SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. Many of our readers will have little tEfficulty in recognising in the masterly communication " on the Ballet," under the signature of " No Tenant at Will," inserted in this day's Chronicle, the " Quiet Looker on," to whom they have been more than once in debted for essays on the same question, and others of deep political interest, characterised by the grasp of mind and fairness of argument for which this writer's productions are so eminently distinguished. It W:l3 hoped by Earl Grey and Lord John Russell, when the Reform Bill was first proposed to Parliament, that the extension of the franchise would raise the enfrans ' chised classes in their own estimation, and give to the higher classes a strong motive for so co ducting them selves as to merit the esteem and regard of those on uhom they would be dependent for their influence. 211 as! the good which the Bill may have effected in li it respect - has been but as a drop in the ocean ecmpared with the evil occasioned by the bad feelings everywhere engendered by the attempts :( overawe and intimidate voters, of which it has been productive. The middle classes have been exposed under this Bill to an amount of suffering which has too frequently led them to curse the day it passed. Our correspondent, than whom no man has better opportunities of knowing the sentiments of the middle classes in many parts of the country, does not hesitate to declare, that " the Bill has notoriously been, to a very late extent, a wretched failure," and that " the first triumphant exultation about it has long since passed away." This is strong language ; but we have too much reason for affirming that it will be echoed by thousands upon thousands throughout the country. The Ballot, as a remedy for the insuf ferable evil of intimidation and the punishment of voters for the conscientious exercise of their right of euffrage, will be found effective. In some instances it may screen corruption, and it is not altogether free from objection ; but on the whole the good so predo minates ov er the evil, that it is now generally assumed ~..• no one Who really has at heart the putting a stop to the coercion of voters is opposed to the Ballot. All legislation is tentative or experimental ; and it can he no reproach to Earl Grey and the other authors of the Reform Bill, that they did not at once produce a mea sure which should work without inconvenience. The idea of any measure being final, is irreconcileabl e , in fact, with all sound legislative notions ; for what is the use of a Legislature, if recognised evils be excluded from its consideration. When, there fore, the host of evils springing out of the exposure of voters to the vengeance of those who seek to coerce them is fairly placed before any upright Statesman, we cannot help thinking that he will 'honestly endeavour to discover a remedy. There is no great question on which the people are so unanimous as on the Ballot. • They laugh to scorn all the arguments which have hitherto been urged against the measure in either House of Parliament. Their minds are too English to allow them for a moment to listen to the objection that the Ballot is un-English. In short, to the plain, unsophisticated minds of the middle classes, it appears that the arguments of the opponents of the Ballot are mere subterfuges, advanced by men whose real grounds of dislike to it are founded on a persuasion that the people ought only in appearance to possess the right of voting for their Representatives. And we cordially hope ere long to see Earl Grey, the father of the Re form Bill, among the most prominent supporters of a measure essential to preserve its integrity and.to secure its blessings, which are now endangered by the bad uses to which the Tories have perverted its provisions, and which certainly never were in his Lordship's con templation when he endeavoured to give effect to the principles with which his political life had been iden tified.--Morning Chronicle. One of the Ministerial Papers attempted last night a defence of the Whig-O'Connell compact. We have looked with some curiosity for an exhibition of whole hoggism on this subject, and we look for it still. The small talk of Cupid could hardly be supposed, even by those who gave that " little all," to be worth much in such a matter. When Boswell told Johnson that he had been to a Quaker's meeting, and heard a woman preach, Johnson said, " Sir, a woman preaching is like a dog walking on his hind legs ; it is not well done, but you are surprised that it is done at all." So we say of this Ministerial attempt to defend the Whigs for so slavishly kissing the hand of O'Connell within a few weeks after he had kicked them so hard. It is apropos to a passage which we yesterday quoted from the Journal des Debats that our Ministerial contemporary breaks silence. And how ? Why, smarting under a severe chastisement which the Journal des Debats, a few days since, administered to this Ponderous-Levity print, it quotes from the National some flippant obser vetions which are intended to disparage the Journaldes Debats. We need hardly remind our readers that the National is a savage republican paper, which is chiefly known to Englishmen by its constant and wanton display of the bitterest malignity to this country and to all ite institutions, expressed in language coarser, perhaps, than any that is applied to us, except by the Carlist and Ultra-Papist Gazette de France, from which Cupid will doubtless take his next quotation. This comes of being connected with the Foreign-office. We cannot be surprised that the Republican and the Protestant exterminating prints of France are in favour with the intruments of a Ministry who are wholly dependent on O'Connell's patronage, and who have declared