One morning, I can remember now well, how we watched from the Hartland Cliffs a great barque that came drifting and rolling in before the western gale, while we followed her up the coast, parsons and sportsmen, far mers and preventive men, with the Manby's mortar lum bering behind us in a cart, through stone-gaps and track ways, from headland to headland. The maddening ex citement of expectation as she ran wildly towards the cliffs at our feet, and then sheered off again inexplicably— her foremast and bowsprit, I recollect, were gone short off by the deck : afe 7, wild rags of sail fluttered from her main and mizen. But with all straining of eyes and glasses, we cculd discern no sign of man on board. Well recollect the mingled disappointment and admiration of the preventive men, as a fresh set of salvors appeared in view, in the form of a boat's crew of Clovelly fishermen ; how we watched breathlessly the little black speck crawl ing and struggling up in the teeth of the gale, under the shelter of the land, till, when the ship had rounded a pint into smooth water, she seized on her like some tiny spider on a huge unwieldy fly ; and then how one still smaller black speck shewed aloft on the main-yard, and another—and then the desperate efforts to get the topsail set—and how we saw it tear out of their hands again, and again, and again, and almost fancied we could hear the thunder of its flappings above the roar of the gale, and the mountains of surf which made the rocks ring beneath our feet—and how we stood, silent, shuddering, expecting every moment to see whirled into the sea from the plung ing yards, one of the same tiny black specks, in each one of which was a living human soul, with wild women pray ing for it at home! And then how they tried to get her head round to the wind, and disappeared instantly in a cloud of white spray—and let her head fall back again— and jammed it round again, and disappeared again —and at last let her drive helplessly up the bay, while we kept pace with her along the cliffs ; and how at last, when she had been mastered and fairly taken in tow, and was within two miles of the pier, and all hearts were merry with the hopes of a prize which would make them rich, perhaps, for years to come—one-third, I suppose, of the whole value of her cargo—how she broke loose from them at the last moment, and rushed frantically in upon those huge rocks below us, leaping great banks of slate at the blow of each-breaker, tearing off masses of iron-stone which lie there to this day to tell the tale, till she drove up high and dry against the cliff, and lay, the huge brute, like an enormous stranded whale, grinding and crashing itself to pieces against the walls of its adamantine cage. And well I recollect the sad records of the log-book that was left on board the deserted ship ; bow she had been water-logged for weeks and weeks, buoyed up by her tim bercargo,the crew clinging in the tops, and crawling down, when they dared, for putrid biscuit dust and drops of wa ter, till the water was washed overboard and gone; and then notice after notice, "On this day such an one died," "On this day such an one was washed away." The log kept up to the last, even when there was only that to tell, by the stern, business-like merchant skipper, whoever he was ; and how at last, when there was neither food nor water, the strong man's heart seems to have quailed, or, perhaps, risen, into a prayer, jotted down in the log, " The Lord have mercy on us!"—and then a blank of several pages, and, scribbled with a famine-shaken hand, " Remember thy Creator in the days of thy youth :" and so the log and the ship were left to the rats, which covered her deck when our men boarded her. And well I remember the last act of that tragedy ; for a ship has really, as sailors feel, a personality, almost a life and soul of her own ; and as long as her timbers hold together, all is not over. You can hardly call her a corpse, though the hu man beings who inhabited her, and were her soul, may have fled into the far eternities ; and so I felt that night, as I came down along the very woodland road on which we are now walking, with the north-west wind hurling dead branches and showers of crisp oak-leaves about my head ; and suddenly, as I staggered out of the wood here, I came upon such a piece of chiaro-scuro as would have baffled Correggio, or Rembrandt himself. Under that very wall was a long tent of sails and spars, filled with preventive men, fishermen, Lloyd's underwriters, lying about in every variety of strange attitude and costume; while can dles, stuck in bayonet-handles in the wall, poured in a wild glare over the shaggy faces and glittering weapons, and piles of timber, and rusty iron cables which glowed red-hot in the light, and then streamed up the glen to wards me through the salt misty air in long fans of light, sending fiery bars over the brown transparent oak foliage and the sad beds of withered autumn flowers, and glorify ing the wild flakes of foam, as they rushed across the light stream, into troops of tiny silver angels, that vanished into the night and hid themselves among the woods from the fierce spirit of the storm. And then, just where the glare of the lights and watch-fires was most brilliant, there too the black shadows of the cliff had placed the point of intensest darkness, lightening gradually upwards right and left, between the two great jaws of the glen, into a chaos of grey