T 0 the MONTH of MAT,
Shining, smiling, flowery May,
Listen to ray humble lay,
Fondly doth my eye discern
Tokens of thy glad return ;
Now arc nature's prospects seen,
Decked with newly spreading green :
All is charming, all is gay,
Shining, smiling, flowery May.
Happy mouth ! thy welcome reign,
With its ever pleasing train,
Scatters pleasures here and there,
Pleasures which the many share;
Even in the crowded town,
Thousands hail thy blooming crown,
And to thee their honours pay.

While thy trees aid flowers assume
New attire on leaf and bloom,
We prepare a change of dress,
Suited to thy loveliness.

Filled with things in every part,
Wen by MOSES' choice display,
Shini,g, smiling, flowery May.

To this busy trading scene ;
And with pleasure did I scan
Dress designed on such a plan.
Trowsers, Coats, and Waistcoats, too,
Really beautiful to view,
Here were bought for little pay,
Shining, smiling, flowery May.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
MALTA, APRIL IG.—The departure of the Locust
steamer for Genoa this morning enables me. to an-
nounce the arrival of her Majesty's ship lliberma, with
Sir William Parker's flag flying, of the Caledonia

ral's flag, on the departure of the Hibernia, expected
to leave in about ten days, and of the brig Frolic,
from Beyrout, on Saturday last.
The Spartan is also expected from Venice in tt few
days.
There is a report here of a serious quarrel at

Lieutenant George -Williamson (1807) has received
the out- pension of Greenwich, in lieu of Commander
Farrant. We have before noticed the claims of the

Semaphore veteran, and are glad that the First Lord
has admitted them by his benevolent act.
The Arrogant, 46, auxiliary screw steam-frigate,
Captain H. Fitzroy, was paid wages in advance yes-
terday, and took on board her powder and shells. This
morning, at half-past ten o'clock, she got under weigh,
under canvass alone ; but, the wind being very light
and variable, sufficient way could not be obtained on
her to give her steerage. She was consequently
obliged to be anchored, about a quarter past eleven
o'clock, close to the Horse-shoal, while the steam was
got up, the funnel hove up, and the screw shipped,
when she was again got under weigh, under steam
only, but with her topsails loose and sheeted home.
This was about one o'clock, P.sc. After steaming outside
the [(nab-light, a breeze having sprung up, she made
sail and damped up steam. She was lost sight of
soon after five o'clock, standing to the southward,
with a fine breeze, close hauled on the starboard tack,

for Cork.
The Confiance steam-tug vessel arrived to-day from
Plymouth, with supernumeraries.

away in severe weather experienced in the Atlantic
on Good Friday, has a jurymast which was rigged
in the following manner :—The original mast broke
about seven feet from the deck, and in the after part
of the stump a deep groove was cut to receive the
temporary spar, a spare topsail yard, 36 feet long.

another block at the head of the spar to the starboard
cathead, where it was fastened. This readily brought
the spar upright, in which position its head was fixed
to the dead-eyes on either side by runners, thus con-
verted into shrouds, and its foot by three bands of
five-eighth chain firmly wedged to the stump of the
foremast. The canvass hoisted on the juryrnast was
a lower studdingsail rigged on a yard made of a top-
gallant studdingsail boom, worked with tacks and
sheets in the usual way. On the mainmasts they
carried a square mainsail and a trysail, taking a
double reef in the latter, and easing it up when the
wind blew fresh. The Rhodes was laden with nine
keels (about 200 tons)
of coal, and 30 tons of rail-
way tram iron, for St. John's, New Brunswick.
During the first gale she lost her bowsprit, foremast,
and mainmast ; had her decks stove, knightheads
started, and became leaky. In this shattered condi-
tion, with her temporary mast and insufficient canvass,
she sailed through a heavy sea an indirect course,
from .50.33 north and 23.25 west, on the 6th instant,
to the port of Plymouth, on the 24th, of more than a
thousand miles.
Wind, S.S.W., strong breeze.

