All m-ans were had recourse to, acc'srding to the present rode of practice, to, restore_ their patient, which was in some mea .• sure effected, as, after many ' weeks, the patient left his bed; but as for the bladder, it had lost entirely its contractile power, so much so, that for thirteen weeks he never could make water in the natural way, and thecatheter was obliged to be introduced four or five times every day, and always during the night it was kept passed into the bladder. Mr. Potter contirified to suffer in this distressing manner until the..sth of 'August, about which period he was recommended to me to see if Morison's Pills would have any good eff:ct upon him, and my opinion being favourable as to the ultimate results of that medicine upon him, he immediately began with three pills at, night and two in the morning, an,' at the end of the third day, astonishing to say, he was able to make water in the natural way. . -He continued everyday to progress favourably, and I think .he has taken the medicines in varied doses for about three - months, under, my directions, with the happiest results, inasmuch that he has now . no occasion to pass the Instrument, the bladder having quite regained its natural power; and Mr. Potter's health is so regenerated in every respect, that he has now become as active and healthy a person as can be seen.

Tne Quackeries of Doctors by the help of their Organic System of Treating Diseases. I. A nice thing this organic pathology of doctors, which enables them to administer innumerable. drugs, and what is best of all for them, it can never be proved that they have given that which is im proper. Dr. A. gives this, Dr. B. that, Dr. C. the other thing, and Ito forth. Dr. A. bleeds, Dr. B. doesn't, and Dr. C. both bleeds and doesn't. Mr. D. complains of a pain in the side, upon which Dr. A. sends forth a messenger, in the shape of morphine, et' some ether ine, to fetch it out from th a t part i cu l ar locality. Mr. D. complains of a pain in his liver, Dr. w, tends another messenger in the shape, perhaps, of calomel, to fetch that out. Mr. D. complains of a pain in his head, Dr. A. sends a third mew:Diego( oome'sort or other, dignified also with a Latin name, to fetch 'that out.. Thus, according to doctors, there is a specific for every part of the body. This sounds very well,' but unfortunately they all differ among them. selves, on account of symptoms, as to when and how their remedies should be . given. We call this a system of quackery, which may be verified by any person referring to the medical works of the day. It Is a most fearful quackery, because it tends completely to enslave the public mind, prevents inquiry, and takes away all responsibility from doctors; they always have a loophole to creep out at under their organic pathology. If a poor patient diev, of course the disease killed him, it couldn't have been the doctors' drugs; the confiding friends believe - him, and there is no further inquiry. 2. Reeving fine houses and carriages, in order to lead persons to believe that, therefore, they can cure diseases better than their brethren with diplomas, but without carriages or fine houses. This, of course, would have no weight with the public If they knew the nature of their own bodies, but being grossly ignorant of it, they are led by outward show. We believe that it is well known that a doctor stands - rib 'chance unless he keeps his carriage of some sort Proffer. NORTH BRITISH INSURANCE COMPANY, Established 1809.

This is done, we pre. sume, to prevent the patient knowing the useless or injurious things which he is taking ; at all events, to give importance and mystery to the thing. 4. Writing a bOok upon some particular disease (thanks to their organic pathology), and then getting a friend, the editor of some newspaper or review, to puffit into notoriety. Having considered the quackeries of doctors, we turn to the Hy. geian system. Let us see whether there be quackery in that. How stands.the case? Why simply thus.-Mr. Morison, the Hygeist, al. leges that all diseases proceed from one cause, viz., impurities in the blood; he also alleges that the Vegetable Universal Medicine, by removing these impurities, must necessarily. produce health. Is he borne out by facts in that assertion ? Let the thousands of cured patients answer. Moreover, it has been offered during the last eight years to prove the important fact of the universality of the medicine. by.a strict examination of the cises of poorpeople who present themselves daily at the Exeter Hygeim Dispensary, most of whom arediscarded , as incurable patients from the Exeter hos pitals. We cannot see hew the word quackery can apply to the Hygeian system ,• it is not pretended that the medicine cures by magic, or as if there were a charm in it, but it is, on the contrary, its cleansing properties over the blood which are relied upon. The cause of all diseases.is asserted, and the medicine being unchange able it therefore follows that every person, understanding that system, can judge 'whether he will put himself under the Hygeian treatment or not. There is no loophole for Hygeists as with doctors; if the pills tkil, then Hygeists sal that, in their opinion, nothing else will cure. . FRENCH MAGAZINE.

