The calendar of the now pending assizes for the
county of Suffolk presents some features of appalling
atrocity, to which, however, we shall allude as briefly
as the importance of the circumstances may seem to
justify. It is never without serious misgivings as to
the consequences of dwelling, too emphatically or fre-
quently, on great crimes, that we advert, as matter
of duty, to those occasional outbreaks of wickedness
and audacity, which, from their simultaneous and ex-
tensive manifestation—among many districts—on the
part of many classes of people—sometimes impress us
with the probability of moral as well as of physical conta-
gion —Of this class of offences incendiarism, or arson,
is, perhaps, one of the most remarkable and most
hideous types. Considered in its relations to, and
bearing upon the good order, the peace and security
of, property and life, and of organised society itself;
there is, perhaps, no delinquency of more aggravated
enormity. The pressure of external evils, the inten-
sity of domestic suffering from privation, poverty, and
disease, the want of employment, or the perhaps
still more intolerable position of labouring hard for
wages inadequate to the satisfaction of even the most
sordid condition of human existence ; these are cir-
cumstances which may be alleged in explanation—
but they cannot be pleaded in excuse—of the guilt of
the incendiary. The recklessness of his particular
malice, or of his general resentment, lights up the
blazing pile which is to immolate alike his friend and
his foe ; the property of the meritorious and indus-
trious innocent, as well as the well-filled granaries
and stabling of the wealthier, but harder masters,
whom he may choose whether on reasonable
grounds or out of mere caprice, from overt acts
on their side, or consciousness on his, of guilty
intentions towards them,—to consider his " ene-
mies." If his be well-founded, his
visitation of it is at once excessive and illegal. If it
be not, his act is one in the highest degree of moral
turpitude and civil guiltiness. In either case his
vengeance is dastardly, secret, and perilous to the
community. In both the suicidal folly of the design
is worthy of the fiendish malignity of the execution.
The hand that lights the match cannot, if it would,
extinguish the combustible mass which has once
been fatally ignited. The breath that has been
vigorous enough to kindle the incipient spark
into a devouring flame, is powerless as infancy
to arrest the overwhelming progress of con-
flagration. The arm which has launched the de-
struction cannot, however remorse of conscience or
feeling may prompt its better energies, stay its
march. Thus, to the wantonness of one bad impulse
the little all of the small occupier, and the garnered,
harvest and costly stock of the wealthiest farmer, may
be alike sacrificed in a moment, by the stealthy cri-
minal whose facile command over the implements of
instant combustion and ruin cannot control, retard,
or avert the terrible catastrophe which his infamaus
deed has precipitated.
But how comes it that in a country like this,—
where, generally speaking, the sacredness of private
property seems to be rather a native instinct in the
people than a mere prejudice of education or an acciden t
of our social institutions; how comes it that so syste-
matic a violation of all the laws, divine and human,
which protect the proprietary rights of labour
and the wealth acquired by it, should be found to
pervade extensive areas of the kingdom, and the dense
agricultural population settled upon them ? Alas !
we feel that the cause of such a state of things is so near
the surface that the fact itself implies an inexcusable de-
reliction of their duty, who, aware of its existence and
its growth, have not made a timely use oftheir influence
and control to extirpate it, or at least to neutralise its
manifestations. For what is the startling spectacle
which the summary of the Ipswich calendar presents
us, so far as regards this iniquity of incendiarism ?
Of 55 prisoners for trial, 30 are indicted for the
crimes of incendiarism and sending threatening let-
ters. Two of these 30 are females—and married
women (!), respectively of the ages of 32 and 22.
These two prisoners can read and write well. Eight
others, aged respectively 12, 14, 18, 21, 22, 28,
32, and 53, can read and write imperfectly ;
other four, whose ages are 11, 12, 12, and 16, can
read but not write ; while fifteen, whose ages
range thus, 11, 11, 13, 15, 16, 16, 17, 17,
20, 21, 22, 28, 31, 33, and 40, can neither read nor
write at all. So that just one-half of the number
indicted for arson, 15 out of 30, cannot write or read;
4 can only read, not write; 8 can write and read im-
perfectly ; 2, well. Of this mass of prisoners, 15 are
aged 18 and upwards; and 14 (just about one-half
again, of the whole number) are of ages rising from
11 to 17! Fourteen children, the NESTOR among
whom is not more than 17, charged with the awful
crime of incendiarism ! Fifteen out of 30 prisoners, on
similar dreadful charges, wholly without education !
Why, what could the parochial and district clergy
have been about ? Where, in this statement,
is there any evidence of those incessant, all-im-
portant, and spontaneously administered efforts,
as enlightening and instructing, informing and
guiding the minds of their flocks, especially those of
the rising generation, which the Bishop of LONDON,
with so much unction, and his Right Rev. Brother of
EXETER, with so much vehemence, insist upon as the
undoubted and indefeasible merit of the beneficed and
the working clergy of the Established Church ?
Haply the districts where these offences have been
perpetrated are so unfortunate as to be without any
adequate array of clerical teachers? We should
hardly think so. At least they are not without an
ample contingent of magisterial parsons : for (on the
authority of the Morning Chronicle, which has
supplied us with these details) it would appear that,
of the whole thirty prisoners, no less than twenty-
four were committed by clergymen in the
Commission ; and, as if to make this fact
still more significant, of the fifteen will
could read and write, twelve were sent
to prison by reverend pastors, whose time would
have been better employed in teaching the ignorant
peasant youth of their neighbourhood the first elements
of education, and the first elements of their duty to-
wards God and man, than in the more secular avo-
cation of hearing charges against them and their
fathers. But there may be zealous partisans of the
established clergy, who will suppose that the theatre
of such offences must have been some remote and
savage country district, shut out by mountains or
bad roads, or dangerous waters, from the ordinary
advantages and communications, which tend so
much to the instruction and improvement of
the poorer classes in more favoured localities.
But the theatre is, in fact, the broad expanse of
Suffolk with part of Essex : two model counties of
Conservative politics, agriculture, and attachment to
our ancient " institutions in Church and State." Had
the outrages been perpetrated in Bungay or Chelmsford
or Colchester, how loud and fierce would have been
the anathernss directed against sectarian criminality
and radical disorganisation,—Wesleyan indifference
to the moral welfare of its congregations, and Unita-
rian laxity in the inculcation of all moral or religious
principles ! Truly, the Ipswich calendar, with its
useful commentary, distinguishing the partially in-
structed from the utterly ignorant, bears a grave and
memorable record against the ministration and use-
fulness
of the established clergy in that part of the
kingdom. It will not be readily forgotten.

