He cannot slink away into unenviable obscurity yet awhile; he can not as yet shut his ears against the roar of popular execration ; he cannot for some time to come console himself with the thought that his heartless and tyrannical proceedings are passing into oblivion. So long as one of his ictims shall continue to suffer unjust punishment, so ng will his name appear as a bye word in the leading articles of the journals of England. That at least we promise him as far as we ourselves are concerned. At present there is unfortunately too much reason for our continued reference to the miserable transactions with which the late Commander of her MalrEssry's ship Childers has become associated ; for_ several of the officers whose evil fate it was to be subject to his in solent and contumelious authority, several of those gentlemen who were driven to actual desperation by his proceedings, are still undergoing the unjust sen • tence of the court-martial whose decision is proved to have been egregiously false and exag gerated by the very wording of the subsequent sentence pronounced by the court-martial since holden at Plymouth. It will have been observed doubtless by many, from a statement made in our naval intelligence yesterday evening, that Mr SMITH, the master's assistant of H. M. S. Childers, seeing that the Lords of the Admiralty have officially withdrawn the words " with disgrace," unwarrant ably appended to Mr. SMITH'S_ discharge from the service, has resolved to commence an action at law against Mr. PITMA.N. Than this nothing can be more justifiable. Here is a master's assistant ruined for life by the appending of the words " with dis grace " to his discharge from her MAJESTY'S service : the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty expunge those two words from the discharge, declaring them to have been unwarrantably appended—and the'vic tim does what every one is empowered to do in this free country under similar circumstances, namely, proposes to enter an action at law against the party who has thus fraudulently injured his character. Meanwhile Mr. Gitaitios, the lieutenant, and Mr. ELLIOTT, the master of H.M.S. Childers, are at this very time undergoing the miseries of a cruel and undeserved incarceration, although the correctness of their representations with regard to Mr. PITMAN has been testified beyond all gainsaying, Eby the fact of the ignominious dismissal of that person from the service of her Britannic MAJESTY. No one, we take it, will, have the temerity to deny that had the trial of Mr. PITMAN been anderfr to the trial of Messrs. GRAHAM and ELLIOTT, the sentence pro nounced upon those unfortunate gentlemen would at any rate have been very materially mitigated. At the least, they would have escaped a year's imprison ment " as felons" in the county gaol at Exeter—for it would then have been manifest, as it is now, that although unquestionably culpable as having com mitted the high crime of desertion, they had been goaded on to that offence by extraordinary, and, we trust, unparalleled circumstances, by treatment such as no officer could brook, by insults such as no gentleman could passively endure, and by witnessing a systematic tyranny, such as would have been disgraceful on the part of a pirate, a bandit, or a buccaneer. Unhappily, however, for the service, and for these two ill-starred victims of Mr. PITMAN, their trial preceded that of their persecutor. Their offence was viewed through a false and exaggerating medium, and they are now subjected to treatment, the simple announcement of which must, we are sa tisfied, call forth the generou s and indignant protest of the community. To demonstrate as clearly as possible the nature of the extreme punishment which they are now groaning under, from incarceration, we transcribe as follows the letter addressed by one o" these young officers to his legal adviser at Devon port " Exeter County Gaol, Sept. IS. "My dear Sir,.—l beg to acquaint you that we are here confined as felons, and should feel grateful if you could in any way ameliorate our unfortunate position. I consider there is a mistake altogether in placing us in this gaol with the wretched beings who constitute the prisoners here. I leave everything to you, because I consider that you will not permit me to be treated in a manner more severe than that which our sentence was int Prided to express. My daily allowance of food here is: —Breakfast and supp ;. . r . 1 pint of gruel and 8 rz. of bre a d ; di nner for tour days, 3 oz. of dressed meat and 1 lb. cf p otatoes; dinner for three days, 1 pint of soup and 1 lb. of Pintoes. " Wa ara not permittel by the rules of this gaol to have anything we can pay for. We sleep i n a cell, and unless we mix svih the poor unfortunate creatures I "" . iiViSlr ..y 4kl. we have no place in which we can take r ....... a.,,. 