We have very little of importance to commit-

complete failure of the rebel Deemer,- of Ouvoli,
in making any impression upon Major Mac-
donald, their frequent repulses, and severe loss, ap-
pear to have greatly damped the spirit of the
rebels. They artladd also to have resented some
sagorous chastisement inflicted upon those who
were the first to run, when none were disposed
to stand. The rebel leaders have not acquired a
right to punish cowardice by setting an example
of courage. The tranquillity so happily restored
by Major Coxon in all the country from A lipoot
to Bootle remains uninterrupted ; but threats
have been heard of the rebel Desionre's intentions
to collect his scattered forces, and to mote in that
direction; Lieut.-Col. Kelly has therefore sent a
reinforcement to Major Coxon. Ire Saffregain
