sergeant, two sergeants, two corporals, and 21 privates,
and were from various regiments of horse and foot. Some
of these brave fellows have been engaged in the principal
battles fought in the Crimea, and all were more or less
severely wounded. They soon became objects of interest
to a large number of persons on the quays, and every
accommodation was provided for them by the police on
duty. One man, a private from the 11th Hussars, ex-
cited special notice by wearing around him the cloak of
a Russian officer.

THE MILITIA.
The total strength of the Ist Regiment of. Warwick-
shire Militiae now assembled for permanent duty, exclu-
sive of commissioned officers, is about 400 men. Parties
commanded by officers are stationed in Birmingham,
Coventry, Stratford, Atherstone, and other towns, for
the purpose of recruiting, which, however, does not
proceed very satisfactorily.
The second division of the Northamptonshire Militia,'
composed of 307, including officers and men, will arrive
at Liverpool, from Dublin, to-day. They will be imme-
diately forwarded to Plymouth.
The:;ne Was a great muster of the city of Dublin regi-
ment Saturday, in order to ascertain which of them
were willing to volunteer for foreign service, either at
Gibraltar, Malta, or the lonian Isles. Colonel Latouche,
Lieut.-Col. Routhe, and other officers were at the Linen-
hall Barracks at half-past 12. The men were formed in
hollow square, when the colonel addressed them in ex-
planation of the course before them. The officers, on
being asked if they would volunteer, walked into the
centre of the square, with the exception of the doctor,
Surgeon Leech. The men were then told off in com-
panies, and individually asked, when it appeared that
the great majority had volunteered to accompany their
colonel wherever he was going. .There was loud cheer-
ing on this being announced. It appears that not more
than three fourths of any militia regiment will be re-
quired ; the remainder is to stay at home and act as a
depot.
The Antrim Rifles having given upwards of 75 volun-
teers to the line, Ensign Goddard has been recom-
mended to the proper authorities for a commission in the
regular army.
The Monaghan Militia has given 52 volunteers to the
regular army.
The Galway Militia having been called on to volun-
teer for the Ordnance and line during last week, their
colonel, the Marquis of Cianricarde, addressed his regi-
ment on parade on Friday morning, stating that an
officer from the Royal Artillery, and another from the
39th
Regiment, were there in attendance, by authority
from the War-office, to receive the volunteers. On
noticing a slight hesitation, in consequence of some mist
understanding respecting the amount of bounty each
volunteer would receive in cash, Captain Eyre, of the
Galways, sprang forward, and said, that he and his
brother officers volunteered, with their men, in a body
for the army of the Crimea. This met with a hearty
response by a cheer from this gallant corps.

THE ADYANCED SQUADRON OF THE
BALTIC FLEET.

TartAr,
Nyberg, Great Belt, April 9.
We had a good passage to the Scaw, having rounded
The Imperieuse,
that point On the third day, when Captain Yelverton, in
the Arrogant, 46, was detached with the Esk, the
Elsinore and Copenh age, but, meeting with the ice
, and the Cossack, under his orders, to proceed to
before reaching the latter place, he did not get beyond
Landecrona,, where his squadron is confined by the ice.
with the Enryalus and the Conflict,
proceeded towards the Great Belt, and arrived off Reel!
Ness on Sunday afternoon, the let inst. The former
ship touched the ground off that point, but came off
again without the slightest injury. On the 3d a great
accumulation of ice surrounded the ships, and, in order
to c','e;'.pe being drifted away by it, the three ships were
removed to Spiro Bav, where they remained till the
morning of the . 9th. on the 7th the Conflict was sent
towards Nyberg to report the state of the ice, and on
reaching that place found it breaking up, and a southerly
current has since drifted it into Kiel Bay. Yesterday
having been unfavourable from snow and sleet for
moving the ships,. we all got under way this morning at
6 o'clock, and arrived at this anchorage soon after noon.
All well."

_VEST ITUiSIOIY l'iNT TJIL REBRIDES,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE St1:1.

Sin, —AlloWme through the medium of your columns
td Cali attention to the severe distress Which now op•
presses numbers of the poor but loyal population of the
Hebrides and West Highlands.
Owing to an insecurity of the tenure of those who
hokl land, the want of money capital, and the absence of
the economy.it is the object of the Royal Patriotic and
Industrial Society of Scotland to teach, the people re-
ferred to have, from time immemorial, been accustomed to"
experience great difficulties in obtaining the most simple
elements of food between the exhaustion of one crop and
the ingathering of another, generally from June till
September.
Owing to a more complete failure of the potato crop
last autumn than in any previous year, and a wet and
bad harvest, of their scanty patches of oats, or barley,
aggravated by the dearness of provisions, destitution in
a most alarming form oppresses the people of the remote
islands of the west, and the society bas been urged to
extend industrial employment, in, knitting of hose, the
weaving of cloth, towelling, &c., which it organised in
1851, Fai a means of "helping the poor to help them-
selves." As regards this plan of feeding the hungry,
without pauperising, them in spirit, the most gratifying
testimonials have been received.
Miss Rov, a benevolent lady, in the Isle of Mull, who
kimily paid fair wages for the society, in return for
work, has thus written :—" If the- benevolent donors
could see the eagerness with which the poor people
crowd for work, and the blessings they bestow on those
who sympathLe with them end initigAe their distre,3s,
they would feel highly gratified at the result of their
efforts." The testimony of M iss B. M‘Lean, of
Coll,' and of' tlle Rev. Mr. and Mrs. McLeod, of Mull,
is to. the same effect. The Rev. Mr. APTavish, of
Islay, in requoving a gt‘Snt of 151. (since sent) says,
"I find destitution is becoming more general. es-
pecially among the females." A veteran officer. Cap-
tain E. Rosa, late 931 Highlanders, who superintended
the distribution from our fund of a grant in a district on
the mainland, says, "I never knew so little money in
the way of relief do so much good."
Mrs. M' Allister, the lady of Dr, M'A., of Broadford,
with reference to another recent errant, says in 'a letter
to our secretary, Mr. Bond, dated the 10th ult,, "Be-
fore the females got employment I certainly dreaded
serious consequences from want, but since they have
had knitting I take heart, as there are, comparatively
speaking, few complaints. They are so eager to earn as
much as they can that they if. up two nights in the
week, they say they will have time enough to sleep when
they will have nothing to do." In another letter from
the same lady, dated the 31st ult., in describing the
nin r
terriyui
earnest desire of the most elderly and infirm to earn the
broerna,in they 'tAolr do thel w

