COMMISSIONER YEil —llowqua furnished Yeb, be-
fore he kit, with an unlimit•cl letter of credit on
Jardine, Skinner, and Co., so there will be no necee-
sity for Yeh to punish the impoverish, d Indian
Government. Yeb, it appears, vt.>s pit e grieved
at having to leave the Inflexible. The oftcers and
men bad been so reipec ful, and so desirous t make
him comfortable, that perting was a pain. P r,iculaily
anxious was he that Dr C tton should remain in at-
tendance on him. There was only one person: on board
to whom he evinced repugnance—the gentleman who
went round as passenger in the Inflexible, whose heart
was very small he said. Oa all occasions whenLincteivainndg
the mornirg salute, Yeh rose from his chair, ,
respanded, "Good morning; how do you do?" In time
he will become a proficient in English, no doubt.—
Friend of China, May 29.