that they desire to give " a heavy blow and a great discou ragement to Protestantism" here. If, however, we are to deal seriously with what this print puts forth in lieu of argument on this subject, we have little to do but to state the stuff. It runs thus :—" Instead of imposing his general views as conditions of supporting the Ministry, O'Connell expressly postpones tho.cc views to the present neces.citq of supporting an Mini nistration disposed to do jugtice to Ireland." This means, of course, that O'Connell postpones, not his views, but the realization, or the attempt to realize them. He has, however, no " general views ;" this is a phrase stigested by the daily dishonest practice of the shuffling Whigs and their (if possible) less scru pious satellites. O'Connell's views are not general, but specific ; and so clearly described that no one can misunderstand them. And what are those views? Why, principally, the destruction of the Protestant Church in Ireland, and the disinemlherment of the empire. With the full knowledge, because with the plainest and fullest declaration of this fact, published under O'Connell's. own need, the Ministers treat with O'Connell for his support of them on all other mat ters, and his putting off these for the present. Now, were the destruction of the Protestant Church and the Re peal of the Union questions upon which the Cabinet vre:c divided—matters upon which any great difference of opinion existed in political parties—this understand ing between the Ministers and O'Connell would not, politically, wear the base complexion it now assumes. But we publish to-day, very appropriately for our argument, a letter of Mr. Encas Macdonnell, in ‘s hich the fixed determination of the Whigs to re sist the Repeal of the Union is recorded in not - eery flattering language to O'Connell. We m., g ht a dd uce other passages much stronger—such as the declara tions of Lord Althorp and of Lord Ebringtou, that they would prefer civil war to the dismemberment of the empire, upon wnich O'Connell insists, as an ultimate measure it is true, but a measure un doubtedly ' 9 be consum.:nated sooner or l a t er . E qua lly stro . og have been the declarations of the Whigs agc.ati4t the complete annihilation of the .Protestant Clinrch in Ireland, though they have no objection to give it " a heavy blow and great discouragement," like cowardly rogues, who, with every disposition to commit a burglary if they dared, content them selves with breaking a window and running away. Do such people, bad as they are, act consistently in paying O'Connell for " postponing his views ?" Sup pose a man were to say to a gang of n o t or i ous b urglars, " The house I live in is pleasant and profitable, but it is very •uncertain how long I shall hold it, for I am tenant only at the will of my landlord ; you tell me you mean to break into it and steal : pray postpone your views till my tenancy expires, and then do what you like. In the meantime here's money for you--it is the bird in hand, you have still the bird in the bush when we go." Would this be I Veetthipett in the tenant ? But the tenant in this case / "7 - ------ exicehepresents the Whigs ; the house represents Ae - tha-rratiou' , the nation's honour, and the nation's wel re ' fares-4Eile the burglars are Daniel O'Connell and fi r- BuN ; LoNlioN, stIPTVkuItIR 1, 184. blood.

It is an awful lesson for England, and we trust that it will prevent any ridiculous interference with the dortisstic concerns of other nations in ftiturei Post, The evening organ of the Ministry in attacking the House of Lords for the intractable spitis which that branch of the Legislature has shown to the soliittiaticis of Ministers, in regard to certain questions proposed by the Cabinet as part of the stipulated consideration for the support of O'Connell, says, " From what mea sures have the Lords escaped ? Have they got rid of the Irish Church question ? Of the Irish Municipal question? The two great subjects of alarm. Have , hey rendered Protestantism more secure or respected than it was ? Is there any evil that threatens the Established Church in Ireland which has been removed or mitigated by their opposition to the measures offered for their acceptance ? Do they not know that, time after time, those questions will be forced upon them, and that the most they could hope to obtain by a suc cessful obstinacy would be that the Irish Church question should be left undetermined until time, and that no long time, should have terminated the contest by terminating the existence of the subject of dis pute ? And is this the moment for raising a shout of triumph, as though by stopping these measures for a season they had been permanently set at rest ?" The answer to all this half-bullying, half-whining remon strance, is very short and simple. The Lords opposed the measures in question because they felt it their duty to do so, and because they were resolved not to allow themselves to be made the accomplices with Minis ters in registering the decrees of O'Connell, and sa ctifleing to his bigotry and ambition the Protestant Church in Ireland and British connection. The Lords acted upon principle, and not upon the suggestions of a miserable expediency, such as constitutes the only motive of action with the Melbourne Ministers, who were Conservative Whigs with Lord Grey Yesterday, and are Destructive Whig-Radicals with O'Connell to clay. But it seems the Lords, by opposing the infamous " appropriation clause," and the Bill for establishing O'Conneli's " normal schools of political agitation," have not got rid of those measures ; they are, it appears, to be brought before them again. Well, what of that ? The Lords will still prefer the dictates of sacred duty to the commands or wishes of the Ministers, who, for the sake of preserving