DIP&IITANT INTELLIGENCE FBOH CHINA.

and (binfse.
THE PROBABLE BLOCKADE OF CANTON,
&?ii ii(i| i C>
The fine clipper ship Panama, Capt. GriBwold,
arrived yesterday from Canton, whence ghe
a tiled on the 14th of December. She made the
passnga in the shoit epace of eighty-six days
Sue w: s ten daya 'o Anglers, thirty-nine thence
to the Cups of Good Hope, and thirty-sevt.il
thetice to New Vork.
We are indebted to Captain Griswold for liis
attentions.
The intelligence is of n very deplornble character.
There hro bloody indications of another
war between Enoland and Cliiiia
The Chin's* hud butchered in tho ir.ost shockr.g
and cruel manner six Englishmen, who hud
gone a short distance into the interior.
Sir John Divis, the Governor of ILmg Kong,
had arrived at Canton, and demanded from tho
Chinese government the fullest redress for tli"
outrages committed; but no satisfaction having
been received, a consultation of the officers wa*
held, and they had partly concluded to blockade
Canton. The force,however, was not sufficient
The murders were committed on the 5th of
December, on the opposite aide of the river.
When captured, two were murdered on the
spot, and lour put to death shortly after.
Two Brit:sli steamers were ordered to proceed
as far up the river as practicable, in order that
they may be in rendineea to blockade as Boon as
determined upon.
We give the fullest details of the intelligence,
from tlia China pipers. We also annex an extract
from a letter, for which we are indebted to
the kindness of a gentleman of this city

Albany, March 10,1848.
Affairs in Albany.
Snow began to fall yesterday a' 2 P.M., and
this morning the avenue to Troy is crowded
with pnii horses and p ivate horses, all narnesseil
to elegant sleighs of the costliest description.
The bonny upper ten?the exquisite upper ten?
was never more numerously represented than
this morning ; and aa they glided by in their
gilded cutters, we remarked that the music o^
the sleigh bells was not half so loud' nor half so
sweet as tTie musicsl voices of the belles in the
sleighs.
A bill of an important character, which seems
to have been drawn with a view to establish a
liberal and permanent compromise between railroad
companies and landowners, was introduced
into th<* house yetterdiy, by Mr. E C. Bene
dict,,ot Nf.'v York. It is a general hill, which
has been matured aftrr an immense! deal of reflection
and digcuwf ion; and it embodies provisions
for the guidance of railway companies,
in purchasing routes for the construction
of their roada. It is perfectly well known thet
the ops-rations of the Hudson River Railroad
Company, in the construction of th"ir road,have
been materially obstructed in consequence ot
the annoyances and delays to which they hav;nem
subjected by the owners of the lands over
which they design to construct their road.
It 13 obvious that if a general law was in existence,
prescribing the terms upon which this
company and others should be empowered to
enter upon and take possession of lands, all
these vexatious delays and expensive law suits
would have been avoided. It is hoped that the
act which has just been introduced, will fully
meet the case, and that it will be satisfactory to
all. It provides tiiut no. less^than twenty-five
stockholders, who hive shown their confidence
in any railway which they may propose to construct,
by subscribing not less than $1000 for
each mile ot the whole road, and paying 111 ten
per cent of their subscriptions, may orga- j
,nize and incorporate themselves to make
"the roiid. It these stockholders can procure n
right of way, by negotiation with the owners of
the lands over which they propose to build their
road, they may proceed to build it ; but if not,
then, before the road is commenced, all parties
shall be heard before tiie Supreme Court on the
question whether there is sullicient public necessity
for tuking private property. Before commencing
the road, the stockholders will be required
to pay into the hands of the Comptroller
live p>r ccut on their capital subscribed, as a
fund for the payment of damages to land ownt-rs.
It says iurtliT, that the company shall make
progress within two years from its organization,
ana complete the road within six years from
that tint-; that they shall furnish accommodations
to the lull extent of thepublic wants,carrying
the public mails, and ail private citizens and
freight, and that they shall be subject to the continual
control of the legislature, and shall make
an annual report of their condition to the State
I Enmneer and Surveyor.

Mr. Clay and Mrs. Polk.?We find the following
well-told anecdote in the Western Continent.
of Saturday " It Is doub'Ues known fo cur re?ders,
that shortly before li's departure from Washington,
Mr Clay attended a dinner p'lriy, with many other dl?tingulthed
gentlemen of beth Critical parties, at the
President's house. The party Is said to have buen a
ery pleasant affair?the viands were choi je, the wine
wis old and sparkling-g"od feeling abounded, and wit
and lively rep .rtn gave x 'St to the oeoasicn; white Mrs
Polk, the winning nud accomplished liosw-rs. auded th*
finishing gracA of her excellent housewifery in the superior
management of the f*ast. Mr Clay wus of cournc
hooored with a Seat, r io*r th't President's lady, ??h?ro it
beoamn him to pu', In requisition those insinuating talents
which he po*??-nfs m so eminent a decree. and
which are Irresistible, even to his enemie*. Mrs. Pcik,
with her usual frank and affable manner. was extremely
courteous to her distinguished gu?s , whoie good opinion,
as of all who s\ier? the hoepiialltlss of th? White
llfiuae.ene ma mi mil 10 win
" Medem,'" said Mr Clay, lo th?t bl?"d manner p?oullar
to himself, " I must s?y, that in mr trayels, wherever
I hare b?e n, In *11 oojipinlrs and *mon?all purlins
Ihare hi*rl but ens opia 01 of jou. AU a*r?s In

But," contlnned he. directing her attention to her ba*
band, ' as for that youeg g-ntlrman there, I ntnnot say
as much Th?r? Is," said b?, ' ?<>m? little dlffervnos of
optoloa in regard to the polio; of bin course "
" Ind'ed." said Mrs Polk," I sn gUd to hear that my
administration Is popular And in return for your oormpllmynt,
I will say, that If the country should eleot ?
whig next fall, I know of no on* whose #l station would

' Thauk jou?thank you, maJatn."
" And I w.ll as?u:? yea of on* tolng-lf you do h?Te
oacsslon to occnpy the White House on the fourth of
Mareh nuxt, It shull be surrendered to you In perlsa:
order, from narret to oellar.".
" I'm oertaln that "
But the laugh that followed this pleasant repartee,
whloh lest notnlag trom the manner nor theooaaslon if
It, did not permit the auests at tbe lower end of tbe
table to heir t,be rest cf Mr Clay's reply. Whether he
was certain that he shonld be til* tenant of tbe resident's

that rhoarer old occupy It would find II In good condition,
like the result of the ooming contest for the Trssl- 1
