MORE SEPOY PLACARDS ! !

The Irish " sapoys" are still actively at work,
and their inventive power in devising ornamental
placards for the walls of the country towns and the
doors of the chapels is increasingly fertile. The
following effusion covered the gate-posts of Carlow
on Thursday, surmouutei by a harp, two pikes,
and the figure of an open coffin :
" Men of Carlow
The time of England's downfal is near at hand.
Ireland's awake.
Will you rise up ?
Long live Nana Sahib
Down with the English !
Hurrah for Liberty I God save the people I"

But the Mitchelstow- n ribbonmen exceed all their
confraternity in the originality and skill of their
seditious posters. The following placards have ap-
peared in that place, executed with considerable
caligraphio skill, capitaled as well as any printer
could manage words for emphasis' sake, adorned
with numerous notes of exclamation, and done in
red and black ink, the more striking lines being in
the sanguinary hue : •

" Men of Mitchelstown,
Glorious News!!
Your old and inveterate enemy the Saxon
bites the dust of India, 150,000,000 of
Brave sepoys have risen for their freedom.
Now is Ireland's opportunity ;
Let us imitate the example of the brave sepoys
and strike for freedom
You have only to unite with gallant Tipperary
and the green flag will soon wave e'er the
Gaulties
Three cheers for old Ireland
Three more for the sepoys
Be silent and steady
.And when the time comes be ready."
The second runs as follows :
" India! I I India H !
Men of Mitoheletown—
The gallant Tipperary Boys
Have responded to the cad of the
Glorious sepoys—
To show John Bull that centuries
have not subdued the hatred of
—Erin's brave sons—
For her Saxon oppressors
Three cheers for the brave sepoys ! ! !
Don't take the bloody Saxon shilling
He who tears this is not an Irishman
Printed by an Irishman who remembers the days
of old.' "
It is too much to say that these exhibitions of
ribbon "Nana-ism" are rendering Ireland infamous
in the eyes of the intelligent foreigners. It i.s sur-
prising that every Romanist in Ireland, who claims
for himself the status of a m sympathyour, does not
repudiate with disgust all with the in-
famous traitors.

Tab CASE CASE OF TI CAGLIARI STEAMER.—A. brother of
a--inn;
Wein
one of the unfortunate engineers of the Cagliari, now
imprisoned in a Neapolitan dungeon, writes :

treatment which my poor brother has been subjected to
has bad such an effect upon him that he has

out of his mind. You may judge of the distress this
news has caused us ; but, although every effort has been
used to endeavour to obtain their redress, or to awaken
some interest on the part of the English Government,
we have been hitherto quite unsuccessful. Lord Claren•

LIBELLING THE METROPOLITAN SALOON OMNIBUS
COMPANY.—This morning, Mr. W. H. Pope, the secre-
tary of the Metropolitan Saloon Omnibus Company,
appeared before the sitting magistrate, Mr. Paynter, in
support of a charge against a man named George
Harrise, who was remanded this day week for distri-
buting hand-bills without a printer's name, at a late
'meeting at Brorapton, charging the company with gross
and slanderous libels.
Mr. Pope, addressing the magistrate, said that he had
come pursuant to arrangement to prosecute the case
against the man Harries.

had been made for their reception or transmission
to the disturbed districts. Tne men, whose ser-
vices are of such vital consequence, are kept either
on board the ships in which they arrived, or in
the fort, because there are no quarters ready on
shore, or means of sending them up the country ! !
We hear that "Her MAJESTY'S screw-ship
Sanspareil, 70 guns, with 300 of the Royal Ar-
tillery ; the transport steamers Cleopatra, with
'4OO of the 23d Royal Welih Fusiliers ; Adven-
tore, with 300 more of the same regiment, and
210 of the 821 Foot ; and the Mauritius, with
700 of the 931 Highlanders ; her MAJESTY'S ship
Telleisle, with 350 more of the latter c)rps ; her
le.
wesTY's steamer Penelop', with Horse Artillery
and horses from the Cape, have all arrived since
the last advices." But what has been their re-
ceptionl In place of having every comfort pro-
vided, so urgently required after a protracted
voyage, they were tept
for hays in the crowded
transports on the river's banks. If the
object had been t 3 invite disease and deatl,,
it could not have ham
more effectually
aimed at. The Governor-klenc,
rs and hi
Council were too busily occupied. in strivio -
to thwart and cast discredit on the military
authorities, or iu seeking a, character for pseud-,-
to attend to such trifling matters
philanthropy,
as the care of some 2,000 British soldiers, or in
rendering their services available. It is even said
that H.M. 53d Regiment, when on guard at Cal
• eatta and Barrackpore, during the Mohurruw,
were left for 48 hours without food or refresh-
ment of any description. The excuse is, a defec-
tive commissariat. But surely if that be so plainly
perceptible at head-quarters, the evils must be f,r
greater when they arrive at the scene of action
and are brought face to face with the enemy, or

TURKEY.

