CHINA.

The following is the letter from our own corre-
spondent, dated Hong Kong, October 29 :
" The steamer Cadiz, bringing the 9th of Sept.
mail from England, arrived on the night of the
24th inst. ; and the steamer Singapore, with the
outward mail, leaves to-day.
" Our Shanghai advices are to the 22d inst.
Lord Elgin and the Chinese Commissioners, since
the latter arrived at Shanghai, have had several
conferences, and, although what has passed is kept
a profound secret, it is understood that no great
difficulties have been presented in revising the
tariff and trade regulations, and we believe all the
points may be considered as essentially settled.
The subject, the discussion of which, it is said,
caused some delay, was that on the article opium,
and this only had reference to the amount of duty
to be imposed. We believe the matter has been
referred to Pekin. The amounts mentioned are
30 taels and 40 taels per chest. Lord Elgin
holding out for the former, and the Commissioners
requiring the latter. The latter, at the present
rates for opium, would be equal to about 7 to 81 per
cent. ; with ordinary prices ruling, the duty would
be over 10 per cent. While obtaining the expressed
consent of the Government to the import of opium,
we could have wished a low duty to be fixed so as to
remove the inducement that has hitherto existed
for the Chinese to evade their own Government. A
tax, less in amount than the proposed one of 40 taels,
has been tried at the various ports by the local Go-
vernments, but it was not found to answer.
" We hear that Lord Elgin is to come down here
immediately, and it is to be hoped that he will, on
his arrival, be able to effect a final and satisfactory
arrangement of matters at Canton, and decide the
site for the British factories. After this, as far as
we are able to judge at present of the concessions
obtained from the Chinese by the late negotiations,
-it will only remain for us to assert the privileges
granted to us, to see an alteration take placein our
intercourse with this country likely to be even more
beneficial to the Chinese than to foreigners. There
will be considerable responsibility incurred by those
whose duty it will be to guard against any treaty
rights being set aside for any cause whatever. We
have already seen the disastrous effect of the adop-
tion of such a policy.
" Matters at Canton show considerable improve-
ment since we last wrote, and teas are now being
shipped off. Since the opening of the market about
a week—ago, some 100 chops of new congou have
been settled at from 23 to 32 taels. The tea-men
are very confident'. in their opinion as to a short
supply, and for the last day or two have shown
some speculative disposition, and have offered an
advance for teas they had previously sold. The
market is already cleared of all the best chops, and
from the advance in price settlements had ceased.
At the other ports there is no particular feature of

DREADFUL COAL-PIT ACCIDENT.

FOUR MEN KILLED.
On Wednesday morning an accident, by which four
men lost their lives, occurred at the colliery belonging
to Messrs. Turner and Co., of Icillamarsh, near Sheffield.
The casualty occurred by an extraordinary fatality. On
Tuesday night a fire was kindled at the top of the shalt,
to prevent the formation of ice, and this fire communi-
cated with the pit rope and scorched it. This was told
to the men, who refused to descend on Wednesday
morning until it had been ascez'ained that the rope was
safe. Experiments were made which appeared to estab-
lish the safety of the rope, and 60 or 70 of the men de-
scended the mine. The last party to descend consisted of
three brothers, named Senior, and a man named
Turton. They were reluctant to descend, but being
tie
encouraged by their comrades, they stepped

the others lingered half an hour. One of the brothers
Senior had been thrown against the edge of the corf,
which had completely severed one of his arms from his
body. The bodies were removed from the mine to await
the coroner's inquest.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The quantity of English wheat received fresh up to-day,
coastwise and by land carriage, was limited; consequently,
the show of samples small. For most kinds we had a
steady but by no means active demand, and Monday's
advance in the quotations was well supported.
Nearly 12,090 quarters of foreign wheat have come fresh
to hand this week. Good heavy samples ruled steady, at
full prices, but inferior qualities were neglected.
There was a fair demand for both barley and malt, and
pri 'es were well supported.
The show of oats was limited. Most kinds ware in re-
quest, and the turn dearer.
In beans and peas very little was passing, on former
terms. _ _ _

We had a fair demand for flour, and Norfolk qualities
were rather higher than on Monday.

