CHINA.

By this mail we receive intelligence from HoL'g
Kong to Feb. 1, and Shanghai, Jan. 24. The fol-
lowing is from the summary of the China Mail: I
" Letters have been received from Tien-tsin up to
7th ult., which report everything quiet at Pekin.
The Emperor was not expected to return from the
Yehol until spring. The Empress is said to have
come back to the capital in bad health. Sang-ko-
lin-sin is reported to have met and been defeated
by the rebels about the south of Shantung, where
they have become troublesome. The troops at Tien-
tsin find amusement in skating, shooting, hawking,
and funning sledges. The boundary of the foreign
settlement there has been defined. It gives an area of
about 60 acres, on the east bank of the Peiho, not far
from the city. Of course nothing has yet been done
about the sale of lots. Mr. Wade has gone to Pekin,
and Mr. Morrison to his post at Sang chow. The
coast in the Gulf of Pechili is still ice-bound and
unapproachable. The expedition for opening the
Yangtsze to trade, and which so much interest at
present centres in, is being organised under the
auspices of Admiral Hope, and will be ready to
start, it is said, in a few days. The rebels are
reported to have been defeated at Ehsien, which
has been retaken by the Imperialists, and also at
Wen Chang, in the province of Sze-chuen. The
Governors-General of Chekiang and Fokien have
urged the Emperor to make a levy of money in all
the provinces, accompanying their request with a
subscription of 3,000 taels to begin with.
"The recent treaty is continuing to receive pro-
mulgation throughout various parts of the Empire.
In some cases the posting of it up is reported to
have given offence, but as yet those cases appear to
be quite exceptional. The Chinese are said to show
an aptness for discovering and applying any of its
clauses that are to their advantage.
" A correspondent who writes from Tien-tsin
via Che-foo and Shanghae, describes the place as
unapproachable, or nearly so. A mail had
reached the Gulf, and many attempts had been
made to land it, but without success, save in the
case of two boxes which were got ashore. Only a
few of our friends there had received their letters.
They expect to be shut up till spring. The ice, at
present, is a foot thick. There is scarcely a
single vessel outside, all having gone to the Mia.
taou Islands or to Che-foo. At a later date the
Plover is reported to have arrived at Tien-tsin, but
without any likelihood of being able to land.
In answer to a memorial praying his return to
the capital, the Emperor is said to have threatened
the memorialists with severe punishment in the
event of their repeating the offence. The effort to
raise the indemnity money has led to a stoppage of
the soldiers' pay and a depreciation in the value of
paper money.
At Tien-tsin the people are very anxious to begin
trade in the spring, and in the meantime amuse
themselves by taking as much of the indemnity
money back as they can possibly get out of the
foreigners' pockets by levying high prices on their
articles. It is possible that the garrison at Tien-
tsin may be broken up by May.

BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS.

Since our last report full average supplies of home-grown
potatoes have been on sale at these markets, but in very
middling condition. All fine samples have changed hands
at fall prices, otherwise the trade has been in a depressed
state at barely previous rates.

Last week's imports were 1,252 bales from Sydney, 2,345
from Launceston, 1,079 from Hobart Town, and 725 from
Algoa Bay.

SEEDS.
The seed traZe is still devoid of animation. Red clover-
seed is offering at low prices, owing to a pressure of Ame-
rican seed on the market. In the value of other articles
scarcely any alteration can be reported. The cake trade
still rules dull, at barely late rates.

INDIA.

By the arrival of the overland mail we have re-
ceived papers from Calcutta to Feb. 8. They con-
tain scarcely any news. The famine in the north-
west and the Punjaub appeared to be becoming
still more severe.