We have received the Constantinople journals
via Trieste. The Journal de Constantinople of the
13th says :—" On the faith of letters received from
Trebizond, we announced a few days back that the
English steamer kangaroo had been captured in
the Black Sea by four or five Russian gunboats.
We now learn, on indubitable authority, that no
attack whatever was made on that vessol, and that
she lris anchored in this port on her return from
the Black Sea. The commission of inquiry, named
in consequence of applicaion of the Russian em-
bassy for explanations as to the mission of the Kan-
garoo, is composed of Seviik-Pacha, Riz
i.-Bey,
Tevtik-B,?y, and Fails-Bey, and holds its sittings
at the Seraskier's hotel."

JAPAN.
It may be remenibeied that some short time
back a journal of Amsterdam announced that two
English ves,,:els had forced the port of Nagasaki, in
Japan. The I)ehats contains the following details
on the incident :--
"A circumstance of considerable interest, which lately
took place, aff,rded the Empevar of Japan an occasion
to declare officially in favour of the execution of the
treaties some time back concluded with several
European powers. On the 11th December last two
English vessels of war, after having visited the
ports of Sinwda and liakodadi, appeared before
Nagasaki, but were refined admission by the man-
darin acting as governor. The two captains, how,

ever, strong in their right, penetrated into the port
and anchored within gunshot of the land-batteries, which
ernained without any act of hasti•ity against them.
['he nex.`, day they repaired with a numerous escort to
.he residence of the mandarin, who refused to receive
-.hem, but who, at the same tune, sent word that, if
;bey bad any complair.t to make, he would forward
their representations to the Imperial court, and t ans-
nit to them the reply. This he did most scrupu-
lously. The two captains wrote to Yeddo to claim the
right of remaining some time at Nagasaki, in confor-
mity with the treaty, signed in 1855, between England
and Japan. In about a fortnight after the Emperor's
answer arrived, announcing that his Mi,jesty, being
desirous of executing the obligations which be had
entered into, had given orders for the three ports of
icooda, Hakodadi, and Nagasaki to be open to the yea-
gels of France, Russia, England, and the United States.
Such vessels were to be permitted to refit there, to tak
in provisions, and to trade to a certain defined extent. Ti e
Emperor, in order to carry out that determination,
issued an edict which was without delay posted up in
every part of his dominions. The seamen belonging to
vessels admitted to erjoy the benefits of the treaty are
not to penetrate into the interior of the country. Stion;cl
they contravene that provision, they are to be subjected
to an imprisonment, the length of which will be every
time fixed by 'he Emperor, according to the circuu.-
i stances of the case."

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, March 22.—The recall of the Austrian
Chargé d'Affaires from Tuna has been managed in
a most undignified way, and the " inspired"
leaders in the Ost-Deutsche Post are calculated to
excite in the minds of the public a; suspicion that
the Imperial Cabinet feels it would have been
better policy had it altogether ignored the un-
seemly language of the Sardinian press. Instead
of simply and briefly informing the public that the
Austrian Government has ordered Count Paar to
quit his post at Turin and to return to Vienna, the
non-official organ tells a long "rigmarole" story
about the care which has been taken "to deprive
the measure of any character that could be preju-
dicial to the cause of peace." That Austria has
just taken one of those half-measures for which she
is renowned is evident from the following. The
Post says :
Ai" We are informed that Count Paar has neither been
instructed to demand his passports nor to notify to the
Sardinian Cabinet that the diplomatic relations between
the two Governments have been broken cif. The Aus-
Charge d'Affaires will take leave of Count Cavour in the
way that is usual when a diplomatist is about to under-
take a journey. If he is not able positively to say when
be shall return it is in consequence of circumstances over
which the Count Cavour, and not he, has control. The
road to a more friendly policy will always be left open
by Austria."

TIIE NEW RUSSIAN FILONTIIIII.—S9 many incorrect
versions have appeared in several European journals
about the pmeeedings and intentions of the European
Commission of the Danube that there, is considerable
danger of false views being taken by the public on this
important subject. I take, therefore, this opportunity
to give you a concise account of the present position of
the Danubian Commission, on the correctness of which
you may rely. The Commission met the first week in
Nov. last at Galatz, since which time they have been em-
ployed in the examination of the different mouths of the
river, in the formation of a working staff, and in the con-
sideration of questions relating to the state of the naviga--
tion of the lower Danube. In their examination of the
mouths, which from the lateness of the season could be
but cursory, they were much assisted by the valuable
surveys of Capt. Spratt, IL and by the lucid reports
of this efficer. These are the only authentib and accurate
surveys to which the Commission has Lad access. The
project of an A. ustrian engineer was submitted to the
Commissioners individually, but without the surveys on
which it is based. The works therein projected involve
an enormous expenditure, and it is rot probable that
they will be adopted. The Commission will not pro-
nounce finally until. its own engineers have made their
surveys and recommendations. It
is thought that the
St. George's mouth of the Danube proper a i I ultimately
be fixed upon as that best calculated to afford most ac-
commodatione to commerce, and to repay
