STATEMENT OF TIIE CASE AND MERITS OF THE ABOVE LINE OF RAILWAY, When the Direct Northern Railway WaB first announced to the public its promoters pledged themselves to the principle of Ruining a railway between Londuu ;ind York tei direct as the nature of the country would admit. The announcement of this principle was most favourably received, and assurances of support were given to the Committee by numerous Pasties possessing influence on the line, and others practically ac quainted with the results of railway cot nsonni cation, who were desirous of this great means of public convenience and welfare, in this instance, rightly applied. The direct principle claimed also the sup port of all that portion of the population of the United Kingdom north of York, whose course of personal communication or of correspon dence lay through that city, and the Committee had great satisfaction in Sliding this claim warmly responded to. Sine:, that period the Committee have been actively engaged in perfecting the numerous preliminary details essential for making good their position as applicants for legislative sanction to their motesurc. Until these were completed, and until the scope of the various other schemes which have been recently proposed lbr esta blishing a communication by railway between the metropolis and tha counties of Lincoln and York could be precisely ascertained by the deposit of the plans, the Committee felt that they could not usefully call the attention of the public to the character of their undertaking. But now that the Committee have complied with all the requirements incumbent on them, and that they are in every resp,ct prepared to prosecute their application to Parliament at the commencement of the erteuhtg .t.s.e. the competmg schemes have been Cully developed in all their details, they conceive that the time has arrived when it is their duty to bring the particular merits of their proposal more prominently be fore the public, and to challenge a comparison between it and the others which are in the field. The principle above stated, of taking the most direct line to York that the nature of the country admits of, has been steadily kept In view, and the following results have been obtained : The actual distance from London to York by the proposed line la only 176 i miles, to Stamfurd 814, to Lincoln 1:11i, to Gains_ borough 134, to Selby 165, and to Hull, by the proposed Gains. borough and New Holland line, 166. The main trunk at York is carried onward by a bridge over the York and North Midland Rail. way, and joii.s the Great North of England line at a point about a mile and a half beyond the city of York, for the purpose of avoid ing the detention that now occurs to onward passengers, whether proceeding north or south. This mode of crossing the York and North Midland line has been adopted in conformity with the following recommendation con tainvd in the fourth report of the Railway Commissioners in 1841 (p. 43) :—" We consider it improper that the traffic of any new line should open upon the York and North Midland Railway, with which so many lines are already in connexion as to render delay un. avoidable, and collision not improbable. In consequence of the numerous trains of luggage and passengers using this line nearly two hours are sometimes occupied in passing over a little more than thirty miles ftom York." Notwithstanding the opinion thus de cidedly expressed, the proposed competing line of the London and York comes upon the York and North Midland Railway in the very manner objected to by the Railway Commissioners as likely to lead to danger and certain to cause delay. The Direct Northern line supplies the benefit of railway inter course to a very large district of country intermediate between the midland counties and the sea, which has hitherto been left unpro vided in that respect; and takes its course through nearly the centre of that district at a distance varying from eighteen to forty miles from the lines proceeding north from Rugby. It cannot, therefore, be held to interfere needlessly with the interests of these lines, which, although they have conferred great benefits on the wealthy and populous districts they connect, were not originally intended to be carried to York, and cannot consequently be re garded as furnishing such a communication as in the due applica tion of railway power the public have a right to expect. The subject should be considered also in relation to cross lines or branches which may sew or may hereafter be proposed to tra. verse the same country as the Direct Northern, and to become con. nected with it, as the progress of industry and of population may require, and on this point the Committee believe that the best main trunk line having been rightly chosen on the principle of direct communication, that principle will be found to afford every facility for the advantageous working and connexion of such lateral lines or branches as the amount of local tragic may hereafter demand. This important subject—viz., the relations of probable future branches, has received the serious consideration of the Committee, and they are prepared to promote and to co-operate in the forma. lion of lateral lines, se as to arrange them with the main line to the best advantage, and to render the communication, both direct and lateral, as perfect as possible. But they do not propose to sacrifice to the local convenience of a town of a few thousand inhabitants (which may by other means be provided for), the interests, both as regards time and cost, of the large masses of population that lie at a nd beyond the termini of the line. On this ground the Provisional Committee confidently rely on receiving from the northern counties 6f England, and from tl e whole of Scotland, cordial co-operation and support. The gradients are of a very favourable description, as the section demonstrates, and they are obtained at a moderate expense. The tunnels will be four in number, the longest being 1,450 yards in length, and the aggregate length of the whole four less than one mile and two-thirds. No engineering works of great magnitude or difficulty occur, ornamental property is avoided, and the drainage .t is.. e—• Iwc- iamtc. r .wl with. Tl.cs guw,o will tw7 the same as that of existing railways north of London, and the line being for its whole length under one management, a higher average and more equal rate of speed may be attained and ten. dered compatible with safety, than can exist on lines where the frequent change of Companies renders vexatious delay unavoidable, superintendence difficult, and responsibility incomplete. Wher. ever the Direct Northern may be connected with other lines, every arrangement that experience has pointed out, or that a careful study of the question can suggest, will be adopted to ensure the safety and convenience of the public. It is without doubt a most important consideration in regard to safety as well as speed that the control and arrangement of the traffic of a line of great magnitude should be subjected to one go. verning body, as has been most forcibly urged in a communication made to the Railway Commissioners by the Directors of the London and Birmingham Railway Company. (See Fourth Report of Rail way Commissioners, 1841. Appendix, page 10.) In regard to the cost of working, it needs no argument to prove that, where gradients are the same, the shortest line through a given country