the girls. He was committed for trial on one of the
charges. The paper which vintains the report of the
trial is unfortunately missirg .rom our file, and we
cannot state the result ; but the fo:lowing paragraph,
velOch appears in the Australian Sportsman of 10th
March, shown that the interests of common decency
end common humanity require the institution of a
gent and searching inquiry into the Effete by the
home government :
The orphan girls who mired hither by the Inchienan
rto have been treated in a nice na leer by the officers
in ch-rge. It came out in evidence, en Wednesday last,
during rue trial of one of those w) ethics for an unmanly as-
ssult on a poor girl, that the surgeon superintendent had
invented a new punishment fur re:rectory young women.
His system was this—
" To take the offender, put her in msh's trousers, and
then tzoise her in the most conspicuous part of the vessel, to
the d.usion of the crew and others, end ti the obscene This
to which on board ship such a spectacle must give rise." This
humane din iplinarian also stated, that he had suggested
another mode of punishment, namely, " to have belts
made to go round the girls' waists and then to sling them up
to the yard arm."
We are told that upon Mr. Justice IL:admen (who seemed
homr struck at the doctor's desmiption of Hl'. new punish-
ment" asking him ). if a girl so slung .could not he rather
an indelicate spectacle ?" he replied that most of the girls
woul I not feel its indelicacy.
The judge gave this surgeon-superiutendsnt the severest
rebuke when he suggested that the delicacy ot the men might
ne offended attach a disgraceful sight.
We trust that full reports of the proceedings in the Su-
preme Court during the past week, in the matter of the
Itichianan, will be sent to the C donial.office.

NEW ZEALAND.—The Secretary of State bad
authoritei Sir George Grey to constitute the southern
half of the southern island of New Zealand together
with Stewart's Island, into a separate province. The

GERMANY.

AUSTRIA.—We have news from Vienna toJaly 8.
The emperor was accompanied home from the army
by the Archduke Joseph Charles, the War Minister,
Count Giulai, and the Adjutant-General, Count
Griince. In the evening, the emperor went, with his
parents and brothers, to the theatre of the Corinthian
Gate, where his 'bolt campaigns won him a cheer
from the people.
The Fiyyelmezo, at Presburg, publishes, under date
cf the s•h, that on the 3rl (that is, the day after the
battle of A:s, or O'Szolly, which has been already
reported, there took place an obstinate battle before
Comorn, in which 1,500 of the gantries' fell. The
Russians lay claim to having killed 500 hussars, and
8 pieces of cannon remained in the hands of the
Austrians. The Preiburg correspondent of Lloyd
says that General Bechtold has taken Wesprim.
None of these reports are confirmed from other more
reliable sources.
The following report appears in the Wiener
Zeitwg upon the entrance of the Russian corps of
General Loden:

Oa the 18:h of June the 6th Russian annyrrpe under
General Laden entered the Austrian territory. The men
care „ remanded by General Ludes in person, pene-
trated Transylvania by the Tomos par; the 2nd under Ge-
neral Engelhardt, by the Tnreharg ; and the 3rd, coming
from Moldavia, by the Oyes pt The lit reps of the
enemy opposed to General Laden wee 1,000 BIM etrocg, and
provided with two cannon. Notwithstanding his heavy fire
the enemy was repulsed without any ler of importance, and
hie attempt to make a grad afterwards upon the,Bredir was
r quickly frastreted. The vanguard took possession of
this mountain, and the main cope romped near the Con-
vent of Wild, the key to the enemy's first pukka. Early on
the morning of the 20th the *then philtre of Beret,
in the valley of Tose, was curl d by stone, notwith-
standing its natural strength, in, need by the barricades of
felled timber and ditches, wean ono obstinately defended.

PRoonisas OP THE CHOLERA. Mr. W. Baker
held sit inquests in various parts of his district, on the bodies
of persons who died from Asiatic cholera, and verdicts to
that effect were returned in every ease. It appeared that
the deceased, without an exception. had Non living when
attacked by the disease in districts where the drainage
was bad.

