For what objects have the rural police been
enrolled and organized at a heavy expense to the
ratepayers ? Has the force been established for
public or. private purposes—for the benefit of the com-
munity or of individuao It is right that the above
interrogatories should be promptly and distinctly
responded to by those in authority, who have some
degree of control over the local suprintendents, and
who should issue clear instruction', not only as to
what should be done, but also as to what should be
left undone. The time has come when a clear
understanding must be arrived at on this important
subject. Judging from what has already taken place
in Norfolk, it is impossible to assign any limits
which some of the gentry or inhabitants of that im-
portant county will not be prepared to overleap.
Last year we found that the police were called in to
act as assistants tosheriffe.officers, as parties to exe-
cute process or take debtors into custody, for which
they had unquestionably extraordinary facilities from
the powers confided to their charge for other and very
different purposes. Now they appear to be acting as
assistant gamekeepers, to spare the pockets of parties
who are anxious to preserve their pheasants or par-
tridges without being subject to the expense of the
necessary staff. We do not doubt that the precedent,
if established, would be generally acted on, and re-
garded as a great boon to the " territorial aristo-
cracy," although the ratepayers might regard it in a
very different point of view. Parties have already
been so unreasonable as to complain of the heavy
outlay occasioned by the detention and prosecution
of pnacher4, and also, of the maintenance of the
wives and fdmiqes of these offenders, in the various
w.rknouses. They may also object to policemen
bring employed as bailiffs or evr-n " watchers," and
,hibk that the prevention of oriole, rather than the
.leteclion of poachers, sliduld be tutu. chief occupa-
ti,,n ; and that if landed proprietors are desirous o
preserving gime, they should do so at their own ex-
pense, rather than that of the comity.

M.CARINOT has arrived in Paris.

Sir,—l beg to acquaint you that I arrived here to-
day, and that my search for Sir John Franklin has been
fruitless.
The farthest point reached during the summer voyage
un the Amin Sea, Was let. 70 deg. 30 mins. N., long.
101 deg. W., on Victoria Land, about 80 miles west of the
magnetic rule. Here we were arrested by ice for nearly a
a fortnight, and d-spairing of being able to push on far-
ther, we commenced our return on the 19th of August.
On our way to the Coppermine River, two pieces of
wood, the one oak, the other pine, were picked up.
The former appeared to be a stancheon, in the
upper end of which there had been a hole,
through which a chain had evidently passed.
The wood on one aide of the hole

We had a quick but rough passage of eleven days to
the Coppermine; left one of the boats and a quantity of
e
pemican at the Bloody Fall, ascended the stream with
the other boa:, transported it from the Kendal River to
Bear Lake in six days, and took it on as far as

To all these short-sighted individuals we heartily
commend a calm consideration of the case of the
• Qllllllll against LINCOLN and others," which was
tried last week at Nunvieh. It appeared that the
preserves at Letton, in the county of Norfolk, had
neen friquently violated. The proprietor applied for
(he aisi-tance of the constebulary, which was promptly
and freely granted. A party of 10 or 11 policemen
wrre accordingly stationed in the lodge of the head
guilt keeper, reinforced by three or four keepers, or
lEss than one-third of their number; shots were sub-
.4equently heard in the adjoining woods , and the
ambushed party sallied forth, the police occupying
the centre and the gamekeepers the wings. As
u-ual on such occasion?, a fierce conflict took place.
fhe parties on both sides were armed with deadly
weapons, and, of course, availed themselves thereof iu
the heat of the contest. The poachers. wounded the su-
perintendent severely, and one of his followers slightly;
and a policeman, la-return, fired at the poachers.
It may possibly become a question of some interest
in the investigation that will most probably be insti-
tuted into all the facts and circumstances of the case,
how the policeman obtained the gun, which cer-
tainly should not have been in his possession under
ordinary circumstances. We may, however, console
ourselves by the consideration that his possession of
a gun was not more strange than his presence on the
occasion.