will be the cheapest worked, and that if the capital required for its construction be the same per mile, the shortest line will be the cheapest to the public. The Committee believe that a general conviction now prevails that, for the purpose of communication between the metropolis and the north, a new and independent line of railway is required between London and York, and they assume that such a work will certainly receive the sanction of Parliament. It can be proved that a better engineering line may be made to York 421 miles shorter than that which at present exists; that by thus shortening the distance, and avoiding the delays that necessarily attend the transference of traffic from one line to another (the present line belonging to four Companies), the time consumed in the journey to York may be reduced from nine hours and upwards to less than six hours, without any increase of speed, and likewise that the fares and freight of goods may be considerably lowered. These facts appear to the Committee to be conclusive in favour of their undertaking, and they look to public opinion to confirm and support their views, In comparing the proposed Direct Northern line with other schemes, the following most important fact should be kept in view, via. :—Every additional mile of railway distance is equivalent to a tax amounting to the fare charged per mile for every passenger and ton of goods conveyed, that is to say, approxim•,ting on an average to 2(1. per mile eaeh way, besides the time lost in the transit. fact, that the London and Birmingham and Grand Junction Rail way Companies have consented (after several years of opposition) to join in the formation of a new line from Stafford to Rugby, 48 , miles 77 chains in length, at an estimated cost of about a million, for the sole purpose of effecting a saving of 9 miles 39 chains be tween London and Staffoi d distance of 141 miles 15 chains), and this, too, although the effect of the alteration is to carry all the through traffic past and not through the important town of Bir. mingharn, which is thus placed, as it were, on a branch with refe rence to the main line of communication. It is also remarkable that the line in that direction originally contemplated and submited to Parliament was laid down so as to save the distance now to be curtailed at so great a cost, but local interests prevailed at the time over the direct principle, and carried the line round by Birming ham. Successive alterations, at great cost, it is well known, have also been made, or are about to be made, in several other principal lines, via„ in the original Birmingham and Liverpool, the Bir mingham and Manchester, the Manchester and Leeds, the South. Eastern, and others; all of which alterations must be considered as adoptions of, or approximations to, the direct principle. The Committee are confident that neither the Legislature nor the Board of Trade will now sanction a line from London to York on merely local grounds, but will regard the question as one of general national importance. For it is evident that all persons to the south of the London terminus, or the north of the York ter. minus, who desire to travel or transmit goods in either direction, have a clear interest in the formation of the shortest through line, and (for example), while it may be for the convenience of persons residing at Peterborough, when they wish to travel or send goods to London, that the main trunk should be brought round by that town, it is equally clear that it is not for their convenience that it shou d benu round by Grauth am ..At.k., war ,,, n , w h en they' ...in to travel or send goods to Yak, any more man it is for the convenience of persona residing at Grantham, Newark. and Doncaster, to be carried round by Peterborough, or any other of the other towns, when they wish to travel or send goods to London. In short, nothing but the direct principle (facilities for lateral branches being always provided) resolves the question of general aggregate convenience. o 4 F, 4 -2 g . t fl - -4 :: 2 5 1 6 >, .0 .. _`. ~, lIALSE ON MEDICAL GALVAN 1 ''', M. , "Air HALSE, late f this county,but now te s.ea t yi • - ° lyt.bi_.. rompton, London, has lately published . a pamphlet have really aste ni .‘ ; l, 41.

".....Pteter Flying Post. e It has been stated that the Direct Northern line does not accom. modate the same amount of local population as the proposed London and York ; but, by reference to the plans of both Companies, it will be seen that th:s is not the fact and that all the towns of im portance on the route (Doncss'er not excepted) are brought nearer to the metropolis and to York, and to places Intermediate, by means of the Direct Northern, than by the London and York, with the single exception of Peterborough, to communicate with which the Direct Northern avails itself of the Northampton and Peterborough branch of the London and Birmingham Rail. way, now nearly completed, which it crosses at the distance of tour miles and a half from Peterborough, making the total distance from London to Peterborough only about a mile greater than by the London and York—a result obtained by the latter Company at a considerable elongation of their wain line, detrimental to the locality itself in its traffic northward, and generally to the cha. ratter of the line. The Committee forbear to introduce into this statement other topics which they might urge (such as th• priority on their part in the proposal of a direct line from London to York, which priority has been clearly established), as these might, perhaps, divert atten tion from the strength of their main position, upon which they are content that their claim to legislative preference and to public sup port shall rest, viz., that, compared with all other proposed under takings for the same object, theirs presents a great preponderance of national advantage, while, at the same time, it is the most secure as a profitable investment of capital. In conclusion, and in brief recapitulation of the more promi nent grounds on which the Committee rely for the sanction of the Legislature to their undertaking as a national line, they beg to sub mit the following propositions, and they court the most searching inquiry into their truth and value:— I. That an independent direct line between London and York is required by the public, and will command a sufficient traffic to yield an ample return. 2. That the interests of a large proportion of the population of England, and of the whole of Scotland, require that the most di rect line should be adopted. 3. That the Direct Northern not only satisfied these conditions by being the shortest line between London and York, but it is preferable by the character of its gradients, and its economical con struction. t. That the line being the shortest and cheapest possible, pas. sengers and goods may be carried by it at a lower rate of claarge than by any other. 5. That the primary object of shortening the distance is attained by the Direct Northern, with due regard to intermediate and local interests, and without needlessly interfering with the traffic of existing lines. 6. That as a question of investment of capital, it is essential that the most direct line should be taken to prevent future com petition, or expensive alterations for the protection or improvement of the original line, and that consequently none but direct lines can constitute a permanent property.

