CHINA AXD 1 MD 1 A . ( From the Times . ) The monthly express from Marseilles has brought , in snlddpsawi of the Ovtrlsnd Mail , letters and papers from Bombay to the 3 d of February . The intelligence "Which they communicate is of the Mihest importance , and in particular that relating to Cfcina . On the 23 d of 2 f ovember , Sir Henry Pottinger published a proclamation , declaring that he had , sines his srrivxl at Atney , learned "with extreme horroT and asiannhmsnt that many more titan one hundred British snigscts , who had been -wrecked in the ship I ? ertadda and br ig Ann in September , 1841 , and March , 2 Si 2 , on the -coast of the island of Formosa , liad been lecenHy vat to death by the Chinese authorities
there , wio alleged that this cold-blooded act had been perpetrated by order of the Emptror . This prodamaaon goes on to describe the atrocity of this ssngsinary and inhuman crime , and concludes with stating that the British Plenipotentiary vkis resolved to demand frum the- Emperor that the local authorities , trho , by false representations , had led to the commission of the enormity , should be degraded and eonaignly punished , and that their property shonld be confiscated , and the proceeds banded over to the oSeers of the British Government for the relief and support of the families of those "who had been thus jnardlessiy put to death , A threat rf leue ^ al of hostilities "was held out in case the demand should not be complied -with . It "was , however , supposed that the Emperor "would not refuse compliance .
On the 7 th of December a formidable riot broke ont in the neighbourhood of Canton , "which soon extended itself to the foreign factories . The immediate cause is stated to be the irregular conduct of tha crew of some ships , and in particular of that ol the Fort " William , "who "were allowed to go ashore in numbers "without any proper efnesr to control them . The mob had , it is said , been excited previously by certain anti-British partisans ; they soon qaiitted the sailors , -who had by recreating from the original place of combat led them towards the factories . The first great object of attack "was the Ttriti- ^ h fectoTj ; the y burned the nagnsff and the flag , and soon af ter-srards ihe -windows and doors of the buildings "were ferced open , the mob entered , and the ¦ work of pillage commenced . Fire was then set to the edifies , " which -was consnsied . luckily , the steamti Proserpine , caring on board Sir Hugh Gough , arriTed At Canton , and the rioting csssfd . The merchants at
< 3 snton , who remained there until the 14 th , and also ¦ with Sir Henry Pottinger , -who "was at Hongkong , xe-^ -B-Ktrng ± be latter to order a protective force to be sent jo Cantcn , in order that they might earry on their comma Te in security . This application received a decided ufo tj ! from Sir H . Pottinger , -who , in his reply , made Kme * = ? = « comments on the conduct of the merchants 32 is la * ifr 63 made a replication in their defence . All file cor . "" espoEdence has been remitted to the British Governs sit . Sir H . Pottinger , in his last letter to the nerefcsna , dated December 24 , states , that the Viceroy at Can . " ^ t » d , in reply to the letter addressed to Mm , declart ^ In * great anxisfy , as "wtll as his perfect iblBty , to pr . ¦•<* £ * all foreigners ; and'had also expressed ins readinesss , to repay such losses as might have been incurred dnriii % &s I 3 * riots , afttr they should tare been correctly * * certainfcd and submitted through hei Haiesty ' s Goven .

" The subject "Was almost a daily topic of debate , resolution after resolution being moved , some for * nd some against
as-Eumpnon . The question on Mr . Rive ' s resolutions was taken fin the 18 th nit , -when it was resolved by a vote of 25 to 22 , that the subject should lie over to the first Monday in December . Mr . M'Dnffio then moved a resolution that the Government of the United States had no constitutional power to assume the debt * contracted by the sates for their own proper purposes , by tbe-issne of stock , whatever fund may be pledged for the payment of the interest or principal . The resolution -was ordered to lie over for a day ; but as there ^ ere only twelve -working days left of the session , it is evident the resolutions on the subject of assumpti-in -would come to nothin ? during the present year .

Last week at the Police Court , Manchester , Nathaniel and Edwin Lucas , carrying on business at Leigh and Maeclofield , as silk manufacturers and dyer « , were charged with having in their pos session a quantify of silk , which was said to have been stolen in the following manner : —The parties { the two Lucas ' s } were said to have entered the warehouses of difi \ rent merchants and tradesmen in the way of business , and then to have taken the opportunity of examining the uinvrent fastening's oi the doors , and getting to know where the most
valuable things were placed . They then informed their workmen , who were thus easily enabled to ge , into the warehouse by night , and carry away wha ' - ever they wanted . The articles were then consigned to the dye-tools , so as to defy detection . It is said that property to the amount of £ 10 , 000 has been stolen in this way .

