Correspondence u The N. Y. Tribune
VICTORIA, Hong Kong, June, 1857.
Our accounts from up the river are as mesger as
can We'll be imagined We are but 20 miles from
Canton, and yet are but little better acquainted
with what is going on there than with the daily oc-
equations Of the man in the moon. The Chinese
arc hsrs from habit, and If one Of them started
from Canton with tho intention Of bringing true
report, bis natural proclivity would overcome his
intentions long before he arrived in Hong Kong.
Our information il therefore what may be termed
negative kind, and, like dreaus, goes by op-
posites.
We Lear of 20 900 troopS in Canton. Ofcouno
we conclude that the city is about destitute Of
force. We hear that a special official hiss come
from Pekin TO attend to affairs. Hence we may
safely surmise that nothing Of the sort has taken
place, and as there have appeared several procla
nations from the % Son Ct Heaven, j. 9. the En-
peror We ss safely infer that in all probability the
" Son Of Heaven has heard nothing about the dis
turbonces here. The Emperor lies to bis officers,
and they return the compliment, and SIS the Il" Son
of Heaven" claims to be the father Of bis people,"
it strikes me that /" The Father of Lies" would be
no bad addition to the Emperor's many titles. II is
o fact, however, that in the neishborhood Of
WbampOa, great destitutiOn and suffering exist
and the p. ope long for the return Of English and
other foreign shipping. The little gun'boats 60
trottiDg around through the narrow creeks and
ines inspecting all possible depots or places of Sc
curity for armed boats and in every instance arc
treated with Kindness by the people nnd supplied
with provisions. Whenever or wherever Mands-
rn boat is found il is burned sunk at once, the
crew mostly escaping over the hills to the back
country and in most instances claiming a glorious
victory over the barbarians soon as tho said bar
barians have steamed cut Of sight. You can judge
of the proves Of the Imperial sOldiory, from the
fact that body Of three hundred were pu. TO most
ipsorous flight the other day by the use Of no more
deadly weapon than the stsamrhis'le OF one Of the
aan-boats. Meanwhile, every thing is quiet in the
coloLy. A brisk trade in rice and coolies almest
makes up for the stoppage Of trade with Canton.
Rice has been exorbitaaty dear, but the incoming
crop has now equalized the rates. cannot torbear
csng attention t. the fact that although the war has
lasted now SIX months, and the ChiLese Government
has been most savage in the threats Of vengeance,
there has not been single European killed in Hong
Kong. not SINGLE fire worthy the name, nor single
serious disturbance Of any kind. The town populs-
ton consists of say eight hundred Europeans to
twelve thousand Chin men. The soldiers number
ohout eight hundred. 1t is well Known too, that
MandariLs in disguise have frequently visited the
place to ipcite rebellion.

These are all large steamers, except the Coro-
ulandel and Hong Kong. Then, besides, there are
the steam gunboats, each of which carries two
enormous guns, OF eight to tcn.incb bore, beside
f UT "a pound brass howitzers. OF these boats there
are seven in active service, carrying AZ guns; so
that ut the present writing We have here feet OF
- vessels mounting 452 gus. Besides these there
are on the way out II steamers Of 22l guns, sad L.
gun.bOats Of 50, making 273 guns.
The French feet is not large, but is room 10 be

The San Jscinto has gone to Shanghse, the

that there IRE United States ships in port There
is no small amount of feeling among the American
reeidents here, on account Of the vac!asing met
6cebcy of our naval force in these waters. Indeed,
their presence has only served to involve American
interests and insure the destruction OF American
property. One ship stopping at Whampea would
have saved all the docks and other improvements.
Even now the noble "Seamen's Bethel might be
safely floating there, with the other valuable chops
ia its neighbOrhoOd, had one ship Stsid to gusr the
reach. But all ran away.
