Oh, cross of Christ. first reared 'mid scoff and scorn, • Cherished in secret 'gsinst a bad world's bate; Now, on the neck maiden of beauty worn— Blazina 'mid arms and banners of the state — The flags of navies—crowned and consecrate ! Erst, type of persecution, shame, and blood; — Now the bowed knees of nations on thee wait, And kings adore where burning martyrs stood, Like Faith amidst the fl tines—unchanged and unsubilued ! Oh, blest of Heaver', Religion, God-born guide ! Not thine the torture and the bigot-chain,— Not thine the utraparing creed,—the zealot pride That would through persecution Christ attain! Thou hest no heavenly joy in human pain ! But ever com'st by love and mercy led! Yet wert thou parent called by many a Cain, Who from the altar struck his brother dead, And pray'd with gore-stained hands—as if 'twere incense shed! Caine to our souls and make ui all thine own, Come with thine eye of truth, —thy lip of grace,— Thy peace—which is the light of Jesus' throne; — Thy hope—which beameth like an angel's face; Oh, come, Religion, all the world embrace! For all are brothers, and God's home would seek ; Back to thy breast our erring footsteps trace, Teach us with Christian charity to speak, Nor crouch to high estate—nor trample on the weak ! . Swords in the crowded chancel—armed feet Trampling the solemn aisle—whom serve they here? Terror is in the 3 wild and anxious street Where gleams the holy church with axe and spear! Where Crichtou, Napier, Rutherford, appear 'Vo list the voice which menaced death defies; — The intrepid Knox !—who sees not, owns not fear, But to the gospel lifts his heavenward eyes, Content to yield his life, if for God's Word he dies? Fear? He had known captivity untamed; Had worn the dungeon's fetters undismayed: Fear? Though the martyr's death had round him flamed, Or rack inquisitorial been displayed, His heart—unconquerably firm—had made A crown of glory from the thorns of hate! Fear ? 'Twas not man could make his soul afraid. • God was his sword—his shield inviolate, And fenced by these his soul could stand and smile at fate! But not alone that bounded spot of earth, His sin-denouncing thunders smote each land Where Rome's idolatries and crimes had birth; — Her mitres shook Ineath his indignant hand : .Though offered titles, sent at Kings' command To win his silence=still no Judas he To vend his Saviour for a bribe ; and brand • The immortal conquest of a Gospel free, - For rank ambition craves, and godless bends the knee! Then vain was Hamilton's remorseless threat, Thatdarerf be mount the pulpit—even there Should he by sword and arquebus be met; Shot like a wolf within its safest lair! 'Amid spake the preacher—" For His sake I dare Not only thine—tint all sin's champions armed ! Thou of a creetilhaf knows not how to spare, Shalt learn how Truth can face thee unalarmed, And prove from bolt and brand this bo At of life is charmed And forth the lightning of his spirit flew, Striking the superstitious of his day; Its relics, images, and saints o'erthrew ; . Rending the veil which hid corruption's way ! And front that hour the pomp and the array Of mitred mammon lost their legal pride; The cross of Christ again assumed its sway ; God's book to all the world was opened wide, And nations blest His name who for redemption died ! See! mark you not the dark emotions round? The brow convulsed, the wild, vindictive eye? Methinks I hear the stern, deep murmuring sound Of curbless rage and vengeance sweeping by ! 'Tis but the Artist's mind, and genius high, Yteidiug existence to departed time; Stinwing► how Christian faith may yet defy Sirr's serpent feet the pulpit steps climb, To sell the shrines of heaven, orshake our trust sublime!