A Ghost Stost . —Sunderland la in an uproar about a ghost ! A young mariner of the Myrtle , near Cairu . s , saw his sister ' s ^ host at sea , and agjin a few nights ago , in his Vessel on the Wear . On the latter occasion she promised him a second vi .- ^ t in a . ' ¦ hort time , when she would reveal something of importance . A rumour went abroad that twelvo o ' clijck . on Thursday ntgtu was ihe appointed hour , aad loni ; before that time upwards of a thousand persons were congregated near Sunderland churchyard , to catch a glimpse of tbe ghost as it wended its way from its own narrow bed to the bedsido of the haunted Eailor . But although they had the
patience to remain at thrir post until one o clock ia the morniDg , in the midst of a delightful drizzle , their curiosity went unrewarded . Spirits , ptrhups , are not exempt from the roguery of bodies , but take a malicious pleasure in tantalizing poor sil ' y mortals ; or it may be true , as has been gravely affirmed , that the pnbhc had mistaken the night , and that the ghost had haunted the young man in his hammock in the night of Wednesday , and unfolded to him a tale of horror , which it forbade him to repeat to any living ¦ person , save and except heT husband , who is now at sea . But why could not the ghobt itself convey the story to the husband I
Extraordinary Marriage . —The following has been communicated to us by a highly respectable gentleman , and we shall not make further comment upon it , than to say , that ihe facts are anything but creditable ( to say the least ) to the parties concerned On Wednesday week the daughter of a comfortable farmer living in the vicinity of Barne was to have been married to a young man to whom she had been engaged , and every thing was arranged for the interesting event . However , the fickle fair one chang'd her miud , and on ihe morning appointed for the wedding she eloped with her father's servant boy , who , it appears , had more faveur in her sight . For some time all was consternation and Burprise , bat after a little reflection , the father and
disappointed bridegroom determined that a wedding there should be by hook or crook , and it was not long until they selected tbe granddaughter of the former , a child untfer twelve years of age ! The only thing now necessary for the consummation vf lie marriage was the preser-ce of his Reverence , but s » n tbat obstacle was removed , and he made his appearance in all due form ; his " fist was greased '' wk ' a a £ 10 note , and the little girl became a bride . The bridegroom gave the father £ 50 to live with him , and thus terminated an event which has caused feeliBjrs of general disgust amongst the respectable classes in the neighbourhood . We have since learneo . that the poor child has been sent to a $ chool at some distance from the locality where this strange scsne occurred . —Carlisle Journal .
A LaucjHable Occurrence . —Oa Tuesday last , a large bison or bonassus was forwarded by Mr . Herring , frtm the establishment in the New-road , per railway , * . o a collection of wild beasts , exhibiting in Liverpool . The huge animal came encased in a large iron-bomd cage or den , and seemed to enjoy his quick trauit with great equinamity . He arrived safely on Wednesday morning at the Wappiug station ; bat 4 in removing him from the carriage , his immense , weight completely forced out the bottom of his den , when the unwieldy beast , feeling ]? is legs at liberty , bounded off at railway speed , and did not Btop until the front of the oago came in contaet with a barrel « f ale ' that some brewers ware lowering into a cellar of Mr . Hill ' s vaults , in the vicinity of the Custom-house , the head of which was
completely stavtd in , and the heavy wet soon saturated the feet of the passers by . The collision broke tbe front of the den , vhich admitted out the bead and horns of the infuriated monster , who , wildly glaring and foarn ' mg at the mouth , seemed to be debating which of the dravmen ( who were , in their endeavour to escape , falling helter-skelter over each other , ) he should attack . At this moment , Mr . James Lee , who ¦ had followed with breathless haste , arrived , and , by throwing a blanket over . his head , succeeded in leading him to tte Haymarket , followed by a concourse of spectators , where he was safely delivered into the custody of his future master . The above occurrence , luokily unattended with any serious accident , has been the means of attracting crowds of visitors to the menagerie- — Liverpool Journal .

