The commerce and navigation of France with China engaged in 1844, according to information gathered at Canton, six ships, whose movements are thus given. One of them arrived at the end of 1843, and left in 1844, four arrived and departed in the course of 1844, the last arrived in 1944, but did not sail again till 1845. These six ships touch.

A report is prevalent among the Chinese in Canton, that positive orders to open the gates to foreigners, have been received from Peking; and that proclamations to that effect will be issued by the local authorities. A Gentleman who left the provincial city a few days ago, slates that in a conversation with one of the principal native merchants, the receipt of the Im perial edict was mentioned as a matter beyond a doubt, and that orders of a most stringent des cription had been promulgated, threatening with condign punishment, the bad people who might attempt to molest foreigners on their entering the city. We are not aware that His Excellency Sir John Davis has received any official in timation of the Emperor's decision on this knot- ty point; but it is probable that it he has, the next issue of the government paper will throw some light upon the subject.
The foreign residents of Canton may not be immediately, or directly benefited by the privi- lege of entering the city, nor is it probable that they will often avail themselves of a right, long with-held, bet now to be conceded. The eatinued exclusion from Canton, after the admission of the justice of our claim to free tercourse with the people of the five ports open commerce, became a point of honour, and such it has been viewed-so far as we have lad opportunities of observing-by nearly all the foreign residents of Canton.
