tiie legislature of this state
\iljournecl, on Wednesday last, sine die.—
. A C ts passed during the session will be
f nd in our columns to-daV. The Bill to re-
f "m the Penal Code, and the" Act to legalize the
Proceedings of the courts in this state, occ. have
passed both branches of the legislature.
ENGLISH EMBASSY TO CHINA.
The Prince of Wales Island Gazette, of June
co states, that lord Amherst, the ambassador to
China, was expected to touch there shortly, on
his way to Canton.-. The object of this diplo
matic mission, the English take some pains to
conceal—were credit due the ministerial papers,
nothin" farther would seem to be contemplated
hy it, tlian a mere interchange of civilities w ith
the imperial sovereign of China; but scanty'as
are the means of obtaining correct information
with regard to tlie internal state of that coun
try. enough has transpired to convince us, that
the' ancient edifice of Chinese polity is crumb
ling into ruins—its very basis quaking to the
undulations of anarchy and rebellion.
Ever since the time when De jGama doubled
the Cape of Good i/ope, the policy of Europe
an nations has, in similar ihstances, been uni
form in every quarter of the glohe. The Span
iards in America, profiting by the internal dis
sections of Mexico, deposed its monarch and
founded an empire; in a condition somewhat
analogous, Pizzaru entered Peru, and met with
the like success; the Portuguese, under the guise
of friendship, introduced themselves into the
east, and established their power when intes
tine discord had relaxed the nerves of Hindu
stan. So have the Dutch and Punch, succes
sively, obtained footing in that devoted country;
but the English have reaped the most benefits
from the principle and given it the widest scope.
By clothing their spies in the sacred habiliments
6f ambassadors, the resources of the countries
have been ascertained, and dissentions sown
among the native princes, who usually embraced
the overtures,of England to dethrone their sup
positious rivals. When this was accomplished,
they found themselves alone, unsupported, at the
mercy of their victorious allies, and necessitated
to accede to any stipulation proposed.
In this manner, Britain has extended her con
quests from Cape Comorinlu the south, to the
Hirti 'iala mountains in thS north, and to the
tributaries of China in the east; but still her
thirst of dominion is insatiated, Her avaricious
breast sighs for the riches of China, and the pre
paratory measures for fulfilling her desires have
been taken. Knowing the weakness of the Chi
nese marine, the Malayan pirates have been
congregated at the Ladrcue islands, and let
loose upon the defenceless shores of southern
China; with the malcontents of which a good
understanding exists and arms and ammuni tion
supplied them. Tire coasting'trade thus iutev-
cepted, and a spirit of insurrection excited,
the emperor has been reduced to the necessity of
supplicating, it is said, the English to suppress
these marauders. This service, no doubt, will
be performed oniv on the condition of ceding a
permanent settlement in some part of his domi
nions, eligible for the furtherance of that pow
er’s private purposes; and, pressed as he is by
foreign and domestic enemies, no remedy is left
him b’ ‘ that of sacrificing the ancient and re
strict! e policy of his country tb the exigencies
of the rimes;
In he mean while embassy w ill follow embas
sy until no part of his territory will have
bee a left unexplored. Under the pretext of
converting his idolatrous subjects ? hosts of mis
sionaries w ill be irffmead over ins dominions,
between whom and the English establishment a
regular correspondence will, of course, be kept
up. His already rebellious vassals will bb ex
cited to persevferein their opposition,'and when
the fermentation becomes general, swarms of
English sepoys will he poured into his western
and southern provinces, and perhaps a descent
made by Europeuu troops at the head of the
Sea of Wang Jlci and marched upon Pekin.—
The consequences may easil y be foretold—the
total overthrow of the" Chinese empire, and the
subjection of the disciples of Confucius and the
worshippers of Po to the same rigorous bondage
in which the children of lirarno. are now
ing.

