Atrocities in Anam-Reports of the
 Cruelty of French Troops Confirmed
 Wholesale Massacre.
 PARIS, Oct. 29.-Mail advices from Saigon show that the French forces in their encouE- ters near a-Noi, in the early part of Sep tember, met Chinese regulars, who were well armed and oficered. After 8 conflict of three days, during which the French took some of the enemy's works, they withdrew, leaving Hai Phong still in the hands of the enemy. Some of the troops of the King of Anam were with the enemy.
 A letter from Saigon to the France says that unheard of cruelties were committed near Hue, on the occasion of it's capture by rected, in an official order, that there should be no quarter given to men, women, or children. Three hundred Anamites, who had taken refuge in the mouth of the bay of Thuan, were shot. One hundred and fifty more, who were drifting in junk, without arms or oars, were also massacred. The Figaro declares that Admiral Courbet, at the instance of Commissioner Harmand, allowed the perpstration of such acts in order to ter rorize the Anamites. The Temps denies that Admiral Courbet gave such orders, but admits that 1,20O of the enemy were slain at Thuan.
 LONDON, Oct. 29.-The Chinese Legation has furnished the newspapers with copies of the entire correspondence that passed be- tween the Marquis Tseng, the Chinese Am bassador, and M. Challemel-Lacour, the French Minister of Foreign Affairs, upon the Tonquin question. The correspondence embraces twenty seven communications.
 The Paris correspondent of the Standard says it is clear that the negotiations between France and China upon the Tonquin question have been broken of for the present. The relations now existing between the two coun- 1 tries can only be described as at a deadlock. The Franco Chinese correspondence adds 1 little to that already published, except that it offers arguments in favor of China's posi-
 ton. It denies that the Marquis Tseng ever ] assured M. Challemel Laaour that Ohins would not oppose Frances enterprise in Ton 1 quiD, and says that, before July last, M Trieou, the then French Ambassador to Chi
 na, informed Lii Hung Chang that either open or occult assistance of Anam by Chinf 1 would involve casus belli

 Repe.I of an Impractical POstaI Order.
 WAsHNeroN, Oct. 29.-on October 9th the railway postal service issued an order forbidding postal clerks from leaving pouches, sacks and locks in the cars unless special permission was granted. The purpose of this order was, among other things, to pre- vent the accumulation of unused pouches in the cars. to provide for the safer keeping of the bags and to make certain that whenever the mail should be weighed for readjustment of pay the cars would not be fall of empty sacks It has been discovered, however, that to strip the cars of the poEches in many in stances delays the mails, particularly near the large cities; and as the accumulation of bags can be prevented without causing delay to the mails, the Postmaster General will direct that the following part of the order of. October 9th be rescinded: No pouches, sacks or other property of the department must be left in the cars unless special per- mission to do 80 is granted.n
