We some time since directed the attention of our readers to the complaints made by the Brazilian Go- vernment and by the Brazilian shipowners of the unjustifiable and disgraceful, not to sa y piratical, conduct of the officers of certain British cruisers , wh o , under the pretence of suppressing the slave trade, were, in fact, annihilating the whole of the coasting trade of the Brazils, by wantonly plundering of their property the subjects of a state in alliance with our own, and the Government of which was, according to the admissi on o f L or d PALMERSTON himself, ener getically exerting itself to honestly carry out by every means in its power the treaties into which it had entered with this country for the suppression of more tthan arrivals an from confi r St. m , alall Helena unhappily confirm, a ndthat the slave trade. The last we had previously heard in relation to the unjusti fiable manner in which, under pretence of suppressing the slave trade, the laws of nations are too often violated, and the private property of persons engaged i n legitimate traffic made valueless by certain British officers, whose zeal outruns their discretion, and who think more of the plaudits of Exeter Hall, and, it may be perchance, of that which BYRON has:declared is especially dear to seamen—prize-money, than of observing the Tights' of the subjects of other states. It appears that the Brazilian vessel Ma gano, bound on a c oas ti ng voyage f rom one por t o f Brazil to another, was fallen in with by her MAJEm's ship Geyser, seized by the British commander on the pretext that she was engaged in the slave trade, and sent to St. Helena for adjudication. After a protracted investigation before a Court which may be presumed to have been anything but favourable to the Brazilian owner, the vessel was acquitted. It might have been imagined, under _ ... . these circumstances, that some compensation would have been awarded to the unfortunate Brazilian for the detention he had undergone, the damage which had been done to his property, and the false imprisonment he had suffered. Such, however, we regret to say, was not the case ; he re ceived neither costs of suit, nor damages for the loss of his voyage, nor for the injury his vessel had sus tained, nor for the anxiety which he had suffered, and when his vessel was restored to him she was completely dismantled, having been entirely stripped, and all but broken up, by her captors in the vain attempt to discover something either in her fittings, her rig, or her build which would enable them to transform an honest . Brazilian coasting vessel into an African slave trader. Under these circum stances the Brazilian captain has addressed the fol lowing letter to the editor of the St. Helena Advocate, and we commend it to the attentive perusal of all those who are not so far gone in the " Black fever " as to have lost not only their common sense, but all feeling of honour, honesty, justice, and fair play. He says— THE SUN, LONDON, ships and vessels engaged in the suppression of the traffic. Recent events have strongly fortified the po sition of those who demand the suppression of the African squadron. A question of considerable interest is now depend ing between the Board of Inland B,evenue and the different railway boards throughout the kingdom— of interest not only to all persons who have made in vestments in railway stock, but far more so to the hard-working operatives, who, cooped up in large towns for the greater portion of their time, are anxious occasionally to get a glimpse of rural scenes, and to breathe pure air, for a few hours during their intervals of toil. From the excursions which the en terprise and liberality of the directors place within their reach they return with renovated health and spirits to their daily labours. They have something to speak of during the week, and a legitimate object for which to lay by such sums as may be set aside from their daily earnings, after providing the neces sary subsistence for their families. In this respect not all the temperance societies ever formed under, the auspices of Father DlATunw have exercised so salutary an influence in keeping working men from the public-houses, and preventing them from applying their surplus cash, be it much or little, in sottish carousing, as the cheap excursion trains to different places of public resort and interest, which have lately been rendered accessible to all classes. The enjoyment, too, is not entirely selfish. The man who has expended a few shillings in a trip to Dover, or Brighton, or the Isl© of Wight, to Hamp ton Court or Windsor, will not rest until he is enabled to bring with him his wife or sweetheart; and if the former, the baby is probably made the companion of their trip. Every nerve will be strained to accom plish the desired object. Extra work will readily be undertaken, every privation cheerfully submitted to, if at the end of his probation he can act as the cicerone, pointing out the miracles of nature or art, which he has himself beheld for the first time a few weeks previously. How will lie enjoy the wonder excited by the first view of the sea. How will he rejoice in explaining all about " Shakespere's Cliff," or " the Pavilion," or " Portsmouth," or the Isle of Wight, or Stonehenge. Possibly the great Park at Windsor—the tamer and more cultivated beauties of Virginia Water or Hampton Court, or the artistic glories in the magnificent galleries may attract his attention, but in any of these cases, whatever may be the subject of his prelection, he will feel al most greater pleasure in detailing and explaining the various attractions, than his attentive and admiring audience will have in receiving the coveted in- ";I:14 P ' ' 1 ; , - 40 ' V 1 ' r . 1 4 .

