—The French Government have given China an ultimatium. They reject the Chinese suzerainy of Anam, with the
alteration of war, and demand an im- mediate answer. They declare that should Chinese soldiers be found in
Anam they will be shot as bandits by the French, and should China make a movement of troops or ships to Anam it will be regarded as an act of war. They insist that China shall make an in- stant and absolute withdrawal of her pre tensions, proposing to deal with Anam as an independent power, and intimate that France may demand of China the expenses of the expedition because Chinese action has rendered the expedi- tien necessary. China oc her part ex- hibits no sign of fear ; and has been rather ingeniously bidding for the sup- port of the other powers of Europe. Her ambassador say that should Frauce

The King’s second son, placed himself under the protection of the Bishop of Adraa, a French Fransiscan Missionary, at that stationed in the country——and sought the assistance of Louis XVI. The latter sent over some French officers who organized an army and enabled him to reinstate himself in all his dominions. It this way that the French obtained a hold upon the country.

“We cannot afford to let our friends vv. the Island give the Exhibition the cold shoulder, no more than we can per— mitthem, through a misapprehension of the facts, to believe that St. John is act- ing in a parsimonious manner in ap- portioning the prizes. The prize list has already been amended in its most objectionable features, and though some objection is still taken to the classifi- cation of live stock, we believe that this, too, will be amended. wherever it can be shown to be likely to work injustice.”

Resolutions of Condolences,
At a meeting of the Benevolent Irish Society, held on the i5th inst., the follow- ing resolutions were passed:
Whereas, 1t has pleased Almighty Ged to remove froaamengst us the Honorable Francis Loegworth, for many years a useful and
worthy member of this Society;
Be it therefore res ilved, That, with meek submission to the orderings of an All-wise Providence, we desire to place upon record our appreciation of the many and valuable services rendered by him during a long and active life. Not only in mercant.le business did he contribute largely to the welfare of the people, but also in the high official posi- tions which he held were his labors alike ac- ceptable to his crown and country. A mem- ber of a family that was instrumental in laying the foundation of our Society, he en joyed the esteem and respect of all classes, and of the Irish community in an especial manner.
Be it further resolved, That we tender to his widow and family our sincere sympathy in their bereavement,