THE FRENCH IN OTAHEITE. We yesterday published a seriei of dispatches com municated by the French Government to the Chamber of Peers, on the subject of the war with Morocco. We continue to-day the publication of the documents supplied to the Chamber, and will commence by some relating to Otaheite : No. 1. On the 30th of July M. Guizot addressed the six following dispatches to M. Jarnac, our Chargé d'Af faires in London. NO. 2.—CAPTAIN DRUAT TO ADMIRAL DE MACKAU. Papeiti, Feb. 27, 1844. Monsieur le Ministre,—Since the sailing of the frigate Dublin, the ex-Queen Pomare, no longer trusting to an intervention on the part of England in her favour, had manifested dispositions which led me to expect that she would not long delay to come back to us ; but, as I had the honour to apprise you by my report of the 23d of January, the chief Fati informed me that Pomare had written a letter she was about to address to me. but that she had been deterred from so doing by Mr. Pritchard, who, it is said, threatened to send away the Basilisk. Although I am without positive proof of this fact, I nevertheless feel convinced of its correctness. Emissaries wore sent into the districts, and I soon learned, that several inferior chiefs, being jealous of ftb.lidoninrr their lin , • • the m wrini, tney im6 , 3meu; tutu **ere withdrawing into the isthmus of Tairabou, where, under the directions of the chiefs Taviri, Pitomai, Farchon, and Titrai, a hostile party was foriniug. I deemed it advisable to take prompt and strong measures to repress the disturbances which have broken out. THE PROPRIETORS of the ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS having at great expense engraved a Large print of London and the Thames, accompanied by a New History of the Metropolis, are surprised to see advertised by sonic dishonourable persons an INFERIOR and unfairly imitative production under the same name They, therefore, beg to Caution their Subscribers and the Public against the substitution of the above Imitation for their Print announced for publication twelve months ago! 198, Strand, Jan. 10, 184.5. The Phocion immediately sailed, and came to anchor in the bay of Papeau, whence she could watch the move ments of the insurgents. MM. Molssin and Marian, captains on the staff, whom I directed to go on board that ship, in order to survey the land and make maps, have taken measures for stopping the emigration. They occupy bep:nd the isthmus a position which enables them to obtain this end, and by means of small works erected on shore they command the whole country, in conformity with my instructions. The Indians who come to return to their homes are allowed to pass freely ; but the traffic in the interior, towards Tairabou, has been formally interdicted. These gentlemen have surveyed the canals, and have found a new pass, which will permit vessels to anchor near the isthmus. They find this to be an admirable position as a military one and in respect to vegetation. I sail this very day in the corvette Embuscade with 150 soldiers for the isthmus. The companies of the Embuscade and the.Phocion will make up our force to 300 men. I shall myself see the country, and see as to what I have to do. Everything tends to lead me to expect that the sight of such a force will suffice to intimidate the Indians and make them return to their homes. Be that as it may, I shall take up a military position to cut off the communication between Tairabou and the interior. The presence of some troops is indispensable t.,1 give confidence to our partisans, and to intimidate the rioters. I should have already acted had I not given the chiefs six days to make their submission. This Company offers the advantages of the guarantee of an ample subscribed capital--of permission to retain one-third of the premium In their own hands (the poi tan so retained, with interest upon it, being deducted from the policy when it become a claim),—of ascend ing, de,cending, and other scales of premiums,—aud of participation in the profits at the end of every five years. TO EMIGRANTS, TO THE AUSTRALASIAN COLONIES, assured for the whole of life, this Company offer the permission to proceed to, and reside in, any of those colonies without extra pre mium, and to pay their premiums there. For residence in New Zealand, a moderate extra premium is charged. In Sydney, a Board of Directors, and Agents in all the principal settlements—Bankers in the colony. The Bank of Australasia (in. corparated by Royal Charter, I 835), No. 2, Moergate-street, London. Although the term fixed has expired to-day I have allowed Captain Henry, who has great influence over the Indians, to attempt to bring them back. Ho left yesterday, and will have had 24 hours start of me. I have taken every precaution here, where I leave the Uranie and the Meurthe, and more than 200 troops. BRUAT. It is thus clear, that u p on the amou nt of traffic which on the most moderate estimate will pas s over the line, an impost on th e public of many thousands per annum (independently of the sacri. Tice of time to passengers, and of delay in the transmission of mails) would be perpetuated by any needless elongation of the line. Another consideration will present itself to parties who are inte rested in existing railways, and shonld be kept in view by those disposed to invest their property in new ones, viz., that lines which are circuitous, and therefore capable of improvement, and liable to he interfered with by other parties, must become depreciated in value whenever public accommodation may demand that improve ment, and that consequently lines on the direct principle alone can be regarded as a permanent property. A striking illustration of the progress which the direct prin ciple is making, and of the importance of saving a few miles on the main line of a railway, is most opportunely atlbrded by the THE 5 . 17 N is pe.hlisivd EVERY MORNING at FIVE O'CLOCK, in Time for the EARLY TRAINS" and TOWN DELIVERY; a SECOND EDITION (Evening Sun) is Published in Time for the AFTERNOON TRAIN•Q and a THIRD EDITION at SEVEN O'CLOCK, for POST, containing PARLIAMENTARY and all other NEWS in LONDON up to that Baur.