mist, where the eye could discern no form of sea or cloud, but a perpetual shifting or quivering as if the whole atmosphere was writhing with agony in the clutches of the wind. " The ship was breaking up," and they sat by her like hopeless physicians by a death-bed side, to watch the last struggle,—and " the effects of the deceased." I recollect our literally warping ourselves down to the beach, hold ing on by rocks and posts. There was a saddened, awe struck silence, even upon - the gentleman from Lloyd's with the pen behind his ear. A sudden turn of the clouds let in a wild gleam of moonshine upon the white leaping heads of the giant breakers, and on that tall pyramid of the Black church Rock, which now stands in such calm grandeur gazing down on the smiling summer bay, with the white sand of Braunton and the red cliffs of Portledge shining through its two vast arches ; and there, against that slab of rock on your right, still discoloured with her paint, lay the ship, rising slowly on every surge, to drop again with a piteous crash as the wave fell back from the cliff, and dragged the roaring pebbles back with it under the com ing wall of foam. You have heard of ships at the lase moment crying aloud like living things in agony ? I heard it then, as the stumps of her masts rocked and reeled in her, and every plank and joint strained and screamed with the dreadful tension. A horrible image,—a woman shrieking on the rack, rose up before me at those strange semi-human cries, and would not be put away—and I tried to turn, and yet my eyes were rivetted on the black mass, which seemed vainly to implore the help of man against the stern ministers of the Omnipotent. Still she seemed to linger in the death-struggle, and I turned at last away ; when, lo ! a wave, huger than all be fore it, rushed up the boulders towards us. We had just time to save ourselves. A dull, thunderous groan, as if a mountain had collapsed, rose abave the roar of the tem pest.; and we all turned with an instinctive knowledge of what had happened, just in time to see the huge mass melt away into the boiling white, and vanish for ever more. And then the very raving of the wind seemed hushed with awe ; the very breakers plunged more si lently towards the shore, with something of a sullen com punction ; and as we stood and strained our eyes into the gloom, ane black plank after another crawled up out of the darkness :upon the head of the coming surge, and threw itself at our feet like the corpse of a drowning man, too spent to struggle more. A POET'S EARLY STRUGGLES.—When " Joan of Arc" was in the press, I had as many 'legitimate causes for unhappiness as any man need have ;uncertainty for the future and immediate want, in the literal and plain meaning of the word. I often walked the streets at din ner time for want of a dinner, when I had not eighteen pence for the ordinary, nor bread and cheese at my lodgings. But do not suppose that T thought of dinner when I was walking. My head was full of what I was composing; when I lay down at night I was planning my poem ; and when I rose up in the morning, the poem was the first thought to which I was awake. The scanty profits of that poem I was then anticipating in my lodging-house bilis for tea, bread, and butter, and those little &c,'s which amount to a formidable SUM when a man has no zesources.—fouthey'a Life and Correspon dence. AN IMPORTANT CAPTURE.—Bbye Mabaraj Singh, the Gooroo, is at length in safe custody in the Jullundur gaol. We have several communications respecting his capture, and from them we gather that it is entirely owing to the exertions of Mr. H. Vansittart and a small party of the 14th, or Skinner's Irregulars. It would appear that on the afternoon of the 28th December, information was brought into Jullundur that the Gooroo was known to be at a place near Adampore, midway botween Hoshearpore and Jullundur, with some followers, and that there was every chance of capturing him if no time were lost ; the intimation being also given that it would be necessary to to ride hard, as 14 koss must be done in an hour and a must be done in an hour and a-half. Mr. Vansittart lost no time in getting together some 20 of Skinner's Horse, and set off immediately in the direction which the guide poinred out, and on arriving at a thick enclosure of trees they were warned that they had arrived at the spot of their search by the sudden appearance of some six or seven men, who immediately took to their heels ; they were, however, pursued by a portion of the party (only ten, we are told, arrived with Mr. Vansittart), the others kept guard over the enclosure. The Rissalder of Skinner's Horse was the first to enter the enclosure, and, the others following, the Gooroo, with twenty followers, was cap tured ; they were generally unarmed, or there would, no doubt, have been a contested struggle; as it was, we hear that one man struck at Mr. Vansittart with a small axe, but a pistol-ball from that gentleman disabled the Sikh from during further mischief. This is certainly very creditable to Mr. Vansittart, and the behaviour of the Irregulars is beyond all praise; they will no doubt reap the reward promiked for the capture of the Gooroo—we believe 10,000 rupees. It is well known in certain circles that the influence of this man is unbounded amongst the Sikh chiettans and the whole population of the Punjaub ; and there is little doubt but that he has generally been the prime mover in all the conspiracies and revolts which have lately caused us so much expense, and led to so much bloodshed, whilst he is revered by all parties and ranks for his supposed power of working miracles, and is, in fact, the one holy man and profit:of the Punjaub.