A great meeting of all classes had been held at
the Calcutta Chamber of Commerce to take steps
to relieve in as far as possible the miseries in the
north•:west, and a very handsome subscription was
immediately commenced. Upwards of £7,000 had
been already subscribed in Calcutta alone, and
X 5,500 forwarded to the Lieutenant-Governors of
the north-west and the Punjaub.
At the meeting of the Chamber of Commerce an
important question was raised by Mr. Peterson, a
leading barrister, which was, " Wi hy s it that the
north-west suffers periodically from famine, while
Bengal, which in olden times was as subject to
famine as any other part of India, now never suf-
fers ?'' He answered this by showing that the
north-west settlement had destroyed all the great
landholders, and reduced all to one dead level of
pauperism, so that when a bad season came there
were no "buffers," as he called Zemindars and
rich merchants, between them and misery. They
had not been permitted to accumulate property,
and so had nothing to fall back upon. This view
was vehemently combated by the civilians present,
Sir Bartle Frere taking the lead ; but Baboo Ra-
mapersaud Roy, the government pleader in the
Suddor Court, supported Mr. Peterson, declaring
that he had travelled over the north-west and the
provinces subject to the Thomason settlement, and
that it was true that the people had been reduced
to abject poverty by it. He also attributed the

KOSS UTH NO TES.

_
Kossuth, it may be remembered, was Minister of
Finance in Hungary in 1849, and he is preparing,
it seems, to reoccupy his position should an oppor-
tunity offer. Now, without entering into the dis-
cussion as to whether the Emperor of Austria is
legally King of Hungary, and has therefore a right
to object, in an English court of justice, to the as-
sumption by Kossuth of the Royal arms of Hun-
gary, as an impress for his National Notes, we beg
leave to say a word or two on Kossuth's notions of
Currency. Every one knows that the state of the
finances of Austria is nearly as bad as is possible.
One of the great causes of this is the most ridicu-
lous and dishonest move made by Austria in issu-
ing inconvertible paper money, at the time of
the Italian War, which was not receivable for taxes.
The taxes were to be paid in silver. We pointed
out at the time that this was both dishonour able
and foolish. Dishonourable, because this money
forced into circulation by Government quickly de-
preciated in value, and the poor man and the trader
were robbed to the extent of the depreciation.
Foolish, because the Government by this act threw
discredit on its own notes, and diminished the capa-
bility of the people to pay taxes at the very time
when they were urgently required. The event
showed how correct this opinion was. The misery
and ruin caused in Hungary by the depreciation of
this paper currency, which depreciation amounted
to at least 30 per cent., was one of the proximate
cauttes of the disturbances in that country. Now
what is the Note which Kossuth proposes to issue ?
This is a copy of it :
" ONE FLORIN.

si This monetary note will be received in every
Hungarian State and Money Office as
One florin in silver; three zwanziger being one
:florin ; and its whole nominal value is guaranteed
by the State.
" In the name of the nation.
KOSSUTH Lours:'
New we say, without hesitation, that if Kossuth
Louis had been Minister of Finance to the Emperor
of Austria at the breaking out of the Italian
mi nwar,ht
and had issued such notes as hese,
have found money to fight her battles, toj pay faer
debts, and to save Hungary from the state of
famine, distress, and ruin into which Austria's
stupid currency blunders have precipitated both
nations.
We recommend Mr. Gladstone to call upon
Kossuth Louis, and take a few lessons on the cur-
rency question from that eminent personage. Mr.
Gladstone is trying to save a paltry sum by not
raising the interest on his Exchequer Bills—which
has always been done by former Exchequers when
the rate of discount rose—and consequently he can
scarcely keep Exchequer Bills afloat. Let hi
th
m
issue National paper money, after the 'Kossu
model, and he will get his taxes paid, have a set-
tled rate of interest, and a prosperous country.-

HANOVER.

A letter, dated Hanover, 10th March, says :
" France is making large purchases of horses in
the north. Within the last few days 23 vessels,
freighted with horses, sailed from the east coast of
Friesland, and large numbers have gone by land by
Magdeburg, Salzwedal, &c., so as not to go by the
same route. Mules are also bought up. The French
agents pay good prices, and are not particular in
their choice."

