CHINA.

A letter published iu the Russian journal, the
Amour, states that, on the 13th of June, a caravan
of Russian merchants bad arrived at Tiagne-Tzine.
It had left a town called Toune-Tjoou, about
20 vents from Pekin, embarking in three boats
under the Russian flag. The Muscovite traders
appear to have found that some English specu-
lators had anticipated them. The Russian report
describes the town of Tiagne-Tzine as populous, and
the inhabitants actively engaged in traffic with
English merchants. The latter had opened about a
dozen establishments, well supplied with European
goods, but at very high prices. The Chinese shops
aro principally stocked with English cotton stuffs,
manufactured to suit the Chinese market. The
Russians were waiting for the arrival of Chinese
goods, of which the town contained but • small
quantity, and had consequently done a very limited
amount of business.
