LITERATUER KR HENRY HAVELOCK, R.C.B. The life of a man whom each an authority as Lord Ifardinge pronounced to be " every inch • soldier and ev er y inch a Christian" is a subje s -t be yond which the ambition of no biographer need aspire. We learn that a deliberately compered life of the late Sir Henry Havelock, founded o,n tiosoments, may be looked for in due tune from the pen of Mr. John Marshman, whose large acquaint anise with Indian affairs and intimate knowledge of the deceased General eminently qualify him to ladertake that work. In the meantime the Rev. W. Brock, minister of the Baptist Chapel in Blooms bury, comes forward with a biographical sketeh,• l having especial reference to the religious character of Havelock, and prepared with the aid of the family and friends of the General. Without acknowledging the truth of the position that a man's' religion is something that can be itstingnished from his life, and not rather the informing principle of the whole, without admitting that there is not as much religion in the common acts of a good man as in his prayers and " 'sperienoes"—to bor row a word of Aunt Chloe—we thank Mr. Brock for his very acceptable volume. It is all that it professes to be, and more; and far from complaining that we have not complete information of the outward events of Havelock's career we wondi r that so much should have been done, and so well, in the short time which the im patience of the public has allowed the author. Let ue say, before going farther, that the value of this volume is enhanced by an accompanying portrait, which to our minds is very much more characteristic and truthful than any we have heretofore seen. The descent of the family of Havelock has been speculatively deduced from a Danish origin. The deceased General was content to know that his hirents were English, and traced his lineage no gher than to an honest family which resided in Lincolnshire. William Havelock, his father, was born at Guisborough, in Yorkshire, made good his position at Sunderland, and then married Jane Car ter, daughter of a conveyancer of that town. Henry, their illustrious son, was born at Bishop Wesrmouth, near Sunderland, on the sth of April, 1795. When he wee in his fifth year, his father immigrated to the south of England, and bought Ingress, in Kent In his sixth year he was sent, with his elder brother William (killed in the cavalry action at Ramnugger, 1843), as a parlour boarder, to the school of the Rev. J. Bradley, curate of Swanscomb, in which parish Ingress was situate& and remained under the care of that gentleman about three years. Courage and presence of mind in danger appear in such stories of his childhood as have survived an arduous and eventful career. He falls from a tree in Ingress Park, and is asked by his father whether he was not frightened "No," is the reply, "I was thinking about the bird's eggs." He interferes in a fight, to secure fair play for a schoolfellow, and gets a black eye. Called to give an account of the disfigurement to his master he is silent, and takes his thrashing like a man. He was at this time a great reader of all papers which came in his way relating to military affairs, and made himself familiar with the move ments of Napoleon. His tendencies towards the pro fession of a soldier were already so strongly evinced, that his mother apprehended disappointment of her project of educating him for the law. In 1804 he left Mr. Bradley's school for the Charter house, and lodged with the Rev. Dr. Matthew Heine, then head master. Here he had for his intimate friends the late Archdeacon Charles Jahns Hare and Sir William Norris, late Chief Justice of Ceylon, and for contemporaries Coonop Thirlwall, now Bishop of St. David's; George Grote, the historian of Greece; the present Lord Panmure ; Eastlake, the painter; and 'Yates, subsequently dis .tiaguished oo the stage. Havelock reached the fifth form in 1810, in the following year passed to the sixth, and at its close left the school. As a schoolboy Henry Havelock feared God, and did what was right. He and several of his companions were in the habit of meeting in one of the sleeping coons of the Charterhouse to read the Bible and pray with one another; or, as Mr. Brock phrases it, " for re ligious Purpose.." The time having come for choosing some pursuit in life, the profession of the law was resolved on, whether elected by the youth in dutiful deference to the wishes of his mother, or in consequence of an ac quired taste and habit of study, we are not informed. Ia 1614, accordingly, Havelock became a pupil of Chitty. But while studying the law he followed with fraternal interest the'active career of his brother William, who, four years before, had entered the army, and when Napoleon returned from Elba, he " yielded," as he himself has recorded. " to the mili tary propensities of his race," and asked his brother to get him a commission at once ; In July, 1815, Henry was appointed second lieutenant in the Rifle Brigade, then the 95th Regiment. The peace which followed the battle of 1815 permitted no opportunity for that active service to which the young soldier had looked forward. Between his nomination and 1823 he travelled in France and in the North of Italy, read a good deal in a discursive way, and carefully studied Hindoatanee and Persian under Dr. Gilchrist in London. He had revolved upon his course; he would serve in India; whither, accordingly, he proceeded in 1823, having first ex changed into the 131 h Light Infantry. Havelock's transference to India is a cardinal point in the history of his external life He himself was also accustomed to regard this as the most critical epoch of his existence, but for another reason. We must here be silent while he speaks. Our extract is from his own memoranda, in which he is never mentioned but in the third person : A far more important event, " as regarded the interests of the writer, ought to have bees recorded whilst narrating the emote of 1023, for It was while he arm salting across the wide Atlantis towards Bengal that the spirit of God name to him with its offers of peace and mandate of love, which, though breams time 'sainted, were received, and at Itngth prevailed. Them was wrought that great change in his soul which has been reductive of unspeakable advantage to him in time, and he Baste has secured him happiness through eternity. We pause here ; the ground is sacred. But from the distance where we stand we may point out how suitable for a soldier was that form of the Christian religion which Havelock tells us be embraced. He speaks of it as placing him in a direct personal relation with his Maker. Thus it was simple, ever at hand, and of tremendous animating power. He describes it as bringing an in ternal peace, the very want of a man called to hie in betties and tumults. And he calls it a mAldate of love, a truer and worthier description than which theologians have never devised. In:lndia, where he landed with his regiment in 1823, be was soon recognised as a man who would do what was right and feared nothing. He devoted himself to the improvement of his men, studying their tempers, gaining their goodwill, making them better soldiers, instructing their minds, and endeavouring by all allowable means to influence them for their Ilcod• la April, 1824, war was declared against the Burmans, and thither Havelock went as Deputy-As sistant Adjutant-General, on the staff of Sir Archibald Campbell. lie took part in the actions near Ran goon, but was compelled by a disordered state of liver to return to Hiodostan. Upon the restoration of his health he rejoined the army in the field, and fought with it at Napadee, Patinae, and Pagham- Myo. The capture of Rangoon r . mt his influence over his men to a severe strain, and be spared no pains to hold them back from th a excesses to which soldiers are tempted under circumstances like theirs. "There is no such soldier ia the world as the English soldier," he was accustomed to say, "if he an be kept from drink." In accordance with his principles, he looked about to find a place where his men might conveniently worship, sad he succeeded in obtaining a chamber • A B Sketch of Sir Mazy Havelock, 8.C.8. lily t h e Bev.

An officer relates that, as he woe wandering about the pagoda on one occasion, he h..eird, as he thought, the sound of psalm singing, and cideavonring to trace it to its source, came upon Hav Block, who sat with his Bible and hymn book before him, and more than a hundred men listening to his instructions. The lamps which served to light them they had carried in and placed in the laps of the croto-legged images of Boodh which were ranged round the room. A brother officer who knew him at this time has said : When I first knew Havelock, In 18.24, he was esly right and-twenty ; but he was conspicuous a s an earnest *admit of his profession, a chivalrous soldier, and .e man of the highest integrity. That which formed the brightest glory in his whole career wes his sterling Christie'. oottartost7. He was not a man to parade his opinions or ft oliogy, or to =am any striking display, online called for by sane act or word of others, when no one could be more firm in th e avowal of his sentiments, and his calm, impreseive mans Cr always told with effect. Another writes—" He invariably scoured two hours in the morning for reading the scriptures and private prayer. If the march began at silt, he rose at four ; if at four, he rose at two." hir. Brock notices that he came under the conviction that "to the Lord's service there wu due at least one-te nth of his income;" and that even when a subaltern, and domestic claims were pressing, that proportion was " sacredly devoted to the objects of Ch r i s ti an bene volence.