IN Scomaren.—We stated on Saturday, that the High Court of Justiciary in kdinburgh had, on Tuesday last, proceeded to outlaw a man of the name of Spiels, who was cited to appear before it, and answer the charge of having sold blasphemous and seditious publica tions.• On the following day, the same Court sat to enter upon the trial of OBoRGE KINLocn, Esq. of Kittloch, mho stands charged with having tittered a seditious speech at a Meeting of Dun dee Radicals in Novembrr last. But he having failed to appear, sentence of fugitation was pro nounced agaiost hint ; he was declared an outlaw, his moveable goods and gear were escheat to his Majesty, and his bail bond forfeited. During the present state of the country, it is highly gratifying to see the spirit with which offers of service are contlorting to he made to Govern tient. We understand that last week, about a hurt dred•effective men belonging to the parishes of Qu e ens fe rr y and Dalinetty, made a loyal and band some offer to be trained and armed in such man lier as Government might require, for the main tenance of the internal peace of the country ; and that this offer having been presented to that pa triotic and public-spirited Nobleman the Earl of Jlopetoun, as Lord Lieutenant of Linlithgow shire, immediately on his return trout London, has been transmitted by his Lordship to- Govern inent.—We congratulate the country on such offers as this; for it is evident that whether they shall be an accepted or not, they must tend ro tranquillize the minds of the. peaceable and well disposed part of the community, and at the same trine warn the disaffected that any attempt to ex cite disorder will he instantly resisted, and must prove destructive to those only who are mad en►ugh to engage hi it.--(Edinturgh Courant, .Dec.

It is strongly con- jectured Lieutenant PARRY has passed through Lancaster Sound, as it is understood, in the event of his meeting any impediment to such procrenin, 'he was to mike the best of 'his way to Sir Tkozois Smith's Sound ; and had he been compelled to adopt this latter measure, there is every proba bility that he must have been seen or heard of by some of the whalers which were in Baffin's Bay.