4.119 P!. ,'nor of the gaol is an excellent man, and ~../ , - .- • - is - dc kivN. • he cannot overstep his regulations. ''' - i "C•41111 1 (ni'• ••f we are to be kept here id . this state I --: ‘ -- \ If ( frk.ittre--3te .: 4i ~ s th die. I .:sit you to take some steps 1 "" \-',, ' ht . fif . .#4.ii, Av ) t this unenviable position, and , , _ i - ••<•,- . 4 r 17 . e me, my dear Sir, - 'r. 7 -- cI• T " Ere; ;Burs tru!y and respectfully, _ ii a ls, ~ A. E. ELLIOTT, mdr " Late Mister her 111, - .jesty's ship Childers."' Such is one of the consequences cf the unmanly, dastardly, unsailor like, and thoroughly un-English conduct of Mr. J. C. PITMAN, the petty despot of the Childers ! And does this man suppose for one mo ment that the public will remain quiescent while these things still continue—does he imagine that the Press will remain dumb upon the subject out of any fribbling regard for his feelings, forsooth ? If he does—he is marvellously mistaken. We, for one, will not cease to comment in the strongest language we can employ, until we find that Mr. GRAHAM, and Mr. ELLIOTT, and Mr. SMITH, and all the other unfortunate victims of his cruelty, are released from that superfluous, or rather we should say that supplementary, punish ment which justice would rather have inflicted upon the author of their offences, upon the originator of their misfortunes, upon the cause of all this suicide, desertion, and insanity ! Justice we maintain would have placed Mr. J. C. PITMAN in the felons' cell in the Exeter county gaol, rather than Mr. GRAHAM, the Lieutenant, and Mr. ELLIOTT, the Master, of her MAJESTY'S ship Childers. Feeling thus, we cannot but declare that our whole soul revolts at the miserable punishment to which these officers are so cruelly and unjustly subjected. If ever a memorial was called for it is called for by this occurrence and these revelations— a memorial in which the People should express their disgust at the conduct of Mr. PITMAN, their deep com miseration for Messrs. GRAHAM and ELLIOTT, and their dissatisfaction at the evil results perpetually arising from the present system of courts-martial. We do here earnestly press upon the public judgment the necessity for such a memorial, and would aid it by any means at our command, as far as the metropolis itself is concerned. Such a memorial as this we cannot but think would ( oaiwn to the more rapid destruction of the existing system of courts-martial. It appears that " the good old times," when Irish magistrates carried with them their political and party predilections and prejudices to the bench of justice, are to be restored ; that the cases submitted for adjudication sire to be decided on, not according to their real merits, but according to the private views and feelings of the presiding justices. Such at least has been the principle on which a a bod3 , of " the great unpaid," assembled at Castlewelln : acted on Thursdaylast, w re h f e u n s , ed aft t e o r a receive long and informations animated discussion, d discussion, they against the persons concerned in the party procession and subsequent outrages at Dolly's-brae, on the 12th of July, when five persons lost their lives, and many others were seriously hurt, and when several houses were wrecked and demolished by the assembled rioters. What hope can there be for unhappy Ireland when the laws are ad ministered in such a spirit? What rea sonable expectation can be entertained of the restoration of peace and tranquillity in that afflicted land, when the stream of justice is polluted at its very source ? How can the people repose any confidence in those who have so shamefully abused the important cowers committed to their hands ? The worst days of Orange domination and ascendancy scarcely witnessed a more flagrant violation of magis terial duties than was afforded by certain justices of the peace for the county of Down within the list week, although the misgovernment and op• pression that was then exhibited have passed into a proverb, and were considered by all unprejudiced and right-minded persons sufficient to account for all the misery and disturbances that have since oc curred in the sister kingdom. It is scarcely necessary to revert to the proceed ings that disgraced the northern province on the last 12th of July. On that day, the anniversary of many former scenes of outrage and disturbance, of sanguinary conflicts and internecine strife, a large body of Orangemen determined on walking in pro cession for the avowed purpose of complimenting their Grand Master, a nobleman of lorge fortune, and a magistrate of great influence, but really with the intent of insulting and