HAMKBK TRHATlf WITH TUB ITNlThD STATR3. Bangkok, Slum, November 13, 18C5. The time is appivaclilus for the revision ol" tbo trpa'y niado in lS5(i, bet wron the Unitrd States and Iho "mugiiilicent" Kina ot Siiim. It Is a matler that, grratlv concerns the merchant, mau'iftuirr, the mechaaic and shipowners of the UniUtl Btnteu, as I shall endeavor to tshowln this ruier. The people of our country have never appre ciated this country ns one of the prcat rice pro ducing field of the world, and a country that U dependent upon foreign nations tor its luxuries and necessaries. Mot ol these latter eanbehii'j from the United States. The United Slates m'.uht have had itio monopoly of the supply of the machinery it the management of our interests here had laLtcn into proper hands, li'it, iinfortiiDntcly, Iroin mis man iifro men t we ijavo been ounted bv Kuropi'an competition. The fault bus been ourown. Tins article furnished wfw biirh, and not of that chaiacter to insure continuance of confidence. This country is new, and just befriniiinK to develop its resources. i . WHAT IS REFUBKD. Hut to come back to the treaty revi-ion. The person or persons should be moii ot kinwn and jwltnowledfted character at borne. No people appreciate it mor than the Siamese, as was evinced on the reception ot the .Prussian Embassy, beaded by Count Rulenberg. He Mas received with every distinction, and soon grunted the objects of his mission. The importunco of this matter should not he overlooked if we wish to compete with other commercial nations. The persons should be men not only ol hicrh standing, but of enlarged and liberal minds, ready to negotiate with liberal spirit, with a lull knowledse of the wants of this country and its capacity in productiveness. The United States does not want exclusive piivih ges, but to have its commercial intercourse put on a liberal and equal footing with others. It that were done many ol the present nbstacles that fetter enter prise might be removed. XNCBEABINO PROSPERITY OF THE COUNTRY. Prom theso statistics it will be seen that the exports have increased in a wonderful ratio. Kice sold here at the time the treaty was made at sixty cents per picul, and increased in price tili it reached say, on the average, one dollar and eighty cents. In the year 1SG5, tor &ix months ihc exportation of rice wa prohibited by the Government on account of the failure of the crop. The blessing of throwing open the country to ioreign trade is obvious to every one. The people have more money, and, of course, are able to purchase foreign luxuries and nccea earies. These facts are exhibited In their dwelling and their dress. New articles of trade have been opened up. Salt was formerly, like everythini else, prohibited, except at the pleasure of the King. In 18M4 the export reached 170,048 piculs, mostly ior the Java market. Cotton has in creasedmostly owiiig to the Rebellion in the United States Irom a few hundred piculs to 30,000 piculs. Fish are now exported to a very considerable amount: last year it reached 2W,0U0 niculs. They go to Java and China. This trade has sprung up within the last five years. The lish somewhat resemble herrings. SIAMESE IMPORTS. Imports into Siam during thu year 1804. . .85 604 047 .Imports inio Siam during; the year 186'J. ... 2,81'J,25 Increase S2.735 023 The nhnvo facts will k uciruo-tlvu to the ship uwners and merchants. In I8U.1 9team was hist introduced by the King building a small steamer named the hoyal Seal, iitte.cn horse power. The Siamese have now thirty-one steamers. The lioyal Sovereign, yacht, side-wheel, one hundred horse power, two hundred aud twelve feet long, foity ieet beam, steams fourteen knots. Some of these steamers have American machinery; they also have English and French machinery. There is now in Bangkok three steam rice-milk one of which is an America", null. Lately thty have erected a costly sugar mill a short distance flora Bangkok. 1 believe if these facts are piesetited to the people of the United States the subject will at once engage their attention. Few of the cools are imp i ted from the manufacturer, but "from Hong Hong and Singapore. i The whole customs for imports are, farmed out lor $ae,0U0 per annum; and as the ttite is three per cent ad valorem, the whole amount on im ports is only about $16,000. This tax is too little, and ought to bo raised, so as to enable the Gov ernment to relieve the goods themselves from internal duties in ether Bhapcs. Rice pays an export duty of $2-40 on twenty piculs. INDIA. Commotion lu AllVban aail Along' the PuDjnnb Iron tier Anticipated 1'anil ne In Kendal-111- Overland Telegraph to India, Etc. Details of Bombay news to the 13th of Decem ber say that many reports were current of com motion in the All'gnan States and along the Puniaub lroutkr. There was no apprehension, however, ol any dlsturoance. Some doubts were Kit respecting the stability ot the Eootuh treaty of peace. There were tears 'of a lamme in Bengal. A convention between England and Turkey relative to the overland telegraph to India had been signed at Constantinople, and sent to En" Jand lor raiitlcation. " CIIIXA. THE rNGI.IRII STItlVlSU after' a railway from CANTON TO FATSUAJI DRAWING A CORDON ROUND PEKIN. From the Singapore Straits Times, Kovtmber 22. From the North of China we have nothing to recoid ot the slightest importance. From I'ekin there is absolutely no news. Sir Rutherford Alcock Is on his way to Taku in her Majesty's steamship Marroso, and will, we doubt not. push on at once lor the capital, we hope unopposed. No sisns ot any intention on the part of the Chinese Government to keep him t a distance Irom the seat of government, have as yet, been nianilesfed. J On his way through Hong-Kong and fcuaughae his Jixcelkney's attention was li ,m t0n fmt!. Yer ,:mPlaiit questions, ttiDHy of immediately on his arrival of try ing the temper of the Imperial Cabinet. Duiiii'' two days 01 his sojourn in tbU citv a deputation trnra the Local Committee of the China Railroad Compauy wai-ed on him to lav beuw hia Ex. cellency a statement ol what they had alreadv done towards the attainment of the immediate object in v.ew. ihe obtaining of the sanction of the Chiueso authoiitu s for the construction of a line ot railway from Cautou to Fatshau. and of the necessary powers as to purclwo of land, etc. Repulsed m these r attempts to inrlueuce the Viceroy ot the kwang Tung imd Kwangsi provinces in thdr favor, au , instructed by Mr. honertsou: that nothing could be done wdhuut the immediate authority of tho Emperor, they platted themselves in his Excellency's hand', and besought him in the interest of commerce and of civilization 'to lend them the aid ot his undoubted influence per sonal and official, with the Cabinet of Fekin Sir liutberiord promised, but held out very slender hopes of any early success. He depre cated the telcct ion that had been made of an 'xperimentMl line, and suggested out somewhat nearer to the capital. THE DAILY EVKNING JAPAN.

