WESTERN HARBoRs.-The Buffalo Adj
yertiser, on this subject, so important 10 the
West, has the following pertinent remarks:
T Chicago AM
We have repeatedly andcarnestly urged
the necessity of protecting life and proper
ty upon our Lakes by the construction of
Harbors. On Lake Michigan especially,
is this protection needed. From the Mani
tou Islands to Chicago, almost the entire
length of the Lake, there is not Harbor
in which a vessel can find refuge fromim-
pending destruction. The consequent an
nuaI loss Of property-to say nothing of
the many valuable lives-upon that Lake,
would equal an amount sufficient to con-
struct toIerably safe harbors-at every prac-
teal point. There are but few such points
and they should be forthwith improved.
One of the most feasible is at Southport, a
thriving village on The west shore, about
80 or 90 miles north Of Chicago. A petit
ton to Congress, praying for a small ap-
preparation for harbor there, will soon be
presented TO our citizens for signatures 1t
should be signed by every man.

LATER FROM EUROPE.
From the London Mercantile Gazette.
LONDON, Wednesday evening. jan.

CHINA, INDIA, AND EGYPr
We are to day enabled to place before
our readers important intelligence from the
East, which cannot fail to be productive
of much qualification TO every individual
who can so far diycst himself Of oarly
feelings as 10 rejoice over the signal sue.
cesses Of Great Britain abroad under any
administration.
The news from China and India we have
received by the overland mail! the inte-
gence from the former having been con
veycd TO Calcutta, by II. NJ. S. Cruiser.
The intelligence from China is as graf
flying as it is irnportant, and it is espe-
cialy satisfactory because it bears with it
this great zest-it was unexpected so lit
tie importance has been attached TO The
progress announced by the last overland
mail to have been made by the Chinese
expedition. 1t appears, however, that The
Chinese question is thoroughly seHled-lhat
the occupation Of Chusan and the proceed
ings Of Admiral Elliot have brought the
Emperor OF China 10 his senses, and that
ne has offered to send Observation-Disclosures 10
Canton or Ningpo for the arrangement Of
all matters in difference with Great Brit
ain.
Shortly after the capture OF Chusan,
Admiral Elliot, in proceeding to the Pecho
River, was met by madarin of the third
rank Of the Celestial Empire, though some
accounts say by the Emperor himself,
while others affirm that Admiral Elliot had
arrived at Pekin, and had an audience OF
the Emperor.
The Emperor has agreed to pay fS''
100000 for the expenses incurred by The
British in making war; other authorities
state e., 000,00 as indemnity for the or
ium seized, and FL, 900, 900 for the exPen'

be determined by the proper tribunal. The
citizens Of Lockport have held a pubic
meeting on the subject, al which, resoo.
tons were passed, declaring that they viii
use every honorable meaas 10 maintain the
supremacy Of the law, and to procure Tor
Nc Leod u fair and impartial tsia They
also resolve thatno obstruction TO the dis
charge OF Nc Leod, shall be made or coun-
ienanccd, provided bail be entered for his
release according 10 law.
The impression which prevails 10 some
extent, that Nc Leod has been arrested on
u previous indictment is erroneous. The
circumstances are briefly these: immedi-
ately after the destruction Of the Caroline.
the Grand Jury OF Niagara county found
bills of indictment against Nc Nab, Drew,
and others, but not<against Nc Leod. lie
IS now a prisoner, simply by virtue of
Magistrates mittin,3s, and his case will be
presented before the Grand Jury, during
the present month. If an indictment, 10
found, the trial Of Nc Leod it is supposed.
will take place at the April term Of The
General Sessions Of Niagara county.
The question has often been asked, :, hy
Nc Lcod should have venhifod on the Am.
erican sidt of the line, and placed himself
within the reach Of the authorities of ,be
State of New York This question We
have moi seen satisfactorily answered from
any source Some suppose i;an evidence
of his innocence; for had he been gully
he would not have unnecessarily leopard
iscd hIs,]iberty and his life, by such cr
adventure. Others put different con.
structon upon bis conduct, and draw con.
clusions from it of his evident guilt. The
last explanation which we have seen. j.
that Nc Leod'in his capacity of Sheriff OF
Niagara district, Upper Canada, is guiky
OF deialcaiion or embezzlcment, to large
amount, and that he came TO the American
side from an apprehension Of the conse-
quences, rs an investigation had been COM
menced. This hast statement as well as
many others, shodld be taken with prccau-
ton, as every thing connected with this
exciting subject, ehus tendency to cxag-
geratioa.

Nc Lcod.-The accounts published in
our paper of last week, in relation to the
excitement at Lockport turns out to have
been exaggerated. There has been no vio-
lence Of law, or riotous procedure on the
part Of the citizens. 1t is true that an al
tempt was made 10 bail Nc Leod, and re-
cognizances in the required sum Of So, 600
were entered; but no precept was deliver
ed to the Sheriff, and Of course the prison
err was not set at liberty. On the follow
ing day the bail was rescinded, and the
guilt or innocence Of the prisoner will soon

Incorporation Bill The Bill to incor-

readers are generally aware, has passed

ally are we led to this conclusion, from the
fact that the petition asking lor'the act OF
incorporation, was signed almost unani-
nsously by our citizens. Probably there
never has been an object Of equal magni-
tudc, affecting the interests Of Southport,
since the fist settlement Of the place, which
has been discussed and assented TO with
greater unanimity, than the one now in
question. Il cannot lie concealed that hith.
eric many commendsble objects, have been
defeated by our owp divisions and dissen-
tions, which have tended TO retard our adj
vance in Improvement.
If the electors Of the village shall vote
to accept the incorporation act, which has
been granted by the legislature, (es we
trust they will) we have few suggestions
to make in advance, for which our readers
will pardon US.
LIST. 1t should be ascertained whether
we have not men among US of proper res
possibility and public spirit, TO fill the
different Offices provided for in the act
without fee or reward. If it is not practi-
cable TO have all the duties Of the different
Offices performed gratuitously, than let the
compensation be fixed at the least possible
rate.
I'd. A strict regard to economy should
be had IN all matters Of expenditure. Tax
es should not be levied except for purposes
OF the most urgent necessity Our village
is compar itively new, and our citizens are
not prepared fortaxation, for improvements
Of taste and ornament
The good sense of the people we appre-
bend, will readily acquiescc with these
views, and the adoption of the act of incor-
porution, will prove beneficial to the future
interests of the village. T.
