A braver soldier, or a man of fx more gentle, affectionate, and modest, yet independent nature, never existed. Colonel CarmiChoel com menced his military career as an ensign in the 59th. Regiment, in 1809, whilst he was yet a mere boy_ His first campaign was in the Peninsular war, -when, towards its close, he was four times wounded, and QR one of these occasions very severely. He was era gaged at the battle of Vittoria, at the siege and) capture of St. Sebastian, the battles of the Nieve and Nivelle, and at the crossing of the Bidassoa. After the escape of Napoleon from Elba, the Colonel was with his regiment at Waterloo, and was next engaged at the storming of Cambray. Shortly after the peace he joined his regiment in India, where he served in the Mahratta war of 181 T and 1818, and in the commotions of Ceylon in the following year. In 1826 he particularly dis tinguished himself at the siege of Bhurtpore, being then Aide-de-camp to Sir Jasper Nicol. O n some of these occasions his conduct and bravery sew: made the subject of special mention in general orders. In Canada also, during the late disturbances, his bstlr. vices merited and received similar acknowledg ments. He was in command of the regular and militia forces when Beauharnois was given up by the insurgents, and afterwards commanding At Co the teau-de-Lac, he was as efficient in keepieg quirt of the provinces as he had been before in quelling the insurrection. He attained his majority icy purchase after leaving India in 1829 ; his Unattached'. Lieutenant-Colonelcy was the reward of his service in Canada. At St. Sebastian he was the only officer out of thirteen who accompanied the advance that. entered the town ; and at Bhurtpore he did signal services at the greatest personal risk, by examining - 34 part of the interior defences three days previous to) the assault. Some of the trophies taken at Bhurtpore were handsomely presented to him by the Indian Go vernment. On the occasion of the shipwreck of a portion of his regiment, on board the Lord Mel's-11W transport, near Kinsale, in the year 1815, he displayed' his admirable courage, coolness, and the influ ence he possessed over his men,' and was mainly instrumental in conducing to their preservation. In Canada, the Glengarry Highlanders looked up to him as a brother, while they obeyed him as a chief. The cairn raised by them in honour of Lord Seaton, was planned at the suggestion of Colonel Carmichael, and his own assistance in rearing this singular structure was not wanting. He was greatly attached to all relating to the Gael, and cherished their language, their customs, and the remem!irance of all connected with the north, in whatever I;.a.rt of the world his destiny led him. The duties of private life he discharged in the most exem plary manner. He was a devoted and affectionate re lation, an attached and constant friend, and a highly agreeable and intelligent companion. His constitu tional firmness and intrepidity were united to the mildest disposition and most unassuming demea nour. The respect in which he was held vas strikingly evinced on the occasion of his death„ which was felt by all who knew him as a personal calamity ; while his funeral was numerously attended both in Forres and Strathspey. At the former of these places, nearly all the respectable inhabitants followed his remains, and many of the neighbouring proprietors (among whom were the Earl of Moray, Sir W. G. G. Cumming, Bart., &c.) joined in the same mournful tribute to departed worth. He now sleeps in his " narrow bed" amongst his native hills in the church-yard of Cromdale. Peace to his ashes—ho nour to his memory !—lnverness Courier. MAUCIILINE.—LORD GLENLEE.—On Monday the 12th inst., Lord Glenlee entered upon the 90th year of his age. A handsome entertainment was dispensed at Barskimming to the people in his Lordship's employ ment ; and in the evening about thirty of the inhabitants of Mauchline met at supper in the Black Bull Inn, to drink his Lordship's health, Dugald Hamilton, Esq., in. the chair. The chairman, in proposing the toast of ate evening—the health of the Venerable Baronet—passed ts high and just encomium upon his character and useful ness ; and the Rev. Mr. Fairlie, minister of the parish, in proposing the health of Miss Miller, stated that he had that day received from this benevolent lady the sum of 101., to be distributed amongst the poor of the parish.. A number of other appropriate toasts were given ; and the evening was spent in the utmost harmony. NEW THRESHING MACHINE.—There is now ID operation at Tywarnhale experimental farm, a threshing machine, which, from its simplicity of construction, and its great power, is a vast improvement on the former threshing machine, or those now generally used. r performs the work of three horses, and threshes 125 sheaves of wheat, and 225 sheaves of barley or oats an hour ; and this is performed by a poor pony of thirteen hands high. The improver is a miner, named Michael Elarris, a poor man residing at Silverwell, in the parish of St. Agnes, who is possessed of surprising natural genius, and therefore deserves support. He carries the whole apparatus about in a small cart, and contracts with the farmers of the neighbourhood at per 100 sheaves. Several gentlemen have seen the machine, and pro nounced it to be the greatest improvement yet made.