exasperating a considerable body of their fellow-subjects. In vain were they warned of the illegality and impolicy of the contem plated exhibition. In vain were remonstrances addressed to their leaders. They were informed of the great probability of some fearful catastrophe being the result of the reckless exhibition—of the absolute certainty that there would be a breach of the public peace if they persevered in their insane determination ; nothing could induce them to forego their insolent triumph. The salutary law against party processions had unfortunately been suffered to expire, and they reckoned with but too much; reason on the well•known partiality of the local magistrates, by many of whom their rash design was counte nanced and encouraged. They marched accordingly to Tollymore Park in large numbers, with drums and fifes, and all the insignia of their confederacy, where they were entertained and harangued by their brother and master, the Earl of RODEN, who was also the leading magistrate of the district—the appointed conservator of the public peace. A large body of police were in attendance, clearly indicating the reasonable apprehensions entertained by the authori‘ I . ties as to the too probable consequences. Lord 1 RODEN was himself applied to to use his influence with the party, to induce them to return by a different path from that by which they had arrived, where a threaten ing multitude had assembled to contest their passage, but his Lordship peremptorily refused, alleging that "his influence would be of no avail." The excited party set out on their homeward journey; they saw that a terrified and indignant multitude were assembled on the neighbouring hills, but they had among them four hundred well- armed men, and they determined to force their way despite of opposition. The anticipated collision took place. The fair plains of Ulster were again stained with Irish blood, shed by Irish hands— five Roman Catholics were shot dead i many more were grievously injured, and their lives endangered. And, as a fitting consummation to the sanguinary work, several houses were set on fire and destroyed over the heads of helpless women and innocent children, who were left by the "champions of loyalty" without a home or a roof to shelter them. Such outrageous proceedings could not be suffered to pass unnoticed. An investigation into all the circumstances of the case was directed, which was entrusted to an able and ex perienced barrister, whose high character and well known impartiality recommended him to all parties, and ensured a fair and unprejudiced report. Although perhaps the extraordinary mildness and amiability of disposition for which he is so remarkable to a cer tain extent disqualified him from dealing with the truculent offenders in the manner they deserved, in accordance with his recommendation, informations for riot and unlawful assemblage were preferred against several of the Orangemen implicated in the transaction. No possible doubt could exist that they had been guilty of a grave violation of the law. An unlawful assembly is defined by HAWKINS to be " any meeting whatever, under such cir cumstances of terror, arising either from large numbers, or manner of assembling, as may endanger the public peace, and raise fears and jealousies among the people ;" and "it is immaterial whether the act done be unlawful or not—doing it in a manner calculated to inspire the people with terror is equally punishable whether it be lawful or not." This state of the law was clearly explained by Mr. BERWICK, who, however, with a laudable delicacy abstained from voting' on the question. Not, so, however, did Lord RODEN act. Although himself a particeps crilninis, and by many regarded as the chief culprit, the Noble Lord not only took the chair of the bench of magistrates, but actually proposed that they should refuse to grant the informations applied for. He did not dare to question the law, so clearly and distinctly explained by Mr. BERWICK. He could not deny that the parties had offended against the law, but he alleged that they had previously offended in like manner with impunity, and, therefore, that it would be aa " hardship"—a hardship, forsooth, to answer for their acts before a jury of their countrymen. In this extraordinary view he was seconded by a clerical coadjutor—the Rev. Mr, PORDE, 'who thought, as a magistrate, "he was bound to give the accused the benefit of the doubt" —and ultimately supported by a majority of one among the justices. A practical immunity is thus to be afforded to the wrong-doers, which must have a most injurious effect upon the minds of the people. The Irish are a shrewd and intelligent race, and they will not fail to perceive the nece!sary results of this most