Tam most Lappy to state that at the present time every- thing is very quit in this quarter, aud the late colle ail. ‘eaity has in a great measure died out in the minds of the Chinese; yet tho foreign residents still feel a little uaeasy, ‘and still insist that the Chinese have only cooled off for the purpose of deceiving them, and that at no distant day they will make o grand rally and massacre all the whites; Dut, in fact, this is ail a pretence, got up for the sole pur- pose of keeping the national ships of the various squad- yong lying here, to the great danger of all the lives on Doard of them. If the whites will only keep quiet, and eeuse from annoying the Chinese and kidnapping the @oolics, they will bave nothing to fear; on the other hand, of the wh.te population will insist on imposing upon this people, the results must rest upon their own heads, and ‘they do not deserve the protection they seek to claim from thea respective governments. The various onslanghts upon: ‘Shis country of late years by England have created, and Fightly, too, a very strong feeling in the minds of the Chi. ‘weve against all foreigners; stil] they are and do express themselves as triendly towards our country; and to main- twin this good feeling our countrymen resid.ng in China ‘will do well to use all honorable means in dealing with ‘them, and if they should follow the sound dootrine Mid down by the Hon. Wa. B. Reed, in his late speech before ‘the Board of Trade i Philadelphia, they would reap much enefit by 20 doing. Iam happy tosay that such was ‘hat genticman’s conduct while in this country that he has teh behind him av honorable name, and he is reapected Ay the Chinese, as well as by all foreigners. ‘On the Zist of August the French bark Gertrude, which hnad been the cause of all the late difficulties, left Shang. hac.

Her late troubles in these waters, including the cash ad- ‘vanced for her slaves—beg pardon, I should say covlies— whieb has not been refunded, have cost her owners e@ver seventeen theusand dollars; aad every one Winks her capiain remarkably fortunate to get away witn his life, much more his ship. It will be 10 doabt a long time before he or bis bark be seen in this viwer again. You, sir, can safely say to all of eur pious merebanta of New York, and that dearly Christian and anti-slavery State of Massachusetts, that the coolie slave fade bas received its death blow in North China, and the Chinese are toiling its requiem through the whole country, Nipgpo and Amoy have now joined their brechren of , and declared that their countrymen no longer shall be carried off into slavery, under @ pretext of sery- mg ap apprenticeship.

This is the most Christian act they have done since the missionary cause was establish- ed in North China. Tam no black republican or aati- slavery man, but, thauks to God, the white heathen slave ‘trade bas received a terrible biow in Nocth China, woich ‘will fast spread over the whole empire. ‘The Rev.

