A Corer MARTIAL WU last week held at Ports mouth, which painfully recalls to recollection the very wont periods of our naval service. The facts of the case are, ss usual ou such oceasiaos, somewhat imper fectly reported, but enough appears to show that a great and scandalous wrong has lx en done, which ought not to be permitted to rest where the Ad miralty has left it, in the simple private reprimand of the offender. The pries:Mß wan Mr. Hcoo BIAITNONT First Lieutenant of her Manscr's ship Juno, which has recently returned from the Pacific and Australia, and the prosecutor wan Captain S. C.

The mead= sat of which the first charge nesse to have bees one of those entertaiams hoard the Juno, by which British officers endeavour to repay the courtesies and civilities they receive from British colonists when in colonial ports. The Juno's visitors, among whom were several ladies, were being regaled with a nautical theatrical repre sentation, when the evening's amusements were cut short by Captain FREMANTLE ordering the ship to be cleared. Lieutenant BtLYABr executed this ex traordinary and sudden order with all the speed that attention and consideration for the ladies permitted —so much so, that there is no imputation against him that the Captain's directions in this respect, however unnecessary and disagreeable, were not obeyed as became the First Lieutenant of the ship. The order was given by Captain FREMANTLE in his own cabin, when only himself and Lieutenant Boa- PAST were present and Captain FRIMASTLE charges the Lieutenant with contempt towards his commanding officer " by performing an impertinent and provoking action." What the alleged action was, is neither stated, nor did it appear on the trial. Lieutenant BURNABY, however, pledged his honour as an officer and a gentleman to the Court Martial that he committed no act of impropriety ; and he is, we shall see, entitled to fall credence. This occurrence took place on the 27th March, 1838. On this pretence Captain FREMANTLE ini sediately placed his First Lieutenant under arrest ; and in arrest Lieutenant BURNABY remained until the 23rd November, 18.57, when he appeared a pri soner before the Court Martial assembled on board the St. Vincent, in Portsmouth Harbour. During these eighteen months, wherein Lieutenant BUR NABY was suspended from the performance of his duties, held up to the odium of his ship and brother officers, and deprived of personal freedom, Captain litinUltrin managed to get up three other charges gauss him, all of a frivolous and vexations kind ; and ea thsee four charges he wan brought to trial. 1 Of coarse Captain FRILMANYLI was, or ought to have been, the principal witness. He had preferred the charges, and presented himself as prosecutor baton the Court Martial. On being directed by the President to state to the Court what he knew about Or emirs, the following extraordinary and painful sum tea place : Owlli romeade-1 ham asetlag. lum perms& dr, eft per riles, to obriles th poomotios.

The came proceeded, other witnesses was called, but the anticipated "by and by" did not come round, Captain FRLYANTLE preserved the silence he thus inaugurated, and Limit. BURNABY was com pelled to make his defence without bearing the pro secutor utter one word against him. Ile made it with complete amens, and, so far as it was possible, he supported his own personal statement with evidence. The result was the following finding by the Court Martial : The Court argnits the prisoner, and further esprensta iY opinion that the evidence before it does not show infeeient pomade for preferring each charges against the geld Lieutenant, roma of whirl, are of so eerione a nature, And this was all! Out of the Juno, under Captain FIEMANILeS command, two other Courts Martial hate been held " on officers," the report stated, " who had long been " imprisoned in their cabins, as it were, and suspended " from all duty, and nearly from intercourse with " their measmates." One of these charges also came to nothing, and the other ended only in a reprimand. " But," added the reporter representing the naval feeling and experience of Portsmouth, " it is pies tionable whether the Captain, who is so powerfully " connected, will receive any censure from the Ad " miralty." No doubt "powerful connexions" have great influence at the Admiralty,as when, for example, the Honourable Captain PELEIAM was the other day made a Lord of that precious Board, he was instantly succeeded in the command of the Blenheim by the Honourable Captain ammo—but there is a decency which not even " powerful connexions" can venture to trespass ; and in this came of Captain FREMANTLE, which ontrivals any of the scenes de scribed by ISMOLLETT in " Roderick Random," the Admiralty has actually ventured to "reprimand" : this man of " powerfal connexions." The public, with whom such connexions have no influence, will probably think that for such an offence as Captain FREMANTLE committed a reprimand is a wholly insufficient punishment; and the public in so thinking will oome to a perfectly sound conclu sion.

