERSTON , vigilant and decisive as was the general character of his ; management of our foreign relations, was yet severely censured, and we, thought, at the time, not without reason, for the apathy or the indolence with which he had looked on at the aggresaions'of the French ,fisliermen upon our own in the mackarer and other, fisheries of the Channel.

Members for Sussex, and a few other spirited remonstrants, the respective rights of the fishermen of the - two nations were at length redtrced into specific statement, and made the subject of a new convention, which was formally exercised, and now subsists in full force as the text law, as it were, by the rule of which their rights are ascertained and encroachments on them repressed. But even that convention, if we mistake not, was not negotiated and finally ratified without some sacrifices of ancient rights on our own part: The claims of the French fishermen, as made on their behalf by the Government of France, were conceded to an extent which those who, in this country had the reputation of being best informed on such subjects, consi dered quite -unwarranted by the prescription of the past, by recent usage, or by any then existing treaties. This was an oversight the more remarkable, as occurring during the tenure of the foreign seals by the accomplished degcendant of that great statesman who in the treaties negotiated by him, both 'with the Dutch and the French, had taken espe cial care, et the 'Hague, and at Nimeguen, in 1668 and in 1678, to protect, to the best of his power, the fisheries of Britain. It is, however, a lamentable fact, that to France, to Holland, and to the United States, .in the seas of the Old World, and upon the shores of the New, we have, from time to time, sacrificed such important fishing rights with so much facility, that subsequent encroachments by vessels under their flags upon our grounds have. been the rule—respect for the rights of our own craft, on the same stations, the exception. It is high time that this state of things should cease. It has already operated (whether in conjunction with the re moval- or modification of former import duties on foreign cured fish and oils, as Ml. ENDERBY, in a very able pamphlet, has contended. (though, in our humble opinion, erroneously), or simply through the effect of the system of encroachment so pursued by foreign fishers), to the absolute ruin of our whale fishery. It, has very largely reduced the extent of that herring and ling fishery, from the, products of which we for a long time imported vast returns into this kingdom by the supply of the Mediterranean and even the Levant ports. It has, ere now, so int;,lerably trenched upon our Newfoundland cod fishery— perhaps the richest in. the ivorld—as to have proved a main element of the grievances the experience of which has in volved us in war - with Francer—lt is our earnest appeal,' therefore, to , the Government at home—(and the ques tion, we apprehend, fortunately for the interests of the trade, happily for the interests of the country at large, would come' within the cognizance of the foreign, not of the colonial department)-Lthat they would adopt, instant' measures for the effective repression of these first steps in the way of new encroachments on our interests and rights in the fisheries of - -Newfound land. The monstrous importance of . prompt and decisive intervention on such a matter is to' be estimated not alone by the vast - amount of British , capital, shipping, seamen, labour and wages invested in these fisheries, but by other considerations of even a higher and more urgent cha racter in a politi;alpoint of view. We have, for sonic time past, arrivedat a firm conviction, that at no former period of the thirty years' peace we have been permitted to enjoy, was it of more vital importance to the independence; the prosperity, and the Lonour of the United Empire, than at the present hour, to maintain, in their fullest and most available 'efficiency, all the great. nurseries in which our hardy sailors are formed and trained, and to be at all times found, when national exigencies may abruptly require their indispensable services. Of all these nurseries, next to that of our South Sea and colliery trade, the New foundland fishery is the most impoi taut and extensive, and the best entitled to our unhesitating and detenn;necl protection. The account from Madrid are to the 26th of September, and we are glad to find that even some of the Opposition journals admit that the Finance Minister is compelled, by necessity, to raise money by additional taxes. The new system, though highly objectionable as ,regards details, ac cording to the Heraldo, is preferable to the total disorder which reigned in the public revenues before Senor MON came into office. This is not the only instance, however, of reform resorted to by the Government. Gambling, for which Madrid has been •long notorious, is to be put down with a strong band. The Political Chief had issued an edict in which he declares that he will punish, with the utmost severity, both the keepers of gambling-houses and those who frequent them. The punishment for these offences is fine and imprisonment. No public; transactions took place on the Bourse on the 26th. The Paris papers announce three more elections for Depu ties, in the room of those raised to. the Peerage, at all of which the Ministerial candidates were at the head of the lists. In general the candidates supported by the Left have been far below their Conservative opponents, and even at Colmar, a town which strongly supports Radical principles, Conservative candidates only came forward. The Legiii matists everywhere cut a poor figure. The French Bourbon dynasty is extinct, and nearly forgotten by the whole nation. The