CooKTOwir, November 10. The following Items of later Chinese news are taken from files to hand per 8. Timor up to the 21st October :— Reportfl from Tonquin Btate that the French gunboat Mossue, while going up the Lochnau River, wfls attacked by the Chineee, who were lying Ifl atnbueh. In attempting to swing, the vessel got aground, and became a target for the Chinese rifles. Captain Challier was shot'dead, his head being pierced, while 21 of the crew and 10 marines were wounded. The gunboat was rescued by the Haichee and Mosquito. This occurred on 3rd Oc tober. Oeneral do Negrier proceeded at once ftotn Hanoi to f hu Lang Thuong in the Caratfne", tfH the available infantry being gent overland ait tfefe eaipe time to Bacninh, taking up there some fflorft spare troops. In the meanwhile 400 European sofdiefs, under Colonol Kaulieng, and two compaini*s of Tonquin Trailieurs, were despatched in' the gunboat Eclair, accompanied by two or three smaller gunboats, to enter the Lochnau In order to prevent a junction by way Of ihitt river between the Chinese on the Hongsatn Roadj -who bad formed a line .of defence on Song Thuong and those about Dongtrien, whose line" of defence was on the Lochnau. When General de Negrier arrived at the point where the Moesue was attacked, he attempted a landing, but when about half his force was landed they were attacked by about 3,000 Chinese. The French dis embarkation was completed tinder cover of the gunboat, and e»vere fighting ensued, lasting fttHy six Jhour«, from ten in the morning to four in the afternoon. The Chinese were driven feac* with a loss of about 1,000 killed. The FrCnCb hie in cluded 1 officer killed and 6 wounded, and 0 tnon killed and 26 wounded. The French had floa*tttleiy wi:h thetfr, ivhile the Chinese had Krupp #f&sY firing double uhell full of grape shot. They oaftceeded tn carrying them all off. The Chinese mKde a good stand, and charged several times. The Tonquin Trailleura were utterly useless, and a large number of them ran sway during ths fight. General Negrier left Phu Lang Thliohg on the 7th October, the day. after the engageifleflt) with about 3,000 men. They marched nlcrtig 8 dreary narrow road to Hangswon. Ofl their approach to Ban Loch, the Chmeso head quarters, tbe Chinese forces withdrew to wards Hong Kep, the French following. Next morning they encountered there about 6.U00 Chinese regulars, who had fortified the position. This force made some violent attacks on the French, but were continually driven back tfith heavy losses. After five hours' hard-fighting ih^ Chinese fled and disbanded towards l)ao QaSS, being cut off from China by the Lan Son roaC They left with the French all their stores, as Well as horses and mules. The Chinese losses in thißbattleareestimatedat2,ooo. The French lost Captain Pbante, a young officer recently promoted, and fifty men, while ei^ht officers and twenty men are returned ac wounded. Among the wounded are General Negrier and his aide-de-camp. The general has a bullet wound through his ankle. The French were bravely led on, and Oeneral Negrier and his officers were complimented by the Corcfmander-in Chief. The former has returned to Aptiah fat medical treat ment; He was replaced by General Briare de Lisle, who pursued the Chinese towards the Lochnau, forming a junction 'with Colonel Danlier on the 10th. They found the Chineee at Thion strongly entrenched in pita protected by earthworks. '■. The enemy made desperate efforts to retake , their lost position, but the French, having put their ordinance in position,: repulsed them with heavy loss, driving them back to the mountains. ~

THE LATE JAMES JOHNSTONE.

Dear Sib,—Enclosed please find •supple mentary and final list of moneys kindly given by friends towards the support of. the orphans of the lato James Johnstone, and both Mr Oswald and myself desire to thank all who have ao liberally come forward, in time 'of meed. We: would, at -the same time, thank you for the use of your columns. Enclosed is a letter we have received from a former em ployer of Mr James Johustone, which Mr» Oswald and my self would feel grateful if -you would publish, as it is a reply to many questions asked by various people as to the antecedents of Johnstone.—l am, &c, ► i i. Samueb Ooombks. Copy of Memorandum from Mr John Clarke | Adams, Draper and Outfitter, Armagh, ; Beptember26,'lßßl. " ; >' To Mr I(. G. Oswald, Auokland— J Sir,—l am sorry {or the death ot James John-; stone. It he,was the person I.knew, ho waa a tall, aliffht man, nearly 6 teet, ot a very .juiet; retiring habit of mind, but was very much respected here. Heleorned business in Monagban With my father. He went to India as a soldier during the mutiny. After the peace' he came home, and .as he was unemployed. he got a vacancy with me. He.lived here some years, and gave us satisfaction. He left here of his own will and aeainat our wish. I Bent the paper, and I wrote to his father. Mr Samnel Johntt^ne, of Emyvale Co., Monaghan. He is a practical miller, and rents a mill at Emyvale, which he works for hire on the farmers' grain, and does not require much capital, and if James has left any money behind him, the father would reqaire it, as he haß reared a large family respectably upon a Bmall salary.—lam, with respect, yours obediently.

f The innovations in the shape of hymnals and instrumental music in the Free Church are greatly alarming the ministers and office bearerßofthatCliurchinthenorthern counties of Scotlahd. At a meeting of Free Church elders recently held in Dingwall, Ross shire, a series of resolutions condemnatory of such innovations were passed, some ■of the ma/ers thereof pointing out the extreme danger, of anything unacriptural being allowed to be introduced ' into public worship. It was suggested that a larger and more representative meeting should be he,ld at Inverness, the capital of the High lands, and that anti-innovation associations be formed in every congregation, and, moreover, that. the constitution of the Church and the disruption principles of 1843 be adhered to at all hazards. A dominant majority, composed principally of Southern ministers and elders in the Free Churoh, were not to be allowed to have their own way in the Church. A day of separation might come between the faith ful followers of the Church and the present majority, * , CATARRH OF THE BLADDER—Sllnging iniu Uon, Inflammation »UKidney &ud I—attar ComUxi-u, cuiM bj 'Mtartm-inlla."
