r°411)14 e cannot doubt that, at the earliest
w l'bi;it me ePportunity, after the re-assembling
', some independent Member of the House

of Commons will feel it his duty to come forward with
some motion which shall have the effect of subjecting
the conduct of Governor FITZROY to the investigation,
not of a friendly Commission from the Colonial-c•ffice,
but of an impartial Parliamentary Committee, without
either bias or inducement to personal favour for, or pre-
possessions against, that functionary, or the two officers,
Lieutenant Pnuasorrs and Lieutenant BARCLAY, whose
spirit and sagacity stand so seriously impugned in this
matter. We will not trust ourselves to dwell on the
details which are comprised in the narrative before
us, of that which, if truly recorded, must be de-
signated the disgraceful pusillanimity, the still more
cowardly destructions of officers holding her MAJESTY'S
commission—their want of firmness, their deficiency of
judgment, their lack of resolution, the confusion of their
counsels, the feebleness and absurdity of their acts, the
abandonment of their own duties, and the betrayal of
their country's honour. We say, of these distressing
charges, "if truly recorded"—but we are compelled to
add that we have strong misgivings—they will prove
for the most part, but too well founded. For we
cannot but attach great significancy to the species
of confirmation supplied by the event of these
unhappy operations. What has that been ? Shortly
this —the triumphant success of HEni, the native
leader in all the attacks upon our authority—the twice-
repeated hauling down of our flag—the storming of a
fortified blockhouse which we had occupied ; the ex-
pulsion of a body of our soldiers and sailors from a hill
position, and the utter destruction of the town of
Karakareika itself, and the abandonment of that settle-
ment. Whether the burning of the town was the act of
the warlike Aborigines, or a Smolensko-like coup d'etat
on a miniature scale, at the instigation of the officers who
had so greatly distinguished themselves in the defence
of the post, or of the intelligent Governor himself,
is not, perhaps, clearly ascertained. What is perfectly
clear and indisputably certain is that poor
Captain ROBERTSON nobly performed all the duties of
an intrepid British officer. We lament to find that he
was mof.t severely wounded, and that the gallant party
whom he led on were alsosevere sufferers in the unequal
conflict they had to sustain. But the transactions in
New Zealand offer other matter for anxious reflection,
and other aspects of high moral interest.

Is it not a curious coincidence that in the same seas,
and at nearly the same moment, the national dignity
both of France and of England should have received
some signal affronts from semi-barbarous races
of a Malayan origin ? That things should hare
gone no better in Otaheite and the Marquesas
for the French than they seem to have gone in New
Zealand for the English? Is there not a strong prima
facie ground laid for calling to account the French
Minister for Colonies, and the colonial government of
Lord STANLEY? Or are we to imagine that there is
some potential principle of disorganisation which
affects the mental and bodily energies of European
functionaries established in the islands of the
Pacific and the Southern Oceans ? This last
would be, indeed, the most unphilosophical of conclu-
sions on any mere abstract reasoning. But it is dis-
proved by the practical fact that European civilians
rather develop, in those latitudes, capacities and energy
which could not have been reasonably expected from
them, than fall short of whatever ability and vigour the
exigencies of their new position may demand from them.
This fact seems to have been strongly manifested
in the case of Mr. HECTOR, a solicitor, whose
coolness, activity, and sound judgment in the Karaka-
reika affair, working the guns of the blockhouse, di.
recting the fire of his men, and personally communica-
ting, amidst a shower of balls from the enemy, with the
stockade below him—form so heroic a contrast to the
apathy or something worse, the blundering or something
more, of Lieutenants PHILPOTTS and BARCLAY, and
the police magistrate. But what shall we say
of the incitement under which HER' himself acted,
not a Pagan chief, wedded to the stupid and ferocious
idolatry of his country, but a Christian missionary con-
vert? This is one of the most curious, and perhaps the
most important, aspects of the case. His fanaticism was
fired, not against the English because they had settled
in the land of his birth—for he is fond of our countrymen,
and even in the late hostilities manifested a strong de-
sire to protect those among them whom he reckoned as his
personal friends—but it was fired by the erection of a flag-
staff and the hoisting of our flag. By one of those
unhappy interpretations of events and actions re=
corded in the Old Testament, which led not a few
into the commission of many sanguinary atrocities,
founded on the types of Israelitish tradition, iIEKI
saw in the symbol and the ceremony some intimated
resemblance to the bondage and degradation of the
Jews of antiquity. How many valuable lives have
been sacrificed to this delusion ?