* On the conclusion of the peace he was associated with two other officers on a mission to the Burman capital, and had audience of the Monarch, from whom he received a ring and a patent of Burman nobility. In 1827 we find Havelock with his regiment at Dinapore. He was soon after appointed by Lord Combermere adjutant to the depot of King' s t roo p s a t Chinsurah. In 1828 he published his Memoirs of the Campaign in Ave. On the 9th of February, 1829, the anniversary of the tight at Pagham-Myo, he was mar ried at Serampore to the third daughter of Dr. Marsh man, a union which was fruitful of nothing but happiness to both. In the following year he openly joined the Baptists, and was immersed according to their practice. In 1833, he passed an examination in native languages at Agra, and in 1834 was equally suocessfal at the college of Fort- William, and was appointed acting interpreter to the 16th Foot. In 1835 an attempt was made to obtain for him the appointment of adjutant to the 13th Light Infantry ; and we are informed th a t th e application was opposed on account of his religious habits. Consideringthe emphasis with which the story of this opposition le told, it would have been as well if the case had been stated a little more definitely. However, it is satisfactory to know that a strict inquiry was made as to the discipline and conduct of Havelock's company, and that when it had been well ascertained that his men were the soberest and best behaved in the regiment, theOovernor-General, Lord William Bentinck, gave the appointment to him, de claring that he was the fittest man for it. In 1836 he sustained a heavy calamity. His wife hat given birth to a daughter a few months before, and had been re moved to the Himalayas for a change of air. A fire broke out in their thatched bungalow, his daughter was destroyed by fire, and his wife only escaped dreadfully burnt. After rendering the best service to his sovereign for 23 years as a subaltern, he was promoted to a captaincy. The army which was to invade Aff ghanistan was now being formed, and Havelock was appointed aide-de-camp to Sir Willoughby Cotton. He was at the surrender of Fort Bakkur, entered Made, re-crossed the Indus, was present at the occupation of Khandahsr, and the storming of Ghurnee. He then went to Cabool, moved down to Jellalabad and Peshawar with Sir Willoughby Cot ton, and returned to India to write the narrative of the campaign. As adjutant he had persevered in the work which he had before begun. His brother officers would sometimes say : "If the men like to drink, why let them. Suppose they do swear, no great harm. Soldiers will be soldiers." But he went on fighting against everything that was evil, and looking to a higher power for success. During this campaign he had laboured hard to promote tempe rance in the army, and he has left on record t ha t after the capture of Ghwinee the appeals of the helpless were never disregarded, and that not a woman was outraged by the captors. In 1840 we find him accompanying General Elphinstone's escort and convoy back to Cabool. He was soon after appointed Persian interpreter to that general, by whom he was sent to the camp of Sir Robert Sale, and was present at the forcing of the KhoordCaboul Pats. He made one more journey to Cabool with despatches, and was again sent back to Sir Robert, who happily detained him, for the insurrection at Cabool immediately followed. Sale fell back on Jellahabad, and the memorable defence commenced. Havelock's old regiment, the 13th, acquitted itself nobly. The commander wrote of them, " The men ascended heights nearly perpen dicular, under the sharp fire of the insurgents." The defence was protracted to the following year, when Havelock commanded the right column in the first attack on Mohammed Akbar'a c imp, for which he was afterwards promoted to majority by brevet, and received the cross of Companion of the Bath. When General Pollock had forced the Khyber, Havelock was first nominated interpreter, and sub sequently deputy assistant and adjutant-general to the infantry division. Cabool was once more occu pied. We revert to the defence of Jellalabad to recall a striking incident. For six weeks offices and men had worked night and day, with the sword in one hand and the pick or hammer in the other, when, about Christmas time, the for tifications were deemed complete and suffi cient. Havelock went to General Sale, and asked whether it would not be proper to assemble the whole garrison and give thanks to God, who had given them strength to bring the works to • conclu sion. Sir Robert approved the suggestion. The brave men were called together, and stood waiting to receive the word of command, when a well-known voice was heard, " Let us pray ;" and while all the soldiers knelt in reverence, Havelock presented in sincere and simple words to heaven the gratitude and trust of the garrison. The army of Affghanistan was broken up in 1843, and Havelock returned to regimental duty, acquiring the