office by the least reputable of all means, would " inflict a heavy blow and great discou ragement on Protestantism." Their resistance to dangerous, unconstitutional, and anti-Protestant mea sures, hitherto has had the effect of staying the march of destruction, while the public mind, which the reform excitement had led away in some degree from the dominion of calm reason, has sobered down into re flection and learned to distinguish between measures of improvement and destruction. This is a great service which the Lords have rendered to the country. They guarded the Thermopyla of the Constitution until the British public, made sensible of the danger which beset their invaluable inheritance, have rallied to its relief. The last elections have saved the Con stitution, but there would have been no Constitution to save if the Lords had not so long resisted all the efforts of its destructive enemies.—Morning Herald.

Yesterday a young man, thittied Charles Winter, a cab owner, residing in Tenter -street, Moorgelds, emended be fore Mr. Alderman VENABLE6, to answer the complaint of Martha Wormhill, a widow (who appeared to be 15 years older than the defendant), for obtaining a gold seal and other articles from her, under the false pretence that he in tended to marry her. " It v.cms," said the Alderman, addressing the defend ant, "that there have been some loving discourses between you and this lady, and, understanding you were about to marry her, she bought for you a waistcoat." " It . was very kind of her, no doubt," said the defendant. "You have altered your mind, however," continued the Alderman ; " and I think it is your duty to take care that she shall sustain no pecuniary loss on your aceount." The defendant said—Well, ho would give her a crown for the waistcoat. The widow said, she had bought other things for him as well. There were six pair of stockings, 15s. ; linen for two shirts, 255. ; making ditto, 4s. ; two flannel shirts, 13s. 6d. Three neckerchiefs, 'lc 6d. The defendant looked aghast as she recounted these articles, and observed, that she had bought and given these things to him. The Alderman said, that was because he had promised to marry her. Tho cabman declared he had not made that promise. She had promised to marry him. The Alderman said he saw how it was. The defendant, finding this woman too credulous, and not content with sporting with her feelings, he wanted to cheat her out of her property. If he did not pay the complainant for all the articles he had obtained from her, he should deal with him in a way he did not anticipate. The defendant paid the complainant 4/. for the various articles, and was discharged. his traitorous crew in Ireland. The tritth is, that in this compact the patties embody the characters of Peacham and fessekil. to the very life. And what does the Ponderous-Levity' print mean by describing the present Administration as on e "disr*ei,i6 ii' l o justice to Ireland?" O'Connell describes jiistice to ► Ireland thus t— Justice to Ir e l a n d demands princi lrilig these four thihrs :-1.

These are the primary meaemes to which Ireland is entitled, and 1 1 to the attainment of which, duty to her requires every possible exertion of her representatives." Are the Ministers disposed to concede these measures ? Cer tainly not, unless they be forsworn ; and therefore the compact between them and O'Connell is a deceitful I fraud practised on the country, for the personal benefit of the parties to the compact, and at the expense of the country. The Ministers, and the persons in their pay, may depend upon it, that in Great Britain at least the eyes of the public are opened to the want of prin ciple which O'Connell and the Whigs have equally displayed in this a lli ance . It may b e that O'Connell will prove a successful impostor still in Ireland. In deed, in Ireland he is better backed than in this coun try. For instance, in order to reconcile his " beloved countrymen" to his being paid for postponing the re medies for their " intolerable wrongs," he says, " Look at the zeal and good disposition of your Lord- Lieutenant : observe what a police you have got : the Orange assassins will not repeat their noon-day mur ders," Sec. His " beloved countrymen" have but too clearly proved that they perfectly understand this lan guage ; the Lord-Lieutenant has but too well made good the character O'Connell gives him. The police do not interfere where the O'Connellites rise in suffi cient numbers to maltreat or murder the Protestants ; or, if they do, Lord i\lulgrave dismisses them or re moves them. Witness the recent occurrence at Car low. These are the present advantages which O'Con nell holds out to his party in Ireland as a set off against his own pay, and how that party turns them to account may be learned by a perusal of the " Irish outrages" which fqr a week past have daily filled a column of our impression.— Times. It is now understood that Parliament meets for the dispatch of business on the 13th of November. That will be a sad thy for the Tories. It will be the be ginning of their sorrows. When the series of cala mities which will then commence will close, is more than the most gifted of themselves can tell. That it will be a very protracted series is a fact of which there can be no question. It is Swift, we believe, who says, " that blessed is he who expecteth nothing, for he shall not be disappointed." The Tories ought to be, if they arc not, in this happy situation ; for surely they have not the most slender grounds for ex pecting anything. The nearer the meeting of Par liament approaches, the reater becomes the confidence which the peopl e o f England repose in the Melbourne Administration. The Tories themselves are well aware of this ; and the knowledge of the fact is gall and wormwood to them. That