be recollected that M. Feuillidc wrote soma articles agairst %
the Pressc, which drew forth very severe observations upon,.
hias from M. de Girardin. These gentlemen, after hat'-
in; recapitulated the wrongs imputed by M. Fpuillide to
M. de Gbrardin, gave into the hands of Messrs. Excellinans
and Delo-t a challenge to which the lien. Generals re-
plied that alter the said rencontre between Messrs. Carrel
and de Girardan, in which everything had been conducted
so much to the ho7eur of both partieA, they were convinced
that M. de Girardin was hound to refuse every provoca-
tion that might originate in, or be connected with, that
quarrel. After so explicit a declaration on the part of two
veterans, who hitherto had not been in relation with M.
de Girardin, the friends of M. Feuillide considered their
mission fulfilled. Public opinion, the surest arbiter in such
matters, will know how to appreciate the feelings and con-
duct of both parties."

HATS ON T.—" On Thursday," writes the }fon.
Member for Hull, " we had the entertainment of onr.:, nay
two, Free Conferences with the Lords ; things interesting,
like the flowering Aloes from time to time advertis,ed in the
newspapers, principally as having appeared only once in a
hundred years. The last free conference is understood to have
been in 1740 ; and so free it was, that ela...er the Lords or
Commons drew their swords upon the other, whereunon an
order ensued, that at any future conference the Sir Charles
Grandisons of the day should leave their toasting irons in
another room., The first of our two conferences was consi-
dered a dull affair; as nothing took place but an interchange
of reading lessons. But the second was enlivened by positive
speeches, delivered sotto voce with great judgment and dis-
cretion by the various champions on both sides in turn, till
the whole list was nearly exhausted. If ' lords arc lordliest
in their wine,' it is well they come to a conference before
they have well drunk ; for as it is, their ideas of good man-
ners arc, that they arc to plant themselves on a scat with their
hats on, wh:le the 'rude and rascal Commons,' as the Church
i.f England kindly expresses it in her Homilies, are to stand
before them bare-headed till they sink to the ground with fa-
tigue. For my own part, happening to have had more exercise
than ordinary in the course of the day, I sat down on the floor
from pure weariness, as did several other Members ; and close
beside me sat a Master in Chancery in his gown, who to di-
minish the burlesque had taken off his wig-, and held it in his
hand. I have been present at many conferences with semi-,
barbarous chieftains : but never saw their visitors greeted with
a reception so hoggish. The Tory newspapers are scandfLised
because some of the Commons were so uncivil es to put on
their hats; but they forget to state, that there was beiore them
a line of men, no way visibly of the same flesh. and blood
with themselves, carefully ensconsed in hats of t,lie dimensions
of' a lord. mayor's footman's, and seated with an easy dignity like that of King Arthur in ' Tom.Thomb,, which they cer-
tainly would not have assume". if they had found themselves
in their own pousekeeper's room. But this is the aristocrati-
cal part of our Constihttion ; and the King can mice any man
to the dignity of toting unhandsomely before his fellows. On,
a former oceas;_on, as I informed you, the Lords lapsed into
decorum. But a council has been held upon the matter, and
they have determined to re-lapse since."
DISCOVERY OF THE BODY OF MR. IMESON.--
On Thursday evening last the body of a man was diPeovered
in a furze-brake below Cock Wood, near Starcross. The re-
mains had on the outer garments and a dark c).:rak ; a cane
was found lying at the side, and the body arpeared to have
been a long time in this situation. It will '...ie in the recollec-
tion of our readers that about fifteen marlin ago Mr. Imeson,
who had formerly seen better days, but was then keeping a
tobacco and snuff' shop in thin city disappeared, and notwith-
standing every search was made at the time, no tidings what-
ever of what had become of him could be procured, and it
was supposed by his family, (a wife and two children whom he
left, and who bow keep the shop alluded to) that he was gone
to America. On the news reaching this city that the body of
a man had been found, it immediately suggested itself to some
parties who were aware of the disappearance of the deceased,
that it might prove to be him ; accordingly a party went
down, and having examined it, became fully convinced it was
the body of the unfortunate man. Mrs. 'meson has since re-
cognised the clothes, the cloak, his boots, and the cane which
he was in the habit of using, and which he took with him when be was first missed. It is supposed that he must have
repaired to the spot where he was found, and taken laudanum,
it having been traced at the time that he had purchased some
a few hours only before leaving Exeter. From the length of
time the . body had been exposed it was utterly impossible to
recognise a single feature, it having become a complete ske-
leton, and presenting, as may be imagined, a wort deplorable
spectacle. An inquest was held at Starcross an Saturday, on
the body, and a verdict found in accordance with the circum-
stances above stated. The remains of •trie unfortunate man
were buried at Starcross on Saturday..— Western Luminary,
It is our melancholy task t', announce, on the 3rd
of July, at Alexandria, the; death of Galloway Bey, univer-

