THE NA 110\ AL REGISTER,

LONDON :
MONDAY, MARCH 17, 1817.

The information with which we have presented our
readers on the subject. of Lord Amherst's embassy, is
senfir.ned in various particulars. That the Embassy.
is unfortunately past all doubt. The hostili-
ties ta -.voen the war-boats and forts of the Chinese, and
the Alt:este frigate, me equally authenticated by the
accounts whirh we continue to receive ; but witlare-
gard to the effeets of these sin;ater occuirences upon cur
pa.-iac or commercial intercourse with China,' etibugh
there is for the future much to fear, there is nothing
positive asserted. It appears, that the English Ambas-
sador had been, in a manner, drummed out of the domi-
nions of Chita, by an Imperial Edict of his Majesty Kia
King. A letter, brought by a vessel arrived at Rotter-
dam frarn Macao, contains an abstract of the Edict,
which was dated on the sth of last September. Lord
Amherst, saitli the Edict, having arrived at the port of
Tien Sing, was invited to a banquet by the tiovenior
bat his LoriLbip (not much relishing his fare, we pre-
'tame) did not seem grateful for the hospitality. At.
Thom Cheu, he promised to observe the ceremonies of
bending the knee, and inclining the head to the earth ;
but passing on to Y Juan, a summer palace of the Eni-
perces, though Kia King ascended his throne to receive
the embassy, the Ambassador, &c. forgot their promised
bendings, .anii excused themselves from seeing the Em-
peror on the plea of being sick. His Imperial Majesty,
therefore, ordered them away. Thinking, however,a
that as the King of .England hat'. ,sent a Minister sc
many thousand leagues to see him, and that he had
iikcwise prepared for .Kia King's accepanice a number
of valuable gifts, it probably was not the intention of
his said. Britannic Majesty to show his, Imperial Ma-
jesty any heinous disrespect, he would graciously con-
descend to take a few of the least precieus offerings
tninstaitted by the King of Eta:land, vie. some pictures,
maps, and prints. In return for which, the Emperor
bestowed upon the King of England, one Pie Izeou-
ch'e--fintr large parses, and eight-small once. We are
assured that the acceptance of our presents by 'Ws. Im-
perial Majesty, was merely in oompdiance with a finida-
mental principle. of Chinese magnanimity, viz. that o!'
" showing kindness to petty kiugsloine ;" and that his
presents to the British Court cenrespouded with another
finalamental feature of his Imperial cnaractcr, of which
Kia King was reminded by the Chinese Secretary far
Foreign Affairs, namely,.." Hon lan Polai,"—" taking
inoderately, and giving generously!" Therfactory seemed
us have been thrown into great confusion, from an ap-
nyjehended difficulty in prevailing upon any aatives to
engage in their service in future a their Comprathataand.

offence than the alleged one of •haviagt 4wwn an Eng-