The Rents left off at 67fr. 65c. for account, and 67fr. for cash, with a rise of 20c. and 10c. The Orleans, Northern, and Lyons railways, rose 126. 50c. each, and the other lines from 7fr. to 6fr.

I deeply . regret to state that the gloomy picture gave you in the postscript of my letter yesterday was far from being exaggerated, and from what has this morning come to my knowledge, I have reason to say that the Hamburg Exchange is seized with a perfect panic, which is spreading in wider and wider circles, as fresh failures are announced, and the oldest and most respectable houses are compelled to give way to the force of circumstances, and stop pay ment. Numbers of houses are inextricably involved, without the slightest fault of their own, but from bills unexpectedly returned protested fro m abroad, or the unforeseen failure of houses here, unable to pay their acuptances, on which the holders of the bills had calated. Business being completely at a standstill, the natural consequence is the stopple of many de ' ecriptiens of factories, the sudden discharge of great numbers of workmen, and the reaction of the panic on the lower classes. It will, therefore, not surprise your readers to hear thatduring the last few days there has been a run on the savings -banks, which not being prepared with ready money for such an emergency, have been obliged to make all sorts of shifts to obtain money, though unsuccessfully. The depo sitors who belong to the uneducated classes are not able to comprehend that their little capitals are per fectly safe, being invested in first-rate mortgages, but give way to their fears which are contagions among their friends and neighbours, who take it up and carry the panic farther and thus praises a state of horror - stricken anarchy, threatening . to dis solve all social ties and subvert all principles of civil order and legal authority. In this manner the runs on the savings banks were for considerably more than a million of dollars, and accompanied by such furious conduct, wild excitement, and oppro brions language, that a strong body of the police force were not able to restore order and allay the fears of the multitude. The fifteen millions of Exchequer Bills ordered to be created for the purpose of affording relief to merchants in temporary difficulties, have failed in their intended object, as they were completely ex hausted on the very first day, when the applications for sums to be advanced on the security of =perish ' able merchandise and Government Bonds amounted to several hundreds of millions. Our merchants have therefore petitioned the Senate to convene the Bur gerochaft again for the purpose of further extending the benefits to be derived from this salutary meg ' sure by increasing the amount of Exchequer Bills Ito at least a hundred millions of Marks Banco. The Senate is at this moment holding an extraordinary sitting to deliberate on the propriety of acceding to the suggestion. It is also proposed to suspend for the present that paragraph of the regulations in force here with respect to bills of exchange, which empowers the holder of a bill, in case of the failure of the acceptor, I to demand security from the lad endorser for the eventual payment of the bill. This paragraph is already a dead letter and virtually abrogated, as in the present excited state of our Exchange, no one can give or obtain security of any description at all. P.S.—Four o'elook.—The excitement on 'Change today was worse than ever. The panic may be said, to be general. A large number of fresh failures were announced, amongst whom are the firms of Sieve king and Co., Lozent Am Ende and Co., Lomer Uhde and Co., F. van Leesen, and C. M. S— and Co. The head of the latter house is a member of the Senate and connected by family ties with the first families of this city. The great Swedish house of Ullberg and Cramer, which was in difficulties more than a week ago, but obtained assistance from the Bank of Stockholm and even from an exalted personage in Sweden, has notwithstand ing been unable to resist the pressure, and is swept into the vortex. Mr. L —n, the head of an immense house of business here, with manufactories employing more than 700 work men, most of whom have been lately discharged, was reported last night to have shot himself; and Mr. Bahre, a most respectable merchant in the South American trade, being in difficulties, com mitted suicide this morning by hanging himself. In coffee, spelter, and oil, no transactions took place, and quotations lower. Bills on London in demand, at about the same exchange as on Friday last. Discount nominally 9to 9 per cent, but nobody is willing to discount any paper in the present critical state of affairs. HOUSE OF COMMONS. Shortly before or o'clock the members berm to assemble, and when the Speaker enteral the House, some time before two tiolook, there was a fall attendance. At a quarter rest two o'clock, the House wee summoned to sppear at the bar of the Hones of Lord', snd for some minutes the chamber was tenantless. On their return, the members adjourned tin four o'clock. PAILIAMENTAIY EN272 TAINMINTS.