In another part of the paper will be found four let-
ters signed 6' WINCHILBEA and NOTTINGHAM," all end-
ing with these words :—" Regarding as I do the conduct
of her MAJESTY'S Ministers, in the late dismissal of Mr.
WATSON, to be of a most arbitrary and unjust character,

I cannot subject myself to a similar treatment in the
course which I may deem it my duty to pursue in advo-
cating those great Protestant principles which are, in
my estimation, beyond all earthly value." The Noble
Earl has acted wisely. He is a high-spirited man,
rather obstinate in his political and religious principles,
and as he seems to have every disposition to imitate the
Orange magistrate he has resolved in time that the
Conservative Ministry shall not have the satisfaction of
treating him in the same manner. He has washed his
hands of PEEL and Co., and now comes forth
unshackled as the great champion of Protestant principles.
Why did he not, however, with his usual honesty, de-
scribe things by their real names ? He knows well
that Mr. WATSON has not been dismissed for
his adherence to the great principles of the Re-
formation, but for an attempt to keep
up dire hostility between two classes of her 111ATESTY'e
subjects, to endanger the peace and safety of the sister
island, and give the Orange faction unlimited power
over their long-oppressed Catholic brethren. The Earl of

WINCHILSEA must not arrogate to himself the merit
of advocating Protestant principles, while he, in fact, is
disobeying one of the first principles of the Christian

frith—to love our neighbour as ourselves. Were all
of the same stamp to follow his example, we
should have less persecution, and probably, also,
fewer displays of selfish bigotry. These Orange and
High Church magistrates do an immense deal of mis-
chief, and we confidently trust that, when they begin to
imitate the example of their Irish friends, they will
receive at the hands of the Government the same
punishment.

We have received Madrid journals of the 31st ult
The stockbrokers have followed the example of the
shopkeepers, and put a stop to public transactions in the
funds for some time. The price of stock had not been
publicly quoted for several days, but a great deal of bu-
siness had been done outside. The brokers are trying
to avenge themselves for the new regulation that molests
them, and that has been issued by the Minister of
Finances in order to check jobbing. The Gazege con-
tains a royal decree appointing forty-three new Senators,
among whom is the father of NARVAEZ, who has been
created Count DE CAGNADA. The QUEEN left Bilboa
on the Ist for Bergara, on her way to Pampeluna.
The French Princes were expected to enter Spain about
the 3d, and would be received at Bidassoa by Count
D'ALDAMAR. The camp at Pampeluna consists of about
15,000 of the best troops. M. THIERS left Bayonne on
the 31st, on his way to Spain.

