A disagreeable circumstance hAs recently oc-
curred here. party of Seamen fron the' J.Vepttor
being On shore on 93d and 2.4111 ult. a quarrel' took
place between them and some Chinese; kwhiclisoMe
seamen from other ships, both EngliCili and Atineri-..
can, weir; also Concerned,,,and some on both sides
were slightly hurt.,, Nothing serious ikas conceived
to have taken place:until' two or three days after-
wards, when it was .stated,. that a Chitle;e had died.
in consequence of hie, hiving been sada by an .
.European. Still, however, it was suppied the
matter would pass over without any inconvenience,
,through the medium. of a pecuniary negociatiott ; but
the circumstance having very sumi cont under the
cognizance of the Viceroy, a demand was made,
that the . man; who. bad. caused the death of the
Chinese shoUld be delivered; up for the purpose of
his being examined.' It Was vain urged, that it
was impossible to discover the man whO had struck
the bloW : the Chinese took it in their heads, that
we knew who the Man was, but ref Used to deliver
him up, and, aeting upon this supposition, they first
stopped the shipments to the Neptune, and 'on the
4th of 'March, all other trade. With the Company's
S!lips.• In consequence of this .step several con-
ferences have taken place between the inferior Man-
.darini the Supercargoes, and Captain llowts, of the
Lion ; letters have been also written by the lattet,
and by the Committee to, the Viceroy, which were
at first refused to be received, but which were at.
length received in consequence ut Captain notiLtis
.sendiog an Ofiker to demand an audience of the
Viceroy. The audience, however; was refused, and
to the letters only. verbal answers have been return-
ed, still demanding the man. The' replies to this
demand have, again stated the impossibility of find-.
lug tile man who actually struck the Wow and
have stated, that no efforts of Chinese should'in-
duce the English to,deliver up an inuocent Man.—
The affair at present remains in this state. The
Chinese, however, are only ,Missile to the English
Company,, the trade of .Foreigpera'and of Country
Ships not being molested. The GovernmerA of
:canton seem at a loss how to ad ; their demand'
cannot possibly be complied with on our part, whilst
. there are some circumstances in their condua:
which they think
__will_not. meet with the approba-
tion of their own superior Government. -Two days
agn they offered to permit the othet ships to take in
their cargoes. and depart, the Neptunc.only. to be
detained until the Emperor should signify his plea-
sure : this, however, was coupled. with inadmissible.
demands 4nd was refused,"