— Ilrest Briton. RAILWAY INTERCOURSE AND NATIONAL ANTIPA THIES.—The Hon. Mr. Liddell, M.P., at the late open- , ing of the Newcastle and Darlington Railway, is stated by the York Gazette to have spoken on this subject as follows :—" He could show them the truth of the adage, that great events often spring from apparently trifling causes, and how, in fact, it appeared to him that nothing was more likely to preserve and maintain a universal peace than the establishment of railways in this country and over the whole world. They had all been very much in the habit of attributing a fictitious and tinsel glory to the blaze of war ; whilst the trials which it necessarily involved, and the dangers which it held out, were known only to those who were called on to perform a part in the scene. They had heard of their natural enemies from childhood, and in their infancy France had been painted to them as their greatest foe, and consequently they had been induced through life to look with feelings of hostility on their continental neigh bours. He had been living lately in the neighbourhood of a railway—the Folkestone and Dover line—and on Whit-Monday last he had seen the whole population of the neighbourhood of the metropolis, and also the counties of Surrey, Kent, and Sussex, pouring forth their myriads to take the advantage of the holidays, and migrate for a time, through the instrumentality of the London and Dover line, amid fresh scenes and pros pects, and whiling away their leisure in a trip to Bou logne or Calais, which, but for the formation of rail ways, might have been spent in encouraging feelings of irritation against their natural enemies. This was but a single example, yet it spoke volumes to a reflecting mind on the great results which must be realised from the extension of railway interests." A NEW TRICK.—It has become a maxim among those who supply the labourers or. the railway lines with necessaries, to have the money in one hand before they deliver the goods from the other, to prevent any possibi lity of being cheated. The following device was lately practised by 'one of those workmen to evade this safe practice. The dupes of his ingenuity were a couple of shoemakers, residing at Shap. The labourer, having ordered a pair of shoes, with particular direction as to the manner of their make, went to the other, and gave a similar order, with the like directions ; both pairs to be ready by a certain day. Accordingy, on the day specified, he called for his shoes, and played his part so as to manage, by some petty 'excuses, to get a shoe away with him from each place, without paying for them. A shoe for each foot was all he wanted ; and, of course, he left the sons of St. Crispin to condole with each other on their loss.—Kendal Mercury. MANCHESTER TESTIMONIAL TO MR. AI ROWLAND HILL.—The Committee, we perceive, have issued an address to the salesmen, book-keepers, and other persons employed in establishments, from which we make the following extract :—" To Mr. Hill, whose services as yet are unacknowledged, the public owe a great debt of grati tude. Political services and military achievements are rewarded, yet, whatever may be thought of their value, what are they in comparison with the peaceful triumphs of commerce, civilisation, knowledge, and religion, which arise from the more easy intercourse of mind with mind, and which the penny postage system has so essentially promoted ?" Before closing the subscription, which has already been liberally supported by the merchants, ma nufacturers, and tradesmen of the town, it has been thought desirable to give an opportunity to salesmen, book-keepers, and other persons employed in warehouses, &c., to express their gratitude to Mr. Rowland Hill, from whose system they have, in common with other classes, derived inestimable advantages. It is hoped that every individual will contribute according to his means and ability.—Manchester Guardian. STATE OF THE POOR IN EDINBURGH.—It is grati fying to be able to state, that the health of the city among the poorer classes is better at the present time than it has been for many years past. The fever that scourged us so severely last year, has now almost en tirely disappeared, a solitary case occurring only occa sionally to remind us of its former severity. It ap pears, also, that employment is much more general—a state of matters which the harvest will, of course, still further increase. From the combined influence of these two causes, th e num b er of appl i cat i ons to t h e D est i te t e Sick Society during the quarter that has just passed is fewer than has been known for many previous years.— Ca iedenia 7/ Mercury. THE ARTESIAN WELL OF GRENELLE.—The Pre fect of the Seine, accompanied by M. Arago and the engineers of the city of Paris, yesterday visited the basins of the Estrapade, into which the water of the artesian well of Grenelle was introduced for the first time. The flow was in the highest degree satisfactory.