The political intelligence in the Paris papers possesses
no interest for the English reader. They consist
chiefly of attacks upon each other, or replies to state-
ments put forth in some London journals, made as if
for the purpose of stirring up the anger of the anti-Eng-
lish party. The Royal Farmily still continue at the
Chateau d'Eu. The KING., takes a great deal of exer-
cise, aid according to all accounts enjoys excellent
health. It is fully believed at Paris that the Queen of
ENGLAND will pay another visit to Treport about the be-
ginning of the present week, and remain for
two days. The France says—" If we are well
informed, Queen VICTORIA will certainly visit
Eu on her return from Germany. This visit,
which was announced last year as a reciprocity of
politeness whilst LOUIS PHILIPPE was at Wind-
sor, seemed to have been indefinitely postponed ; but
it appears that all the Contracs have warmly pressed
their royal relation, and that she has yielded to their
desire. It is hoped at Eu to induce VICTORIA to visit
Paris and Versailles, and orders have, we are assured,
been given to render as brilliant as possible the reception
of the QUEEN and her husband." Whether they will pro-
ceed to Paris and Versailles is another question ; but it
seems to be finally arranged that her MAJESTY will
either proceed to Eu, on her voyage from the Scheldt,
or, at ail events, after visiting the royal children in the
Isle of Wight. M. GUIZOT left Paris on Saturday, for
the purpose of attending the interview between the two
Courts. The correspondent of a Contemporary says:—
" I learn that not only has a courier arrived at Eu with
an intimation that her MAJESTY may be expected to ar-
rive at Treport the beginning of next week, but that M.
GutzoT has started this morning for the chateau d'Eu
for the purpose of meeting her MAJESTY. Queen VIC-
TOAIA is only to remain at the Chateau d' Eau for
one day. She will arrive, it is reported, on Mon-
day, and probably leave on the following day, or at all

events on Wednesday. This visit on the part of her
MAJESTY was quite unlooked for, and is, therefore, the
more gratifying to LOUIS PHILIPPE. It is said that it
was through the Queen of the BELGIANS that it was in-
timated to Queen VICTORIA that the King of the
FRENCH would feel gratified by a visit from her MA•
JESTY on her return from her German trip, and the
QUEEN at once consented to a flying visit."
The following account is given in the Paris papers
of the progress of the Duke and Duchess of NEMOURS
towards Pampeluna :—" After visiting the valley of
Argeles, the defile of Pierrefitte, Cauterets, Pont d'Es-
pagne, Lake de Gaube, Luz Saint Sauveur, the Falls of
Gavarnie, and the Pic du Midi, they had so little time
left them before returning to Bayonne, in their way to
Pampeluna, that they intended to dispense with Bagneres
de Bigorre. The inhabitants, however, were so much
chagrined by the disappointment, that a petition was
drawn up and taken to their Royal Highnesses by the
Mayor, earnestly inviting their presence, were it for only
a few hours. With their usual condescension the royal
tourists consented, and arrived at BagrAires on the Ist,
alighting at the Hotel de France. They were received
with the most grateful welcome by nearly the whole as-
sembled town and neighbourhood. All the authorities
and persons of distinction were received in succession
by their Royal Highnesses, who afterwards gave a
grand dinner, and in the evening, notwithstanding the
fatigues of the day, went to a ball given in honour of
their presence. They took their departure the next
morning, leaving, as they have done at every other
place, a donation for the relief of the poor." MOHAMMED
BEN SERROUR, Envoy from the Emperor of MOROCCO to
the Court of France, had arrived at Marseilles. " He
is," says the Semaphore. " about thirty-five years
of age, of a jet black, but with features which have none
of the negro cast. He was present at the battle of Islay,
in which he commanded a body of cavalry. Soon after
his arrival at Marseilles, he paid a visit to the authori-
ties, and then proceeded to Toulon, preparatory to his
journey to Paris. He has with him a secretary, a cook,
and two slaves."

The following are miscellaneous extracts from the
papers :

" Lieutenant-General Count Harispe, Peer of France, and
Commandant of the 20th Military Division, left Bayonne on
the 2d, for Tolosa, cn an official visit to the Queen of Spain.
M. Thiers left Dayuune an the plat ultimo !or 111.dr;d
but was to stop a few hours at Burgos to see the cathedral."
" The Queen of Spa'n arrived, with her mother and sister,
at Bilboa, on the 29th ult., and were received there by the
civil and military authorities, but without any very extra-
ordinary demonstrations of enthusiasm on the part of the in-
habitants."

" General Delarue, Plenipotentiary from France to the Em-
peror of Morocco, has been promoted to the rank of Grand
Officer of the Legion of Honour ; 'and M. Leon Roches, the
Chief Interpreter to the army of Africa, and Captain Pourcet,
of the staff, aid-de-camp of General Delarue, have been made
officers of the Order."

