FROM cIiINA.

FROM CHINA.
We make the following extracts from MACAO ietteis
Of July 81, in the Boston Daily Advertiser. This IS
The latest date We have seen.
We have been surprised by the way, ut observing
in some of the Boston and Salem papers an expression
Of doubt whether the new Tariff and trade reghia-
lions. agreed upon between the English and Chinese
were 10 apply equally TO the vessels OF other nations
1t is true, that SIR Henry Pottlngers proclamation
does not say that they are-nor was 1t his business
to notify any but English subjects-but the procia-
nation OF the Imperial Commissioner o'sincuy ae,
clares, that The commerce of oil nations is included
in the operation of the new system. But to the ex'
tracts
The Tariff and port regulations for British vessels
are now published The duties are, for the most part
fair aud there will probably be but little smuggling
Opium is not alluded 10 in any way, and we suppose
that vessel would be perfectly safe to take cargo OF
il to Whampoa and enter it us an unenunera'eo ar'i
Gle of the Tariff. Salt, Government monopoly, is
also admitted These are undoubtedly omissions &C
cidental, aud will be mentioned by and by-tho per-
haps not before there is an actual occasion Tor II.
The hong monopoly is abollshed-the old debts o.
the Co Hong are all paid-the last payment amount
ing TO $50 900, paid early in tins month HOW
qua was obliged pay 100000 of it, The old gen.
teman has been very sick since, but is now recovering
slowly
The opium vessels, it is understood, will all leave
Whampou mmediatey-probably at this moment
on their way down the river.
The American vessels here The Mary Chiffon
for sae-but will probably load soon for home J.
G. Coster, and Talbot, will wait for the new teas
Congress, from North America, will return VISA,
hickon brig, and Swallow, schooner, for SALE SOooO
is the best offer for the later-no offers for the brig
Indigo worth S62, good quality for the U. S Sugar,
35-S Hemp 33 s. Exchange, sd.
We are overstocked with stores of every descr'p-
ton.
The Chinese predict great difficulty in carrying on
trade under the uew regulations, and experience can
alone determine how far they correct. The loss OF
the Hong responsibility will of course add material
y to the risk of sales credit and will aso in great
degree, take away the security have had against
frauds in packing and shipping Of goods.

The Richmond Wing says that running for the Pre-
sdency is something like running for your hat when il
has been carried away by high wind, and il very anu
sngly runs parallel OF resemblance in the following
words
"The best way for him who runs for his hat, or the

Above the rivers shining race,
And sheds Ill rain Of hurried notes
With a swift showers harmonious grace.

In milk white circles swims content,
No more the blue weeds clusters ride
And mock the heavens eiefhent.

As mine anon. those crimson walls.