is the reason why they have abandoned the intention of starting Sir Edward Sugden in opposition to the present Speaker. While the momentary intoxication into which they suf fered themselves to be thrown by the victories they achieved in the late election contests for the counties was at its height, the Tories were full to overflowing of the project of putting up Sir Edward Sugden for the Speakership ; but, on the return of their senses, by no means great at any time, they saw that they had over-estimated their triumphs, and that the " re-action" of which we had for some time heard so much, was all in favour of the Melbourne Ministry, and this not only out of the House, but among its Members. We begin to think that, looking at the aspect of public matters altogether, the Tories themselves have at last discovered that they ought to abandon all hope of a return to power. Such a contingency, at all events, becomes every day more and more improbable in the view of every body else. A Tory Government could not, to speak a truth, now stand for a month. Supposing that that party were— a very improbable supposition certainly—to defeat the present Administration on any question which that Administration considered vital to its character, and that consequently it would be broken up—supposing such an unlikely contingency to occur, that would not improve the prospects of the Tories in the slightest degree ; for were they to he restored to power to-mor row, it would only be to be unceremoniously ejected from Downing-street in a week or two afterwards, to make way for the return of Lord Melbourne and his colleagues. A Tory Government is altogether out of the question with the present intelligence and present temper of the country. Until a free press is abolished—until a Star Chamber regime is restored, or a censorship esta blished, liberal opinions will prevail, and liberal opi nions and a Tory dynasty are as incompatible as are light and darkness.—Morning Advertiser. The Morning Chronicle yesterday contained a de fence of the Portuguese Charter, and instituted very fairly a comparison between it and the Constitution which has been established in its place. We agree with the Chronicle that the Charter of Don Pedro is a much sounder and much safer form of Government than that which failed twice before, and against which a part of the nation is at present in arms. But, that we must sulnnit to our Contemporary is not the ques tion. In order to judge fairly of tire motives and con duct of the Portuguese people we should ascend to a higher period. We must go back to the year 1826, when a British diplomatist brought home that Charter; to 1827, when a British force of 5,000 men im posed it on the nation, at the point of the bayonet ; and to 1833, when tire British Government, under the guise of neutrality, and British subjects re cruited in England, in defiance of the laws of the land, forced it down the throats of the people, and upset the form of Government to which they were attached. We shall find that on all these occasions the voice of the nation was une quivocally pronounced against the Charter, and that nothing but the physical force and moral aecendancv of Great Britain could have established it. In 1827 it was rejected even by the Regency and Ministry to whom it was addressed, and had not Mr. Carmine furnished hi s f amous exped i t i on it would have perished in a week. In 1828 it was overthrown by the general consent of the Clergy, nobility, and middle classes, while th e sma ll party that took up arms in its behalf, were .io among abandon m the ent e rpri se f r o the want of sympathy forcedmpath the people. And in 1833 it i was establish e d b y t h e di rect influence of Great Bri -1 .ain n the first instance, and subsequently by the force of the Quadruple Treaty. Strangers have imposed that Charter, and it is for that reason it is hated by every man who has not a personal interest in its support. The Portuguese nation was happy under old laws and the ancient form of Government. These laws were, perhaps, unsuited to any other country, and the despotic authority of the Crown would not be rt lished by persons practically educated for the posses sion of freedom—but the laws and the Government were mild in their operation, and the people desired no change. We have seen, however, that their feel ings were despised, their opinions not consulted, and that a charter was given at the will of a Prince who had renounced his allegiance, and was forced upon them by foreign bayonets. Are not these good rea sons wiry the Portuguese nation should reject that Charter, and attempt to free themselves from the in fluence by which they were enslaved ? What benefit have they derived from the Charter ? None. Inde pendently of all the horrors of a civil war by which the country was desolated for two years, a debt of 11 millions of pounds sterling has been created, to be ab sorbed by those who are emphatically called devoristas or devourers. Where is that money now ? Has the commerce or manufactures of the country been im proved ? Has its credit been consolidated ? No. A general blight has fallen on every species of native in dustry, and the money has vanished in the hands of those by whom the revolution was effected. It has enriched the loan jobber and the speculator in human PORT OF BALLINA. We understand that the Committee for improving the port of Ballina and the navigation of the Moy river, are now actively engaged in taking the necessary steps to attain the accomplishment of this most desirable objr - ct. Mr. Wm. Bald, civil engineer, has been for some time examining the ship channel of the Moy, and we are informed ('.rat consider able improvements can be effected at a moderate expense. The channel is capable of being made much more direct, and even