last year a commission from the Colonial 0MC1,".-
rected to Chief Justice Scarlett and the Attoinei-Clelll.`,
was executed, at Falmouth, Trelawny, upon the saber''
namely, the complaint made by a person of the Da.nl_te
Benjamin against the Magistrates for alleged past
and violation of the slave law. The report of the Co'
sioners was, it is understood, carried to England by the Co`
lonial Chief Justice, W. A. Scarlett, being also-on-therf;
mission. It appears that the Colonial Office was not iow7 ,
with the report, and instituted another Commission," t
rected to the Attorney-General (till his Majesty's 111
deall`;
be known). Hugo James attempted to execute it .4't
Falmouth, Trelawny, when a degree of angry feeling...".
displayed hitherto unknown in the island. The OP'
gistracy, to a man, declared, rather than submit to the

reiterated insult of having their characters impeached by*
tribunal unknown to the Constitution of the coed...
they would, one and all, throw up their commissions.
result has has been, that the Magistrates have solemotr:i
fused to recognise this new Commission ; and the exc'
indignation of all classes of the inhabitants against this'll
tempt is stronger than ever before witnessed here.

Papers have been received from Bombay, bilt
they are of old dates.

The Allgemeine Zeitung of the 25th API.'
contains a long article, copied from the Courier
of Smyrna, the main object of which is t°
impute bad faith and ambitious designs to the
President of Greece, who is accused of reviving
and fostering rebellion in Candia.

Letters received from Holland bring a Orli
curious account of the new and awful system
warfare which the Turks are going to adopt in
the ensuing campaign. Orders have been give"
to the Turkish Commanders, that on the sr
proach of the Russians to a town they are w
dig up the churchyards, and bring the dead
bodies into the houses ; the inhabitants are in-
stantly to leave the towns :—should the Ruoil
take possession of these places a pestilence oily
immediately assail them.
If the Turks can muster no better weapone'°(
defence than the dead bones of their ancestor'
we apprehend their cause is as hopeless as

" The waveless calm—the slumber of the dead,"
and the dust of their ancestors, in that paitiol9t
region at least, is not endued with the same iv'
spiration as that of—

" Thoae who at Marathon and Leuctra bled."
