The Hong Kong Trade Report OF the 30th u
March represents the Envoys of Great Britain,
France, the United States, and Russa having all
arrived at Shanehse, and tina. all these powers are
doing their best at display of naval force iu that
v:cinity-the French and Ecglish having with
drawn fer that purpose all the ships they could pos
sibly spare from CAUTION. Our American ships
bave also been CT ccted from their several stations
ard concentrated near Sbanghse. The Russians
make the east show, as their fleet detached from
Cronssdt for the Chinese waters had not yet ar.
rived. The report Of the Chinese Commsslorer
Honsng to the Emperor, which has been published,
is thought TO augur f.yorably FOR the negotlstion.
It appears that this functionary has been dig
patched to Iooee Choo, the same city CAT no great
distance from Sbanghae) at which the Letters 81 tee
Embss sadcrs 10 the Emperor were lately delivered
The illusions made BY the Commissioner to foreign
steamers, and the permission to make voyage
which he has received from the Emperor, are I'm.
dtrstocd as referring 10 the proposed conference,
and TO imply an authority to meet the En7oys on
board their ships wherever else 1t may be neces-
ssry. It is even corjectured that the terms OF
treaty have been ady agreed upon at Pekin, and
that il only remains to put them into form.
OF the state Of thing: at Canton the Hong Kong
paper does not give SO favorable an account The
allied authorities are represented as at once arb
t,s1y ard powerless There is no system AID no
responsibility, and everything is in confusion. In
fact. tie allies are represented as the mere duPes
of the Chinese Governor, Pehkwi, who rules
the city in their name, and who is suspected of
secret conniyarce with the Chinese braves outside
the walls. By bis persuasions and advice, the allies
have been prevented from attempting to diSlodse
those besiegers. According to other accounts now
ever. the continual rains by which the rlce,iield'
are inundated are assigned as reastn for delaying
operatiens, which can cply be conducted with avery
small force along narrow cause.ways traverane d
morass. Besides, there is hope that eVeFJsning
NAV speedily be settled BY treaty.
Meanwhile, the domestic traffic which torniefy

A report is current in Illinois that Senator
DOUGLAS will be candidate this Fall for the
House, probably in place of Col. Harris, whose
health though improved. is still very precarious.
Mr. Douglas possibly rene mbers that Henry Clay,
after having been twice sent for frag nents of
terms 10 the Senate. was elected TO the House,
and, or the fret day of his membership of that
body, was chosen its Speaker. The next House
will be Absolutely obliged to recast the Revenue
policy Of the Government and to do something
toward the much ded Rstrenchment Of Esren-
ditures, whereof much has been said and 50 little
effected. The Senate is constituted that an
able energetic capable ststesmsn, who aspires to
be not negatively but positively uiefal to the
country, must naturally prefer sent in the House.
These considerations give plausiblty to the report
respecting Mr. Douglas which reaches US from
Illinois. Should he DO a candidate for the House
from Col. HaIris's or any other Democratic
District, the opposition to him is not likely to be
formidable, whether the postmasters shall be finally
instructed to support or oppose him.

The vote N Maine on the question between a Pro.
bbitory Liquor Jaw and License law would seem
to show that the only actual on .stion nowa.day is
between prohibition and free erog. In Maine
scarcely anybody took the trouble to vote for a
Gcepse law. AID if we MAJ jadge from what has
trsnspred in this State, and especially 10 this city,
Ice use law is everywhere chiefly asked for merely
q, a cover for unlimited selling. Those who adj
vocated ard obtained license law have evinced
very little disposition, at least in this city, to em'

The railway baggage agents have had another
annual Con7enton-holden this tune at Chicago.
W. S. Brow Of the Great Western Railway, was
appointed Chairman, and X. G. White Of the Chi
caso and Rsck Island Railroad, Secretary. Every
thing under the heavens being now agitated not
settled, By conventions, the baggage agents u the
many and widely spread railroads meet in grand
couclaye 70 discuss the question Of lost and found
trunks, yalses aud boxes; the best mode OF check
ing and counter checking, and OF generally ameio'
rating TIE condition of the travelling public in these
particulars. In regard to the particular matter OF
baggage the arrangements Of the railroads are ex'
cellen. and indeed the traveller has no trouble.
The baggage delivery companies, too, are ons OF
the most agreeable productions of the age. The
traveller 10 longer has to watch for his trunks, bat
simply to proceed to bis hotel after tedious jour
ney where his effects arrive shortly afterward.
TIE l1sses-of trunk, not hycs-by travellers on
railroads are next to nothing. Thirty-three pack
ages of lost baggage and freight were reported as
found to our G. JnyentiOn and WILL be restored to
the Owners.
We do not know to what extent the Baggage
Agents Convention goes, but if it could possibly
Guard the manners 10 railroad care, as well as the
property Of the travellers in the baggage train, il
would be blessing. A man who travels is placed
in longitudinal cars, it may be with ro Tdies and ruff
fans swearing splitting tobacco juice, and outraging
all proprie.y. The Convention will meet again in
Chicago on the 10th of November, aud invites the
&C operation Of all the baggage men. But would it
not BIZ well to enlarge the nature of the operations
Of The Convention The baggage defects are small
the otasIs are great, and they need reform.
There should be ode of behayior-sf the rights
of trayelsrs to seats-of immunity from tobacco
