NEWS OF Tilt ]SAY.

fly the arrival of the Overland Mail we are in posses-
sion of advices and papers from Calcutta to the 23rd
ult., and from Hong-Kong to the 16th ult. There is no
special news from Calcutta, and the general ladian news
has been anticipated by the last Bombay mail.
Mr. Loch, bringing the official despatches from
China, arrived at Dever on Thursday afternoon by the
Royal Mail packet Alliance.
The intelligence that Mr. Loch was on board, though
ascertained only a quarter of an hour before the arrival
of the packet, rapidly spread itself over the lower part
of the town, and on the arrival of the Alliance alongside
the Admiralty pier there was a crowd of eager and enthu-
siastic spectators ready to give to Mr. Loch, so fresh
from the scene of the recent exploits in China, a hearty
congratulation on his safe arrival once more upon Eng-
lish soil. On the vessel being brought to her moorings,
Mr. J. G. Churchward, of the Dover and Continental
Mail Service, proceeded on board, and as an old acquaint-
ance of Mr. Loch's offered his congratulations. The
Mayor and Mr. W. H. Bodkin, the recorder of the
borough—the last-named gentleman having fortunately
just arrived at the Lord Warden at the time the tele-
graphic message announcing the departure of the Alli-
ance with Mr. Loch on board had been received—also
offered their congratulations on his safe return. The
Mayor (J. Birmingham, Esq.) warmly welcomed him
on his safe arrival in England. He assured him the
recital of his sufferings had excited the utmost sym-
pathy and commiseration of his countrymen. He felt,
however, that those sufferings had induced the vigorous
measures that had resulted in a glorious, peace. He
regretted the Corporation, in a body; were deprived of
the honour and pleasure of waiting on his landing. Mr.
Loch.tendered his best thanks, and expressed his grati-
tude for -nll the kindness shown him. ' All gracefully
welcomed Mr. Loch, who appeared highly gratified with
the reception afforded him. Mr. Loch reported that

Lord Elgin was expected to leave China early in the
year. Two regiments were about to leave, and twelve
men-of-war were also coming home.
The fate of the entire party of prisoners taken onSep-
tember 18th had been ascertained. The death of Cap-
tain Brabazon occurred first, and he was saved much
of the sufferings which the others underwent: he was
beheaded by order of a Tartar general, whose prisoner he
was; after the Tartar had himself received a mortal wound
The Abbg de Ind *as beheaded at the same time; The
more indifference Lord Elgin displayed talent signing the
convention, the more alarmed the Chinese Government
became : but a Preat retribution awaited the Emperor
and his Government. It was resolUd that the summer
palate of the Emperor should be burned to the ground,
the spot where some of the cruelties towards the pi-
solid's had lieeii peilietrated: Proclamations *ere posted
in Pekin intertiiina the people Of the measures that were
to e tai ti; aild The i•ea'Soils idr The
gardens, palates, temples, and Pagotaas aeupeed a spate
of six or seven miles in extent. Two days were required
effectually to set fire to and destrey all 04Q
The property destroyed exceeded £2,000,000 ster-
ling, exclusive of the buildings. The Chinese were
brought to' terms on other points by a proclama-
tion from Sir Hope Grant; threatening to sack Pekin:
On the .day peace was signed Lord tight and Sit Hope
drant entered accompanied, by sln escort of 600
men and 10d Officerg of regiments: Lord Elgin was
carried in his state chair hy silteeti dhineSe dressed in
scarlet. Sir Robert Napier's division lined the streets
as Lord Elgin passed, followed at intervals, taking up
;strategical positions in case of treachery. His lordship
was received by Prince Kung. Lord Elgin's Manner
was stern and ealm; lie motioned Kung to a seat on
hi'S right; vbliibh is ethisiderecl the lestest: On the
return of the Ambdiatiffer aild COMMander-iii-phief the
streets Were occupied bf the troops, ed that the capital

many mistakes had been made in intercourse with
foreigners, bntohe hoped for anew state 0:f

hope IStraiit's despatehes to the *ar-oifiCe, affifed in
London at a late hour on Thursday night. Next morn-
ing the usual order was given, and the salutes in honour
of the peace were fired at St. James's-park, sind,.by the
Tower guns. (This customary ceremony, we may m-
imetic, is not. gone through until the Wtitten despatches