—Delhi Gazette. CAPITAL PUNISHMENTS.—It has the appearance of compassion and charity to think that men ought not to be put to death for their crimes, but to be kept alive, that they may repent of them. Some, both ancient and mo dern, have thought that there was a cruelty in all capital punishments that was inconsistent with the gentleness of the Gospel: but when we consider that God, in that law which He himself delivered to the Jews by the hand of Moses, did appoint so many capital punishments, even for offences against positive precepts, we cannot think that these are contrary to justice or true goodness, since they were dictated by God himself, who is eternally the same, unalterable in his perfections. This shows that God, who knows most perfectly our frame and disposition, knows that the love of life is planted so deep in our natures, and that it hath such a root there, that nothing can work so powerfully on us, to govern and restrain us as the fear of death. And, therefore, since the main thing that is to be considered in government is the goad of the whole body, and since a feeble indulgence and impunity may set mankind loose into great disorders, from which the terror of severer laws, together with such examples as are made on the incorrigible, will naturally restrain them, it seems necessary, for the preservation of mankind and of society, to have recourse to capital punishments. The precedent that God set in the Mosaical law seems a full justification of such punishments under the Gospel. The charity which the Gospel presents does not take away the rules of justice and equity. We owe to human society, and to the safety and the order of the world, our endeavours to put a stop to the wickedness of man. It is highly proba ble that, as nothing besides such a method could stop the progress of injustice and wickedness, so nothing is so likely a means to bring the criminal to repent of his sins, and to fit him to die as a Christian, as to condemn him to die for his crimes ; if anything can awaken his conscience and strike terror in him, that will do it. Therefore, as capital punishments are necessary to human society, so they are real blessings to those on whom they fall ; and it may be affirmed, very positively, that a man who can harden himself against the terrors of death, when they come upon him so solemnly, so slowly, so certainly, he being in full health, and able to reflect on the conse quences of it, is not likely to be wrought on by a longer Under the Gospel, ag well as under the law, the magis trate is the minister of God, and has the sword put in his hand, which he beareth not in vain ; for he is appointed to be a revenger, to execute wrath on him that doeth evil. The natural signification of his carrying the sword is, that he has authority for punishing capitally, since it is upon those occasions only that he can be said to use the sword as a revenger. Nor can Christian charity oblige a man, whom the law has made an avenger of blood, to refuse to comply with that obligation, which is laid upon him by the constitution under which he is born ; he can .......... only forgive that of which he is the master, bus t'he other is a debt, which he owes society ; and his private forgiv ing the wrong himself does not reach to that other obli gation, which is not in his own power to give away. — Bishop Burnet. POLICE COURT. -Y ESTERDAY - _ ESTERDAII STREET THEFT.—A young man, named Lamheth, was charged by a lady, Mrs. Hartiet Septima Wylde, of Great Crosshall-street, with lobbing her of her purse in Church street, on Saturday afternoon. The lady was looking at some goods in the window of Mr. Holmes's shop, when she felt' - 1 f- her purse snatches, .rom her hand, round which part of it was twisted. The prisoner made off, but was pursued by two young men, and finally captured by them, and Inspector Anders, near Williamson square. The purse and money, a half-sovereign and two shillings were found upon him. He was committed for trial. CAUTION TO SEAMEN NOT TO DESERT THEIR SHIP. — Eight sailors, who had embarked by the ship Huskisson, for a foreign voyage, were charged with deserting the ves sel, after having signed articles, so that others had to be engaged in their places. They had gone to sea with the vessel, which encountering bad weather put back in two days. They refused to go to sea in her again, on the pleo that they had got their clothes wet through and through in the forecastle. The vessel had since gone to sea. A young man, agent to Mr. Tobin, the owner, said that there was nothing wrong with the forecastle, and that the captain had offered them dry clothes out of the ship's slop-chest, and had separately asked them to come on board, but they each refused.—Mr. Rushton said it was ridiculous for seamen to complain of wet clothes, while in the channel in heavy weather, and sent the whole of them to gaol for 30 days. INTERCEPTING LETTERS FOR THE POST-OFFICE.-- John Wilden, a boy, was charged by Mr. Braithwaite with keeping and making sway with two letters, out of three, which he had sent him with to the post-office, giving him 3d. to pay the postage. One of the letters, addressed to London, had reached its destination. One of the other two were addressed to a provincial town, and one of them had enclosed half of a .