CAMP OF THE FOREIGN LEGION AT (141011 • Auever 4. Tt,e exclamation, "A pretty day this for target pract:cr," accompanied by sundry hearty, untranalate abk b. nedictions on the weather, seemed to be the u n iv e rsal greeting that passed between the few hooded and cloaked figures that were to be rest striding across the camp, in the midst of the pounsg rain, at an early hoot yesterday morning. By the loudness of their expletives I knew them to be °Moors, even at • distanse--no private dare blase half so loodly—and on a nearer approach I toned they we about to tarn out their seen for rifle pray tin on the artillery rounds beyond Hythe. Oh for a good ray march with sturdy German troops! The rain! Bah! it is already forgotten, except by the spectacled few among the uarn,w bo every now and then race • laugh 11 their on impatient exclamations, as b they wipe the ► ftding rain from off their glares. And the fatigue! Who ever felt fatigue marching at each a pace, in company with such gallant fellows, and I. time with each right joyous music P For now the band—a taw musicians picked out from among the men of the ru ts, and very imperfect es yet— has ceased to p nd the voices of the men have taken its place. Old, new, quaint, simple, sad, joyous, loyal, revolutionary, are the songs theymng ; bet a ll are alike soul-stirring, full of meaning in their melody, rich with feeling in their words. They are a common stock, known to all, and cherished by alt. There an some among them—old once—that are said to owe their birth to time. whoa no tobacco yet in spired the composer, and beer was the only accompanienest to song; and new ones, that tell of railways, and of " Schleswig-Holstein, main-eur rounded," which are so universally known that throughout the length and breadth of Germany there I. hardly a man bat knows how to join in their shorn. They are respected, too, and honoured; some are not to be sung on every occasion, and all must be sung well or not at all. It is the strangest of masonic signs, this sign of song ; it is at once • bond of brotherhood; it resembles the Arab's bread and salt—we have song together, we are friends. It has • thousand meanings and a thousand charms. Listen to the measured tread—listen to the sound, as it swells and falls with the roar of the sea upon the beach—look upon that handful of men, on • foreign shore, surrounded by strangers, about to shed their blood in a cause not their own—they march and sing, and their own voices carry their thoughts home to those they love. Strange is the power of song! And of all those that march there, there but one who understands it not. It is he who leads; them along the peaceful English land, by the shore— it is he who will have to lead them, amid bullets, on the stern path to death or victory. There is but one who knows not what they say or sing, who can not bid them be of good cheer, or call them " chil dren" in their own rude tongue. There is but one who looks upon them merely as part of a pageant, ' and on their singing as a pretty novilty in "his men," to show to friends and visiteYs, to make much of, and to glory in. It is not given to every man to understand the deeper meaning of the outward sign, but this is no reason why the deeper meaning should be discarded. Is there no one to command these men who knows at least their lan guage, who mi;ht learn their thoughts? Is the utter disregard of common sense to continue for ever in the management of our army, the locomotive put into a child's hands for play. and the penny whistle set to draw a train ? Out upon it! Bit we are marching with the dark green lagers, beneath their flattering standard, where on alternate black and white squares are the English arms and the skull and bones of the old Brunswick Homan and of Lutsow's band. Gaily they march, and ever and anon amid the merry music sounds a merrier laugh, elicited most frequently by some joke with the passers-by, in a few words of broken Esglish, ad dressed more often to the gentler sex than to the men. But so genial is the laughter, so hearty the merriment, that none can take tt amiss, and if the labourer likes not at first the compliments paid to his pretty wife, he ends by smiling as he sees the daughter of the angry farmer in his gig blushing so rosy red, and even the London lady on her tide not escaping without sundry respectful bows and "pratty Wye." The labourer passes on, and as he nudges his wife, he rye, " Well, they be's queer ones, any how." The farmer thinks to himself it is a good thing it was not his wife, bat his daughter, and grunts contentedly that there's so many men leas to be taken away from haying and reaping; and per haps the lady sighs, and thinks of Fred, who is "out there" too. And so they march, and sing, and are wiry The order is given to fall in. We are entering upon the streets of Hythe. The regiment silent in the streets, the measured tread their only music. Thus should the soldier much through towns; but if silent, they are not blind, and if they do not vent their admiration in clumsy com pliment, 'tie not that they the less do homage. The shrines are numerous,and the goddesses unveilled. Full many a chaste and modest lady comes to gaze, nor looks unkindly on the foreign gentleman. The feel ing that prompts the smile is honourable, courage ous, English. Again the " march at ease " sounds along the line, again the chorus is complete; and as a wilder and more stirring strain ended in a joyous shout, they told me to that air they would march upon &baste pel.