The Pirate Alabama Excluded from
Chinese Ports.
Important Action OF the Chinese
Government.

On the Sth of March last, Mr. Bur
lingame, American Minister to China,
notified the Government of that country
of the appearance of the pirate Ala
bama in the Chinese seas, and requested
that she should be excluded from Chi
nese ports. Prince Kung replied as
follows, declaring that he had given
orders for her exclusion:
"Prinee Kung, Chief Secretary of
State for Foreign Affairs, herewith
sends a reply.
Z" had the honor to receive your Ex-
cellency's dispatch on the Sth instant
in which you inform me that the south
ern part of the United States has risen
in rebellion to the Government; and
that a steamer, called the Alabama, is
now cruising ON the ocean, burning and
destroying vessels and property of their
citizens; you therefore request that a
proclamation be issued forbidding her
to enter the ports of China, &c.
sit appears from this, that by the
rebellion Of the Southern portion Of the
United States against their Government,
your country is placed very much in
the same position that China is, whose
seditious subjects are now in revolt
against her; and as it is highly desira-
bic to prevent this rebel steamer from
iniuring or molesting American mer-
chant ships, / have notified the various
Governor, Generals and Governors Of
the maritime provinces that if the
steamer Alabama, or any other ship in
tending to injure American shipping
come into their Jurisdiction, they are
on no account to permit such vessels to
come into any port. They are required
to issue a proclamation to this effect
Immediately, as a measure adapted to
promote the general welfare.
& i have informed the ministers of
Great Britain, France, and Russia of
these proceedings, that they may notify
their consuls at the several ports for
their guidance. | also inclose a copy
of the dispatch issued to the various
governors for your Excellencys infOr
nation

The Awful American Conflict as It Ap-
pears I'm EUFODe.

PARIS, Friday, May p, 1864
OF what interest can EurOgean news
be-Of what inteFess can 0aH news be
to Americans, in the face of such
events as are passing at home among
themselves Even here the appalling
tidings which have been forced upon
our startled ears by the terrible tele-
grams of Monday and yesterday have
produced q sort Of lull of stupor and
astonishment Such deeds of arms.
men say, have never been read of in ro-
nance, much less realized in action
Have giants broken loose, they ask, who
thus fight battles, not of days, but Of
weeks, and piles up slaughter in face of
which the bloOdiest conflicts of Europe
seem pale and unsanguinary Cur Pari-
sian newspapers seems almost TO shrink
in terror from commenting on the fear
ful tale of mingled herosim and car
mage to which we have been listening
or venture only upon a few lines of omi-
nous whisper on the dreadful work of
destruction which has been going for
ward In fact there is not much said
men hold up their hands in silent dis,
may, or ask, in low tones, If it be in
deed possible that forty thousand hu-
man beings on the one side and more
still, probably, OH the other, have really
fallen in so short a space of time in
that Wilderness, which seems to
have been swept by the very bosom of
destruction.
Geherally speaking, when news Of a
great battle or victory from America

the chief feeling awakened, and one

seem to fail them from fear, and there
are few words used because it is felt
that none could adequately express
their thoughts. Speculation on the
future is hardly attempted, and even
judgement on the past stands almost
silent from dismay. All can venture
to say, as to the current Of public opin-
ion here, is that it runs most steadily
in two directions First, upon the super
human resolution and tenacity Of the
A. ttAtIdA OCiltAd ia III AAAt dILtlhf pursuit
and incessant continuity Of the com
bat; and secondly upon the probabili-
ty of ultimate exhaustion on the part Of
the Confederate powers Of resistance.
The way in which these two consider
ations appear to predominate and re-
peat themselves shows that in general
estimation it is thought that the greater
power, now that its strength is eliectual-
ly put forth, must win in the end, and
that q conclusion to the conflict may
be at last approaching

The Chicago Convention.

The opposition journals appear to be
in difficulties in regard to the Chicago
Convention The Daily News-the or
gan of the Woods-deslres the meeting
to be postponed. "There is every rea-
son why hasty and premature nomi-
nation should be avoided by the Demo
cracy," it saws the black Republicans
at Baltimore have nominated their can
didate. and the war Democrats at Cleve-
land have nominated their candidates
We can watch their man0auvers, search
for their strong points and their weak
points, and profit by their errors as by
a knowledge of their advantages From
the fourth of September to election day
there win be ample time for the Demo
cracy to conduct the canvass with efiec-
tiveness.
Il is little odd that the Daily News
and the other journals of the same
principles are less ,sanguine about the
nomination Of General Mcclellan. than
they were some months ago. At that
time he was the most peaceful general,
and the faYorite candidate Of Wood 3
peace party. Lately but little is said
in his favor by the peace men Indeed
the Journal of Commerce, which also
discusses the Chicago Convention, takes
pains to assure people that "of all the
men who are named here and there as
possible candidates at Chicago, there is
not once, as far as we know, who seeks
the nomination, not one who would not
more gladly see another man selected
But the Journal does not agree with
the News in favoring an adjournment
Il speaks, indeed, as though the News
was radical and "wire-pulleT," and
any number Of other dreadful things
The radicals, it says, are endeavoF-
ing to SOW dissension among the Oppo-
si1ion. They are looking anxiously for
an adjournment Of the Chicago Con
vention 10 later day, SO that they
may have opportunity to create diyis-
ions and bring up various candidates.
But there is little danger Of their sue
cess. If the democrats were managed
By wire-pullers they might succeed.
Fortunately the few Wire-pullers left
are as well convinced as any one that
success must be achieved by a cordial
and hearty unity in the convention.
OF one thing the public Is confident
IL assured, however, by the Journal
whether the convention is put off or
not, It's members will have q pretty
time looking for candidates. The man
who is 10 be nominated at Chicago,
whoever he is, says the Journal will
be earnestly sought and found BY the
men who nominate him, and VIII not
have besn packing delegations and buy
ing off opposition by pledges or prOmi-
ses TO any one. All she candidates win