TACTICS OF THE CONSERVATIVE LEADERS ( From the Times.) • It is not the first time by many that we have concurrec with other friends of constitutional conservatism in doubting whether the Duke of Wellington and Sir Ro bert Peel did not carry to an excess, ill justified by the nature of the enemy they had to deal with, the spirit of frankness, forbearance, and reconciliation. The illus trious duke has on more than one occasion flung over the minis!ers his cloak of asbestos, which no spark of public indignation could scorch or penetrate. On the, Canada question his grace protected them from ruinitby express ing hirnself in terms of unfortunate ambiguity, which some time afterwards he cleared up in a manner imply ing full as much of actual blame to the government as would have been affixed to them by the whole world had he originally held his tongue. Sir Robert Peel, though imbued with a tendency to conciliation quite equal to that of the illustrious duke, has not hitherto indulged his dispositibn with such want of wariness or such bad for tune as would enable the tricky ministers to found upon his statements any plausible system of misrepresenta tion. Indeed, the right hon. baronet must perceive what little..eneouragement is afforded him by the'Qneen's go vermnent and their creatures to exhibit any other than a stern and uncompromising character in his political coin. municationS with them, even when in the discharge of his public duty, and in the official expression of his sen timents or intentions across the floor of the House of Commons. So ill qualified are those whom he addresses to appreciate the proceedings of an upright and straight forward man, that the return which they made to the leaJer of the conservatives for his pacific overtures of Wednesday last, with regard to the settlement of the three great Irish questions, was nothing better, in Thurs day's Downing-street prints, than a series of captious and offensive insinuations against the candour of Sir R. Peel and the good faith of his proposals to the government. The meaning and purpose of Sir R. Peel's intimation as to the course he would pursue on these questions were simply to assure ministers, that whatever measures he might feel it incumbent on him to recommend in com mittee on the corporation bill, or afterwards on the tithe bill, would be in strict subservience to a conscientious desire for the settlement—the final settlement—of the disputed Irish questions. The game played by ministers seems to be that of pro voking the conservatives into some intemperate or extra vagant - propositions, whiCh may be sent forth and de scribed to the, country as so many, perverse obstacles thrown in the way of an adjustment, on which the mi nistry may found some pretexts for further procrastina tion. . A fair and wise remedy for the inconveniences now coMplained of, and cure for the wants really felt throughout Ireland—namely, that of a tithe commuta tion, and of a relief bill for the poor—are far, we be lieve, from the thoughts or desires of the ministry. That those defects in the political state of 'lreland should long remain unprovided for, but still fostered as subjects for factious agitation, and for fictitious murmurings against the supposed repugnance of the conservatives to every species of reform; suits exactly the views, and principles, and enslaved . position of . the whigs in office. It is na tural, therefore, that any assurance conveyed to parlia- . ment of Sir Robert Peel's anxiety to close the above sources of disturbance should be wormwood to the Mel bourne ministers, and should draw down upon the right bon:bat-dna whole vollies of spiteful abuse. Likewise, respecting the corporation bill, which we have never numbered among the real wants of the peo ple of Ireland ; who care not a straw about the matter; Sir Robert Peel showed on Tuesday a sincere willing. ness to go as far as the safety of the Protestant chUrch and state would admit in effecting some satisfactory com promise upon that absurd and dangerous, though much clamoured for, innovation. His reward here, also, has been the grossest insolence front the yelping curs of Downing-street. Now, we trust that Sir Robert Peel will not he " shaken from his propriety" by such menaces. It is our earnest hope that the right honourable baronet will turn the ta bles on the whigs, and in the exposition of his Irish po licy lay before the country such a case, that, if the mi nisters refuse - to adopt his proposals, the people of the united kingdom will cry out against their factious and sinister obstinacy ; while if, for shame or fear, the go vernment dare not resist the justice of the conservative amendments, the sting will be drawn from this noxious cabinet—the peace of the country, for a time at least, be secured—and that which has constituted the sole princi ple of cohesion between the whigs, the radicalsi and Pa pists be dissolved at once and for ever. But while it is to be expected that Sir R. Peel not shrink from any honest and wholesome concession, calculated for the fair adjustment of long-subsisting quar• .rels—it is above all things the right, and must be the care, of Englishmen, to demand that lie makes no parti cle nor shadow of approximation to the proposed measures of the Queen's ministers, by which any risk .of even transient wrong can be entailed upon the sacred institu tions of the monarchy. It may be expedient to give up something, for the sake of lasting peace ; but it is of pa ramount duty to retain all that can be regarded as es sential to our permanent, happiness and safety. THE LATE SPANISH LEGION. (From the Newry Telegraph.) The unfortunate men who were entrapped into join ing the buccaneering expedition under Sir G. D. L. Evans, and have escaped being butchered in Spain, can