unfortunate and extraordinary decision. llenceforward they will believe that men may commit any outra ges they please within the Castlewellan district, provided they be of the right kidney, and can excite the sympathies of Lord RODEN and his Orange brethren. Will the Government, we ask, sanction such a state of affairs as will justify such an opinion ? They will not, they cannot do so. It becomes them to act promptly and decisively to preserve the fountain of justice pure and undefiled ; and, if they can no longer repose implicit confidence in the impartiality of the unpaid magistracy in any district, to dispense with their services thenceforward and replace them by compe- tent stipendiaries, who will decide on the several matters that may be brought under their consideration without fear, prejudice, favour, or affection. THE FRENC_H REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris Paris of yesterday. The Moniteur publishes a report from M. LAN. JUINAIS, as Minister of Worship ad interim, recom mending that the consent of the PRESIDENT of the Republic be given to the holding of a council of the heads of the French church at Paris to consider what changes may be advisable in matters of disci pline, in consequence of the modifications which society has been of late subjected to. The report is followed by a decree from the PRESIDENT authorising the said council to meet, as proposed, during the re mainder of the year 1849. The publication of the PRESIDENT'S letter on the affairs of Rome has bad one excellent effect, it has compelled the partisans of parti-pretre to throw off the mask, and to exhibit themselves in their true colours. They are as they ever were, and only want the power to imitate the horrors of which they are the apologists, and to organize a new St. Bar tholomew's. They call any attempt to prevent the Cardinals from re-organizing the Inquisition, and from massacring all who dare to differ from them in opinion, an infringement upon liberty, as though it Thug were a f n r y om infr c i o n m ge m m i e tt n in t gupomnulridbeerr.ty Itto Rirseven a de lightfulthe agonies of the pa affairs have taken—their ex hibition malice is quite edifying. The rt i - p r e o t fr toe impotent a t the witness turn PRESIDENT of the Republic must be by this time perfectly aware of the hollowness of the support which these Judases have hitherto afforded to him " to serve a purpose." Finding he is no longer to be bamboozled, they now abuse him and plot against the safety of the Republic. Will the PRESIDENT and his advisers mete out to them the Fame measure that they have meted out to the " Reds? •' Common justice demands that they should, and public opinion will uphold them in so doing. We shall see. It is said that Austria accepts, in the fullest sense, the letter of the PRESIDENT to Colonel NET, and that the Austrian Minister has endeavoured to im press on the POPE the absolute necessity of making the concessions to his subjects required by the PRESI DENT of the French Republic. The health of the French troops in Italy is suffer ing severely. The Gazette de France says— " The sanitary state of our army in Italy appears to have awakened the solicitude of the Government. On Saturday a member of the Superior Council of Health, with several physicians, surgeons, and apothecaries at tached to the hospitals of Paris, among whcm aro MM. Izcauchie, Faure, Lafont, &c., were sent off in all haste for Rome. It is said that typhoid fevers and dysentery are raging among the soldiers, and the invasion cf the cholera is feared, which has raged so violently at Venice and Milan. The information which we have ob tained is satis'actory as far as regards the mortality, which is not so great as the number of sick might lead us to expect The present season is, moreover, the worst of the year in the campaign of Rome, and it is expected that, as winter approaches, this distressing state of things will change." M. DE FALLOUX is convalescent. M. MERCIER was sent off to Rome on Sunday with dispatches for General RosToLAN. The sailing of the fleet from Tculon has been countermanded, and all the troops and stores have been landed. The PRESIDENT of the Republic, on the proposition of the Minister of the Interior, and by the advice of the Commission des Mises en Liberti, has ordered the release of 225 of the insurgents of June, 1848, con fined in the pontoons of Brest, Cherbourg, and L'Orient. In consequence of this release there are now no more insurgents in the naval establishment at L'Orient. .....- .....IM.SL..

The deficit on the current year will be 360,000,000 reels. Such are the consequences of the protective system when fairly carried out. It is said the new tariff will come into operation, nest month.