LACE AND SONNETS. THE ASSIGNEES of Mr. RUSSELL 166 n, OXFORD-STREET, Laceman and Haberdasher, have sold the whole of his ♦ aluable stock, in one lot, for cash, to FRANCE AND MOROCCO. (From the Times.) The violence and rapidity with which the succes sive operations of the French forces engaged in the war with Morocco are carried :on, have at least the advantage that they strengthen our hopes of a speedy termination of this dangerous and embarrassing state of hostilities on the confines of Europe. It was a favourite argument of the organs of the Opposition, who have attributed to France the formal design of subjugating the empire of Morocco, that the war was to be protracted by every imaginable artifice, and the Moors menaced by the slow and steady progress of the French armies, tending not only to the defeat of their troops, but to the conquest of their territory. It must, however, now be confessed, that if any arti fices have been used for the purposes of delay, they have not been adopted by the French. Marshal Bugeaud has fought a pitched battle against an army at least three times as numerous as his own ; and the Prince de Joinville has proceeded with the utmost rapidity to destroy the principal mercantile port of the empire. We trust that an interval may now inter vene, during which the effect of these operations on the Sultan Abderachman may be discovered. The French Government continue to demand the very same terms, and no others, which they pro posed before the war began, namely, the disso lution of the large b o di es of troops collected on the borders of the province of Oran, and the ces sation of those supplies and that shelter in the terri tory of Morocco which have so long enabled Abd-el- Kader to carry on a harassing system of warfare along the confines of the Desert. The strongest as surances have been, and are still given, that the conces sion of these points by a formal treaty will at once restore to France that security which is all she claims, or bas any right to claim, and will terminate the war. tations: of John Bull himself ? John _Bull has fleets; knows he has; sees he has; but of what value are fleets if merely to watch in silent awe or scorn the work of enemies ? It would be exhilarat ing to learn what old Commodore Owen is purposing, now he sees this next step at Mogadore. A wonder is, how he restrai ne d th e bl oo d o f hi s B r iti s h tars from rising before this. And a miracle it will be if lieute nants, captains, and even cockswains of her Majesty's naval service, are to be kept idle as they are left, from some direct act of impeachable impetuosity. It is high time to demand from M. Guizot the terminus of his Morocco undertakings. For this country, it has nothing to inquire about Abd-el-Kader—whether the war is only to end by chasing him from even the bare possibility of aggression on Algeria, or whe ther it end where it commenced, leaving the Emir unsubjugated. That is the business of France. But England has to see that in the martial race after Abd-el-Kader, her commerce is not affected, her political alliance not touched—the Morocco realm not prevented from remaining intact. All that England is to zee is, that her path over the Mediterranean is free; that she retains, as she was accustomed to hold, the command, for the passing to and fro of her ships, the outlets and outports which connect it with the ocean. The envy and jealousy of France at the strong position of Britain in that sea, so far from exciting surprise, is simply natural and most likely. But England is not. to relinquish her power in that quarter because envied in it by France. She won it by sound, good, solid, British characteristics ; by enter prise, industry, courage, dauntless perseverance, a free and lion spirit ; and she shall keep it, let the naval armaments of France aspire to what they may— let pseudo-democracy in France growl till the bull dog ire of her five hundred years' rival be fairly up. Let England's cannon roll from the neighbourhood of Mogadore till its reverberations be caught up by the Gibraltar rock, and where the puny thunders of the Suffren, La Belle Poule, the Jemappes ?—let echo answer where. But war is not a thing to wish for, if it can be decently averted. It is not to be denied, however, that a suspicious indication of the necessity or inevitability of it is given by this new occupation on the French part ; and in anxiety it is awaited to see what events on England's part will arise as a coun terbalance, or at least as an admonition to French am bition, that thus far shall it go, but not farther.

The bombardment of Mogadore is one of the leading operations of the maritime campaign, which was foreseen and projected from the moment that hostilities became inevitable; and in this respect it is less calculated to call forth our animadversion than the attack on Tangiers. Indeed, although no very detailed account can yet have reached us of the pre cise mode of operations adopted against this place by the French squadron, we are enabled to form a toler able conjecture as to the nature of the attack, by our knowledge of the preparations made by the order of the French Government for this very purpose. The port of Mogadore is known to be too shallow to admit of the close approach of ships of the line within such a distance as to effect the destruction of the fortifica tions. With a view to this circumstance some light vessels, called bric canonieres, carrying four guns, were prepared some time ago in one of the principal French arsenals, and ordered to join the squadron. These gun boats were to be placed under the command of an officer well known for his services on the coast of Africa, the late Governor of Senegal, who probably supplied the French Government with the requisite information as to the state of the harbour of Mogadore. If these facts are accurate, as we believe they will turn out to be, it is probable that the bombardment was com menced by the gunboats, and that under the shelter of their fire a landing was effected on an island situated at the mouth of the harbour, from which it became practicable to bring a heavier battering train to hear upon the city. The nature of this mode of attack