where, from the nature of the country, they
will be better able to repel the advarce OF
the intruding forces. 1t appears from let
ters in the Austrian and German Journals,
that engagements have recently taken place
between the Austrians and Hungarians at
Karvoor Syred, and on points of the Waag.

Austrians, others give it to the Hungarians.

character than hitherto.
Termination of the troubles IN Schles,cig

CHINA.
More Trouble BreUing
We hear from China that the Emperor
has refused to carry out the stipulation of
the two treaties, which provided that Can
ton should be open to foreigners. In the
communication of Sue, the Governor of
Canton, to Mr.. Bonham, he says the En-
peror had determined that as the people
of Canton had refused TO receive foreigners
into the town, how can he force an oppo-
site course to the people. From the ma
ture of the proclamation, 1t is quite plain
that the authorities were prepared TO resist
the entrance of the foreigners into the city.
But a great sacrifice of human blood has
been avoided, by Lord Palmerston having
given special directions that nothing more
should be done than report the repudia-
ton of the treaty TO him.
The large naval force which had assem-
bled in the Canton to protect English in
terests. had all dispersed.

Vallan, it is said. had 5000 killed, &C.,
and the loss of the Dutch was about $50.
1t is assumed that the island will forthwith
be annexed to the Dutch possessions.
