GENERAL INTELLIGENCE C H I NA. ritounass or run iti:nat.LioN.—tts-csrrtutn or Astor, sun taxccuriolv or I000 or run naaa.i.e.- - HONG Kozvo, Nov. 27.—-The local news ofthis place is of the usual dull character, and is of trifling interest, but the intelligence which the present mail conveys to Europe is important in relation to the progress of the rebellion, which is fast breaking up the Chines Empire. , The health of Hong Kong is somewhat unfavourable, owing to the late bot sultry weather, and has been marked by increase to the sick list of the garrison. Civilians, too, have felt the effects of the high tempe- ratut-c. Of the garrison no less than ll3 are in hospital, and of this number 75 be- long to the 59th Regiment. Fever, bowel, and chest complaints have been and are still prevalent, and four deaths have taken place in the garrison since the middle ofthe month. About seventy invulids will shortly pg-oceed home, and the whole of the Ceylon ifle Regiment is in orders to’ return to Ceylon, leaving the military strength ofthe garrison very low. At Canton, and in its immediate vicinity, all was uite. The number of executions for political offences affords clear evidence that the Imperial authorities are anxious to strike terror into the minds of all classes of the population. From Shanghai advices have been re- ceived to the 19th instant. The belliger- ents keep up a desultory warfare with little or no effect, and the struggle is aided and prolonged by some injudicious foreigners, Wll0, for the profit attaching to the sale, do not hesitate to furnish the imperialists and the insurgents with arms und ammunition. But for the supplies so furnished it is pro- bable that both parties would quietly endea- vour euch to tire out and exhaust the pati- ence of the other, instead of which they are tempted to struggle for mastery without the probability of accomplishing anything. It would also appear that the imperialists, hav- ing heard that some guns were about to be removed from 21 foreign bong to the head- quarters of the rebels, endeavoured to pre- vent the coolies carrying the guns away; and it would also seem that these imperial-" ists had provided materials which induced the foreign community to believe that they designed to burn down their houses. The consequence was a eneral turn out ofall the foreign residents, aided by armed par- ties from the ships-of-war. With Mr. Wade, the British Vice-Counsel, at their head, the foreign residents drove the Imperialists from their setlcment, although not without exchanging shots, in which some six or seven of the Imperialists were wounded. On the following day Messrs. Wade and Meadows were sent by the British Consul with u. dcspntch to Keih, the judge, to de- mand an explanation; that functionary stut- ed that the imperial soldiers were under the general, and that strict orders had been given them not to enter the British limits. On the 18th November Keih informed the British consul that on their return to camp the imperialists had reported that they were driven back by rebels dressed up in foreign clothes. The British consul has issued a notification relative to the attack, in which he deplores the loss of life that ensued, and congratulates the foreign community that no worse mischief ensued. The consul en- _|0lIlS forbearance, and deprecotcs the fur- nishing of military supplies to the belliger- ents as subversive of the line of policy, strict neutrality, which the British government had intimated its intention to pursue. The ex-Taoutae has been exerting himself to re- takc the city, but failed, afler a most despe- rate attempt by sea and land. Early on, the morning of the 9th No- vember, the ex-Taoutac desputched spies through the city to report that he proposed to quit for Chin-Keang-Foo, and when his fleet got under weigh, the report was deemed well founded. The wily mandarin, after a little mantnuvring, suddenly sailed right for the city, and opened a brisk fire upon the insurgents’ batteries, which could not be returned from the latter without firing into the neutral fleet. Shortly after the insur- gents commenced a cannonade, doing much damage to the Taoutae’s fleet. The second division attacked the square-rigged vessels Glcnlyon and Snipe, belonging to the insur- gents, and obtained possession of them, not by boarding, but by throwing on board a shower of stink ots; the smoke and flames were such that t e crew were compelled to jump overboard, and endeavoured by swim- ming to reach the shore; the boats of the Teoutao attacked the poor wretche: in the water, and speered every one that appeared above water. The imperialists, assisted