—and I believe it. The rain had oared, and the morning had become fir, when we reached the practising ground. I mentioned in my last letter how short a time these men have had their arms ; yesterday they fired for the first time with ball cartridges. Each officer com manding a company stood in front of his men, rifle in hand ; he repeated the exercise before them ; he went through it again with them as they ioaded. They fired at a hundred yards. In the first round, out of 76 shots fired by the men near whom I stood, 23 hit the target. One man had lost his bullet in loading. These facts speak for themselves. Several more rounds were fired, both standing and kneeling, with varying results, and another round for • little prize given by Brigadier Woolridge. After get ting some refreshment, provided by an enterprising lad with a donkey-cart, and consisting of damp boos which the men indignantly, but not unjustly, des cribed as neither black nor white, and which r, from melancholy experience, have come to believe indige nous to all small sea-side towns, and gingerbeer— a beverage which, under the sneering name of " pep p.tr water, " (beer, indeed !) has drawn upon itself their unmitigated contempt—the merry-hearted, thought less throng returned home amid renewed rain, as they had come, laughing, singing, and march ing at their ease. Before reaching camp I left the lines ere the order to fall in was given, with many farewells and kind wishes from those whom I had accompanied ; and not a few expressed a flattering hope that I would soon go and chat with them again. The lights hem the camp were stealing upon us through the drizzling rain when the band resumed its duties, and soon the German Legion was housed, and perhaps a-bed, , dreaming of Sebastopol and pepper -water and their own fatherland, when I sat me down to begin this letter.

There is a strong suspicion, which we mach regret appean sot ill-founded, that this burning wen the work of aa inoendeury. Our weather reports are once more most unfavour able. Yesterday afternoon the rain fell in torrents, and continued at intervals during the night. The following is from the " Notes on the State of the Country, by John Lamb, the well-known correspon dent of the Nortkerve Wkip: Dariag the last tea days I have beet as far south as Dahlia; from thence north-west to Leuglord, sad west to Galway ; sad I, eeeeequeetly, have seen more or lees of ten counties. My movemeat• were very rapid, and mostly by railway, so that my opportunity of knowing the state of the crops was extremely superficial; but I have sees as much as loads me conclude that all kinds of gran promise • very heavy crop, if we are only blessed with suitable wea ther to ripen and save it. The oat crop looks even bettor and heavier thaw last year. at the same stage of growth, par ticularly in the west and north-west. Whether it will fill as well, and yield ea mach meal, in proportion, will depend on the weather we have henceforward. In some plates the heavy oats are laid quits fist, particularly in very strong, reek patches ; bat all the farmers 1 thavereed with in the west seemed to think she rain had done very little harm up to that period (the 2ad inst.) Some of them thought that the balsam of good done by the rain g Ily would far sassed the partial injury sustained by soma heavy peaches a oats sad ley. he latter is rather more laid than the oats, sad is not, penally, as heavy • crop; but it stands rain badly. The wheat crop, so far, looks extremely well. I observed very few fields, or eves parts of fields, mush laid ; bat, if wet mations', It will be very soft, and hard to save. I saw many vi ry flue fields of thralps sad maagold warns'. There w. re several fields of oats sold by amnion at Longford last week, the buyer taking all chances and trouble henceforward. The prices ranged from 12L to 13L for the Irish acre ; very high pries, indeed. The potatoes every where, so far, look estroisely well. I have not nth • regu larly diseased potato or potato stalk this year, but I - did hear some little complaints about very early kinds in the county Westmeath. Some specimens of the new flax crop that have been ben ht to market are considered to be exceed ingly goW. A rumour of a militia hneute on the Curregh, which was not believed here, is alluded to in the fol lowing way by the Cbrk Reporter : Considerable uneasiness was created in town, yesterday, by • rumour that a row had occurred oa Banday, a% the eacusposeat on the Curragh of Kildare, hinnies • Cork militia regiment and a Dahlia one, and that it had termi nated in V•l7 eeri.e. results. We are happy to be able to state, however, from inquiries which we made of all the panne most likely to be well informed on the subject, that, although an inwafe durTINFISTan, which at ale period as earned so s miens sa aspect as that the 80th Rifles were obliged to be called in, and to charge with filed bayonets, in order to quell it, only two men were injured, we under stand, rather severely. It may be well to esentioa that the only Cork regiment at prima& emsomped ea this ChM/Ih, is the North Cork. NAVAL AND MILITARY. PORTSMOUTH, Ana. 8.