The Messager givea the following account : — A new and cruel disastor has just fallen on one of oar principal colonies . The earthquake of Feb . 8
, Whion Only caused partial diBasters in several islands of the Antilles , has covered with mourning the grande terre ^ t Guadaloupe , and the important town ° fi - |> "l te-a - * « re no longer exists . We lay textually before our readers tho report which the Governor-General Gourbeyre has addressed to the Minister of Marine from the scene of the disaster . Urders have just been sent by telegraph to Brest , Toalon , aud Rochefort for money , medicines , and a million of rations to bo sent immediately to Guadaloupe . The following is the dispatch of the Governor General : ¦ —
Basse Terre , Feb . 8 , three o ' clock , p m . M An earthquake , which lasted seventy seconds , has just thrown the inhabitants of Guadaloupe into the utmost consternation . Thiu event took place this morning at half-past ten o ' clock . At Basse Terre several buildings have fallen down , and a number of houses are SM ^ njured as to be no longer inhabitable fortunately , ®* life has been lost . At Saintea all the bouses built of masouwork have been overturned . The quarters to leeward have much suffered ; persons have been killed and wounded . I have this moment learned that Pointe-a-Pitre no longer exists . I am about to get on horseback and proceed to the scene of the disaster . " Pointe-a-Pitre , Fob . 9 , three o'clook .
" Pointe-a-Pitre is entirely destroyed . What was spared by the earthquake has since perished by fire , which burst out a few minutes aft jr the h © use 3 fell . I am writing m the midst of the ruins of this unfortunate city , in presence of a population without food and without asylum , in the midst of tha wounded , of whom the number is considerable ( it is said from 1 , 500 to 1 , 800 !) The dead are still under the ruins , and their number is calculated at several thousands . The fire is still raging . All tho quarters of the colony have euffcrd . Tne town of Moulehas been destroyed , and thirty persona have lost their lives . Trie small towns of St . Francos , St . Anne , Port Louis , Bertrand , and St . kose , have been overturned , and in all there are
dead and wounded . ' 1 implore , in favour of the inhabitants of Guadaloupe , that Inexhaustible Goodness which , from the throne , pours forth so many benefits I implore all Franoe to stretch forth an aiding hand to us , aa she has already done to Martinique . She will not abandon this population , entirely French , nor leave to wretchedness the widows and orphans whom this terrible disaster has overwhelmed . I shall speedily send you suoh details as I shall be able to colleot . I fear that tho su ^ ar crop will be lost , for the mills are all destroyed . Famine stares us in the face ; prompt succour it . absolutely neces &ary . Joiuvillo hast much suffered : Petit-Bourg is destroyed . " Gouhbevre , Governor . "
The Messager adds— " By a hippy circumstance the soldiers of the garrison of Pointe-a-Pitre had time to evacuate their quarters , and we have Only to deplore the loss of chree of them . Martiniquu only felt the earthquake slightly . We hear of no victims or of any important damage . " Tha Moniteur Parisicn says— " The calamity was increased by the occurrence of a vast fire . Two thousand bodies are said to have been dug out oi the ruins , and it was reckoned that there was an equal number of wounded . At the moment when the account left , iive hundred persons had undergone amputation , and died after the operation . " The Fatrie states that most of tho houses , and more than fifty sugar establishments , were destroyed . The Commerce has a letter from Martinique , dated tho 14 th ult ., from which we take the following extracts : —
" On the 8 th , the day of the catastrophe which reduced Pointe-a-Pitre to a heap of ruins and asru s , I was going towards tho Savannah , about twnty minutes past ten o'clock , in order to reach the palace , when I heard cries of distress issuing from every side of me . The people rushed from their houses , the women carrying their children ia their arms—all hurrying to the open promenade . I then felt the earth tremble under ray hoi , and began to hasten my own steps . The shocks continued with increased violence for nearly two minutes ; but , fortunately , there was no vertical movement , which would have inevitably thrown down our houses ai in I 8 < $ y . We soon ascertained that our town remained uninjured , but the old and experienced inhabitants
soon decided that whut they felt was only tha tail of an earthquake , and tliat we should shortly hear of some great disaster at one or moro of tli- - neighbouring islands . Tins terrifying prediction was awfully verified on the 9 ' -h by letters fr <> m Basse Terre , which mado ua acquainted with the total destruction of the finest cicy of tho Antilles . Our Governor and Admiral De Moges proceeded to take measures for the relief of the euffoTin ^ inhabitants of Ponte-a-Pitre . The Admiral , on the 8 am ; day , sailed for Guadaloupe , followed by the steaai-frigate Gomer , sent by the Governor . They took with them linen , medicines , provisions , and stores of all kinds , and several surgeons . The inhabitants of St . Pierre dispatched them a large
