I waited close to, her about one hcur and a half, when the wind aid sea increasing, and our crew exhausted, I, with the opinion of the rest, thought the only course and the best would be to seek assistance, the wind being fair for Galita; when near the island the wind shifted round, and being obliged to keep before it, I then ran back towards the ship, but the wind still coming round, I kept away for the African shore. The wind and sea had increased greatly, and I thought it impossible for the boat to live. She had a close•reefed mizen, and we steered with oars. I beached her, there being little or no shelter. She up set in the breakers, when four of us reached the shore, the others losing their lives in the attempt; we should have done the same, but an Arab herdsman saw our boat and came down, took us to his house, gave us milk, and a large fire. Next morning we started on foot for Biserta, distant about thirty-five miles, with our host as guide, travelling as long as we could walk; when, after a few hours rest, I prevailed on some Arabs to give us horses to Biserta. From there our Consul gave me a boat to Tunis, there being nothing large enough to go to the ship in. We arrived at Tunis last night at 12 P.M., when I imme diately sent for our Consul, who came and began preparing two feluccas for me, there being no steamer here. I called this morning on the Consul-General, Sir Thomas Reeves, who is forwarding my views in every way. The Bey of Tunis has placed at my disposal one of his brigs and two gun-boats, and I hope to be under weigh with them by two P.M. The French steamer, which is hourly expected will follow, I shall search Galita and go to the wreck. Horsemen will be sent along the African coast, and you may rest assured, Sir, every thing possible shall be done, although I do it more as a duty than think ing of saving the men, for both wind and sea were very high on Tuesday. If I can hear or see nothing of the ship, I shall then proceed to Malta to give further particulars.—l remain, Sir, &c., (Signed) FRANCIS ROOKE, 3d Lieutenant, H.M.S. Avenger.

Ayling, master's assistant; John Owen, seaman. he hears a voice among the leaves calling out " Follow, follow, thou shalt win." Acting upon the suggestion, he escapes from court with his two friends, Cyril and Florian, and hastens to the palace of King Gams. Here the mystery of the refusal is explained. The Princess is distraught with a fantasy that " the woman is an equal to the man: She resolves to reclaim her sex from its imme morial degradation, and, aided (or rather instigated) by two widows, Lady Psyche and Lady Blanche, she founds a college in a portion of her father's domi nions where his kingdom adjoins that of the royal father of her betrothed. The college is for females only ; man is forbidden to enter its precincts under pain of death, and the Princess Ida condemns herself and her associates to celibacy until such time as so ciety shall be regenerated through her endeavours. Notwithstanding his agreement with his daughter, Gama is so prepossessed by the bea,ring of the young Prince, that he grants himland his companions pass ports to the forbidden boundaries. On arriving at those boundaries, however, the three adventurers are rather chagrined at the obstructions raised against their further progress by the tattle of an old inn keeper : the crow's and head, • • • • The stately flower of female fortitude, Of perfect wifehood and pure lowlihead." He had mourned " where Claribel low lieth," and had detailed even the most negative phases in the loveliness of Madeline— " Frowns perfect-sweet along the brow Light-glooming over eyes divine Like little clouds sun-fringed, are thine, Ever-varying Madeline." He had even taunted the haughty symmetry of Lady Clara Vere de Vere with that bitter rejection— " Nor would I break for your sweet sake A heart that doats on truer charms. A simple maiden in her flower Is worth a hundred coats of arms." He had pictured " shadowy, dreaming Adeline" in the light of a morning " dripping with Saban spice ; he had pencilled the " deep ambrosial smile" of Eleanore coming " slowly as through a cloud