PORTSMOUTH, MONDAY.--The Myrtle steam-tender,

Another frightful accident occurred port at this
to-
day. As a ,party of men in the employ of Mr.
Busbby, the contractor for the erection of the joint
terminus of the London and Brighton and London
and South-Western Railways at Landport, were en-
gaged in pulling down a house standing on the site
of the intended structure, they excavated too much of
the foundation of a wall of the tenement before they
tried to take it down; consequently, although warned
of the impropriety of their proceedings by their fellow-
workmen, one of whom told them not to peck any more
as he went down the ladder, they went on with the work,
when on touching the wall to throw it outwards it took
an opposite impetus, and fell inwards, burying four men
in the ruins of the lower part of the house. Their names
are Connor, a labourer; Simms, a bricklayer; White, a
stonemason; and Harwood, a labourer. The accident
took place at about a quarter to seven o'clock this morn-
ing. The poor creatures were dug out of the ruins in
about a quarter of an hour, and speedily conveyed to
the Portsmouth, Portsea,, and Gosport Hospital, where
their respective cases met with the promptest attention;
the two first named, however, sustained such frightul
injuries in such a multiplicity of ways, that life was
despaired of from the first. The wall was on the second
floor of the building. Harwood's hip was dislocated.

Hol-
stein brig 'Limps, Captain Groot, which brought passen-
ger from Laguna Captain Wortermann, late of the brig
Fortuna. The circumstances connected with the loss of
this vessel must prove interesting to toasters of ships
bound to Mexico and California, tor which coasts so
many charters are now taking up. The following is
translated from an authentic account published in 1./
Monitor, at Mexico, Feb. 3:—
" On the 20th of October last the German brigantine
Fortuna was wrecked on the coast of the island of Santa
Maria, between the rivers of El Fuerte and Sinaloa.
Through the efforts of the supercargo, captain, and crew
a great part of the cargo was saved; but the vessel was en-
tirely lost. The cargo was bound to Guyamas, the nearest
port whence assistance could be obtained; and at the
instance of the supercargo the Government of Guyamas
immediately sent away the captain of the brigatine
llawavan Carlota with his vessel and a few large boats,
which returned with a portion of the cargo on the 28th
of November. They started again on the 2d of Decem-
ber, and collected the greater part of the remainder. On
the 31st of December, at eight in the evening, the mate
received a communication ashore from the Administrator
of Revenues of El Fuerte, Don Francisco Chavez; and
at half-past eight, before the mate could deliver the
message on board to the captain, or that they could con-
sult together on the subject, a party of cavalry and in-
tautry, consisting of forty men, armed with carbines
and lances, fell upon the people ashore when quietly
taking their supper, fired at and pursued them into the
sea, which cffered the only refuge from this murderous
attack. Three men were killed, viz., the principal
stevador of the port, Thomaso Deano; the carpenter
of the Fortuna, Frederica Trimpf ; and one of her
crew, Juan Carteus; and two wounded—an Indian named
Capeto and Manuel Jellerias. The aasassins then
took possession of the few things that remained ashore,
and the vessel set sail the next day, the 14th of Decem-
ber, for Guyamas, where a protest was drawn up at the
request of Senor Don Juan A. Robinson, United States'
Consul, and certified copies thereof delivered to the Go-
vernment of Sinaloa and to the General of Division, Don
Juan Pablo Anoya, who, it is hoped, for the honour of
the Mexican nation, will speedily discover and bring to
justice the perpetrators of these atrocious acts."
The Fortuna's cargo, with which she left Valparaiso
on the 26th August, consisted of wino, brandy, cocoa,
and dry goods. The wind was S.S.W. when she went
ashore, and Captain Wortermann attributes her loss to
the incorrectness of his chart, an English publication.
After the protest was noticed the Captain went to Ma-
saltan, thence to San Bias, where he crossed the conti-
tinent to Vera Cruz, and then took passage in a ship to
Laguna.
The Nautilus three-masted iron steamer, Captain Par-
son, came in here this morning for water. She has been
hired by the German Government, through the Prus-
sian Consul-General in London, to lie off this port and
give warning to all German merchants vessels entering
the Channel of the renewal of hostilities by the Danish
Government.
Wind southerly, light breeze, and fine weather.
Woormicir, MAY I.—The Elfin steam-vessel came
round to Woolwich from Chatham on Saturday, and
was tried up and down the river several times. She
left Woolwich again this morning for Portsmouth, to be
employed as a dispatch boat betwixt that port and
the Isle of White, under the charge of Mr. liallisston,
who is to command her.
The Buzzard steam-yacht, built at Pembroke, arrived
at Woolwich yesterday, having been brought round to
the river to be fitted with her engines.
The Magicienne steam-vessel was taken under the
shears to-day to have her jury masts taken out, pre-
paratory to her being taken to Deptford to be fitted with
her engines by Messrs. Penn.
The Gladiator steam-frigate is under the shears in the
basin, to have her guns and gun carriages put on board,
and will soon be ready for sea.

