THE CHINESE TREATY.

(FROM YESTERDAY'S YONITEIIR.)

The Baron Gros writes to his Excellency the
Minister of Foreign Affairs:
Tien-Tsin, July 7, 1868.

" The treaty between France and China wu signed
on the 27th of June ; the Emperor of China ratified
it on the 3rd of July. China is opened to Chris-
tianity and the commerce of the West. Diplomatic
agents, with their families, may flx their residence
in Pekin. The allies and the four plenipotentiaries
will quit Tien-Tain to-day or to-morrow."

Yon were lately informed of the sentence Reseed
on the 14th of August by the Tribunal Correcttonnel
of Saint Etienne on several prisoners found guilty of
belonging to a secret society, and also that the go.
vernment had appealed, demanding an aggravation
of their punishment. The Cour Imperial of Lyons
gave judgment on the appeal yesterday. It has
increased the punishment of Malaise and Gauthier
from two to five years' imprisonment.
We hear from Chalons that preparations are
being made at the camp for the reception of the Em.
peror, who is expected there about the 18th. The
Bth, the anniversary of the taking of the klalakhoff
tower, was celebrated by the troops in the camp,
who lighted bonfires along the whole line. The
officers of the 88th regiment, who had been engaged
at that memorable attack, gave a grand banquet, to
which General Bourbaki, who commanded one of
the brigades in the Crimea, and General llacrot,
were invited. The general, at the conclusion of the
entertainment,went to visit an erection raised by the
regiment, representing the Malakhoff tower, and
which was lighted up on this occasion by numerous
Byes.

Two large cotton spinning mills in the commune of
Msromme, near Rouen, one occupied by M. Piel, and
the other by M. Fleury, have been burnt down. The
fire broke out in the establishment of M. Fleury, and
it is supposed that the machinery got hot from its
rapidity of motion and set fire to some of the loose
cotton. The loss is estimated at 300,000 fr. It is
remarkable that a waterwheel which connected the
two mills was not injured.
The Bourse to-day has been very buoyant, and

It is said that Colonel Charras, who received the
honourable distinction of arrest on the night of the
coup d'etat, is about to marry an heiress, the
daughter of M. Heather, a mannficturer at Alms,
who employs 4,000 workmen. The marriage is to
take place at Bale.
We receive a strange story from Calais, in the
I local newspaper of which it has been printed. The
Bello du Pas-de-Calais tells us that on the Brd of
September a stranger arrived there by the night
train, and requested a permit to embark for Eng-
land. As, however, he had no passport or papers,
except a shooting license granted by the Prefect of
the Loiret, he was not allowed to leave, but was
ordered to remain in the town until inquiries could
be made concerning him. The name inserted
In his license was Peaty, of Beaune-la-Ro-
land., and his dress and manners indicated
that he was of a respectable position in
society. He took up his residence at a good hotel,
dined at the table d'hote, which was frequented
by several public functionaries, and hired a gun to
shoot in the environs. In the evening of the sth he
requested permission to be allowed to go the next
day in a steamer which was to convey a number of
excursionists to Ramsgate, and as the special com-
missary of police had not received any reply respect-
ing him from the ministry of the interior, he allowed
him to go, on his pledging hie word of honour to re-
turn in the evening. The commissary, nevertheless,
took the precaution of directing an inspector of
police, named Meunier, who went with the excar-
doubts, to keep • close watch on him.
No sooner had the excursion steamer, which
was the Vivid, sailed, than the special
commissary received a despatch from Paris,
informing him that Pesty was accused of murder
and robbery, and directing him to arrest him at
once ; at tile same time warning him that he was
of great strength, and carried firearms. The com-
missary immediately sent a despatch to Meunier
at Ramsgate, ordenng him by all means to brio;
back the man to Calais. Meunier, who in obedi-
ence to his instructions had kept a watch on the
man, now remained close to him, though without
letting him suspect anything, and even got into
conversation with him. Pesty, with the other ex-
cursionists, sew all the sights at Ramsgate, and
quietly returned with them at night. Meunier
contrived that his man should be one of the lad to
disembark, and in passing through the passport
office, the special commissary who, with several
policemen, was in waiting, had him seized so sud-
denly that he could offer no resistance. He was
searched, and a loaded pistol was found on him.
He was then placed in a small room, of which one
or the sides was entirely glazed ' • and all at once he
dashed through the glass aud fled. He ran towards
a gate opening on the port, and several
police-
officers, headed by Meunier, went in pursuit of him.
He found the gate closed, and made a sweep towards
what is called the Burin du Pendia. Arrived on
the quay of the basin apparently distracted, be
plunged into the water. A well-dressed, nautical-
looking marl, who was strolling quietly along, swing
him, threw off hie coat, jumped in, and succeeded is
rescuing him. Pasty, who was insensible, was
carried into a druggist's shop, where restoratives
were applied, end he recovered, after which he was
lodged in gaol. The person who saved him was
Captain Juvelet, of one of the mail packets. Pest)
is accused of having murdered a sheepdealer from
whom he had purchased 200 sheep, his object being
to avoid payment for them.