London.
gies n te ser
This your., man devoted his great talents and ener-
of the Paella of Egypt, as his chief engi-
neer, i
fork the Ir vice,
.st twelve years, and as a reward for these ser
vices, two years ago, he received the above distinction, which,
when viewed as conferred on a Frank, and so young a man,
was considered a high mark of esteem, which he so richly de-
served, not only for his professional talents, but for his ex-
treme kindness, generosity, and urbanity of character. He
only left England in February last, for the purpose of. ~..arr)ing
into effect the gigantic work of directing the execution of the
railroad from Cairo to Suez, for which he came to this coun-
try to make all the arrangements, on behalf of the Pacha,
with his father and brothers. It is stated that his decease was
caused by a liver complaint occasioned by the climate, which,
upon a post mortem examination, was fully confirmed. We
feel that we and the public owe a debt of gratitude to the me-
mory of snob men as Galloway Bey, who advance the science
a: -.Li enlightened views of England in such countries as Egypt
was ; and we are sure his family must feel some consolation in knowing that he had rendered such services to so many of his fellow creatures. His remains were temporarily interred at
Alexandria, and the whole respectable population of that city
may be said to have attended to pay their last tribute of regard.
The Pacha, and his minister. Beyhas Bey, in their coodolence
to the family, have expressed that the Bey's services for their
country could never be forgotten by them. We are happy to
learn that the railroad will sill be carried into effect, and that
the executing of it will. how devolve upon the Bey's brothers,
two of whoal.are in Alexandria. The Bey's illness has beers
the cause why this work has not as yet been commenced ; but
we understand that all the arrangements are now made for
enabling the brothers, with other assistance, to carry it on with
full effect.

IMPORTANT CASE.--Aft action came before the
Royal Court, on Saturday, upon a judgment of the Court of
Common Pleas, to recover 1001. damages, and 451. 10s. ex-
penses on Abraham Opey and his wife, and James Opey, their
son, for an assault on William Robert Gaylor and Sophia his
wife. It was entered by Mr. John Tucker, of No. 40, Basing--
hall-street, London, attorney, who appeared for the plaintiffs;
and the Solicitor-General pleaded for him. Advocate God-
fray objected to the document produced' being valid in law in
this Island, and observed, that on attestation of a judgment
could not be recognisefl here ; but the Court decided, that
the action being stned by the Clerk of the Treasury, the de-
fendants must-Answer. The defendants' Advocate next asked
that Mr. Tucker's power of Attorney be produced ; but the
Court overruled this second plea, and affirmed the judgment of
tln Court of Common Pleas, and ordered the defendant to
find bait. To this an appeal was lodged and granted. The
defendants preferred going to prison rather than give security.

TIIE NEV STEAM-BOAT " NOVELTY. he.
recent successful experiment of driving this boat, of the largest
class, with anthracite coal, against the tide and a strong cur-
rent from heavy rains, at the rate of 16 miles in the bout, has
caused much remark in cur city, as an astonishing fact of great
importance on the subject cf fuel, which may lead to revolu-
tions in steam navigation. Dr. Knott, the distinguished Pre-
sident of Union College. is the well-known proprietor of the
Novelty, which' lie constructed, we believe, with machinery'

tities. In the trips to Albany for one season the difference in
cost between wood and anthracite for the Novelty it is ascer-
tained would be 19,000 dollars in favour of coal. The success-
ful navigation of the Atlantic from America to Europe is made
certain. Among the other great advantages would be the vast
saving of human life, as it is believed the steady intense radiated
beat of anthracite will be in some degree a security against
those sudden accumulations which arise from the inflammable
blaze of pine-wood. There is also an entire freedom from the
annoyance of smoke, and the danger of fire from showers of
sparks. 'Wood is now selling at the Hudson at five or six
dollars a cord. The cost, in fact, of pine-wood is about double.
that of anthracite. The passage and freight, therefore, must
soon be reduced to half the present rates. The Novelty is re-
markable for the ease with which she glides through the w ater,
the motion being without any jarring. —New York Evening