As to Aoittore being gefierilly persons of education, it is no proof whatever of their ability to cure the sick, bteause from motives of gain (hence their opposition to Hygeism) the medical schools have departed from simplenature, and in order to make medicine a lu crative employment, they have invented this cursed organic patho logy before described, which - is new so Mystified, that some of its professors have gone mad, andoth era confessthat they know nothing about it.

Mackinnon's Report. -The last packet from America brought the following report from Lieutenant John Mackinpon, 104th Foot. Hygeian general agent for Cape Breton and other islands in the Gulf of St. Lawrence:— To Messrs. Morrison and Moat, British College of Health, London. Dear Sirs,—On the eth of October, 1844, I had the pleasure of transmitting to the British College of Health a brief report on Hygean affairs in this quarter of the globe, and which, I am happy to discover, hasbeen largely circulated, and some hundreds of copies sent to this island to stare In the face both friends and foes. Since the report alluded to, the Universal Medicines of the Col lege have nothing diminished in the estimation of old as well as new patients, for not a cloud has arisen to obscure, even for a moment, their shlninglustre, and many cases of cure have been performed, (by the blessing:of God on the means) of truly a most astonishing nature. A few only I deeM it necessary to forward.—lst. Archibald I.l.Donald, aged 47, farmer, pronounced incurable by several doc tors. He had been informed by the wiseacres, that by the aid of their sounding rods they had discovered 'that his heart had grown too large for its casement, and that he might prepare himself for an eternal world. He Applied to me as his &inter resource before leaving this..Woild,-anat' was greatly surprised at my falling into a -violent fit of laughter at his tale of woe. " Archy, my man," said I, " Do only what I bid you, and I will cut down that tremendous heart of yours in a few weeks; for those fellows you have been consulting are only blind leaders of the blind." I'he pills and powders were administered in grand style, twenty at a dose twice a day; this was in April. and the July following he paid for his medicines by. mowing the grass in my field', and then fount that his•heart was freed from its shackles. He has remained in good health ever since. For the remainder of Lieut. Mackinnon's report,' see the 20th number of the Hygeist, published on the Ist of December last. The last Overland Mail from India brought intelligence of the chol ra raging in the interior, and of its successful treatment in all cases where Morison's - Medicines were had recourse to. The following is an extract from a letter just received by Messrs. Morison and Moat, of the British College of Health, Hamilton place, New-road, London, from Robert L. Pereira, Esq., then ge neral agent for Madras, dated October 21, 1843 : I regret to Inform you-that the cholera is making great ravages in the intezior,•and in a part of the black town called Parcherry. In Madras, during the last nine or ten days, many have fallen victims; those. who have taken your invaluable medicines have been cured, and others have been saved from an attack by a timely application to same means, • Another extraordinary case of cure from Mr. Pereira, of Madras. _ To Mr. R. L. Pereira. Si beg to inform you that one of my relations, a boy 12 years of age, having been bitten-O n e n i g h t, at about half-plat eight o'clock, by a venomous snake, called by the natives Cataverien, or Carpet Snake, about twelve o'clock 'his whole body became swollen to an . enormous size, did be commenced vomiting blood and rice, accom panied with an oppression in the chest, and in the last stage. I have, in the absence of other medicines, given him a dose of twelve of Morison's No. 2 Pills from the last purchase I made from you, and t h e boy, half an hour after he had taken the pills, threw up bile and had a few motions, whereby he felt instant relief, which gave him good rest till the next morning, and when he awoke he still felt, heavY , remPtemei — upott—which • a medical . practitioner, a filative of the patient, prepared a draught, and desired the boy to take it; he peremptorily. refused, and said he would take no other medicine but the pills he had taken before, because he benefited thereby ;• accordingly, another dose of nine pills was given him; about half an h our a f t er h e vom i te d some [ green stuff and had three green motions, and entirely recovered. I beg also to bring to your notice. that, notwithstanding the most extra. ordinary cure I have experienced with this .invaluable medicine in the bite of a venomous snake, as-above stated, I have had the hap piness of Curing various complaints of both a chronic and acute nature, rind more particularly of myself. I must say that were it 11 , 1 for these pills I should to this very day suffer with the 'severe pain in the "pit of my stomach which used to come on me very fre quently for several.years before I used them ; in fact, many in my neighbourhood who knew rhe - to hive suffered with the pain, and that I had cured myself of it with these pills, flock to me for aid whenever they are taken ill, And I ani obliged to give it to them, gratis In some instances. ' Hoping that, as these pills arc now be _ Your coming v better known among th e nat i ve populat i on, and w i ll he in greater demand daily, you will al ways have a good stock on hand for the benefit of mankind in this part of th e u ni verse , beg to subscribe myself, Sir, V.

