WHAT'S THE CRITERION?
Of a gentleman's business skill, or a tradesman's capa-
bilities ? The former to comprehend where quality exists, and the
latter to provide it. The criterion with a gentleman is his judgment of
where he has been well served in his former purchases ; the trades •
Mau, that he perfectly understands what quality is, and where it can
be found, with a determination to provide it. The unquestionable
experience of E. MOSES and SON in the clothing and general out-
fitting business gives them a complete qualification to decide on the
quality of every article in which they profess to trade. Quality !
E. MOSES and SON consider as the criterion of price. No article
can he cheap unless it be good. They are anxious their patrons
should regard the Strength, Fineness, Colour, and Workmanship of
their dress, as much as the advantages in its price being much lower
than charged elsewhere. They are confident in the result of such an
examination, and equally sure the immen.e patronage bestowed on
their establishments in the City and country is the result of Superior
Quality, as well as low prices. Quality ! is not limited by E.
MOSES and SON to any single class of goods, but is applicable to
the whole of their trade ; whether garments they have the honour
to
make in compliance with the commands of the nobility, clergy,
and
gentry, or the endless description of goods tr ey have the pleasure

__'RIAL OF FRENCH INSURGENTS.
A Court Martial, sitting at Clamecy, department of the
Nievre, commenced on Saturday the trial of the persons
accused of having taken part in the insurrection which
broke out in that town on the occasion of the events of
December. Five of the leaders in the insurrection, who
are in flight, were tried by default. Their names
were Gannier, a coffee-house keeper; Meunier,
his brother-in-law; Rousseau, an avoue; Lech-
eyrie, physician; Aizieres, labourer. The in-
dictment set forth that for some time before
Clamecy had been infected with bad doctrines, and the
partisans of disorder had resolved to effect a rising in 1852.
But when the act of the 2d December took place, they
prepared for action, and, when they received news of the
events in Paris, they assembled in arms in the Fanbourg
de BethliSece. They then marched on the gaol and delivered
forty political prisoners, broke into the church and rung
the tocsin. A number of armed men remained in the
belfry to fire on the troops on guard at the Mairie,
which was about to be attacked. A patrol of gen-
darmes having come up they fired on it ; one
gendarme was killed, another was mortally and a
third severely wounded. The insurgents afterwards
attacked the Mairie. A schoolmaster, who happened
to be standing at the door, was killed; a respectable
inhabitant, an advocate named Mulon, who came up with
a lady leaning on his arm, was also killed. The insur•
gents at length got possession of the Mairie. Mean-
time other bands went into different public-houses,
and remained there all night waiting for rein-
forcements from the adjacent villages. In the
course of a few hours armed bands poured in from
Corvol, Billy, Entraim, Dornecy, Oisy, Surgy, and
Pou•seaux. At the last mentioned place the band killed
an old man of eighty named Bonneau. At Clamecy bar-
ricades were thrown up, and the chiefs of the insurgents
issued proclamations to excite the zeal of their bands.
Notwithstanding this, many of their partisans becoming
alarmed attempted to leave them, but were prevented;
those who took to flight were fired on. A group of peasants
who reared was shot at; one man was killed, and another
to severely wounded that he had to have his leg amputated.
A gendarme, named Badin, was killed under circum-
stances of great brutality. For three du) s Clamecy
was in the bands of the insurgents. They extorted a
sum of 5,000 f. from the receiver of taxes, and sent out
patrols in the streets, terrifying the inhabitants. They
forced fathers of families to join them, and in-
dulged in gross excesses. At length the insur-
gents abandoned the town. The indictment con-
cluded be alleging that the five accused
had taken
a leading part in these_ events.
_ The Court declared the
crime of insurrection fully proved, and condemned the
accused to transportion.—T wo men, named Sabatier and
1 Guilleminot, were tried for having killed M. Mulon, the
advocate. It w proved as the lady who ac-
companied him, and by by
other witnesses, that he
was suddenly surrounded by a number of inns-
g
ents• and stabbed in the back with a car-
penter's
tool tool. The two prisoners were nearest to him,
and the had previously been seen in the hands of
both. The fatal b:o e, it seemed was actually struck by

After a fortnight's sickness she appeared to expire,
and her parents, as a relief to their sorrow, left the
house, leaving two of the girl's aunts to superintend
the funeral. As the famity belonged to the Reformed
religion, it was resolved, in compliance with the
usual custom, to wash the body before placing it
in the shroud. Whilst the water was warming, one
of the aunts proposed that it should be made quite hot,
and that part of the foot of the deceased should be
placed in it. This was done, and the two females, to
their surprise, fancied that they heard a slight sigh.
They thereupon began to employ friction on different
parts of the body, and succeeded in restoring the child
to life. The girl continued to enjoy good health
until recently, when she was attacked with brain
fever, and, after suffering for some time, appeared to
die. A physician declared her dead and signed a cer-
tificate for the interment. One of
the aunts watched
the body in company with a nurse. The aunt having
stated in the course of conversation the singular cir-
cumstance that had previously occurred, the nurse
recommended that the proof of hot water should be
again tried. The leg of the girl was accordingly
plunged into hot water. This produced a similar
result, and the girl recovered."

