CHINA.

Colin Jameson, who recently arrived at
Cheloo to act as Commissioner OF Customs,
mysteriously disappeared on the 31st of
October and has not since been seen. Foul
play is suspected.
The Chinese troops have suffered rather
severe defeat from the savages in South
Formosa, three or four hundred of them
having been killed The southern part of
the island is very dissatisfied owing to the
oppressive taxes levied by the Viceroy's
minions and the apparent neglect of the
Viceroy himself.
Recently mob attacked the China In
land and Methodist Episcopal Missions at
Mauk-ang, destroyed both chape.s and the
opium refuge, and stoned the officials who
attempted to interfere. The missionaries
and ladies took refuge in the Yamen.
The German steamer Duburg, which left
Singapore for Hongkong on the 25th of
October, has not since been heard of and it
is feared she may have encountered the re-
cent typhoon and foundered. II so the dis
astel is an appalling one, for she had on
board 400 passengers.

nounced that paragraph of the Depart
ment's circular of September 2Sth last, re-
lating TO the transit of Chinese laborers

HOW TO IDENTIFY THEM.
WASHINGTON, December 7th.-Congress-
man Morrow has had a consultation with
superintendent of Census Porter, with a
view of enlisting the service Of the Census
Bureau in aid Of the anti Chinese cause.
Morrow proposed to the Commissioner
that the census enumerators, besides num-
bering the Chinese now in this country,
should keep register of them, to be re-
fcrred 10 when coolies present return GER
ti6cates, thereby preventing frauds and es-
tablishing beyond all question the identity
try. Porter expressed himself very favor
ably toward the plan.
