from relaxing in any of the prohibitorv mea-
sures adopted towards England, are ye. more
severely belligerent-not only prohibiting
the introduction of English merchants into
the Celestial Empire, but actually preparing
for war, which seems TO us 10 be inevitable.
The question has been frequently asked by
journalists in this country, what impression
does England hope TO make on n country
supposed 10 contain three hundred millions Of
people, and whose policy has ever been anti
commercial and anti.social.
As the dispute seems TO be confined 10
Canton, where the interruption to the British
trade first occurred, we should not be sur
prised if Great Britain confined her opera
tons exclusively to that city and the ada
cent coast without contemplating sending
troops into the interior, which would be haz-
ardous; and thus leaving an opening for TIE
Emperor to disclaim any participation in the
measures of Governor Lin, to whom mer-
camille affairs are generally confined. Eng
land has had frequent disputes with China;
Admiral Arson, more than a hundred years
ago, successfully resisted the attempt to
make British men of war pay chop duty, as
it is called-the first dash which, we presume,
the British naval force will make, will be at
Macao, which is but a few hours sale from
the first land made on the coast, the Great
Lama and cluster of Islands called the nine
pins. There is excellent anchorage in the
roads, and 500 men can capture and hold that
place with ease, and a few miles off there is
a perfect harbor called Typa, forming an ex-
cellent dock yard, and in a healthy, cool
country. in the neighborhood of high noun
tains. Thirty miles from Macao up the RI
yer is the Island of Lintin, easily captured,
and held with good anchorage. Further up
the river is Bonge of Tigris, and a safe ancho-
rage called Anson's Bay, defended by two
Chinese mud forts called, Annapoy, or Chum-
bee. Whampoa is the next place up the RI
yer, which is but a short distance from Can
ton. All these keys England can easily cap
ture and safely hold. The swarms of junks
or trading boats on the river could easily be
disposed Of by a few rounds from the steam
ships of war, having a light draft of water,
and thus the safety of Canton itself would
be menaced. 1t is obviously an Improbable
war on both sides. Great Britain may hold
several points rs a guarantee hereafter for
any new commercial arrangement whichmay
grow out of the present difficulties; and
while the rights of the Chinese to regulate
their W commercial affairs cannot be
doubted, they are, nevertheless, a cunning,
venal, roguish people, who should be prompt
ly dealt with.7N Y. Star.
