huahua, and could proceed no further; when
the Captain ofthc guard who escorted them.
as soon as the fact was reported to him. had

been called by Santa Anna, to assemble in the

OBITUARY..

DIED, on Friday morning the 2lst instant, at
ms residence in this county, Mr. JACOB GwLINsR,
In the 3ith year of his age-!eaving IA wife and
two children to deplore the loss of kind husband
and father.
DIED, in Franklin, Pendlcton County, en- the
moaning Of the 18th uIlimo, Mrs. Mary &. DY-
Err, consort of Mr. John j. DYER, and dauubter of
Jos. IL. Samuels, Esq. of Shenandoah County.-
iier Illness, which Was of short duration, she
bore with Christian loftitude, and seemed to
long Tor 1.-THE time Of her departure be at hand -
believing 1t TO be 'ar better depart and be with
Christ" Before her death she selected her flu
neral text, which was, "BIessed are the dead who
die In the Lord" She died IN the triumph of
living faith. and doubtless her happy spirit now
rests in the kingdom Of God. She has left be-
hind her an afiectionae husband, three small
children, and numerous friends to mourn their
loss, which is her ''etcrna gain" She had on
~ attained to the twenty seventh year of her age,
when she was cut down as flower, i'm the noIn-
ing, and taken to ripen in the paradise of God.
Departed this life, on New Years day, at his
residence, Pocahontas county, Virginia, GEORGE
MEssiNGBiRG. aged near 90 years. He was a ma
tive of Old England, and came TO this country a.
bout the close of the Revolutionary war. He
was Of ono of the first families in ENGLAND, and
was OF a refined education but, from some cause
not rightly known, he had got his mind much
disturbed. He would take strange fights and
WIZ ho,'ohs' sometimes lie woCid propheSy
and speak Of many things that would come to
pass: He wrote largely on the Scriptures. In
all his course he manifested great sincerity and
truth. He had large legacics bequeathed him
from England at different times. We believe he
was Christian, and as such died i'm the faith of
the Gospel of Jesus Christ and, while his re-
mains have been carried to the DUST we trust that
his spirit returned to the bosom of his God,
to rest in peace. Let us close the above narrative
with the following "When awake shall be-
hold thy face in righteousness; shall be satisfied
when awake in thy likeness
My Saviour shall my life restore,
And raise me from this dark abode;
My soul and flesh shall part no more,
But dwell forever near my God.

TWENTY DAYS LATER FROM CANTON

The Swedish brig Albion, at New ork, left
Macao on the 17th September. Wecopy from
the New York Courier extracts of letters
from both Canton and Macao.
The British Naval forces have, it would seem,
i'll consequence ofsome hostile movements on
the part of the Chinese, imaginary or real, des-
troyed some villages bordering on the river
which leads to Canton, the Chinese apparently
offering no resistance, indeed they seem inca
pable of any, and to be entirely at the mercy
of the invaders. At the British settlement at
Hong Kong, the public works are continued
with activity, and the native population is said
to be fast increasing. Several houses in frame
for that place had arrived, but it was thought
they would provea bad speculation, labor be-
ing good and cheap, aud all sorts of materials
abundant.
Meantime, the British expedition, which had
proceeded Northward, had captured Annoy,
ard some accountssay, again taken possession
OF Chusan. Annoy is represented to have been
a place of considerable strength, atlcast in the
opinion of the Chinese, and TO have contained
vast quantities of naval and military stores.
1t is, however, still twelve hundred miles from
PekIn.-Bdl. .lRleriCdR.

The CREoLr.-'rhe New York Herald states,
that Lord Morpeth, distinguished British states
man, now on visit to the United States, recent
ly attended the Massachusetts, .9Joifion Fair, and
IN reply TO some question respecting the Creole,
said, 'there cannot be the slightest probabilit
that Great Britain will be so inconsistent with
herself as TO restore these slaves to bondage: f.
ven with regard 10 the nineteen concerned i'm the
mutlny, he expresses an opinion that England
would not be required to surrender them by the
law Of nations, and certain it is she would have
no disposition to do 500 We do not know anv
thing to the truth Of this statement; but if it be
true, and Lord Morpetl's opinions should be act
ed upon by the English ministry, there can he no
doubt that our government will be bound to re-
sent the outrage, even by war. tits true we have
submitted, ever since 1887, TO a similar outrage,
| our late Minister at London, and the Administra-
ton of which he was agent contenting them
selves with a very energetic and able protest. and
| remonstrauce. But the British government paid
no attention to It, and it seems was easiiy
satisfied! Public attention was then absorbed by
domestic events, and could not without difficulty
| be turned to other subjects. That, too, was a
case of wreck, and did not strike the public ear
with so much force as that of the Creole, i'm which
mniny and murder were the preludes to this ma
tlonal robbery. This case will not be forgotten,
as that was, until recurrence of the outrage, un-
| der more aggravated circumstances, revived its
| memory. Whatever other sins Mr.. Tyler's adj
mnstration may have to answer for, we feel con-
fdent that indifference on this subject will not be
one-even though Mr.. Webster be his Home Sc
cretary, and Mr. Everett his Minister. The Pre-
sldent knows well enough the temper of the
South, TO he aware, that on This question, when
once aroused, it will listen to no compromise

From China, advices to the 9th August, be-
ing three days later than before received, have ar
rived at New York, by the way of Mexico
Admiral Parker sailed on the 26th, with most Of
the land and sea forces to make demonstration
on Pekin. The Chinese had offered Sir Henry
fottlnger s. 100000 if he would cause the ex-
petition to be relinqushed. This he declined !;
ana on the other hand declared that in case any
hosuie demonstration was made by the Canton
forces, he would again take the city, and ifeat the
chinese with the utmost rigor. IT, however,
they kept quiet he would respect the sc, 900 900

and several ships at Wbampoa; but Sir Henry
Pottinger had advised the former to be ready to
come at moments notice.
