And to enforce this dishonest compuiet, this winst heinous couspiracy, this outrageous. swindle, the fleet was held as collateral se- curity. Mr. Lay, 88 may be supposed,.com- osaled the fraud he had committed, until his arrival at Peking, when in order to procure the balance due and owing for the construe- tion and the equipment of the flent, he abandonmi the fraudulent conditions tu nd imposed, and accepted those which Mr. Hnet suggested. When however the whole of be moner had been paid and himself remuner ated most profanely for his supposed services. ; he turned round and told the Chinese at thorities, that they were not worthy to be entrusted with the feet and that they should not have the ships unless they agreed to his terms-Namely, that all orders to thpt Os here should be sent through him, and that the same should be subject to bis approval omitting all provisoes in case of his death; and rendering his dismissal impossible.
Prince Kung refused to entertain the propo for a moment, Mr Lay instated on his out rageous pretessions. The Prince stated that he would far rather tows the Rest that place
