! THE INrELLIGEScE FROM CANToN.-That a Sc.
we're fight took place Canton, Hate in October.
there is scarcely any doubtful the true version of
it we have yet to receive. BY the way of Baltimore,
have account, and by the arrival here of the
Talbot, have another. The information by the
latteris probably the most correct.
In the fight, upwards Of five hundred Chinese
were said to have been killed by the English and
several Of their war junks blown up and sunk All
communication with foreigners, except Americans,
had been cut off, and the probability is, that the
whole Chinese coast will be undera state of vigor-
Gus blockade by the English. How long it will last,
time only will show. The breach is now so widcned
between China and England, that much time and
good deal Of talk will be required to make it all right
again
BY the Talbot, we have received several curious
Chinese documents and publications. One is trans
laton of Esop's Fables into Chinese, sent TO us,
|" with Nun Mooy Seen Shang, the translator's com
pliments;" and another is the translation of Chi
tale into English, entitled Wang Keaon Ii
Pin Neen Chang Han, or the Lasting Resent
ment of Miss Keaon Livan Wano." The purity of
the Chinese style is preserved throughout, and it
would bea capital book for the Harpers repussh.
1t is specimen of Chinese literature.

The Russians, by way Of emulaing the English,