Papeiti, March 3, 1844. NO. 7.—x. BRUAT TO ADMIRAL DE MACKAU. Papeiti, March 21, 1844. Monsieur le Ministre,—The copies of the dispatches addressed to me by the Commandant d'Aubigny during my stay at Taravau will make you acquainted with the necessity under which he found himself of putting Pa peiti in a state of siege, and of arresting Mr. Pritchard, English ex- Consul. From the agitation the not approve 12.91i8 ... 1 .1 1,e leirSC W ilfe " IgtrW .. o . f this arrest. However, events were of so serious a nature, that I could not undo what had been done without discouraging our own party and strengthening the rebels. Immediately on my arrival I had Mr. Pritchard trans ferred from the blcckhouse on board the Meurthe, order ing the Commander, Guillevin, to receive him at his table. Considering that Mr. Pritchard was no longer anything but a private English resident, whose influence over the ex-Queen Pomare and the revolted party was dangerous to the tranquillity of the island, I have written to the Captain of the Cormorant, for the purpose of in ducing him to quit Papeiti, to which he had no mission, and to take with him Mr:Pritchard, whom I promised to place at his disposal as soon as the ship should leave the port. . _ The sensation created in this country by the events in Otaheite is thus described by M. de Jarnac, the French Chargé d'Affaires : NO. 8.-THE COUNT DE JARNAC TO N. GUIZOT. London, Aug. 4, 1844. Monsieur le Ministre,—The last intelligence from Ota heite has produced in England the greatest and most general sensation. Since my arrival in Landon I have never known an event in foreign politics to cause such an impression. The religious party, so powerful in itself, so influential by its affinity with the highest sentiments, as with the blindest prejudices of this country, has first been roused. Meetings of saints have been convened all over England, violent and bitter speeches have been delivered, copies and engravings have been circulated containing M. d'Au bigny's proclamation of the 3d of March, and represent ing the various circumstances of Mr. Pritchard's arrest and imp; isonment ; in short, nothing has been neglected to obtain the popular sympathy, and to raise him to the rank of the martyrs to the evangelical faith. The political press has not on its side been behindhand; founding itself on the most exaggerated versions of facts and circumstances, those journals who usually support the policy of the Ministers, as well as those who oppose it, have been of one mind, to constitute into a national affront the conduct of our officers. Without being will ing to recognise the real situation of Mr. Pritchard, in public as well as in private society, it is said, that an English Consul, the Queen's agent not only at Otaheite, bat at another set of islands (the Friendly Islands), was, during the full exercise of his functions, arrested, impri soned in a dungeon for several days, attended with such measures of severity- that his health has seriously suf fered, and finally driven away without any intelligible accusation having been brought against him. It is as serted that all the language and conduct of our agents on this occasion bears the stamp of such animosity, of such evident hostility against England, that it is impos sible for this country not to feel them deeply, and not to foresee the extreme consequences of them. I have to add, Monsieur le Ministre, that these sentiments do not seem to me to be caused by our protectorate at Otaheite or by the subsequent occupation of the island, but by the events which the late intelligence has brought under public discussion. I every day find Lord Aberdeen more preoccupied with this new difficulty, and though he holds to continuing as long as possible a confidential and friendly character in all our communications, he dues not the less seem to consider that reparation is im periously due to Gseat Britain. Always desirous of leaving to your Excellency the initiative of any propo sition, he has not in any of our interviews expressly stated any special measure, but he positively told ea-, that he should not hesitate on his part to disavow and blame highly any English agent who had held the offi cial language and conduct attributed here to one of our officers ; and, on the other hand, the immediate and direct sending back of Mr. Pritchard to Otaheite was formally proposed and discussed in Council. I do not discontinue, M. le Ministre, to warn Lord Aberdeen, and all others with whom I think I may con verse on these events, against the deplorable confidence thus granted to the first accounts given by the press and interested parties. Ido not cease to call to mind that it was with a view of meeting similar accidents and trials to our relations, that a policy of mutual confidence has been proclaimed by both Governments. But I must not the less call the attention of your Excellency to thts state of the public mind, and to request of you all such in formation as may enable me to correct a judgment evi dently so erroneous. For the moment, it is of import ance to get the acts imputed to Mr. Pritchard, and thus give some precision to accusations which are as yet pro duced in the shape of vague and trivial assertions. The affairs of Morocco, and the arrival in London of M. de Nesselrode, had created some doubt as to the maintenance of the intimate relations of the two Cabi nets. I hare grounds for fearing that without extreme prudence on both sides, the policy proclaimed by the two Crowns, not yet six months since, may be seriously threatened. M. Guizot replies in the following terms : NO. 9.