The merciful conduct of the council of war has been much praised ; and, with the exception of Colonel Plonay, executed on the 22d, no execution has taken place. On the 29th there were burnt, in front of the house of General Schlick, bank bills issued by Kossuth, amounting, in nominal value, to 1,104,103 florins. The retail trade here is very brisk at this moment. In and around Arad there are no fewer than 100,000 Aus trians and Russians. They are continually bringing in insurgent officers as prisoners from Transylvania. Tho cholera, dysentery, and fevers are the order of the day here.". 1 . It has been officially announced in Vienna that Austria has demanded from the Porte the extradition of KOSSUTH and his companions. VIENNA, SEPT. 16. 2 -Field-Marshal RADETSIT, who has long been impatiently expected here, arrived to-day at 12 o'clock. His progress from the railway station to the Imperial Palace resembled that of a triumphal entry. The Lloyd says a vast concourse of persons awaited his arrival at the southern termi nus. It is utterly impossible to describe the hearty enthusiasm with which he was welcomed. The noble veteran's appearance produced a most powerful and gratifying impression. The Bin jELLACHICII, who had repaired to the , terminus to welcome the hero, was received with loud cheers. All the windows along the line of procession were decorated with hangings, busts, & c . Joyous acclamations greeted the veteran hero from every heart of the assembled multitude, and hundreds pressed around his carriage to catch a glimpse of his countenance. The Ban, who arrived here yesterday, alighted at the Imperial Palace at Hetzendorf. The state of the siege of Trieste was raised on ;he 11th. The German Reforms says that the hostilities against Comorn recommenced on the 4th. PRUSSIA. Letters from Berlin of the 14th state that in conse quence of the difficulties introduced by the Danish Government in the question of Schleswig-Holstein, there is some probability that the war may be renewed. CENTRAL GERMANY. The Aligen:eine Zeitung of the 10th contains the following letter, dated Frankfort, Sept. 10: " Austria will not further oppose the formation of any confederations not at variance with the German Confe deration. But, by virtue of the Allianceof 1815, Austria demands that all the material general interests—such as commerce, customs, posts, railways, &c., be under the jurisdiction of the Central Provisional Power, and that all restri c t e d con f e d era ti ons , cons e q uently that of tho three Kings, be subject to the Provisional Power." The Hambergh Corresponded publishes a letter of the 1 tth from Frankfort, which stales : " It is said that a note has been received from Ass, trig in which this power again delares very decidedly ; against the validty of the Confederation of the three Kings under the 11th Act of the Alliance of 1815, and therefore, in union with Bavaria and Wirtenaburg, de clines its concurrence. _ " The Senate of the free city of Frankfort has receiv ed an official notice from Berlin that the Diet to be called by Prussia, by virtue of the federation of the three Kings, dill be held at Frankfurt. _ " This is probably the first fruits of the negotiations of Dr. Harnier Olderman, of Frankfort. " The report that Prince Wittgenstein had requested and obtained bis dismission from the Reichsverweser as Ministerial President of the empire and Minister of War appears to be wholly without foundation." The Cologne Gazette publishes intelligence from Frankfort to the 14th, from which it appears that the assent of the Vienna Cabinet has been received at Berlin. Austria and Prussia are each to appoint two Deputies, Austria to have the pre-eminence. If these two commissioners should not be unani mous the question shall be decided by their respective Cabinets; and if these also are not agreed, it shall be decided by the remainder of the German empire, according to a fixed rotation. The Provisional Central Government, with the concurrence of the Reichsverweser and the German Governments (Ba varia and Hanover having also given in their assent to the proposal), will be appointed pro tem. to the Ist of May, 1850. Such are the main points of the proposal, to which it now rests with Prussia to give her assent. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. The Danes have, it appears, demolished th e f ug tifi cations at Duppel. The following is the otlicia account published by the Schleswig-Holstein autho. rity " GRAVENSTEIN, SEPT. 10.