The' half-premitun plan of Assurance, as praetised by this Company, thus enables persons to retain to their own use the one-half of the premiums for the first seven years, at 51. per.cent. interest. Thus,. suppose the or dinary premium for an assurance of 5001. to be 101., the first pay ment by the half-premium plan will be five guineas, being the one half of the 101., and interest for the retained half; and, if death should occur in the first year, the sum of 5001. would be paid less the 51. - retained. , The assured may thus have the use for the first year of 51.; for the second, of 101.; and so on till .the end of 'the seventh year, when the retained sums, amounting to 351., may either be repaid, or retained at 51. per cent. interest until death, when the 351. vrOntd be Subtractedfrom the 5001. then payabloby the Cempfuty.

In the year 1828 the above Establishment was founded by James Morison, the Hygeist, who, together with a great number of indivi duals, became members thereof, in order the more effectually to carry out those principles in medicine known as the " Hygeian Sys tem," which have from interested motives been so violently opposed by the Faculty, but which they (the Hygeists), notwithstanding, con. scientiously believe to be founded in truth. Time, the test of all theories, has meet certainly proved the truth o f th a t system. The Hygeian agents in different parts of the world, who are highly re spectable persons, have all concurred in their reports as to the cure of disease by Morison's Medicines, when many of the parties had been given over as incurable under the ordinary medical treatment; these facts are on record throughout the different parts of the globe, and; therefore, Hygeists are Justified in denouncing the present sys tem of doctors (the organic pathology) as being altogether founded in error, which, we submit, is emply proved by the fast of doctors being at this day quite at variance with one another, both as regards the theory of disease and its practice—hence have we the Water Cure, Homoeopathy, Mesmerism, Sm. The fact of medical men being gene rally persons of education is not of itself at all conclusive of their being the most competent to cure disease, if it can be proved, as wo say it can, that, from interested motives, the medical schools have diverged from the path of simple nature, and for profit have made the science of medicine one of confusion, not to be understood by even the wisest matt that ever lived; in proof of which assertion we refer the public to the medical works of the day, which contain the most Migrant contradictions and absurdities. Mr. Morison, on the other hand, proceeding upon a' simple, , but true! and (natural theory— namely, that all diseases, however they may show themselves, have their origin in an impure state of the blood and fluids,_ so that there is, in fact, but one disease—administers at once the Vegetable Uni versal Medicine ; and he, and those connectei with his system, have invariably found,* that when the disease was curable it has been cured by that simple process, whilst, if the same disease had been submitted to learned doctors, they would have tried, perhaps, innu. merable prescriptions, all dignified with Latin names, and, after all, have left the patient where they found him, if not worse. We say these are facts of every day occurrence, and that those who will in quire into this important question will find them such. We are aware that the practice of a system like the Morisonian would not sufficiently remunerate doctors, since,every person might thus become his own physician. The public will, therefore, not be much surprised that the Faculty should hare adopted a system founded on organic prin ciples, as if the body were a piece of patchwork, which consequently obliges all persons (except Hygeists) to have recourse to them in cases of disease ; hence we see, in almost every street, eye and ear infirmaries, and other establishments for treating diffbrent parts of the body. In conclusion, we have to lay before the public an e xtra c t f r om the last Report of 04 Exeter Hygeian Dispensary, together with Lady Grey's last letter, and the amount paid by us for stamps to the Bri tish Government, &c., all of which we submit is corroborative of the foregoing allegation, namely, that the present system of doctors in treating diseases on organic principles is altogether erroneous. (Signed) MORISON, MOAT, and CO. Hygeists. I At the Exeter Hygeian Dispensary upwards of 4,000 poor per. sons have been restored to health by the Hygeian medicines, many of whom had been declared incurable in the Exeter hospitals under doctors' treatment. The Dispensary, situate at 01, Fore-street-hill, Exeter, has now been in full operation during the last eight years, and is under the direction of Richard Tothill, Esq., to whom the public is referred as regards the proceedings at that Institution. Case of Cure reported by Lady Sophia Grey. Sandiway, December '7, 1843. Gentlemen,—By the wish of our labourer, G. Greaves, I write to say that he wishes it to be known how greatly he has benefited by taking your most excellent medicines. When we came to this place he was a.-poor sickly young man, so often tied up with violent attacks of asthma, that the farmers would not employ him, and Mr. Booth Grey gave him little jobs when able to do anything. I instantly per suaded him to take your Pills in small doses, alternately No. 1 and No. 2. He has done so, never exceeding seven pills at a dose, and is now a very healthy man, and able to work like any other labourer, and not atlbeted by every change in the weather. I have known se veral that have received groat benefit from your Pills in this most dis tressing complaint. I have several bad cases in hand, and no words can describe theblessing this medicine is to the poor. I have seve ral patients I have nover seen, but send the advice by letter; but am not deceived, as I have friends who watch their progress. As for my self I should have been dead years ago if it had not been for your Pills and the mercy of my Heavenly Father. I remain, Gentlemen, yours sincerely obliged, SOPHIA GREY. To Messrs.