of gold ;" he had hinted the unutterable love of Fatima in her exclamation— " I will grow round him in his place, Grow, live, die looking on his face, Die, dying clasp'd in his embrace." He had pourtrayed the woes of (Enone, the joys of The May Queen, and " the gleaming shape" of ,The Lady of Shalott. His fancy had even gazed down at the Mermaid " in the purple twilights under the sea," and had tracked Godiva in her pil grimage when, clothed only in chastity, " her pal frey's footfall shot light horrors through her pulses." He had lingered over the description of Lady Clare clad in a russet gown " with a single rose in her hair," ever the abiding truthfulness of Dora, and over th e dainty graces of Lady Flora while " her dewy sister-eylids lay dreaming on her damask cheek." Even in "The Beggar Maid " he had, like King Copbetua, looked lovingly on "her dark hair and lovesome mein ;" and, 'when thin king of Queen Guinevere, he had, like Sir Launcelot, longed " To waste his whole heart in one kiss Upon her perfect lips." In the aspect of " The Sleeping Beauty" he had re cognised " a perfect form in perfect rest, and in that of the Lady of Burleigh he had depicted, with an in describable grace, the timidity of a village maiden. Then, again, in the picture of Rose, the gardener's daughter, he had shown the full day dwelling on her brow and "sunning her violet eyes ;" while in the sketch of Alice, the Miller's Daughter, he had lin gered over the loveliness of her " ripe mouth," and had exclaimed with tender simplicity— " Untouch'd with any shade of years, May those kind eyes for ever dwell ! They have not shed a many tears, Dear eyes, since first I knew them well." After all these bewitching delineations, it will scarcely be credited that the original intention of Mr. Tenny son's new poem appears to have been satirical towards the whole race of women. "The Princess," indeed, seems to be the development of an idea which was in y th a Nee petulanti,depe ao n ke t a tnee l s l r p dop r rbo o eeu n e o t a u tr nnoi on ce ah e n d tAoo.f l in n ttheh e ‘ wo ‘ fef i O iekr e lnef k er.

Those who may peruse only the commencement of " The Princess" will be puzzled at the invidious light in which women are portrayed by one whose principal celebrity has been acquired a s their panegyrist ; it will seem to them a very bewil dering anomaly that women should be subjected to the deliberate sarcasm of Alfred Tennyson, of that exquisite lyrist who had immortalized so many angel faces, embalming their beauties in the amber of his song, and who had associated his own name so inti mately, with those of his creations—Lilian, Mar garet Isabel, Madeline, Eleanore, CEnone, Claribel, Adeline, Rose, Alice, Oriana, Lady Clara Vere de Vere, Fatima, Dora, Mariana, Lady Clare, the May Queen, Lady Flora, the Li)? of Shalott, Godiva, Alice, the Beggar Maid, the Sleeping Beauty, Queen Guinevere, and the Mistress of Burleigh, "Burleigh House by Stamford town." Such is nevertheless tha _ THE DOUBLE MURDER. A CONFESSION FROM THE MURDERESS. The remains of the two children (Blake) murdered by Harriet Parker, i . . n Cupid's-court, G o ld en -lane, were yesterday burned at ,. St. Luke's. Th e f ather had s e p ara t e d f rom his wife, and was living with Parker. They both however, yesterday, foll owe d The husband has re their c hild ren to t h e grave. ceived a letter from the Rev. George Jepson, chap lain, containing a confession of Harriet Parker, re apecting part of her former conduct towards Blake's wife, from which the following is an extract:— " House of Detention, Jan. 7, 1848. '` Robert Bl a k e, — I am requested by Harriet Parker t o wr i te to you, and express from hern the re gret sh e f ee l s at the cou e of life she has led in She "ion with yourse l f during the last three years. wish es to remind you of a letter you received soon after t stin gi r your separ a ti on f rom your w i fe, insin thatt,he stating, that she had been unfaithful, and was not child to which she was about to give birth Your own. H arr i et Parker states that she wrote that letter (or caused it to be written) in order to confir m the