" The change which had taken place in Cuba, and
the conduct of the local authorities in Brazil, were
topics on which he was unwilling to express his
real sentiments; but these States should recollect that
we had treaties with them on that subject; that they
had entered into engagements with us, and had thereby
placed themselves under obligations as binding, as strong,
as though they had ceded to us towns and provinces.
We had achieved a conquest of humanity, and were as
much entit!ed to enjoy the fruits of that conquest as of
any other. Those treaties they must be prepared to full,
and he trusted that means would be found to see that
they should be executed honestly and faithfully at last.
He had no hesitation in saying that if the Governments
of Brazil and Spain would, for two or three years,
execute faithfully, honestly, and zealously those treaties,
the trade would be absolutely at an end."

There are some great public questions, the social
interests involved in which command the sympathies
of the most bigoted partisans, of all shades of politi-
cal opinions, in this party-stricken country. We
cannot imagine any homage to moral principles--any
recognition of their inherent, original influence upon
pur common nature--more impressive or consolatory.

In this fortunate, but limited class of questions, we
may assign a prominent position to that of the aboli-
tion of the slave trade. It will be remembered, no
doubt to the latest posterity, that the voice of party
hostility was hushed—that the enmities of political
antagonism were suspended—when a Liberal Go•
vernment appealed to the British public for the must
enormous money contribution ever tendered at one
time, and by one act, as a voluntary oblation on
the altar of human freedom. Yet even that costly
°tiering of 20,000,0001., so confidently proposed to
the English Legislature, and so promptly sanc-
tioned—and so freely and cordially conceded by the
English people in 1833 was little more than
we had already sacrificed in the same righteous
cause, from the period of the first generous labours of
GRANVILLE SHARPE, and CLARKSON, and WILBER-
FORCE, to the commencement of the reign of his late
Majesty King WILLIAM IV. The expenses of the
naval force we maintained and employed, and the
machinery we had to provide and set in motion for
carrying out the stipulations of our treaties with va-
rious Powers on this subject; the cost of our staff
upon the mixed commissions established in confor-
mity with those treaties ; the cost of our Sierra
Leone establishment, &c. &c., have amounted to an
aggregate scarcely eonceivable by those who have not
looked into the history of these proceedings ;—more
especially from the date of the declaration of the Al-
lied Powers against the slave trade, at Vienna, in
February, 1815; and in reference to our several con-
ventions with Spain, in 1817 ; with the Netherlands
in 1819 ; with Brazil, in 1828, &c. &c.
We have perused, with less surprise than pleasure,
the interesting statement submitted to the House of
Lords on Thursday evening last, by the Earl of
ABERDEEN, and the congratulations tendered to him
by Noble Peers from all sides of the House, relative
to the revised code of instructions which the Foreign
Secretary has caused to be prepared for the instruc-
tion of naval officers commanding her MAJESTY'S
cruisers and vessels of war employed in the suppres-
sion of the slave-trade. Lord ABERDEEN, after com-
menting on the insufficiency of the existing "in-
structions" to officers on this arduous service—(it
having been customary to supply them merely with
literal copies of the various, original, and supplemen-
tary treaties relating to slave-trading, from time
to time contracted between this country and other
Powers, leaving to these commanders the responsible
and difficult task of forming their unaided judg-
ment on the construction of the text in many
difficult emergencies which, though varying by appa-
rently very slight differences of circumstances might be
determinable in very broadly differing principles of
national law)—expressed his unfeigned astonishmen,
at the general discretion, sagacity, and good sense with
which our naval officers had acted in their reading of
these treaties. The number of these treaties, he re-
marked, was not less than thirty ; and the revision of
their various stipulations, powers, &c., and the draw-
