REBELLION IN OHINA. {From the Friend of China, Jan. 30} ; Under the head Canton, and in other sartsof this paper, we mention the beeaguerment of the Imperial Commissionwr Sue and suite in the south western yart of the Canton Province. Lately we had an opportunity of conversing with » Mandarin bolding the brevet rank of Yun-tai, an officer of the third class, and andeavored to obtain from him an opinon as to the truth of the rumor, and what would be the result should Sue be saptured That there was such a rewrt he admitted, but he doubted its verfect truth, Sue, lie said, would certainly destroy himself rather than be made a prisoner. Regarding Canton. he thought there were too many obstaoles in the way of its being renched by the rebe's; but that there area great many diaaffected spirits in the city is well known, who may be biding their time. Should the rebela indeed come to Canton, our informant added, the so only means of safety would . be flight to the hills. For what has been done by the rebels . ‘during the month now ending, so far as known to us, we refer our readers to the compendium of extracts fiom bi-weekly issues. We have two long papers, translations of some of our Chinese correspondence, . one telling of the taking of the chief city of the Chin-kong district of Kwangsi, and a hard fight between the impe‘rialigt troops and those of the rebels; ‘and in which we have the usual report of thousands killed, and thousands wounded. The city had been thoroughly ransacked — prisoners released, etc . ‘The other paper tells of the bad con-. duct of the imperialist soldiery, when n roule to the seat of war, and of organized bodies of them being set upon and} dispersed by the common pecple. (From our Correepondents.) } A court messenger arrived last week, jwith an order frora the Emperor to raise ‘a million teals of silver for payment of ithe troops. The officials contributed 400,000 of it without delay, leaving ane ‘remainder of it to be made up by the ‘rich families. Meetings have been held . at Tai fut chie, daily, ever sinco the 26th . (the 16th inst) to consider the rescript, but, to quote the exact words used by the Chinese in writing us “they, the rich people, looked at one another—and refused to prepare the sum” We give below the intelligence from! the disturbed districts, of which we made mention in our last isaue. = It is not generally known, wo believe, that the Chineee Government have offered the Superintendent here of the Peningular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, large sums per month for the services of two sieamers to aid them in their operations agninst the rebel flect on the coast. By the report from Ningpo. as published in the North China Herald of the 20th ult, it will be seen that a victory was gained by the pirates, chicfly through treachery. We have heard that the district cities . of Woo-heen, on the south, and Chaou. ying on the east side of Yung-gan-chow, in Kwangse, have boen taken possession of by the rebels, who immediately opened all the graneries and treasuries for benefit of the people, and remitted all taxes for the present year. Wo have received a letter from! Kwangse, stating that the groat Tartar . General, Sae-shang-ah reveived an im-. ieee rescript insisting that the city of fung-gan-chow be again brought under royal authority within the space of fif. teen days, pe . that in case of failure, the General Heang-ying, Lieut. General Woo-lan-tai and Colonel Ting--am were to he beheaded. On tho receipt of this} news, on the 17th day of the 10th moon, ! ull the officers collected their troops, . and from various points proceeded toat teck the city of Yung-gan-chow. The} rebels, however, pretending to be de-. feated, gradually led them on to where they had a large body of troops in am. bueh, and then suddenly turning upon . them poured forth a complete shower of canon balls, killing upwards of 10,000 soldiers und more than 60 officers of various ranks, It isreported that Seu, the Governor . General, is at present in the city of Knou-. chow-foo, and that the rebe!s havo attacked it on all sides, having erected a powerful battery before each of the city gates so as to be ready toattack the sol-. dieis whenever they venture to eome out. The Tartar troops are afraid to go out and fight, and have new been beseiged for more than ten days. Wel} haye not yet heard which side has gained the vietory.--F. of . . Jan 7. ; A rebellion bas broken out in the} Sin-on district of this (Canton) province. . On the 20th day of the 11th moun, the! officers engaged in collecting the taxes. found some who had no meansof paying. . but instead of seizing these men, they} took their elder brothers into custody, . especially the richer cnes, from whom; they expected to obtain a good deal of money us ransom. The howeyer, became enraged and 1ose and killed the magistrate of the district. . MR, DUSUZEAU, SAYER AND SMELTER, well known tor two and a half years in Sacraraento street San Francisco, to Broad street Nevada city. fe also announces,to the public that receiv. ing more numercus applications for assays, . and secing a large number of miners vecuy ied . in prospecting and working quartz veins, to facilitatethem in ¢heir searches, he hus re. duced his Assaying price to $15,00 instead of . 20,00, which it was al first.

