From the East BY the Acadia.

The overland mail arrived at London on the I'D
of May, bringing advices from China to the 3Oth OF
March, Calcutta to the 9Th of April, Madras to the
18th, and Bombay to the 18th.
The intelligence from China, though not OF great
moment, is interesting. Matters IN Canton con-
tnued quiet, though early in the month appearances
were unlavorabe, owing to an atfray at hampoa,
between some Americans and Chinese, which how
ever was hushed up.
There was some excitement In the vicinity Can
ton by an accident, in which Chlnaman lost his
lfe but it was finally satisfactorily explained, with
out any official notice being required.
The eleven criminals seized for aiding in the De-
cember murders had received their sentences OF
punishment.
At Shanghai there is trouble again between the
native authorities and the English. 1t appears that
early in March three English missionaries were at
tackled, beaten and severely wounded by some grain
junkmen out of employ.
They were rescued by the well disposed Chinese
and taken to their boats and returned to Shanghai
The British Consul demanded that the ringleaders
should be produced and identified, in order that
they might be punished.
The Chinese authorities being rather tardy In
complying, the Consul finally laid an embargo on
number of grain junks, laden with rice for the
North, with view of forcing the authorities into
compliance with his demands.
On the 18th of March the Chiders and Espiegle
were before the town, and all English ships had
been ordered to be in readiness to assist and the
embargo then continued in force. 1t was supposed
that the matter would be amicably settled but lest
it should not the steamer Fury had been despatched
from Bombay for the scene of action.

Mitchell has been convicted, we all know.
His conviction has been followed by a sentence of
fourteen years transportation for the crime of assert
ing the very principle to which the present govern
ment of Great Britain owes its existence. More
than century and half Of uninterrupted rule has
caused that government to forget the events Of
1858, and to adopt the same course and to persist
in the same infatuation which deprived the second
James of his throne. And can it be that now when
the doctrine of the Divine right" has become a
mockery and derision that the people will tamely
submit to the outrages upon liberty, which hun
dred and sixty years ago made them rise as one man
against the oppressor! No! the Irish people will
never permit the myrmidons of British law to re-
move from Irish soil the man who has so boldly
asserted and so nobly maintained their rights An
attempt to enforce the sentence will he the signal
for universal nsurrection which will end either
In total separation or more complete slavery.
Should such not be the result should lreland's
sons strike no blow for Irish freedom, then let
Tara's harp be hung forever on the willow.

ing his tools TO work with. fear. favoY or af-

brave and able officer, had in some sor. TO re-

General Taylor in these and in innumerabls
other instances, has shown that he possesses q
wonderful power Of estimating the true charso-
ter Of an indiyidual-and we think he may b.
safely entrusted with the appointment of the
Heads of Departments under his adminis,rs-
ton. He will undoubtedly selee. good Cab
inet-in doing which he will probably pay liz
tie regard to sectional consderations-and may
greatly disappoint ,hoss many kind friends
who are SO eager to resvo him of the trouble
and responsibility OF appointing his own Csbi-