The Constitutionnel says :—" The Marquis de Villafranca
is hourly expected at Paris. He comes to solicit, it is said,
authorisation for Don Carlos and the Princess to proceed to
Rome, the climate of Bourges being altcgcther contrary to the
heilth of the Princess, who was born in Brazil. If M. de Vil-
lafranca does not obtain passports for Italy, he is directed to
demand from the French Government permission for Don Car-
los and the Princess to fix their residence in such town of the
south as they may choose."
The vessels intended to act against the slave trade are not,"
says the Constitutionnel, " yet ready to proceed to the coasts
of Africa. They are not to set out for six weeks or two
months. Meanwhile communications are exchanged with Eng-
land every day on the subject of the mission which the two
navies are to fulfil together. Recently the admiralty has drawn
up regulations for day and night signals, which the English and
French cruisers are to make use of, in order to mutually recog-
nise each other. It appears that we have approved of all the
dis?ositions of these regulations. It is divided into two parts ;
the first concerning sailing vessels, and the other steamers.
The English navy has been long occupied for its own use with
a regulation of this kind for steamers, collisions of which are
both frequent and dangerous. In France nothing has been
done in that respect."
The Observateur du Rhin announces from Berlin that, in
consequence of the quarrels which have arisen amongst the
German Catholics, and and the schism appearing irremediable,
one party, with Czersky and Prybil at their head, are about to
adopt the Confession of Augsburg, whilst the Rongists will
unite with the Society of the Friends of Light.
A Coblentz letter, of the 29th ult., informs us that the
harvest in Rhenish Prussia was completely terminated, and
that the results were highly satisfactory. The accounts of the
corn harvest are equally cheering from Belgium.
The Cologne Gazette states that, notwithstanding the late
fine weather, nearly the whole of the growth of potatoes in the
Rheni-h provinces is lost. The Chamber of Commerce at
Elber;eldt has sent a petition to the Minister of Finances, pray-
ing that the exportation of potatoes from the provinces of the
Rhine and Westphalia may be interdicted ; and the same ap-
plication is expected to be made by the other Chambers of
Commerce.

MAIDSTONE,
THE ROYAL HUMANE SOCIETY.

In the Express of the 12th of July last, we re-
ported an inquest held on the body of Thomas Whelan,
aged seven years and a half, who was unfortunately
drowned while bathing in the river Medway, on the
Wednesday preceding, although several attempts were
made by a lad of the name Albert Boorman, about 12
years of age, to save him, by diving several times after
him. Struck with the gallantry of young Boorman, we
forwarded a copy of the Express, with a letter, to the
secretary of the Royal Humane Society, thinking that
the youth was deserving of some notice at their hands.
Mr. Charlier, the secretary, with that promptitude and
gentlemanly feeling for which he is so much
,esteemed,
replied instantly to our communication, and forwarded a
copy of the certificates required by the rules of the so-
ciety previous to their entertaining the application.
Those were procured, and we also obtained a handsome
testimonial of the lad's conduct from F. F. Daily, Esq.,
the borough coroner, and a similar testimonial which
was kindly signed by all the jury who were on the in-
quest. We forwarded these documents to the secretary,
and on Tuesday last were gratified by the receipt of the
I following letter :

Royal Humane Society.
Case 14,210. Office, No. 3, Trafalgar-square, Aug. 1845.
Sir,—l have the satisfaction to acquaint you for the in-
formation of Albert Boorman, that the Committee have
awarded him the Society's Honorary Bronze Medallion for his
exemplary and humane conduct in trying to save Thomas
Whelan on the 9th ult., who was unfortunately drowned in the
river Medway. As you have taken such a great interest in the
case, I will forward you the Medal when engraved in order that
you may present it to him.
I am, Sir, your very obedient servant,
J. CHARLIER, Secretary.
Mr. James Phippen, Maidstone.

