Some years ago, he was arrested by the French Government, at Boulogne, and is presumed to have been irritated at this circumstance, for he wrote an violent letter to the police in Paris, in which, after lengthy complaining of this infraction of the Law of Nations, he ended by saying, that the Bourbons had committed an act on his person which might hurl them from the throne.—Journal by T.

PUBLIC AUCTION.
[No. 23.—JUNE 3, 1856.]
There is some difference of opinion in these two cases. There is in fact a considerable difference between asserting by the Neutrality ordinance No. 1 of 1865 that the ships of war of our Ally the Emperor of China shall be seized and confiscated by the SUPERINTENDENT OF POLICE AND CHIEF MAGISTRATE!! if found in the harbour of Hongkong, and the second paragraph of the above opinion. "We (the Law Officers of the Crown) do not concur in the conclusion of the Acting Attorney General" "that the Chinese are to be considered as beyond the pale of civilized nations,"

The "Rose" left, this about ten minutes past six o'clock, and had reached the western side of Tonkun bay, when having hugged the land too closely, her starboard bow struck on a sunken rock, opening so much of her side that she immediately filled forward and went down, drowning 26 Chinese in the forecastle, Fortunately for others on board, her stern part hung on the rock, and it was but until the next day that the whole of the body of the vessel went down. Before a coroner's jury held on view of ten of the bodies that had been brought here, the engineer stated that he chanced to be on deck at the time the vessel struck, that he heard the Captain saying "stop her" which was immediately done,—that in a minute or so, he heard the Captain again cry "go on, all right," when the engines were put to work, but they had only made three revolutions when the water rushed into the engine room; that having again turned off the steam he was engaged in drawing the fires, but before he was enabled to do so, the water had reached his middle.
