paper later than the Goth of November
1t contains no news of consequence, and nothing
transpired after the Goth, worthy of note
The Ceesals were becoming more civilized. and
the Emperor, aswll be seen in his proclamation, is
a man of much benevolence.
From the Canton Press Goth Nov1
In Canton everything is quiet nor have we heard
that the hostile spirit of its inhabitants Of which
spoke in our last, has again manifested itself
In trade we nave nothing to add to our last weeks
report.
We have seen letters from Annoy stating that au-
| thenhc accounts had been received there by the
authorities, to the effect that ONLY nine persons
still existed OF the many that were shipwrecked
on the coast OF Formosa in the Nerbudda and the
Ann, of whom Capt Denham, late master of the
Ann Is one, and these were to be liberated on the
10Th OF the month.
The letter we have does not state in what
manner ne that gave the information from Formosa
was enabled TO obtain information of the fate of
the remainder, and ls to be hoped that il er.
roneous. There rumors of their having been
executed, but we hope, for humanity's sake, that
they Will prove untounded, and our hope is supper
| ted by the fact hitherto that the Chinese have not
been guilty of such cold blooded murder except in
few instances, and then the victims single in
dividuals.
We beg to direct the attention of our readers to
Sir Henry Pottingers Circular, restricting the inter
course of the British with the Chinese until the set
Element OF sundry questions and arrangements, to
Canton, Hongkong, Annoy, and Chusan. We doubt
ces, but should like to see the definite arrange
ment accelerated
From the Hongkong Gazette, Nov. III
On the I'd day of the 9Th Moon (Sept. 9th, 1922
the imperial will was received as fOllows--
l. Ke Wing has sent up a dispatch concerning the
settlement OF affairs with the barbarans the estab-
| shment OF peace, and the afix of the Imperial
Seal.
q The various items of the treaty entered into
| have also been submitted to the Imperial glance,
having been assented to by the said commissioners.
3 In tins dispatch was likewise stated the con-
firmed desire of the English to have trade at Foo
chow too to erect factories and to dwell there with

given, on the Goth day of the 7th moon, (Aug. Sd,
ed gravest punishment (for the concessions TO the
| Engllsh) but we acquit them of all guilt on the
| subject. 8. AS to the old debts OF the Hong Mer-
chants the Foreigners will not dare to seek the in
| reference of the officers of Government.-6 The
English are to have nothing to against the
| ton of our forts and citadels To these two last
items the English have given their respectful assent
Each OF the different points were drawn out in form,
and l.. the Emperor, having given them thorough
| perusal, adudged them worthy of negotiation, but
demanding the utmost care and the most judcious
elaboration.
The whole of the Barbarian vessels are to leave
| the great River about the 10th of the Sth moon,
(Sept l4) and let the matter be adjusted with the
speedest despatch, that quiet may be restored the
| Imperial bosom, and let these commands be
sent by the most rapid express and cause them to be
made known. Respect this.

Henry Pottlnger may be expected here. BY the last
advlces from Chnsan, II. f. was making a visit TO

arrive at Hongkong before the end of this year.

affords but another instance of the MANY to be met

times the issue of the circular being attributed to
American Missionaries now at Annoy, who, in fact,
are the only Americans there, and who acting as
Agents for Canton firm, entertain doubt,
wish OF cementng the two worlds together, and
have pitched upon Bohea as the connecting link