ing up of the new code of instructions which it was
thought just and expedient to found upon them, with
a view to the better guidance of these naval officers,
had been confided to Dr. LUSHINGTON, Judge of the
Court of Admiralty, Dr. ROTHERY (a Civilian of
Doctors' Commons), Captain DENMAN, R.N., and
Mr. BARDINEL, of the Foreign-office, (so well and
honourably known for his reports and official papers
'n connexion with the slave trade). Their " instruc-
7ons," after receiving the careful considera-
of Government, had been examined,
amended, and confirmed by the law officers of
the Crown, and were now brought forward for the
information and sanction of Parliament. The speech
of the Earl of ABERDEEN was remarkable for some
points of peculiar interest, independently of their con-
nection with this question of slavery. In alluding to
the satisfaction of her MAJESTY'S Government at the
opportunity thus afforded them of making public the
character and bearing of the instructions given to
our cruisers, the Noble Earl administered this digni-
fied and calm rebuke to the suspicious petulance or
our French defamers :—" Her MAJESTY'S Ministers,"
he said, "felt that, as they had nothing to crnceal,
this general publicity was desirable, and they felt
that that would afford the best refutation of those
calumnious and false assertions and accusations which
had been made against the conduct of that country
in suppressing the slave-trade—that under the pre
text of humanity they really sought the extension of
their own commerce, while they crippled and impeded
that of other countries."
In the short account he gave of the statistics of
slave exportation from the coast of Africa, from 1768
(whence our first trustworthy accounts may be said
to date) to 1843, we find the appalling statement that
fur many years it averaged 100,000 annually; and
from 1835 to 1840, the same number to Brazil and
Cuba alone. It had latterly much declined. In
1842, Cuba and Brazil included, it had fallen to
17,000, though in 1843 it had risen again to 36,000.
Whilst he showed that during the enlightened and
prosperous government of General VALDEZ for
Spain, in Cuba, the slave importations had prodigi-
ously declined, owing to that enlightened officer,
consistent discouragement of the traffic, he apprised
the House of a very contrary policy, which we blush
to record as having guided the councils of ESPARTERO
during his tenure of all but supreme power in Spain.
The whole passage is a remarkable one :
" Ire had stated, on a former occasion, and he believed
with truth, that had General Valdez remained in the
government of the island, and continued to receive the
support and confidence of the Government at home, thu
slave trade would have been annihilated in that island.
He must observe that the Government of the Regent,
although well disposed to the abolition of the slave trade,
did not support General Valdez at the close of his ad-
ministration. On the contrary, he received very positive
orders to relax in his endeavours for the suppression of
that traffic."
Lord ABERDEEN, we are glad to perceive, renders
ample justice to the active co• operation of the naval
forces of the United States with our own, in watching
and repressing the trade on the coasts of Africa ; and
to the good faith with which France, and Portugal,
in a remarkable manner, have lately been redeeming
their engagements to us on this head. Of the duplicity
of Spain, and the contumacy of Brazil, Lord ABER-
DEEN speaks in very intelligible terms of displeasure
and reprobation. He intimates, too, a tolerably dis-
tinct purpose of compelling them, if they show a dis-
position to persist in their shameless violation of the
faith of treaties, to yield to graver and more stringent
powers than those of State papers, what they obsti-
nately deny to the impulses of shame on their own
parts, and the weight of remonstrances upon ours.
Surely Spain forgets the precarious tenure of her
colonial sovereignty in Porto Rico, and the Govern-
ment of Brazil must have forgotten what was the
species of danger apprehended by that old Roman
who successfully opposed the insidious proposition
for registering, by a census, the numerical amount of
slave population which then existed within the pre-
cinct of the Eternal City ? Both Powers may yet do
well to nate, deliberately, the opinions expressed by a
lea'iing Member of the British Government :

