THE OPERATIONS AT CARTON.

"Further Papers" relative to the proceedings of
her Majesty's naval forces at Canton were laid be-
fore the late Parliament a few days ago, and pub-
lished on Saturday. The correspondence, as may
be supposed, relates exclusively to the details of
the operations of the English forces at the seat of
war. The most remarkable paper is a "notice"
(purporting to be) issued by the -whole district of
Sing-an (San-on), peremptorily prohibiting the
supply of provisions to the "English barbarians."
This document is a precious specimen of the
friendly disposition of the Chinese towards us, and
of the mercy and loving kindness which may reason-
ably be expected at their hands. Tiie preamble, so
to speak, of the "notice" recites that "the English
outlaws, running riot in rebellion and bearing them-
selves contumaciouslyand insolently to China, had
for a series of years coinede tea more crimes than
hairs can be plucked froth the head to number ;" yet
notwithstanding their unbearable insolence, the
Chinese Government was mercifully pleased, when
they,trea'ed for peace, to extend to them " extra-
ordinary favour, to forgive them their I: ast offence,
and to allow them t) trade at Victoria and other
parts of Hong long." " Instead of repenting (as it
behoved them) of their faults, "a heart of mischief
lay within ,(the English) :" " their cupidity was
insatiable." After sundry accuFations of outrage
and violence, the culminating offence of the Eng-
lish,—the aVack on Canton, is denounced ;
" rude as the boar, and eagier as the wolf, they
have pushed their rebellion far." The high autho-
rities of China, however, were still liberal and in-
dulgent. and, in a Christian spirit, relived to re-
taliate, until at length " the brute nature" of the
English, waxing more and more ferocious and per-
verse, they ventured the length of scaling the walls
and entrr.ng the city. "They are a poison to life.
Their crimes have reached the highest point." Ac-
cordingly, a meeting of the gentry and literati of
the whole district was convened on the 11th of
December, at which the supply of food was strictly
prohibited. But the religious proselytism of the
English is the last feather that breaks the back of
the overburdened Chine.ie camel. "Among their
simple youth are some who have been tricked by
the devils into a profession of Christianity, to the
misleading of mankind, the delusion of the people,
and the great injury of morals. No time must be
lost in burning their heterodox books and driving
out both teacher and disciples." The final in-
ference from all these premises is that "-the Eng-
lish devils must be starved," and " the cause of the
people's misery cut off" before the,patriotic spirits
of China can rest. The notice of which this is a
brief abstract is the work of a Tsinsze, or doctorial
graduate:

RUSSIA.

The leading Russian journals are at present de-
voting their columns and their attention to the
political events in England, in which the greatest
interest is evinced ; the novelty of telegraphic de-
spatches bringing information of the debates that
took place in the houses of Parliament within 24
hours of their publication to St. Petersburg, thus
anticipating the ordinary* channels of information
by about eight days, tends to enhance the lively
interest naturally felt in any crisis affecting the
Government of Russia's great rival. The lucu-
bration% the events in London gave rise to
in St. Petersburg are not exactly of a nature
to be palatable to Lord Palmerston's admirers ;
The Northern Bee points out, with a certain de-
gree of acerbity, 11,)w Paris has become now the
centre of all the diplomatic business of Europe ;
not only were the Peace Conferences at the end of
the late war hold there, but also more recently the
settlement of the p-ace bAween England and -Per-
sia, though France was no party to the war, has
taken place in Paris ; and even the Neuchatel
affair, in spite of the precedent that London has in
its favour, is being brought before the forunt of the
European Powers in the French capital.

HOME CIRCIIIT.—KINGSTON, MARCH 21.
CROWN SIDE.
- (Before Mr. Baron Channell.)
Mary Anne Miles,. 30, a forbidding-looking
young woman, was indicted for the wilful murder
of her male illegitimate child.
Mr. Charnock, who appeared for the prisoner,
said he could not attempt to struggle agiinst a con-
viction fer concealing the birth of the child.
The jury accordingly found the prisoner guilty
of that offence.

El za Brooker, 23, was also charged with the
wilful murder of her female illegitim tte child.
The jury acquitted *he prisoner of murder, but
found her guilty of concealing the birth of the
child.

She wag at once called up for judgment, and bis
lordthip said that seeing she had already been in
prison since the month of October, the sentence
upon her would be three mouths' imprisonment and
h ,rd labour. • •

The oh, r prisoner,. Mary Anne Miles, was

pris-nment.

