All The Americans Safe—Surviving Foreigners Exhausted and Fearful of Treachery. (Sezorat ro Tae Examiver.] Lonpow, Aug, 4.—According to a spe- cial despatch frora Bhanghai, August 3, the advancing column of the allies was reported here (yesterday) to have reached @ point 35 miles beyond Tien Tein. Nothing from any other point corrober- ates this statement. In fact The Standard goes so far as to say that it fears that the real advance, apart from the preliminary meaeures, has not yet begun. Tien Tsin despatches, dated July 30th, tell of an action which is termed a recon- noissance between the Japanese and Chinese, two miles beyond Haiku Arsenal in which the Japanese withdrew after suffering thirty casualties. The Tein Tsin correspondent of the Standard,under date of July 27\b, declares that the Americans and Germans have been ordered to move forward without waiting for the British. A Cheft pidespatch, August 1, announces the safety of all the Americans in Pekin, and the reception of a letter from Dr. Ch’ltman, dated Pekin, July 20, saying that on the previous day, Sir Claude Mac- donald had agreed to a truce, providing Chinese come no closer,and adding “ we bope this means relief, but having de. feated the Chinese we are fearful now o° treachery. All are exhausted with the constant waiting, fighting and digging of trenches.” AMNESTY TO BOXERS, Shascuar, August 4.—Li Hung Chang is preparing a proclamation granting a virtual amnesty to the Boxors on condi- tion that they cease creating disturbances. ey — STORM IN BRITAIN.

Weare requested to give publicity to the following card of thanks : In connection with the recent visit of the warship to. this port, the members of the Phoenix Cricket Club generally. and its Mxecutive in particular, desire to give public expression to their apprecia- tion of the uniform courtesy, self-denial and epirit of hospitality of those employers and fellow-employees who by their ready co-operation despite the incocvenience or loss of time and money entailed enabled the local players to entertain the visitors on the cricket field on three week day in succession. The spirit in which the cricketers were met on that occasion by all directly or indirectly affected by their absence from their usual avocations alone made it possible to have these cricket matches on these consecutive business days—and one of them a market day - This is most commendable and is very highly appreciated by those who while doing what they can to enter- tain visitors io our shores are glad to avail themselves of these foreign matches to ex- tend and intensify the interest in the na. tional game in thia province.