deeper, which would tend to increase and preserve the depth of water on the Moy bar. The principle of the improvement of this harbour is, to permit as great a flow of the tidal waters inwards as possible, thereby increasing the scouring power seawards ; and also to give a better regu lated velocity and direction to the ebbing and flowing cur rent in the navigable channel of the river. Mr. Bald has strongly recommended a lighthouse to be erected on the most eastern of the Carrig Phadrick rocks, and a distinguishing round tower on the most western and seaward of this extensive and dangerous reef of rocks, which lie on the west side of the Bay of Kilalla, and within one mile of Poulaclogar, where the French army landed under General Humbert. The erection of a lighthouse and tower ou the Carrig Phadrick rocks would be of great and important service to the floating wealth and safety of the navigator when overtaken by tempest and storm on these shores. Indeed, the want of a lighthouse has been long felt by the shipping on this coast. Looking at the seaward position of the Moy as a har bour, and the prevailing south-westerly winds, it offers vast facilities to commercial intercourse with the ports of Glas gow and Liverpool. The great capabilities of this interesting portion of Ireland, its fertility, the extent of unconnected existing natural lake and river navigation, requiring little to connect them, offer greater facilities than any other part of Ireland to the ex tension of inland navigation, and at a comparatively small expense—the long and inviting level reaches of the Moy, of the Turlough river, and the navigation of the Lough Conn, being more that; twenty miles in length. If this lake, with its navigable rivers, were connected to Ballina and the stnary of the Moy, a very considerable traffic would spring up, its the export of timber, turf fuel, sandstone, grariite, of which there is an abundance of the most beautiful and du rable kind perhaps to be found in any part of the world, from the dark grey to the bright Egyptian red, so much admired. The many capabilities which this country presents calls forth rcil •ctions of regret that it has been so very long neglected, and which so very little would improve, and make it even productive in point of revenue to the State, and also to the trading and manufacturing interests. Considering the water power of the Moy alone, fed by a basin of more than 900 square miles of country, presenting falls of twelve, fifteen, and thirteen feet, capable, under proper management, of working machinery to RR extent of power eqiiivalent to half the force of all the steam-engines i❑ the city of Glasgow—Lough Conn, with an area of 14,000 acres, and a fall of nearly forty feet to low water level, could be readily governed by dam and sluice, and con verted into an immense water power. And, besides, there is a tract of country adjoining this rich and beautiful dis tract, stretching towards the western shores of Erris, of more than 200,000 acres, consisting of undrained and un cultivated wastes, mostly all lying on limestone and lime stone gravel, possessing ample falls to drain every part, and capable of being all converted into productive land. Here is a country, in point of water-power, of lake and river navigation, of improvable waste land, comparable to any part of the Caned is, Van Diemen's Land, or New South "Wales. Were a few thousand pounds expended in improvements in this large district of country, it would in a very short period indemnify the State three-fold. Mr. Bald, in his examination before the Committee of the House of Commons on Connaught lakes, in 1835, says— " I think it would be extremely advantageous to the trade of that rising country that ships should be enabled to sail up to the net Ind basin situate in the Moy, and which is at Vie bridge of, Ballina. But it would also be very de sirable to improve a portion of the channel of the lower part of the Moy river navigation, between the Pool and the end of Bertragh Island. Ido not know of any tidal river navi gation in Ireland where so much improvement could be ef fected at so moderate an expense, and be attended with so much benefit."— Freeman's Journal. At the Guildhall, Exeter, on Saturday, a girl named Shapland summoned another girl, named Dymond, on a charge of assaulting her. The defendant totally denied the assault, but said that plaintiff had often accused her "of being a witch," and used some very personal and violent language towards her, to show her dislike for sorcery I The plaintiff, on being asked by the magistrate if she really thought defendant a witch, said, " Yes : she had been obliged to draw a circle round her door to prevent defendant from coming in. This, however, had not succeeded, for she had taken the shape of a black cat, and had come in and run over the room ; she had then changed into the Jack of Hearts,' on which plaintiff was so frightened that she fainted away ! Several times plaintiff had endeavoured to catch the cat, and to put its head on the fire, and had procured a long needle to draw its blood, which would have dissolved the charm ; she had also applied to a conjuror, named Baker, to charm it, but it was of no use !! I " The magis trates dismissed the complaint. Extensive and most calamitous inundations are stated to have occurred in Wallachia and Bessarabia, occasioned by uninterrupted rain, during a period of more than six weeks. Several hundred lives have been lost, and the de- Oruct494 of property is supposed to have been very great. QUEEN-SQUARE. Yesterday, Messrs. Moseley and Inkpen, stage-coach proprietors residing at Croydon, were summoned before Mr. GaEGORIE and Mr. WHITE, by Carter, the informer, to answer an information under the Hackney Carriage Act, which charged the driver of their stage-coach, num