DENMARK,

Before the Holstein-Lauenburg Domain ques-
tion is brought before the Bund another note will
be sent by Austria and Prussia to Copenhagen.
The twa great, German Powers Will. refute certain
incorrect assertions which are contained in the
• Danish note, and endeavour to prove to Denmark
that her recent measures in Holstein are a
violation of rights and privileges to which that
duchy, as an integral part of the German
Confederation, is entitled. A so-called "verbal
Note" accompanied the Danish despatch of Feb.
23, but it produced no effect either on Austria or
on Prussia. According to a correspondent of the
Frankfort Post Zeitang, the contents of the docu-
ment were that the Danish Cabinet would agree to
suspend the sale of the Holstein-Lauenburg do-
mains, and to settle the question to the satisfaction
of the German Powers, if they would pledge
themselves not to interfere any more between Den-
mark and the Duchies. That Austria, whose great
hobbyisthe " maintenance of principles," will never
agree to such a compromise need hardly be said
Count Buol gave Baron Bulow such an icy recep-
tion that he lost no time in quitting the city, and re-
turning either to Berlin or to his post at Frank-
fort. The French Government seems to be deter-
mined that the German-Danish difference shall not
be settled without its having a share in the negotia-
tions, for it has given Austria and Prussia to
understand that it is inclined to espouse the cause of
Denmark. The British. Government has just at
present "a great many irons in the fire," but still
it would not be advisable to neglect the Danish-
Holstein question, as the Crown of Denmark must
sooner or later revert to a member of the Russian
Imperial family.

FRANCE.

PARIS, SUNDAY EvENING.
The report of the Minister of State of the Budget
of 1858 has been prepnted and re
It shows an excess of receipts over expenditure
to the amount of 25,000,000 f.
In conformity with the ideas of the Emperor, it
is recommended that this surplus shall be applied
to the redemption of the floating debt.
Thus, through the foresight and prudent mea-
sures of the Government, the receipts not only
equal the expenditure, but realise a large excess.
The Moniteur of Saturday contains the decrte
,granting to the Marshal Duke of Malakhoff an an-
nual pension of 100,000 f. It is declared transmis-
sible to his d'rect legitimate descendants in the
male line, but reverts to the State ou their failure.,
It is further inalienable and protected from all pro-
ces (inalienable et insaissible.)
The Borysthene, steam-packet, from Marseilles
for the Eist, carries out as passengers the four bro-
thers of Abd-el-Kader. They are accompanied by
their wives, as well as eight children of the Emir,
five of whom are very young. These personages,
who have with them a suite of 18 persons, will land
at Beyrout, whence they will proceed to Damascus
to join their brother. Thera are altlo on board the
Borysthene thirty Christian pilgrims going to
Jerusalem.

MURDER IN BALL'S-POND-ROAD.

At 12 o'clock last Tuesday night, while Bevis,
a sergeant of the N division, was on duty in Ball's
pond-road, Kingsland, he beard loud screams of mur-
der proceeding from the house No. 11, Dorset-
street, and as he reached the spot a woman staggered
across the road, and fell against the wall opposite.
He caught her in his arms, and her head fell back,
the blood gushing from a wound in the throat, ex-
tending nearly from ear to ear. She did not speak,
and died instantly. At tha instant of the outcry
another officer, named Holliday, of the same divi-
sion, ran to the spot, and received from the hands
of a man in the passage of the house No. 11 a per
sou holding a white-handled razor in his right hand.
He was covered with blood, face, hands, and clothes,
as was the weapon, from blade to haft. At this mo-
ment Inspector Langdon rode up, and directed the
presumed murderer to be taken to the Kingsland
station. Dr. Williams, resident in the neighbour-
hood, and three other medical gentlemen, were
quickly in attendance, but the woman was, as
stated, beyond mortal aid. At the station the man
in custody admitted she was his wife, and address
ing Langdon, said, "I have known you some years,
and wish to speak to you about this." He received
the usual caution in such cases, but persisted in
making a statement as follows :—" I had been to
Pecham-rye with work, and took my wife with me.
On returning I fetched beer and something for sup-
er • then words ensued between us, and then i
was done instantly. It's a bad job. She was b
good wife and kind creature as ever lived or walked.
I did not do it." When charged with the wilful
murder of his wife, he became very low and ap-
parently thoughtful.
Papers and letters found at his residence make it
apparent that his wife was of a respectable family
in Dorsetshire. He was by trade a carpenter,
and they had only one child, a girl about four
years of age.
Lodgers in the house state that they heard a
quarrel between the man, whose name is Thomas
Robert Davis, and his wife, and that he threatened
"to do for her." It was one of these lodgers who,
running down stairs just afterwards, found Davis
ill the passage, and gave him into the hands of
the policeman.

