Scott Lillie, C. 8., late Lieutenant-Colonel of the Grenadier Guards, has written a singular letter to the Byre Defence Committee, one which, however, Mr. Hamilton Hume seems very proud to publish. Referring to the war in the Peninsula, he says : " In the attainment of inch important results iunny ille gal and unjusable acts of cruelty and bloodshed bad no doubt been tifi committed, as in Jamaica, which would no t b e sanctioned by any of our courts of law circumstances, m any of which I witnessed myself, after the ca pture of various fortresses, by drunken soldiers who hich had been for days an d ni g hts in an ungoverna state, w the Duke of Wellington overlooked, and was supposed so far to sanction, as such acts had been looked upon us a reward fur the dangers incurred ia the storming and cap ture, though such cruelties were perpetrated not on the common enemy, but on the nnotfeniling natives inhabiting such cities and towns." He further adds, "Th ee attain ment of the end, under circumstances oi this nture, is generally looked upon as a justification of the ine.ms, Finis coronet opus ; and this is the opinion submitted fir the consideration of the Eyre Defence Committee, in reply to their communication, by their obedient servant, JOHN SCOTT LILLIE." AN ELEPHANT'S Rave:cos.—A m an named Wil liams, a groom at the circus of Messrs. Bell and Myers, at pzesent performing in St. Helier's, Jersey. received seri ous, if not fatal, injuries on Saturday, from an elephant connected with the establishment. Williams, in the dis charge of his duty. went to the stables after the evening perfonnance to les to the horses. While giving water to the horse pnext the elephant , the latter, wishing to drink, reached out his trunk, which Williams struck a violent blow, refusing the animal any water. He then, to show to a c o soldier of the 69th Regiment—his mantery of the elephant, commanded the animal to per form some of hie usual tricks. Thi exhausted until the patience of the docile animal beingat the un reasonable demands of Williams, he threw his trunk round him, and pressed him against the stable wall with such force that when the unfortunate roan fell to the ground and was picked op he wari half dead and bleeding profusely. He was conveyed at once to the General Hos pital, where he was attended to ; but it is feared that the internal injuries he has received may terminate fatally. MYSTERIOPS DISAPPEARANCE OF A WHITEHAVEN GENTLEMAN. —Very painful ramours have been afloat in this town during the last ten days respecting the myste rious disappearance of • gentleman holding several import ant legal appointments, and verymuch respected genenilly. The gentleman in question left his home some weeks agoon business, and was last heardof in London onSunday a:mirth inst., when he dined and spent the evening with some f riends from this district ; on leaving them he gave out that he proposed starting for Whitehaven that evening, and actually caused a passing cab to be engaged to convey him to the railway station. He however, sever reached Whitehaven, and since that date nothing has been beard of him, and all efforts to trace his movements ex pe riencedroved nnsuccessful, n otwithstamling some of the most detectives have been on the alert. There are strong sus picions of foul play, and his friends are, as may be ima gined, in a most painful state of anxiety repecting his fate, about which such a cloud of doubt and suspicion hangs at presen t. It is, howeve r, ho p ed that it is n ot too l Ca ate rl for t h e mystery to be satisfactorily cleared %T.—sle Patriot.