.to lait evening's Gazette. The Treaty of Tien-
thin of teat year, now ratified, is necessarily reproduced-
at full length ; and, in addition, the Convention dictated
at the Wall; of Pekiri: The papers also include a very
letigthbiled find iiiilst intaiestirig account of his Captivity
by Mr. Parkes, which every one has been wishing for
since the last mail arrived without it. As there has been
some dispute as to the amount of the indemnity now
obtained, we may state that it is only 8,000,000 taels—
,nearly £2,900,000. The first official telegram stated
that " the indemnity fixed was doubled"—and as Lord
Elgin at, Tien-tsin this year, fi±ed the indemnity at
8,000,400 4ed indeuniitY.i?vaidiiiciPated
to arciOunt:to 16,000,000 taels. But the indemnity alltided
to as doubled was the indemnity of 4,000,000 taels,
fixed by the Treaty of Tien-tsin last year. It would thus
appear that as regards the money indemnity Lord Elgin
has not demanded more than he demanded immediately
after the taking of the Taku forts—excepting the
3,000,000 taels (over £100,000), demanded as solditem
for the families of our murdered countrymen. We must
say that it seems most extraordinary that Lord Elgin
should haire Contented hlitiself with such a comparatively
0)24 sum as 42,b00,006,. considering the Unparialelled
perfidy
,Of the Chinese Government; and thb unpre=
eedefited Cost of an elpeditieti to China, and we almost
incline to the Oil-deli that there Mlist be. dditie mistake;
bid Lord Elgin's despatch will serve to softie the
The amount also obtained for the benefit of the families
of the murdered Englishmen, 4100,000, appears
singularly inadequate, considering that, including Capt.
Brabazon, four of the victimsvere gentlemen of social
position. We quite expect to find that- Lord Elgin
accepted this miserable sum for some special reason.
The payment does not figure in the articles of the Con-
tention of Pekin as they are at present known,; and it
was Oiivionsly net tite policy Of. our Plenipotentiary to
multiply the Conditions. of a peace, at that time certain.
Seldom has it been our lot to peruse a narrative so
striking as that which the China mail has brought to
England. It is the romance of matter of fact—romance
hardly credible, some would hay, in the iron-fisted, iron-
headed nineteenth century; but these are they whose
mental eyes are purblind, and who hate forgotten the
Indian inUtinY, the' Italian drama, and the Syrian mas-
sacres. The nineteenth dental Is just as full of
romance as any other century since history, With inter-
mittent pen, undertook the task of chionieling the
doings of the human race.- if proof were wanted, here
it is in the Story of the Chinese expedition. And what
a contrast is there between the accounts of Pekin and
those which are given by the eyewitness whose graphic
lettet we hate reproduced,—.the wretchedness of the city,
the luxury of the Imperial abode: Who shall say that,
independently of the vengeance due to us on account of
our murdered totintrytiren, it was not a just retribu-
tion which devoted the palace to the flames ? and,
remember, it was in the Chinese
"quarter, as distin-
. guished from the Tartar quarter, that the only signs of
vitality were found. So it is all over the empire. The
Chinese is industrious, the Tartar lazy ; the Chinese is
itigetiotsi the Tattat stttpid ; all that in China can
lay olaiin ft citilisatfrni comes from the Chinese. The
empire began to' decay froiu the moment when
Tartar Prince otetthreW the Ming dynasty, two bun=
died years ago. its doom seems now near at hand,
and our cont/debt of Pekin may be the proximate eause
of its downfall. For yedte the'enipire has been overrun
by rebels of all kinds, and the tirdeli now giten to the
Imperial fabric cannot fail to encourage 'them. It would
seer, therefore, that we may have soon to reViee our
Chinese policy: Fen' years we have practically made
war only locally in C'h/na, and it may be that the
soundest course in future will tie fer give that policy
its strictest • development. The efrectwa/ assertion