bered 1,107, with having gone out of the line of road to take up a passenger,• and thereby rendering his em ployers liable to a very heavy penalty. Carter stated his case. The book-keeper at the Ship, Charing-cross, deposed that Mr. Hodson, the gentleman taken up, had sent his servant to the booking-office in order that a place might be reserved for him ; but the coach was to take him up in Dean's-yard, as he had met with an accident and was un able to walk. Mr. GREGORIE-It is quite evident that if the coach had not driven there a hackney-coachman would have been hired for the occasion, and this is a question which mate rially affects hackney-coachmen. Mr. Moseley said that if a conviction were levied, it would also greatly affect stage-coach proprietors. The MAGISTRATES said that it was a case which re quired a great deal of consideration, and ordered it to be adjourned for their adjudication. W OR SHIP- ST REE T. Yesterday, an Irishman was placed at the bar before Mr. BROUGHTON, having been brought up in the custody of a police constable, charged with disturbing a branch establishment of the Teetotal Society, which holds its meet ings at Providence Chapel, Chapel-street, Featherstone street, St. Luke's. The prisoner said that he had a friend who called to see him, when they drank two pints of ale. Knowing that be had violated the laws of the Society, he went to the meet ing to make his apology, and to comply with the punish ment, when on gaining the fresh air he found his senses fail him. The prisoner observed that it was not surprising the liquor had such an effect, as he had not taken a drop of beer or spirits for the last four months. He was considered so good a member that he had received a medal. Mr. BROUGHTON asked the prisoner if he had the medal with him. The prisoner replied that he had not, but added that since he had joined the Society he had found his health much improved, in addition to which he had saved near 31. during that period. A member stated that he had been a member about six teen months, since which time his common beverage at dinner and supper has been water. He finds his mind clearer, and his strength and constitution much improved. Mr. BROUGHTON remarked he thought that beer in mo deration would do no harm. The member said that they advocated total abstinence, since one glass led to another, and then people made beasts of themselves. The prisoner was fined five shillings for having been drunk. TOWN-HALL. Yesterday, as the business of the day was about to finish, a well-dressed, aged man, accompanied by a gentleman, the friend of Sir Thomas Hardy, made the following appli cation : The old man stated his name to be Thomas Allen, seventy-three years of age, born at Burnham Thorpe, in the county of Norfolk, and held a situation in the kitchen of Greenwich Hospital ; that he accompanied the late Admiral Lord Nelson through the whole of his career of glory, was at the boarding of the Spanish Admiral's ship, the San Josef, and at Teneriffe G eld up the wounded arm of the Gallant Admiral, while it was being amputated, had been in fifteen general engagements, and forty skirmishes ; the veteran then proceeded to say, that in consequence of a rumour, that the jewels of the late Admiral Lord Nelson were deposited in the Town-hall, Southwark, having reached the ears of Admiral Sir Thomas Hardy, Governor of Greenwich Hospital, lie was deputed by him to ascer tain whether there was any foundation for the report, and, if so, to request permission to view the same. Several relics of the late Admiral's being actually in safe keeping at the Hall, the old man and his friend were allowed to in spect them, and they pronounced them to be the property of the l a t e Ad m i ra l, but only worn by him on ordinary oc casions. The principal articles arc, the insignia of a Tur kish order, presented by the Grand Seignior, the Star of the Order of the Bath, and several inferior orders of merit, &c. The parties then having obtained the object of their mission, took their departure to report progress. These relics of the illustrious warrior came to be placed In their present situation, owing to the late Alderman Joshua Jonathan Smith, into whose hands the property came as trustee, and afterwards executor to the late Lily Hamilton, being perpetual Alderman at the Town-hall, and by him deposited there for safety. LAMBETH-STREET. Yesterday Mr. J. Braithwaite, the engineer to the Eas tern Counties Railway Company, appeared before Messrs. HARDWICK and COMBES, on a warrant, charging him with violently horse-whipping Mr. Lees , a surveyor and agent to Mr. Manby, a gentleman residing at Stratford. After Counsel had been heard on both sides, Mr. HARDWICK observed that they, the Magistrates, had heard quite enough of the case to satisfy them as to the decision they would give, and which would be quite distinct from the question of legal right. Mr. Lees had certainly, from his own showing,', assumed the right—the point at is sue----by stopping the horse of Mr. Braithwaite ; and the question was, whether his doing so was sufficient to justify such violence as that sworn to. In his (Mr. Hardwick's) opinion it was not ; yet, at the same time, they could not shut their eyes to the fact, that the seizing the bridle of the horse was assuming a right, and if the defen dant had only done that which was merely necessary to get rid of such an obstacle, they might consider it a justifica tion. The question, therefore, was the excess of punish ment, and to persons in the station of life as the parties in the case the infliction of even the highest penalty they (the Magistrates) could inflict (W.) would be a mere mockery to anything like justice. They would not, there fore, decide the matter in that way, but would call on the defendant to find bail