The trial of Whelan was resumed to-day. The prisoner was dressed carefully in black. His eye was restless and roving, and his Ups endeavored vainly to be compressed and-determined. He seemed not so much a murderer as a shallow enthusiast, easily led by others. Ayn AM ile eres The city swarms with correspondents, detectives, &c, Around the jail a regiment is encamped, and & guard of twenty men receives Whelan every night. Each man is served out twenty-flyo rounds of ball cartridges, and the prisoner is marched up in square, The loyalists have threatened that if jus- tice is not done they will take Whelan by force and hang him, Public feeling is intense ahd the moral conviction is strong that Whelan is the murderer, SLx or seven Head Centres from New York and Buf- falo are here with money to aid in the defence and they are closely watched. The defence is despond- ent. So far the prosecution has eStablished the fact of threats uttered by Whelan and threatening ges tures on the night of the assassination. With re- gard to McGee and his presence that night one wit ness has proved that he saw Whelan and swears that he recognized him by his dress end walk. A severe cro3s~ mination failed to shake him. To-day defence got two witnesses to come up from Montreal who were expected to swear in direct opposition to the prosecution, The witnesses de. clined to perjure themselves and a fracas ensued. O'Farrell will be brought up to-morrow for a0 assault, and spicy disclosures are certain to be made. O’Farre!l is very despondent and cautious. Threatening letters have been sent to all the wit-" nesses for the prosecution, and one of them was attacked and knocked down*by a slung shot. Orrawa, Sept. 8, 1868. Constabies Jorden and Pinard stated how their at- tention was first directed to La Crox. They brought lum to town and he pointed out the spot where he saw & man shot, and described the particulars of the tragedy. La Crox is an ignorant French- man, and showed he was extremely unwilling or afraid to come forward in the matter, but that his first statement of the cireumstances connected with the murder closely agreed with his evidence yester- day, Witnesses testified to Whalen’s mysterious and Suspicions movements in the Parliament House on the night of the murder, Mr. J. J. MeGee testified to Whalen’s visits fo his brother's house on the morning of the 2d of January under an assumed name, Mr. Buckley, a messenger in the House, gave evi- dence tending to shield Whalen. He said he sus- pected another man whom he had seen lurking around the honse, ah he iis here that Buckley will be arraigned himself, Other witnesses were examined, and of whose tes- timony, although circumstantial. point to Whalen as the perpetrator of the crime. The court adjourned at six o'clock, to meet again to-morrow. The Crown counsel appear to feel fully satisfied that evidence will be Ng ae to convict Whalen, while the coun- sel for the defence expect to break it down, and the: are equally confident Whalen will be acquitted. There are said to seven Orangemen on the jury, ‘Mr, O'Reilly defends his challenging of Roman Catholic jurors on the ground, as he alleges, of a weil known be prciginy on the part of the many Ro- man Catholics in this neighborhood with Whalen. The refusal of Chief Justice Richards to allow a pe- remptory challenge of jurors, it is thought by many lawyers here, will furnish ample grounds for an ap- peal for a new trial in the event of its being found necessary to do 80 by a verdict against tho prisoner, The excitement has been very great.

Preparations for Their Departure for Europe Cg wwe To-Day. # Atan early hour yesterday morning the different members of the Chinese Embassy were astir and giv- ing their attention to the undiplomatic duty of pack- ing up, preparatory to the shipment of the bulk of their baggage to the steamer the same day. Tho number of pieces, amounting upon their arrival in this country to two hundred and eighty, it maybe‘ imagined,* has not been re duced by their presencd here, The Tajens, tho secretaries and the students were therefore quite actively occupied during the entire forenoon in giving directions to their servants atid reserving such necessary articles as they might require during aten days’ journey upon the ocean. In the after. noon all the baggage reached the steamer, and, under orders from Mr, Brown, executive officer of the Java, the steamer in whitch tho Embassy will Sail, Was stowed away in the hold by itsel, This im- portant duty having been disposed of, the Em- bassy gave attention to thane patina courteates which Indicate the appreciation of all connected with the hospitalities which they have received. The Tajens wrote a number of letters, which were accompanied by translations, ex sive of their obligations to those who were warmest in their hospitaiities and courtesies. Last evening the Tajens also received a number of visitors and were quite antmated in re- celving and returning compliments, Mr. Burlingame, as might DaTely be expected, he head of the mission, was literally besieged by during the entire day. The majority of these nothing less than “bores,” together with a few aries, Who seemed to think that he had no- ore to attend to than to listen to their talk to ion of intimate, esteemed and old friends, musing to witness the lively correspon- ed from autograph seekers, and had the r complied with but a small fraction of these requests he would have been compelled to defer his voyage until after the equinoxes, their stay in the United States the princt- mbassy purchased at different 18 most improved patterns of these arms were regularly As somo enterprising peop! ented the facts thu Y ve it appear would bh iat contracts were hthem for the supply of such arms to the nment, we are state tions’ in every entirely The following card irom Mr. from letters. rece i that Iam read fninit of lavaity Thave retrained from doing anything of the ivi a ave retrained trom doing anything o po ade iit ANSON BURLINGAME, New York, Sept. 7, 1863 urlingame has uniformly refused to receive presents Whatever in order to avoid the very ements which are now attempted to be folsted upon the public. 