regimental rank of major. Upon the arrival of Sir Hugh Gough in India, he was appointed Persian interpreter to the new Commander-in-Chief, and soon after was with him at the battle of Maharajpore. In the next year he was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel by brevet, and was detached from his old regiment, the 13th, with which he left Eng land. Of his original comrades, only five remained in the corps. In 1845, the Sikhs invaded India. Havelock, as usual, was in the fight ; and at the battle of Moodkee had two horses shot under him. In the battle of Bobraon, which was fought in the succeeding year, his horse was struck down by a cannon-shot, which passed through the saddle-sloth. Oa the conclusion of the war he was appointed Deputy Adjutant-General to the Queen's troops at Bombay. He has scarcely been installed in his new post when he writes to his sister in England, " My health is perfectly shaken,if not wholly broken, byes many years of hard work in this climate. I ought to be oft in March for England ; my circumstances hardly afford me an opportunity of so doing." His own belief was that he had received irremediable injury at Moodkee. At the close of an arduous day, parched with thirst, he rode up to a well. His horse, though greatly needing water, recoiled and re. fused to taste; Ins master, less prudent, drank heartily. The well had been poisoned by the Sikhs. In 1848 Havelock was appointed to act Ls military secretary to the Commander-in-Chief at Bombay, and at the close of that year learned that the brother who had obtained for him his commission had fallen in • skirmish at Itamiouggur. In 1849, after an absence of twenty-seven years, he returned, broken down, to sfek rest and medial aid in his native land. He was advised to take up his residence in Plymouth, where, having no company or regiment to care for, he sought out the sorrowing trod afflicted. In Merck he came up to London and was presented at a levee by the Duke of Wellington. In the autumn of 1850 he proceeded to Ems in Germany, for the benefit of the celebrated waters of that place. Potations, im mersions, and grape-eating, made him once more a man, and he had to decide upon a future active course. It waa a hard struggle. The children must be brought up, and an Indian education could.not be thought of. Twenty-seven years' service, twenty-three of which passed over him as • subaltern, had given him no chance of making a provision for his family. It was only too clear. He must separate himself from the wife and children who were all his earthly joy, and go back to the East to earn the living. Having formed his resolution, he took a house at Bonn, which overlooked the Rhine, and there for six months remained with his family providing for their future comfort. In September, 1851, he came to England to take leave of friends, returned to Bonn, took leave of his family, and set his face coward's India alone. He arrived at Bombay in December. The letters be wrote on his way out prove that this separation tried him to the centre of his being. On no other subject does he speak so strongly. A letter addressed to his wife two years later may be appropriately introduced here as exhibiting Have lock in his domestic relations. He has written the day before, but remembering that it is his wife's hgtlyisky, he says : It appears to me like a dream, so gnlcidy have tie twisty- Isar years passed away since we became man and wife. I may not--(who can slay f)—live to see soother of yove birth days, so now I will record how great have been year de in upholding me in toy many trials. But, above a se ll7 l 2 L bs registered in heaven the care you have taken to train our dm remaining children up fee the blessings of eternity. • • • May God guide you perpetually, and lead you into all holiness and truth. If I am spared to re turn to you, may our joint prayers obtains blessing on those we love. On earth may you and I meet in peace, and In heaven in earlier eatiefaction. Returned to India, Havelock resumed his old habits of usefulness. At the same time he was exceedingly anxious to do something to place his family in better circumstances. In a letter ad dressed to his wife in 1858 he writes :—"I hold to my purpose as strongly as ever, I trust, of drawing on the Bank of Faith ; but have learnt in my old age that there is another establishment too much before neglected—the Bank of Prudence." Great was his joy when in May, 1854, he was informed that he was appointed Quartermaster General to the army, and in December of the same year when he became Adjutant-General to her Majesty's forces. After a separation of nearly seven years it was arranged that some time in 1857 Mrs. Havelock should rejoin her husband at Bombay, with one or two of the children, and great was their common joy. But just u expectation was at its height came the declaration of war with Persia. At Sir James (hitzera's recom