ABOLITION OP KING EDWARD'S STAlRe—Sa-
torday a special session was held in the Court-house, Oa-
bwne.street, Whiiechapel, pursuant to a notice issued by
Mr. Thomas Reynolds, the high constable of the Tower
Hamlets, "for the purpose of considering the propriety of
discontinuing and stoppteg uo a certain court, alley, or
place called King Edward's Stairs, on the south ride of
Wepping Nigh-street, leading out of a certain highway
called Wapping High-street into a certain highway called
the River Timmes, and Wag wholly situate within the said
pariah of St. John's, Wapping." After some consultation,
the magistrates being satisfied that the stairs were a nui.
mum, ordered then to be stopped.
THE IRISH LINEN AND DAMASK TRADIL—The
Benner of Mier has the following further report of the
prosperous state of trade in ,the north :"Our exports of
ied linens to foreign ports and across channel, for the
past week, amounted to 676 pickages—invoice value, about
65,0001. The flax-spinners continue brisk and are increasing
their machinery. Their stacks of yarns have not been so low
for a long time as at present.
THE ENCUMBERED ESTATES COMMISSION.—The
Mercantile Advertiser says—" It is stated that Sir Edward
Sugden has consented to act as head of the commission for
the sale and transfer of encumbered estates in Ireland. We
believe that the two other commissioners, and the secretary,
have not yet been named. It is stated that a commissioner-
ship was offered to Mr. Jonathan Henn, Q C., but that he
declined it, on the ground that the duties would interfere
with his professional avocations."

DEFEAT OF THE GERMANS.
The Ibrontitall" of the 7th instant publishes the
Wowing :
At two o'clock on the 6th instant the Danes made &sortie,
with ea army of 16 battalions, from Fredrieis, and attacked
our poeiti ma. The accounts are various, but the attack
seems to have been fearful, end our troops and the batteries
have unquestionably suffered very much. By next pest we
shall learn the nearer details.—The post-offtee at Hadereleben,

This atorniag the Danes made a sortie against our left

BEBLIN, Mar 20.
Waldeck yesterday underwent en examination of
Ithree hours. He is to be tried for high treason. His
family is admitted to see him in the prison of the
Stadt-voigter. Stein and other democrats bare taken
the hint and left Berlie.
The municipality of Glop' have pained a resolu-
tion in favour of the final validity of the Frankfort
constitution. Here, in Berlin, the two municipal
assemblies of the mogistrat and Sta&-rerordneten
have become all at once exceedingly loyal, breathing
devotion to the king and hostility to the German con-
stitution, which they swore by a week or two ago.
These Germans talk of French mutability, and are a
thousand times more fickle themselves.
Twenty-two of the landwehr men at Magdeburg

remained in the German harbours. The exportation
of war stores to Denmark has also been prohibited.
The ministerial organ, Deutsche Reform, looks on

The Solicitor-General asked that these cases might not be

Mr. Russell said he wise not instructed, but it was proba-
ble that he would have to appear, as he had hitherto done,
on behalf of the defendant, and he had no objection to the
pos•ponement.
The Viee-Chancellor said there was no probability of the

FORIAZ V. GOLNET AND OTHZRL—COVNTT COUNI6.
CIIIITIOILARL
In this ass a plaint bai been levied in the Wiltshire
County Court. The plaintiff notified that he would require
a jury, and summonses having been issued for a jury, the
defendant obtained from a judge at chambers a writ of cer-
tiorari, in order to have the case tried in one of the superior
courts, on the ground that the plaintiff was a banker of
great influence in the neighbiortiood in which the cue was
to hays been tried, and that the jury summoned were all
favourable to him, and some of them had declared they
would find a verdict fer him if they had an opportunity.
Mr. Hodges now moved, oa sflidavits, for a rule to show
cause why the certiorari should not be set aside. Amongst
the guarani raised was whether the County Courts Act
9 and 10 Vie., c. 95, repealed, the 19 Geo. 111., c. 70,
and 7 and S Oeo. IV., c. 71, which were general is their
terms, requiring a defendant when he removed a cue by
certiorari from an inferior court, to find two sureties for
the payment of the debt and cats; and the 96th section of
the County Courts Act provided that no plaint should
be removed unless the chbt claimed should exceed 61., and
" then only by leave of a judge of one of the superior
oourts, and. upon such terms as to the payment ot costs,
or giving security, &c., as to the learned judge should
seem fit."
A rule Nisi was granted.
The Court then too k the peremptory paper, but no cue of
interest was disposed of.