--31. GUIZOT TO THE COUNT DE TARNAC. Paris, August 8, 1844. Monsieur le Comte,—l have received the dispatch which you did me the honuur to write me the 4th of this month, and in which you give me an account of the general effect produced in England by the news from Otaheite, and point out all the importance of this inci dent. The more the public mind appears worked upon by passionate feelings the more time it is necessary to leave it to get calm. We shall, consequently, abstain at this moment from all official communication and discus sion upon the subject. But this reserve on your part must not be an inactive one, and I beg you to do every thing that may lie in your power at the Foreign-office, as well as everywhere else, to rectify errors in facts, and all those false ideas which may lead the public opinion more and more astray, and even lead the British Go vernment to such resolutions and manifestations as may render the solution of this delicate question still more difficult. Unless I deceive myself, the irritation which now manifests itself in England arises more especially from the belief that Mr. Pritchard, at the time he was arrested and sent oa board,. was invested with the post of Consul to her Britannic Majesty. Now, Mr. Pritchard, in a letter of the 7th of November, 1843, addressed to Admiral Dupetit Thouars, formally declared that he withdrew his flag, and ceased his consular func tions ; and, in fact, ho had completely ceased them. It was consequently ouly as a simple private man, as a fo reigner,that he resided at Otaheito.Now, the right of send ing out of a colonial establishment, whatever be its form, any foreigner, whose presence may trouble the public order and compromise the safety of the establishment, is not only a right universally recognised and practised, but one which results to us there from our very treaty of the 9th of September, 1842, which says, that " the direc tion of all affairs with foreign Governments, as well as in all that concerns the residents, is placed at Otaheito in the hands of the French Government, and the persons nominated by it." M. Bruat, the Governor, had consequently the incon testable right to send Mr. Pritchard out of Otaheite, and, to judge by the facts as known to us up to the present time, there is every reason to believe, that for the safety of the French establishment in that island, as well as for that of the French troops ordered to defend it, it had be come highly necessary to use ;that right, in sending out of Otaheite the moral chief and principal instigator of the insurrectionary movements which had broken out upon several parts, and threatened Papeiti itself. As to the circumstances which have accompanied the sending away of Pritchard, I cannot pretend tha t the y can all and entirely be justified, and that there r ar so are not connected with them certain:proceedings and e which are contrary to all equity, bun a nity,d propriety. But I ought not, and do not desire,an m p yepi i n e . opinion folly express scrupulously oi ay tend to col- l f e u c ll t y ed u apnodn e t h x i a s mi n examine p oi, u l In the h i I e l d s e h t a a l i s h t a h v a e t en lighten me upon this matter. The Count de Jarnac thus proceeds to explain the feeling in the country on this subject :—• NO. 10. THE COUNT DE TARMAC TO M. GUIZOT. London, Aug. 10, 1844. Monsieur le Ministre,— I have seen Lord Aberdeen and Sir R. Peel several times during the last few days; both of them have spoken in the most formal terms o f the importance they attach to the late events in Otaheite. They have both of them pressed me with much eagerness to demand of your Excellency as jt communications iga ,nsd Gonv(e)rradnsemrmetanoyt• calm a e li t mt t h h t e rhe m e. g k q a u n r i o e d w k tl quickly h as t e h intentionssduoi such h e theu 1t i s i effervescence which they have excited in the country. The Chief Secretary of State continues deeply to de plore the events which, contrary to the great desire of the two Governments, have occurred to place Great Britain and France in a contest with each other. But, faithful at the same time to the principle which he laid down in our first interview in the most friendly lan guage, he persists in assuring me that he will trust to the justice and good faith o the King's Government in every proposition for arrangement, persuaded that the 1 simple examination of the facts will f u lly e s t a bl is h th e I just and legitimate nature of the reclamations of Eng. land.

