the reduction of the tariff. The excite
ment was directed against foreigners,
many of whose stores were destroyed,
and several lives lost. Advices from
Vera Cruz to December l6 announce
the adjournment of the Mexican Con-
gress, after passing the tariff amend
ments, and authorizing a loan of two
millions of dollars. The report of the
defeat of Caravajal at Cerralvo is con-
firmed. The Mexican official account
states his loss Of four killed and seventy

not only the tremendous poll in his
favor, which establishes the fact of his
great popularity, but the manner in
which many of the tickets were worded
rs convincing proof, if none other
were wanting, that the voters were
almost infatuated in their alteration of
the man. The feelings of the people
of France appear to have been stamped
on their ballots, and show that g Ma
poleon the Second," as he is styled, is
first in their hearts. They seem to
look to him alone for happiness and
prosperity, and have entrusted their
future welfare into his keeping. How
worthy he may be of this great respon-
sbilty, remains for time to prove.
The election came off on the Goth and
21st of December. The advices from
Paris are to the morning of the esd Dec.
up to which time the following was the
state of the vote as far as known: De-

adhesion to the policy of Louis Napo-
leon in the hands of General Gemeau.
Rome was Illuminated on the occasion,
but it was not known whether at the
expense of the Papal Government or

TURKEY.-A shock of an earthquake
was felt on the 10Th October, at Berat,
in European Turkey. 1t threw down

perlshed in the ruins. About SO0 houses,
a Greek church, and two mosques were
greatly injured. When, after the dis
aster, the population was counted, 500
persons were missing; but many of
them were supposed to have taken to
flight. The upper part Of a mountain
near. the town became detached, and
was cast a considerable distance a
crater then opened in the centre and
vomited black smoke and blocks of
stone this was followed by sulphu-
rous lava in boiling state which sub
sequentIy turned to powder. Fetid ex-
halations arose, which corrupted the
air. The villages near Berat also suf-
fered greatly from the earthquake. At
Salonica, on the 9Oth and Slst October,
shocks were felt. They came from the
north to the south, and lasted several
seconds. The sky was covered at the
time. The first shocks were slight, the
latters stronger, but it is not stated that
they did any damage.

CHINA.-The following is from The
Overland Friend of China, dated VIC
toria, October So
China presents a troubled aspect. In
Pekin treason turks around the throne
the northern seabOard sWarms with
freebooters, who, not content with plum
dering every vessel that crosses their
path, make continual ravage in the va
rious towns where anything of value is
to be obtained-and in the southern
provinces rebellion rears its head, every
report giving additional success on the
side of the insurgents. With know
ledge that for months past there have
been upward of hundred thousand
imperial troops in the field, who make
no headway, the great masses Of the
people are now beginning to despise a
government for which they have hither-
to felt respectful terror. Two days
prior to the date of our last monthly
summary, the government forces were
severely worsted in an engagement in
the Yung-gan district, in which the
combatants brought forth the elite on
both sides. Following this battle, about
the 28th or 30th ult., the rebels laid
siege to the chief city of the district,
called by one of our correspondents
Hunmoo, which they took and sacked,
mutilatIng, in shocking manner, the
district magistrate and his family, who,
with a number Of the principal inhabi-
tants, refused to give in allegiance to
the great King Tienteh. Of the inha-
bitants generally, great numbers were
beheaded on refusal to forswear the
Hienfung dynasty.
An extensive fire occurred at Canton
on the Sth of October, which, it is said,
destroyed some five hundred houses
and a large quantity of property. The
reports are very vague.
The Hong Kong papers of the SOth
October state that severe typhoons had
occurred in the China seas.