" My vessel, the Megan° was seized by her Majesty's ship Geyser, on the Brazilian coast, on suspicion of being a slaver ; she was bound on a legal voyage from one port of Brazil to another—with a lawful cargo of Brazilian merchandise, duly cleared at the Custom house. The manifest of this cargo was on board, and as I proved in my first letter there was no one portion of her fittings or cargo which which was not common to vessels of her class and size. However, at the port of destination, with every prospect of a profitable voyage, we fell in unfortunately with the Geyser—and my vessel was seized under the pretext of being engaged in the slave trade, and sent to this island for adjudication. " After a protracted investigation, 'and a long pas sage to this island, the vessel was acquitted, but though thus cleared of even the false imputa tion, it was strangely decreed that I should receive neither costs of suit nor damages for the loss of my voyage, the injury to the vessel, or the anxiety under which I have for so long a period been left to suffer. On resuming possession of the vessel, I found her com pletely dismantled—stripped to a gauntline—a quantity of her standing and running rigging cut to pieces, and entirely useless—the sails and a portion of the cargo da maged and spoiled, as well as the vessel herself seriously injured for want of proper care while in the hands of the English; and I am now reduced to the necessity of sel ling the cargo, in order, so far as it will go, to remedy these evils, and to refit the vessel, for I cannot find any one willing to advance the large sum necessary for the purpose. " The English are a great people—they boast that their nation is just—but is this not injustice of the most cruel character, and will they allow me to suffer under it? I hope not, and will make the trial—but I am very anxious to show to all right-thinking Englishmen what evils and wrongs are committed in their name when they interfere with the affairs of other nations. " Before my vessel was seized she was in perfect order, and I was proud of her. Look at her now—a mere wreck lying in these roads, exposed to a tropical sun, wind, and rain, without any precaution or care for her safety, Her cargo was known to be of a perishable na ture, and why was it not landed and sold while good, for the benefit of whom it might concern? " The question recurs—lf I was wrongly seized and accused, why were not damages and expenses also awarded to me for the pecuniary loss and anxiety of mind I have had to endure? It would have been so in my own or any other honourable country; and are the innocent to suffer under English laws alone? After the decree for the restoration of my vessel had passed, I was obliged to pay for the decree itself before I could obtain possession —and all this simply because I was found guilty of looking like a slaver, not that I was one in reality. " I am told that one of the chief causes of this strange judgment beingpassed upon me was, that water suckers, as they are termed, were found on board. This I ad mitted on the trial myself, but I never for a moment imagined that it could affect the case, for these water suckers are used on board Brazilian and Portuguese vessels just as ' dippers' are on board of English ones, and it is ridiculous to suppose that a slaver would have such things, which could be of no service to it, as if Negroes on board were allowed to use them, there would be no check on the quantity of water which each consumed, and it would soon run short. These water suckers are never used for other than steerage passen gers in our vessels; and to assign any other purpose to them is as ridiculous as the assertion often made and sworn to here, that clappers are used for ca lli ng t h e Negroes to meals. " I stand in this island, Mr. Editor, a stranger, and I feel that all will ssy—a deeply ill-used one in a foreign land. I have no friends here, but shall of course, when for wrong havingo ig (Signed) e u I E : r ai i i v a o h i p n eo m pl y e own country, appeal through proper channels for the redress to which I am entitled from the object that ray vain boast, they' at lend an ear.

It is said that the PRESIDENT, feeling alarmed at the consequences likely to ensue from the almost in sane lengths to which M. LEON FAUCHER is carrying the system of repression, has determined, in order to get rid of that most dangerous Minister, to break up the Cabinet and to form a new one, of which MM. ABEATUCT, ODILON BARROT, and DE FALLOUX, will be members, and which will propose to the Assembly the repeal of the Electoral Law of the 31st May. M. DE LAROCIINSAQUELEIN has just addressed a long letter to the Gazette de France, in the course of which he states that it is his intention at the 'meeting of the Legislative Assembly to bring forward the following proposition : " The Legislative Assembly decides that the Constitu tion ought to be revised in totalitylll of the Constitution). " In consequence a Constituent Assembly, nominated by the electors inscribed on electoral lists, to be imme diately drawn up, in virtue of the law of March 15, 1849, shall assemble on the 28th of May next (Arts. 1, 24, and 25 of the Constitution). " The electoral domicile of each Frenchman shall be on the premises of his real one. It shall be decided by the conditions stated in chap. 3 of book 1 of the Civil Code, and shall be made public according to the forms therein declared (Art. 27 of the Constitution). " The elections for the Constituent Assembly shall take place on the fourth Sunday of the month of April, 1852 (Art. 31 of the Constitution). " The election of the President of the Republic shall take place on the second Sunday of May, 1852 (Arts. 46 and 116 of the Constitution)." The Rivolution announces that a committee has been formed to manage the funds, &c., of a subscrip tion of five centimes each for a medal to be presented " to the workman of Marseilles who swam off to the Mississippi to shake hands with KOSSUTH." The committee consists of M. DEMOSTHENE OLLIVIER, president : M. COTPENS, secretary, and the chief editors of the Avenement du Peuple, National, Presse, Siticle, Republique, Semaine, Populaire, Feuille du Peuple, Feuille du Village, Bien-Etre Universel, Re volution, as members. The number of subscribers whose names are published is 863. General CASTELLANE has prohibited, in the sth and 6th military divisions, the sale of five democratic almanacs—the Almanach du Travail, by Agricol Per cliguier Leneveu, and V. Schoelcher ; the Almanach du Village, by Joigneaux, Mathieu (de la Drome), and Perdiguier ; the Almanach, Populaire de la France, by P. Bouvet, P. Duprat, &c.; the Alma nach des Opprimes, by Mayen ; and the Republique du Peuple, authors unknown. The Presse says —" A letter of. M. SARTIN, Representative of the People for the Department of the Allier, addressed to the PRESIDENT of the Legislative Assembly, sets forth that, being at dinner in the house of M. DußoussET, at Mont lucon (Allier), two non-commissioned officers of the gendarmerie presented themselves, and declared to the guests, fifteen in number, that the dinner and the number constituted a political meeting, in violation of the decree of the Prefect. They accordingly for bade any one to quit the room. The guests pro tested. M. SARTIN, although personally known to the gendarmes, produced his medal, and showed it to them. Ile was told that inviolability was without effect during the prorogation of the Assembly. A conflict ensued, and a lady received a stab from a sword, which had been destined for M. SAUTIN. Such a grave event requires the most prompt and the most striking satisfaction." The Bourse was agitated, and: public securities again declined.

