LATEST NEWS. FROM CHINA. Macao, January 29, 1857.—A1l foreign jusines is not only suspended, hut entirely j it an end, both here, at Hong Kong and at "anion- Since my last letter, the greater jart of the Western suburbs of the latter ity, in which were situated nearly all the warehouses, shops, &c., concerned in the 'oreign trade, have been consumed. Of ilie total destruction of the foreign factories you will have heard bv my last letter. The Chinese compute their losses in hous es, godowns, shops, <tc., at over 4,000 J buildings—up to the present time; and in j Merchandise, and the value of the above property, they state their losses at 10,000,- j )00 of dollars, which is not probably far , rom the truth. We cannot of course know very accu rately the damage sustained by the city of j Canton, since the bombardment com men- | Jed, 28th October last; but as the latter lad been kept up with more or less perti- j lacity, to within a few days ago, when he English admiral retired with his for tes from before the city, it is fair to snp lose that the Chinese do not over estimate he loss in life when they state it at 70,- : 100, of all ages and sexes. Everything! avors this calculation, as it is well known ; hat the streets are exceeding narrow, the ! lobulation of great density, the means or j he power to move, within the reach of lomparatively few; while the custom ol i [losing the gates of every street, during a leriod of public danger, creates immense : oss of life, by any sudden movement of lie populace. To say nothing of other distresses which tiave been riveted upon them and which ire inseparable from such a condition of hings, the total destruction of the trade of [be place, the interruption to all tlte a voca tions of the people. fcc., are very oppre<- iive in their effects. Sufi. up to the pres ent moment, the Chinese do not make the concession. The Viceroy, Yeh. : in all his official documents, is as firm at ibis moment, as he was when the "Arrow" j lorcha was seized bv his officers o:i the Bih j Dctober last. The people too are even I more hitter and exasperated against the j English, and perhaps all foreigners—and notwithstanding their distresses and tiieir , sufferings, their opposition to everything i which bears the appearance of reconcilta- j liuu or terms of any kind, is greater than j * •vcr. * COX X KCTICIT.

Letter from Philadelphia* PHILADELPHIA, April 13. j Joy and sorrow sometimes shift places when we least expect them, with appalling suddenness. While we yet gaze into the eyes of youth, they fix with a stony glare, and the ; flush of love is still warm upon the cheek be -1 neath which the pulse of life has ceased to I beat. The festal laugh dies away into the sob and wail of desolation—the bridal cham , ber is liuug with sables, and where the vernal dawn of hope was, the gloomy night of death is. The daughter of one of our most respec table residents was to have been married on the Bth inst. Iler bridal attire was prepared, and preparations made for the joyful event ; but the week before she suddenly fell ill, died on Sunday, and was buried on the day should have witnessed the solemnization of her nuptials. By her request, her marriage garment formed her shroud. Stealing the livery of Heaven to serve the devil in, will hardly adequately describe such sacrilegious villainy as is now committed among us. At the Central Methodist Episco pal Church there is at present a great "revi val" of religion in progress. The church is | thronged every night, and large numbers of j penitents throng the "altar." This state of things, instead of inspiring respect, appears to excite the cupidity of thieves. A number of ladies who, while engaging in these exercises, were unsuspecting of harm, have lost consid erable sums of money through the officious ness of pickpockets. Yesterday a woman named Sarah Hale, who came forward the night previous to the anxious seat to "get re ligion," was arrested on the charge of having picked the pocket o£ a lady who sat next to her on the occasion. The filched porte mun naie coutained S2O and a finger ring. A part of the money, together wilh tho ring, was re covered. There has been a great revival among the ; Methodist churches in this city during the past winter, and tiie various churches sum up their gains in membership and communicants ■ as follows: St. George's 47, Trinity 90,' Green street 74, Fifth street 75, St. John's 60, Kensington 44, Hancock street 16, Sanctuary 91, New Market street 02, Twelfth street 55, lledding 52, Tabernacle 21, Cohoeksink 20, Emory 100, Summerfield 17, Port Richmond 20, Rising Sun 10, Calvary 19, Union 14, 1 Nazareth 42, Kbenezer 43, Salem 150, Sr. Paul's 28, Mariners' Jiethcl 159, Western j Church 12. Broad street 43, Pitman 15, Cen tral 220, Young Men's Mission 15, Eleventh street 35, Asbury 11, Thirty-eigth street 38— total, 1,709. A woman named Susan Olwell, residing at No. 2 Laurel street, was accidentally shot on the night of the 9th inst, by the discharge of j a pistol which fell from a mantel piece in one *f the rooms. She was almost instantly kill- | ed. A sad commentary this upon the care lessness of those who leave firearms in ex posed situations. The funeral of Charles B. Penrose, late i Senator*of the Senate of Pennsylvania, took place on Friday from his late residence, Sev enth street and Washington Square. Previ ous to the starting of the funeral cortege, a large number of the friends of the deceased visited the house and took a last look at the features of the deceased. A large number of i persons, including the members of both Houses of the Legislature, attended the re , mains of the deceased to the Laurel Hill Cemetery. Comm.-dure Stewart has received orders from Washington to have the fitting out of s the steam frigate Minnesota completed with ail possible despatch. Her destination will ' be China, and she will probably carry out the j new Minister to that country. The Mituie- j suta will proceed via Norfolk, where she is to take on board her guns and powder. The ' sloop-of-war Preble will be fitted out and ready for sea by the Ist of June. Henry Bircks, one of the members of the j United States Cornet Band, died in this city on Friday of disease contracted at the Na tional Hotel, while on a visit to Washington on the 4th of March. The action for damages brought against Judge John K. Kane in the Court of Com- ; niun Pleas of Delaware county was some time ; since argued upon demurrer. To the deela- ' ration claiming damages Judge Kane put in five special pleas, setting forth his office, the proceedings which occurred, and justifying his entire conduct. The plaintiff replied tit i ijtiria to these pleas, that the defend .nt bad committed tire acts of his will, and without cause. The Judge's counsel demurred spe cially to the replication on three pleas, and joined issue in two of them. The argument on demurrer was held to December. On Sat urday Judge Haynes gave notice that he de cided against Judge Kane, so that the repli cation stands, and the case will go to trial on the general issue, and will be tried some time during the present summer. m The Scott Legion, composed of the return ed volunteers of the Mexican war, desirous of keeping up the recollections of the stirring events in which they participate 1, and of cul tivating a friendly spirit amongst themselves, have determined to celebrate the anniversary of the battle of Cerro Gordo by an annual supper, at which all those now residin in or about Philadelphia, who served in Mexico, arc expected to be present. The suppers will be kept up every year as long as there are three members of the association surviving, invitations have been extended to several distinguished officers to be present at the coming re union. A gentleman from Lancaster, who some weeks ago had his pocket picked, was again a victim yesterday to the extent of §BO and ! some valuable papers, lie was riding in the ; cars. Two nice young men ran against him, trod on his toes, and shoved him into a cor ner, roughly demanding "where he was push ing." Good natured gentleman apologized, and his pocket was picked.

Awful Death. —On the sth inst. a child of George Valentine of Jackson tp., Snyder Co., lust its life in a most shocking manner. The particulars, as we have learned them, are as follows: The day before its death, the child came into the kitchen, and in the act of l getting a drink ef water fell into a vessel of ' boiling water, which stood near tho cooking stove, by which the child was so severely scalded that it died tho next day, after suffer ing indescribable paiu and agony.
