Had any man told me that Dr. KIRWAN would have taken a
situation under the Colleges Act, I would have said I
would as soon believe that a stream could return to its
source." The charity of the words we have printed in italics !
Mr. O'CossELL does not say that Dr. KIRWAN has been
bribed. What is more, he does not believe it.
But, to appease his own wounded vanity, he wishes to
make his gaping lieges of Conciliation Hall believe
that he imputes bribery to Dr. KIRWAN, and in the same
breath in which he makes a mock appeal to GOD, insinuates
the vilest of slanders against his friend. We could not wish
a better proof that ➢ir. O'CONNELL sees himself defeated.

The Paris Moniteur announces the resignation of Marshal
SOULT as Minister of War, and the appointment of General
ST. YoN to be his succesor. These and other military
changes are made known by five royal ordonnances, dated
the 10th. The first runs thus :—" Marshal SOULT, Duke of
Dalmatia, having represented to us, to our very great regret, the
impossibility in his state of health of continuing the functions
of Minister Secretary of State of War, and being desirous of
preserving the co-operation of his talents and long experience
in affairs, we have ordained and do ordain as follows :—Mar-
shal SOULT, Duke de Dalmat ie, ceasing his functions as Minis-
ter Secretary of State of War, will retain the Presidency of
our Council of Ministers." A second ordonnance of the same
date appoints Lieutenant-General MouxE DE SAINT YON
Minister of War; a third appoints the Baron MAR-
TINEAU DES GIIENFS Under Secretary of State of
the War Department; a fourth raises General Mo-
LINE DE SAINT lON to the dignity of the peer-
age ; and a fifth appoints General Baron GAZAN, director of
the personnel and military operations of the Ministry of War,
in place of General Mor.INE DE SAINT YON, and Major-
General Count DE LA RUE Director of the affairs of Algeria,
in place of M. VALTriEr.r.E, who has given in his resignation.
The accounts from Algiers in these papers is not of a favour-
able character. The Generals, it is true, had recommenced
the system of razzias, but these tended only the more to
rouse the natives against the French. Five additional tribes
had revolted from the French and joined ABD-EL-KADER.
BUGEAUD had signalised his arrival in Oran province by
a general razzia. What a contemptible warfare
for a distinguished officer ! We give the facts
from the Moniteur Algerien of the sth inst. :—" The
troops under the immediate command of the Governor-
General effected on the 27th ult. a very large razzia on the
insurgent tribes south of Tiaret and Teniet-el-Haad. A co-
lumn of cavalry and infantry proceeded against the rebels,
who had fled, and fell upon them after two night marches.
Large numbers of cattle, and a considerable quantity of
booty of all kinds, remained in our hands. The enemy, who
bad at first made a vigourous resistance, fled, leaving nearly
300 dead on the ground. Our losses are insignificant, in
comparison with so great a result. Thus, ten days after
leaving Algiers, the troops under the orders of the Marshal
were striking energetic blows at a distance of 90 leagues
from this place, and showing the tribes that they may be
reached at whatever distance they may be." The Presse
makes the following indignant remarks on the horrible war-
fare carried on by the Marshal :
" Not a report arrives from the army of Africa which does not
contain a formal condemnation of the system persevered in by
Marshal Bugeaud. We read in the report of General de Bar, ad-
dressed under date of Oct. 30, to the Minister of War The
Governor-General charged me to have the honour of informing
you that all the insurgent tribes had fled twenty leagues before
him ; that the insurrection had ceased to advance towards the east,
and that lie was employing all imaginable means to endeavour to
reach the emigrating tribes who are placing between themselves
and our colony spaces too considerable to be passed through in
one night.' Here, then, we have Marshal Bugeaud occupied in
driving the populations from the west, and declaring that they
place spaces between them too great to permit him to reach them,
and consequently to stop them. Thus Marshal Bugeaud, not
comprehending the Emir's policy, favours his projects of esta-
blishing his sovereignty in Morocco, and there fixing a people
who by their mass may resist the Moorish populations, and create
resources to enable him to live. It is now fifteen years that we
possess Algeria; fifteen years that our statesmen seek to solve the
question of fixing the power of France firmly in that country ;
fifteen years that the best forces of France are wasted there; and,
notwithstanding, it is not yet known what mode ought to be em-
ployed to attain that object. It is fifteen months since Abd-el-
.Kader, driven out of Algeria, and forced to the west with the
remnant of his power, conceived the idea of founding an empire
in Morocco. What does he do to succeed ? He comprehends
that power does not lie in an army, but in a numerous popula-
tion ; his design is not to wage war with us, but to withdraw from
our rule the population which he wants, and which are to form
the bases of his empire. For that purpose he sets himself up as
an avenger of the oppressed natives ; strikes at Djemma Ghazaouat
a terrible blow in reprisal for the burning at the Dahra, and the
injuries which for more than a year we have extended over the
whole of Western Kabylia."
Some of the journals again advert to Lieut. WAGIIORN'S
remarkable journey from Alexandria to Trieste and Germany
to London. The Epoque regards it as a very serious affair,
and thus urges the Government to take immediate steps to
counteract the injury it might do to France:—
" Whatever may be the ultimate results of this enterpriae, It is
in itself a heinous fact, which ought to awaken all the solicitude of
our Government, and induce it to take the most prompt measures
to prevent the consequences which would ensure from it to our
commerce, should it succeed. The presence of Count Stadion, the
Aulic Commissioner, and the directors of the Lloyd's company, on
the arrival of Mr. Waghorn's boat, the congratulations given to
him, the earnest zeal with which Austria lent her aid to him, fact.
litating by all possible means the success of this his first attempt,
the incessant efforts of Trieste to aggrandise itself at the expense
of Marseilles, disputing with cur port the trade with the richest
markets of Asia, disclose a well-conceived and concocted plan in
forming and establishing this league of rival interests. To these
indications of an indefatigable ct;mpetition, it is advisable to oppose
an equally strenuous opposition. It is at this price alone that we
can maintain our rights as a great nation, and make our strength
and power manifest."
The Constitutionnel publishes, from a letter dated Palermo,
the following Court xossip. It certainly places the Duke
DE MONTEBELLO in a very contemptible light