NO. 3.-CAPTAIN BRUAT TO ADMIRAL DE MACRAE. Papeiti, March 13, 1344. Monsieur le Ministre,—Since my report of the 27th of February, of which I forwarded you a duplicate, by way of the Sandwich, I have joined Captain Henry, who had failed in the negotiations he had opened with the unsub missive Indians. Wishing not to divide our forces too much, I have de stroyed the fort which Captain Meesin had erected, and which became useless. Piloted by Captain Henry, the Phaeton towed the Embuscade to the port on the east of the isthmus, and which I have called Port Phaeton, be cause she is the first ship who has anchored there—Fe bruary 29, at four o'clock in the afternoon. I immediately landed the troops, in order to cut down the trees and lay the country open. lat the same time took possession of 49 canoes, which had just been aban doned. The next day, while making the road, I took possession of the house said to be the Queen's, at about 2,000 metres from the shore. Before night our troops were bivouacked, and I had one cannon on the isthmus, the evacuation of which had been produced by our troops without firing a shot. Although various reports had stated the number of the insurgents to be 2,000 men, which I do not believe, and that our soldiers and sailors together did not amount to more than about 200 men, no attack has been made, and whea I left Taravau, the 6th of March, at night, I had established n fortification, with a ditch, from which, I think, the Indians cannot expel us. A blockhouse is constructing there, and as soon as the fort is finished I shall withdraw a part of the troops. Sixty men will be sufficient to guard it, but a vessel must be left in Port Phaeton. I think that this port renders the communica tion complete between the eastern part and the north, and thus becomes the military key of the whole operation we are desirous of attempting, or which may be attempted against us. Notwithstanding the rain which has continued to assail us, and which has in like manner prevailed at Pa peiti, the ardour of our soldiers and sailors has not for an instant abated. I took advantage of my stay for ,oin k ; over the whole of the northern part of Tairabou in my boat, and I ascertained that Captain Henry had rightly advised me. The chiefs of Tautira (the western part of Tairabou) came to me in that district, and in that of Papara. Many Indians have returned to their home 3. Although the intrenchments of the post at Taravau were not finished, it was necessary, in consequence of the importance of the facts communicated to me in the let ters of the commandant, that I should return t Papeiti. The Phaeton, on board of which I was, went to tha eastward. It is in the part nearest to the isthmus that there is the greatest number of rebels; they appeared to me to be less numerous than reported. I think the presence of the steamer will have produced a good effec t. Having arrived on the 7th, I, in fact, found that Pa peiti had the appearance of a besieged town. I imme diately had the French property, which had been put on board the ships, landed. Notwithstanding the smallness of our number, fire is the enemy we have most to fear. I proceeded next to Point Venus ; the English mis sionary, Mr. Orsmond, seconded me well. lie had al ready induced the people to reply by a refusal to the in • surgents' emissaries. There, again, I had to upset the same intrigues—the same tales. The people and the chiefs recognised my authority, and recommended to all those who had fled from Papeiti to return. Many fol lowed their advice. Thus, the number of the insurgents decreases every day, and confidence revives on all sides, and the great chiefs of the country, who all have re mained faithful to us, assure me that with patience they will all return to their homes. Under such circumstances, Mr. Pritchard was cer tainly a dangerous man, swaying the party opposed to us ; had I deemed it proper to release him, this would have produced the worst consequences. Ido not think that a government under circumstances such as a state of siege can tolerate the intrigues of a private resident, who seeks to cloak his manoeuvres under the title of consul of a country to which he has not even attempted to get, although he had the time and means. Mr. Pritchard, who had been placed in a blockhouse, was on my return, and by my order, transferred on board the Meurthe, where he receives food from the captain's table. lle speaks in praise of the attentions shown him. The captain of the Cormorant had no mission to Otaheite ; it was proper I should summon him to leave the Society Islands ; he has seen the propriety of so doing ; he con sents to take on board Mr. Pritchard, but I shall deliver him to him only if he engages not to land Mr. Pritchard on any of the islands of this archipelago. In case he refuses to make this engagement, I shall send Mr. Pritchard to one of the Friendly Islands by the goelette St. Kilda, which late events have compelled me to purchase. As to myself, Monsieur le Ministre, all my efforts shall tend towards not disturbing the good relations which exist between the two Governments, and which are so necessary for the peace of the world. My situa tion is surrounded by many difficulties, but I trust that in time and with patience I shall bring things to a good end. The seizure of Mr. Pritchard is thus narrated by M. D'Aubigny : NO. 4.—at. D'AUBIONY TO N. lIRUAT. Papeiti, March 4, 1844. Monsieur le Gouverneur,—Yesterday, on leaving mass, I had the honour of writing to you that all was quiet, and I further sent you a messenger, bearing a com munication from Mr. Moerenhout. He must have been with you an hour or two since. After he left matters took a turn, of which I must immediately apprise you. Yesterday morning, at eleven o'clock, I was informed by a note from Mr. Cuillevin, that a sentinel of the camp of the Urania had bent attacked and thrown down in the night. This is the fact :—A sailor was on duty on the mole. At about half-past ten an individual worked himself close up to him, and gave him a blow with his fist on the hand, which brought him to the ground. When falling, the sailor called for help ; the individual caught hold of the musket, which the sailor strove to retain. During this struggle men from the post came to the assistance of their comrade. The individual, on