THE AMERICAN MAIL FROM QUEENSTOVN.

The Cork papers bring the subjoined account of
the safe arrival of the Canada at Queenstown on her
outward voyage to America. The weather here is
still extremely wild and stormy. This, morning,
indeed, it is blowing a full gale from the north-
west, and the air is again bitterly cold, cold enough
to anticipate a speedy fall of snow:—
" Owing to the protracted passage of the Canada,
a feeling partaking in some degree of anxiety began
to be entertained at Queenstown until, at 12 o'clock
this day, she appeared off the harbour. The Royal
Alice, the river steamer on board which the mails
had been placed, and which was in waiting from
yesterday evening, immediately upon the announce-
ment got up steam and proceeded out to sea to meet
her. Both steamers came up with each other at
the south side of Spike Island, and the Royal Alice
having, under the direction' of Capt. Levingstune,
got alongside in a short time, the mails were con-
veyed on board the Canada. These consisted
of 18 sacks from Liverpool and London, two
bags from Dublin, and one bag each from Cork and
Queenstown. Two male cabin passengers also went
on board her. After the mails had been shipped
the Canada fired a salute and remained stationary
for about half an hour, during which time the gen-
th-men on hoard the Royal Alice, were allowed to
go through her. The Canada is not of very large
dimensions, but is firmly built, and is perhaps as
well able to encounter a heavy sea as any vessel
afloat. Her capabilities were well tested in her
passage across the Channel. Wheu she had got a
short distance outside Liverpool a heavy swell from
the bar, combined with a terrific gale, obliged her
to cast anchor, and she was unable to leave the po-
sition which she then took up until half-past 8 p.m.
on Saturday. She again got up steam and proceeded,
but owine, to the violence of the gale her speed was
reduced to' 31 knots per hour. The pilot stated that
the storm was as terrific as that in which the Royal
Charter was lost. The Canada continued, however,
to advance slowly along, until half-past 2 o'clock
this morning, when, the gale having moderated,
she was enabled to accelerate her speed, and at 12
o'clock she steamed safely into our harbour. She
did not appear to have suffered in anyway; and,
with a few exceptions, the passengers seemed as if
they had not spent the night amid the dangers of a
Channel storm. The Canada proceeded on her out-
ward voyage about one o'clock to-day. She brings
out 162 cabin passengers in all."

JOHN SADLEIR'S FRAUDS.

Judge Longfiield gave his decision yesterday in
the case of Burmester and Eyre. After going at
full length into all the well worn-out arguments
urged on both sides, the learned judge concluded
by giving it as his opinion that Mr. Eyre's inten-
tion was to release the lands in favour of any party
dealing with Mr. Sadleir, he not knowing or caring
who that party was. His intention also was that
the considerations which induced him to execute
the release should not be disclosed to such party. He
acted deliberately, with full protection, and the
assistance of an attorney; and although he had
been grievously wronged by Mr. Sadleir, he could
not be permitted to redress that wrong at the ex-
pense of the bank, by depriving it of an advantage
which it had honestly obtained. He therefore over-
ruled Mr. Eyre's objection with costs.