MRS. TROLLOPE'S NEW NOVEL.—TILE LOT-
TERY OF MARRIAGE.—Marriage, being,' the great end
and aim of feminine existence, naturally forms a promi-
nent feature in the story of every het oine, but our
great artist in pen and ink, Mrs. Trollop ?, has given it,
in her new work, the importance it deserves, by making
it a subject instead of a feature. She cleverly, produces
it in every light in which it can be exhibited, a nd brings
forward its objects, advantages, and results with a
graphic force that is no less instructive than amu: ing. In
" The Lottery of Marriage" Mrs. Trollopo has pr,pcluced
a picture of our social system full of new and st.iking
portraits, in a narrative that for felicity of construction,
and originality of idea, equals the most successful oF her
former efforts.--Evening paper.

It has pleased Mr. John O'Connell, in the plenitude
of his wisdom, to move that Mr. John Joseph Lawson,
the printer of " a newspaper called the Times," be ar
raigned at the bar of the House of Commons for breach
of privilege. Mr. Lewson's alleged guilt consists in the
fact that Mr. John O'Connell's speeches are riot reported
at length in the columns of the journal in question.
Now, it appears to us that, considering the language of
the sessional orders with regard to the publication of the
reports of debates, Mr. John O'Connell's mode of seek-
ing redress is of the most Hibernian description. He
accuses us of yielding too implicit an obedience to the
sessional orders as far as be is concerned. What if we
should not report him at all? The world would not be
much the loser; the Times would be infinitely the
gainer; and the orders of the House of Commons would
es) implicitly obeyed. Thus all parties would be satis-
fied. The sessional order in question is one of those
ridiculous anomalies which are so peculiarly suited to
the meridian of dear Old England. The greatest
pains are taken to construct galleries for the accom-
modation of the reporters of the various newspapers.
The presence of this body of gentlemen is just as ne-
cessary, to the proceedings of the House as that of Mr.
Speaker; nay, we doubt if the absence of even that
learned functionary would be so great a loss as that of
the reporters. But more thiin this, in the Upper House,
but the other day, an animated conversation occurred,
in which more than one Noble Lord complained of the
false system of acoustics on which the House had been
constructed. In many cases it is an impossibility for the
reporters to record the proceedings of the Upper House,
in consequence of this defect of construction, and the
Peers had the good sense to notice and regret the defi-
cient nature of the accommodation afforded to the regis-
trars of their proceedings. Even in the Lower House
we recollect many occasions on which the presence of
the reporters was referred to in the course of the de-
bate, and the integrity and ability of their reports
mentioned in terms of the highest commendation.
We remember, in particular, one passage from the
speech of an Irish Member during the debate on the
income-tax in 1845; but that Irish Member was a very
different sort of personage from Mr. John O'Connell.
" Can; there be a greater injustice," said Mr. Shed,
" than to tax in the same proportion the First Lord of
the Treasury and the gentlemen who report his speech
on the income-tax in the gallery of this House?" Thus
a

