Aramor that is pleasing to foreign residents, and agam especially to British residents, concerns the Enghsh mission to China, We have it that elther Mr, Erskine or Sir Harry Parkes, now Minister in Japan, 1s to be the successor of Sir Rutherford All- cock, Any change from the latter would be considered ao benefit; but public opinion is divided ag to the rumored possible succes- sors. That poruon of the foreign population which might be called extremists—namely, those who are witing to come in conflict with the Chinese government upon any or all occasions—are Cesirous of seeing Sir Harry here for several rea- sous. In the first place, Sir Harry 1s said to have pursued a Very vigorous policy in Japan. (There 18 Tuuch meaning 1n your “very vigorous,’’) Secondly, on account of the harsh treatment Parkes received while Censul at Canton he is supposed to owe the Chinese a grudge, and that therefore he will “have at them” at every opportunity. But the wisdom of terpenes d Sir Harry Parkes to this mission is questionable upon another ground, which is the Probability that the Chinese government would refuse to receive him in the character of minister. ‘They have a right to object to any one that they con- Before Chinese Magnates, Nuns and Female Teachers a Dangerous Example for the Eastern Virgins. Another Rap at Minister Low—The Expe- dition to the Corea—Miscella- neous Items of Interest. Hong Kona, April 10, 1871, The United States steamer Colorado arrived here onthe (th from Amoy and Manila, She comes now, it is understood, m accordance with an arrangement made last fall with Mr. Low, the American Minister at Pekin, to meet him here this month aod proceed in May to the Corea, Air, Low bas not yet arrived. He was expected 1o be here by the 16th, but as ne writes now that ho will not start ttl the 12th, be will not be here before the 20th or later, and the party will probably not leave Shanghae tilisome time in May, Meantime rather a fortunate cvent has occurred, It will be lzken advantage of with reference to the Corean expedition. Five shipwrecked Coreans were picked up at sca by the Shantung, one of the Tien-tsin line of steamers, on her last trip down from Tien-tsin. Tuese men have been taken on board the Colorado, Jed, clothed and kindly treated, and will be returned by her to the Corea, their native country. Waile everyting scems so auspicious, and to augur so well for the success of the Corean expedition, Ohinese affairs are in no more promising condition ‘han before. In tact, if the latest advices from Pe- Kin are to be relied on they are becom- ing further from settlement than ever, and Mt seems that the “heathen Chince,” not content with being old foxy and stationary, is even retro grading, as will be seen from the following propost- tions which, it 1s announced on good authority, have been proposed by the Chinese government as the basis of an arrangement that will effectually prevent a repetitron of the Tientsin outrage or any similar outbreaks in future:— Hereafter no communities shall be made to pay | for juries done to misstons by the Chinese, Only | the crimmais who actually commit the violence | shail be punished, No moré compensation for con- Aiscaied property, buildings destroyed or furniture | lost. That ell foreign Women among the missiona- | @ries shail be sent home, their presence being re- garded as mjurious to the peace and retirement of Chinese female society; and no Chinese woman shall be allowed to attend missionary meetings for Chris. tian worship: that misstonariés in the interior or elsewhere, When summoned to the Yamens (ihe Chi- nese tribunals), or have occasion to seek official aid, shall present themselves as patlves do, prostrate on their foreheads, and suall ia all respects con- form to native customs; that if a missionary e3- pouse the cause of a Cnristan convert who is ar- Faigued at law, the native Christiau shall at once be punished as guilt without further trial, be- cause of such futerference. [That is, the in- tercession of his foreign iriend seals his doom @nd procures his punishment even if innocent of the crime he 1s accused of.] That all mis- #ion establisuments shall be under the supervision of oMcers appotated tor the purpose by the Chinese government; that po heatien chiidrea shall attend mission schoois, and that no founding hospi or iris’ schools shali be allowed under any circam Btances: that a public registration shall be kept, in which ali baptisms shall be recorded, with the his. tory, residence aud condition of the subjects of such Wssionary sliall receive { nd, lastly, that Con- fucius shal! not be reviled or tue feelings of his fol- Jowers insulted, Our ardent propagandists at home may see from the above the present prospects of hav- | tog the “shining cross” on every hill and in every valley of the Flowery Kingdom. The fact 1s, the “heathen Chinee" cannot be brought to compre: | ng spirit of Christianity. He . luisown home in the West, ndsandall betiud, and coming here to buy J