—The epaulcents and batteries of Dfippel, which the German troops estab lished after many months labour and defended with their blood (it was here that the Saxons lost two Eeld pieces by a sortie), the entrenchments for which Schles wig-Holstein willingly made large pecuniary sacrifices, no more exist. When the federal troops were withdrawn, I undertook the guard of the works, in conjunction with the police-reaster:,Muderapacb, and the statholderate placed 44 gendarmes at our disposal. New blockhouses, palisades, platforms, ovens for heating red-hot balls—all, all have been destroyed, all have become the prey of the flames. I have just returned from the spot, and saw with my own eyes how sailors, with Danish cockades, from Sonderberg, loaded the remnants of our batteries and entrenchments cn waggons and wheelbarrows, and carried them off to Sonderberg. These are the facts—l leave the reader to think of the motives, and to posterity to bequeath the judgment. (Signed) " KROGH." RUSSIA. The EMPEIiOR published a manifesto on the 31st August, authorising a new levy of recruits, to supply the losses sustained by the Russian army in Hungary. ITALY. The Parti Pretre in Rome have established a new journal, the Osservatore Romano, in opposition to the French official Giornale di Roma. The first number contains a violent attack upon the PRESIDENT of the French Republic. The same journal announces the intention of the POPE to repair to Bologna. The following is said to have been presented to the Pontifical Court as the ultimatum of France :—" The ultimatum of France is said to be now confined to three points—viz , a Council of State, with a delibe rative voice for internal affairs ; a partial amnesty ; the withdrawal of all the paper money ; payment of the debts contracted by, and recognition of all the acts of the Provisional Government. The POPE and Cardinal ANTONELLI, however, hold back. According to the Opinione of Turin the anarchy in Rome is almost inconceivab'e, the struggle with the French becomes every day more lively, and the divisions in the Governmental Commission itself are also increasing. The neighbourhood of Bologna still continues to be infested by assassins. The Minister of Finance of Sardinia presented to the Chamber of Deputies on the 12th a financial pro ject of law, instead of that which had been presented touching the 75 millions to be paid as indemnity for the expenses of the war to Austria, and he requested the Chamber to take the subject immediately into consideration, this project being of an urgent nature. The cholera is raging fearfully in Venice. On the Ist September the ceremony of the Golden Rose was celebrated at Naples, in the Royal Chapel. The POPE directed the rose to be presented to the QUEEN, whose daughter he had but lately held over the baptismal font. Monsignor STELLI, whose duty it was to perform the august ceremony, after the cele bration of mass, expressed himself as follows to her MAJESTY : " Accept from our bands this rose, which we present to you in the name of the most Holy Father, our Lord Pius IX , Pope by the grace of God. It represents the jubilee of the two Jerusalems—namely, of the Church militant and triumphant which expresses by its beauty the joy of all the saints. May your Majesty accept it; it is like our century, noble, powerful, and adorned with many virtues. May Christ, our Lord, ennoble it still more, and adorn it with fresh virtues. May it resemble the rose which blooms on the banks of abundant rivers, and may you obtain the grace and clemency of Him who is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost I —Amen." The Concord/ 6g of Turin quotes a letter from Genoa, of the 12th, stating that it being known that GARIBALDI was to leave for Nice on the 11th, on board the San Giorgio steamer, crowds assembled at the port, and many persons occup i e d b oats f or t h e purpose of seeing and cheering him. The boats had been in waiting for upwards of an hour around the steamer, when she suddenly had her steam up, and moved towards the mouth of th e por t. O n b e i ng questioned, the sailors declared that GARIBALDI was not on board. Before leaving the port, however, she stopped ; a boat left the St. Michael frigate, and approached the steamer. The people in the boats, perceiving this, cried—" There's Garibaldi; make haste, ply your oars I" " Viva Garibaldi But before they could reach the steamer she had resumed her course, and they on l y arr i ved in time to learn that GeaniAzan was really on board of her. CRIMINAL COURT.—( THISOLD COURTI DAY). (Before the RECORDER and Mr. Alderman LAWRENCE.) BORoIArtY.