JAMAICA.

The Dfen•ning Journal of April 23 has the follow-
ing summery of news :
Siuee the departure of the last mail not a circumstance
has occurred of interest to parties abroad, or which demands
particular rot ce at our hands. A pubic meeting h4d at
the town of la:month on the lath inst. is hardly an excep-
tion to the remark. That meeting had for its object an ap-
pFeatinn to the government and parliament of the mother-
country for the remodelling of the council; the
necessity for enforcing the WITS trade treaties with foreign
nations was added to the resolutions having the former ob-
ject in view. There exists a difference of opinion with respect
to the change which ought to be effected in the upper
branch of the leg;elatiree. Same are in favour of enlarging
the council, by the addition of non-official members, and
others of a more complete and effectual reform in the mode
of conducting the ledialative businers of the country. The
demand for re sponsibie government has alarmed a good
m toy who fancy that whatever originates in Canada, or
assimilates to Canadian forms, must be revolutionary and
ffijectionable. The Falmouth meeting determined in fa-
' your of remodelling the council, but lett the mode by which
that was to oe accomplished to the home government and
parliament. The prop wed alteration in that board, or in.
crease of the number of its members, will not be eutEcient.
We should prefer that an executive council should be formed
at the same time ; bui, if there are any objections to this ,e-
-position, it ean remain for future eoasiderati•n. That such
a council is needed, no one who has paid ordinary attention
to the proceedings of our assembly for the last three or for
years can doubt. Speculation is rife as to the instruc-
tions which the executive may receive from the govern-
ment relative to our affairs, and the prffinhility of the legis-
lature beieg main called to meet and proceed tabueinese
previous to a dissolution. One or the other course must be
adopted by or Were the 15th October. when the Import
Duty Bal will sew to operate. The island remains tranquil
and peaceful, and all panics are hoping that the improve-
ment which has taken placer in the produce market may
continue, and be progressive. The best and most effectual
sedative for this, and other equally excited and exciteable
sugar and coffee producing dependencies, is good prices in
the British markets.

TRINIDAD.

In Trinidad an ordinance hes; been pused by the
council "to provide for the holding, in certain cues,

" That the board pray her Majesty to make Port of

The Leeward Distriot Agricultural Society's report
for tte month of March is as follows :
In direct opposition to the old adage, " March comes in
like a lamb," but, we are sorry to add, " went not out like
a lion." The month has been characterised throughout by
light winds and calms, in consequence of which, together
with a great scarcity of fuel, the reaping of the crop has been
much retarded. We hive to remark an unusual visitation
at this period of the year—a heavy tall of water, which took
place on the night of the 23rd, and which occasioned much
injury to the land. The blight, which has for ems years

attacked certain portions of the district, we regret to observe,
is extending its ravage. We conaretulafe the agricultural
interest of the two imitates, in taring loaded 13 Speights'

Mi.SOTHERON was 111401 obliged to the bon. mem-
ber Vr Stroud tor asking the question. It was quits true
that much alma had risen among pencils who wire not
much in the habit of reading acts of parliament, because in
one el iuse of his bill the commivi niers for the reduction of
the rational debt were mentioned. (A laugh.) They
feared that their funds were to be applied to the reduction
of the national debt. It was hardly necessary for him to say
th.X there was no foundation for the alarm. (Hear, hear.)
On the contrary, the object of his bill was to give friendly
iocietios proper control over their Weir:, by empowering
theca to cell for and examine their accounts whenever they
might deem it necessary for the pu-pose of ascertaining
their rolvency.