mendation General Anson offered him a divisional command in the Persian expedition ; and for the children's sake he dare not refuse. Thus all plans for a meeting were postponed. It was written that Havelock should never see his wife and children more. At Bombay, on the eve of embarking for Persia, he writes : "The command is responsible, but my trust is in God. It is a rare thing for an officer in the Bengal presidency to be called to command Bom bay troops. I never should have solicited such a command, but when the post of honour and danger was, offered me, old as I am, I lid not hesitate a moment. The telegraphic wires carried back an unconditional acceptance." On board the steamer which was conveying him to Persia, he writes—" On the morning of June 27, 1857, the battery fired a salute, as I was supposed to have embarked; the first expense of the kind to which I have ever put the Indian government." He arrived at Bushire on the 29th of Sept., just after the battle of Koorhah, and in March went with the expedition to Mohammerab, where, however, his troops were not called to fire a shot. They had, however, to risk some. Havelock writes—" The cannonade was warm, and my steamer, the Berenice, crowded with Highlanders, led the troopships to the place where we landed." In all his letters, he speaks very warmly of the kindness of Sir James 0 utram. Havelock left Persia on the 15th May, 1857, and went to Bombay to take his poet of Adjutant-Gene ral, but on arriving there received the astoundingin telligence of the Sepoy mutiny. Three days after wards, after consultation with Lord Elphinstone, he embarked in the Erin with two regiments of his Per sian division for Calcutta. Before the Erin reached Point de Geile she struck. The captain was over come by the greatness of the misfortune and the crew lost their wits. There wanted yet four hours to daylight. Havelock mourned some authority; kept the men from the spirit cask, and by great exertions a communication with the shore near Calton wu effected. On the Bth of June he made a new start from Point de Grille for Calcutta, which he reached on the 17th, in company with the new Commander in -Chief, Sir Patrick Grant. On the 20th he was re-appointed brigadier-general, and sent up to see what could be done to relieve Cawopore, where Sir Hugh Wheeler and the hapless garrison were then threatened. As is proper in a permanent record, Mr. Brock has devoted a large proportion of his volume to an account of Havelock's advance upon Cawnpore and Lncknow, aiding his description with plans ; but we need not follow him here, for this is the very part of the history of the Indian mutiny which is most deeply impressed on all our memories. The reputation of Havelock is not the handiwork of a "powerful " special correspondent, embellishing and magnifying all. It grew on us fortnight by fortnight, in the suspense, never to be forgotten, of last August and Septenber, by the eloquence of deeds. The military historian will hereafter com pute the precise technical value of his exploits, will number the miles marched, the guns taken, and the disproportion of the combatant forces ; but the Eng lishmen and Englishwomen of this generation will remember him with love and honour as the great hearted, single-minded man, whose high heroic acts and manly trust in God in a long interval of gloom stood between them and despair. Why recall What lives and burns within the Norte of all ? We all remember bow he rose—a star On the thick midnight of that dreadful war, Rolled back the tide of ruin, and restored The poise of empire by his single sword. " Thanks to Almighty God" is the first exclama tion after every victory. After the battle of Futteh pore he writes to his wife : " One of the prayers oft repeated throughout my life since my schooldays has been answered, and I have lived to command in a successful action." And then he remembers de friends, " How dear old Julius Hare would L ar vn i ejoiced if he had lived to see the day." In the interval between his junction with Inglis at Lueknow and the effectual relief of that place by Sir Colin Campbell, Havelock's health had visibly given way. The doctor saw what was taking place, but there was no remedy. His vigilance and energy were wanted day and night for women and children. When the mighty task was performed the strong man gave way. The repose of the Alumbagh re sealed the ravages which bad been made in his con stitution. His own satisfaction was intense ; and on all sides he received the most pleasing marks of attention. How he valued the honours conferred on him in England, with the first only of which he lived to become acqrainted, appears from the last letter ha wrote to his wife: " The papers announce my elevation to the Commandership of the Bath for my first three battles. I have fought nine more since then. Love to the children. Ido not after all see my elevation in the Gazette : but Sir