On Friday the half-yearly general meeting of the Pro prietors of this Company, adjourned from the Shoreditch station, owing to the want of sufficient accommodation at the railway terminus, was held at the Hall of Commerce, in Threadneedle-street, Mr. Henry Bosanquet, Chairman of the Directors, presiding.- There was a very numerous attend ance of Proprietors, and amongst them were Mr. Cobbold, Mayor of Ipswich ; Mr. Gilbertson, Mayor of Hertford ; Mr. Daniel Whittle Harvey ; Mr. Tite, F.R.S. ; Mr. William Routh; Mr, Rebert.Stephenson, civil engineer, with others from Liverpool and the eastern districts. Prior to the read ing of the Report, the Chairman briefly addressed the Proprietors, congratulating them on the recent amalga mation of the Eastern Counties and Northern and Eastern Railways, and also on the determination of the Company to extend the line from Cambridge to Ely,' and thence to Peterborough; on the one side, and to Brandon on the other. The whole of the deposits on this extension stock amounting to 75,000/., as re quired by the Standing Orders of Parliament, had been already subscribed. Nearly the whole of the line had also been placed under .the care of a responsible contractor, and a large accession was expected to the pr esen t traffic fromi the tributary streams likely to flow into it from the proposed branch lines in contemplation to the seaport town of Har i wich, and to the posting towns of Ely, Cambridge, and Newport. In common with almost every other railway in the kingdom,. the Eastern Counties Railway was assessed to an enormous extent for poor-rates and other purposes. Railway undertakings, as it had. been admirably expressed by the Premier the other day, tended as much to the na tional utility, and to the utility of the provinces through which they passed, as they did to the emolument of share , holders ; and all that the latter asked of the Legislature in return, as had been expressed by the Chairmen of the other great companies, was that they would take the subject of these assessments into their serious consideration, and ren der to the companies that which was in strict accordance with justice. The Legislature had again appointed a com ,mittee of investigation into railway matters, for their better arrangement' as between the public and the shareholders, between whom there must always exist a reciprocity of in terest. •He felt sure that this investigation was not with the view of interfering with the vested interests of railways, but solely with a view to the elucidation of truth, and the in terest and well-working of the railway system. Mr. Duncan, the Company's Solicitor, then read the Report of the Directors, which announced that since the amalgamation of the Northern and Eastern line with that of the Eastern Counties the extension line to Newport had been commenced and was steadily advancing towards completion. The car riage of cattle on the railway continued to increase, and promised an extensive trade. The goods depot in London was now nearly completed, and the general traffic was greatly on the increase. Bills had been intro duced into Parliament for the construction of the Stratford Branch Railway, and the extension line to Har wich. The expenditure of the Company up to,the present time upon the main line of railway had been 2,878,529/. The traffic account for the half-year exhibited a net balance ap plicable to a" dividend of 4s. per share 0f26,6001. The Report having been proposed for adoption, a long discussion ensued upon a proposition_ moved by Mr. Bell, and upon which Mr. Daniel W. Harvey,. Mr. Tite, and others spoke, to the effect that the opinion of Sir W. Follett be taken as to whether the debenture Shareholders were entitled to receive both dividend and interest upon their shares ; but upon being put to the vote the proposition was lost by a large majority. Mr. Hall, the Managing Director, entered into a variety of financial ex planation% in reply to questions from Mr. Daniel W. Harvey, and other gentlemen. Messrs. Gibbes and Hood, the two re tiring Directors, were unanimously re-elected,- and, after some desultory discussion, at intervals of a somewhat disorderly description, the meeting, having resumed and addptenheße r port, separated after passing a vote of continued confidence in the Directors. PROMOTIONS IN THB ROYAL ARTILLBRY.