An empire like that of Great Britain, the principal
importance of which, in point of territorial magnitude,
arises from the fact of the forty colonies in its po:--
aaasion, roust necessarily regard its stability as de-
pendent in a great measure upon the state of io;
maritime power and its prosperity upon the extension
of its commerce. In consequence of the force of our
conviction in these particulars, we have insisted all
along upon the impeiative demand there is upon our
administrators to foster the naval energies of England,
and we have at the same time insisted to the utmost
of our ability upon
the advisability of removing all
restrictions upon the interchange of importations and
exportations. Hence our advocacy of a standing
navy. Hence a!so the earnest part we have taken in
forwarding the establishment of free trade, and in ap-
plauding the abrogation of the navigation-laws. It
was, moreover, from our sense of the enormous re-
sponsibilities devolving upon an administrator en-
trusted with the conduct of the Colonial Department
of the Government that we beheld
with
the meddlesome
such peculiar dismay and
insensate policy adopted by Earl GREY—the policy
which has unhappily led to so much ill-feeling, blood-
shed, and confusion. With scarcely less chagrin
have we remarked the appointment as his successor
by the Earl of DERBY of a man as totally inexpe.
rienoed in the office as the Right Lion. Baronet the
Representative of Droitwich—that member of the Ca-
binet against whom in particular
was directed
the humorous sarcasm of BERNAL &BORNE, to
the effect that the new Ministry is nothing
less (as Cousin PECENIX says), "in point of fact," than
"an amalgamated Society of Chairmen of Quarter
Sessions." We have from a consideration of the
geographical position of the British territories—terri-
tories scattered in vast fragments over Europe, Asia,
Africa., and America, embracing besides this the
whole of a fifth continent, or, (as it is called in
Hibernian phraseology) a "fifth quarter" of the
Globe like Australia, with tracts of ground
stretching as far northward as the ice-bound
shores of Wellington Channel, and as far southwards
as the coast of Victoria Land—from a consideration,
We say, of the widely separated dominions of Great
Britain, we have long insisted upon the urgency of
carrying out some grand scheme of settlement and
colonization, with a view to the cultivation cf the
earth in directions hitherto almost unexplored. Re-
cently the attention of the community has been di-
than customary interest to the re-
rected wish more
sources lying dormant in the soil of Australasia,
by reason of the discovery of gold in the districts of
the Mulwarre Ponds and Lake Bathurst. Elsewhere
facts have come to light such as have leisured us
only the more of the advisability of affording our
surplus population the advantage of proceeding from
these overcrowded islands to other localities more
capable of yielding them subsistence and of opening
up opportunities for the acquisition
of wealth.

benefits in view, there is one to which we were the

The following anecdote in reference to M. EMILE
DE GIRARDIN will be perused with interest. It is
thus mentioned by the Emancipation of Brussels :
"M. EMILE DE GIRARDIN is on the point of return-
ing to France. It may be remembered that his
mother-in-law, Madame SOPHIA GAY, died at the be-
ginning
of this month. A short time after that
event, M. DE GIRARDIN was informed by one of his
friends that the PRESIDENT of the Republic, consider-
ing that his presence might be useful to his family,
was disposed to allow him to return if he made a
direct request to that effect. On hearing this, M. DE
GIRARDIN wrote from Brussels a few days since a
letter to the following effect Monsieur le Punt-
DENT,—A decree of the month of January banished
me from France. Considerations of propriety render
my presence in Paris necessary at this moment. I
beg you, therefore, to suspend the decree which has
condemned me to exile.—Accept my salutations, &c.'
In reply to this letter M. EMILE DB GIRARDIN re-
ceived his passport for Paris."
M. CLEMENT THOMAS has been ordered to leave
France within eight days.

The result was what might have been
anticipated, the police acted gallantly and
bravely, as they do on every occasion ;
for whatever may be their errors, cowardice cannot
be laid to their charge. The trespassers were put to
flight and captured, some, with red hands, in the
wood, others while flying across the country, and a
few at their own homes the following day. The
leader of the police was severely, and one of his fol-
lowers, slightly wounded ; while six young men, just
arriving at manhood, four of number being under
21 years of age, were sentenced to punishments
varying from two years' imprisonment to transporta-
tion for ten years. Another fearful illustration has
theleev iengt6h hour, thus been afforded of the working of the game-laws,
the remnant of the old sanguinary forest code. We

the conflict by a letter which recently appeared
in a morning contemporary, impeaching the title of
his principal, Colonel FREMONT, to the royalties
of the binds of which he is in • the actual en-

in existence, or about to be established. We may safely
leave the matter in the hands of Dr. HOFFMAN, who
has fully disposed of all the matters referred to by
his anonymous correspondent. He seeks no conceal-
ment, but comes forward fairly, boldly, and above
board, not only pledging
his unimpeachable charac-
ter to the accuracy of his
,assertions, but bringing
forward the strongest corroboration in the shape of
documentary evidence. This unquestionably lends
additional weight to the statement of the