The Attorney-General, it was stated, was specially ». inlaid on behalf of the plaintiff, and no lass then sixty wit nesses, it appeared, had bees subpeased from Prawn to give evidence. Mr. Judos Wightsaa, with the comsat of all puties, endued the trial to stand one. ./oorp l l Murky. 31, wu indicted for wilful and corrupt Perjury Mr. Wahiawa prosecuted ; Mr. Hee. wu counsel for the defeadaat. arose out of an action tried at the lest Bummer Aldose at Guildford. before Mr. Justice Ede, upon seemisa the Omer was the defendant, and a person' semi Be*, wee the plaintiff. The salon was brought to meow a gam efmassey. se the balsam of an account; and the demos set up was, that Shirley was in reality a partner of Bayley, and upon his examination, among other suite- moots made by hini, be swore that a certain horse, which 1 was one of the matters in dispute between them, had been purchased with his own money, and not with that of Bay ivy. This statement was distinctly negatived, and upon the Jury finding a verdict in favour of Boyle the learned judge ordered the prisoner into custody, and divested that an in dictment for perjury should be preferred against him. Thee' facts were now again made out by the testimony of the different whams*, and there appeared to be very little doubt that the defendant had deliberately sworn to what be must have known to be Glee, is order to escape from the liability in which he was involved by the action that was brought against him. The jury having without any hesitation returned a ver dict of guilty, The learned Judge, after obee•ving upon the very heinous character of the offence, sentenced the defendant to pay a fine of one shilling to the Queen, to be imprisoned in the aunty gaol for one month, and to be that kept to hard labour for eleven months. Mary Beldhous, 27, was indicted for the wilful murder of her male child. Mr. Garth prosecuted. The prisoner was defended by Mr. Lilley. It appeared that the prisoner was married in December last, and that the child whose death was the subject of in quiry was born about three weeks afterwards. The hus band of the prisoner was a labouring man, and they lived together in the neighbourhood of Farnham, and according to the evidence of a woman named Chapman, who lived near them when the child was born, it append perfectly healthy. It died very soon afterwards, and in oonsequence of some suspicion that appeared to be excited by the occur• rinse, a medical gentleman was called in to examine the child, and he expressed an opinion that it had died from suffocation. Is oddities to these facts, it appeared that there wee a mark as though a ligature of some kind had been tied tightly round the neck of the child, but there was no direct evidence to show what had occasioned this mark, or that it bad not been caused accidentally. The Handed counsel for the prisoner made a most earnest and effective appeal to the jury on her behalf, contending that the evidence was by far of too inconclusive a character to justify them is finding a verdict of guilty against her. The learned Judge having summed up, the jury almost immediately returned a verdict of Not Gasify. This case concluded the criminal badness, and his lord , ship this proceeded to try civil causes. Avavar 7. CIOW7I 00171 T. Joerph Bunn, 33, wu indicted for ►igamy. Mr. Doyle prosecuted; Mr. Watkins Williams wu counsel for the pri eoner. The fact of the prisoner having twice gone through the ceremony of marriage wee distinct 4 established, but it cep peered that the fint wile had grossly emisconduted herself, and had left the prisoner and gone to live with another man. He had, it appeared, lived very happily with the se cond wife, and the prisoner, who yru represented to be a hard-working well.cooducted tau, was proved to have acted with the utmost kindness towards her, and then was no complaint on her part against him. The learned counsel for the prisoner, who stated that hi held his maiden brief upon the occasion, in his address to the jury, commented upon the facts of the ease, and like. wise observed upon the hardship that was cut upon persons in the condition of the prisoner by the present state of the law with regard to divorce, and he said that as the only remsey at present afforded the poor man who had the =is tutting to be allied to a worthless partner was one which his means did not enable him to obtain, he was very fre quently 'compelled to commit the offence of which the prisoner was now accused. He therefore celled upon them, if they should feel that their duty compelled them to raters • verdict of guilty, to accompany it with such a recom mendation as would no doubt induce the court to pass • lenient sentence upon the prisoner. His Lordship, in gumming up, said that the kgislature had had ample opportunities of considering the law of divorce, and of masking alterations in it if they oonsidered them expedient, and as they had not seen fit to asks such alteratiou, they must admini.ter the law as it actually existed. if therefore the offence was established to their satisfaction, ft was their duty to say so by their verdict. The jury toned the prisoner Guilty, bet strongly recom mended hint to merry. He was sentenced to two months' imprisonment and hard labour. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—Ceumr., Auo. 6. LT CASII OP 101031 T. &heard &sari Wilms, described in the calendar as a " clerk, aged 34, reads and writes well," was charged with having, on the 3rd of February last, forged the signature of Messrs. Hodgson , solicitor', of Carlisle, to *cheque upon the Carlisle an d Cumberland Bank, (or 5391.121. 6d. The prisoner pleaded not guilty. Mr. °reread, Q C., with whom was Mr. W. H. Hodgson, appeared for the prosecution. Mr. Solemn Wilkins de-, fended the prisoner. It appeared from the evidence thst on Monday, the 6th of February, a letter was received by Mr. Ward, manager of the Carlisle and Cumberland Bank. It was dated Car lisle, February 3, and had enclosed a cheque upon the bank la question for 6391. 12a. 6d., payable to the Rev. Thomas Sandenon, and drawn in the names of Messrs. T. and C. Hodgson, solicitors, Carlisle. The writer of the letter, who signed himself as the Rev. Thomas Sandenon, of Langford Vicarage. near Lancaster, stated that on arriving in Carlisle that afternoon front the country, he found he was too late to get a draft for the cheque enclosed, and being obliged to leave by the next train to be in time for his duties the fol lowing day, he maid be very much obliged if Mr. Ward would forward an order oa the London agents of the bask for the amount, payable at sight, by the neat post. A statement of account between Messrs. Hodgson and the Bev. Tbomss Sanderson was enclosed with the cheque, which latter appeared to have been part of the sheet on which the statement was written, and to have bees cut off it. Mr. Ward having no suspicions in the matter, the cheque being apparently in the handwriting of one of the Messrs. Hodgson, at once drew a draft on Messrs. Monkey and Co., the bankers' agents, for the amount named, less commission, and trans mitted it to Lancaster, as directed. In the course of post he received as acknowledgment dated 6th of February from Langford Viearage, soar Lancaster. The draft on Hankies was subsequently »tuned as paid, and no more was thought about the matter till the lath of April, when the Messrs. Hodgeon's passbook was made up, and the cheque was found to be a forgery. To Bs the guilt upon the prisoner it was shown that as a clerk in one of the leading solicitor's oaken in Carlisle, doing fre quent business with the Messes. Hodgson, he would have ample opportunities of knowing their hand writing ; that the prisoner went up to London on February 7th by,the night train, and that a person asswering his appearance, a passenger by the train, gave a letter to the Lancaster station-master, requesting him to get it posted, sad to be particular with it, as it ITas importiar ; fiat the letter was directed to Mr. Ward, and was so doubt the se- knowlednient of the rweipt of tie draft; that the Lancaster postmaster had previously received a letter dated from Car lisle, stating that a letter had been by mistake directed to the writer (Mr. Sanderson) at Langford Vicarage, and re questing that it might be r►directed to him at the Carlisle post-office ; that the prisoner arrived at an hotel in Drum mond street, London, on the =orating of the 7th February, and went oat about 8 o'clock ; that the draft on Messrs. H.nhey's was cashed about as hour after; that the prisoner subsequently at the Huagerford Hotel was seen etinatia<ost five hundred posed* fa gold, and told a gentleman staying at the hotel that he bad just some from Carlisle, and that three of the 61. notes paid by Mean. Hickey's clerk in cashing the draft were distinctly traced to his poe. maim. Witnesses, well acquainted with his handwriting, also spoke to the handwriting of the body of the cheque and the indorsement, and other dornments produced in eon. nezion with the cam, as being in the prisoner's usual style. Serjeaut Wilkins made as able and energetic defence, contending that some of the witnesses were mistaken, and others unworthy of credit, and that in several thing. which he pointed out the conduct of his client had been such as showed that he was not the guilty party. The jury, after an hour's eeneultadon, returned a verdict of Guilty. and His lordship sentenced the prisoner to 20 years' trans. portation.