-111 ad dition to the retirement of Lieutenant , Colonel Darby, who has recently returned to Woolwich on sick leave, from St. :Helena, Lieutenant-Colonel the Hon. W. Arbuthnot, whose routine of service placed'him first for the command at that station, has signified his intention to retire; and it is said Lieutenant-Colonel Fraser will•proceed to St. Helena. Lieu tenant-Colonel Macbean, whose tour of service placed him first to relieve Lieutenant-Colonel Browne in the command at Gibraltar, has also signified his intention of retiring, but his successor has not: yet been named. Lieutenant-Colonel Whitty also retires, and the vacancies occasioned by the re tirement of the four Lieutenant-Colonels above named, will be filled up in the month of April next by the promotions of Major J. W. Wood, Major W. E. Jackson, Minor G. Dum ford, and Allier Dalton, to be Lieutenant-Colonels. Four Second Captains will consequently be • promoted to be First Captains; and four, if not more, Lieutenants to be Captains, as there are several of that rank about to retire on full-pay in the course of April next. Lieutenant-Colonel Chesney, the enterprising traveller, whose routine of duty gave him the command of the Royal Artillery in China, has arrived at Hong-Kong, and assumed the command of that branch of the service, and. ranks as Brigadier-General. This gallant officer, immediately on his arrival, ordered the- commence ment of operations to ameliorate the unhealthy state of the island, and has given instructions to drain the land, and build hospitals on the north or most healthy side, and the works were commenced at the date of the latest letters from that quarter. The murderer of M. Donon Cadot, the banker, of Pontoise, who was at the same time robbed of cash, bank notes, and bills, to the amount of 800,000 f., has at last, by the vigilant activity of the police of Paris, been discovered and arrested. A man named Rousselet, a . blacksmith and wheelwright, at Sannois, near Franconville (Seine-et-Oise), bore a 'bad name - , frequently leaving his home, often in the night, nobody .knowing where he .went. His means of .sub . sistence were precarious, and he was Much in debt. At about the period of the death of M. Donon Cadot, the cir cumstances of Rousselet suddenly changed. He paid his debts, and made considerable purchases ; accounting for this improvement in his fortune to some, by stating that he had inherited property, and to others by telling them that he had found a heavy purse of money at the railroad station. These tales, however, did not satisfy his neigh bours, who bbserved that he had become sad and silent, • ceased from working, and, indeed, scarcely ever went out of his house. These indications of :a disturbed mind reached the ears of the magistracy, and,• coupling them with the dates of the death of the Pontoise banker, and the unac- Countable alteration in the affairs of the Rousselet family, the police determined to arrest them. On Sunday this was exe cuted by officers sent expressly from Paris. Searches pro duced the most overwhelming evidence. Bills drawn or en dorsed in favour of M. Donon Cadet were found in the dwell ing. These were strengthened by comparing the address of the envelope of a packet sent to Pontoise, containing a &eat number of, stolen bills, with the handwriting of one of the children of Rou.sselet, which was unquestionably the same. Rousselet; his wife,' 'and three children, were secured, and brought to Paris. When Rousselet saw that he was de tected,.and that his conviction was inevitable, lie attempted to commit suicide, but was prevented. He had evidently for some time contemplated this act, for he had dug a sufficient hole in his garden to make his grave, and had chalked on the wall his desire that his body, when found, should be buried there. M. Gay Lussac was two days ago seriously injured in the laboratory at the Garden of Plants, by the following accident As the professor was opening a bottle, in order to Make an experiment, the sudden adMission of the air inflamed the contents and. burst the bottle with such violence that persons outside .conceived it to be the report of a musket. M. Gay Lussac was thrown down, with his face aid hinds dreadfully cut by the fragments of the bottle, but it is hoped that none of the sinews or articulations of the hands are ma terially affected.

