By order of his Excellency her Majesty's Plenipo tentiary and Chief Superintendent of Trade, &c , in China. RICHARD WOOSNAM. Macao, Oct. 1, 1843.—Friend of China, Oct. 5. We have no arrivals to record this week that have brought any later intelligence from any part of the world than we were previously in possession of, and things are a!l in so quiet a state in China that they leave us almost nothing to write about, and the editorial part of our paper is therefore as scantily provided with news as can well be. The most important matter of the week has been the signature of the supplementar , treaty. On Saturday night last, the 7th instant, his Excellency Sir Henry Pottinger, accompanied by his suite, and several other gentemen, left, in her Majesty's steamer, Driver, for the Bogue, and there met on Sunday, a little behind the Annunghoy Fort, and not far, we are told, from where the opium was destroyed by Lin, the Imperial Commis sioner Keying, and Governor of Canton, Kekung, who received him in a building erected for the occasion, with all the customary honours. Here the signatures of the two high Chinese officers, and her Majesty's Plenipoten tiary, were affixed, after which Sir Henry had an inter view of several hours with Keying, and the gentlemen present at the signing were treated to a dinner. The whole party returned to Macao-roads during the night, and Sir Henry landed here again on the Monday morn ing, and left for Hong-Kong yesterday, in the Driver steamer. This vessel, we hear, will be dispatched for the north about the 20th of this month, and takes, as passengers, the Consuls for Amoy and Shanghai. GOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION. With reference to the Government notification, dated the 2d instant, announcing the intended early introduc tion of the provisions of the new tariff and regulations of trade at the remaining four ports of China, which are to be opened by treaty to foreign commerce, in addition to that of Canton • and adverting to the great increase of intercou rse w i t h and resort of shipping to China, which may be expected to be the result of recent arrangements, as well as to the necessity for strict and defined rules which spring from the arrangements, and more particularly from certain stipulations which have been entered into between the high contracting Powers, and inserted in a pending supplementary treaty, which will hereafter be published for general information, his Excellency Sir H. Pottinger, Bart., G.C.8., her Britannic Majesty's Plenipotentiary and Chief Superintendent of Trade, &c., in China, considers it to be his imperative duty to call the special attention of the masters, owners, and consignees, of all merchant vessels, whatever may be their dais or description, sailing under British colours, that may be at this time in the seas or waters of China, or of her Britannic Majesty's colony of Hong-Kong, or that may hereafter enter these seas or waters, to the law relating to merchant seamen, as laid down in the Act of Parliament of the sth and 6th William IV.. chapter 19, passed in the year 1835, and commonly called, " Sir James Graham's Act." In thus calling attention to the above described Act of Parliament, her Majesty's Plenipotentiary and Chief Superintendent of Trade, deems it advisable to append to this notification a brief memorandum, showing the penalties attached to certain breaches or evasions of the said Act, which have heretofore seen of frequent, and almost daily occurrence in China, and from which much trouble and serious public inconvenience have resulted ; and to notify that all Consular and other officers of the British Government in China, to whose duties it may appertain, will be instructed and authorised to sum• marily enforce the said penalties with regard to all mer chant vessels under British colours, from and after the Ist day of December next, in every instance where they may be proved to have been justly incurred ; likewise that his Excellency the Naval Commander-in-Chief will be requested to issue the necessary instructions to the Captains and Commanders of all her Majesty's and the East India Company's ships of war and steamers, now or hereafter serving on the China station, and to aid and assist the said Consular or other officers in enforcing the said penalties, on receiving an official application in writing to that effect. It is further notified that the same rules are to be deemed applicable to the ports of the military posts of Tinghai (Chusan) and Koolangsoo, so long ai those posts may be garrisoned by her Majesty's combined forces. His Excellency the Chief Superintendent of Trade, &c., is also pleased to determine and declare, that when vessels incur any of the penalties, and quit China before they can be enforced (in the case, for instance, of leav ing any of the crew behind, or discharging or shipping seamen without the sanction of the Consular officer) the consignees, should there be no owners of the vessel, shall be held responsible, so far as the law will permit ; and that in every case where the consignees may not be considered to be legally responsible for the acts of the master of any vessel consigned to them, the most de cided steps will be taken to have the penalties, with all attendant expenses, enforced and recovered by the proper courts of law, whether the vessel may belong to, or be found in the United Kingdom, or India, or any of the colonies subject to her Majesty's, or the East India Company's Government. her Majesty's Chief Superintendent of Trade, &c., in China, takes this occasion to further notify, that he has received a representation from the officers, which is stated to obtain amongst the foreign shipping at Wham poa, of throwing stones and other descriptions of ballast into the river at that anchorage ; and as such a practice would be likely to be still more dangerous and detri mental to the anchorages of the ports of Shanghai, Ningpo, and Foochowfoo, it is accordingly positively prohibited, as well at those ports as at Whampoa ; and her Majesty's Consuls are hereby directed, empowered, and authorised to fine the master of any vessel, under British colours, that may be summarily convicted of a breach of this rule, in a penalty of not less than ten pounds (101.), and not exceeding twenty-five pounds (251.), accrding to the circumstances of the case. All masters of vessels who may have ballast on board, which they wish to get rid of, or who may require ballast from the shore, are directed to report and apply to the Con sular officer on the spot, who will have a convenient place fixed on and pointed out, in the former case for its being deposited, and in the latter from which it may be removed. By order of his Excellency, her Majesty.s Plenipo tentiary and Chief 'Superintendent of Trade, &c., in China. RICHARD WOOSNAM. Dated at Macao, Oct. 4, 1843.