The promptitude with which this has been attended
to, and the whole proceedings, reflect great credit upon
the Humane Society, and we are proud to record it,
because, upon no distant occasion, when the noble efforts
of a Learned Baronet of this town were similarty re-
warded, it was openly asserted in, many quarters that if
a poor man had performed a corresponding action, he
would have obtained no reward, nor would there have
been arty notice taken of it. One fact is worth a thou-
sand arguments. In this case the good faith of the so-
ciety has been tested, and they have nobly borne out
their professions in showing that it is not rank, but de-
sert that they reward. And now we would ask, why is
a society, based upon such excellent principles, allowed
to he so deficient in their funds as to be unable to extend
their usefulness ? Why are they to rely chiefly upon
metropolitan subscriptions, when the whole country de-
rives a benefit from the institution ? To the inhabitants
of Maidstone we would say particularly, cannot you come
forward with your mites in aid of the funds of a society
which has twice, within a comparatively short period,
awarded medals to your fellow townsmen ? You have
done yourselves much credit in subscribing liberally
towards the erection of houses for a swimming club—and
we wish the principle were carried out still further, for
we are fully sensible of the utility of such things—cannot
you then, acting upon the same motives, support a so-
ciety which has such laudable objects in view as the
Royal Humane Society ? We hope that no arguments
will be required to support our suggestions.—From the
Sussex Agrieu.itural Express, Aug. 30, 1845.

MESSRS. JOHNSTON'S EXPRESSES.—The cork Ex-
amineruf Friday, in acknowledging the enterprising spirit of
Messrs. Johnston and Co., of Dublin, states that it had that
morning received The Sun, expressed by them from Dublin,
in seventeen hours.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL. NEWF3.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
There was but little business done in Cotton at Liverpool
on Saturday. Sales 2,000 bags, at previous rates. Shares
improved a little, with more doing.
In the remarks which were made under this head on Sa-
turday last, as to the notice from the Dir,ctori of the Bank
of England, that the claimants to certain stock, upon which
the dividends have not been demanded for many years, the
principal claimed is 2,0001. with arrears, not 2001., as by mis-
take it was represented.
There are express accounts of the arrival of the West
India steamer the Trent having been off port, but the letters
and papers will not be delivered until late in the day it is
expected.
Not much business has been transacted in the Stock
market to-day. The prices are rather heavy. Consols for
the Account have been just quoted at 98%, and the same for
the first transfer day to-morrow. Exchequer-bills are at
455. to 475. premium ; India Boads at 62a., and India Stock
at 270 and 271.
The only bargains in the Foreign Funds today have betn
in Dutch Four per Cents. at 991%, in the Chilian at 1011,!, in
the Mexican at 3.3%, in the Deferred Venezuela at 1334, and
in Grenada at 22V

Scarcely so much-Liminess has been transacted in the Railway
Shares as on most days of the past week. The prices, on the
whole, may be said to be well maintained. The London and
Birmingham have touched 124, but are now 122 premium ;
the London and Brighton 2714 premium ; the London and
South-Western are a shade lower ; the London and York
are rather higher ; the Manchester and Leeds are in dull
demand, and so are the Midlands. There is a pretty fair
demand for the French lines of railway. The London and
Westminster Bank Shares are at 71/2 % premium.

SOUTHAMPTON, SUNDAY NIGHT.—The Peninsular and
Oriental Company's steam-ship Montrose, Capt. C. Evans,
arrived at half past eleven o'clock, from the Peninsula, bringing
the usual mails. Her dates of departure are as follow :—Gib-
raltar, August 29th • Cadiz, 30th ; Lisbon, Sept. Ist ; Oporto,
2d; V '
igo, 3d ; and Corunna, 4th. Specie, cargo, &c., on
board-111 boxes of raisins, 160 boxes of grapes, 106 boxes of
lemons, 23 packages of specie, 20 head of cattle, one horse,
and a few packages of sundries. Ships of war lying at Gib-
raltar—Her Majesty's ship Phantome, and Flamer steamer.
At Cadiz—the Kestrel and Dolphin yacht. At Lisbon—one
French brig-of-war. The company's steamer arrived at Lisbon
on the Ist of September. The Montrose experienced strong
head winds homeward bound, which accounts for her being
over due. The Trent, West India steamer, had also arrived,
but she brings no news of importance.