T 2 OCCUPATION OF '- The following appears in the Journal des Dibats : " Roads of Papaiti, Nov. 9, 1843, " On board of the - titanic. " On the 4th of this month we arrived in the bay of Papaiti, the same day as the frigate - Danae; and three days -before- the frigate Seine Blanche. On the next day the following order appeared : " The Vice-Admiral in commanctof the station of the Pacific Ocean informs the commanding officers and crews of vessels in the roads of. Pappiti, that the Queen Pomare refusing obstinately to recognise the treaty concluded on the 9th of September, 1842, and ratified by his Majesty Louis Philippe, - he is coin- Pelled to declare that the Queen Pomare has cease d to reign over the Society Islands -and their inhabi tants, and to take possession of the islands in the name of the King of France. In consequence the frigate Uranie will debark to-morrow morning,- at six, the company of Marine Artillery, and the Jaen dependent on that service,' &c. I — will now explain to you - the - circumstances hich have so much changed the position of the respectiVe parties to the last treaty. It appeared that 'nothing trioie was *anted to the treaty of the, 9th - of Nevember, ,signe4 b y Queen Pomare, and by the Commander-in-Chiet of the French Forces, to make it valuable and executable in all its clanses; but the signature of the King of the French. Mr. 'Pritchard, missionary, and merchant, and Consul- of the British Government, did not inter fere .with the negotiations, and he even disavowed the acts of his representative. It ` - seems, hosi.- ever, that the Queen of Tahiti had exceeded the powers which the - methodist merchant had left her in his absence. In fact. Mr. Pritchard was in London when the treaty ,was concluded. But even his long acquaintance with the . coun t ry , an d his observatioris, as a journal of New -Holland skri ously said, `of French manoeuvres among file-South Sea Islands,' inspired him with fears ..for the inde pendence of Tahiti, and he communicated theM to Lord Aberdeen and to his colleagnes.. The -English Cabinet did not, however, pay much attention to -the representation of Mr. Pritchard, and it limited itself to sending,'as a mark of kindness to the Otaheitean Government'„ a carriage for roma*, and a coat beced cloth for her. husband. - ° — trlg - r:Pritchard leaves England with his fears and his presents. He arrived at Sydney, and there learned what had passed : under the inspiration of the chiefs which surrounded her, and of her oldest and wisest counsellors, the Queen of Otaheite had placed herself under the protection of the French Govern ment. On hearing this disastrons intelligence, Mr. Pritchard did not lose a moment iiiliagtening to re gain the power which had escaped him. He ob tained from the Governor of New Holland, Sir Geo. Gibbs, a large sum of money, intended for the pur chase of additional presents, and he succeeded in obtaiuing a promise from Commodore Nicholas, com mander of the Vindictive, of recalling the French to national good faith with irresistible arguments. " Strong in menaces and in seduction, Mr. Pritchard embarked on • board the VindictiVe, and arrived at Tahiti, where it did not take much time, nor many efforts, to persuade the Queen, like a bold child, to re turn to her duty. The s i g ht of a carriage, and of some rags, not to speak of a formidable battery of cannon, were enough to turn her head. " Thus not many days had elapsed after the arrival of the Consul and the English commodore, when the flag of the protectorate was taken from the house, commodious and elegant as it is, called the palace of the Queen, and Pomare hastened to replace it with* one which had been given to her by the 'captain of the Vindictive. Commodore Nicholas did still more ; he - landed his guns, and placed them in battery, so as to command the entrance of the roads. France had then at Tahiti but one corvette of 21 guns . ; hut the captain of the Boussola, and sub sequently the captain of the Embuscade, addressed to him such energetic remonstrances, that the English commander thought fit to abandon his hostile demon strations against a friendly flag, and lie withdrew his guns. Commodore Nicholas, nevertheless, remained two months in the roads, not losing any occasion of treating with derision the French protectorate, and of annoying the provincial government left by Admiral Dupetit, Thouars. A little later and the captain of the Vindictive, one of those old sailors who nourish almost to madness the recollection of national _quarrels, might have paid for the hatred, absurd, and extravagant feeling which he avowed against France ; but no large ship of war with the French flag ap peared to oppose his insulting extravagance, until Admiral Thomas, commander-in-chief on the English station in the South Sea, ordered the Vindictive away, and replaced her by the Dublin, which frigate has remained a peaceful spectator of what was going on, and never neglecting the courtesy due to our