h A r
tempted
I. Sheil than to the body of
which he is speaking. " There are men," continued he,
"in that gallery of liberal edacation, and of minds point;
a t'
s M
em-
bellished with every literary adornment, who by great
labour, by great wear and tear of body and mind, acquire
an income which falls within the range of the tax, al-
though it is far from being commensurate with the abi-
lity or the usefulness of a class to which some of the first
men in England have belonged." So, then, it seems at
times the sessional order is clean forgotten, and justice
is sometimes rendered even on the floor of the House to
the unwearied industry, to the nice discrimination, and to
the groat judgment with which the corps of Parliamentary
reporters discharge their duties to the House and to the
public. Consider for a moment what wou!cl be the effect
if the system of reporting suggested by the modesty of
Mr. John O'Connell were once adopted. We should
ourselves be curious to ascertain what is the percentage
of the readers of the Times who do more than read over
the Parliamentary summary, as a guide to the speeches
in which they are each especially interested. 50f course,
those of the foremost men in the House upon noticeable
occasions are read and re-read. We are not, of course,
speaking of thes3 exceptional cases, but of the average
stock of Parliamentary debates. With the best inten-
tions and the most superstitious reverence for the wis-
dom of the knights and burgesses of England, it cannot
but be so. This is a busy country. We can tell
Mr. John O'Connell, who probably never troubles him-
self to read any speeches but his own, that to follow the
discussions of the two Houses, from their meeting to
their prorogation, is in itself a laborious and a nut very
agreeable pursuit. As it is, matters are bad enough,
but, were the system of stereotyping senatorial breath
once adopted, the result would be that the debates in
Parliament would never be read by any individual in his
right mind throughout the length and breadth of Eng-
land. This is no idle hypothesis, no vain assumption
on our part. In Germany Mr. John O'Connell's system
has been adopted, and the result has been what we have
described. It falls, perhaps, more in our way than in
that of most persons to have such matters brought under
our notice. We have heard many complaints from
Germans of the evil arising from the method adopted
in their assemblies of giving the speeches of mem-
bers in extenso, without any exercise of discrimina-
tion. In England we give suet} prominence to a topic
of debate us it deserves, and a Member is reported ac-
cording to the value of the opinions he delivers. We
do not profess to satisfy the vanity of individuals, but to
give, within such limits as our space permits, a faithful
record of all that is of public interest. or value in the
proceedings of Parliament. If Mr. John O'Connell is
not a wise man, nor an eloquent :nail, nor a discreet man,
that is no fault of ours. Let him say things worthy of
being recorded, and we will record them; but we cannot
undertake to sacrifice a column of much more valuable
matter in order to find room for a corresponding quantity
of crambe repttita upon Irish I,lThirs. The public 11,,s
been favoured with all Mr. John O'Connell's tevourite
arguments many hundreds of times already, and has pro-
nounced upon them no dubious sentence of rejection and
disregard. Why should our columns be wade the me-
dium of inflicting upon the empire a repetition of matter
to which all men have agreed to turn a deaf ear for the
future ? As far as regards Irish debates generally,
we are in the recollectien of the readers of the .7 intes
if what Mr.
,John O'Connell stated esterday in the
House of Commons be or be not the fact. " The most

trivial English debate," said he, " upon the most pass-
ing subject of the day was faithfully reported; but, let
a subject of the deepest interest to the people of Ireland
be brought forward, and they found the debate slurred
over, and the speeches of Members mangled or misre-
presented." The phrase of
"construing through a
brick wall" used to be applied in our younger days to
the persevering German commentators who endeavoured
to extract sense out of the disjointed choruses of such
plays as the Choephore of JEschylus, nor does Mr.
John O'Connell shrink from difficulties of a like nature.
Although the files of the Timer for the last half-cen-
tury are thus in flat contradiction of his ridiculous asser-
tion, he does not hesitate for one moment. We will make
him a safe pledge. Whenever he shall utter matter
worthy of record ho shall never have reason to com-
plain of being left unreported. Meanwhile, he would not
do amiss to reflect upon an unusually sagacious remark
dropped by himself in the course of his indignant appeal
to the House,—" It might be said that he thought too
much of hiraself and what he said." We have no just
cause of complaint against the tone adopted by the other
speakers in the course of the discussion, with one single
exception. Mr. G. Berkeley was so cruel as to suggest
that Mr. John O'Connell should for the future send his
speeches to us instead of making them in the House.
Now, this shifting of painful burdens upon the shoulders
of other men who have done nothing to merit the in-
fliction is scarcely evidence of a generous mind. When
Mr. G. Berkeley proposes to favour us with literal
transcripts of the orations in question, instead of listening
to them in his own proper person, we would remind him
of Baillie Nicol Jarvie's exposition of the golden rule of
practical ethics :—Let A do to B as he would have B
do to him, and the product will be universal felicity.—
