The North American brings US important intelligence
from China. The Anglo French Expedition, after great

on the famous Taku Forts and after engagement Of
three hours Duration took possession Of them with

the Chinese is not stated The victory was not barren

is serious difference Of opinion entertained to
whether that movement should be in the shape Of a
formidable army-or only an Embassy az the head Of
handful OF cavalry. The Dispatches forwarded to
London, are very fu-bu they to justify the

Though we are unable this morning TO announce the
result of the late election in this State least

the receipt Of the unwelcome reports from Little Ter

show majority for Bell of 1899 while the reports frou
81 counties give Breckenridge majority Of SO9l-thus
putting Bell POS ahead as far as heard from. In the
nine counties be heard from we have the following
ports:
Ca5sH-Reported majority for Bell 100.

OF ALL TIE STATES.

The President begins to talk about Dsunien and, in
order avert that calamity Saturday expressed
opinion in favor Of Convention in which all the States
be represented. This suggestion has been made
10 certain other quarters and based upon the expeca
ton Of several guarantees-one Of which is to include
distinct recognition of the right OF State to secede from
the Union about which there seems to be some differ
dence. Among other guarantees the repeal OF the
State laws interfering with the execution Of the fugitive
slave law in certain OF the free States and such recog
