Interesting from China.

Tie Boston Traveller has the following ex-
trsct of letter from China, which gives ra-
thor novel resume Of the present condition of
2i:a;rs in China The writer advises, st the
conclusion, that tie Imperial GoTcrnnment viii
most probably finally crush the insurrecti0n.-
He also states that Mr. MLEAN, the American
PeHipotentiary, is coming home for instructions
from his Government, relative TO new treaty
with China.
ave would now advise that the visit of the
English and American Ministers to the Peiho
having resulted in nothing more than exchange
Of eourtcsics with the Chinese, and the Manda-
rus having evinced no intention of extending
their relations with Western nations, Mr.. NJ
LEAN leaves by this mail for Europe, having
concluded that he must consult with his own
Government, and, if possible, devise some lew
plan Of diplomatic negotiations Tor the re-
newal and revision Of our treaty relations with
China.
The rebels at the North having lost ground
at MANY points, and the ladroneS that are over
running the Southern provinces hrving forced
the better class of people to give their support
Ia tie Mandarins, it would appear nearly GER
tain that any future negotiation by Western
nations must be with the present Imperial Go
vernment.
The city of Canton having been threatened
By the ladrones, and the Mandarin fleets hav-
ing been engaged during the past week within
three miles of its walls, the Governor has been
induced after long and earnest demands from
the better class of people, to apply to the for
eign powers for assistance; and it will doubtless
be granted for the protection of the port in ac
cordance with treaty stipulations; but without
great concessions on the part of the Mandarins,
no further cooperation will be afforded by for
eigners.
So far from the present authorities here MAX
ing important concessions, we deem it highly
probable that any slight advantage gained by
the Mandarins against the pirates at this juno
ture, would give them confidence, and their
correspondence with foreign officials again as
sume tone that would put an end to any CO.
operation.
The Imperial Commissioner having applied
to Western powers for protection against his
own people, is a measure brought to pass only
hy a most critical state of affairs here; mean
while, the language of his application was most
guarded and the measure differing directly and
positively from the policy of the present govern
ment as evinced at the Peho interview, wemay
snfeiy say the negotiations are likely to be most
unsatisfactory.
The only advantage that may be gained, the
question being local one, would be the open
ing of the City of Canton, and that we deem
Of little consideration in comparison with the
Importance that has been attached to it.
The trade of Canton is entirely destroyed for
the coming six months, and as no foreign CO.
operation is asked or could be granted, except
for the immediate protection of the city, the
province is likely to continue in its present dis
turbed state for year to come"

hall. Some twenty or thirty, more vehement
than the rest, rushed forward to the platform,
kissing, stamping their feet, gnashing their
teeth, extending their arms with clenched fists,
CRYING out, with countenances flushed with eX-
element, "Traitor,"" Perjurer" Liar" Vii
lain" and other epithets accompanied by the
exclamation hustle him out" down stairs
with him" q" throw him out of the window"
&c. &c.
By this, time the meeting was in complete
uproar The presiding officer could not con-
tvo! those present. and declared the meeting
adjourned for one hour. There was then a
general rush for the platform where / was
standing. Some of the foremost seized my col
lar, but, by the exertious of few personal
friends | was saved from further violence, by
being with great haste escorted down private
stairway, while Others closed the doors and
kept back the mob When | reached the
street, Mr. Barker advised me to go to my ho-
tel, and not to show myself about the place,
but to leave the city in the first conveyance.-
Having no other business to attend to, took
the advice and left Syracuse in the first train
