The report of the Commander of H.M.S. Porpoise was received by Admiral Richards yesterday, but it contained no further news a regards the wreck of the Namchow.

such a chronic abana all over Chins. The inland litis dues are arbitrally fixed, and are most oppressive. To obviate these, the Treaty of Tientsin provides that a European may take goods with him to a specified place toland under a transit pass, for which 24 per cent, is charged, in addition to the Imperial Customs dues. That releases the goods from all further charge, and, of course, leaves the kin people out entirely. So, to force the trade back fato the channels over which they have control, they impered an embargo in the shape of a "town tax, bringing the dues on goods up to the fiffe rate. Then they absolutely prohibited the removal of goods in Falahan, insisting that "consumption on the premises only!! was the rule, which of course la abiurd, Then, to avoid these obstructions, the Europeans sent goods under "native transit passes," which are more expensive than ordinary ones, but still free from bin. Now, as a trump card, the mandarins have selted the whole of the goods In Fatshan and stopped the trade entirely, to the ruin of the traders and the utter defiance of the treaties with Foreign Powers.