testify that the tender mercies of liberalism are cruel. The present liberal ministers held out every inducement in their power to the people of the united kingdom to encourage them to join Evans and how have they now treated those who were silly enough to be seduced from their homes ? They have rewarded Evans with British 110oours for runninz.away when tired of being defeated, , ut wixat have tftv .doue for the .unfortunates whom he r tett Aker contending with the troops of Carlos, and a still more powerful enemy, Want, and shedding their blood in the service of the Queen. of Spain, hundreds of our countrythen have returned to England in abject poverty I and wretchedness. They have chinos ►pun the Spanish government for arrears of pay which that government will not! discharge. Our ministers have been repeatedly besought to interfere, but in vain. On Tuesday evening tl►e Marquis of Londonderry presented a petition to the House of Lords from the officers and men of the late Legion, praying ►ministers to do something for them ; but Lord Melbourne would only promise the " good offices" of himself and colleagues, and denied that the petitioners had any right to more. His lordship does the misguided and hapless men much injustice. Had he and. his colleagues not, to say the least, allowed false hopes to be held out, the Legion would never have been formed. He is, therefore, bound in good faith to see them righted. Every Englishman has an indefeasible claim upon him, as the chief minister of the crown, for protection from robbery by any foreign power ; and this claim is a thousand-fold stronger on the . part of the men of the Legion, because of Lord Mel bourne's part in getting it up. He should, as he could without much trouble, compel the Spanish government to pay the arrears forthwith. He would do-so if he were desirous to vindicate his own honour. The Legion was fraudulently originated; and all those who were of it, save the inglorious knight, have been fraudulently dealt with . from first to last. Their fate is a warning to Eng lishmen, which we hope will never be forgotten, to leave dishonourable and unjustifiable warfare to our enemies. IRISH MUNICIPAL REFORM. (From the Dublin Evening 3faio We have received from our London Correspondent the fol lowing important communication on this all absorbing subject. It will be read in Ireland with deep anxiety—and lI rce be not much mistaken, the proposed arrangements will by all parties be deemed far from satisfactory : " LONDON, SATURDAY, MAY 25.—The discussion on the Irish corporation bill has been postponed until Tuesday next. I be- Neva I can inform you pretty accurately of the concessions which the Conservatives mean to make in return for the couces -sions made to them on the Irish tithe question by the govern ment. I apprehend Sir Robert Peel will on Tuesday night in form the house that he is prepared to grant corporations to all the towns' in Irelaud having a population exceeding 15,090 souls. This will consequently include the following towns, viz.: —Dublin, Cork, Limerick, 'Waterford, Belfast and Galway. The franchise is to be a ten-pound one, and the rate under the new poot-law - bill to be the basis. Sir Robert Peel will also insist on the appointment of sheriffs, recorders, &c. being in the hands of the government, and not, as in the English bill, in thd gift of the council. It will also be intimated to the government that unless the tithe bill be framed its every particular so us to meet the views of the Conservative party, no corporate reform bill will obtain their sanction. Whether or no the plan X have sketched will receive the approval of Mr. O'Connell or his servants, the ministers, I have no means of ascertaining, but all must allow that the proposed concessions on the part of the Conservatives are large enough to satisfy the rapacity of any one save Mr. O'Coanell." This is the first . intimation in the press of either.country as to the course intended to be adopted. The reservation which sus pends the passing of the - Corporate Reform Bill, to the extent and validity of the securities to be provided for the Church in the Tithe Bill, is intended apparently to disarm the fears of those who dread the operations of expediency and the facilities of compromise—and doubtless it will reconcile many to with hold their judgments until the experiment shall have been tested by the actual provisions of both measures. Neither can we deny that the restriction of municipal rights to a high rate of popula tion—and of corporate franchise to a high rate.of taxation, will remove some of the apprehensions with which this measure is viewed by the Protestants of Ireland. We shall also admit that the retention of the power of appointing Sheriffs, Recorders, &c. from the hands of the corporate democracy to be thus created, is a vast improvement upon the En g lish system; and consequently that if the bill,,as contemplated, be carried by both Houses of Parliament, it will constitute a measure much less dangerous and objectionable than the formidable transfers here tofore insisted upon by the members of the Lichfield House conspiracy. Notwithstanding these improvements, we must en ter, in the name of the Protestants of Ireland, a caveat against the measure. After all, it is but a greater or less degree, a transfer of municipal privileges from . one party to another; and as long as that is the case in any respect, so long and so far the original objections continue to be valid. Corporations, mu nicipal or otherwise, are the creatures of the law, created for specific purposes. When these purposes cease to be exigent— or when the pursuit of them becomes inexpedient, it is obviously competent to the creating power to annihilate its own creatures; and the policy may be wise