will also explain the very considerable loss of men which appears to have attended the action. We must, however, wait for further particulars before the accuracy of this supposition can be ascertained. Several circumstances connected with Mogadore and our own relations with the Empire of Morocco tend to heighten the anxiety with which we await the arrival of further intelligence. That port is by far the most important place of trade in the empire, and we might almost add on the whole coast of Africa, for since the French occupation of Algeria the cara vans from the interior of the country, as well as the merchants of Morocco, are principally supplied with British commodities through Mogadore. The total and fierce devastation of such a city—not only of the fortifications, but of the city ; the occupation of an island in the harbour, in which a French garrison has been placed; the establishment of a blockade; and the possible, if not probable, destruction of British property by the bombardment, are events which can hardly fail to increase the danger which already beset, to no small amount, the maintenance of our pacific relations with France ; and, although we refrain from expressing a peremptory opinion on a case which is only certainly known to us at present through the imperfect medium of a telegraphic dis patch, there is certainly enough known already to call forth the utmost vigilance on the part of the Queen of England's Government. As it is, however, most important not to allow this reasonable anxiety to degenerate into excessive apprehension, it is well to bear in mind the analogy which certainly exists between these operations of the French and our own recent proceedings in the war with China. We assume that the object of the two Governments in both wars was the same, namely, not the acquisition of territory, but to compel a bar barous Court, ill -acquaint e d with the real strength of the enemy it affected to defy, to accede to certain conditions calculated to give peace and security to the future relations of the two countries • to this we a dded, which the French d o not on this occasion, a specific claim of indemnity, and the occupation of an i s land. The mode of enforcing compliance with these demands of ours was by attacks or contributions levied on the maritime t owns, and eventua ll y b y th e invasion of the principal ri ver o f t h e emp i re . With some allowances for circumstances peculiar to China, and for the interest other European States have in Morocco, the cases are not so dissimilar as to allow us to express any very lively surprise or irritation at a conduct on the part of France so like that which we should probably have held under similar circum stances. Most earnestly do w e hope that this parallel will not end in the work o f violence an d t h e opera tions of war ; that the same liberal and temperate spirit which dictated th e condit i ons o f t h e B r i tish trea ty with China will prevail in the future adjust ment of the quarrel between France and ; and that the Sovereign meantime,t ne g facts, this a d n t i b d s the s d n t e r e t o x e u t r s m few e d t days of c y t heart other rane country may not b e driven by his own obstina and unequal contest. In the r e o f b a p b e l c y l , e a h r o u t h p course with regard to Morocco and Ot h erte on which the peace of the world 'depends a ; and we have reason to believe that, if the balance drops to the side of war, the present French Ministry will retire from the direction of the Government, overpowered not by the Opposition, but by a crisis in affairs they have anxiously laboured to avert. (From the Morning Advertiser.) The battle of Islet and the bombardment of Moga dore have now to be added to the record of French progress in Mauritania. Neither has the Admiral of the Gallic fleet been restrained, as he was at Tan giers, from the fact of occupation, but has literally proceeded to the point of taking possessien of the port of Mogadore, as well as of an island opposite, and of establishing on the latter a garrison, suited of course to the demands of strength made • upon it. On the receipt of this intelligence the French funds fell. 1 No wonder they did. This is the matter which makes a call—a fresh and imperative one —upon the attention of this country. The Morocco question may now be said to have assumed an aspect in which everything like the solid interests of Great Britain in the Medi terranean must take alarm. It will be inadmissible to argue that by the formal occupation of a certain portion of Morocco territory, France has only done that which, under the circumstances, was natural and do. It will be proper for her to senseless to assume that occupy where she conquers she must, if it were only for the sake of bringing the differences between herself and Abderrahman to a termination. When a post is occupied by an enemy, when h it to be relin quished . • hed The end of war may no t b e t h e surrender of parts of soil taken in war. A reason may be, found for retention, precisely as well as for a first annexation. France may de mand the securities of an undisturbed peace • and ' just as easily as she has taken th e island off' Moga dore, may insist upon the necessity of its remaining hers. Under these facts, what is England to do ? It has been said, touch Morocco, the merest point of it, to the effect of occupation, and the amicable relations between France arid England are at an end. Now France has touched the Morocco territory, She has raised her banner on a portion of it. She has taken possession of a port on the coast most important— most imminent to British interests. This is the limit the question has reached to-day. Now, what step is England to take in it ? What course does Lord Aberdeen propose for himself? Remain passive ; wait, still ; we suppose. But remain p ass i ve—wait on still idle spectators, for what? Does Lord Aber deen know ? Can he tell this country, for what pur pose ? That France may extend the line of her occupation. That M. Marshal Bugeaud on land, and Admiral M. de Joinville afloat, may let the world see what she can do, only if Great Britain will remain quiet. But will this meet the expec• IIR W.

