PEKING:
16th August.
Our siaubgues ters admits the promptitude with which the Shon-pao pulishes Peking Guzelics; and so I don't need to give you a trans lation of the Decree by whish Chang How is mate fally pardanod. Here, we have sauthor faroe of Chinese polities. When Chang How's expital punishment was temporarily released, the Tsung-
Tamên spoke in its introductory dispatch re ferring to it, of its being a permanent reprieve and that Doare, of which you are a corre t verbal translation speaks in the most friendly, nay bumiliating, torns of Russia, such as Turkey would now besitate to apply to Rassie; but jast for that reason this Imperial Decree never appeared in the Pekiny Goutte, whilst the present one did appear. Afterexchanges of telegraphie dispatches and vacions procrastinations, Marquis Tsang is obliged by rapsated argent demands to proceed to St. Petersburg, as I asid befors the prudent Marga's did not succeed in getting his predeces Bor as collage, via econd Chinese anga Lister, but Russia's Erm attibule, not to listen to Buy feeh proposals from Chins, and acquis Tseng's propcanced relaetauco to me the grent reapoability, led to the issue of the last Im. perial Dears. Taless China should first bare declared war upon Russia, this Doczes was an in- dispensable consequence of the above. Therefore it was not in deferface to the wishes of Foreig Ministors that Chung How was released, hut. owing to Murquis. Teong's reluctance, and Rus- sis's refusal, to treat until he was paciomad. I
