According to a letter from Constantinople, this female, whose name is Sersafras Hanum, was for some time in the harem ot the Sultan, and was one of his favourites. ‘*One day,’ says the Ivtter, ‘‘ she called for her carriage, ind, accompanied by two female slaves and a male attendant, went to Ortakie. ‘There she stopped at a house which she indicated, and was received by two females with marks of the most profound respect. She entered the house followed by the twoslaves, while the other remained at thedoor. She was ‘thatroduced into a sumptuously furnished drawing-room, and there she dismissed the two slaves, who went with the domestics of the house to an ap rtment, where they wero entertained with cakes, cigarettes, and coffee. Two of -the domestics qaitted the room from time to time as if to see that nothing was wanted in the drawing-room. and after a while they al] loft.. The two female slaves continued to amuse themselves with their coffee and cigarettes. At last, getting surprised at not secing any of tho servants retura, they went out in their turn, and finding all quiet they advanced on tiptoe to the drawing-room. Hearing no noise they entered, and to their astonishment found that their mistress had disappeared. The called out but received no answer—the house seemed Aertel. They then commenced a search in the different rooms, and presently found in a boudoir their mistress’s dress. They were thunderstruck, as it was evident that she had fled! They then uttered loud cries; and the mate attendant entered. Hearing what had Happened, he searched the house throughout, but was unable to discover the fair favourite. Hastening back to the harem, he told the black aga of her disappearance. That functionary in his turn went and searched the house with oan minuteness, but could not find any trace of the Circassian,

ut after a while le perceived that the house opened on the port. An investigation haying been institated, it was ascer- tained that several persons dressed in European style had been seen in a eacique near the house, and had suddenly left it. It turned out that a handsome Italian, named Guatelli, director of the music at Court, tad disappeared. The kiosque of the fugitive was examined—the gold, silver, jewellery, and sump- tuous presents of all kinds which the Sultan had made her had been carried off. The beautiful Sersafras, it 1s said, possesses « splendid yoiee, which the Sultan admired greatly ; and, as she has gone away with an Italian maeséro, it is not improbable that she may sume day appear in the theatres of Western Europe.”’

THE AFFAIR PEMMO.

The following is an extract from a letter dated Foochow, August 6:— The Peibo affair is likelyto be a far more serious one than has ever yet occupied the attention of England in her relations with China—the mere fact of the opposition - at Peiho being founded upon a direct order from Pekin, and the Emperor will make it sv. Hitherto our quarrels have originated with some mandarin or other official, against whom we havé first taken aneasures, and then demanded reparation from the Government ; but in this instance it is the act of the Government itself, and it is the strongly expressed opinion here that the Chinese should be made to know and feel thatg - ratified treaty cannot be broken with impunity. The Chinese Government also seem’ to compréhend this, as they are pro. ceeding in the matter with energy, and calling apon the pa- triotic spirit of the natives, who, to do them justice, seem to * respond 1o itnobly. Thus the Governor of Hopeh has sent 29- brass guns and 80 iron ones for the defence of the Peiho. The Salt Commissioner has given 8,000 taels of silver. (about £2, 500 sterling), and many other nobles have given 4,000 : (about £1,750 sterling), towards the fund. The subscription raised in Foochow is now leaving for the north with 25,000," 000 strings of cash, and thousands of dollars; so we may ex- pect that the Government is about to» put forth its whole strength. At present we are quite safe in Foochew, and ai” the first appearance of danger shall move down to Nantai.

The policy of China is certainly peculiar, which makes war with the allies in one place, and yet continues trading with’ them in others.”’

It is stated that Lieutenant Clutterbuck fell while leadi on his men to the assault. This was not the ease. He rocoivdl his death wound while assisting a wounded man to the boate late in the evening. He said to a friend when hit, I am dying, but Iam thankful that the last action I did in my life was a kind one.’? He died the same night in his own cabin,, having lived some few hours after he received his wound.

EXCITEMENT AMONG THE BRITISH AT CANTON.

Canton, Aug —We are very anx.ous up here about the dis- position of the Chinese, and are watching closely for any signs ‘bat may portend a coming storm. No small consternation was got up among the terrorists the other day on account of a great nose of ho-ns, drums, fifes, and all manner of music, heard all might long in the country between ibe city and the White Clouds. ‘The dismal nawe made by these unharmonious instrumenis wes every now and then drowned in the noiee of gingail-siits.

JAPAN.

ATTEMPT OF THE GOVERNMENT ‘TO EVADE THE TREATY,

In Japan effairs have assumed a very unsatisfactory position. Oa the Ifth of July the treaty was duly ratified, but since then the Japanese Government have attempted to evade it by seeking to confine foreigners to a small island about 10 wiles from Yeddo, ind to establish the same sort of surveillanee over them as they tormerly exercised at the Duteh settlement of Deciina. They hive further sought toestablish a new coin as the only one te be used in commercial dealings with foreigners, but at the same time forbidding tts currency among the natives, so that all yayments in the new com would have to be exchanged at wie Government treasury fur the old iizabon; and the relative values fixed by the Government produced a depreciation of @ per cent. on foreign coins, which, according to treaty, are to be received at their intrinsic value:s metal. Mr. Alcuck. the British’ Consul-General, has iseued a protest, and has stoppec the trade for the preseat. It is to be hoped that the calm, but fru attitude he has assumed, wil! have the desired effect.