and beneficial which dictates their extinction; but it can be neither wise nor beneficial to re create those institutions in favour of an adverse principle—or even a different body of constituents—still subject to those ob jections and inconveniences which render their suppression, as far as regarded their original possessors, salutary or expedient. And such is the case of the Irish Municipal Corporations. They were created. for the encouragement of the Protestant religion, and. for strengthening the bonds of connexion between Great Britain and Ireland, by fostering in this country a British in terest. If they have become needless in these respects—if their working be prejudicial to both or either of their original objects —let them be suppressed—let them be extinguished. The Pro testants of Ireland make no objection; for peace-sake they are content to part with privileges, which, for centuries have been their birth-right. But in the name of common sense—of true religion—of sound policy, and of national faith, do not trans fer them, in whole or in part, to those against whose power and machinations they were first set up as a bulwark; do not hand them over to the enemy as instruments to he used, and effec tually used, to the promotion of purposes the very reverse of i those contemplated n their first institution. A measure short of the latter we feel confident will never content the enemies of the Protestant faith aud British connection in Ireland:—any thing approaching to it cannot but dissatisfy and discourage that powerful, intelligent, loyal, and wealthy, portion of the Irish people, on whose affections and religious sympathy the permanence of the British connection, so far as this country is concetued, altogether depends. Security for the church is, doubtless, a desirable object; but, under peculiar circum stances, it might be purchased at a rate wantonly extravagant ; and, in the present circumstances, we can ourselves command the market. We can reduce the enemy to concession, without sacrificing one principle, or abandoning one just and seasona ble advantage of our own. We can afford-to bold out, for the adversary but exhausts his vigour iu those attacks which daily Add to our triumph, by proving our position to be impregnable. We therefore recommend the protestants of Ireland to pause and ponder ere they finally approve. .The measure we confess to be divested of several of its most adverse characters :—cor porations, as now proposed, will become a name rather than a reality; in the reform proposed, the remedy dwindles into a placebo. But in proportion as it is so, it is less likely to be ac ceptable to that party to whose pretensions it professes to be a sacrifice; and we are, therefore, convinced that the safest and the best method for all would be the total abolition of the insti tutions themselves. For supposing, for a moment, the Protestants to be content —is there no other party to be satisfied t Will the Irish agita tion joy fully accept this proffered bauble of corporate equality in lieu of the substantial machine of municipal •power? Will they accept dress parts in the six raree shows of municipal dig nity reserved for their amusement, and play mayors and com mon-council men on the stage of public life, with all the strut, and as little of the reality, as the members oet lee histrionic body enact kings and cobblers—tyrants and buffoons—" lords and others," on the stage theatrical ? To ride in the gilt coach of Dublin—to walk behind a mace in Cork—to spott a threescocked hat on week days, in Limerick—to be ushered into chapel after the cap of maintenance in Waterford—to sit iu Walker's chair in Derry—or even to astonish Belfast with the unwished-for glories of a civic procession, may be an object to some—" for "little things are great to little men"—but what is this but the childishness of ambition, " pleased with the rattle, tickled with a straw ;" whilst all the greatness and solid power which manly ambition wishes to grasp, have already vanished from the empty pageant? It is true theme may be Cawtholic mayors, and com mon-councilmen, and burgesses and so forth—but "the mace" will be, as in Cromwell's eyes, "an empty bauble," and their councils so many schools of idle oratory, or noisome agitation. '['he- substantial powers of a corporation, viz., the election of sheriffs, &c., will, by the present measure, be withdrawn; and the local authority over the lighting, paving, furnishing of wa ter, and other municipal improvements, will be, in every in stance, vested in commissioners appointed for these purposes. Unlike the municipal institutions of England, in which the powers just mentioned are legally vested, the new corporations to be established in Ireland will he but the shadow of a shade— the unreal mockery—the unsubstantial pageant of our ancient corporate solidity. 'There will be the rotundity of the alderman, per chance, but nothing, as we may say, of the calapash and culapee which ministered to his greatness. Surely it is not for the sake of conferring on the one hand, or acquiring on the other, such trumpery honours, that the great and powerful Protestant interest is to be offended, and its reli gion, liberties, rights, and independence, to be endangered We beg of her Majesty's opposition to consider this, without reference to the motives which actuate the concession—for it must be apparent, to the most short-sighted observer, that the Duke of Wellington and Sir Robert Peel are conscious that the time is come when the voice of the nation Will make the accept ance of office imperative—and it is equally obvious, that the settlement of these questions is solely with a view of remo% ing all obstacles to the permanent continuance of their admittistra ion. MORE OF THE NUNNERY BUSINESS. From the New York Protestant Vindicator of April 13.) MR. RICE AND HIS DUPARQ TRIAL. We have frequently alluded to this famous trial, in Kentucky. The friends of the notorious priest Duparq, at the head of whom was Mr. Elder, the President of BardstOwn ..Romish college, brought a suit against the Rev. Mr. Rice, Presbyterian misister in Bardstown, and editor of the Western Protestant.