SEEDS;

The 'seed trade is still devoid of animation. Red clover-
seed is offering at low prices, owing to a pressure of Ame-
rican seed on the market. In the value of other articles
scarcely any alteration can be reported. The cake trade
still rules dull, at barely late rates.

THE HEART!-THE HEART!

The heart—the heart ! Oh ! let it be
A true and bounteous thing ;
As kindly warm as nobly free,
As eagle's nestling wing.
Oh I keep it not like miser's gold,
Shut in from all besides;
But let its precious stores unfold,
In mercy far and wide.
The heart—the heart that's truly blest
Is never all its own ;
No ray of glory lights the breast
The beats for self alone.
The heart—the heart ! oh let it spare
A sigh for others' pain,
The breath that soothes a brother's care
Is never spent in vain.
And though it throb at gentlest touch,
Or sorrow's faintest call ;
'Twere better it should ache too much
Than never ache at all.
The heart—the heart that's truly blest
Is never all its own I
No ray of glory lights the breast
That beats for self alone.

BETTING AT MANCHESTER-SATURDAY.

Our rooms were very well attended by the sut‘scribers
to-day, but settling on the past week's events, engrossed
more of their attention than anything for the suture. The
Warwick meeting we did not hear mentioned. A few bets
were made on The Itap,for the Northamptonshire Stakes,
who finished at 100 to 8 (taken) ; and there was a little
speculation on the City and Suburban, for which East
Sheen and First Lord were in about equal demand. There
were frequent offers to take 20 to 1 about Industrious,
but we heard no higher offer than 100 to 6. Tightfit and.
Prince Imperial were each supported, but as the price (40
to 1 each) will indicate, no great amount was invested on
them. Diophantus and Matador were each inquired after
for the Two Thousand Guinea Stakes, but less than 8 to 1
was refused against the former, while 100 to 7 was taken
several times about the latter.—Tho doings on the Derby
were confined to a few outsiders, and for the Chester Cup
there was an evident desire to get on Chere Amie at 10 to
1 (taken), and we think rather less would have been taken
towards the close. The only other animal in request was

" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex

THIS DAY'S MAREETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

The leading provincial markets held on Saturday were
scantily supplied with wheat. For most kinds there was
an improved demand, and in mast transactions prices had
an upward tendency. Fine barley and oats realised ex-
treme rates, with a fair consumptive inquiry. Beans and
peas, however, were rather cheaper. The flour trade was
steady.

Throughout the Continent wheat and most descriptions
of spring corn have changed hands steadily, at very full
prices. American advices bring lower rates for both wheat
and flour.

The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week
were very limited. From abroad we received 14,151 qrs.
of wheat, 9,450 barley, 23,190 oats, 510 beans, 188 peas,
838 tares, 2,050 linseed, 40 sun dry seeds, 3,078 sacks and
16,410 barrels of flour.
Fresh up, to-day, both from Essex and Kent the arrivals
of English wheat were on a very moderate scale, and the
general quality of the samples exhibited a falling off when
compared with Monday last. The trade for both red and
white qualities was decidedly firm, and all, good, and par-
cels realised an advance of Is to 2s per quarter, whilst
inferior and damp descriptions quite supported that day's
currency.

There was a full average show of foreign wheat on the
stands. Nearly all descriptions were in good request, and,
in some instances, an advance of is per quarter on last
Monday's rates was obtained.

Floating cargoes of grain were taken off steadily, at ex-
treme rates.

We were well supplied with barley, but in very poor
condition. Fine qualities were held at fully previous cur-
rencies ; otherwise, the demand ruled heavy in the extreme,
at irregular prices.
The malt, trade may be considered steady, at late rates.
For oats there was a steady demand, and all good and
fine corn !fully maintained previous quotations.
Beans were in good request, at is per quarter more
money.

Grey peas were scarce, and all qualities sold at very full