The miracle of the stream returning to its source is more
nearly exemplified in Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN. In his gentle
wooings of the Colleges Bill, he is returning to his first love;
for no man ever was more zealous for mixed collegiate edu-
cation in former days than Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN, who last
session was to die on the floor of St. Stephen's opposing the
Irish Colleges Bill. To be sure Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN'S opinions
are of no importance to any sensible man ; and the world
does not not need additional proofs of the weathercock cha-
racter of Conciliation hall statesmanship. But the follow-
ing extract from a paper on Education in Ireland, by W.
Smart 0-Batlis, M.P., published by the Central Society of
Education, in 1839, presents such an amusing contrast to
S NIT ill O'l3nt EN'S oratory on the same subject.in 1845, that we
cannot resist the temptation of giving it :
" We cannot avoid attracting notice to the fact, that in a
country in which above four•fifths of the population are Roman
Catholics, the Catholics are excluded from all share in the admi-
nistration and emoluments of the only university which Ireland at
present possesses. 'We regard it as a matter of infinite importance to
the harmony of society in Ireland that the Roman Catholic youth
should be educated in association with Protestants of their own sta-
tion. To those who are about to enter into either the Protestant
or Roman Catholic Church this union in youth is more peculiarly
advantageous, because the wide difference of their studies and pur.
suits in after life has but too natural a tendency to create angry and
embittered feelings, such as new unhappily exist between the
clergy of the different churches in Ireland to an extent hitherto
unknown in any other country in the world. The period of pecu-
liar preparation for the church ought to follow the completion of a
course of general study. Till that course is fully completed, the
Catholic and Protestant ought to be united in their education."
In the writer of the above one might have expected to find
one of the warmest supporters of the Irish Colleges Bill. But,
rlis aliter visurn. The Knight of the White Handkerchief
flourished his white handkerchief against Sir ROBERT PEEL'S
Colleges Bill as stoutly as he now flourishes it against the
union. The stream is, however, now returning to its source.
Another miracle for baffled Mr. O'CONNELL !

The three Presidents of the new colleges are now appointed :
and the appointment of two Roman Catholics and a Presby-
-terian to superintend academical education in Ireland by the
Minister of Irish Protestantism—the Minister taught of
EEDost, and erst loved by RoDEN—is an event, which, in
times more propitious for the physical prosperity of Ireland,
would meet with loud celebration. lint even now this har-
binger of future moral blessing for Ireland should not be
utterly disregarded; and we, who steadily and zealously
supported Sir ROBERT PEEL'S Irish Colleges measure, rejoice
to be able to render thanks and praise for the appointments
with which he is carrying the measure into execution.