- • They charged hint with libel. He bad published the universal talk of the State about„this.Duparq's licentious conduct, his improper connexion with nuns; the affair of the eloped nun Milly M 'Pherson, who has told certain appalling tales about this priest, and other priests. She did this. in assigning her reasons fur eloping from the horrid den of her nunnery. No body doubted her word. All the world cried out against the priests and nuns, and the nunneries! But lo! suddenly the poor eloped nun Milly M'Pherson, disappeared! She was seen last going to the house of a Roman Catholic family. And to this day she cannot be found, dead or alive ! Every one saw that her disappearance was necessary to save the priests, and the nuns, and the nunnery . She did disappear just in time. And a certain priest high in office, in Bardstown college, uttered a mysterious saying. namely, " tllilly APPhei son will be forth coming when we need her evidence!" The public called aloud for her appearance. Every body was beginning to execrate priests, and bishops, and nuns, and nun's cells, and all such dens ! Mr. Rice put these things into print. He told in print, what. every body was speaking of. The president and priests of Bardstown, felt that they were suffering. and their cause qff sinking. The priest Duparq was sent to 'France fora season, till the storm should blow over. Meantime the priests bring a law suit. They laid the damage at ten thousand (loners ! The trial went on. Some extraordinary details were dragged to light. The trial is published by Mr. Rice. The jury gave a verdict of damages, one cent, and ro costs! The sum of one cent, is by jury of honourable men, deemed the amount of the value of Duparq's character: And the priests, and .Mr. Elder in particular, have lamented most bitterly the day they had re course to a jury by trial ! They would have had abetter chance in an inquisition! While writhing under this calamity, and under the additional inflictions made on the them by Mr. Rice's hook of Trial, the priests of Philadelphia are, by the Herald, calling on the Roman public to come to the rescue ! The im plore the whole posse of the Homan subjects of the Pope, to come up with their subscriptions to aid Mr. B. J. Webb, of Bardstown, to come out with his version of the Trial, to counter act the fatal effects of this Awful Trial and this awful book of Mr. Rice. We venture to give the Philadelphia and Bards town priests an advice. " Don't publish ! You will make the matter worse ! Just agree to produce poor Miliy M'Pherson. Bring her from her dungeon, if sheds alive. If she is dead, tell the public the whole history. Only produce Milly if you can. Be advised : bring poor Milly out of her cell, from Maryland, or Kentucky, or Ohio. Be sure to produce' the eloped nun. This will settle Mr. Rice's career very soon !

And yet—it is with sorrow and shame that we record it—and yet. with these facts staring him in the face, we find the illustrious Wellington lending the sanction of his name to this ungodly system, and voting for a continued experiment on the in rats and religion of the nation through .sl i ka the agency of the i anal Schools. His Grace admitted the truth of the Bishop 'xeter's charges •he distinctly admitted that as a system of conjoint education ale national scheme had failed—that its tendency was to encourage popery, and to dis courage the protestant religion in Ireland; and yet he would leave it undisturbed to work out its evil purposes. We cau Un derstand the whigs, who have no disrelish for infidel principles; we can understand the bishop of Derry, who wishes to suoport the whigs through thick and thin ; we can understand the bishop of Norwich, in which see a fancy for popery seems to be inhe rent; but we really cannot comprehend the Duke of Wellington in the course which he has taken. His grace may probably be paving and smoothing the way for his return to power in company with his former colleagues. But we can assure him that should he trample'down in his way any of those great principles which the protestants of the em pire venerate, be will come to the helm with the public confi deuce in his virtues very much diminished, and of course with a corresponding diminution of that power which has hitherto borne him forward to the object of his ambition. The Earls of Roden, Wicklow, and Wincheisea, are not chargeable with this time-serving abandonment of either friends or principles. They boldly stood out for the sake of truth, pro testantism, and civilization, and have added to their patriotic wreath the laurel of an independence which severs them from a respected leader, whenever he appears to depart from that course which true religion points out, and the soundest policy sanctions. The speech of the Earl of Roden will be read with delight by every man in Ireland who desires to see national education conducted on sound and holy principles, who reve rences the Bible, as the word of God, and respects the clergy of the established church as a learned, pious, and able Christian ministry, zealous in their master's cause, and devoted to the service of their countrymen of all religious perivasions in what soever pertains -to their temporal or eternal happiness. We trust the Bishop of Norwich will lay to heart the truths so im pressively brought before him by this distinguished champioq of the protestant faith. THE LLAMA. Intelligentt.

