From the Friend Of China, December H.
We regret to say that since our last issue
all doubts as to the fatal tragedy al Fa-tee
have been completely dispeIicd. Six OF our
countrymen, Nlessrs Rn,icr, Brown, Small,
Dcllamy, B.lkwill and Mozart. have been
barbously murdered by the savage villa
gers, whose threats have Lccn neglected
both by their own authorities and by the
British Picnipoten,iary. A more cold
blooded, Deliberate case ct wholesale muir.
der does not disgrace the history of barba-
rism; md n fearful penalty will be required
from those who are its immediate pcrpetra-
tors, and from others whose obstinate per.
versity in error permitted such an afro.
city.
The particulars arc only known from tic
Chinese connected with furcign trade, and
with slight variations, their story is tho
same; and their delcsta,ion o. the deed is
expressed in strong language.
On the afternoon ot Sunday, the 9Th, the
party above named Left the factories in a
Hong bont, intending to proceed shor,
way up the river and then land for walk,
returning in time tor dinner They Gid
not como back, md on Monday there was
much excitement aud great alarm Cor their
safety. A party was immediately formed
TO go in search Of them; they returned in
the evening, having ascor,ainel that their
missing friends anlcd near some village on
the Fa-.ee creek and tina, there had been
n disturbance. One Of the boatmen also
came bnck on the evening of the 9th. lie
reported that after the foreigners landed,
.ongs were beat ut the different Villages.
md disturbance cnsuea. but Of the fate
IT his passengers he was Totally ignorant.
An attempt was also made In capture the
Hong boat, though she escaped up the riv-
or, alter being good deal battered with
stones.
On tho eth, the Hong boat returned
her crew could give no further inlnrmation.
On hoard were two pistol cases with the
powder TASKS, &c; bu, the pistols had been
taken on shore. Il was now reported by
respectable Chinese that ON labning, the
villagers surrounded their victims, strong
pnrty intercep,ing their retreat 10 the bort.
An attack was made with stones, and n
gentleman being struck on the mouth
severely injured, drew n pistol and shot
one the nssaianis. More shots were fired
and il is said that from three totive Chinese
were killed. Twoof the foreigners were
murdered a. this place, il is supposed the two
who were armed. The others fled inland
md were hunted from vilngc 10 village
until they were all destroyed. Another
report says they took refuge in Joss house
md were taken on. and deliberately decap-
tinted.
A strong desire was esinced by > por-
ton Of the community TO proceed to the
villages armed and demand their country
men dead or alive. The Consul, however,
in.erposed his official authority in circu.
inr dated the sixth, and sent round on the
9Th.