separation of yourself and wife ; that the charm contained in it was false, and that she never knew anything affecting your wife's character. She now makes this st atement as the only r e p ara ti on she can m a k e to your inju d re wife.,, " He always made a point to post with mares ; His daughter and his housemaid were the boys. The land he understood for miles about Was till'd by women ; all the swine were sows, And all dogs A happy thought recurs to the Prince—he and his attendants will disguise themselves as females. Their host obtains the " gear" for them, and they ride on wards to the college. On entering its streets, they— " Could not hear each other speak for noise Of clocks, and chimes, like silver hammers falling On silver anvils, and the splash and stir Of fountains spouted up and showering down In meshes of the jasamine and the rose." Having penetrated into this beautiful region, the Prince writes a note to Lady Psyche (because she is the prettiest and the best-natured), desiring to be enrolled among her pupils. He disguises even his penmanship, writing in a hand eminently feminine— " In such a hand as when a field of corn Bows all its ears before the roaring East." At daybreak the three striplings are clad in acade mic gowns of a lilac colour and zoned with gold; they march forth " rich as moths from dusk cocoons" to pay their obeisances to the Princess. Here Ida enlarges upon the dignity of womanhood, speaking not of— " Lying stark, Dishelm'd and mute, and motionlessly pale." She sees— `The haggard father's face and reverend beard Of grisly twine, all dabbled with the blood Of his own son." sees the tenderness of Psyche for her infant; seeing these things— " Down thro' her limbs a drooping languor crept." Her icy dream of domination is dissipated; she yearns to participate in the common affections of humanity ; she bids the belligerents welcome to the hospitalities of her residence, and has the wounded Prince conveyed into her palace, so that she herself may become his physician and attendant. The aspect of the College is altogether changed— _ 4 , The doors gave way Groaning, and in the vestal entry shrieled The virgin marble under iron heels." Weeks elapse, and the Prince remains on the brink of dissolution, and in the lap of unconsciousness : " And twilight dawn'd; and morn by morn the lark Shot up and shrilld in flickering gyres, but I Lay silent in the muffled cage of life." Through all this silence and oblivion he is tended by the Princess Ida, and love for him grows up in her heart while he is still in the swoon of mortal agony. At length his recovery is sealed, and one evening he awakes to consciousness. His eyes open at first to the uncouth figures woven on the tapestry : " I saw the forms: I knew not where I was: Sad phantoms conjured out of circumstance, Ghosts of the fading brain, they seemed ; nor more Sweet Ida: palm to palm she sat: the dew Dwelt in her eyes, and softer all her shape And rounder show'd: I moved: I sighed: a touch Came round my wrist, and tears upon my hand: Then all for languor and self-pity ran Mine down my face, and with what life I had, And like a flower that cannot all unfold, So drench'd it is with tempest, to the sun, Yet, as it may, turns toward him, I on her Fixt my faint eyes, and utter'd whisperingly: If you be, what I think you, some swept dream, I would but ask you to fulfil yourself : But if you be that Ida whom I knew, I ask you nothing: only, if a dream, Sweet dream, be perfect. I shall die to-night Stoop down and seem to kiss me ere I die. " I could no more, but lay like one in trance, That hears his burial talk'd of by his friends, And cannot speak, nor move, nor make one sign, But lies and dreads his doom. She turn'd: she paused; She stoop'd ; and with a great shock of the heart Our mouths met : out of languor leapt a cry, Crown'd Passion front the brinks of death, and up Along the shuddering senses struck the soul, .And closed on fire with lda's at the lips ; fell, and fro m m i ne arms s h e r ose over noble s ham e ; and a ll r l Glowingfalser slipt from her like a robe, Till back a I self eol fv And left her wom an , l