The news from the provinces is but of blight im-

Ord+, a Carlist chief, and the consequent dissolution
of hie band. In Catalonia the breaking up of the
Carl;st bands sill continues, some escaping into

whose ramifications even led to Seville, Cadiz, and
Malaga, hu been brought to light.

IRELAND.

Demme, MAT 22.
A feeling of intense indignation prevailed here
universally at the intelligence of an Irishman firing
at her Majesty, who is more beloved and respected iu
Ireland than any of her royal predecessors. The
Press of last night, after expressing the general feel-
ings of the public towards the Queen, utters the
" hope that her Majes'y will not suffer the villany of
an individual mi creext to stand between her and a
personal knoslelge of the millions of her Irish sub-
jects." It is the tirst time that an Irishman has ever
attempted to harm the person of an English
monarch.
At the instance of the Lord Mayor a special meet-
ing of the town council is to be summoned for the
purpose of addressing her Majesty.
The Whitworth Hospital has, owing t r the kind

GUIANA.

From this colony the intelligence is of a painful
character. The labourers on one estate (plantation
" Zorg") 011 the Arabian coast have evinced such
insubordination as to require the interfer.-zce of the
police, aided by the rural constables, to defeat them,
they having gone so far as to tarn out, armed with cut-
lasses, to seize the estate's provisions. Five of them
have been committed to gaol. Climes and casual-
ties were of almost daily recurrence.
In Georgetown three meetings of the "Combined'
Court " had taken place, at which the financial mem-
bers had carri.d the principle of retrenchment to such
length as, is saiti, had taken even their own supporters
by surprise. Ttey commenced with the church, and
instead of confining themselves to a redaction of 23
per cent, on incomes exceeding 700 dollars per annum,
they have, in the majority of items, struck off 50 per
sent. "at one fell swoop"; and in some instances have
wholly expunged from the estimate salaries and
allowances which were held on the guarantee of
solemn contracts, and which it was expressly set
forth should be paid during the incumbency of the
present possessors. This information has, however,
reached us through a partisan channel, and we must
reserve our judgment till we have heard bath sides of
the question.

SUNDAY TRADING IN THE METROPOLIS.

Last night a public meeting was held at the Mary-
leboue Litersry and Scientific Institution, Edward-street,
Portman equate, for the purpose of aiding the effort new
being made for putting an end to Sunday trading in the me-
tropolis.
The chair was recnpied by Mr. NICHOLAY, of Morel
street, who said the object was neither a party nor a religious
one, and that the great design of this and similar met tinge
waste support Mr. Hiodley. M P.. who was about to intro-
duce a .bill into the House of Commons to promote the
proper observance of the Sabbath. Ile was sorry to say that
Sande tradieg was increasing in London, while it was re-
trograding in the provincial towns, and even in Paris; and,
theretore, he thought that same vigorous legislative enact-
ment should be passed, to put an end to the trades which
ware carried on, more particularly at the west and of the
metro lie.
Dr. THORNE proposed the first resolution, which enne-
cisted the principle that one dip in seven was necessary for
the moral, intellectual, and physical improvement of man,
and for the movr discharge of his higher obligations.
Mr. LIYESAY seconded the resolution, and in doing so
contended, iu oppuition to the chairman and the prop4ser,
that the question was more especially a religious one.
Mr. HAYMAN moved that the present laws Li the ob-
servance of the Sabbath were wholly inoperative, and that
the meeting highly approved of the principle of the bill of
Mr. Hindley, M l'., and pledged themselves to give it their
hearty support.
The prom. edings terminated with the usual vote of thanks
to the chairmen.

since Mrs. O'llsherty, of Mill-street, (kirk, accidentally brui.ed her
breasl; for nsonths afterwards the pate increased, and the part be.
came fearfully swollen; various applications were tried, without
firing the least relief; ultimately an abscess formed, discharging a
great quantity of humour, which debilitated her constitution to an
alarming extent. At this stage a lady strongly recommended her to
try Holloway's Ointment and Pills, hiving witnessed their pod
effects on former occasions, which advice she followed; and these
fine medicines answered most satisfactorily, for the wound was soon
healed, and her health is now completely renovated. Sold by all