seeing them coming, armed himself with the bayonet, of which he had at last got possession. Closely pursued, he and his pursuers entered his hut nearly at the same time; he was arrested, and is now in my hands, and would have been forthwith tried by a council of war had I had the power. The bayonet has not been found. Struck at this audacious act, convinced that all our strength resides in the effect of moral superiority, which it is important we should not lose among the Indians, and convinced that the best way of bringing matters to an end with them was to take possession of the director and instigator of their agitation, I resolved on having 4- 6r reparation has been yet made by Lord Aberdeen, o will be indicated by Lord Cowley. The Chief Secre tary of State has confined himself, as yet, to the o ea sional mention of the first ides of the return of Mr. Pritchard to Otaheite, in order to refute the accusa tions brought against him, and to expressing his desire to know the opinion of your Excellency upon this priet. In spite of this reserve and moderation on the part of Lord Aberdeen, whose language teems with expressions of kindly feelings tots ards France and frieuiship !er your Excellency, I fancy I can remark that the format disavowal, if vet the retell of our Otaheite agents, or some measure at least equivalent, appears to him fully due to the honour of England. This impression is evi dently that of the country as well as of the press. It is incontestable, at the same time, that the first opi nions of the more enlightened portion of the country, and of the English Government itself, have insensibly been strengthened since the day when I had the honour of first pointing them out to your Excellency. I should be afraid of taking up too much of your time by enter ing more into detail with regard to my lung conversa tions with Lord Axrdeen, but be a‘sured that I have neglected no argument and no effort to contribute to this result. lam already happy to see that in London they no longer insist upon the fact of the official character of Mr. Pritchard at, Otaheite at the time of. his arrest, sad that they no longer contest as a general affair, our right of expul , ion, whieli I insisted upon from the very first as inherent in the Government, and consecrated by the practice of all colonial establishments. Ido not despair, moreover, cf inducing the English Government to ac knowledge that, at the bottom, the whole question lies in the real conduct of Mr. Pritchard. There is no doubt, in fact, as I never cease to repeat here continually, that excepting certain forms and certain ways cf proceeding, about which, until more ample information should l.e obtained, I had refused to enter into any discussion, s:AI about which your Excellency has since expressed to ate your regret and disapprobation, the measures taken against Mr. Pritchard may be fully justified (in their en semble). it' his direct and open complicity with the insur, rection be proved. Your Excellency will thus easily comprehend the value I attach to the earliest information with regard to the facts clearly established aelliEtspline 14,0, wt,;,, g„ .4.st• A 7 • necessary for me to say, that the common-place, or en i dently exaggerated attacks, of our public prints against Mr. Pritchard can be of no value on this point, and would contribute no serious argument in the eyes of the Chief Secretary of State, who persists in regarding him as a victim of the most unjust accusations and of the most ar bitrary measures. I have still to add, that to judge by certain expres• sions of Lord Aberdeen in our last conversalon, I have reason to think that the idea of a pecuniary compensa tion bestowed upon Mr. Pritchard would be received by the English Government, and would essentially contri bute to the making up of the difference. Before knowing what might be your Excellency's opinion relative to such a measure, I have avoided en tering into any conversation upon the point, even to ob tain such information as I might have wished to lay be fore you now; but I think that I do not err in laying before your Excellency, for your consideration, this Lew impression, which was apparently manifested by the Chief Secretary of State. I regret to find that the constant solicitude of Lord Aberdeen as to the consequences of the late events at Otaheite continues to be shared, and with much vivacity, by the public; and it is easy for me to see around me how much the Chief S ecr etary of State is himself pressed upon relative to this question, as well by the Council as the public in general. M. Guizot thus replies : NO. GUIZOT TO TILE COUNT DE JARN.AC. Paris, August 15, 1844. Monsieur,—l have received the dispatch which you did me the honour to write me on the 10th of this month. I comprehend the impatience Lord Aberdeen must experience to receive from us some positive com munication upon the affairs of Otaheite; but, since the two Governments do not agree in their state ments of the facts imputed to sir. Pri!.ohard, it is necessary, above all things, to clear up these facts; it is the only means of tirrivig at seine ar rangement which may be considered equis,abie. on both sides. Ido all I can, consequently, to obtain such in formation, and I will send you all the elements of this species of investigation. In the meanwhile, endeavour to establish the fact that the return of Mr. Pritchard to Otaheite is absolutely inadmissible, in any manner what ever, for his return would indubitably increase the dis orders of which his intrigues were the first cause. As to the idea which you fancied you could perceive i❑ Lird Aberdeen's mind, with regard to an indemnity to be granted to :11r. I'ritchaid for the bad treatment he has received, and the losses it may have occasioned him, keep yourself in a state of reserve, which will leave us our full liberty. You must not be too ready to receive this idea, which must be first duly exa►ained, nor alto gether reject it, since it may eventually be the means of solution of a question which becomes most serious and delicate. Our readers will have some difficulty to reconcile the following dispatch to M. Bruat with the opinions M. Guizot had previously expressed : No. 12.