ADVERTISEMENTS INSERTED in ALL THE THREE PAPERS, Morning Noon, and Night, thereby insuring a TOWN and COUNTRY CIRCULATION, at ONE CHARGE, wool ; this duty has since been increased until the money duty amounts to 35f. on unwashed, and 55f. on washed wool, and has become very burdensome to European commerce. The export of oorn is totally prohibited, and whole provinces producing enough to load a whole fleet are reduced to the most abject poverty. The Sultan finding that, notwithstanding this excessive in. crease of duty, the produce allowed to be exported was still purchased, and that the purchasers continued to gain a profit upon it, he determined to appropriate to himself a portion even of this gain. The merchants of Mogadore, in order to meet these heavy charges upon their exports, were obliged to augment the prices of the merchandise they imported from Europe. Now the im port duties amount to only 10 per cent.—the Sultan could not take more upon the goods to be consumed by his own subjects, because their poverty would prevent them from purchasing if the prices were raised too high. But there must be added to the 10 per cent. the regalos, or particular claims of the Pacha and the chief officers of the customs, and also the perpetual frauds committed in taking the weights and measures. To prevent the decay of the commerce of Mogadore, Abderrahman con ceived the idea of granting credit for the customs duties to Moorish and Jewish merchants, and to one or two .chiropean houses. This gave birth to a crowd of small dealers without capital, who went keadlong into specu lations, and the trade of ➢iogadore lost all its solidity, and the Sultan runs the risk of losing several millions as soon as it is stopped by the war."

SO UTHAMPTON THEATRE. SATURDAY, AuG. 24.—The play-goers have this week had a great treat in the engagement of Mr. Webster, lessee of the Haymarket, and Madlle. Celeste, for four night.. The engagement commenced on Monday last, when the pieces forming the bill of fare, were St. Mary's Eve, a domestic drama, of an interesting plot, and a well written dialogue ; the Woman Hater ; and the Trum peter's Daughter. In the first piece Mademoiselle Celeste performed the part of Madeline, a French girl. Her pretty foreign accent suited the character well, and her acting in the more serious portions of the piece was no less feeling and impassioned than it was piquant and agreeable in the lighter and comic situations. The effect on the audience fully bears out this remark, for we ob served the sympathy of many of the fair sex excited even to tears. It was a beautiful and touching performance. The Woman Hater followed, in which both Celeste and Webster appeared. This is a very slight interlucde with nothing but the good acting of the two " stars" to make it attractive. The pith of it consisted merely in the reformation of the Woman Hater's misanthropic ten dency by the irresistible effect of the charms of Madlle. Celeste, as Leila.—The Trumpeter's Daughter is a lively and amusing farce from the pen of that prolific author, Mr. Coyne, written to introduce the Polka, which was danced by Mr. Webster and Celeste in a very graceful style. This was loudly and unanimously encored. The house was crowded. On Wednesday night the pieces were Victor and Hor tense, the Trumpeter's Daughter, and St. Mary's Eve. The plot of the first piece was interesting and gave full scope for the abilities of both Madlle. Celeste and Mr. Webster, who played the two principal characters. On Thursday the first piece was a lively and well got up farce, which was very popular at the Haymarket two or three seasons back—The Pretty Girls of Stilbery. A number of Cadets, headed by Ernest (Mr. Webster), who in the part gives an extraordinary personation of the Emperor Napoleon, play a trick upon the village girls, of whom Margot (Madlle. Celeste) is the chief. They discover the plot and revenge themselves by adopt ing the uniform of Prussian troops and surprising the Cadets, in a slumber into which they fall after a riotous jollification, and make them prisoners. This scene was excellently got up. The dresses, arms, and accoutrements of the fair campaigners were complete, and they were put through their exercise by Mademoiselle Celeste in a very clever manner. This was loudly and deservedly applauded. Mr. Webster looked the fac-simile of Napo leon, and his personation of the Great Captain excited the greatest admiration. . . Last night Mr. Webster and Madlle. Celeste made their last appearance, and took their benefit, when the house was well filled. The pieces were Maria Ducange, The Pretty Girls of Stitherg, and the Trumpeter's Daughter. This engagement has given great satisfaction. They opened at Ryde, Isle of Wight, last evening (Tuesday) to a most fashionable audience and are re engaged for four nights in the ensuing week here. SUICIDE OF A LADY AT ELTllAM.—Throughout the whole of Tuesday this little village was in a state of the greatest excitement in consequence of the following melancholy affair :—Shortly after twelve o'clock as a young man named Bently was crossing some fields of his master's, he discovered a fashionable tuscan bonnet, trimmed with blue and white satin ribbon, lying amongst the rushes on the bank of a small but deep pond, which, on picking up, he found contained a pocket and a number of letters. These he took to his master, who sent for Sergeant Osborn, 13 H, of the Ettham police, who pro ceeded to the pond, and from a number of female foot prints being round it he concluded that some one was in the water. There being no drags in the village, he was compelled to wait until a smith had made a brace of hooks, with which, after a short period, he drew out the body of a person, apparently a woman about 30 years of age, but from the circumstance of there being a great quantity of hair upon the chin he imagined it was a man in woman's clothes. The body was conveyed to the Crown Inn, Court-yard, Eltham, when it proved to be that of a woman, and evidently had not