other productions of the country for e of gail, und he easily understands the such ons because he has feelings in common with them himseii; but that any sane man should abaudon the comtoris of a home, his family aud friends aud all that even the most savage people hoid dear, and spend his Mfe in privation and toil iu a strange land from pure love of the heathen aud sirunger, 18 something utierly above and be. youd his comprenension. Ina word, he don’t be. eve the missionary when he tetls him so, and looks Jurther for some “hidden, secret motive for his juns —for some Indirect gain—as, for instance, by ising some such forbidden arts a3 the Sisters rey at Tieh-tsin were charged with, or some ; boat, but he f | and heveby sider obuodtous to them, which cannot be gain- said. Besides, if Sir Harry were to be appointed, 1 would amount virtually to England goog back to her old policy which was in vogue prior to the advent of Mr. Burlingame— namely, the so-called “determined” policy, which ineaus that the Munster bimself, with what forces he might have at command, should immediately exact redress for any supposed grievance and the government would sustain him, But we doubt Whether Lord Clarendon is as yet satisfied that the Burlingame policy is net the most preferable one, ‘On the other hand, should Mr. Erskme be assigned to this post, it is confidently expected by the more moderate and reasonable portion of the communtiy that he will be able to undo much of the harm that has been caused vy the Buri rogramme, Without following up the fire-eati policy which Would be expecied from Sir Harry Parks. That a change of policy of some sort, however, from that pursued by foreign governments towards the Chinese is necessary can scarcely be doubted. China does pot mean progress in the sense in which we understand the term, but, on the contrary, would to-morrow close all her ports to foreigners if she thought she were able to do 80, You will have doubtiess heard before this reaches you of the new ana darting demands made by China in regard to future intercourse between the natives and outside barbarian Christian missionaries, ma'e and jfemaie. 1t is unnecessary, therefore, to do more than allude to the document as one which closes all Christian schoois, prohibits practically all future conversions and refuses any adequate com- pensation for {future massacres, it 1s said that some of the ministers have already sent in replies, saps Q@nd strenuously rejecting any such proposed amendments; and it is con- fidently believed by not a few well posted foreign residents that China is almost willing to go to war with foreign nations, notwithstanding her bitter bette GC of the past, and is quietly arming for a contest, Another proclamation issued by the Tontal (Gov- ernor) of Sbhaunghae shows that che Chinese are bound, at any rate, to restrict foreigners wo the closest interpretation of treaty privileg2s:— T'n, Inspector of Maritime Customs and Military Tntendant of the Soochow, Sunjkiang and T’alt'sang cireu't, In the pro- Vince of Kiangnan, raise! by brevet ten ‘urades and honora- bly recorded ton times, issues the following proclamation :— Although foreign merchant vessels are allowed to trade at the several treaty ports tt is at the same time expressly stated in the treaties that iu case they go to any other place to carry on clandestine tratlic both vessels aud cargo shall be confireated, ‘The Taota! fs Informed that certain foreign vessels are tempting to take cargo and passengers to Soochow and other places tu the interior, which is a direct violation of weaty The Taoiai fa therefore writing to the foreign als, aking them to investigate the matier and to deal severely with (the offenders).

Mr. Low, in his despatch to Prince | Kung, on account of the threatening attitude of the | Pevpie of Tungchow, used the following emphauic | declaration of peace:— “The tradt “| policy of the United States in their Autercourse with China is peace, which tt is the | earnest desire of the undersigned, as well as his | wmovernipent, to maintain, and nothing will cause @ departure from this policy except the flagrant vio- lation of the riguts and privileges of their citizens by the people, and the failure of the Imperial gov- ernment to apply the proper remedy promptly.” | ‘This Mr. Fish secms to think to be language rather atrongor than was diplomaucally allowable; for he Tep'tes to Mr. Low by saying that “your assurance that a fagrané violation of the rights and privileges | of our citizens by the people, and the failure of the Imperial government to apply the proper remedy promptly, are the only circumstances which will «cause a departure from the traditional policy of the United States In their intercourse with China, is cousidered too strong @p assurance of forbearance, and it world be, pereps, well that Prince Kung should unders'and that any violauion of the rights of our citivens, and any flagrant violation of treaty stipulations of other Powers, may cause a change.