Colin ad dreams me as Sir Henry Havelock." This was written en the lath of November. On the 22nd his disease, drentrry, assumed a malignant form. His ,eafferirgs were not severe, but strength was met Miling. On the 23rd Sir James Outcam called to see his ;Id comrade, and heard him say, " For more then forty years I have so ruled my life that when death came I miOt hoe it without fear." The nerfc day, attended by his faithful eldest son, Wilma worded man, the noble warrior died. (Stamped Id. Additional.) [TWOPENCE. COUNT WALEWSIOB DESPATCH. Her Majesty's government h.'a received a despatch from the French atubassad..r, sent ..0 him by Count Wa lewski, the French Minister for Fort iltn Affair., in reply to a dispatch fetweedea to t h e ,vrench government by her Majesty's Secretary of Stat. lot Foreign Affairs, in reply to Count Walewskis despatch of the 2 0th of January. This despatch is couched ft.' very etnri liatory language. It commences by expressing " the antis' faction" felt by the French government that the ne w Ministry, following in the steps of Lord Pat lientt?n , shows a williagntel to cultivate cordial relation.' with France. The diarist:l then expreeses the regret felt 11 the Imperial government that the tenor of the despatch the 20th of January should have been misinterpreted, and it ap peals to the line of conduct followed by the Emperor Nap'- lam 111. during the last six years as • proof of the impos sibility that his Majesty should have asked anything which it would have been inconsistent with the honour of England to grant. The imperial government (rays the despatch) never meant to imply that England favoured the men who elevate ainaseination to • doctrine, but simply that such persona were allowed to dwell in England. The Em peror (continues the despatch) was not induced to call theist tuition of the English government to the above fact through any fear for his own life, but simply en account of the strong feeling which the attempt of the 14th of January had excited in the population of France, and which was of a nature to royals that the English gevenemmet should he re quited to take some stronger messares as regards refugees. The request was made by the Emperor in the interest of the aliases which exist' between the two countries. The Freese government withdraws from the oontroversy, and declares that it nukes no demands; it places implicit confidence in the good feeling of the English people (it int rapporie u la layout! elso people dation). Both this dispatch and that from Lord Malmesbury to Lord Cowley, to which that of Count Walswski is an answer. will he laid upon the table of both homes this evening. —Times. SPORTING.

THE SPAIN° PLEET.--GREJT DAMAGE TO VESSELS ON THE TINA SHIELDS, SATURDAY NIOHT. During the put fortnight, in consequence of the stormy weather that prevailed In the North See, an enormous feet of laden vessels accumulated in the north east ports. Last night at least 1,600 sail of vessels were lying in thou ports laden with coals, and ready for sea; and this afternoon, in consequenes of the favourable change of the weather, • very large flea, at least a thousand vessels, had been crowd ing out of the Tyne, Wear, the Hartlepool, and other her bow.. At the moment I write the North See between Ellyth and Whitby Is crowded with shipping running south. A most exciting some was witnessed at the month of the Tyne during the coarse of this afternoon. At the young flood a light vessel, named the Balmoral, got on the Maud which caused a number of small vessels to be delayed in going out, so that at near high water a large fleet of vessels of all &kW were crowding outtogether ; in the midst of the throng, se • brig named the R ob ert and Joseph, was towing out, the warp unfortunately broke, and she also on to the insand. This caused a number of yawls behind to sheer into the tiers at the Low Lights, and a most frightful scene of confusion arose, which did not terminate until between three and four o'clock, • very considerable amount of damage having been done. The brig Navigator, the Lowestoft ipacket, and a Greek vessel, after getting to sea have been obliged to put into the harbour again, in con sequence of the damage they sustained. A very handsome new barque, named the Sylvan, belonging to Gideon Smelts, Esq., of Whitby, was stranded on the umand in the fore part of the afternoon. Whilst lying in that position four vessels ran into her, cue vessel, the Alderman, leaving her anchor in her stern. The Robert and Joseph got well out. The Sylvan is still stranded, and the greatest anxiety is manifested tonight lest she should break bee back and. become • wreck. An American clipper, the Edystone, also on the Head sand, and great anxiety prevails with regard to her also, as the freshets are very strong. The Rosie, mew Mum, her Maenad disabled ; and other, vessels are damaged. MR. WARTLAND MARB7I9IrB DRAMATIC JURADI.NO.