£lO note, the other half of which had been previously sent and received. The prisonner, it appeared had ii' the -.Ken the coppers for , postage to treat himself to one of the shows in Lime sreet. Mr. Rushton said that as half of the note was in possession the money would not be lost ; and he reman ded the prisoner for seven days, to find, if possible, the other half. . COMMITMENTS AND FINES.—John Johnson, for steal ing a coat from Samuel Oakley, was committed for trial. • imprisonment for picking pockets in various parts of the town. These light-fingered gentry are very adroit, but the detectives are almost equally so in watching and apprehending them.—A rough carter, who with a cart, on Sunday afternoon, ran drunkenly down Rupert-lane, and, by contact, broke several of the iron rails opposite the house of Mr. Bishop, a teacher in the Collegiate Institu tion, was fined for drunkenness and damage to the full amount and costs.—Patrick Kane, for stealing a piece of a cheese from the shop of Sarah Chapman, was sent for trial.—Catherine Fazakerley, stealing a flower pot, with a plant which she offered for sale—trial.—John Johnson, for stealing, on Sunday evening last, a top coat, in the vestry of the Wesleyan Chapel, Mount Pleasant, was sent for trial. Coats had frequently been missed, and the prisoner was watched, and caught in flagrante delictu, before he could leave the room with his prize. —Three foreign sailors were fined £lOO each for smuggling (amongst them) 861bs. of foreign manufactured tobacco.— Several persons were severely fined for assaulting police officers in the exercise of their duty, and others for attempting to rescue prisoners. —A soldier belonging to the barracks was remanded on the charge of so violently assaulting a married female that she could not appear. He denied that he knew anything of the matter. CUSTOM-HOUSE OFFICERS CHARGED WITH CONSPI RACY TO DEFRAUD THE CROWN.-011 Friday twelve men, named George Hopkins Judge, Andrew Pope, Jas. Heywood, Geo. Moore Callow Cotteen, Saml. Thornley, John Reynold Wilding, John Broadfoot, John Master man, Robert Simpson, William Higgins, John Davies, and Joseph Foyer, employed in the tobacco warehouses in connexion with the Customs, were charged with conspi racy to defraud the Crown. Mr. Beverley, of the Cus tom-house, London, conducted the case against the pri soners, who were defended by Mr. Snowball. The fraud sought to be proved was, that the prisoners had conspired to carry away tobacco, which they concealed from day to day about their persons, the prisoner Judge, who was gatekeeper, and whose duty it was to search the men coming out of the warehouses, being cognizant of the fact. The principal witness was a man named Thomas Brady, who had formerly been employed in the ware houses, and had himself been imprisoned for stealing tobacco. After a long hearing on Friday, the case was remanded till Saturday, when, the whole of the witness es having been examined, Pope, Wilding, Heywood, Thorn ley, Davies, and Simpson were discharged, and the re maining six prisoners stood further remanded till yester day. Mr. Rushton attached no weight to the evidence of the man Brady in cases where it was unconfirmed by res pectable corroborative testimony ; and the conduct of this witness in giving testimony against his fellow-workmen, with whom, according to his own admission, he bad been concerned in the conspiracy, caused him to be hooted in the street, and it was with difficulty that he escaped seri ous molestation. It may be stated that the prisoner Judge, since his connexion with the tobacco warehouses, has given evidence against no fewer than forty-one persons charged with stealing tobacco. The six prisoners were again placed at the bar yesterday, at the termination of the usual business of the day,—Mr. Beverley called Mr. W. Rean to speak to the state in which Brady was, at the time he was detained respecting some tobacco. Mr. Reane said he was warehouse keeper at the Qneen's to bacco warehouse in 1848, when Brady was detained. Brady came to his office apparently intoxicated, and asked for some money to get a glass. Witness recollected Brady, saying he had received a letter from Ireland con taining £lO, adding that it did not last him long.—ln reply to questions by Mr. Snowball, witness said he did not kziow of any man ever apprehended at the warehouse who had passed Judge's search. He always considered judge did bis duty most efficiently, and always considered an honest 512 d upright man. Witness knew nothing of Brady of his own knowledge. Mr, S nowball called aczawnif several witnesses as to the character and conduct of Judge. Thos Besuchamp said Judge searched the men very strictly, and no one in the warehouse ever suspected him of wrong doing. He had never henrd a complaint against him, and had always a good character of him for honesty. David Alexander, another officer, gave similar testimony.—Mr. John Connor, a locker in the warehouse, said he had been appointed to watch Judge by a special order from the inspector general in September last, and closely watched him until the 6th January last. He never found the isligetest reason to suppose that Judge allowed persons to pass with tobacco upon them. S o s t r i c t , in deed was Judge, that had witness himself been disposed to take one single ounce of toLacco, he dared not have at tempted it.