officers. " Nevertheless, it became urgent to settle on a de finitive basis our relations with the Society Islands, and to put an end to the obstacles which were raised against us by the irresolution of the Queen, and the malevolence of her counsellors. The Uranie frigate arrived at the Marquesas Islands, bringingout the Go vernor of the French possessions in Oceania, and King's Commissioner to the Queen of Otaheite. She found in the roadstead of Taio-Hae the Heine Blanche, bearing the Admiral's flag, and the Danae. M. Dupetit Thouars and M. Bruit agreed to present themselves before Papaiti, with the three frigates. To make under these circumstances a great display of force was doing an act of generosity. The issue of a oontest with the inhabitants would not have -been doubtful, but it would have been a bad commencement on our work of civilisation to have shed their blood. It was much more important to fill them with an idea of our power, as they had been persuaded 'that France had but one large man-of-war, and that it was always the same vessel which called there at different times, painted in a different manner to prevent recognition. " The departure of the Reine Blanche 'from Taio- Haehad preceded ours. We a nc h ore d th ree 'd ays after in the Bay of Papaiti, and we learned that the endeavours.of the Admiral during those three days to persuade the Queen to frankly admit the treaty she had signed and ratified, and to re-hoist the flag of the protectorate, had been fruitless. It was necessary to put an end to this bad faith, which had been brought about by bad advice. On. Sunday, the sth November, the order of the Admiral appeared; which proclaimed the dethronement of the Queen and the sovereignty of the :King of the French, and which announced that, on the following morning - -aLf . s_ix o'clock, the three frigates would land their men, aiia the tri-coloured flag would be immediately hoisted on the Queen's palace, and preparations were made to salute the national colours at daybreak. "In the night the orders were changed. The Ad miral wished to act as long as possible with indul gence. He thought that the order_of the day pub. lished in the day, would have lieemsuffident to have set aside the suggestions of Mr. Pritchard And his colleagues, and to point out to the poor Queeli precipice on which she stood. A delay was granted. Noon was the time fixed at which the tri-coloured flag should be hoisted 'by order -of = the Queen, and France would then content herself with the execution. of the other clauses of the treaty. If this was-.not done the dethronement of . Queen Pomare wai" to be declared, and her - flag, replaced by our own. We waited for noon, :and the intervening hours were those of emotion and lively anxiety. An Indian Princess, the issue of a family which was illustrious and powerful in her country, was either to renounce the inheritance. of her ancestors or return to good faith and equity—France was either to possess nominal supremacy in these fine islands, ofpossess them entirely. Serious interests were thus attached to the hoisting of a flag. The quartet-decks of all the vessels in the roadstead , including that of the Eng- ,sh frigate, were crowded with officers th officers ; all their telescope s were directed towards the Queen's palace, and men were poked on the tops on the look out. The hour past ; the flag of Pomare was still waving ; Pomare—the blind, the obstinate Pomare —refused to yield to our demands. Two hundred artillery and marines were landed, with 300 or 400 sailors, and surrounded the Queen's house, in which every thing was silent—the flag of Pomare was removed ; M. d'Aubigny, the Governor of Tahiti, exclaimed : ' Officers, soldiers, and sailors, and you inhabitants of these islands, to whom we bring justice and peace, in the name of the ring, our august master, I take pos session of this country. We shall be content to die for the defence of the glorious tri-coloured flag. Hoist the flag !' This order was executed amidst the rolling of the drums and cries of Fire le Rol' Queen Pomare ' has ceased to reign, and we tread French land ! "-The - flag of the English Consulate was immediately lowered.- A rather large number of natives were as sembled in front of the residence of M. Pritchard, and the latter was seen addressing thew with vehemence. HoWever, his exhortations do not A 4 eeni to have been attended with much success. In the evening the town had- resumed its wonted trancpilllity ; the men smoked their cigars with as much insouciance, and the women exhibited their white teeth with a playful naivete, as if they had not just witnessed a revolution. " The Governor-General was installed on the Bth, and had a Council acknowledged, consisting of Cap tain d'Aubigny, Lieutenant Clon, and M. Macren hout, ex-Consul of France. " 4 proclamation, addressed to the inhabitants, has informed them that a full guarantee is granted to their persons, property, and the free exercise of their reli gious worship.