to keep the peace towards the com plainant—a course which would not preclude the parties from any other proceedings they might think proper, but was merely for the preservation of the peace. Mr. COMBES perfectly concurred in all that dropped from his brother Magistrate, and begged that it might be dis tinctly understood that they did not offer any opinion what ever as to the right of road or the question of property ; all they had to do with was the preservation of the public peace. Mr. Braithwaite entered into the required sureties ; but before the parties left the office Mr. Bodkin observed that, notwithstanding what had taken place on that day, the com pany would continue to retain the use of the new road, and uphold it by force if necessary. Mr. Lees, on the contrary, declared that they should not )aye it ; so that the matter Is not likely to terminate here. THE CREW of the STIRLING CASTLE AND THE SAVAGgB ftfllewing account, which was a few days ego re ceived by the family bf Lieutenant Otter, who is officially employed at Moreton Bay, and tratigttlit!cd by the Lieute nant's cousin to the Lord Mayor yesterday, iti!l be read with much interest by all who have perused the extratifdiz nary adventures of the crew of the Stirling Castle amongst OaVagcs t- " Moreton Bay, Sept., 183 G. " I got a week's leave of absence to go down to the bay for the Piirpose of amusing myself with catching tertle. The wind proVed feveurnble fur the sport, when we had got t• the pilot's station ; and effer remaining a few days there I thought I would take a day's shoseiess at a place called braisilYe 'eland, which is situated on the north side of the bay. I accorilintfey i7eeeeeded to that place, and whilst out with my gun, fell in with the, men, whom I took to be natives. When they came up, howeeee, they addressed me to ray esteniehment, in English, and told rue dig they were part-of the crew of a eissel called the Stirling Castle, sehieh had sailed from Sydney to risineapore about three mouths preeieesly, and had been wrecked on 000 fthe Bornean reefs near the entrai:ec of Torres Straits. The whole of the crew, with the captain (Fraser') hie wife, and two mates, bad 54 -it away frorn'the wreck after a fortnight's dreadful suffering. One of the boats in which were the above-mentioned per sons and some sailors, eleven in all, had been forced to beach a little below Sandy Cape, about 200 miles to the northward of this. The other boat had parted from them a few days before, and they saw no more of it. They went on to say that soon after their landing the natives came down and took away everything from them that they had saved, stripped them all perfectly naked, forced them to fetch wood and water, and treated them with the most savage cruelty. They themselves, with another who had been obliged from weakness to stop about 25 miles behind, had managed to get aerate to the main-land, for they h a d run the boat ashore on an island. After travelling for six weeks along the coast, in which journey they suffered un consmon hardships from the cruelty of the different tribes they fell in with, they most providentially arrived at I3raisby's Island just in time to meet with me. They had crossed the narrow channel which separates this island from the main-land the day before I arrived, and as I was to leave it the next morning, it would have been long before they would have been seen or heard of, as the island is hardly ever visited, and they did not know themselves where they were or how far from the settlement. I im mediately despatched two men after the unfortunate father, who had been left behind, and he was brought to me naked, and black as the two others. After that I started for the settlement (Moreton Bay). On reporting the circumstance to the Commandant, Captain Fyars, two whale-boats were got ready, and being provisioned for three weeks, the command of the squadron was given to me, for the purpose of endeavouring to rescue the remainder of the crew, particularly the unfortunately lady, who was treated with as much cruelty as any of the rest, the savages having no regard for the beau Jew. We were provided with soups, wine, clothes, &c., for the men ; and I was furnished by two of the ladies of the settlement with fe male attire for Mrs. Frazer. A prisoner accompanied me as an interpreter, and proved of the greatest service, as he had previously been a run-away, and had resided nearly six years amongst the natives, with whose language he was well acquainted. " We lost no time in getting out to sea, and in two days after leaving the pilot station we put into a river, about seventy miles to the northward, as we expected intelligence from some of the natives. After some trouble Graham, our interpreter, heard of two white men being in the native camp, and by promising hatchets to the savages, he induced them to bring the white men in. The poor fellows were wild with joy at seeing us, and could hardly believe their senses, as they never expected to be liberated. They told us that the captain and first mate had sunk under their suf ferings ; that Mrs. Frazer was alive when they last saw her at a place about forty miles off, but undergoing every hardship and that two of the crew were drowned in en deavouring to swim the channel. I now sent one boat round the next point, about forty or fifty miles distant, whilst I started off on foot with three others, armed only with pis tols, for fear of alarming the blacks, who are much afraid of a gun. When we had proceeded about six miles, the treacherous wretches attacked us with clubs, and forced us back to the boats, as we were hardly able to keep them off with our pistols, which they had but little fear of. We were obliged to fire at them several times in our own de fence, although much against my will, as I was afraid