The correspondent of The Times, writing from Can
ton River under date December TO- says that fek has
returned an insolent answer TO the ultmatum OF the
English and French Plenipotentiaries, and that the
two forces would in q few days attack Canton.
Lord Elgin's demand was of the most temperate
character He asked for no more than that the
treaty should be carried out that Canton should be
put upon the same footing the other treaty ports
its gates open to commences that compensation to he
given for the damage TO British Merchants and that
the occupation Of the Island Of Honan be acquesced
IN, as material guarantee, until all matters are
settled.
A letter from Hong Kong says that Yek's answer to
Lord Egin Is couched IN sarcastic vein. He tells
his Iordshp that the question Of the treatment of
strangers at Canton has been settled by decree of
the Emperor; that Sir George Bonham was made
Baronet for respecting that decree, and recommends
Lord Elgin TO follow his example, and for compen-
sstiop Yek had demanded Of the British Government
for losses suffered by China.
A few DAYS before this answer was received Mr.
Reid the Amer IAN Commissioner, solicited an inter-
view in the city, and Yek replied that he would meet
him outside of the city but that no barbarian should
set foot within the limits OF Canton.

all that is worth knowing before he leaves.
On the next Sunday the people will know
all about it and its religious uses.-The
next literary address will be rich in illus
trallon drawn from that sail down the
hay: and when the merchants assemble
on festive occasion, he will electrify them
by figures drawn from their own bust
ness and calling, and they will be de-
lighted and surprised that parson can

will be given with a sonorous voice,
clear enunciation, vehement delivery,
in which sweat will stand on the brow,

The prospects for improvement in this

more building going on than the most

There is large number of buildings now

SHoRTER's OPINION OF THE PILGRIM

lightened representatives of Alabama in
Congress, in recent speech, utters him
self thus amiably with regard to the Pill
grim Fathers:
The Pilgrim Fathers, indeed! Sir,
l have q sovereign contempt for the me-
mory of the Pilgrim Fathers. The relig-
ion of Plymouth Rock is the religion Of
fanaticism, of intolerance, of infdelity, of
bigotry and hypocrisy. 1t is the religion
of the Boston clergymen, who violate the
seventh commandment in going to and
returning from their evening lectures; and
who, when exposed to the Indignation of
a vir,uous community, are lionized and
teted by the fairer portion of their f1ocks !
In my Judgment, Mr.. Chairman, the great
est calamity that has ever befel our coun-
try was that event which clothed Plym-
outh Rock with its historic associations"

of his defection-while he was having
interviews with the President in the hope
that they might come to some agreement
the latter remarked to him that it was
very perilous for a public man to put
himself in opposition to his party, and
that he must take the liberty of reminding
him of the fate of Rives and Tallmadge,
who rebelled against the policy of Gen.
Jackson. "Permit me, Mr.. President"