If such were the case—and noone here seems or pretends to believe it—the two thousand must have vanished as noiselessly and speedily as they came together. The dozen or two soldiers despatched to the Campo immediately the rumor had reached the National Palace tailed to discover the shadow of a foe, Something or other, however, must have occurred in the way of a conspiracy, for several arrests were made that night (Friday) and the following day, whilst on Sun- day night the padre, Francisco Calvo, a pious and devoted partisan of Mora, and five others (laymen) were marched off, under a suilicient escort, in the direction of the Indian village of Terraba,to which place they have been sum- marily banished. This village lies near the New Grana- dian frontier, and is reached from here by a wild, deso late, dangerous road runuiag through the mountains and forests of the Pacific slope of the Cordilleras. For this reagon jt is fearfully remote, and may weil be considered a solitude out of which there are fow chances of escape. It is natural, of course, that those who feasted and grow fat on the public spoils plentifully eupplied them by Mora should be disaffected towards the government that has reduced their extravagant living, and boldly arrested a career of national snolmuoa. But We eflurts and intrigues, ube plepees even, of such men will prove utterly un- availing; the provigional government being wide awake, and all the iwteligence abd public virtue of the country being strongly united in its fuyor and pledged to ite de- fener. Jn a word, the political life of Jaan Rafael Mora is closed for & is partibuns are few, characterless and pow- erless. On the other hand, bis opponents constitute an overwbelming mujorit., and have all the resources of the country at their command. Besides which, the character Doard of that ship, and whose arm was amputated by Assistant Surgeon Wales, of this ship, I am rejoiced to say fs nearly recovered. He has lost his mgut arm at the shoulder,and his righteye. A purge of $1,700 has been made up for him ou board of the Powhatan, and a large fam wil) be collected on board of this ship, and now that poor Wilsou is well provided for, it is to ‘be hoped that government will do something for the young orphan child @f poor James Hart, the Commodore’s coxswain, that ‘was killed at the late battle at the mouth of the Peiho, while obeying tbe orders of his commanding officer. The fatherless child resides with its grandfather, Mr. Hart, oa ‘Leng Island. Certainly government will not let this poor starve, whose father lost his life in serving his eountry. Whether he was rightly doing co or not, he was ‘obeying his superior officers’ order. Let justice be dour, whore Justice is justly due. Saihng master George Bacon, of thi ship, has received hie commission as a lientenant in the navy. Mr. B is from New York. He is a very worthy and exceilent offer, and is beloved and respected by all on board of | thie ship. On the 24th the Tovywan was despatched to Nuwwgpo for the purpose of conveying Mr. Martm, inter- preter, (lately attached to Mr. Ward's suite,) home, and alse to learn the state of alfaire in that vicinity. Iam happy to state tliat the cholera, which made it appear- ance on board of us a few days ago, has entirely disap- ed, and those who were attacked have all recovered. sloop Germantown was, at last dates, atill at Naga: gaki. The Powhatan will proceed to Nagasaki and Jedio, frem this port. Capt.

He reports several ships in that Port anxious to trade, bat could not do go until the cur- Tency ie s.ttled on a fair basis. We learn that Mr. Harris ‘was enjoying excellent health in bis new home—the tem- ple of Jan shook jee—in the city of Jeddo. Mr. E Mt.

The Hon Mr. Ward and suite will make Shanghao, for the present, their home. He is now the guest of the house of Augustine Heard & Co. Iam sorry to state that dizeontent to a considerable degree has begun to show itself among our men, the cause of which is the great dis- appointment of not being ordered home, as we had ox. pected to have been, according to the honorable Sccra- fary’s views. We can sec by the papers that ships on all the other stations have been relieved, yet we have not ‘the slightert hope of leaving for home before next winter; and, as matter of fact, we shall make a three yoars’ eruise instead of two. The mouth of the Peiho river is now 60 completely ob- structed with all kinds of stafls and stakes that it will be impossible for any vessels to enter, as the guns of the | forte would cut them to pieces before they could succeed | im making a clearing. Nothing is known as tothe inten- tion of the English in regard to affairs in that locality. A fetier has just been received by us from an officer on ‘board of the ship Germantown at Nagasaki, which gives us the intelligence thata serious riot wok place in that Rarbor a fow days ago, botween the crow of an American ship and the Japanese on stiore. It originated respecting taking fresh water away from the shore without paying for it, which ie cemanded by the Japancee, Shots were ged, and two Japanese were shot dead. Mr. Frawer, an American merchant, took part in the affray. Lowers state that the greatest excitement prevailed in that y And that serious difficulty was apprehended. Capt. , of the Germantown, was investigating the mater. RR is great pity that onr shipmasters will thus atemptto @reate new troubles with these people, and thereby create a bad feeling between the two countries, The mail of the 2ith of June from the United Biates arrived two dave ago; but it brought no mews for us concerning our orders for home. We have almost come to the conclusion that there has been some foul play respecting the detention of the Germantown and this sip, when the Powhatan, which is not two years in commission is daily expectug her relief, the Hartford, to arrive. Tam sorry w stato that the consequence is that the greatest diseouteutment now exists amongst this once happy crew. If wa shonid start to-day we would be over two yenrs anda half ia commission before we could reach home. only is that the t mail bring us the glad tidings that we are ordered houw. The ton, MrhWard, with his secretary, will proceed to Japan in the frigate Powhatan. He will pay Minister Harris « view at Jeddo. Count Medlom, @ Rusgian, died in Shanguaca few days ago.