by several foreigners in the Taoutae’s fleet, made re peated attempts to capture the forts, but were bravely repulsed. Afler this, the imperialists’ boat: proceeded along the which destroyed about 1,500 house: and an immense amount of property belonging to the rich um-client: and shopkeepers iu_tlie I neighbourhood. The parties employed.in onsiited this work of wantoti destruction c of the west coast pit-atc:,,who pillaged the district before the _ set fire to the dwellings, and carried offs. rge amount of treasure, opium, provisions, &.c. Simultaneously with the naval attack an attempt was made to carry the city on the land side, where 3,000 imperialist: advanced for the purpose of taking the city by surprise. The sentinel: kept concealed until the advanced post, finding all quiet, boldly scaled the walls; as soon as the first three ascended the y-ampyarts their heads were instantly cut of, and immediately a brisk fire - was opened along the whole line, which forced a quick retreat. The imperialists i-_cturned'to their camp in confusion, with many of their num- bers killed and wounded. In the naval and land engagements it is estimated that 300 of the imperliasts lost their lives. From Auto the most melancholy accounts have been _received, involving an amount of blood- shed that is calculated to strike terror into the hardest heart, and with any other people than hinese would induce a reaction and a cry of vengeance on the author: of such fearful outrages as t ose now enacting at Amoy and it: neighbour- hood. The impcrialists have rctalren the place, and have marked their success by slaying in cold l’l°°d_ netrly L000 rsons, most of whom took no part in the late movement except on compulsion. Ihe streets and wharves of Amoy have literally streamed with human blood, not shed in any war- like operations, but done in savage revenge and to blind the authoritier at Pekin as to the braver of the enactors. A letter from Aiuoy, dated ov- ember 22. received but a few hours ago, state: that up to that period all was quiet, and matter: were much the same appearance, as far as foreig- ners were concerned, as under the insurgent rulers. Executions were of daily occurrence. The Mandarios. to mark their success, were revelling in human gore, putting to death all who fall into their hand: indiscriminately. The or- iginal mover ofthe rebellion had been given up to the Mandarins; the unfortunate wretch was ex- ecuted on the 17th November, together with his son, both bodies being quartard and their head: placed on the prinsipal city gates. The village: around Amoy were made to contribute to the monster executions. Whole villages were threat- ened with death. unless they gave up all who took part in or sympathised with the rebels, and as a consequence of this brutal demand the poor, weakt inoffensive, and dsfenceless villagers were surrendered up as victim: to setiate the mandar- ins‘ thirst for blood. rum these heart-rending and revolting scenes one gladly turns to notice the progress which the rest movement is making in the interior. We have very little certain information of the doing: of the Nanking insurgents; but one thing is clear, namely, that their cause is making headway, not- withstanding all the rerources of the emperor are directed to quell the wide spread of disalfectioa. It is generally believed that the emperor is bes- ieged in Pekin, and various rumours are current that the Tartar ruler has actually fled hie capital, but of this no certain information has been receiv- ed. On the subject of the present poeitiop and China is of opinion that the Tartar dynasty is now at its last gasp; and that the next Chinese year will not onwarrantsbly he called as the reign of Hungtsen-teicuen, the Prince of Peace. AU 8 TEAL I A . We have further news from Melbourne to the 13th October. These accounts are even more satisfactory than the preceding. The value of the gold shipped from Victoria up to the last date was £7,152,615. The River Murray had been ex lored across South Australia, Victoria, an Mew South Wales to the extent of 1800 miles, and its navigable capacity had been ascertained to such a satisfactory extent as to leave no doubt that hereafter this noble stream will become as important as the Ganges, the Mississippi, the St. Lawrence, or the Dan- ube. Every class wes pros rous, price: of labour still rising, land eagerly bought up at high rates,land great numbers return- ing to Europe with ample realised fortunes. Everything indicates the highest state of prosperity. 1 ND! A. The India Mail has arrived with date: from Bombs to the 14th December, and from I-Ion orig to the 21th November.