John Colo, the alleged proprietor of a coffes-abop and beer-house, No. 9 and 10, Upper Eaton-street, Pimlico, was summened for permitting betting. Samuel Lash stated that the defendant kept a list and books for betting upon various horse racing events, and eons plainant had reputedly taken the odds from him. On the 10th of July the defendant laid him 4 to 2 against Early Bird, 4 to 1 against Bamako, 3 to 1 against Dalkeith, 2 to 1 against Ooorkab, 2to 1 against Benham's. ITke whole of these beta were in shilling., and complainut deposited his stakes with Mr. Cole's man in his presents. Early Bird won the rue, and a hen he went for his iii shillings the two he had deposited and four that be had won of defendant) he pntended that he had paid him on the Wednesday night previously, which was absolutely before the race was run. Complainant had known defendant as proprietor of the hones for a length of time put, and had been him acting there always as master. Complainant bad repeatedly seen persona deposit money with him upon horse-raeinf events. Defendant, in reply to the charge, dented that he was the owner or occupier of the house, and called Charles Eoweell, a rams, to prove that Charles Cole was the person licensed for the sale of bur, who name wu over both doors. Defendant only stopped there when he was in town. Mr. Arnold said that he should alter the summons to being a person using the house for the purpose of betting, and as defendant might wish time to answer that chugs, he would adjourn the cue if he desired it. Defendant, who denied all knowledge of the transaction with the complainant, asked for time, and the case was adjourned for a week. • LAMBETH. Mary Ann Leonard, a well-dressed middle-aged female, who wu represented to be • member of a gang of notorious and expert omnibus thieves, was charged with picking the I pocket of Mrs. Esther Bully, of 866, Albany-road, Cam. berwell._ Mrs. Bully deposed that she got into an Atlas omnibus, to ride into town, end when the vehicle had proceeded about 100 yards a tall man got in, and took his place opposite to her. Immediately attar the prisoner and another man en. tered the omnibus, the former taking her place at her right, and the latter clam to the tall man. The prisoner, on taking her seat, adjusted her shawl so as to sprawl a portion of it over witmess's person, sad this circumstance excited her suspicion; so that she removed the shawl, end caught hold of Ler purse in her pocket. When the missals reached the London-road, the tall man intentionally, as she believed, placed his feet on her drew, and also leaned forward so as to force his knees against hers in an offensive manner. She (witness) instantly moved away her knees, and in order to remove her diem from his feet, she was obliged to take her hand out other pocket, leaving her purse there safe. In a moment or two afterwards the omnibus stopped, and the tall man got out first, and was followed by the prisoner and the other man, and it then occurred to her (witness) that she was robbed, and she instantly found her parse was gone. On getting out of the omnibus, witness saw the prisoner and the two men in Marsball.street, and on seeing her they seemed Ito shale something amongst them and ran along Marsha -1 street into St. George's-road, and the men got away. Witness followed the prisoner, and had not lost sight of her more than • moment or so until she same up with her, and charged her with robbing her of her purse. The prisoner replied that she was quite mistaken, and that she was • respectable married woman. Witness told her that if she was • respectable person she wouid not be guilty of the set of robbing her of her purse, and then laid hold of her. The prisoner begged that she would not give her into custody. and offered it she did not do so to give her her !yid watch and chain, and took the watch and chain from her neck and offered them to her, hut she declined to accept them, saying that • purse, with the money it contained, was the property she had stolen from her. The prisoner then requested she would go into • eab with her, but this she also deelineo. and held she prisoner until a policeman same up and took her into custody. The prisoner was seen to throw something into a garden, and oa mantling there the sum of 10s. 21. was found in shillings, sixpences, and fonrpenny pieces, being the exact silver money which witness had in her pocket. One of the sixpences she could swear to. Before committing the prisoner for trial, Mr. Norton com plimented the complainant upon her conduct in connexion with the robbery, and also on the very sensible description of pocket she wore, adding that it was quite idle to attempt to check the crime of street and omnibus robbery while the present fashion of pocket motioned to be adopted by ladies. SOUTHWARK. - - Thomas Musgrove, as imagine driver, and Ames Carew, a porter, in the employ of the London, Brighton, and South Coast kailway Company, were charged on of steal ing a diamond ring. It appeared that Musgrove took the ring, which was worth about 201, to Mr. Walinsley, a jeweller, neer St. George's Church, Southwark, and offered it for sale at 30a. Mr. Walanley denim= the ring, suspecting it was stolen, sad afterwards both prisonen celled together at his shop, but as their explanations ware unsatisfactory they were given into castndy. It was stated that two boxes of valuable jewellery had recently been stolen oa the Brighton Railway. The prisoners were remanded for further inquiry. MARKETS. ..n OOTTOlL—Livsaroor..

Tux CROPS IN SUSSEX. Home few pieces of Talavera wheat have already been cut, as also some winter oats ; but reaping will not be general for ten days or a fort night. We have carefully examined a large breadth of wheat. In some instance* it is blighted to a considerable extent ; there is also some mischief done by the midge ; and in some places there is a good deal of red gum. Taking all things into consideration, we are of opinion that the wheat crop will not exceed en average. We now want some forcing weather to ripen the crone; but latterly they have made but little progress, and the harvest must be late. Potatoes are looking remarkably well. We have heard some complaints of the disease, but so far as our own obser vation goes we have seen no symptoms of it, and then is every indication of an abundant crop. Oats and barley are generally good. In many places the barley is much laid, and the quality will be much deteriorated; but there is every prospect of a large yield. The •bowers we have bad have been moat beneficial to the turnips and marigold wends ; and there is every prospect of an abundant crop of both.—Brighton Gosette.