been long in the water, as a handkerchief in the hand was quite dry in the palm. She was elegantly attired in a pale green plaid silk gown, and cape to match, trimmed with black blonde. Her linen was marked "M. W. J." She had also a valuable gold watch, name " Harlfriend, 157, Regent-street." On a subsequent examination of the pocket, it was found to contain a considerable sum in gold and silver, a letter addressed to her mother, " Mrs. Jackson, Hanover-street," several addressed to " Miss Jackson," and others to her friends at Bath and Ber wick, taking a farewell of them. There was also a will bequeathing property, to which she is entitled, to the amount of some thousands. Yesterday afternoon Mr. C. J. Carttar, Coroner for West Kent, held an inquest on the body of the deceased, Miss Mary Ward Jackson, aged thirty years. Mr. Isaac Henry Tyas, of 13, Beau fort-buildings, Strand, said he was well acquainted with the deceased. On Sunday three weeks ho dined with her at Osborne's Hotel, Adeiphi. She was then very unwell, and had been so since last July. On Monday witness heard that she was missing. He was satisfied that her mind was impaired. After some further evi dence had been gone into, Mr. Alexander John Suther land, physician, of Fludyer-street, Westminster, said he had seen deceased several times. She was decidedly of unsound mind. Verdict—" Insanity." METROPOLITAN IMPROVEMENTS. — BetWEED Hol born and Oxford-street the line of the new street is in a state of considerable forwardness. The vaults for the houses on either side of the way are completed, and the width of the thoroughfare is now marked out ; through the whole distance a sewer about fifteen feet below the surface is being formed, and is nearly half completed. When the whole length is finished (which is now ex pected to be in the course of three or four weeks), there will be a direct communication between Holborn and Oxford-street, for foot passengers. Many now take this course, avoiding the circuitous way by St. Giles's Church. While digging the ground for the vault on the site which was formerly the area of the Rookery the workmen met with some curious remains. Outside the walls, where stood the hospital for lepers, was found the root of a vine, which is stated to have been celebrated for its fruit, and which was in good condition. Several pieces of marble slabs were also taken out of the ruins of tke above hospital, as also a marble slab with the follow ing inscription on it:—" Buckeridge-street, 1688." It is not generally known Ibit this street was built shortly after the fire of London, and out of some of the materials, which were publicly sold after that disastrous calamity. A quantity of wood excavated here (some of which is oak) was discovered to be in a charred state. Several of the above articles are in the possession of the landlord of the Buckeridge Arms, which is the only house re maining of that neighbourhood. HusistiNo-BIRDS.—We found many humming birds at Port San Antonio, which we attributed to the sheltered situation of the place, and the luxuriant growth of fuschias and other plants, upon the sweets of whose flowers they feed. Here, hewever, one of the same spe cies was seen sporting about in a most exposed place and during the fall of a snow shower—a proof of the hardy character of this little bird, which, if it does mi grate upon the approach of winter to a warmer clime, lingers, at least, as long as it possibly can. This was the middle of April ; the winter had, in fact, already commenced, and all the mountains around us were clothed with snow, while the ground was also coated with the same dazzling covering.— Voyages of the Adven .ture and Beagle. MOGADORE. We extract the following description from the De. bats : " Mogadore is comparatively a new town, having been founded by the Sultan Muley Mohammed in 1760, in order to have a port at the nearest point from Morocco, from which city it is distant about forty-eight leagues. Saffi, or Asfi, is the chief town of the province, only thirty-eight leagues from Morocco, seated in a bay, but has been abandoned as a port on account of its inconve nience and insecurity, from its being open to the westerly gales. The population of Mogadore may be estimated at about 12,000, of which 1,300 are Jews, and not more than 15 or 20 Europeans. It is the most commercial port of the empire, and returns a customs revenue of nearly 1,000,0001. Saffi produces only between 50,000 f. and 60,000 f., and the twin towns of Rabat and Salee, whose united population amounts to 52,000 souls, and are next in commercial importance to Mogadore, pro-. duce no more than 380,000. The town is called Souerah by the Moroccomen, it being to the isldnd alone that they give the name of Mogadore, after a saint called Sidi Mogodoul, whose tomb is to be seen on the coast opposite Souerah, and, with its chapel, is an terior to the foundation of the town. On the island alone, which is two English miles in circumfe rance, there was formerly a small fort built by the Portuguese, of whom memorials are to be found all along the coast from Tangiers to the country of Sous-el -Acsa, opposite the Canary Islands. The con struction of the town of Mogadore must have been at tended with great difficulties, particularly the south-west rampart, facing the island, which is raised on several rocks, against which the sea breaks with great violence, and which are united by two curtained works. The whole of the north wall, against which the sea also beats with equal violence, could not have been erected without much labour and skill beyond the science and strength of the natives. The plan was laid down by European engineers, and among them by a Frenchman named Cor nut. Masons and other artisans were brought from Europe, and some Frenchmen who had been made slaves were also employed as labourers. Cornut served the King of Morocco for ten years, but was so badly re warded, that he came back to France as poor as when he left it. Muley Mohammed transferred to Mogadore the inhabitants