these atrocities acted without orders from head-
quarters ?

The Three per Cents, were done at 26i for cash,
261 at sixty days ; and the Fives at 201 for the 26th
of August.

The only articles of the least interest in the Paris
papers relate to the affairs of Morocco, and particularly
to the late operations of Marshal BUGEAUD against
the Moorish troops. A general belief prevailed, that
as the Marshal had returned a third time to his
former position on the frontier, he would be unable
to penetrate through the desert to Fez; and all,
therefore, would depend on the fleet under the Prince
DE JOIN VILLE. The National gives the following ac-
count of the state of affairs in that quarter:—
"Marshal Bugeaud is at the head of 8,000 men, in
the vicinity of Ouchda. Before him is, in perpetual
movement, this little Moorish army, composed of regular
troops, or of fanatics, excited by Abd-el-Kader. Three
defeats have not discouraged them, and the more con-
cession the Emperor is willing to make, the more they
are excited in the name of the Koran. OR the whole,
the influence of Abd-el-Kader commands 3,000 men.
Marshal Bugeaud, of course, does not dread these
hordes of barbarians that our brave troops make
fly before them, but he does not move forward. When
attacked, he repels the enemy ; he then returns to his
camp, until the same game again commences. Why
then does he not advance, penetrate as far as Fez, and
spread the terror of our arms throughout the whole em-
pire ? Six weeks ago, all that was very possible, but
now the season is too Jar advanced, the great heats are
insupportable ; in spite of all precautions, our soldiers
sink beneath an atmosphere of fire. To reach Fez we
must march 70 leagues, without a drop of water.
"We must wait, but waiting has also its perils. In-
decision is defeat in the opinion of the Arabs. Until
when are we to wait ? Until the autumn commences,
and brings on its rains, which render all movement im•
possible. In short, we must postpone all operations till
the spring.
" The sea remains, however, open to us ; but has not
M. Guizot declared at the Luxembourg that be would
neither touch Tangier nor Tetuan. Is it England that
prevents him ? No doubt it is ; but will England inter-
dict Spain, Sweden, and Sardinia ? Is it only against
us that her orders are directed ?
" We are, therefore, for some time to come to expect
nothing from Marshal Bugeaud. It is to the squadron
commanded by the Prince de Joinville that we are to
look for offensive operations."
It appears from the Journal des Debatx that on the
9th a grand entertainment was given by Sir ROBERT
WILSON, on board the Warspite at Gibraltar, to the
Prince DE JOIN VILLE. The whole of the civil, mili-
tary, and naval authorities, the persons of distinction
and note in Gibraltar, and the officers of foreign ships
of war in the bay, were present. The Prince was re-
ceived on board by Sir R. WlLsort and the Captain of
the ship, with the utmost cordiality, and the manner and
address of his Royal Highness excited the admiration
of the whole company. On leaving the Warspite to
return to the Pluton, the Prince was saluted with 21
guns. On the 10th his Royal Highness and his
aides-de-camp dined with the Governor, who sent his
own carriages to convey them, on landing, to the Go-
vernment House. The same journal confirms the re-
port that arrests had been made at Neuilly, but it
appears they were not of a political character.
We regret to learn from these papers that no doubt
remains as to the fate of Colonel STODDART and Cap-
tain CoNour. Colonel SIIEIL had received a letter
from Dr. WOLFF, announcing the melancholy fact,
that our unfortunate countrymen were executed at
Bokhara in June or July, 1842.
The following is the official programme for the
celebration of the anniversary of the Revolution of
July, at Paris :—On Saturday, 27th, funeral services
in memory of the citizens who died in 1830, in
defence of the laws and liberty, will be celebrated in
the various places of public worship. A special ser-
vice will be performed in the Church of St. Paul,
during which the standards on the Pont Neuf will be
veiled with crape.—On the 28th, relief will be dis-
tributed at the homes of the indigent of the various
arrondissemens.— On Monday, the 29th, salvos of
artillery will be fired, at the Hotel des Invalides, at
six in the morning and six in the evening. On the
esplanade of the Invalides and the Barriere-du-TrOne,
from two o'clock till night, there will be representa-
tions of military pantomimes, orchestras for dancing,
and May-poles with prizes. •At three o'clock there
will be jousts on the Seine, between the Pont Royal
and the Pont de la Concorde. At seven o'clock
there will be a grand concert in the garden of the
Tuileries. At nightfall there will be a grand illu-
mination of the Avenues des Champs Elysees, from
the Place de la. Concorde to the Barriere de l'Etoile.
The Column of July, ornamented with a banner, the
Pantheon, the Madeleine, the Arc de Triomphe de
l'Etoile, and the other public buildings, will also be
illuminated. At nine o'clock there will be a grand
display of fire works on the Ponte de la Concorde and
the Quai d'Orsay, in front of the garden of the
Chamber of Deputies, and another at the same time a'
the Barriere du TrOne.