Sir,—My ►bsenoe on the Continent bas disabled me from attending the recent meetings of the Council of the Society of Arta, but from the paper/ which have been transmitted to me I gather that seven members of the Council, constituting a majority at each meeting, have passed resolutions which, it appears to me, ignore and repudiate the opinions I expressed In the Society last year in my inaugural address on the Im mediate and prospective mode of conducting the Society's ez =Mations for the benefit of Iderhanice Institutes, and which opinion I, as chairman of the Council, was certainly author ised to express by the unanimous consent of the members.

THE LEVIATHAN.-(THIS DAY.) r Up to noon this morning the apparatus which we described in yesterday's Erevan had not been applied, but our reporter was informed that the grand attempt was to be made in the course of the neat two hours, and sanguine expectations were entertained that the ship would be brought to the watets edge, or so much nearer to it that the action of the tide will powerfully mein the mechanical appliances. The tides will serve until Saturday, and the force at com mand will be continuously applied until the launch is faceted. In the course of yesterday such of the visitors as were so fortuneless to obtain pormiselon, and whose curiosity was proof agsbest the diary tereoreof a succemion of long flights of sealing bidden, clambered up the ship's colored sides, and got their first adequate (=premien of her vast sire, by stand ing on her Mumma, deck end looking fore and aft, when the whole might have been taken for some piece of table lend at the top of ► mountain but for the signs of human indus try that lay everywhere scattered about, and the ribs of iron that crossed and recrossed on the still =planked surface. Standing midahipe it seemed a long way to look towards the bow, and to turn sternwards woe only to repeat the illusion. Certainly, no previous idea that the spectator could have formed of the possible dimensions of s ship's deck could at all prepare him for the immense expanse of Barba which he actually saw stretching out whichever way he tamed. It was quite impossible to take in the whole at a single glance, and every appendage, even the five great funnels, appeared small and stunted in proportion. The paddle-boxes, each of which is about the size of as ordinary steamer, looked perfectly trivial, and the various hatchways, although all of unusually large dimension, seemed as intended only for Lilliputian transit. If one ventured to leak over the rough rail that ran round the dock, the roof. of the various factories and workshops in the neighbourhood could be seen far below, and when the dinner bell rang the stresms of men hurrying through the gates presented an ap pearance somewhat like that of the crowds of Choapaide from the (eatery of St. Paul's. To judge of the depth of the vessel there are two admirable means at hand—namely, the great cinder shaft, a square vertical tunnel running right down to the flooring, and the passage by which the unhappy engineers ars to demand to their permanent habitation thirty feet below the water line. The enormous uninterrupted depth of the one, or the interminable Blender Iron ladders of the other, most be seen to be appreciated, as any attempt to ' regime their effect for a reader by comparison would only ex pose the writer to incredulity and ridicule. The huge engines imbedded deep In the met hold looked as if Cyclops only could have made them, and that they had but just arrived from the Cave of Polyphemus, although we doubt if ever that eminent see-eyed engineer prodand so creditable a piece of workmanship. But as we write to give hasty imprinter'', not a detailed description, It will be sufficient to my that everything seemed to be on the same Titanic scale, including the grand saloon, 100 feet long and 15 feet high, which It l 4 hoped will speedily be reedy for the promised hospitalities of the directors. There were but few men on board to give lib to the vest wilderness, and everything seemed in an un finished state, except a email portion of the deck, which had been planked to give an idea of how the whole would look when complete. When we say email, we of course men small in proportion, as this comparatively isolated patch would have made a commodious flush deck for an Americo liner. Judging from our hasty and comfortless inspeetkar we should my that when the vend is once fairly on the water, and has her interior fittings complete, she will be a sight worth coming to see from almost any part of the world. At a late hour, a roma carriage with outriders drew up to the gate, with the Prime et Prussia and (we believe) Prince Edward of Saxe Weimar, coming, like thereat of the maid, to use the greet ship.
