The report which appeared in the Times last Satur-
day, that Sir John Milky Doyle's carriage had been
seized for non-payment of his hotel bill at Newry, is con-
tradicted in that journal this morning. - It appears that
no such occurrence took place, that every item was
duly paid, and that the Gallant General left Newry for
Dublin in the carriage in question. This is of a piece
with the countless Orange lies put forth against the people
of Ireland.

The Orange papers are preparing the way for
carrying the Repeal question, and if Peel cannot restrain
their atrocious attacks on the Irish Catholics, it will be
repeal and something more. The madmen already
oi.oiently talk of disfranchising Carlow, Tipperary,
Dublin, and many other places where the oppressed
Irish have resisted the threats and intimidation of the
Jrange landlords. For tho same reason Scotland should
be disfranchised, and Episcopacy established in that
country.

The report that Lord Jeffrey is about to retire from
the bench is contradicted by some of the Scotch papers.

O DEAR, HOW WE LONG TO

GET MARRIED."

ADDRESSED TO THE TWELVE UNMARRIED LA-
DIES WHO, BY REASON OF THEIR BEAUTY
AND INNUBILITY, WERE SELECTED AT THE
LATE CORONATION TO BEAR HER MAJESTY'S
ROBE.

---- Here LovE
His golden shafts employs, here lights
His constant lamp, here waves his purple wings,
Here reigns and revels. MILTON.

O dear, what will become of me ;
0 dear, what shall I do ;
Nobody coming to many me,
Nobody coming to woo. Buaws.

Ah I Love has been busy of late
'Mid the brave and the bright in " high places,"
With manifold claspings of waists
And kissings 'twixt pairs of fond faces;
Lady Villiers hath settled her vows_
Russell, after her, little time tarried—
And third of that beautiful list,
0 you know Lady Somerville's married.
If marriage, then, be so divine,
And so great be its bliss where it blesses,
What wonder if England's fair maids
Solicitous woo its caresses?—
Wbat marvel, what wonder extreme,
If its flames and its fervours be carried
'Along the sweet-hearted Vestals at Court ?
And they sigh, " How we long to get married."
Ah, yes ! lovely Virginal Twelve !
Who bore at your Queen's Coronation
Her jewelried robe, while ye looked
Queens yourselves,—for the world's adoration.
High Beauties 1 say, chide not your lips
(Like the Ladies when Sisera tarried,)
That the bridegroom and chariot delays—
For, " 0 dear, how ye long to get married."
There's you—O magnificent you—
Gorgeous Anna Elizabeth Howard !
And your ravishing sister, o'er whom
Nature's brilliantest lustres are shower'd—
Oh ! confess your voluptuous souls
At the golden idea to he'carried,
And you sing, as you sigh for a lord,
" 0 dear, how we long to get married."

Than you, too, fair Bouverie, you—
Hyacinthine-like--Flower of splendour—
And ye, sister Pagets, who bloom
Blond of hair, and with eye blue and tender.
0-bevy of beautiful girls,
All too long by an age have ye tarried—
Sweet sparklers in satin and pearls !
" 0 dear, how ye long to get married."
You also; dear Ida de Hay—
And you, thrice adorable Stanhope--
0 sure through your fine-flowing veins
Inexpressible sweetnesses ran up,
As your soul o'er the chaste ideal
Of hope matrimonial tarried,
And your hearts made a throb, that would say
" 0 dear, how we long to get married !"
Sweet Lennox, fair Cowper, gay West;
And Grimstone, the fair Frederica—
Should your tongues but declare of your hearts
How eloquent each were the speaker.
Yet all your hearts' notions would still
In one sentence enchanting be carried,
And your lips would in honey distil
" 0 dear, how we long to get married."
O Where are they, where are they, then,
Those lordly and lovely deceivers,
Who shall be, of your virginal hearts,
The bright and the bonny berea.vers ?
Are they Tories ?—O no !—for sweet maids,
If not out of your lives you'd be harried,
'Twere better 1)on Juan himself
Were your spouse, than to such to be married.
No, no : in their sun-dawn of life,
In their glory, and manhood, anebeauty,
There arc throngs of illustrious youths
Who would far better love ye and suit ye ;
And though Wedlock's shafts they may long
Have despised, and successfully parried—
Show—fair maids—your unmatchable charms,
And their magic will soon get you married.
What need to point out or recite
To your quick comprehensions vivacious—
Of Russells, and Berkeleys, and Greys,
Of :Hiltons, and Gordons the gracious ?
For ere we should finish the list
Your hearts would be conquered and carried,
And the blush on your bosom and brow
Would betoken your wish to be married.
Already around your fair beds
Sweet dreams hymeneal are stealing ;
Bright images shine o'er your heads,
And bell-chimes are theerily pealing.
Sweet Virgins ! Sweet Dian-like Twelve !
By your hands, and the gage by you carried,
I foresee, 'ere December be here,
You'll with Whigs all be cosily married.

