15th Aug. Tne Foreign Powers having treaties with China have unanimously determined to support Great Britain in the demands formulated and presented to the ''sungli Yamen by Sir John Walsham, and they are decided that Hunan shall be opened, and shall cease to be the fount of the anti-foreign publications which do so much to poison the minds of the Chinese people. If these demands are not granted promptly and fully, force is to be used, and for this purpose it is probable that Great Britain will receive the mandate from all the Powers to execute their decision. No non possumus is to be accepted, no trifling or prevarication will be allowed. The Powers have determined that the cales safeguard-where me China—Hutan' ineludeding foreign life and property every-
shall be fully and honestly observed will not be able to disregard.