Death of the United States Consul at Yokohama— Particulars of the Loss of the Steamship Yangtzee — Supposed Loss of an American Trading Schooner. YOKOHAMA, April 22, 1871, Lemuet Lyon, United States Consul for Kanagawa, died at the conswar residence, at Yokonama, after @ briel illness, on tne 6th inst., of softening of the brain, Mr. Lyon was originally frem Massachu- setts, and was engaged in business at East Need- ham. In 1849 he Joined the army of pioneers for California, - ere he remained about ten years and then emigrated to Oregon. He was appointed Con- sul for Kanagawa (Yokohama) through the influence of Senator Williams, of Oregon. Soon after nis airival here, which was in July, 1869, he came in coniict with the United States Minister, Mr. Do Long, on account of the well knewn Schuhmann bankrupt case. Mr. Lyon had been accused of great irregularities in this case, and it was through the representations that were made to the State De- partment im regard to the same that he was ultimately removed. Notice of his superse- dure was received here two months ago, and this fact seemed to prey upon him, and, I believe, brought about the iliness from which he died, Mr. Lyon was in many respects a good man, but, truth compels me to say, unfit for the responsi- ble position which he held, Uneducated, unrefined, of strong passions, he was often swayed by the feel- ings of the moment in deciding yery grave cases. It is sincercly to be hoped that hereafter no such man, whatever may be his other ments—and, as before stated, we velieve Mr, Lyon to have been, on the whole, a just man, witha fair amount of com- mon sense—will be sent out here lo occupy a similar oMctal position; but if his political deserts are such as to require recognition some snug berth in the Custom House or other home department will be se- lected for him, Mr. Lyon, being a member of the Masonic order, and holding a very high degree in the same, his re- mains were, at lis own request, taken charge of by the Masonic fraternity of this place, and the highest funeral honors were paid him, His body is to be taken to America on the Great Republic. Colonel Sheppard, who had ulready been con- firmed as Consul for this port, but whose papers had not yet arrived, Look charge of the oilice by virtue of authority from the Minister on the 16th inst. He will probably receive his omicial papers by the next incoming steamer, From his course in Jeddo, where he has resided some two years as Consul, it 4s coniidently expected that the American consulate in Yokohama will at last be occupied by a geutle- man capavie of filling 1t without disgrace to himself or his American feliow citizens, The American steamship Langtzee, Capt. Strand- berg, leit the port of Nagasaki about ten o’ciock P.M. of the 20th of March, with a large cargo of cotton and gael merchandise and several pas- sengers for Hiogo and Yoxohama. About tweive miles from the port she struck upon a rock, which 1s not lai down in any chart, and remained there some time, With the rising of the tide and v; sifting part of her cargo she floated again an Captain Strandberg turned her head back towards Nagasaki; but aiter procediug & short distauce this was found to be impracticavle, as she was making water so fast as to Dut out her fires, He thereiore determined to beach her, which he didi at a place called Oao-saki, Fortua- Dutely the night on which tne accident occurre |, although somewhat dark, was cal and stgriighot, and the passengers and crew Were ali enabled to get of with their baggaze. At first it was hoped that she might studi have been gotten of, and tenders were Invited by the captain for that pur- pose, but it was soon found that she was a hopeless wreck, and she has been avandoned as such, A cou- siderable ameunt of the cargo has beea recovered, but ail in a damaged condition. ‘The Yangtzee was built tu Shanghae by Captain Bachelder, ap American, aud had the ongines of the oid Goveruor General in her, She was a side- wheel steamer of about 500 tous. Captain Strand- berg, who has Ween master of her ever since she Was built, was formerly aa oiiicer in the American navy, aud bas always been esieemed a3 a very eMicient and careful navigator, She was insured ia Shanghae for 60,000 taels (480,000), Tbe American whaler Monticello, which arrived heve on the night of the Sin inst, brought us pews of the provable loss of the American schooner Julia, Captain Burdick, wiich left here in the latter part of