NEW YORK, January ia bill has been
filed in the United States Circuit Court be-
fore Judge Wallace for the appointment OF
a receiver for the Ontario and Western
railroad, in behalf OF Conrad VI. Jordan as
a common and preferred stockholder. The
bill is returnable tom 'rrow. This SUIT Is
entirely distinct from the Chapman suit.
The bill recites the history OF the compa-
nv as already published in the complain;
against the company filed yesterday, and
alleges that the defendant company " has
no money in its treasury, and no resources
whatever to meet its obligations and pay lis
present or maturing debts; that its credit
is entirely gone. and defendant has be-
come, and now is. wholly disabled from
transacting its financial business and OF
successfully operating its railroad" 1t Is
also set forth that 10y reason OF gross m
competency in the management OF the road
by those now having it in charge the pro-
perty OF the defendant 81 has been injured
wasted, and materially destroyed"

CBy telegraph TO the DispatchI
NEW YoRx. January 16.-A private let
ter received in New York yesterday from a
gentleman residing in Canton, ana dated
December 9Th, contains ,ne Io,ioWing
Things are coming TO critlcai point now
In Tonquin. China Is determined 70 night.
and war can only be avoided Dy France
backing clear down to the GROUND: France
has made an awful muddle OF the whole
affair. Had she acted with force ut first
Tonouin would now be hers, and every
thing would be quiet. The idea OF occu-
pying the country with only thousand or
two troops is too absurd for serions con-
temptation, but that is just what France
attempted.
France, in her delay and want Of reso-
lution. has led China 10 believe that fear
has kent her back, and this idea has taken
s,fch hold OF the Chinese mind that she
will not be satisfied with anything but the
complete surrender OF the position which
France has assumed in TOnquin. Troops
are pouring in from the north. and are be-
ing raised here. ProclamatioDs concern
ing China's responsibility in the event OF
war are daily issued, the latest being to
the effect that the sole responsibility OF the
present unsettled state OF affairs rests with
France and any harm occurring to foreign
ers must Ire laid on the shoulders OF France,
and not on China The latter Government
cannot be responsible for the excitement
caused by the meddIcsome policy OF France.
&c. A Cbinaman told me the other day
that ..lt's no use trying to get along peace
ably with a country like France, which Is
the most troublesome nation that ever en-
isted. China must rise up rs one man and
crush the pride OF the French. Germany
tried 1t. but although she succeeded in
winning the day stopped short OF the
mark: so now It rests with China to con-
plete the humiliation OF proud and AFRO
CANT France"
such is the excitement OF all the Chinese
from The highest to the lowest. some,
however, dread war, and would do all pos
sible to avoid IL.

co that the crowd outside was greater than
within. There was larger number OF Ia
dies present than heretofore. Among the
snecfotors-all OF evidently well-to-do
cIasses-Mrs. Mutt and Lizzie were early
ON hand and occupied their accustomed
seats. Hon. Daniel VOORHEES, was also in
his place. He will sum up for the defence.
promptly at $3.50 O'Clock the court opened.
MIR. Playford, for defence, began the pro-
ceedings by outlining the case.
DR.. Smith Fuller, the first witness, testi-
fed that he had attended the Mutt family
seventeen wears, and had treated the de-
PENDANT several times when sick; that he
always believed him to be mentally def
cient and without sound mental attributes,
and that he would be inclined to harbor
feelings Of enmity which would increase
with Time. and would probably become Il
monomaniac on the subject: DIR. Fuller
snrther stated that persons Of James Nutt's
temperamcnt, mentally broodiug on his
fathers death, would unsettlc and inca
nacitate him from mental control over him
self, He considered him an 9mbeclle
not an idiot.