4 morning, at an early hour, the Custom House tng Jasmine, Captain Pierson, which has been set apart for the purpose by Mr, Wakeman, will receive the Embassy, together with a few fortunate friends, and proc directly to the steamer, ‘This arrange- ment bas been made tn order to avoid the crowd and inconveniences which would be inevitable under any other circumstances. The tug will carry the flag of China, and when the bassy embark upon the Java the dragon of the empire will be unfurled from the main. As they. are now about to embark the mandarins of all ranks are unreserved in expressing thelr re- grets that it has become necessary, tn view of the objects of their mission, to leave the United States. Everywhere they have received the largest possible share of popular attention, and at the seat of gov- ernment they received courtesies which have been but twice awarded since the establishment of the government—a formal reception from both houses of Congress. In addition to this they partook of the hosnitalities of the President, and, both oMctally and socially, of the same courtesy from the Secretary of State.’ They visited the great physical curiosity, Niagara Falls, and took a flying trip to one of our inland emporiums (Buffalo), after which they under- went the ordeal of a municipal entertainment at the “Hub.” In no instance has anything occurred to mar or affect the sincerity of these exhibitions of the people's sympathy for the representatives of the an- cient empire of the East and through them their wish for ad future prosperity and welfare of the ire itself. Enercon has not only the satisfaction of having one of her own citizens at the head of the mission, but also the privilege of taking the first step in bringing China into the fold of nations, extending to her a hearty welcome and an earnest wish that she may meet with the same feelings of friendship wherever her representatives may open negotiations. The mission which ts now about to leave our shores has opened to America @ great fleld of caverpeias, ‘and while we say farewell and a safe voyage, it is to be hoped that the dragon of China may soon become familiar to American waters, both diplomatic relations and in the development of an extensive commerce. A Curious Interview with the Doctor of the Chinese Embassy~Americnn Female Physi+ clans to bo Admitted Into China. {From the Boston Advertiser, Sept. 8.] The writer, through the interpreter, Teh, had a conversation with the physician of the Chinese Em- basay, Dr. Tso, when in Boston, principally for the purpose of learning whether, if an educated female physicihn should be sent out’ from this country, she would be favorably received, With to the resent connection of women with the profession here, the Doctor stated that the practice of mid- wifery was wholly in their hands; that they were not taught the art in any schools, but had books on the subject to read. his statement agrees with other authorities. For example, Dr. | William Lockhart, an English missionary physictan, after twenty years’ practice in China, in ao work published in 1861 says, in alluding to this department of the profession, ‘This practice is in China left entirely to women. It may be ob- served, in passing, that the Chinese race does not appear to have run out in consequence. Ten ro- marked that when the empresses (wives of the em- peror) were attended by physicians in case of sick- ness, the doctor was not allowed to see or touch the patient; a string was tied around her wrist, and she sat on one side of a window while the doctor sat on the other and ascertained the state of the ee by holding the string between his thumb and finger. Among the common people, he said, the doctor could feel of the woman's pulse and see her tongue. In reply to the question as to sending out an edu- cated female physician to teach their women the medical art, and to practice, the doctor ex- pressed his approval of the idea without qualifica- tion, The interpreter, for himself, said it would be a very good Dian, and it would receive encour. agement from the government officials, The other interpreter, Fung, coming into the room at that mo- ment, and having the pi ition stated to him, said “Good, very good.’ Teh, being asked if he would not bear in mind this interview, and when the lady came out give her all the encouragement he could, said “Yes, yes, certainly.” ‘The writer had previously conferred with Mr. Bur- lingame, who expressed his decided approval of the lan of sending out a medically educated woman to ekin and his readiness to do what he could to in- sure the success of her mission. There is every reason to believe that a doctress of Me nt oe be a popular personage among ali c and espe- cially in the Wgher grades of society. She would be welcomed to the private apartments of the Em- presses, while the doctor sat outside holding the string and asking questions through a third person. It may here be stated, for the information of any in- terested, that the Missionary Boards are ready to send out female missionary physicians to Pekin and other stations as soon aa tlie right ones are ready to go.