October last fora trading cruise among tne isiands o! the Pactilc, Tue Julia had arrived at Seypan about the middle of November, and on the night of the 29th left that island with the mtention of going to Guam, seventy miles distant, but up to the eud of March sue hai not becn heard from. Cap+ tain Williams, of the Monticello, and Captain Bliven, of the Elizabeth Swift, also an American whale ship, inform me that, on the night that te Julia left Sey- pan, a terrible typhoon arose, which wa3 so severe that the people on shore hat to throw themseives on the ground to avoid being carried away by the force of the wind. It is suppose: that the Julia was. lost that night, Both whaling ships stopped at several islunds on their way up here, but could gain no intelligence of the littie vessel. There is a bare possibility that the typhoon blew her so much out of her cow that she was driven entirely away from that vicinity and that she may still be mm, but the masters of the ves- sels above meutioned say there 3 but very little hope ut, as the typhoon was so severe that Very lew ve: could possibly tive in it, How- ever, itis not long since, says the Japan Herald, that (ue crew o1 an Bnglish nobleman’s yacht, two years missing and of course given up for ‘lost, turnea up in Sydney, having been taken off an island but seldom frequented by a Whaler, It is ainly not without the bounds of possibility tat certa the people in the Juila may have similar good tor- tune, Besides the crew, which were ull Manila mien, there were the following Europeans on board:— Captaia Burdick, First Oulcer Behrens, H.

The Political Situstion im Arkanras—The Secretary of the Democratic Central Com- mittee Overhauls Senator Clayton. Litrie R cx, Ark,, May 15, 1871. To THE Eviror OF THE HERALD:— Some weeks ago you published under !mposing nd sensational headings the speech of Senator Clayton, of Arkansas, delivered at Washington city Just previous to the adjournment of Congress on the occasion of a serenade given to the Senator by the “Soldiers and Sailors of the District.” ‘The impression sought to be made py that speech is thata Ku Klux organization exists in Arkansas, that it numbers 30,900 members, 1s under the aus- pices and control of the democratic party, and that it has for its object the assassination of Union men, and that it ts guilty of all sorts of crimes and out rages, ‘The Senator e#ays, a8 reported by you, that “if one-half alone of tne outrages that nave been perpetrated there (Im Arkansas) were known to the law-abiding citizens of the nation such acry of indignation would go up through the land as would bring a blush of shame even to the cheeks of the Northern democracy, and public opinion would compel them to cease their mis- erable efforts to palliate and excuse the commission of the most horrid crimes and glaring outrages thas ever disgraced humanity.” Now, sir, to disprove the foul calumuy uttered against a people py one who should take a pride in maintaining their good name before the world, I pro- pose to “appeal from Philp drunk to Philip sober.” The above utterances were made by Powell Clayton in the city of Washinzton, when, to secure the wiil- ing ear and good graces of the radical party, he was willing to debasehis manhood by slandering and ca- lumniating the people whom he affects to represent in the United States Senate for the corrupt purpose and with the selfish hope of securing the nomina- Uon for the Vice Presidency on the radical ticket for ‘ir. contrast the foregoing with the following utterances made by that same Poweil Ulayton just three months ago, when he was Governor of Arkan- sas and fishing for an election to the United States Senate. I quote as follows from his “Biennial Mes- sage, delivered to the General Assembly of Arkansas ou the 2d day of January, 1371; aud to convince you that 1 do not misrepresent him I forward you herewith the officially printed copy of his said ne: » On that occasion he spoke as follows: “You assemble ere under very propitious circum. stances, The past year has been one of great pro3- perity, The crops have been abundant, &c. The spirit of pubiic improvement has awakened the livenest interest among our people, &c. Our popula- tion has been largely increased, &c. The wealth of the State has beea augmented, &c, Onr Stat» credif has been established, &c. Our relations with the federal govern- ment are harmonious and satisfactory; law and order, peace and security reign throughout