We find In the Northern Christian Adro-
cate, Methodist paper, the following
alleged proclamation by the heathcns Of a
Chinese community against some foreign
Christians who propose to settle among
them:
"The Chinese gentry Of Kea.nins send out the FOL
lowing.
Nouce is hereby given that during the sixth and
onth months OF last year. people have been hewiched
and their queues cut of by mps reported that these
things effected by reprobates belonging - thoorisn

" that religion must nrst swallow tic medicine that i
given them and utterly destroy the tablets " their

the Christian religion, either in the city villages
Should any be enced into that religion, We must not
beat them. but Will pull down their houses, and ever
after the place shall be abandoned ground

that religion will shoot rubbish there in heap that
shall cover it, we will certainly show forbearance.
