When brought to an anchor. it was discovered that this vessel had on board, as pas sengers; two officers of the Constitutional army, whom the captain was required to deliver into the comedy of these faith-men. Aware of the treatment they were likely to experience from these inveterate enemies, be bad the gallantry to refuse compliance. observing that he bad engsged, as his paneigers, to land these officers at a , pa nicular port, and nothing but absolute force, or their own desire should compel him to land them any where elm or give them up.

Writ These copies, the result of twelve years unremitting labour, are from the pencil of U. J. C.

It is universally known that the works of Raphael have been for three centuries the admiration of Europe, and the 5 0: 1 2 1 of the oekbrated printers of our own and other countries; bat titne and the humidity of the at mosphere obliterated many of their beauties and Oared the brightness of their colouring. No complete copy of the aeries has hitherto been produced, and we may anticipate the time when these sublime productions of genius and art will have perished entirely. M. Meule *Meesher has completed the arduous undertaking of paint tor, and proposes engrasing the whole series.

They made him then call out for Andrew Devitt, and on Devitt's asking who was there, they desired him to reply " Ned M'Keon ;" on the door being opened they t cok out an old woman, named Bridge: *Keen, :tad having tied a blanket round Etlwar I *Keen's waist, they pnt Bridget 111`Keon into it, and ordered him to carry her to lots brother's house.

The tweaentation of the Reverend Can Fraser to parish of Kiltarlity, by the Commissioner of Mr. Frame of Lova, a Catholic patron. has long been a matter et dispute in the civil and ecclesiastical courts. A process of interdict was first tried ; but the Conti of Session re fused to sustain it. The Presbytery appealed to the general assembly in vain, as that body ripparced the pieseotation, and enjoined the Presbytery to instal Mr. Fraser in his office ; but they still delayed, until the Synod of Moray' in consequenneof a complaint to them, appointed a com mittee to see the Assembly's order put in force. In the mean time, a civil action was raised, stating various grounds on which the presentation ought to be trade void—the chief of which was Mr. Fraser's religious faith ; and.in consequence of delay by a presentation by a qualified patron, they insisted that the right of pre senting had fallen to the Presbytery. The Court, one Judge differing, dismissed the action as untenable, and east the Reverend Presbytery in expences.--(Srotes pa per.)
