VED-GREAT EXCITEMENT in SoASE-
NCE-SETTLEMENT OF TIE CHI


NESE QUESTION.


The britannia arrived at the wharfat 2 o clock
Thursday morning last. She left Liverpool on
the goth, and has made the passage in about iif-
teen days and half She experienced very rough
weather during nearly the whole passage.


THE STEAMSHIP PRESIDENT HAD
NOT ARRIVED, and the excitement and ankle
ty in consequence past all description
There was lingering hope that she had put into
Fayal, but this of course must be soon dlsslpated


The most important item of news by this arrl-
val is the settlement of the Chinese question:
The terms of the treaty appear to be the same as
first demanded by Admiral Elliot; namely, the
payment of the $4,000, 900 indemnity, and the
permanent occupation of the island OF Chnsan.-
As necessary consequence, tea had falleh III
price.


At meeting of the East India Association,
letter was addressed to Nscount Palnefston re-
monsrating in strong terms against the arrange
ments entered into by Captain Elliot and the
Chinese government. They affect TO believe that
the prominent conditions of the treaty are ealeu-
lated to degrade the British character IN the eyes
of other nations and that it provides neither that
indemnity for the past Or security ior the future
which the country had right to expect


The excitement on the subject OF Mcleod
Imprisonment had mostly subsded, but the Brit
ish press, gathering new courage from the Virtu-
al submission Of China, was arrogant as ever TO-
wards this country,


Commodore Charles Napier, whose exploits by
flood and field have filled the world with his
fame, was entertained by the inhabtants OF Law
erpool with public dinner at the amphitheatre
on the evening of the 10th.

THE PRESIDENT.


We lament to say that no intelligence has yet
been received Of this unfortunate vessel. he
arrival of the royal mail steamer Caledonia, on
Thursday morning, from Boston and HailiaX, DIS
spated the hopes which had been previously en-
tertaned, that she would bring news OF the ms
sing vessel having put INTO some Nova Escot!an
or United States port. Neither at Halifax on
the 4th inst nor at New York the 3lst ult.
had any tidings been heard Of her; and the
friends of the passengers on board were IN happy
ignorance that any misfortune had beiallen her.
From the interval which had elapsed between
her sailing igom New York and the date OF the
advces from that port by the Caledonia, twenty
days, it is evident, that, if she survived the ei#'#
Of the storm on the 18th and 18th ult., she muat
have made for some Southern port. A first, an
opinion was, that she would make for The West
crn isles but, if she had sufficient time has 1t IS
supposed, elapsed for the news of her arrival at
Fayal, reaching England. The first opinion form
ed has, therefore, been abandoned Tor second,
which is, that she would, after repairing the dam





damage, of some kind or other, it is quite clear
she must have sustaned0 make for Bermuda :
Now, the latest advees received, in the United
States from that island were Of the goth ult.
so that a sufficient time had not then elapsed tor
her arrival at Bermuda, even should the c9nlec-
ture turn out correct that she made Tor that port
after the storm.


Captain Fayrer, who commanded the President
IN her first voyage, hazards, in letter 10 friend
in Liverpool, dated on the 18th inst, the follow
ing coniectures respecting the probable course
Captain Roberts would follow under the circom-
stances supposed in the letter. The gallant cap
tain takes, it will be seen, consolatory view OF
very distressing occurrence


g No President yet Rather awkward II
she lost her rudder, which think most probable,
on the Bank of Newfoundland in lat. 10 n, and
Ion. 80 W, she would be distant from Bermuda
about one thousand miles. The gale at NV. or
w. would prevent the possibility OF getting either
10 New York or Halifax. Bermuda would be the
place if so, would give her three days after the
gale to fix a temporary rudder. Having sailed
on the 18th she would be in the position
above in five or six days; so that, with the three
days fitting the rudder, &c she would be on the
Bank still on the 9Th day. or the 18th OF March.
Then Captain Roberts would run down to the
latitude and longitude below 80 and Do w, till IN
the parallel of Bermuda, so as to be IN the eddy,
east Of the Gulf Stream, then hard up west for
Nii''''S
iatitudes particularly after gale, cams are com
mon, so give him, from the 10TH fourteen days
to get to Bermuda. This would be on the I'd or
Sd of pril. Say they get in on the Sd, give
Lord Lennox and Power, two days TO get ready
schooner, five days to Philadelphia, three days
to Halifax ten daus would make it the 18th
18th of April before they could be heard of from
Bermuda, according TO my notion, even If she
could be at Bermuda from the Bank III the time
allow They may have been seen by many
vessels, but have have had too much experience
in The inatteatioa of small craft on the coast Of
America they care for nothing bot themselves
give till the 25th of this month TO hear from
Bermuda, unless some vessel is despatched by the
Government of that island, as the mail packet
calling is very uncertain.


r lost my rudder off the Cape of Good Hope,
in the Lady Flora, and fitted another after my
own plan and made nm excellent voyage to ST,
Helena. Captain Roberts is a sharp fellow, mud
will do the best under any difficulties. It Is my
opinion, strongly so, that the President VIII turn
into Bermuda


TURKEY AND EGYPT.


Letters from Constantinople, dated the 9ith
ult., state that general CONSERVATION prevailed
in that capital, in consequence of several couriers
having arrived there with dispatches announcing
that the whole country about Diabekir was in
state of insnrrection. The military had been dis
armed, the civil authorities put to death, and the
dissolution of the osman monarchy proclaimed
by the rebel tribes. The report was spread in
Diabekr. that the Russians had set fire to the I'm
perial Palace at Constantinople and blown up the
Seraolio the walls and towers ofthe CITY, togeth-
or with the fleet, :he army, the Sultan and the