THAMES.

A TALE OF WoE.—A wretched-looking young wo-
man, a native of Scotland, barefooted and bareheaded,
and very lightly clad in garments saturated with rain,
came before Mr. Seife, and told her pitiable tale, which
excited much commiseration.
The poor creature, who was shivering and very cold,
said she was the daughter of a soldier who was killed at
the battle of the Alma. She had been employed for
some time factory,h
tere:
and
nGI Glasgow,
coming slack, she went to Manchester, but could not
obtain employmentat awalked and the work be-
to London. She
s
went into the hop district, in Rent, and obtained a few
days' work, and at the terminatien of the pickings re-
turned to London, and had been wandering about en-
deavouring to obtain employment, but without success.
She was afflicted with rheumatism, her legs were very
bad, and in this state she applied to the authorities at
the workhouse, St. George-in-the-East, Old Gravel-lane,
last night, for relief. She was allowed a night's lodging
in the workhouse, and turned out this morning.
Mr. Sclfe—l think if the Board of Guardians of St.
George knew your case they would take you into the
workhouse, of relieve lOU, and pass you back
to your native country. Yon seem to be in a very de-
plorable condition. Ile wrote a note to Mr. Rooke, the
relieving officer of St. George, recommending the case
of the applicant to his notice, and crdered her a shilling
from the poor-box.

Major the Hon. H. Butler Johnstone, M.P., has

DECREASE ON THE WEAVING POPULATION.— It is a
Met worthy if notice that within the last 15 years the
Heaving population of Crieff has decreased about 50 per
cent. In 1842 there %era 500 weavers in Crieff,
there is scarcely one-half of that number. In Comrie,
the decrease has been even greater, and in Muthill the
number engaged at the loom are so few as to be insuffi-
cient to afford employment to even one resident weaving
agent. The cause of this decrease is mainly to be found
in the small Rages paid to the weavers, and in the fact
of their being frequently out of employment

LONDON, THURSDAY, OCT. 8, 1857.

Our governors have humbled themselves, fasted,
aalti prayed ; for we may surely conclude that
they have practised what they preached. They
have professed their repentance, and now we look
for the fruits meet for repentance. We have been
told is prayer, provided for ua by the Govern-
ment itself, to regard the mutiny as a divine
clfrustisetnent for our sins ; of course for our sins
In regard to India itself, for no theory of divine
chastisements ever separated the
sin and the pun-
ishment entirely. Unless, indeed, we know the
ground of our punishment, how could we know
what sins to confess and forsake. We will not
suppose then that our Cabinet has deliberately
done anything so hypocritical, we might almost
say blasphemous, as to order a whole nation to
orJnfesa the sins of England against India without
believing that there were some distinct and well-
known sins for which we held ourselves answer-
able to the Judge of all the Earth. To be sure
the appointed confession is of that vague and ge-
teral kind in which courtly penitence delights ;
but we are to understand, we presume, that it is
'uite as sincere as if it confessed the sin of having
dnch a Governor-Geaeral and Council, and such a
staff of high officials as now terrify Calcutta by

Chapdelaine, ti French missionary, who was put to
death in spite of the stipulations of the treaty of

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCZ.

CITY, Two O'CLOCK.
Yesterday having been observed as a strict holi-
day the Liverpool Cotton and Share markets were
closed.

The position of financial affairs, on the Continent
generally, appears very unsettled, and the tendency
in most of the principal cities is in the direction of
increased stringency. A complaint is made of the
scarcity of coin, and as the requirements of trade,
public works, (4.7 c., are large and continuous, consi-
derable pressure and inconvenience were experi-
enced. This naturally repressed business, and on
the several Bourses speculative securities were at
reduced values. In Paris even, where symptoms
of improvement were lately visible, a retrograde
movement has re-commenced, although a hope is