NATIONAL EDUCATION (IRELAND ) (From the Dublin Evening Mail.) On Friday last, in the House of Louts, the Bishop of Exeter, in a speech .unexampled for its force and eloquence, brought toward his promised resolutions, condemnatory of the National Board of Education. To attempt an analysis of this masterly oration would imply almost a transcription of the whole: for the at raugement is So connected, the argument so close, the ex pression so condensed and unredundant, that it is impossible to the nicest ingenuity to compress the materials Within a smaller compass, or represent them in language more terse, and at the same time, intelligible. The general import, however, of his lordship's speech may be collected in the compact form of the resolutions which he proposed. They are three in number, and are as follows : " Ist. That it appears that the system of national education in Ireland has failed to attain the objects which are stated in a letter dated Oct., 1831, written by Mr Stanley, now Lord Stan ley, to the Duke of Leinster, especially as to uniting Roman catholics and, protestants in the same schools. "2d, That the' working of the system has tended to the undue encouragement of the Roman catholic and disciiuragement of the protestant religion in Ireland. "3d. - That the modifications recommended in the fourth report have not been found adequate to prevent or mitigate the evils complained of." To the proof of those propositions his lordship devoted his great talents and research with such address and effect, that the utmost defence undertaken by ministers or their friends amounted to no more than an - evasion of the charges, or the induction of a few particular cases where the system, in their Opinion, had not worked out all the evils which it has a tendency to produce. Lord Lansdowne's reply was ratheran.apology than a defence; Whilst that of the Bishop . of Derry, who was understood to ex press his "heartfelt satisfaction at haying an opportunity of re ' chrding his bumble, but conscientious, support of the national .system of education," was an open—(should we not add ?)—an iudecerous desertion of the principles to which he himself, by Sanctioning their proceedings, committed ,a large ; acid misdi rected portion of the clergy of his united diocese, in the cele brated document known as the Derry and Raphoe resolutions. Those resiihrtions were as stroLglt . condetnnator v of parts of the :national sy stem as the BiShop of Exeter himselfcould draw up; they had the Bishop's sanction; if our memory serve us cor rectly he presided at some of the deliberations in which they were adopted. But it should appear his lordship's expediency has taken another turn ; and rather than not support the Whigs, he , has turned his back ulion his own clergy. To their construe . tion we resign hint.