Although the supply of beasts here to-day was only mode-

nevertheless, the transactions in them was comparatively

DREADFUL ACCIDENT ON THE CALE-

DONIAN RAILWAY.

FIVE MEN BILLED.
On Tuesday evening, about i o'clock, an accident of
a very terrible character occurred on the Caledonian
Railway, at the branch line in course of construction
between Gartcosh and Gartsherrie stations. So far as
we have been able to ascertain, the accident, which has
resulted' in the death of five individuals, arose under
the following circumstances :—ln the construction of the
branch line alluded to, a large number of navvies em-
ployed by the contractors were engaged during the day
until the usual hour of leaving off work, 6 o'clock, p.m.
At that hour about 100 of them, leaving the branch,
crossed over on the main line, for the purpose of going
home along it. They had not proceeded many yards,
however, when their attention was. attracted by the
noise of a train of empty mineral waggons which was
proceeding up towards Coat-bridge, in which direction
they themselves were going. On seeing the lights of the
engine immediately behind them, they at once crossed
to the down line, in order to avoid accident. They had
scarcely done so, however, when they perceived the
Carlisle down goods train dashing along in front of
them at the rate of about 18 miles an hour. The men
were at once panic-struck, thus seeing danger on both
sides of them. The greater portion succeeding in get-
ting out of the way by standing in the six feet space
between the " up" and " down" rails, but unfortunately
five of them were instantly crushed to pieces, frag-
ments of their bodies being scattered about in a most
frightful manner. The head of one of the wretched
sufferers was literally severed from the body; another
one was cut in two by the wheels ; one had his feet
smashed to almost a pulp ; and others were more or
less mutilated, the waggons were thrown off the rail
by the shock, which occurred so suddenly that the
engine-driver was only then made aware of the fact
that an accident bad occurred. In addition to the
five killed ; two are lying dangerously wounded—one
of them in an almost helpless condition—in the Glas-
gow Royal Infirmary,

A number of men acquainted with the cultivation of
Vines have just been engaged in different departments
of France to go to Australia, where the cultivation of

DIRECTION OF LETTERS FOR LONDON

AND ITS ENVIRONS.

The Postmaster-General has again called attention to
the fact that, in order to promote rapidity and correct-
ness in the delivery of letters, London and its environs
have, far postal purposes, been divided into, ten districts,
each to be treated in many respects, as a separate town.
To render this arrangement effectual, he earnestly re•
quests that every means may be taken by the public for
causing letters to be directed Recording to the district
for which they are intended.
The initial of the name of such district will suffice ;
but, if preferred, any other contraction, or the name in
full, may be used instead.
In the direction of a letter, the initials, or initial, as
the case may be, should be legibly written in a separate
line, and should in all cases end the address, as shown
in the following example :
James Thompson, Esq ,
509, Piccadilly,
London,
W.
except when the letter is posted in a London district,
and then the word London may be omitted.
The London Directory, the Court Guide, the Law
List, and the Parliamentary Companion for 1588, will,
it is understood, have the initial letter appended to every
address.
Information as to the district in which any part of
London or its environs is included may also be obtained
in either of the following publications, which can be
procured at every head post-office and every London
District Receiving-house :-
1. " The British Postal Guide," published quarterly.
Price 6d.

2. "An alphabetical list of the principal streets and
places in London and its environs, as divided into postal
districts." Price ld.
3. A similar list, in larger type, and accompanied by
maps. Price is.
It has been suggested to residents in London and the
neighbourhood that they should give the initials of the
district in which they live whenever they communicate
their own addresses either in the inside of letters or in
any other way ; and it is hoped that their correspon-
dents will carefully repeat the initials so given when
directing letters in reply.
A careful attention to this request is the more im-
portant, because, commencing with the let February
next, the following rule will be observed with regard to
all mails reaching London after the first morning deli-
very, viz.:—When any of these mails arrive at such an
hour that it is possible to include part but not the whole
of the letters in the next delivery, a selection for such
delivery will be made of those properly addressed to the
postal districts, the remaining letters being sent out by
the following delivery.