REBELLION IN OHINA. {From the Friend of China, Jan. 30} ; Under the head Canton, and in other sartsof this paper, we mention the beeaguerment of the Imperial Commissionwr Sue and suite in the south western yart of the Canton Province. Lately we had an opportunity of conversing with » Mandarin bolding the brevet rank of Yun-tai, an officer of the third class, and andeavored to obtain from him an opinon as to the truth of the rumor, and what would be the result should Sue be saptured That there was such a rewrt he admitted, but he doubted its verfect truth, Sue, lie said, would certainly destroy himself rather than be made a prisoner. Regarding Canton. he thought there were too many obstaoles in the way of its being renched by the rebe's; but that there area great many diaaffected spirits in the city is well known, who may be biding their time. Should the rebela indeed come to Canton, our informant added, the so only means of safety would . be flight to the hills. For what has been done by the rebels . ‘during the month now ending, so far as known to us, we refer our readers to the compendium of extracts fiom bi-weekly issues. We have two long papers, translations of some of our Chinese correspondence, . one telling of the taking of the chief city of the Chin-kong district of Kwangsi, and a hard fight between the impe‘rialigt troops and those of the rebels; ‘and in which we have the usual report of thousands killed, and thousands wounded. The city had been thoroughly ransacked — prisoners released, etc . ‘The other paper tells of the bad con-. duct of the imperialist soldiery, when n roule to the seat of war, and of organized bodies of them being set upon and} dispersed by the common pecple. (From our Correepondents.) } A court messenger arrived last week, jwith an order frora the Emperor to raise ‘a million teals of silver for payment of ithe troops. The officials contributed 400,000 of it without delay, leaving ane ‘remainder of it to be made up by the ‘rich families. Meetings have been held . at Tai fut chie, daily, ever sinco the 26th . (the 16th inst) to consider the rescript, but, to quote the exact words used by the Chinese in writing us “they, the rich people, looked at one another—and refused to prepare the sum” We give below the intelligence from! the disturbed districts, of which we made mention in our last isaue. = It is not generally known, wo believe, that the Chineee Government have offered the Superintendent here of the Peningular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, large sums per month for the services of two sieamers to aid them in their operations agninst the rebel flect on the coast. By the report from Ningpo. as published in the North China Herald of the 20th ult, it will be seen that a victory was gained by the pirates, chicfly through treachery. We have heard that the district cities . of Woo-heen, on the south, and Chaou. ying on the east side of Yung-gan-chow, in Kwangse, have boen taken possession of by the rebels, who immediately opened all the graneries and treasuries for benefit of the people, and remitted all taxes for the present year. Wo have received a letter from! Kwangse, stating that the groat Tartar . General, Sae-shang-ah reveived an im-. ieee rescript insisting that the city of fung-gan-chow be again brought under royal authority within the space of fif. teen days, pe . that in case of failure, the General Heang-ying, Lieut. General Woo-lan-tai and Colonel Ting--am were to he beheaded. On tho receipt of this} news, on the 17th day of the 10th moon, ! ull the officers collected their troops, . and from various points proceeded toat teck the city of Yung-gan-chow. The} rebels, however, pretending to be de-. feated, gradually led them on to where they had a large body of troops in am. bueh, and then suddenly turning upon . them poured forth a complete shower of canon balls, killing upwards of 10,000 soldiers und more than 60 officers of various ranks, It isreported that Seu, the Governor . General, is at present in the city of Knou-. chow-foo, and that the rebe!s havo attacked it on all sides, having erected a powerful battery before each of the city gates so as to be ready toattack the sol-. dieis whenever they venture to eome out. The Tartar troops are afraid to go out and fight, and have new been beseiged for more than ten days. Wel} haye not yet heard which side has gained the vietory.--F. of . . Jan 7. ; A rebellion bas broken out in the} Sin-on district of this (Canton) province. . On the 20th day of the 11th moun, the! officers engaged in collecting the taxes. found some who had no meansof paying. . but instead of seizing these men, they} took their elder brothers into custody, . especially the richer cnes, from whom; they expected to obtain a good deal of money us ransom. The howeyer, became enraged and 1ose and killed the magistrate of the district. . MR, DUSUZEAU, SAYER AND SMELTER, well known tor two and a half years in Sacraraento street San Francisco, to Broad street Nevada city. fe also announces,to the public that receiv. ing more numercus applications for assays, . and secing a large number of miners vecuy ied . in prospecting and working quartz veins, to facilitatethem in ¢heir searches, he hus re. duced his Assaying price to $15,00 instead of . 20,00, which it was al first.