—THE MINISTER OF THE MARINE TO GOVERNOR BRUAT. Paris, August 20, 1844. Monsieur le Gouverneur,—Your reports of the months of January, February, and March, have all reached me at the same moment. They have given me information of the events which have take❑ place at Otaheiti during that period, and the measures which you have been led to adopt for the suppression of the disturbances, and the correspondence interchanged upon the subject with the officers of the English navy. Your conduct, under these important circumstances, has been worthy of the confidence of the King's Go vernment. The measures you have taken with so much activity to repress the disturbances, and the prompti tude with which you went over personally to the scene of insurrection, testify at once your prudence and your energy, and merit my entire approbation. I have read with the greatest attention the reports you have addressed to Captain d'Aubigny, with regard to what had passed at Papeiti during the time ho was temporarily called upon to exercise the superior com mand. I have sought in these documents, and in those which give an account of the circumstances anterior and posterior to the arrest of Mr. Pritchard, for the means of an exact appreciation of the facts which have brought about and accompanied the execution of this measure. You declare that, in the state of agitation into which the country was plunged, the sending away of Mr. Pritchard was necessary ; and I see it also fully from the serious nature of the facts which you point out to me. You add that you were unable, at the same time, to approve either the form or the motives of the arrest or dered by the commander ad interim. I perfectly share in your opinion upon this point. I regret what passed in those circumstances, and I beg of you to let M. d'Au bigny know as much. Under the difficult circumstances in which your absence left him, this officer, in other respects, has shown an activity and a zeal which I should have been glad to have praised without any re striction. The public feeling, when the news of the attack upon Tangiers added to the already prevailing irrita tion excited by the affairs of Otahiete, is well de scribed by the Count de Jarnac in the following dispatch :7 NO. 13.--THE COUNT DE JARNAC TO M. GUIZOT. London, August 22, 1844. Monsieur le Ministre,—The news of the attack on Tangiers and of the departure of the squadron for Mo gadore has produced in Loudon a sensation which is all the more deep, since, according to the previous news, people had counted on a pacific termination of our differences with Morocco. I regret to find once more upon this question and upon our demonstration before Tunis most unjust prejudices existing, mingled with sin cere uneasiness as to the possibility of the duration of the good feeling between the two Courts. I continually hear discussed around me in public the inevitable nature of this war, especially injurious, they affirm, to the great commercial interests of England in Morocco. The most ambitious views, and the most hostile to Great Britain, are openly attributed to France. The example of the fate of Algiers and of the destruction of all the commer cial connections of England with the Regency is con stantly brought forward. It is constantly said, more over, that the peace of the whole world is now at the mercy of every incident of a war, which will place in in evitable conflict the greatest interests of Prance and England. I have reason to fear that the evil impressions of the English public have penetrated only too far into the Council ; and I have every reason to believe, also, that maritime alreadytime magi.s but for the personal confidence inspired by the King's Government, and the public declarations o f your Excel lency,owed itselfhe t ob British o led n strop woud eat have festations. However that may be, I have always sup ported openly, and never ceas ed to maintain a ll i ts l g rests of France, a war which the most flagrant provoest integrity, our right to carry on, according to the inte tions have rendered necessary. I do not find even in the Chief Secretary of State himself any desire to. eon testu ch the a re the legitimate nature of our complaints again s t political engaged andin theseeo m- Morocco, or the moderation of our demands ; but h e reminds me Great how Britain much Y al nt r'n e t res affairs. ;Th especially,e independence of T ang i ers placed as it is at the gates of Gibralt ar , an d necessary for the v e e r r e y i provisioning of that fortr ess , appears to him an indis pensable condition for England. It ought to be added, em rane at the same time, th a t t h e rem b g e of the events of Algiers weighs very heavily upon this hlw o s question, and contributes to shake, every moment, the confidence of the men who find themselves • once more responsible for the consequences which this war may entail upon the interests of their country. "In 1830, also," they say, " the complaints of the French Government were founded upon justice ; the most plausible motives were put forward for a breach with the Regency. Explanations and promises, which were at that time considered sufficient, had re-assured the foreign Powers with regard to the interested and ambitious views of France. And yet, in spite of the apparent sincerity of the Government at that'tiine, the entire territorities of the Regency have since, by the force of events, been successively annexed to France. Who is now to guarantee these same Powers against similar result ? War has its necessities, and politics their exigencies. The diswrobation of the most legiti mate of foreign Courts, will be called up against them by popular passions. And yet it must be evident to whoever studies the interests and duties of the different Governments, that no European Poe er can reclaim at once, and at its very gates, the security of peace and the benefits of conquest ; and that, if so many unex pected circumstances have been able to change the natu ral consequences of the definitive occupation of Algiers by France, no new increase of its territory can bo made but at the price of its pre,ent connexion with its allies,' In answer to these considerations, which ..re cons ta . ntly brought forward, I have confined myself to I.+. ruie.ding them, that all mistrust o f the kind would be incomy with the spirit that presides over the policy of , A'k JANUARY , , - z ,;• 17 - VS TJ E E N G S 17N PRICE sd. .... 0 0 • ~..