ove li er i n h er moo d Than in her mould that other, when she came " w ATA a hsn t cednh doubt e ' a d :r t t h thh e e n: From barren deeps to conquer all with love, And down the streaming crystal dropt, and she Far fleeted by the purple island-sides, Naked, a double light in air and wave, To meet her Graces, where they deck'd her out For worship without end; nor end of mine, Stateliest, for thee! but mute she glided forth, Nor glanced behind her, and I sank and slept, Fill 'd thro ' and thro' with Love, a happy sleep." little ly t ad t slmoet oosfirthUheyteteriorstipls!loakgs:el This passage would alone be sufficient to stamp the volume with the signet of true poetry. It is delicate, g l ow ing, natural, eloquent, and impassioned. It is worthy of Tennyson. It is worthy of him who had already sung of the " Miller's Daughter"— She spoke at large of many things, a d opf n a mor apart, s ; e e ; And turning look'd upon your face, And rose, and with a silent grace Approaching, press'd you heart to heart." The single description we have given above would be enough of itself to float a bulkier volume than " The Princess. ' In a subsequent interview Ida bewails her bygone folly, 'until, exclaims her lover, " Her voice Choked, and her forehead sank upon her hands, And her great heart thro' all the faultful past Went sorrowing in a pause I dared not break." He reconciles his thoughts with hers as to the rela tive position of man and Woman. " Each fulfils" he says,: "Defect in each, and always thought in thought, Purpose in purpose, will in will, they grow, The single pure and perfect animal, The two-cell td heart beating with one full stroke Life." In another part he argues that man and woman should by communion assimilate to the better qualities of each other, lie gaining in sweetness and moral eleva tion, and she in mental breadth and capacity— ,' TILL AT THE LAST SHE SET HERSELF TO MAN, LIKE PERFECT MUSIC 'UNTO NOBLE WORDS." Such is the moral, the purpose, the truth, the senti ment by " The Pr incess. " ment procla -d lt is one well adapted to the genius s).

Without preparation, without warn ing, with all his sins, if he had them, unthought of by him, you sent him without the means of one mo ment's reflection or repentance before the judgment seat of God, where his immortal soul must appear before his Maker. Such is the crime of which you are proved to be guilty; and there are circumstances connected with it upon which it is impossible I could forbear from noticing, for it was characterised by circumstances of daring and audacity such as have been seldom witnessed in the perpetration even of murder. The assassination of which you are con victed was committed on the 22d of last September, and on the 17th of the same month—five days pre viously—you attempted to commit a similar crime— you attempted the life of the brother of the man whom on the 22d you succeeded in slaying. After you fired at Michael Kelly, and wounded him, you at tempted to escape from justice—you knew that the officers of justice were in pursuit of you ; yet in the neighbourhood of your own residence—in the neigh bourhood of the scene of your former outrage, in which you wounded your victim, but fortunately did not kill—you pounced upon the deceased at an early hour in the evening. With, as I said, the officers of justice in pursuit of you, you entered his dwelling in which resided a number of persons—to whom you knew you were known—and then you committed the atrocious deed I have described. What could have in duced or encouraged you to commit such a crime under such circumstances ? Murder is often committed under circumstances in which the party guilty may hope to escape detection in the silence and darkness of MILITARY FORCE IN IRELAND ON THE iST OF JANISI.IIY, 1848.—The following is the official return of the troops at present in Ireland :—Cavalry.—lst Regiment of Dragoon Guards, Newbridge; 3d ditto, Piershill ; 6th ditto, Dundalk; Ist Regiment of Dragoons, Cahir; 2nd ditto Athlone; 4th ditto, Dublin; Bth ditto, Newbridge; 7th hussars, Dublin; Sth ditto, Cork; 13th Light Dr.:- goons, Longford; 17th Lancers, Dublin.