of Agadir (Santa Cruz), and forced the richest Moors to come in from the surrounding provinces and build houses. European merchants were encou raged to come and settle there by being offered facilities for trading, and thus the new town was not only built but peopled within the space of ten or twelve years. But in a few years more the heavy taxes and duties and rigid prohibitions paralysed the course of trade, and drove three-fourths of the merchants away, and the popula tion, which had amounted to 25,000, has gradually dwindled to less than one-half. The site of Mogadore presents at a distance that picturesque aspect which gained it the name of Souerah, which means a picture. The minarets, which rise to a great height above the ramparts bristling with cannon, certainly present from afar an interesting and beautiful sight ; but the interior of the town does not realise this promise, although its streets are regular, and it has some very fine buildings. The port is formed by the island, on the eastern side of which the trading vessels are moored, sheltered from the west and north winds, but exposed to those from the south-west, which f requen tl y bl ow w i t h great force, and cause severe losses. On the island are four batte ries of masonry, and the most considerable portion of the fortifications can play upon the island and the moor ing place with good effect, being at only about 1,500 yards distance, It would be impossible to occupy the port, without having previously ruined all the defences which thus protect it. Mogadore has never before been bombarded by a European squadron, buthas been twice besieged on the land side. It was gained possession of by the Chellous and Arabs after the death of Muly Mo hammed, during a war for the succession to the throne at the end of the short reign of Yezid. From 3,000 to 4,000 assailants got into the Cabash by scaling the walls in the night, but the next day they were driven out again by the garrison and the inhabitants with great loss, and the re bel army was compelled to raise the siege. During the flourishing times of the commerce of Mogadore, it ex ported to Lisbon, Cadiz, Marseilles, Gibraltar, and even to New York, large quantities of corn and wool, gum, al monds, olive oil, figs, wax, leather, goat-skins, aniseed, orange-peel, and many medicinal drugs ; and to the coast of Guinea were shipped bents, small mantles of whole wool, and other light articles in woollen and cotton, and other manufactures of the country used by the blacks. The imports consisted of bar iron, steel, cutlery, and hardware of all kinds, cloths, cottonades, silk handker chiefs, ornaments of gold and silver, pearl, amber and coral necklaces, looking-glasses, sugar, and spices. At that time there were 34 Christian houses of commerce established in the town, forming a small colony of about 100 Europeans. The Sultans of Morocco, in spite of their avarice and its gratification from the money the customs duties brought into their treasury, are secretly enemies to commerce, not only from their religion, but from policy. In order to deprive their subjects of the means of rebellion, they keep them poor, because rebel lion cannot be excited and maintained without money, and an army cannot be kept long together in that coun try without pay and the hope of plunder. A Govern ment has little to fear from a people divided into diffe rent races, where no man is rich or powerful enough to form a party. But the free exportation of corn and wool with which the country abounds, and all extensive commerce with Europe and America might create large fortunes, and give to families, and even to towns, suffi cient influence and strength to cause umbrage to a Go vernment ever jealous and alarmed. The Emperor Muley Soliman, the pudecessor of the present Emperor, deeply impressed with these ideas, began to bring them into action by closing the gates of Rabat, Amazor, Dar Beide, Mazagan, Saffi, and Santa Cruz, ordering the foreign merchants who resided there to remove to Mo gadore, with promises of protection and favour. Some time after he prohibited the exportation of wool, wheat, and oil, and laid enormously heavy export duties on other articles. The people of the town murmured, those of the country threatened revolt—the Government re presented it to be a sin to carry on commerce with in fidels. The present Sultan, without making any funda mental change in this system, felt the necessity of giving some protection to commerce in order to restore his trea sury. Having been for a long time Pacha of Mogadore before his accession, he had gained some insight into commercial affairs, and as far as a Mussulman can, ac quired some notions of civilisation. He at least compre hended how closely it was connected with his own pecu niary interests, w:Ciout troubling his mind about those of his subjects, and in the end transformed the adminis tration of the empire into one great undertaking for his own personal profit. His predecessor had treated all commerce with Christians as scandalous and impious, being denounced by the Koran. Abderrahman, to recruit his treasury, conceived an ingenious device for meeting the prohibitions of the law of the Prophet, and contrived to gain the assent of the devotees and teachers of the doctrines of Islamism to the following sophistry :—The law forbids us to sell to infidels any food or clothing, but the law commands us to make war upon them, and for this we must have gunpowder ; there fore, by exacting from them a contribution of gunpowder for each sale we make to them, we turn commerce to the maintenance and advantage of the true faith. This being admitted as unanswer able logic, gunpowder, the manufacture o f which in Morocco is very inferior, was received from the bands of the Christians by the chief of the true believers, on pay ment of export duties. At first, one pound of powder and 15f. was imposed upon the export of each quintal of CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. SENTENCES AND SESSIONAL RESULTS.