We are requested to state, that no Fifty Dollar Rills,
of the State Bailie, signed John C. Faber, have been is-
wied from that Bank, and that, consequently, all Bills of
that description must be counterfeits. It may also not
be amiss to mention, that all the old impression of Five
Dohars of that bank were called in, tlctober, 1815, and
•rrew emission of a different plate issued. The bank
used every diligence to detect the counterfeiters of
bills, and a reward of 500 dollars was paid’by them
» person in Augusta, Whose evidence convicted one of
V; Cul l’ m « at Watrenton, Georgia. The editors of the
gusta Herald will no doubt give publicity to this arti
cle for general information.—Coarier.

Since the sailing of those shtps from this port" for India
our government has levied a duty on goods generally
from India, equal to ninety per cent, which is regarded
equal to a prohibition for the future, and from which
those valuable cargoes are exempt, in consequence of the
ships havmg departed the United States previous to the
passage of the law.—PhiUuklphia Freeman’s Journal.

It is said that AVtixtam Ghat, the wealthy merchant
declines serving as a director of the Branch Bink of the
United State-sat Boston. The following remark, refer
ring, it is presumed, to the politicuLcharacter of that di
rection, is from the Boston Yankee, and is frequently ap-
tplu-d, in conversation, by eastern republicans, to oilier
appointments than those by the bank—how justly we sav
not:—5VV. Intel. ’ ' jo j
“We luve sometimes thought an opinion prevailed at
the southward, tint there was no republican party in Nev-
Enghnd; ami we have little.loubt that this opinion isen-
tertamed by the direc ors of the United Stales’ Bank, at
l ..tiadelph a. VV e could inform them there’certainlv is
such a party, and that it is not destitute of feeling; that
although long schooled in the principles of patience and
foi hta.iance, it knows where submission ceases to be tem-
perance, or eoal; ii.n a political duty. But more on this
subject anoUici ume.”
Shark h at Sire.njc.—I' ivi'l be seen hv an rj-ticle front
the 1 rhtidad Courant in otir columns to-dav, that the Bri
tish are preying upon each other, being, in .he course of
events, debarred from pirating upon their neighbors —
\n obsolete law iuis been revived, which gilts some of
ibein a legitimate right to -.e;ze and com er! to tlit-ir own
use, the property of others. We aie told hv a master of
a vessel arrived at this port, a fetv days since, from the
West ladies, that the officers o. government enter on
hoard British nicrcliantnieii, and demand to know the
number of British sailors in the crews, at the same time
time intimating their iny.-nti.in to impress them. The
masters of the vessels, fearful of this result if t e v tel!
the truth, represent :hc,rcrews to he composed mostly of
Foreigners. The confession, thus insidiously oh ained,
is made use of to procure the coiitiscuikm of the' vessels,
fra violation cf the navigation laws. “And so that

. From the Georgia JourniU, j recent jer 16.
Died, on Monday morning, after a short but severe
illness, colonel Gr.oitns G. Nowlax, senator from Kfiin- r -
ham county. He was an excellent member of the legis
lature, as well as a most respectable and worthy citizen.
From his exemplary life, and fervent piety in the moment
of dissolution, there is every reason to hope he has quit
this “vale of tears,” for a world ot unspeakable joy. As
soon as,his death was announced, both branches of the
general assembly adjourned, and met in the evening to
make arrangements for his interment. Yesterday, at nine
o’clock, tlie procession moved to the place of burial in
the following order, accompanied by the tolling of tne
bell; /
Military.
Clergv and Physicians'.
[CORPSE.]
Chief Mourners.
Members cf Senkte.
Governor and State Officers.
Members of the House of Representatives.
Citim-us.
On reaching the grave-yard, an appropriate discourse
was delivered by the reverend Myles G:ecne, and the
body committed, with military honors, to its kindred
dust. As a token of respect fur the deceased, the legis
lature . have unanimously resolved that each member
wear crape on the left arm the remainder <>f the session,
and for ten nays thereafter.

Doctor Brown, late president of T>anklin College will

a list selected suitably to that sum, from Mr. Harris’ cata

class, including the Latin and Greek languages, Mathe
matics, Philosophy, &c. twenty-four dollars per annum,
payable quarterly in advance, and no scholars will be