DETENTION OF HER MAJESTY'S STEAMER ACHE RON.—A notice has been issued at the General Post office that her Majesty's steamer Acheron, with mails to the Cape of Good Hope, Sydney (New South Wales), and Auckland (New Zealand), appointed to have left on the sth inst., will not leave for several days, having been detained. " Sleek Odalisques, or oracles of mode, Nor stunted squaws of West or East; but she • That taught the Sabine how to rule, and she The foundress of the Babylonian wall, The Carian Artemisia strong in war, The Rhodope that built the pyramid, Clelia, Cornelia, with the Palmyrene That fought Aurelian, and the Roman brows Of Agrippina." Soon afterwards they hear a similar oration from Lady Psyche, who sneers at the Salique laws, at little-footed China, and at hlahomet. She maintains that Elizabeth and others in arts of government, Joan of Arc and others in arts of war, and Sappho and others in arts of grace, " vied with any man." When the lecture is completed Lady Psyche con verses with her new pupils, and while talking with them detects her brother Florian through his masque rade. After a passionate scene of anguish and recri mination, they extort a vow of secrecy from Lady Psyche on the understanding that they will fly, as they came, almost immediately. Lady Blanche, how ever, " a double-rouged and treble-wrinkled dame," (a horrid old hell-kite, a sort of poetic Mrs. Pipchin !) has detected the three interlopers, and re solves to betray them, if only to pay off an old grudge against Lady Psyche. On hearing of this, the adventurers resolve to depart forthwith, but while they are planning their escape, an invitation conies from the Princess to join her in a geological and pleasure excursion. Love conquers terror, and th e P r i nce , Cyril, and Florian accompany Ida in her expedition. As they are journeying to gether through the valley, the Prince remonstrates with Ida upon her vast attempt " To assail this grey preeminence of man ' BEST TIME Fon KILLING ANIMALS.—It has lately been discovered that the flesh of animals which are killed in the middle of the night. will keep much longer than it will when they are killed in the day time; and it is for this reason preferred by those who prepare potted melts. This circumstance is very singular; for it proves that the flesh is fittest for keeping when taken from the animal at the time when the respiration is slowest and the temperature of the animal lowest.

While I refer to those circumstances of the outrage of which you are proved guilty, it is hardly neces sary to say that your case alone, if their was no other to be tried, would demand and justify the un usual interposition of the law by which this special commission now sitting has visited your county. I will not go at large into circumstances connected with the state of the county of Limerick, and its condition as affected by- outrages of this kind ; but there is one observation I cannot forbear making. Who, I would ask, was the victim in this instance ? A farmer, and a farmer not of the wealthiest class. That is a cir cumstance which clearly indicates the true character of the outrages that are now disgracing the coun try ; in fact, nothing can better show that they are levelled not solely—perhaps I m ay say in the result not chiefly—against those who possess rank and wealth. These do not belong to John Kelly, nor to that class to which John Kelly belonged ; and if those crimes are not che cked by the vigorous, and prompt, and effective a dministration of the law I think there is something in what has Occurred in the exhibition which has been made in the course of this trial, to show that the farmers of this county— the class to which your victim belonged —that not one of them can say that his dwelling_ that his health—that his family--that his pro perty, or his life, are not liable to such outrages as this of which you have been found guilty. The duty now d evolves o n me to pronounce on you the awful sentence of the law. You sent Kelly without delay or warning, to his last account. The law will be more merciful to you, lie has been sum moned by your act to the presence of his Maker without preparation ; you shall ha v e ample time to prepare for submitting your immortal soul to the in -eoulerasotffhenopdeedthGatody.ouEr s n e t n er te ti i i i i c r e i n v. o i t ll f b o e r As surely as the sun shall rise d about to name, so surely you will o ‘ at v n e p s e e o t rn i tadohtmie:erndnamtoyfitthl3igaamte is well known that the flesh of animals which have been hard driven will not keep at all.

On opening the church door the whole body of the church stood in a , mass of flames. The con fla g ration p roceeded with such rapidity, that all hope of extin g uishin g it was at an end. There was scarcely time to save some books and furni.. Lure of the church. The fire • en g i nes were on t,he spot. an d every exertion was made to save thz noble edifice, but without effect. The church and tower became a seven clock servicein t e beets prey to the flames, and nothing remains but the walls. Happily for the crowd who had assembled that the tower fell inwards, and the clock, weighing 50011 u.. was buried under the ruins. The church was built in 165'2, and has been repaired only a few years since. The cause of the fire has not yet been ascertained, but it was thought that in putting out the fire in the stove, due care was not Lulifsn to extinguish it completely. .