CITY OF DUBLIN REGISTRY. - The state of the Parliamentary registration for Dublin city affords a practical evidence of the rapid decay of that Orange fervour which preceded the last general election, and which continued, although with some abatement, for a year or two after the expulsion of the Whigs. Lat terly, however, the Orange and Tory party in Dublin seem to have deserted electieneering as a hopeless and. unprofitable speculation. The agents who had managed the registry for the Tories have retired in disgust, having failed to obtain the places they expected ; and on account of the general apathy existing amongst the party, there is a lack of the fends required for the payment of new agents, and all the incidental expenses of hunting for claimants to the franchise, and bringing them to the Registry Court. At the preceding registry sessions, as well as the present, the Liberals have made immense way towards recovering their lost ground. Day by day the Liberals obtain a majority, and the Tories now can scarcely muster a claimant. On Satur day the Liberals registered seventeen electors, whilst the Orange party did not bring up a single man ! An effort was made by Mr. Cary, who acted as counsel for the Tories, to induce the Registering Barrister to close the session, but he peremptorily refused. The Liberals are still increasing their majority. THE POLITICAL MARTYS.—It appears that an at tempt has been made to prohibit the erection of the mo nument to Muir and others, on the site selected within the Calton-hill Burying-ground. On an application to the Lord Ordinary, in the Bill Chamber, fur an inter dict, we understand the judge (Lord Murray) refused to grant the interdict hoc statu, reserving to the parties to try the matter in the Court of Session, in a deliberate form. Independently of the question of right, we con ceive this interference an ill-advised step. Half a cen tury has elapsed since the condemnation of these men ; nearly all who took a part in the struggles of those days have passed away ; the animosities have been buried ; and we live in a new era, when one ought to look back on that stormy period with a calm historical interest. This monument is to be raised by those who sympathise in the hard fate of those virtuous sufferers, the sub scribers including the late Duke of Bedford, the late Lord Holland, and Sir James Gibson Craig. To treat this tribute as if it was some moral pollution, calculated to shock the sensibilities of one class of our citizens, and even disturb the mouldering remains of those who lie around, iA not only extravagant, but can be regarded as nothing else than a piece of arrant affectation. As to the question of right, we don't believe that any parties can interfere with the erection of this monument, sup posing the title to the site to be effectual.—Caledonian Mercury. DEATH OE SIR CHARLES WATSON.—We have to record the death of the above venerable Baronet, who died on Monday last at Wratting Park, Cambridgeshire, at the advanced age of 93 years, having been born in 1751. He was eldest son of Admiral Charles Watson, the gallant naval officer, who so ably distinguished him self in the action of the 3d of May, 1747, and who sub sequently held the naval command of the East Indian station. In consideration of the great services ho had rendered to his country, George 11. conferred a baronetcy on him, but before the patent of the creation was com pleted he died, and that dignity was eventually conferred on his son, the deceased, then in his ninth year. The late Baronet married, in 1789, Miss Juliana Copley, daughter of the late Sir Joshua Copley, by w h om he leaves issue the . present Baronet, Mr. Charles Wager Watson, and six daughters. Sir Charles W. Watson was born in 1800, and married, in 1827, Miss Colleton, eldest daughter of Mr. Charles Garth Colletor, of Haines Hill, Berks. It is a curious circumstance, worthy of rrecord, that the late venerable Baronet et joyed his baronetage under five Sovereigns (having re received the dignity from George IL, in 1760), vi z ., George H., George 111., George IV., William IV., and Victoria. WooDcocKs.—Last year we noticed that two wood cocks' nests were discovered in Melkinthorpe Woods, near Lowther, by Mr. George Harrison, gamekeeper to the Earl of Lonsdale, and that in both instances the eggs Harrison were all hatched. At that tim e b oth Mr, and his brother (his Lordship's principal game keeper) ex pressed their decided opi n i on t h at many of these delicate birds, if unmolested in their favourite retreats after the beginning of Febru ary , would become naturalised and breed in this part of the country.suppor t In of their opinion we h ave now to report that five yo ung birds, strong upon the wing, were sprung a few days ago in the same locality. As these woods are strictly and carefully preserved, and seldom entered during the summer months, probably many more breeds yet remain to be discovered. --,Lancaster Guardian.