our bor- ders, Under the benign Infiuence of our free insti- tutions and the faithtul enforcement of the laws old feuds are rapidly dying out, old animosities are being forgotten and old prejudices eradicated.” (Pp, 3, 4.) Again, said Governor Clayton in that message (pp. 21, 22), alluding to the sudject of removing political ities:—“I have always regarded disiranchise- ment as temporary in Its nature, and have anxiously looked forward to tae day when a sounder and heaithier condtuon would justify 1ts removal. More than a year ago (October, 1869) 1 took occasion (in a public Speech at the Capitan to puolicly express my- sch upon tnis guestion, then foreshadowed tae course that 1 should pursue, provided = the then peaceful and feaithy condition of avars in the State should continue and give evidence of permanency, The time which has intervened (filteen months) has only streugthened the convictions | then expressed, and lam now most happy to say that the present en- couraging condition of aifairs throughout the State, 4a my opinion, fully warrants me in carrying out the pledge | they made.’ That pledge was tliat he would recommend to the Legislature a@ bill to repeal the distranchising ciauses of the constitution— which was done, Now, Mr. Editor, as one who 1s willing to do justice to all mon, and espegially to the poor, ariicted, downtrodden States of the South, wuo have so few champious and decenders at the North, tell me how do the utterances of Powell Clayton, Governor of Arkansas, made at the capital of hs State in January, 1871, compare with the utterances of Powell Clayton, United States Senator, made at tue national capital in April of the same year y Now, sir, ougit not this plain statement of tacts convince the intelligent, candi, fair-minded people of the North that there 1s no confidence whatever to be placed in the statements and declarations of the miserable bop bin! radicals who affect to speak for the South and in the interests and beha'f of the Southern people? Does not this Powell Clayton, though occupying the high position of a seut in the United Staies Senate, convict himself not only of mendacity, but of the (if possible) more disaonor- abie act of slandering, defaming and calumniating the people and the State whom he pretends to re- present in the natioual Congress? Can you, can any honorable, high-minded Northern man, conceive of @ mole dishonorable aud ignobie act than that of the national representauve of State defaming the character of a State and peo- ple he represents by false and slanderous state- ments, charges and inuendoes’ How are the Soarth- ern States to be fairly represented before the nation and the world when they are thus represented uy men who reaort even to bold-faced fying to mis- represent and malign thein ? Sir, Lsay on my individual authority, and I dare and defy any man to deny it, that there never has been a Ku Klux ontrage of any kind committed in this State at any time that conld by any possibility of means be fastened upon any organized associa- tion of men, or in any manner attributed to the authority or connivance of the democratic party. I Isay, fthermore, and defy contradiction of that assertion, thas since the Presidential campaign ol 1863 there has not been the slightost disturbance or even barroom fracas anywhere in this State that could by any possibility of means be attribuled to or connected with political feelings or considerations. Tne condition of this State is now, and has been since the elec- Uons of 1863, one of profound and uninterrupted peace, quiet and good order, and this we are ready and prepared to maintain and prove before any tri- bunal. The ony wrongs and outrages that have been perpetrated are those of radical frauds in tie late State elections, which, thougn unparalleled in the history of any people. have been patiently and quietly submitted to by the democrats and conserva- tives, aud which are now being investigated in the federal courts of the State. Sir, in justice to our poor afflicted State and oppressed and downtrodden people, groaning under the iron heel of radical despotism and hen and for the sake of Justice and truth, ope you will publish this feeble vindication of the peopie of Arkansas against the unjust and slanderous attacks of our radical Senator Powell Clayton. Yours, respoctiully, THOMAS ©. PEEK, Secretary of the Democratic and Conservative State Ceutral Commitiee of Arkansaa. —— RUNNING NOTES—POLITICAL AND GENERAL.