of our power at Pekin will have prepared the way
for a r►doption of this course, by impressing
on all who hear of it t salutary dread of our enmity.
But the further question may well be asked, Who is to
put this land to rights ? "Not these hybrid Tai-ping
Christians," say the Chinese; "no foreigner nt this
time of c.tey at least, if indeed it had at any time Been
possible." And yeti if it be not put to rights, the two
nations most commercially -2rlta,rested, England and
America, meat be prepared to suffer. Prnm, aetrrnis to
have there a missionary interest alone, but unless
order be restored this interest must suffer ; for
it will not pay the great but unshopkeeping
nation to fight for or against this dynasty in a Holy
Sepulchre's quarrel. Where France fights, there will
assuredly be no trade 3 atrd this is not a country .which
yields wealth unless industry be allowed fair elbow-
room. As to Russia : As good Chinese and true, the
Pekinese trust no Barbarian, but of all Barbarians they mis-
trust Russians the most. Our theories about co-opera-
tion between Russians and Chinese are said to be utterly
bAseless, and that it is by no means in the Russians that
we shall find the policy most antagonistic to our own.

A London Gazette' Extraordinary, published last
night, contains the official despatches, brought by Mr.
Loch, confirming the accounts published in another
column.

Intelligence from Gaeta states that since the bom-
bardment has been resumed by the Piedmontese, the
authorities of the place, being convinced of the danger
attendant on the rifled caution used by the besiegers, had
considered it pradent to remove the population who
occupied the quarter of Costa•Smersa to the southern
part of the town. The King passed each night on
board the Spanish frigate in the harbour.
" It is positively asserted," says the Lombardia, " that
Commander Farir,i will be obliged to relinquish the
Lieutenancy of Naples, owing to the state of his health.
His successor will probably be Count Pouza di San-
Martino, who has already been a minister, and is con-
sidered an excellent administrator." A telegram of
yesterday's date announces that Count Cavour contem-
plates retiring from the ministry, at all events for a
time.

The general feeling of indignation against the Saxon
Government for the arrest of Count Teleki will
not be lessened by the knowledge that the Count
was remaining in Dresden with' the permission of the
police in order to transact some family business, and
-was about to return to Geneva the same morning
on which the police arrested him. Though uncere-
moniously searched, no papers of any description were
found upon him. The Saxon Government, however,
hesitated before sending the count to Vienna, and only
did so on the reiterated demand of the Austrian Govern-
ment. Had the latter Government been wise they
would, under present circumstances, have counselled
the count's release, unless they wish to gain credit for
clemency by an act of pardon to him and his brother
exiles.

On Wednesday morning the election of a county
member to represent the Western Division of Sussex, in
place of the Earl of March, elevated to the peerage,
took place at Chichester. Major Barttelot being the only
candidate, was, with the usual formalities, declared to be
duly elected. The gallant major then addressed the
assembled freeholders, announcing his determination to
support sound Conservative measures, such as were best
calculated to further the true interests of the country.
A public meeting was held at the Exchange-rooms,
Preston, yesterday, to consider the propriety of forming
a rifle association for the county. The attendance,
though limited, was most influential; eloquent, and effec•-
tive speeches were delivered, and resolutions passed.
Amongst the resolutions passed was the following:—
" That a provisional committee be appointed, to consist of
the Earl of Sefton, Marquis of Hartington, Lord Grey
De Wilton, Lord Stanley, Hon. A. Egerton, Colonel W.
Patten, Lieut.-Colonel Bourne, Lieut.-Colonel Adam
Gladstone, Major Blundell, Major Grey, M.P., Captain
Brookes, the Mayor of Manchester, the Mayor of Liver-
pool, and the Mayor of Preston; and that Mr. John
