Tt.e London Timet -oi the 11th Inst. has. what Hcnlls a plttnce at the tumor; of British rela tions with the Chinese Eawire during the last 30 yeats. The article proceeds :-But, indeed, it is to eoni'thing beyond leniency that the present Govtronent ib indebted. When we crushed the TaepiDg malcontents, we literally dellve'ei it Irom the Jaws f iuid. And ho bai it repaid tbe services rendered? lias effect been given to a single clause ot tbe treaty that could be wrig gled outotT Has a staple caa:e of complaint been redres-edf The despatches of our repre sentatives, past and pre.-eot, tell the same tale. Verily it would seem as if the Chinese diploma tists wete toasters of tbe situation. They laugh to scorn our treaty. They indict upon us a severe disaer. They then jockey us Into quelling .native rebellion. Tbey again laugh our treaty to scorn, ana, coony ignoring; their indebtedness, contemptuously Rive us the Cgo-toy as principal and leading power in tbeir foreign relations. Tbey send a mission with tbe avowed object of reuderiug as far nuga tory as 'may be. possible the right ot access to the interior, acquiescence iu wh'ch they feel they can no longer evade, aud which, though forming tbe leading provision of tbe treaty of Tieu tain, has tor some reason or other been left pructi-cally-a dead letter for eight yean. Tbe Chinese Government feels too weak at the moment to reslat as in days gone by; it resorts therefore to artince and cafulery. If we can for the time being be kept out of the couutry with our con sent, aud can be baply coaxed into waiving the right, as in the case of access to the city of Canton, it nurses the hope that with time may come strength, its intent being stealthily to turn tbe interval to accouut lu poisoning the minds of tbe people far and wide against up, so that if, and wben, we do attempt to avail ourselves of tbe surrendered privilege, we may meet a population arrayed in fanatic hos tility. ' It designs to repeat on a larger scale the policy prosecuted to successfully for nigh twenty j-ears at Canton. Aud it we do not take care, there Is .little doubt of Its aucces, in which event the conflict will not be with tbe Govern ment, as heretofore, but with the people as well as Government. The Chinese rulers are actu ated by tbe mistaken vie wa which bound their very narrow horizen. They are our adversaries lrom ignorance and fear, aud such they will continue so long as we fail to furnish them with tbe experience needed for tbeir enlightenment and conviction. Progress is our nece-sary ally; she alone can provide the needed experience by which the statesmen of Ch nn are to be moved onward. And hence a policy of negation on our side is totally inadmissible. The duty of guidance devolves upon us; it Is utterly unsafe to leave our relations to be gu'.ded by them, as lias of late been tbe case. Tbe people, on tbe other baud, are animated by a tottily different disposition from that ot their rulers. They have uniformly evinced the greatest friendliness to wards foreigners and where a different temper has manifested itself it has been traceable to offi cial prompting. Sufficient prominence cannot be given to this important truth, xoe people are eager for intercourse, and no reason exists, so far as they are concerned, why China should not be thrown open ta-morrow to unresliicted intercourse. Tbe permission proclaimed would be hailed by them with dellgbi, We hive now to recover the mound lost. We can effect this by simply telling the Chinese Ministers that if tbey wish for war we desire peace: that we per ceive plainly the drift of their present diplo macy to forestall our attempts to form a friendly acquaintance with their subjects; that we mean to have our treaty carried into effect without furl ter delay, and that consequently we shall decline to t-ien any clause or clauses calculated to convey the notion that that determination has been relinquished. If we thus act now, the Chinese Government, being too weak to show its teetb, will acquiesce, and there will be peace. If we do not, and we allow it time to a i"uaie tbe people, our intercourse will grow, lor grow it must, amid contests that mus; lead to conquest, since all means of persuasion and coercion short of that will have been exhausted. ' not dream of a consult rabid extension of iir frontiers, and it the treason of Austria, in 1W6, bad not deprived us of a portion of Bessa rabia, which is of no use to Roumanla, and which is essential to Russia for ensuring ber southwestern frontier, we could regard our western boundaries as deHnitlvely fixed. But all the Ureal Powers (with the exception of Eng land, wbo bas usurncd in Eorooe an iunuenee much greater than Hongs to her of right), are araentiy desiring to extend their limits; eoue on account ot the lnsufttc'eut liontier assigned to them by various trer.ties, others by reason of tbeir ambition and their desire to recover the innuence they have lost. When the day comes for tbe Turkish Empire to fall, Western Eurono will be satisfied if. in thennrtitlnn tilth Turkish succession, Kussia shall coutent herself win tne leu Dank ot the Danube aud the with arawai ot the onerous conditions imposed upon ner in i860.