Arrest ef Oue of tie Boston Boylston Bank Breakers in Now York—He Whimpers in His Own Behalf—The Bail Placed at $50,000. Boston, May 20, 1871. One fine morning, in the fall of 1869, the clerks in the Boylston Bank came in for the usual routine of daily business, and found that the vault had ‘been penetrated from a room in the rear, and nearly all the funds of the institution taken away. Some five hundred thousand dollars were taken alvogether, and @ considerable portion of the ab- stracted funds belonged to private individuals, who had left them in the bank for sate- keeping. No reward was offered for the apprehen- sion of thé robbers beyond a percentage on the amount of the stolen money which might be recov- ered, and tue bank declined to enter into this ar- rangement, The other victims, however, guaran- teed ten per cent on all they could get back, and with this understanding detectives went to work, and now, after two years, they have managed to Make a single arrest, The party whom they have taken Into custody is Wm. A. Glover, of New York, ‘They arrested him in that city yesterday morning, Just as he was leaving his house, hustled him into a close carrlage, and drove off with him before he could give notice to his friends, Fearing from his resistance that he would give an alarm and by that meaus escape them, the officers had the driver take them for two hours through the Central Park and surroundings, untit about the time for the train to Stars on the Shore line for Boston, when the car- riage was driven to the depot, and the prisoner put on board the cars and brought to this city, arriving here at nine o’clock, when he was at once taken and locked up in the Fourth station. On his person were found $514 in money and @ gold watch and chain, but nothing, of course, to implicate him in the robe bery of the bank, This morning the prisoner was arratgnea in the Superior Court for complicity in the robbery before the Tact, he having been indicted by the Grand Jury previous to his arrest, He way bound over in the sum of $20,000, Which was afterwards tncreased to $50,000, ‘The District Attorney, in his motion for an Increase of bail, briefly stated the circumstances of the robbery, which comprised money and ponds to the amount of from $300,000 to $500,000, He had reason tv believe from proofs in his possession that this man sold nearly $100,000 of the stolen bonds in New York. It was with the greatest dimicuity that the officers had been able to get the prisoner from New York, negotiations to that end having been going on between the Governors of Massachusetts aud New York, and between him (Mr. May) and District At- torney Garvin, of New York city. Mr. May further stated that he understood the puecree had a large property in his own name in real estate, and he was convinced that the $20,00) bonds under which he had been held was a mere bagateile, which could be easily furnished by his accomplices or their friends, He then desired the court to increase the amount to the sum equal to that stolen. In reply to this Glover said that he never was in Boston but once in his life, and taay was two years ago, and that he stopped at the Parker House at the ume, He thea made an appeal to the sympathies of the istrict Attorney and the Court. One of tus fights was:—*I beg of you not to persecute me in this way. Let it mot bo said that Massa. chusetts, the first to resist the encroachments, oppressious and persecutions of a loreign country in its resentment Of the Stamp act, thus persecuted an innocent and an unfortunate stranger, Who was ready to meet any charge which might be brought against his character.’? In regard to his property, he said he had a house which he bought for $12,000, on which there was now a large mortgage, and he had just written to his friends to save it if possible, He did not think he could get even $20,000, bat might possibly do so. He again denied ever being in Boston but once, and that he had nothing to do with the crime charged against him; in this calling God to witness vViat ne told the trath. The Court then increased the ball to $50,000, re- marking that it could be reduced if sultictent reason was shown hereatter. ‘THE AFFAAY AT PATERSON, The Nearo, Gil Day, Still Living, but His Case Hopeless—What the Prieoner, Floyd, Says. Coutrary to the predictions of the physicians and the expectations of all who were acquainted with the circumstances of the bloody affray of Saturday in Paterson, the negro, Gil Day, was still alive yes- terday morning, and apparently better. He could, however, take no nourishment during the day, and ‘was growing weaker and declining perceptibly last evening. The physician still maintains that his re+ covery is impossibie, as the back part of the skull is crushed in, and a Jarge piece of the bone is pushed inwards upon the brain. ‘The only thing that can be done is trepanning, but even that, the surgeons think, will staud as much chance of resulting 1m immediate death as it would a possible recovery, and in the latter event it Is feared permanent lunacy will be the result. As yet, no operation has beca performed. ‘The Recorder, Judge Warren, together with the Chief of Police, yesterday called upon the wounded negro to take his statement, but he was not abie to speak anything excepting monosyilables, anu the effort had to be abandoned. The perpetrator of the deed, Richard Floyd, is sately confined in jail, He 1s @ single man and has been but four or five weeks in Paterson, having comefrom Haverstraw, N. Y. He has not much to say regarding the aifray, except that he had no idea of killing the negro, but merely to punish him for his insoleace, THE LATE SENTIMENTAL SUIGiCE. New York,’ May 21, 1871.