collection of similar supplies and money . The first or-rson who has arrived at Fort Royal from the afflicted island is an old retired captain , aged 7 ' 2 , who escaped a = t by a miracle . He was buried in the ruins , and there remain , d for moro than an hour . He states that , at the moment after the shock , fires broke out and consumed much that it had spared . Ia this additional calamity the hospital was included ; such of the patients as were able ' also made their escape , but many were burnt alive in the building . No calculation can yet be made of the number of the killed , but it is estimated at one-third of the population . Among the killed are two distinguished advocates , M . Borne de Graud Pre and M . Cardose ; M . Gr < ffier . the avone ; two notaries : the wtfe and
sovpu children of Lap ' ain Nadau des Ilets , of tho Sappeurs , and superintendent of bridges and roads at Point-a-Patre ; M . Deville , senior , formerly member of the Colonial Council , MM . Margan and O ' Ogremont , and M . Noirtin and his family , composed of twelve persons . M . Foiguet , Procureur du Pvoi , has one of his legs broken , aud M . Farinole , Counsellor of the Court Royale , has a contusion of tho ihijih so severe as to create apprehension that it is fractuied . These two are the only magistrates of Guadaloupe who have suffered , and happily not one waxki'led . Tnebest built and constq'iently the richest quarter of the town has sufforod { most , and it is said that the elite of the inhabitants have perished . We are told that at the moment of the
earthquake , upwards of 200 peopie were assembled at the Cafe Americain , to witness tho drawing of a lottery for a small vesael , and none escaped . Of the detachment of tho 1 st Rudiment of Marines quartered at Point-a-Petre , only four men were killed , and one of the captains was slightly wounded . Some wretches took advantage of the dire confusion to plunder . At first thty were said to be negroes , led on by a man of colour ; but this , it has since appeared , was an error , and that the unfeeling robbers were all sailors—some say Americana , headed by their caotain , all of whom have been arrested and confined in the hold of some ship . I have just learned the return of the Gomer , which the Governor is od tbe point of sending to France . On her arrival
at Point a-Pttre , the steam Frigate fouud tho town a ' mnst entirely evacuated , and uo one of authority to rfceive the provisions and money she had brought from Martinique . She carried 100 wounded to Basse-Tarre , where they received all the aid their condition required . It wan found necessary to amputate both the logs of one lady , an operation which she bore with truly Christian fortitude , and she will , it io hoped , recover . When the frigate left tho island , Point-a-Pitre was still burning . A great number of bodies had been got out of the ruina , and carried by a schooner into the channel of the Saintcs where tUey received a watery grave . The site of the town hadjiecome pestilential , aud every one fled from it . " % The following are extracts from letters in the Press : — " Pointe-a-Pitre , Feb . 9 .
" Basse-Torre has suffered but little , and although a number oi houses arc uninhabitable , all remain standing and no person has been injured ; but at Pointe-a-Pitre all was overturned , except the wooden houses . Immediately after the shocK fires broke out in 200 or 300 places together , and totally consumed ihe houses . At present the names are playing over the remains , and in the whole of the town , which contained 16 , 000 souls , there are not ten houses inhabitable . No description can give an idea of this disaster . We can scarcely credit what wesee before our eyes . I left Basse-Terre with the Governor yesterday , a few hours after the accident , and came here . We are about to set out for Mottle , which has , aJa" ! been destroyed . The number of victims is considerable , bat much smaller than could have
bt en expected . Only one soldier has perished There ar « under the ruins a number of dead bodies , which are being gradually taken out , and the presence of whioh causes great uneasiness , on account of the corruption that must speedily take place , M . L'Hari don , a medical man , who lately arrived , perished in i he ruins ; his family was saved . M . Nadan , officer of OPgineers , has lost eighteen of his household , thirteen being relatives and five slaves . He euccceeded in saving one of his children . The number of wounded is exceedingly great . Women and young girls may be seen with two and three limbs fractured . The sflene is a hundred times more horrible than a field o ^ ' battle . Most of the sugar-mills are destroyed , and ihe crop of sugar-canes will be oat . The Governor is admirable in the midst of all bis afflicted population . "