DEATH OF ADMIRAL DOWNMAN.

This venerable flag-officer died on Monday last
at his seat in Hampshire, aged 95 years. He
entered the navy in October, 1776, and while serv-
ing as midshipman in the Arethusa was wrecked
while in pursuit of an enemy's frigate off the
Island of Moulins, when ke was taken prisoner and
detained nearly 12 months in France. He next
joined the Edgar, Commodore C. Hotharn, in which
ship he was present at the relief of Gibraltar, and
in Lc rd Howe's partial action with the combined
fleets of France and Spain is Oct., 1782. As lieu-
tenant he assisted at the occupation of Toulon. and
the reductioi of Corsica, and several gallant attacks
on shore with the enemy. In 1794 he was appointed
to the Victory, 100, flag-ship of Lord Hood, Rear-
Admiral R. Mann, and Sir J. Jervis, and under
the two last-mentioned admirals saw much service,
being present at the action of July 13, 1795, and
Sir J. Jervis's action with the Spanish fleet in Feb.,
1797. During the period he held the command of
the Speedy sloop, O' Byrne states that he " cap-
tured live Spanish privateers, carrying altogether
17 guns, 28 swivels, and 162 men, besides encoun-
tering off Vigo two very severe actions on the 3d
and 4th Feb., 1791, with the French privateer
Papillon, of 14 heavy guns and 160 men, which he
beat off on both occasions." After obtaining post
rank he was employed in the Santa DJrothea, 42,
off Malta ; and by his perseverance in the blockade
of the fortress of Savona, which he compelled to
surrender, gained the thanks of the Admiral and
the Admiralty authorities at home. After the bat-
tle of Marengo he destroyed all the fortifications
in the Gulf of Spezia, landed the Duke of Savoy
and family at Naples, and was instrumental in sav-
ing the valuable gallery of Florence from falling
into the hands of the French. He captured during
his command the San Leon, Spanish nun-of-war
brig of 16 guns, besides making several other prizes.
He was present under Sir H. Popham at the re-
duction of the Cape of Good Hope, and brought
home the despatches announcing the event. He was
then ordered to the river de la Plata to take the
command of the Diomede, and held various com-
mands up to the summer of 1825, when he obtained
his flag. His commissions bore date as follows :
Lieutenant, March 5, 1790 ; Commander, July 26,
1797 ; Captain, Deo. 26, 1798 ; Rear-Admiral,
May 27, 1825 ; Vice-Admiral, Jan. 10, 1837 ; and
Admiral, April 24, 1847. The gallant admiral
was one of the reserved flag-officers in the receipt
of service pension. He had received the naval me-
dal and two clasps for the defeat of the Spanish
fleet of Cape St. Vincent and for the expedition to
Egypt in 1808.

FRANCE AND CHINA.

