THE LATE AUDIENCE IN PEKING.

Austrian diplomacy scored a decided victory on the 27th ult. In Peking, through H. E. Baron ven Biegeleben having been received in audience by the Emperor. Our readers will remember that the first audience during the reign of Emperor Kuangshi took place in March of the present year, in the See-Kuang-Ko, used for the Ambassadors from foreign countries and tributary nations, as Tibet, Nepaal, etc. On account of this place being the reception hall for tributary nations, there has always been a dispute about it, whenever the audience question has been mooted regarding the reception of Foreign Ministers. Last spring the whole thing nexily fell through, because the Foreign Ministers refused to be received there, for the same old reason, and they only cansented to the proposition, after they had promised that a new ball was to be built, dedicated to that purpose. During the audience of last spring the Ministers for Russia, France and Austria did not assist because they were absent from Peking. The envoy plenipotentiary for the last named Power. Baron von Biegeleben, arrived in Peking a few weeks ago, from Tokio, his place of residence, (he being also accredited to Japan and Slam) to present his credentials to the Emperor, After several weeks' wallings occasioned by the Minister's refusal to be received in the above named hail, be was informed that the Emperor would grant him an audience at 9 am, the 27th October, in the Cheng Kuan temple. Accordingly. His Excellency went there at the appointed time, accompinted by the interpreter of the German Legation, Baron von der Goltz. The ceremony was exactly the same, as in the spring -The Emperor sat upon his throne, with Prince Ching and several other bigh Officials by the aide. Herr von Biegeleben, accompained by his tnterpreter, approached the throne slowly, stop ping thrice, bowing each time, and handing with a short Appropriate speech his credential to Prince Ching, who placed it upon the table before the throne; Baron v.d. Galtz translated the speech into Chinese, which Prince Ching repeated in Manchu to the Emperor. The latter nodded and replied in Manchu, which was rendered by the Prince in Chinese, and interpreted by Herr von der Golts to the Minister in German. This finished the cere mony, which lasted about 10 minutes in all. Baron von Biegeleben left the Hall, walking backward, and again bowing thrice-to the Emperor The Cheng-kuan-tien is altuated in the Si-yuen, (Western Park) and has a cireum- ference of about 3 miles. It contains a lake, and formerly the palace of the Mongol dynasty from 1202 to 1368 A.D., was in this park, as well as several other temples, amongst them those of the rain-god, (Ta-kau-tten) and of thunder. From the farmer temple a road leads through a large gate, and not far distant from the latter there is a high round wall, over which the crowns of splendid trees may be observed this Is the so-called Tu'an-cheng, inside of which is the Cheng-kuan-ilen temple, where the audience took place. The building was erected during the Mongol dynasty.-Translated from Dar Ostasiatliche Lisydi.

FOR NOT PRIVENTING PERVERSIONS.