Another letter of the same dateisays : — "Pohue-a-Pure no longer exists ; what was spared by the eanhqu ike has been destroyed by the flinies . It is said that there are two thamand victims at least . Marl y and Sainte-Rose are two residences belongiug to Count de ChaZ'iUes , delegate o'GuadaJoupe ; the former is level with the ground , not the smallest particle of mason-work being left standing . At the latter the mill ia totally destroyed , and the sugar buildings , though standing , are in a ruinous and dangerous state . Unfortunately , all accounts represent the other habitations ) , at Cinq-Eianji , Moulin-a-Vent , everywhere , in tact , to be in a similiar condition . In the commune of Sainte-Ann , the mills at Chateauprun , Ghissac , and Beis-Jolan , are the only ones left standing . " Another letter , of February 11 , says : —
"At Pointe-a-Pitre the number ! of tbe dead is so great that no interment takes ' place . They are thrown outside the passes , and the number is unknown . In several places the earth opened , and threw up water and sand . The ! hour at which the disaster occurred , although less fa ^ al than that of the similar calami y at Martinique ( six iu the morning ) , nevertheless considerably augmented the loss of life , for it surprised the popu ' ation at breakfast . The shock must have been of exceeding violence , for the mills , which were actual towers , vv ' ith walls of mason work six or seven feet thick , were completely levelled with the ground . Guadaloupe , which is divided into two islands , separated by an arm of the sea some metres wide , and a fewjfeet deep , a . range The
enough ! only suffored in the flat ^ arta . muuutainous and volcanic regions have no serious disaster to deplore . Thus the towns which have been destroyed are situated in the Grand-Terre , which is the low flat part of the colony . On the contrary , Guadaloupe , properly jso called , which contains Basae-Terre , the seat of government , has only slightly suffered , although itsjsoil is placed over lara , and it holds in its centre the Scufriere , an ever-burning volcano . A mixture of mud and water was , it may be remarked , thrown out of the earth ia some places . The Soufriere , in its last eruption , also threw out a vast quantity of water and mud , and at
the present minute is sending forth steam in abundance . The loss of property , particularly at Pointaa-Pitre , must be immense . It wijl fall principally ou tn « merchants . The country parts will no doubt , be severely visited , since a great number of mills and other buildings—very expensive matters iu the AntilleR—have bten destroyf . d ; but the loss of buildings , and aa interruption of business , cannot bo compared to the destruction of a town aontaiuing 15 , 000 souls , where an immense Iquantity of merchandise was consumed . Nevertheless , those acquainted with Guadaloupe , and its elements of woakh , ou ^ ht not to despair .

Livehpool Corn Market , M nday , March 13 . —A change of wind in the early jpart of tbe wff-k brought up a numerous floet of vossels , and the arrivals of British Grain , &c . contain 3987 , qvsv > f Wheat , 6084 qrs of Oats , 3-72 qrs of B : ; r !<« y , G 237 qrs of Malt , 10 , \ 15 sacks of Flour , and -23 , 759 loads of Oatmeal , coastwise and from Ireland .

Inactivity and tendency towards lower prices have continued to be the prevailing characteristics of the Corn trado .

Manchester Corn Market . —Saturday , March 11 . —A steady consumptive demand . has been experienced throughout the week for gq-id and middling qualities of Flour , and choice cuts ot ' Oatmeal , the trade , however , limiting their purchases to quantities suitable for present use ; and to effect sales lower prices were submitted to . With a change of wind the arrivals coastwise and from Irelaud are large ; the supplies of Flour from , the interior kept pace with the demand ; but there is no accumulation
of stock in first hands . At our maijket this morning there was very little inquiry for Wheat , and wo nominally repeat the quotations of this day se'nnight . Excepting choice superfine whites , the scarcity of which enables factors ( to ob'aiu . ' 375 . to 38 s . per 280 ibs ., the value of Flour was not supported , aud the business done was at a * decline of 6 d to Is per sack . Oatmeal must likewise be noted lid per load lower . Oats and Beans were slow of sale , but we mako no change in the currency for the finest qualities of either article .
State of Trade . —The mercanti l e accounts from India snd China , though somewhat chequered in their character , are on the whole , eon-idemi favour able ; and they had the effect of giving additional firmness to the market for manufactured goods yesterday ; many of iho manufacturers of wide clolhs declining to take orders at the rates of last week ; but no great amount of busiupss was done . The yarn market was also , on the whole , raf hnr firmer than last week , and a somewhat larger business was done , though without any improvement in pricts . — Manchester Guardian of WednesJaV . London Corn Exchange , Monda y , March 13 ni —The stands being heavily .-utiptied , and the aticudance of dealers ( most of whom purchased with
extreme caution ) by no means lar ^ e , the demand for English Wheat was excessively slow , at an abatement iu the figures of Monday last of from Is to 2 r > per qv .