Is it then desirable that these excursion trains should be prohibited—that a stern mandate should be issued, commanding the cessation of all such traffic ? We believe that there can be no seoond opinion on the point, that Ministers would for once command unanimous votes in both branches of the Legislature, and that our most gracious and well-beloved SOVEREIGN, who is at this moment conferring the most perfect gratifi cation on millions of her loyal and devoted subjects, while visiting the commercial and manufacturing capitals of her dominions, would desire to extend to the utmost the facilities for such innocent amuse ments, so that they may be made available by the very humblest of her people. Under such circumstances it would seem that but little argument was required in favour of these speculations. Unfortunately, how ever, the Board of Inland Revenue appear to have arrived at a different conclusion, and to think that it is their duty to drive men into the beer and spirit shops, that the excise on malt and gin might be in creased to the highest degree. For that purpose, too, they are resorting to a degree of petty quibbling and hairsplitting that would disgrace a hackneyed Old Bailey practitioner. They endeavour to pervert the meaning of the Act of Parliament, and by an over strict interpretation of the letter, to completely set aside the spirit of the law. If, unfortunately, they should succeed—if they can induce any of the judges of the land to give a decision in their favour, it would not in any degree increase the public revenue. The only possible result would be to annihilate the entire system of cheap trains, to abolish the pleasure traffic for all except wealthy travellers. If the tax is to be enforced, it must, according to the recognised fiscal principle, eventally fall upon the consumer. If a person can be carried 80 miles, to Dover or Southampton, for 3s. 6d., without any tax—if it is . remunerative, and barely remunerative to the companies to take them at that price, without restriction of any kind or description, the addition of ls. Bd., as Government tax on passengers, would necessarily increase the price to 4s. Bd., but as this addition would prevent three-fourths of the pleasure-seekers from taking tickets, and send the spare cash to the public-houses, or far more objectionable quarters, the companies could not afford to take passengers at the same almost ludicrously cheap rate. The result, then, would be that the system should be completely abolished, and for that the working men may thank the Board of Inland Revenue. GOD knows it has no superabundant popularity at this mo ment, and need not seek to incur additional odium. SIDNBY SMITH has, however, assigned sa tisfactory reasons why we are never to look for anything just or honourable from an associated body. Each member might in his individual capacity be ashamed to do anything disgraceful, but as in his corporate character he is restrained by no moral or physical check, he is but too frequently guilty of the most indefensible and outrageous acts. We are quite satisfied that it is only necessary that the nature of the existing dispute should be fully known to excite a popular feeling that must be decisive on the subject. The Whigs are made of squeezable materials, and must yield on such a point. SPAIN. Madrid journals of the 3d and 4th have arrived. The Ordre notices the fact of the name of Lord HowDEN appearing among the list of the subscribers for the wounded of Cuba, as follows : "Wo entirely adopt the patriotic id.a suggested by the _Herald° to open a subscription in favour of the wounded in the island of Cuba, in consequence of the last piratical attempt of Lopez. Tho noble represen tative of England st this Court has again show, by putting his name at the head of the list of subscribers, that his liberal donation of 5,000 reals is a proof of his high opinion of our valiant troops, who now, as when the Noble Lord combatted by their side, as a faithful ally, know well how to maintain the honour of the Spanish army when the independence mid inte grity of our territory is cowardly and basely attacked. We then pray the noble Ambassador of the United Kingdom to receive our most cordial thanks, in the name of Spaniards of all parties, without any distinction whatever ; most particularly is the name of our wounded soldiers of the army of Cuba."

" The war has been brought to a termination, and the blessings of peace are already seasonably felt in every part of the kingdom. 44 My attention and that of my Government has of late been chiefly directed to the limitation and mainte nance of the frontiers of the kingdom, a question which is intimately connected with the question of succession to the throne. I have to congratulate myself on the sympathy and good-will I have met with from Foreign Powers, and am flattered with the relations of sincere friendship which have been re-established with them.

Coffee has been taken to a moderate ex tent. Bine has improved. Cotton rules heavy, and not much has been done in Tea or Tallow.
