• THE FANTAN MONOPOLT. There are muffled, rumours that a certain nancial maymate from Canton purports approaching the Government with an offer of '9000,000 for the Fantan Monopoly.

A PROCLAMATION OF PEACE.

The officials of Canton have issued proclamation advising the people to zitend } to their usual business, and not to give any attention to any disquieting rumours that may come to their ears. It is pointed out that the restlessness has our past, and everything possible has been done to ensure the peacefulness of the city. The xtreme care that was taken in -examining all those who passed in and out of the city has been somewhat relied, and so there need not be any farther anxiety. On the other hand, severe threats are hurled against those who try to stir up the minds of the people, and if it can be discovered who have been guilty of issuing unsigned placards-causing the people to be in tear, they will be subjected to the full penalty of the law, and of military law at that. It ecess, therefore, that things will soon assume their normal flow, though there will not be any real pesso until the officials cense to arrost anyone who happens to be without a quoue, for whilst this is being done, there is certain to be a good deal of talk, and, whilst people are talking about what is going on, there cannot be any ali factory allaying of natural agitation.