Our Hong Kong Correspondence, Hong Kone, Sept. 13, 1859, ‘The Storm in China—A Succession of Typhoons and Cy- clones, de. ‘The chief incidents of the last four weeks lave been a s@acoession of typhoons, most disastrous in their offact up on the the coast shipping. ‘Thetyphoon of the 27th of July was the first serious blow of the season, but as the vortex pageed one hundred and fifty miles to eastward of this port, its full effet was mot experienced here. This was the gale in which the Panama, Nymph and Sea Nymph were dismated. The Iatter, although seen after the gale, has made no appear ance in any port, and is given up for lost. On the 19th of Augueta heavy cyclone passed to the westward of this place, ddfog considerable damage in the will of the Men composing the provigional government—that especially of President Movtealeagre—stands so nigh and Orm, tor strict probity and enlightenment, that no feeliug of dibirvst or msuboraiauon tireateus, or cven tends in the sligh’est degree to embarrass it. Montealeagre is an excellent man—upright, gentle, just, earnest and fearless. The most jealous adherent of tne deposed President has not a word of disparage ment to mutter against his Excellency. Educated abroad, married to an amiable and accomplished English lady, familiarized by a ana pergunal intercourse with the ways through which other countries bave progressed, and deeply impressed with the necessities, whilst he is at the same me proud of the aboundivg capabilities of bis own, President Moptealeagre ig just the man for Costa Kica at thia crisis. It will be well for the couutry should the republic maintain bum at the head of her affairs. The Constituent Assem 91y is still in session. General José Maria Castro, ove of the most cultivated and finished gen- tlemen in the country, presides at {ts sittings. These are heid in the National Palace, aud, after the fashion of the Bnivsh Parliament, forthe most part at aight. The deli- berations are open to the public, aad marked by the ex- treme courteournees aud the fair intelligence of the ma- jority of those who conduct them. The chief aim of the members, so far, has been to re strict the powers of the President and’ enlarge those of Congrese. The latter is to consist of two boties—a Senate and House of Representatives—this having been mined on for the purpose, it has been prociaimed, of throwing an additioval defence around the popular liber- ties and impeding the encroachments of the Executive. An earnest desire generally cxists to assimilate the new constitution to-that of the United States A debate on the clause guaranteeing the freedom of re- ligious worship is the only inci tent which, up to this, has in the slightest degree shaken the coufidence reposed in the Assembly. The clause was obstinately co nbatted by aband of fervent and uncompremising churchmen, who urged the prohibition of religious exercises, private as well as public, save and except those of the Courch of Rome. In this age of the world, with the most stolid of despotisms improving in the light of a new order of i thi attempt to commit the national! representation of Costa Rice to 80 outrageous a prohibition, was somethtug worse than abeurd. But the debate terminated, however, in tue prohibition being outvyoted, which reguit has given rise w general rejoicings. The Americun Minister, the Hon.

In other words, the titles are simple to those who co not understand them, and complex to those who do, To simplify: the first thing gonerally required by the purchaser on the eve of conciuaing a bargain—or more property on the eve of being batbouzied—is a brief or abstrect of title, which the seller can a: once provide, and from an examination of which (we aro au hile defective) no one can deny its accu: | May be perfectly accurets, and bege very required certificd evidence of correctness, showing title to | m piece of land in A, #0 simple and uppatently so conola- sive that the new purcbuser congratulates himself upon | the clear tile he is getting; yot a brief or abstract of title | for the identical piece of land, equatly accurate, plain | and simple, af an abstract, and having similar evi dences upon ite face, muy a8 readily be propared showing titte in B, and to pul an extreme case, a similar one may show tite in C.