We yesterday published an extract from the
Independance Belge, in which it was announced
that France had resolved not to participate in the
operations which England was preparing against
Canton, and that formal orders to that effect had
been sent to Admiral Rigault do Genouilly. That
journal, finding that it' was ill-informed, corrects
as follows its first assertions :
" The instructions sent to the French admiral
naturally do not apply to the operations which
were on the point of commencing against Canton
when the last mail left, and which have by this
time probably received at least a commencement
of execution ; they apply to what may take place
after Canton has been taken. That first result
being obtained—that is, Canton being taken—the
French admiral would confine his co-operation to
that point, and proceed to the coasts of the em-
pire of Cochin China to obtain further successes."
In another part of the same journal, we find
the following observations on the conjoint attack
of the French and English forces on Canton :
" Whatever may be the means of resistance
possessed by the inhabitants of Canton, and what-
ever may be their energy, tha success of the French
and English arms cannot admit of doubt. But
what will be the consequences of that first affair ?
Will not the occupation of so populous a city pre-
sent difficulties which it will be impossible to over-
come with the limited forces which the allies can
dispose of ? It is in fact not easy at present to
foresee the bearing and result of this first act of
hostility, for the ambassadors of the two coun-
tries have plenary powers. It does not appear to
be the intention of the French and English govern-
ments to go further-than to obtain an advantageous
treaty of commerce, as well as the right of having
diplomatic agents at the Court of Pekin. It is
easy to see that, on the first point, the govern-
ment of the Celestial Empire will cede as it did
in 1840 ; but, on the second, a sharp resistance
may be expected. The success obtained by force
of arms will even perhaps be insufficient to bear
down the opposition of the Emperor of China ; and
the demonstration made against his States may
not be crowned with all the success that the send-
ing out of troops, relatively considerable, might
originally have rendered probable. It is not un-
likely that the war will not be urged on beyond
certain limits. England will, it is said, be satis
fled with taking possession of some towns on the
coast, having good ports. Her interests will be
sufficiently protected by her occupying, as abso-
lute mistress, such points as the necessities of her
commerce render necessary. In that way she
would be no longer subjected to be interfered with
by a fanatical mandarin as she has hitherto been.
As to France, which is much less interested in the
matter than England from the restricted amount
of her commerce with China, she will probably go
and take a compensation elsewhere."

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—Jan,. 7.

WORSHIP STREET. Joseph Reynolds, a
respectably-dressed man, described as a green-
grocer in Oak-place, Hackney, was charged before
Mr. Hammill with the following aggravated
outrage.
Mrs. Jane Archer, the wife of a bootmaker, who
was in a state of great suffering and deb lity from
the ill-usage to which she had bcea subjected,
stated,—l and the prisoner live next door to each
other, and we inhabit two of five houses to which
there is a gate common to all of us, and through
which I must go to reach my own doorway. At 10
o'clock this morning I went out on an errand, and
on returning in a few minutes, finding this gate
locked I knocked at it for admission. The prisoner
came out, and I asked him to let me in, but he re-
fused to do so, and made use of the most digustint
language. I turned round, intending to go through
another person's premises, when he rushed out at
the gate, and lifting up the lid of a well close to the
gate, exclaimed, " You wretch, I'll now put you
down this well." At that moment, however, his
wife came up and dragged him away, but he broke
away from her, and she instantly closed the lid of
the well. I then got inside the gate, but he over-
took me, and, exclaiming, "I have long wanted to
make a public exposure of you," seized me by
the wrist and leg, turned me completely
over, with my head downwards, and my petti-
coats over my head, so that I could not see.
I screamed "Murder !" and " Police !" which
brought the neighbour3 to my assistance, who
begged him to stop his violence, but, instead of
that, he lifted me up by main fore?, and flung me
over a fence into an adjoining garden, i,ito which I
fell,
and my head came violently against a wooden
post. While he was holding me up by the leg and
ta t andexposing threatenedmvier isss I
tohave
much my struck me about the head and shoulders with his
described, he repeatedly
knock the life out of me.

ness, I feel very only

In
answer
win
to the magiitraie's
que,tions about the wounds
wit-
ness said the prisoner, when
irst attacked her,
had a nzor in his hand, but
whether
she the wouuda
were inflicted with that or not cooruld not say.
At the close of her evidence the poor
came s'>faiut and ill, and was subjected be
to
serious hcernorrliage, that Mr. Liammill orderTdc her
to be immediately supplied with restoratives and
taken home in a cab.

A married woman, named Compton,
beard the screams of "Murder" and Yolice,"and
on looking out saw the prisoner holding the Com-
plainant up by the leg and arm, with 44 head
down and her person most shamefully expofed. I
abused him for his infamous conduct, and 'he re-
leased her for a moment and she fell, but as Eoon as
she get up he struck her violently about the head
and body. took her up again, assailed her with the
most abominable epithets, and pitched her over the
palings into the next garden.