I EXPRESS PROM LIVEUPOOL.
LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY NIGHT.
Cunard's steam-boats have achieved such a
name for punctuality and speed, that we were
not altogether surprised, although much grati-
fied, on learning that the Britannia mail steamer,
which left Boston late on the evening of the 17th,
and Halifax on the night of the 19th instant,
was announced by telegraph as being off the
floating light-ship at ten minutes past six o'clock,
P.m. She entered the Mersey, and proceeded
to her moorings at half-past seven o'clock, having
performed the passage in the remarkably short
space of nine and a half days. Owing to the.
kindness of her agents, and that of Lieute-
nant Roberts, we were put in possession of
our despatches immediately on her arrival.
As the Britannia was coming out of Boston, the
Caledonia mail steamer was entering that port,
after a voyage of eleven days to Halifax.
The former vessel has brought to England 100
passengers, • all of whom speak in the highest
terms of Captain Clelland's conduct, and of his
ship's sea-worthiness. The papers brought by
this conveyance, comprise New York dates to the
17th, Boston to the 18th, and Halifax to the 20th.

THE M'LEOD CASE.
We received yesterday morning (we understood by
Government Express), the Oneida Whig Extra, contain-
ing the opinion of the Supreme Court, as delivered by
Mr. Justice Cowen in the matter of Alexander APLeod,
which cc-includes with a refusal to grant his discharge.
The perusal of this document by no means changes
the opinion we expressed yesterday. We understand
that the Counsel of li`Leod will sue out a writ of error,
and that the case will come before the Court for the Cor-
rection of Errors, and if that should confirm the present
decision, au appeal lies to the Supreme Court.—New York
Inquirer.

Judge Cowen concludes his opinion in APLeod's case
as follows:—" Suppose a prisoner of war to escape, and
that on his way home, and before he crosses the line, he
should set fire to a farm house in the night and kill the
inmates—is there a doubt that he might properly be con-
victed either of arson or murder ? When a grand jury
have charged that a man has committed murder in Cais
State, I can imagine no case, whether the charge re-
late to the time of open public war or peace, in which
he can claim exemption from trial. If he show that he
was in truth acting as a soldier in time of public war, the
Jury will acquit him. The Judge will direct them to
obey the law of nations, which is undoubtedly a part of
the common law. So if the accused were acting in de-
fence against an individual invader of his country. But
above all things it is important in the latter case for the
Jury to inquire whether his allegation of defence be nut
false or colourable.

" They cannot allow, as an act of defence, the wilful
pursuing even such an enemy, though dictated by
Sovereign authority, into a country at peace with
the Sovereign' of the accused, seeking out that
enemy and taking his life. Such a deed can be no-
thing but an • act of vengeance. It can be nothing
but a violatiOn of territory, a violatiov,iof the municipal
law, the faith of treaties, and the law of nations. The
Government of the accused may approve, diplomacy may
gloze, but a Jury can only inquire whether he
was a party to the deed, or to any act of illegal vio-
lence which he knew would probably endanger human
life. If satisfied that he was not, as I sincerely hope they
may be, upon the evidence in the case before us, they
will then have the pleasant duty to perform of pronoun-.
cing him not guilty. But whatever may be their conclu-
sion, we feel the utmost confidence that the prisoner,
though a foreigner, will have no just cause to complain
that he has suffered wrong at the hands of an American
Jury.

"-At our hands the prisoner had a right to require an
answer upon the facts presented by his papers, whether
in law he can properly be holden to a trial. We have
had no choice but to examine and pronounce upon the
legal character of those facts, in order to satisfy our-
selves of the bearing they might have on the novel and
important question submitted. That examination has
led to the conclusion that we have no power to discharge
the prisoner.
" He must, therefore, be remanded, to take his trial in
the ordinary forms of law,"
