The officers of the lmperiaist army are per-
fectly panic stricken they do nothing, and de-
sertons from their ranks are of daily occur
renee. The bad conduct Of the mperiaist SOL
diery too, is driving the inhabitants to join the
rebel standard, and Teen-teh's force are increa-
sing in number daily; indeed, at the present
moment, from careful calculations that have been
made, they do not number less than three hun
drcd thousand.
The following is the purport of letter
from trading house in Kwang 81 to his partner
in Canton.
In the Hopoo district of the department
Lumchow, the rebels gave the inhabitants
good deal of trouble, and some time during the
seventh month the governor Of Canton ordered
an additional force of two thousand Chen-chou
men to proceed there. who, after short stay
got into trouble with the inhabitants, through
some alteration when gambling, and in one
particular affray, no less than seventy OF the
Chen-chou soldiers were killed. After some
investigation, the district magistrate ordered
three of the officers or head men of the Chen
chou troops into confinement where they re-
manned until the sixth evening Of the ninth
moon, (the 26th ult.,) when, Unexpectedly, the
Chen-chou troops rose en- maGse, attacked the
prison, tore down the gates, released, not only
their comrades, but, every person therein con-
fined. They then '~!s'o4 the rebel standard
and commenced rsgular piage. Five pawn
shops, and ten exchquge hoI Uses were thorough
ly ransacked and having ootaned all that was
come-at,able, they went away in body to JOIN
the force OF Lin-suphat, stationed in a mountain
Gus place called Hongfong hin on the Ye-koo
hill in the department Yum
Some rather curious staten ents have lately
reached us from Mongolia, the country bound
ing the Kansuch province Keshlng, it is said,
requested aid of the Mongoians to suppress
some kind of outbreak in the district of Teu-
chow tan, where he was stationed; this aid be-
ing afforded, Keshing, for some, to US, inexpli'
cable reason, directed the imperial troops under
his command to make an attack on them, char
glng them at the same time with being rebels
to the Tartar dynasty. In the encounter, up
wards of one thousand Mongolians were killed
and wounded and their provision aud baggage
captured. This effected, Keshing reported to
the Emperoror a grand victory. But the inhab-
itants of Mongolia, when they heard of the
treachery of Keshing determined on becoming
rebels indeed and, forming armed bodies, they
marched straight to Teu-chow'tan, and to va
rious other places, and gained several victories
over the Tartar Chinese troops. They are now
said to be assembIingin in great numbers, but their
ultimate purpose is not known.