When the depot was first established, distinction of rank or character was unknown ; all were confined together in the grand souter ain. Then, indeed, it deserved the name of the Place of Tears," for, by what I heard of it was a pandemonium. lithe sailors, and those confined with them, had been tameable animals, and would have studied their own welfare, they might have been comfortable; but they were indomitable, being. a terror to their guards, who dreaded coming in contact with them. 11 their liberty had depended upon overpowering the seventeen gendarmes and one hundred veterans , (which composed the garrison,) they would soon have liberated themselves. I shall here relate one of their teats, as it was generally reported, in order to elucidate their character. Amonithe prisoners, there was an Englishman detained, suspected of being a spy, bearing a colonel's commission in the Russian service. He was a great favourite with the sailors; and, having cotmnitted some offence was being conducted to the eachut when they liberated hint. The whole garrison was turned out; which the men observing, tan below arming themselves, some with billets of wood , and others will' pieces of the guard-bed, which they tore up for the purpose, came op again and bade defiance to their guard, He that assumed the leadership said to.the others, "Let us not be the attacking party; let us wait till we see. blood drawn from any of us; and then we will fall upon them, and murder the whole." The commandant and the general, seeing their attitude so imposing and their determination so visible, gave up the point; and the men. returned to theirusual obedience, which at the best was little more than a state of mutiny. The standing order was, that all light should be put out at eight o'clock ; but ashen there was any new arrival, any rejoicing-night, or any snique (a cheap spirit distilled frorri potatoes) stilling, the order became a dead letter. When it was first issued, the gendarmes would venture down to put them out ; but often as they eutered the smiler On away flew hats and shoes at their lantern, and , When that iris demolished, anything that could be laid hold of flew after them, which cased a hasty retreat. They met with no other reception if ever they went down to suppress their rows. They were horrified at a regular. stand-up fight; and - Were anxious to separate the combatants, fearing they might kill each other. At length the gendarmes had such a dread of going among them, that they had to be accompanied by the veterans; and the commandant, finding the inutility of interfering, told his men to 'leave them to themselves ; and, if they chose to kill each other, they were at liberty to do so: for his pat t, be would listen to no more complaints, nor give the injured redress; and that, henceforward, they must govern themselves. They took him at his word; and, when thefts were committed, or any crime that was thought worthy of public ioquiry, a court-martial was held, and the accused brought before the, accuser; when, if foetid guilty, he was sentenced to so many stripes, which were immediately inflicted, with such severity as would bare surprised those who set their faces against corporeal punishment under any 'circumstance. Here were seamen flogging their fellow seamen; and for what reason ? . Because they could devise no other punishment equally effective to keep each other's vices in some sort of check. After the punishment bad been administered, the cat was given into the custody calla brigadier of the foil.— Elliwa!* Prison Scenes.

During the past week the imports of Grain, Flour and Meal from Ireland and Coastways have again been to a moderate extent, in some degree owing to easterly winds, perhaps still more so to the high prices prevalent in Ireland ; the weather has been such for the last eight days, that the appearance of the crops of Grass and Grain has pro gressed very little in improvement, and reports froin many farmers in this district, and in other influential counties to the southward, are far from favourable as to the crops of Wheat, which are said to be very thin, by having lost root, to an extent which it is to be hoped will prove exaggerated, in consequence of which, and of very moderate importations for several weeks, unequal to our weekly consumption, and our stocks thus diminishing, more confidence has been generally shown by the holders of good Grain, and an advance of 3d to 4d per 701 b on Wheat, is to is 6d per respective sack on Flour and Oatmeal, id to Id per 451 b on Oats, Is per qr on Malt, Barley, Beans, and Pease has been steadily demanded, and in many iimitances obtained, though to a very limited extent, here, and in all the markets of this district and 'Yorkshire. The only alteration in the duties on Grain from Foreign ports this week is a reduction of Is 6d per qr. on Oats and Beans ; the imports of Grain from Foreign ports here are likely to increase for some weeks to come, and since our last, a very active de mand has occurred for Wheat of the finest fresh qualities, and the chief part of the recent imports has changed hands, from the vessels at an increase on last quotations of 6d to 10d per 701 b ; the finest fresh blooming red Pomeranean and high mixed Danzig reaching as 6d to 7s, fine sweet old imports 5s Gd to 6s 3d, and inferior (nominally) 4s 6d to 5s 6d per 701 b, in the confiden't expectatiOn of having much loWer duties to pay, which will assuredly occur„if fair returns be made, and if the payment 'of duties lie not commenced, as last year, too soon ; sales of flour, Barley, Oats, Beans, and Pease in bond have also been made for export at small improvement. At this day's market the ad vance above noticed was steadily demanded for every article in the Corn trade. some very superior r ed Wheat in bond reached 7s 3 d per 701bs, but the milletrs and dealers bought very sparingly and timidly for immediate wants, and transactions were only to a very limit e d ext en t ; sufficient, however,'to establish the increased quotations below.

Our market to-day was moderately supplied with wheat and flour, abund an tly with Irish oats, and there was a fair supply of b ar l ey, beans and peas. In consequence of the Epsom Races, we had an unusually thin attendance of buyers tn-day, and the extent of business transacted was very trifling: The few samples of wheat on sale fully supported Monday's prices. :Flour was firm, and several of our town millers quoted the top price at 575. per sack There was a fair steady demand for distilling and malting barley' at last week's rates. Beans were unaltered in value. The demand for peas was by no means brisk, and Monday's prices were with difficulty supported. 'Wheat in bond was in request at the advance reported on Monday.