in the r-•ots of the pine, which give li.Yht in the " ingie

From the Island of Harris, where the Society ha /I

nreviously afforded valuable aqsi,ta-Aee, in a letter now
before me, dated 31 Apri:. ad tressed to our secretary
rem the schgolmaster of Sualla.•, .asking. for renewed'
aid (since grante,3 to a small extent) to that remote
island, he says. "The poor creatnres• are in a famished.
state,, without food or clothes ; neither have they a par—
ticle of seed to crop their lands with. Unless some
seed be sent them, they will next year 'lra worse off than
they are this one. I never saw such severe destitation.
I fear many of the poor crsatures have already starved
for want of food ! I hope your committee will take
their aid position into consideration, by sending them
immediate relief."
In asking you, sir, .t-) bring these paincul facts be-
fore your readers, I know I need make no further ap-
peal and will mereir• observe, that in the worst phases
of Irish destitution, the able-bodied poor were entit',3
to relief, had workhouses to go to, or could iN4Lder for! h
to plead for :•id. These poor people in the Hebrides,
the kindred of those brave Highlanders, who have per--
formed prodigies of valour on behalf of their Queen and
oomtrv, are not entitled to relief while able-bodied ;
when disabled they may have miles to travel, to find a
poor-law inspector ; 'they have no workhouses in which
they can take refuge ; they cannot. wander forth, and
invade, like hungry wolves, our southern towns, for
rugged mountains or stormy seas hem them in, with
nothing but the skies above, and the barren muir around
them to derive succour from, unless benevolence and
Christian charity respond to our advertised appeal for
largely-extended help.
I remain, sir, your obedient servant,
CHARLES FORBES, Bart.

Broom-wood, Clapham, April 14, 1855.
P.S.—I may add, in reference to a parag,manh of my
letter that, though po,sessing, as a Highland laird, up-
wards of twenty miles of turnpike road throuJi my
estates, among a thriving, well-doing tenantry, I may
be considered as being interested in keeping down
poor-rates, yet I do feel fist justitiam Ouat cceurn,
and that what is humane and Christian for England
and Ireland must be the same for the poor Scot.
Were matters so, we, the society, would have less-need
of urging the case of the poor Hebrideans and West
Highlanders. •

LATV IL TELLIGENOE.-April 16.

COURT OF EXCHEQUER.
BOYLE V. WISEMAN. •

This was an action for libel, triel at the last-assizes for
Surrey, before Mr. Baron Platt and a special jury, when
a verdict was found for the plaintiff, with 1,0001.
damages.
Serjeant Slice now moved for a rule nisi, calling upon
the plaintiff to show cause why that verlict should not
be set aside, and a new trial granted, on the grounds that
evidence was improperly received and rejected, misdirec-
tion, and excessive damages. Reasonable evidence, he
said, was given of the original letter being abroad, and
not being able to' have it produced in England. The
secondary evidence as to publication was proved by the
Rev. H. Ivers, who swore the original letter he saw be-
gan " Monsieur l'Abbe," whereas the letter he was crosg-
examined upon began simply " Monsieur." Affidavits
were now,read from Cardinal Wiseman and two others,
deposing that the' letter beginning " Monsieur" was the
only original letter, and that he did not write the letter
referred to by the Rev. H. Ivers. The original letter
the Cardinal had written was in court in the possession of
the party who bad come over and bad it in his custody.
It became a question of serious importance now—a ques-
tion far beyond any amount of damage—and that was
whether the cardinal had been guilty of a falsehood and
more, for the evidence of the Rev. H. Ivers was to the
effect that the cardinal was putting' forth as a genuine
document 'that which he knew to be a forgery. The
judge, he contended, should have received that letter.
The Lord Chief Baron—For the purpose of obtaining
a rule you need not further labour that point. -
Mr. Serjeant Shed—Upon the second point he had
wanted to show at the trial that the word " expulsB"
was not in the original letter—that it was wrongly
translated.
• A rule nisi was ultimately granted, en the ground that
the judge ought to have decided whether the letterten-
dered was the original or not, and excessive damages.