Customs' revenue in the United Kingdom from 1842 to
1851, both inclusive:—ln 1842 they were 1,254 5901.;
1843, 1,254,1361.; 1844 1,264 9961.; 1845, 1,279 944/ ;
1846. 1 264 273/ ; 1847. 1,304 1731.; 1848, 1,312,710/4
1849, 1,301,7271.; 1850, 1,283,805/.; and in 1851,
1,290,7561.
From a return of the total amount of revenue re-
ceived in the United Kingdom in the years 1850 and
1851 for stamp duties on legacies, probates, aciministra
tions, &c., we find that in 1850 the revenue derived from
legacies in Great Britain was 1,255,762/. 78. 9d., and in
Ireland it was 55 6331. 7s. 6d.; on probates, administra-
tions, and testamentary inventories the sum amounted
to 962,453/. 14s. 6d. in Great Britain, and 68 948/, 10s.
in Ireland. In 1851, 1,255,713!. 193. Id. was collected
on legacies in Great Britain, and 59.5661. 113.. 4d. in
i
Ireland; and on probates, admini.trations, &c., a Great
Britain, the revenue amounted to 997,3261. Is. 6d.; and in
Ireland, 66 075/.
In consequence of a strong remonstrance made to the
American Government by our Minister at Washington,
Mr. Crampton, at the instance of the Canadian Govern-
ment, against the Treasury circular of the I.2th Novem-
ber last, which was construed to require the officers of
the United States Customs to assess the duties on Euro-
pean goods imported into the United States, vier the St.
Lawrence, according to the value in Canada instead of
that in Europe, a new circular has been issued explana-
tory of that of the 12th November. Under the new in-
structions, the duties will be calcolsted according to the
European invoice on all goods bond fide imported into the
United States, via the St. Lawrence through Canada,
and which have nut entered into the stock of Canada.
This is all that can reasonably be asked, and is, in fact,
an assimilation of the practice of the United States to
that which has been in force in Canada fur some time
back.
The following, on the debt of Yen, zuela, is from the
Committee of Spanish American Bondholders :
" The Committee of Spanish American Bondholders
have received advices from Mr. Lord, at La Guayra, to
the 10th ult., in which he informs them that the Congress
of Vent zuela had assembled and that the agreement
concluded by the Executive Governmen with the bond-
holders, for the arrangement of the arrears of interest
on the foreign debt, would come before Parliament for
ratification. The Sinister of Finance, in his report
just presented to Congress, and in which is included a
copy of the agreement, states that • the 19 500/ already
remitted to London has been placed at the divesal of
the provisional agency for the exclusive purpose of
paying the interest on the foreign debt, and that
the Government, desiring to make some arrangement
for this debt, which was such burdea upon the produc-
tive resources and prosperity of the country, had con-
cluded an agreement with Mr. Lord.' The Minister
concluded thus This agreement has been unani-
mously accepted by the bondholders, at their meeting
of 6th November last, and it now only remains fur
Congress to ratify the same by its s .action.
" Regarding rt mittinces fur the dividend due on the
Ist 01 October last, and that which falls due on the Ist
of next month, Mr. Lord writes:—' 1 have, as tegards
remittances, made application to Messrs. Bmltoii, Pal-
let, and Co., who have been good enough to inform me,
that " Mr. Gellineau had desired all the extraordinary
contribution to remitted to London as fast as it comes
in, and if the amount requisite to complete the October
dividend dues not go by this packet it will certainly all
go by the next, fur the Custom-houses commenced last
month to pay over their receipts from this tax with some
regularity."'
Mr. Lord transmits to the committee the Message of
the President to the Congress, from which the following
is an extract:—

.6 ' The revenues of the State have this year been
greater than those of previous years, as was to be expected.
Pence, whose very name is gladness, from its association
with the idea of plenty, tranquillity, and comforts, has
thrown fresh vigour into commerce, raised the spirit cf
enterprise, and thereby contributed, in an extraordinary
degree to an increase in the general receipts of the
Treasury. All the expenditure for the public service
has been duly met; the arrears caused by the disasters
of civil strife in 1848 and 1849 have been reduced; the
interest of the Domestic Debt, which had been suspended
since 1847. has been paid; and even the dividends tie the
Foreign Debt, which had not been remitted to London
for many years past, are now is a course of remittance,
which has had the natural effect of raising our credit in
Europe. The present Administration has used its ut•
most endeavours, as it will always do, religiously to fulfil
the national engagements, persuaded as it is that credit
springs out of confidence, and that the latter is wholly
derived from the fidelity with which objects are ful-
filled that have one, been prom Led. It is an inestimable
blessing for al good citiz-ns that Heaven should have so
ordained it that credit sneuld be dependent upon honesty,
even as happiness is upon virtue.'"