COLONEL STODDART AND
CAPTAIN CONOLL Y.

The most interesting piece of information brought by
the Levant mail, and it is one which will be deplored
throughout England, is the confirmation of our worst
fears with regard to the fate of Colonel Stoddart and
Captain Conolly. It is with deep regret we have to an-
nounce that the death of both these gallant officers is at
length put beyond a doubt. They were executed at
Bokhara in the month of June, 1842. The object of
Dr-Wolff being thus unhappily ended, the reverend
gentleman was to leave Bokhara towards the end of
May, on his way to Europe.
The following letter, dated Constantinople, July 7, is
published in the Malta Times :
"We have just received positive intelligence as to the re-
sult of Dr. Wolff's mission to Bokhara. Colonel Sheil states,
in a letter under date of the Bth of June, from Teheran, that
dispatches have arrived from Dr. Wolff, in which he writes
that Colonel Stoddart and Captain Conolly were both of them
publicly executed, in June or July, 1842. The Doctor him-
self, thanks to the letters with which he had been furnished
at Constantinople, was courteously received by the Khan of
Bokhara, and was to have left that place on the 10th of
June. The mystery that hung over the fate of these unfor-
tunate gentlemen has thus been finally dispelled. Their
friends will now know the worst; and even that, perhaps, is
better than the painful uncertainty they have so long expe-
rienced on the subject."

UNION-HALL.-(THIS DAY.)
Frederick Moss, a Dutchman, was charged with stealing a
watch and a gold ring, the property of John Korff, the master
of a Dutch galliot ; and Henry Afartin, a waterman, was
charged with receiving the articles, knowing them to have
been stolen.

It appeared Moss came over a passenger in Korff's
vessel from Rotterdam, and that on the passage he
stole the watch mad ring from the captain's cabin.
The vessel having arrived in the river, Moss went
ashore, and went into a public-house, where he met the
other prisoner, and they fell into conversation. Moss, want-
ing to pay for some liquor, tendered a Dutch coin, which
was refused by the landlord, when Martin proposed
to raise money on the watch of his fellow-prisoner,
and, with his consent, took it to a pawnbroker's and
pledged it and the ring, but instead of delivering the tickets
to Moss, he kept them himself. As soon as the Dutchman