—A respectably attired youngnian named John Williams, pleaded guilty to a charge of feloniously breaking and entering the dwelling house of Mr. George Hamilton Roe, a gentleman of fortune, and stealing therefrom one gold chain, tour studs, &c., valued at 505., the property of Charles White, his butler. The Court sentenced him to nine months' imprisonment, with hard labour. Pic&roczETB.o.David Rogers and John Brown, two lads of very sinister aspects, were indicted, and pleaded guilty to a charge of stealing a handkerchief, value 23., the property of Patrick Edward Donelly, from his per • son. A previous conviction was exhibited against Rogers, and he was sentenced to ten years' transportation; while Brown, who appeared to be his pupil, was sentenced to six months' imprisonment. - NEW COURT. (Before the COMMON SERGEANT.) The whole of the morning was occupied in trying Mint cases, not one of which presented any feature of interest. MARLBRO'-STREET—(THIS DAY.) A middle-aged well-dressed man, with a tremendous fierce-looking pair of moustaches, who was described on the charge-sheet as John Melton, gentleman, 184, Re gent-street, but who is in reality no less a personage than Charles Count de Wint, was charged before Mr. Ifirdwick with having been drunk and disorderly in Piccadilly. It appeared that, at two o'clock this morning, the Count, who was rather " far gone" in grog, called in a t the Vine -street police-station, and so far interrupted the business there that the inspector on duty very properly directed him to be put out. The Count subse quently proceeded into Piccadilly, where he created such a disturbance that soon caused him to be taken into cus tody and lodged in one of the cells of the station. The Count, i n answer to the c h arge , sa id h e h a d b een dining at Brighton, and had unfortunately taken " ra ther too much wine." Mr. HARDWIeit, in consideration of the Count's hav ing been in durance vile for eight hours, directed him to be discharged. The Count immediately left the court and was seen to enter the tavern opposite the court, where he called for , a glass o f grog by way of a com f or t er . The MAQISTRATE requested our reporter to acknow- ledge the receipt of 20s. from P. S. J., for the use of the poor-box, MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) 71.8. y rts.a.3oiWTs.

TZA.—The public sales today sre going off rather flat MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The demand for Cotton at Liverpool yesterday was to 3 moderate extent. The sales were estimated at about 5,000 bales, including 4,500 American at 4i 1. to 7d., 150 Egyptian at 61d. to 7d., and 200 Surat at 4J. to 4id per lb.—Ruilway Shares were rather firmer. The chief and most important political news received by the American steamer relates to the contemplated attempt upon the part of certain Americans to attack the Spanish island of Cuba, with the avowed object of declaring it an American state. The American Govern-. mcnt was taking the necessary measures to suppress the movement. From Canada the news is not of special interest. With regard to commercial interests the accounts are favourable. The fail trade, which has just commenced, is represented as active for the time of year, and the prospects of the ❑ext few months were considered satis factery. The cotton market, owing to the news from England, had become very active, and firm at a rise of id. :per lb. The fl•pur market, however, was dull, and the business doing in provisions was rather limited than otherwise. The money market was abun dantly supplied for all necessary purposes at easy rates, and which it was expected would be the case for the re mainder of the year. Freights to Liverpool were dull at l id. for cotton. Exchange on London, by no means active at 1091 to 1101. There was an excellent demand for imported goods from both England and France for the interior, and notwithstanding that the arrivals had been rather large, prices ruled high and firm. - In continuation of the arguments based upon official data, and already advanced under this head in favour of a line of railway, as a national undertaking, from Halifax to Quebec, it may be remarked that the best information obtained proves that the land for the greater portion of the road will not have to be purchased. Timber and stone will be had nearly along the whole line for the labour of cutting and quarrying. Judging then from the analogy afforded by simi'ar, or nearly similar, lines in the neighbouring sates, giving due weight to the considerations which have a tendency to modify the cost in the particular case of the Halifax and Quebec line, and forming the best estimate to be derived from the data obtained upon the exploratory survey, which, under the circumstances of a perfectly new country, only partly explored, and still covered with a dense forest, is all that can in the first instance be done, it is considered that if the sum of 7001. sterling per mile be assumed es the probable cost of the proposed line, it will not be far trom the correct amount. The total distance from Halifax to Quebec will be about 635 miles. Is is estimated, therefore, that