(From the Times.) We are told that the Ministry of Police is to be reorganised, and that its chief will be placed in the first rank of ministers. He should, indeed, take precedence of them all, for everything menu likely to be brought within the sphere of his control. The gay city of Paris, the home 1 of social intercourse, of lively conversation and free opinions, hardly knows itaelf. The outward as pe ct of the place is the same; there are the same boulevards, the same tountains flashing in the sun, the same roils frequented by the same loungers, and in private life the same draw ing -rooms and hangings , and toilets. But over everything there are gloom and uneasiness. People are talking timidl, and with unusual du:ness, on eo. usually common-p lace topics. Families are hesitating whom they shall visit and whom they shall be visited by. Men consider whether they ought to be seen walking with a friend whom they have known for years. Two persons i will be speaking together, and on seeing a third about to Tin them will suddenly pause and turn th e conversation. here will be in the midst of a social concourse a man who checks the mirth and pots a guard on eve toue. People will talk with him, shake hands ry with him, but they will be careful of what they say before him. Individuals are careful what hooka they have in their libraries, what papers they have in their writing desks. They do not talk affably with their inferiors, es light-hearted Frenchmen in the old times did. The ensemrge, the waiter at the cafe. even the private servants, are kept at • distance. Ina railwayearriage it is am well not to be too communicative with a neighbour. In a letter it is as well to confine yourself to your own private business and good wishes fur your correspondent's health. For Paris and France are under strict surveillance, and no one knows who are the watchers and who the watched. The empire is espieenege. Its incarnation is a mormAard. It is not only that recognised agents of police are in every street and every public plate, that the comings and goings of well-kno en democrats are watched, that the as semblies of communime are hunted out, but men of every rank, every phase of character, every shade of political opinions, are at the mercy of an Immense army of spies, who penetrate everywhere, who follow the individual into the confidence even of his family and his private life, and who have spread distrust end apprehension throughout the country. It has, indeed, long been the misfortune of France that the security of private relations has been weakened by the means used by government to obtain intel ligence, and this fact has doubtless had no little effect on society and domestic life; but it would mem that now the evil has assumed fearful proportions. We hear of profeesional , spies of every apparent rank in life, from the well-dressed gentleman to the workman in his blouse; we hear of kettles , paid for information concerning those with whom they seenciate; we hear of hotels and restaurants being frequented by persons whose duty it is to hat= to the conversation of suspicious visitors, and to endeavour to draw them into an expression of opinion. But the worst feature of all is the encouragement of domestic treachery by the corruption of private servants. No one can be more that the man who brushes his coat or the woman who attends on his children, is not In correspondence with the police. We are not repeating any plemottehe gossip ; we are stating facts proved beyond • doubt, and commenting on practices which &repot even denied. Domestic servants of every degree are encouraged to report what parses in the houses where they are employed—who comes, who goes, what is maid, what is proposed to be done. ANA from the moral degradation which a government receives by a resort to such practices, it is evident that the informa tion moat be moat untrustworthy. The sort of half-know ledge which servants have of their master's proceedings will naturally cause them to distort all they Pee and hear. The most innocent conversation will be misinterpreted ; any an ' Mon which the spy does not =denten , / will oe construed into treason; a letter from England or a grip into Bettis,- land will be at once a correspondence with refugees, and die ! affection will be found in • shrug of the shoulders or a raising !of the eyebrow. How much will this tendency to exaggers non be increased when the servant knows that the value of his report, and the reward he receives, rise in proportion to ! the incrimination of his victims! . _ Such a system as this, added to the new law of public se curity and the appointment of General Espinasse, has natu rally thrown over the capital a gloom which seems not likely to be dissipated. The baneful consequence*, even in a ma terial point of view, are to be found in the sudden depres sion of business and the general anxiety of 'he mercantile world. The whole policy of the French government of late is indeed much to be regretted. No one who has watched the career of the Emperor and has seen his oportnnities can help regretting that he should have allowed _those who surround him to entangle him in such a net. Helms involved himself in a system which no man can hope to control, and which must every day become more unmanageable. He is striving to take the whole of France into custody. To have every man of wealth, or position, or political note in the empire, every theorist, or fanatic, or vainglorious demo unt, or rookie= desperado under his eye, is the purpose of the present ruler. That he must be unsuccessful we know beforebind, and the question is whether the only evil will be the failure of his object. Our own opinion must he, that such a machinery till tend to create the spirit it seeks to re press. Sedition will be generated by the intolerable omni presence of the police. Every advance of the new power will necessitate a still further extension, until a crisis arrives, on which it would be premature to speculate. CIVIL SERVANTS' SUBSCRIPTION.—We learn with plates» that several of the most active and able of the civil servaan of the Crown have this week set on foot a subscrip tion for the purpose of presenting Mr. Bromley with some psrensammt memorial of the sense they entertain dills cadent savior in obtaining the repeal of the Superannuatiort Act.