The Rev. Rector Camp bell, Rev. F. D. Parry, Rev. J. North, Rev. W. Hesketh, and Mr. H. Banner, were present, and several ladies. The proceedings commenced by the Rev. Rector Camp bell calling upon the treasurer, Mr. Banner, to read the report.

They would all approve of that part of the report which spoke of the exertion and ability of those connected with the institution, for without efficient ma nagement all primary efforts must be unavailing. Mr. Banner had succeeded in collecting together 150 children, whom he might regard as his own children. If he were an ordinary man he would be content ; but he was anxious now to bring together as many boys, and then be might truly lay claim to having a larger family than any other man. Should he accomplish his benevolent de sign, he (the Rev. Mr. H.) trusted he would be rewarded by the same obedience and affection that was apparent OR the part of the children by whom they were surrounded towards their benefactor.—Mrs. JONES seconded the re solution.—The next resolution conveyed the thanks of the meeting to those clergymen who had contributed to the fund by preaching in its behalf during the past year. —Mrs, Moss seconded the resolution.—Tbe Rev.

THEATRE ROYAL. — Since the departure from amongst us of the veteran Macready, Mr. Barry Sullivan and Mrs. Warner have been appearing in a succession of classical dramas, and have delighted the discriminating portion of our play-going public. Opinion points strongly to this gentleman and lady, as being destined to hold in future the highest places in the public's regard. FRATRICIDE.—On Tuesday Tuesday two brothers, named Egan, residing at Ballyduff, King's County, who have had many altercations, but who were otherwise well-behaved men, had a quarrel whilst one of them was ditching, when one of them must have killed the other with the spade, and then absconded, for the bloody instrument, and the lifeless body, sadly mutilated and bleeding, are all that is at present left to tell the tale. ARRIVAL OF LORD GOUGH AND MAJOR EDWARDES. --On the arrival of the Steam-ship Indus on Sunday, the Southampton docks were densely thronged bye great crowd of the inhabitants of Southampton. Lord Gough was received in the most enthusiastic manner, and re turned thanks from the paddlebox of the steamer. Major Edwardes was likewise callad for, and was greeted with tremendous cheering. A complete ovation in fact was prepared, and the two gallant officers disembarked amidst thunders of applause both from the ships in the dock and from the shore, the band of the Indus playing appropriate music. HERR HALLE AND HERR ERNST'S CONCERTS. — The selection of music given by these celebrated instrumen talists at the Royal Assembly Rooms, on Friday night, was one of the greatest treats ever provided for a Liver pool audience ; yet we grieve to say that the attendance was limited indeed. The fine harmonies of Mendelsohn, and other classical composers, inimitably performed, were literally played to empty benches. We trust to have to record a more satisfactory result of remaining concerts advertised. The musical portion of our fellow_ townsmen will not congratulate themselves if they find that, in neglecting to attend, they have missed hearing in Herr Halle a pianist who is amongst the first of his day ; and in Herr Ernst a violinist whose tone and chaste exe cution we never remember to have heard surpassed. A GRATIFYING RFMINISCENCE.—In the course of his speech on Thursday night, Sir James G ra h am remar k ed, as one season for withholding a present reduction of tax ation, that " we ought not to forget that the income tax eepires !n 1851, and that we ought not to ruce in and sw eep away the revenue now waiting discussion ;" and he proceeds to state, " if it s h ould be deemed expejigut to reimpose that tag, I will certainly p u t i n a stronglildiaidn behalf of the landed interest for an alteration of tliklienint on which they are assessed to that tax." Even the email, crumb of consolation to be derived from this wuranen must be gratifying to the farmer ; but the publktstt - large would have been b e tt er pl ease d w ith the thougitt44t the tax is to cease altogether in another year. Its ttriio.Bi4ea was a fraud in the first instance ; and its unequaliptessure is becoming day by day more unbearable.