the cost for con struction and equipment of the proposed trunk line, from Halifax, through New Brunswick, to Quebec, will amount to 5,000,0001. sterling. The question which presents itself next for conside ration, and has been considered by the officers ap pointed, is a very important one, namely, the probable returns for such an expenditure. The information Co be afforded on this bead can only be derivkd in al very general way, from a consi deration of the present population and resources of the thr( c provinces. _ _ The direct communication between the two termini, Halirax and Quebec, is of u very limited nature. By land it is confined almost to the conveyance of the mails. Passengers proceed generally by way of the United States. By sea, in 1847, tho communication was by seven teen vessels, which al - lived at Quebec, having a tonnage of 1,257, and eighteen departed fr , ,rn that port for Ilabfax whose tonnage amounted to 1,386 tons. This amount of intercourse do: s not at the first view appear encouraging to expected receipts, but when tt is made to appear that this limited intercourse arises entirely from the want of good means of intercommuni cation, such as would be afforded by the proposed rail way, it b, comes a strong argument in favour of making the line rather than against it. Havre accounts to yesterday afternoon report no change in the Cotton Market. It remained inactive, waiting for the news from America. The sales yesterday amounted to only 144 bales for local consumption. Prices steady. The accounts from the various continental Bourses represent a general rise in the value of the respective national stocks. At Paris, Antwerp, Amsterdam, Ber lin, Frankfort, and M a d r id prices have risen. Business in the Home Funds continues limited, but which in some degree necessarily results from the fact of most of the transfer-books forgeneral stocks being closed preparatory to the payment of the October dividends. The market is also unaltered, prices being the same to-day as yesterday. Consols have been done at 92* and 1 for Money, and at 92* and h for Account, and which are the present prices. Exchequer.bills have been operated in at 355. and at 375. prem.; India Stock at 254.; and ditto Bonds at 745. prem. The Foreign Stock Market is generally better, and there is more business doing. There have been deal ings in Buenos Ayres at 48g.; Peruvian at 66 to i.; Grenada at 16i ; Ditto Deferred, at 3i; Spanish Five per Cents. with Dividends for May, 1840, at 14; Dutch Two-and-a. Half per Cents. at 54 to 1 ; Ditto Four per Cents. at 85 to 1 ; Portuguese Five per Cents. Con verted at 21; Ditto Four per Cents. at 28i. Mexican Bonds, however, are not so good as yesterday ; they have declined to 271 to*. The Railway Market has, on the whole, a decidedly better appearance. Prices are generally firmer, and in several instances higher, whilst purchases begin to in crease, and sales, on the contrary, to decrease. North- Western and Midland are each 11. higher. There is a good deal doing in the latter stock, at 52i to 53i ex. div. ONE O'OCLCK. , iLr S i G MIL'S. 92 93 254 CLOSI.N C PRICES. OF ' 4 II7I"SH FITNI3S 3 per Cent.

The Cid of Pierre Corneille has evidently been the foundation of the work, and a melo-dramatio structure has been raised on the old severe basis. In the Cid, it will be remembered, the father of the great Rodrigo is insulted by the f a th er o f Xi mena (Chi' men e). The juveni:e hero avenges th e w r o ng by killing the aggressor in a duel, after a severe atrugglet between love and honour, and thus offends his be' trothed Ximena, who finds herself involved in a similar struggle, and feels bound to persecute Rodriet though at hetirt she adores him. At last, by a victor! over the Moors, Rodrig o ma k es hi mse lf so vol. illustrious that, in spite of h er f a th er ' s d ea th, Xime na is prevailed upon to m arry f l him. Although this incident ,. taken from the recognized history o f 1 ; 10 Cid, the union of Ximena w ith th e ma n who killed her parent has always created something ' o f shock. Colley Cibber, who wrote an adaptation, Corneille's . tragedy, under the name of 2ai ne 'l d . ea n avoided the difficulty, by making the apparently father recover of his wounds, while the Anler le t a b a author, who, by giving Rodrigo and Ximen a no , names . of Velasco and Isidora, has abandoned e n v . nexion with history, has made the tale end tragiet t When Isidora is about to be married to Velasco., wan the especial sanction of the King of Castile' he bet agent of vengeance appears in the person . soo brother, who, after vainly endeavouring t° L .P,: i s be Velasco, stabs him at the wedding banquet, while the swallows the envenomed draught, and falls o ld dead body of her lover.
