likeness Of the SIpercargo, Mr. VIM. Cooke,
Tor The following intelis ence.
Wh'D the news reached Canton, that the
Britl'h frigate had fired upon and killed sew
-ra' Chinese, they, usual ~ such cases,
demanded an equal number o. English to be
delivered to ihtUl. 20 be pu, TO death. This
was refused IN the part OF the English. The
trade was i'm diate!y stopped. Determin.
ed not 70 give up ihe,r men, as demanded,
The company, (sup-rcargoes) res olved to quit
the factory, and take refuge on board their
ships The Chinese did not believe, at first,
nat they were serious, and concluded that
they were only making q frint. Finding
however, hat their Hsg was struck, and that
their wives and families bad left Macoa, that
the treasure was embarked, and all the ship
ping mad dropprd down 10 the second bar,
they became seriou.ly alarmed. The Vice
ttOy had gone so far as TO promise that the
trRde might GO on before, on condition,
that wien the English ships should have ar
rived 10 their own country, they should relate
the affair to their sovereign, and 'next year,
hey "ighL bring the specified number of
Ens'i'hmen, to be butchered according to
thair absurd laws
Two days before the Gennerel Hamilton
'aited, the Horg merchants, in body, had
gone dowO to eude.vor to settle matters; but,
at the time OF sailing, no settle ment had ia
Ken place.
The British supercsrgoes have behaved
with the greatest frmness and resolution, and
seem dete rmined to protect their country

an accidental homicide as eqoal to a del,ber.