An Interesting Document. JOHN M. BOTT8 "REASONS." The Richmond lirpublio says: "The docu ment below, in the hand-writing of John M. Botts, was sent us some time since by a gentle man in the country, to whom Mr. Uotts had given it: "Reasons, as Iheij passed through my mind on the night o1 the tfUi Artl, lhU2, as I lay after eight weeks, solitary cojfnvmerd in a itcqro jait, as the causes of my cwiftnemcnl: '1. llccau.-e I would not aid in breaking up tho Union formed by Washington and his com peers, which, from infancy, I had been taught to venerate and adore as ihe only sheet anchor ol national greatness, prosperity, and freedom. "2. liecause I w ould not a.d in the destruction of the best Government the world has ever looked upon. ' Because I would not aid in bring civil war. defola'iou, and iaiuiuc upon my own section of the country. "4. Because I wouid not aid in the dismember ment, impoverishment, nnd ruin of my native Mate, and desolation of tho whole South. "C. Because 1 would not aid in the siauchter of the hundreds of thousands that have been and will be sacrificed. "C. Because 1 would not aid in breaking up the social lies, and lite-long personal and family intimacies that lor generations have existed. "7. Because I would not aid m making widows and orphans unnumbered and untold. "8. Because I would not aid in turning tho instincts oi humun.ty into that of wolves and other biutes. "0. Because 1 would not practise a low decep tion and an unworthy trick, as thousands have done, Irom motives of seliishness, ambition, or iear. "10. Because I would not adopt for myself, or recommend for oiJor, a policy by which ihe tiuiis ol a country's labor murt. be thrown away. "11. Because 1 had the firmness to adhere w ith fideli'y to the principles I had cherished and labored for thirty years to establish, and which my State had just adopted at the polls: but which she renounced and repudiated at the dictation of a daring and corrupt Democracy. "12 Because I prefened living under a per manent and enduring Government to one that was constructed on the principles of a bomb shell, containing the elements of destruction within itself, that sooner or later must explode and leave a wreck behind. "13. Because I preferred a Government that w ould protect its citizens and th.eir property to one that would oppress and rob them. "14. Because I prelcrred national civil liberty, under a constitutional form of government, to a hateful military despotism. "15. Because I wot ld not sacrifice tho best interests of the people to perpetuate the power of Democrucv undtr a Southern Confederacy, when they had lost it under the National Gov ernment. "1(1. Because I cared more for the Interests and lreedom of the people than I did lor their cai esses, und tried to take becter cure ol them than they did themselves. "17. Because I would not become a Rebel and a traitor to my country, w hen it had done no hoim to moor my State. "18. Because I was honest, in earnest, and patriotic when I voted for 'the Union, the Con stitution, and the eniorcemtnt ol the laws,' and will not now stultify mjeell by repudiating all. "19, and lastly. Because I waa not born cither a fool or a knave." Letter trom Mrs. Cobden. The Boston Adccrtiser says: "We printed some time ago a letter from Charles Sumner to Jlrs. Cobden, conveying the resolutions of re spect to the memory of her husband, adopted by the lat Massachusetts State Convention. The following is Mrs. Cobden's reply :' "Duni ord, Miuhurst, December 27, 1SC.". My dear Mr. Sumner: On behalf of mvself and my children, I beg mot-t kindly to thank vou, anil the members ol the Republican State'Conven tion of Massachusetts, for the resolutions passed by them, of sympathy with us in our terrible bereavement. "These resolutions are rendered more valuable by the letter from yourself which accompanies them. ( Tho expressions of sympathy and condolence which have reachet' me irom public bodies and private individuals, in your and other countries, have bee n deeply rrateful to my stricken heart, tor they assure me ol the widepread apprecia tion of the efforts of my beloved husband to promote the cut'se of international prosperity and peace. "From America they are especially gratelul, for his sympathy with the cnu-e of liberty to the slave was undoubted and intense. Anil it was on his way to Purliameid to speak on the Cana dian question in its relations to the American Union that be contracted the illuet which ended his dear and noble lite. Tray accept the kindest remembrances of myself and children, and bclievo me to remain, my dear Mr. Sumner, yours very sincerely, A. I'OUDEN." Tbe Massachusetts Cotton Mills.