Admiral Farrago in tbe Bosphorns, The London Morning Foat says the Franklin, Uited States frUate, left tbe Bosphorus on Saturday, August 20, for the Mediterranean, but before going was the scene of an incident Wbicb, through do fault of Admiral Farragut or bis officers, has slightly marred the pleasant memory of her visit. On Thursday a deputation of enthusiastic Greeks, headed by Mr. Samart eidi, tbe editor of the Ktaipohoa, went off to tha frigate to present an address, more liellenico, to the Admiral. Before the officer on duty could announce their presence at the bottom of the? f augway, some of the party commenced flinging copies of the address (in English and Greek) tbiough the ports and up on the deck among the crew. At tbe same time, a parcel contain ing live hundred copies of the document was cent aft to the Admiral's cabin. It contained, ot course, an enthusiastic appeal for sympathy with the Cretan movement, which was described as a war agalDst "grievious oppression," and, in conclusion, expressed a hope that tbe Uulted States would assist in liberating "thisjiilstorical country" (Turkey in Europe) from, etc. Mr. Morris, the American Minister, happened to be with tbe Admiral at the time, and, it is said, at once lemarked to him that whatever might be bis private feelings in the matter, he could not receive such an address without in decency toward the Sultau, by whose hospi tality his ship was then anchored in the Bos phorus. The Admiral felt the force of this suggestion, and at once ordered all the copies of the address which had b-aen thrown on board to be collected aud returned to the deputation, wblch was all this time below in iu boats awaiting permission to ascend the ship's side. lie also sent word to the party that he could only receive it j mem hers as private individuals, and not as a politi cal committee of any kind. I bey were then admitted and presented to the Admiral, who received the whole very courteously, but with out any political remark whatever being made After a brief inspection of tbe ship the party left, apparently much gratified with their visit. News ot what had passed, however, appears to have reacbed the Minister of Police, for on Saturday evening Mr. Bamartzldl and two other members of tbe deputation were arrested and conveyed to Btamboul. Tbe legality of this proceeding was more than doubtful, as not only veie tbe parties Hellenic subjects, but their offeree, it any, was committed under the Ameri can flag. They were still kept Iu. durance, not withstanding tbe protes. of tbe Greek Legation; but their immediate release was expected. aWm..i GENERAL NEW8. Russian Frontier Ex tension.

Now to the fao's of last night, whih show that behind all this foolish stuff was a really malignant design. Last evening, Lieutenant Bjnner, who is a merchant doing business in New Yotk, but residing in Kearney, on the east side of the river, opposite Belleville, was waylaid as be was leaving Mr. Little's house, where he bad been passing the evening, and knocked down with a slung-shot by an enemy whom he only raw for an Instant. Ue fell insensible, and was probably left for dead. After about halt an hour of unconsciousness, he revived, and badly stunned and covered with mud, walked back and aroused Mr. Little, who had retired. He was without his hat and cane, and seemed some what bewildered, but said be had been as saulted. Mr. Little took his lantern and gun, and went down the carriage road, where he found the hat and cane. Returning, wben within two hundred feet of his house, he saw an object on the ground, which proved to be a pistol. The pistol is a Frank Wesson, two barrel revolver, new and bright, and loaded. On the silver-mounting of one side it is marked "K. K. K." On the reverse are scratched a dagger and bullet. On one side of the butt it Is marked "A. J." or perhaps "Q. J.," the mark being indistinct. Ou the other is engraved. "Death to Yankees." ' The latent development was the finding in the vicinity of the outrage? by a lad, at au party hour this morning, the following Ku-Klux Klau order, or message:- Mettle- t1"0-1 lleet at old rendeivoos to-night Bring yonr re galiaanaM.

This shows that tbe killing of Lieutenant Byuner was inteuded, and ttist it failed only by the blunder or cowai dice of his assailant. The burning of Mr. Little's barn was doubtless de feated by ht being about with a gun' and lantern alter the alarm. Our authority Is so ample that we are compelled to vouch for the existence of this Incredibly shameful state of aifaire. NOB TIT CAROLINA. Address ot H. A.

The old gas-pipes and "carrier tube" were removed, and the new pipes aud electric burners put in their places, and so arranged as to throw the light more direct upon the floor of the House and galleries. The result Is that twenty per cent, more light is produced. The magnetic engine and indicator are beautiful in struments, the operator having perfect control of the apparatus, independent of the dome and rotunda. For this purpose there is a cable laid from the battery to the House ; as soon as the gas flows to the burners they arc Instantaneously lighted, thus preventing an escape of gas into The Treasury Department.

Wilkes' Spirit of last week remarks: We are constantly in rec.eiot ni let tern fr.-im all parts of tho country asking our opinion of the general result of tbe November election, and of the election prospects in the several Suites. Many ot these letters propose to bet, aud most of them wish to know how the betting stands, not only on the main issue, butnpou the leading features ot the cnuvass in the larger Slates. To all these we make the general answer, that betting on the general result has almost ceasnn since tbe Vermont election, from the unwilling ness of any of the leading Democrats to bet at any ratej whatever. Occasionally, however, heated discussions entrap the unwary Sey mourites into expressions which they feel bound to support, and then a bet ensues, in which the Democrat usuallvrenuires three to twn and sometimes two to one. The average, how ever, on the ccneral issue. Is abontSlunn n.?nint $G00 In favor of Grant; and, as we said before, there are very few takers at that. Tnls gives a fair indication ot public opinion, and particu larly of the opinion of those Democratic organs which, while they proclaim ffevmour and Blair's success as certain, will not Dut ud a cent. ThU is an argument which tbe rank and hie of the Democracy can understand, and they mark it as an evidence that that tbeir leaders have given the thing up. The small office-seekers amoog them, therefore, are beginning to look for snug places in another Quarter, and it will hn a trreat Democratic stampede for shade and shelter. We will take this ODDortuuitv to sav. that ner. sons desiring to invest on Seymour may still got several thousand dollars covered at this Office. This Offer bas stood in our r.olnmni far several weeks, but, we are sorry to say, without an j response, except iu tne way ot moral nrotest against tbe crime of betting from such'exem plary Christians as the per nmed literati of the woria. They do not like it. evidently. Tim argument is too direct and conclusive tor them, and they consenuentlv meet it with enit hot. nn? deprecation. The condition or tne betting In regard to this State is rapidly becoming even; andou Oris wold against uonman it is already even. Considera ble money bas been invested at thi rata Huh, the lust three davs. It la our nnininn that H.. mour and Hoffman will both be badly beaten in the State. In Maine a laree Rennhlican fncra i. looked for. Betting has been made at $500 against $1000 that it will go Republican by 20 000.
