experiment of a simultaneous insurrec-

the tumults are unaliayed. SC
Some troops at Grcenock, having in
charge five radical prisoners, were pe.ted
by the populace with mud and stones.
The troops fred UPON the people, and
killed and wounded twenty OF them.
Nine had already died, two were NOR

dangerously. The radicals armed tn, m
selves with the iron ratings which they
tore from two houses; attacked the prison,
broke it open, aud set all the radical pris-
oners al liberty.
The following is an extract of a letter,
dated Canton, Nov. 27.--" The first
American frigate (,he Congress) that has
visited China, is now lying in the mouth
of the river. The Chinese; who are
averse to every thing that is new, have
been making many objections to the en-
try of the Congress. lhcy have at last,
however. though very reluctantly, per-
milted her to purchase provisions here,
but she is ordered to sail Immediately
afterwards. But the intention of the
American is, when fully supplied, to
claim the same privileges which are al.
lowed to British irigate. The affair
has made some talk here, but how it will
end is uncertain.