A VOICE FROM THE RAYKS..
TO THE EDITOR OF THE TINES.
Sir,—Although a poor man, I am happy to- say r
enjoy opportunities of perusing your paper almost as
see- as it is printed. I must say that lam struck
with the various schemes and plans which the lEMOnit
of an outbreak with Louis Napoleon seems to have'
called into life. In my bumble opinion, m any of
them have originated with officers, who may be brave
and gallant gentlemen, but certainly know but little
of the main arm of defence—l mean the private aol-
diers. A good leader is an excellent thing, but what is
he without sufficient troops? Ide not wish to under-
value anyone, but with all due submission, I think that,
as well as levying fresh troops, pains should be taken
with those we already have. Sir, lem a private soldier
in the 4th division of Marines, and, as I take it, all foot
soldiers are treated in the same manner. I will, in as
few words as possible, state my own individual case.
merely premising there are some hundreds in the divi-
sion in the same state, and, for aught I know, it ms be
the case in all regiments under the Crown.
Well, Sir, I commence my career with the shilling of
the recruiting sergeant, and after undergoing the usual
allowance of bullying from all ranks4rom a lance-corporal
up to an adjutant, and hearing the Queen's English muti-
lated by certain drill sergeants, who fancy that the chief
part of their duty consists in making a noise, I
am at length " passed for duty"—that is, I
have been taught to keep my head up, to
step in time, very good things in their
way. I have a stiff stock put round my throat, almost
producing strangulation; I am imprisoned in a tight-
fitting coat; I have a thing that I am told is a musket
put into my hand; and there is no doubt but if I keep
my boots marked, my buckles and belts properly clean,
spend all my pay in buying new trousers and canteen
covers, and keeping a very awkwardly constructed
knapsackinto nicely va
fi rnished, not forgetting to
march eld, when required, with a
strictly regulated pace, I shall be a credit
to the country and become a great warrior. So far so
good.
But the wise gentlemen who have taken such
pains to teach me to do everything in a certain number
of motions and in strict time, have quite forgotten to
explain to me the uses of the weapon I am armed
with. I have no means of knowing the range of my
musket ; I do not know whether it oarries its ball
high or low; whether it diverges to the right or left.
I do not know the weight or measure of a charge of
powder, should
ready-madessarariettes -fail. and could -
scarcely cast a ball even if I had a mould. Now, Sir, it •
is all very well for me to assist my comrades to deliver
a volley in excellent time. I can load and fire on the
same principle as a parrot learns A, B, C, but I
want some instruction in the properties of the weapon.
If I were placed in a situation (among the Ka-
firs, for instance) where every shot ought to be
of service, I might as well be armed with a tobacco
pipe. I know that I must fire at an object, but
I also ought to be able to strike it; but as I am at pre-
sent taught I should not know whether an en.my were
within my reach or not, nor how to aim with a rea-
sonable chance of hitting him. If I were to apply to
the drill sergeant for any information of this kind, he
would most probably call it 'pertinence," and put me
in the guardroom; or, perhaps, say, " It's no business
of yourn; I likes to see a man do wet he's told, and ask
no questions."
My remarks will apply just as well to naval actions,
for certainly regular volleys would be of little avail
against the bulkheads of a ship; all the service must be
done by individual shots and independent firing. Now,
Sir, there are hundreds of my comrades as ignorant as
I am of the uses and properties of a musket, and
perhaps many thousands in the service are
in the same predicament. With all due de-
ference, do you not think that, instead of worrying
and harassing men with such trifling non-essentials as
canteen covers, buckles, &c., it would be more to the
credit of our rulers were proper means taken to render
the men efficient by thoroughly explaining and pointing
out the uses of the weapons they are armed with, and
allowing every man to practise individaally and learn
the trim of the article he has to defend his life with?
I hope you will pardon all errors of style and indif-
ferent penmanship, and perhaps you may find some
means of introducing this subject to the public notice.
I am, Sir, yours, &c.,