of their retaliating upon the unhappy people in their power. We now embarked and followed the former boat round the aforesaid point into a wide bay which we reached before night. About two days afterwards we got the second mate, and such a miserable skeleton I never beheld, quite black and naked. The account of his sufferings was hor rible, as he had been tortured in a variety of ways, be cause he was too weak to drag the heavy logs of fire-wood in obedience to the wishes of the savages. We learnt to our mortification that Mrs. Frazer, who had been some time alone among the savages, had only a few days before passed the very spot where we were, but that she had been car ried off by a large party of blacks who were going to fight another tribe about some forty miles distant, and Graham told me ha knew the very spot where she was. I sent him eff directly to the place, he having previously stripped him self, the only way of escaping ill usage from these brutes, and I followed the next morning along the beach to sup port him if it should be requisite, accompanied by three men, well armed with muskets this time. After we had gone about thirty miles we came to a mark in the sand, the signal agreed upon for us to stop, and wait for him. We had not been there half an hour when he appeared, with four natives, on the top of the cliff above us. When he came down the hill the blacks, on seeing us armed, attempted to run away, but he persuaded them by promises of hatchets to turn back. I went up to meet him, and you may conceive my joy and satisfaction when he told me Mrs. Frazer was waiting on the top of the hill until I sent her a cloak. I immediately gave him a cloak and pet ticoat, and shortly afterwards she appeared. You never saw such an object. Although only thirty-eight years of age she looked like an old woman of seventy, perfectly black, and dreadfully crippled from the sufferings she had under gone. I went to meet her, and she caught my hand, burst into tears, and sunk down quite exhausted. She was a mere skeleton, the skin literally hanging upon her bones, whilst her legs were a mass of sores, where the savages had tor tured her with firebrands. Notwithstanding her miserable plight, it was absolutely necessary for us to start homeward, though she had already come nine or ten miles, as there were about 300 natives in the camp, who Graham said would most likely attack us in the night, for many of them had been unwilling to give her up. He had fortunately met with one of his former friends, a kind of chief, through whose influence lie had succeeded. So treacherous are the natives, that it is impossible to trust them for a moment. " After having given the poor woman some port wine, which I had brought with roe in a flask, and sonic tea, I which she thought was nectar from Heaven, she insisted upon immediately setting out, though we had nearly thin,- miles to walk. On the road she gave me a dismal account of her hardships and privations, interrupting herself with bursts of gratitude which it was painful to listen to. The husband had been speared before her face about a month back, and had gradually pined until his death, totally ne glected. Any attempt of her's to approach him was followed by blows on the head. W hen he died they dragged the body away by the heels, and buried it in the sand. The unfortunate first mate suffered still more. They burnt his legs with firebrands to such a degree, that, on his crawling into the water, the flesh all dropped off from the hones, which were laid bare up to the knees, and in this state he lay helpless, and was starved to death. On one occasion, when he attempted to take him a few cockles, they knocked her down with a club, and dragged her through a pond by the arms and legs, When we met her she had been two days without food, and had subsisted the most part of the time on , a kind of fern ro o t, w hi c h i s f oun d i n t h e swamps . Now and then she would get the tail or fin of a fish, when the savage s h a d a supera b un d ance . Thi s s h e was obliged to earn by dragging heavy logs of wood, and fetching water, and she was not allowed to enter their huts ; but, destitute of all covering as she was, she was obliged to lie out the whole night, even in the heaviest rains. This is but a slight sketch of what she went through. A detailed account would fill a quire of paper. When we had got about half way to our boats, we were obliged to carry her in turns. We did not arrive until the next morning, when, after taking some rest, she begged I would send her sonic hot water to her tent, as she was anxious to restore her face and person to their natural colour. J suspect she found it no easy task, as, besides her exposure to the snow and wind, the natives, in order to bring her as near as possible to their own complexion, had rubbed her every day with charcoal and hit. Our only anxiety was to get away, as we had accomplished our errand, and the blacks were keeping us constantly on the watch. We were detained by contrary winds for four days, during w hi c h one of our men had a s p ear sent through. his thigh. At length we had a fair breeze, and reached the settlement in two days and a night. .. Since our arrival Mrs. Frazer has been suffering very much from the effects of her hardships, which showed them selves in pains in her limbs and joints. She is now com ing fast round, and I dare say will be soon quite well." Typhus fever of a very violent character is now raging to an alarming extent in the parish of Bethnal green and its neighbourhood. The parish authorities have acted in a very humane and judicious manner, by affording medical and other relief to sufferers at their own homes, or sending them to the Fever Hospital, by which means the devastating malady has been kept out of the workhoUse.