foll Owing are particulars of the proceedings :—M. LARNAC, secretary to the` Duke DE NEMOURS, a Conserva tive, has been returned for Saint-Sever. At Colmar M. MARAUDE, the Conservative candidate, had 123 votes, and M. GLoxIN, also a Conservative, 115, but as neither had the absolute majority upon the total number of votes, which would be 126, another ballot was ordered for the next day. At Douai, where the required absolute majority is 260 votes, M. DANEL, the Conservative candidate, had 254 ; M. CHOQUE, the candidate of the Opposition of the Left, 225 ; and M. DURAND D'ELECOURT, theLegitimatist candidate, 35. Neither of the candidates having attained the absolute ma jority, another ballot was ordered. M. GARNIER PAGES has lately made a long speech to his . constituents; in which, of course, he made at tacks on England,-. dp4ounced the foreign policy of N. GUIZOT, and announced a great discovery. " France in a short time," said he, " will have no occasion to fight England single-handed, for her neighbours will assist her in pulling down that grasping power." We know not what neighbours he alludes to. The Germane ha're no particular wish in that way, and the Spaniards have quite enough to • do in managing their own af fairs. This notable disco Very is thus praised by the Courrier Francais:—The events. of the last years have brought upon France all' the bitterneSs contained in the entente. cordiale Turned to profit without Mercy , by a tyrannical ally, isolated in the midst of the nations which surround the long line of her frontieis; France has experienced`.all the miseries of the exclusive policy to which she has been condemned. She has, however, after having been led astray by her guides, found the natural route from which she had been driven by the systematic error of fifteen ya-rs. As M. GARNIER PAGES has well observed, France will find 'around her allies for the duel which it is proposed one day to fight with Great Britain Governments and nations are become tranquillised by our position, and it is not in vain that we invoke their sense of justice and right." On Sunday last the KING, accompanied by the Comte de Paris, the Due de Nemours, and Prince Philip of Wurtemberg, Generals Athalin, Gourgaud, d'lloudetot, deColbert, Marbot, and Gerard, and several orderly offi'eers, reviewed' he National Guard of En and the troops of the garrison.

It will be seen, from an official document published in another part of the paper, that the last of the five ports to be opened to English commerce in China, according to the treaty of Nankin, has been placed on nearly the same footing as Canton. This port, called Foo- chow-foo, lies nearly midway between that ancient mart for British commerce and the city of Ningpoo. From the accounts published, it is not likely, at least fur some time, that this place will afford scope for commercial transactions on a grand scale; but in this we see little cause for regret, as the circumstance may have the effect of checking over-speculation, and accustom ing " the inhabitants by degrees to the use of British manufactures. Though the town is not of great extent, when compared with others on that coast, it adjoins popu lous districts, it will give an opening into the interior, and afford a means of communication between British vessels and the rich countries traversed by the great canal. This is the last of the victories gained by the Chinese war, and it is gratify ing to find that there is every . disposition on the part of the authorities to carry out the conditions of the treaty in good faith, and promote a flourishing trade with foreigners. It requires only prudence, fair dealing, and peaceable conduct on the part of the British traders to render the intercourse mutually beneficial, and we leave little doubt that the firm conduct displayed by Sir 11. POITINGER in repressing irregularities and enforcing the conditions sanctioned by his name, will be imitated by the British Consuls at the different ports. In every respect the , Emperor of C HINA h as adhered to his engagements. Ile ias' regularly paid the ransom money, he has taken no steps to .discourage commerce, nor shown anything like a wish to retaliate for what, no doubt, considers the severe terms imposed upon him by force of arms. Ile seems, indeed, to regard his 'present con dition as the result of destiny, and submits to it as to one of the unalterable decreesof fate. In adverting to the comple tion of the last article of the treaty, the throwing open of the port of . Foo-chow-fog, it is hardly possible to avoid reflecting on the vast change which has taken place in all our commercial transactions i n th e East by, the Chinese war—a war, too, not courted by us, but forced Upon us by the wickedness, insolence, and cruelty of the Cant , m authorities. For two hundred years and more English subjects were permitt ed to trad e with China only by , sufferance they were excluded latterly from every spot of th e Celestial empire except,`one , and .even then. th ey were of n the otallo w w e 'e a d ke tl s i t e ,PmroinVialreeg,ehy in Europe. Engli s h men, i n f act s. and rights. granted t o th e su bj ects were often obliged to flee, to the Portu guese settlement for protection -- ; they were harassed ill proportion to the cupi dity and pride of the ruling mandarina, and compelled to submit' to indignities which neither a CROMWELL nor a BONArARTE would have Winked :it fOi one year. Thiout rageous attack upon ELLIOTT and the British merchants at Canton, as well as on all foreigners, brought affairs to a crisis. The cup was full, and so unjustifiable were the whole pro ' not find a word to say a g ainst the measures which ceeclinv, : that. even the invete rate.enemi es of En g land ,could 47://,L,/ GRATIS.