COUNTY VOTERS.—A Freeholders' Building Society
was formally established on Wednesday evening in Manchester,
J. Brooke, 'Esq., in the chair, on which occasion no fewer than

moderate, and principally of the present year's growth. The
show of samples was not to say large, while the demand,
from the increased number of buyers in attendance, was
steady. In some few instances, the first qualities of white
produced a trifle more money, say is per quarter, but which
advance was by no means general, since we cannot alter our
previous currencies. In the middling and inferior kinds of
both red and white, a fair average amount of business was trans-
acted, at prices fully equal to those obtained on Monday last.
Upwards of 27,000 quarters of foreign wheat have been im-
ported since our last, only a small portion having been en-
tered for home consumption. The show of samples this
morning was small. For nearly all descriptions, but parti-
cularly for selected kinds, the sale was firm, and previous
rates were readily supported. For corn under lock there
was more inquiry. Holders were firm, and would not sell
except at more money. The accounts which have reached
us to-day from various parts of the country, are to the effect
that considerable progress is making in harvest work. The
general yield is not well represented in some places.
We had about 200 quarters of new English Barley on offer;
but of old qualities the supply was unusually small, that of
fine foreign far from extensive. Grinding qualities com-
manded a steady demand, at full rates of currency ; while a
good clearance was effected in other kinds, at prices quite
equal to those obtained on Monday last. The arrivals of
Malt being on the increase, the Malt trade was dull ; new-
parcels were quite as dear, but the value of
other kinds had, in some instances, a down-
ward tendency, and a clearance was not effected.
The supply of English, Irish, and Scotch Oats was very small,
that of foreign moderate. The Oat trade was somewhat
firmer than was that of last week; but no improvement took
place in value. Beans were in fair supply, and sluggish de-
mand, at barely stationary prices. The arrivals of new Peas
being on the increase, most kiads sold to-day at a decline of
from Is to 2s per quarter. The millers were firm holders of
Flour, and last week's prices were supported. New Mustard-
seed sold fairly, at from 14s to 18s per cwt. In other seeds
very little was doing.

Since Monday last the imports of live stock from abroad
have proved extensive—they have amounted to 200 Oxen
and Cows, 500 Sheep, and 14 Calves, mostly from Rotterdam,
and, for the most part, in excellent condition. To-day we
had on offer 150 Beasts, and 90 Sheep. The demand for
them was tolerably steady, at full prices. The last Go-
vernment Returns give the following imports during the
years 1843, 1844, and 1845, up to the sth of August.

At Hull, nearly 350 head of Beasts and Sheep, including six
Oxen, from the Rob Roy, from St. Petersburgh, the quality
of which, however, has not proved first rate. The supply of
Beasts fresh up from our own grazing districts, this morning,
was seasonably extensive, and in good condition. For the
primest Scots the demand was tolerably steady, at fully last
week's quotations : but all other kinds met a dull inquiry, at
barely late rates. The Bullock droves from Lincolnshire,
Leicestershire, &c., amounted to 900 Short-horns; from
Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, 700 Scots,
Home-breds, and Short-horns ; from the Western and
Midland Counties, 800 Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c. ;
from other parts of England, 400 of various breeds ; from
Scotland, 100 Scots ; and from Ireland, 90 Beasts. Th num-
bers of Sheep were small for the time of year, yet fully ade-
quate to meet the wants of the butchers. Generally speak-
ing, the Mutton trade was heavy, and prices were with
difficulty supported. Prime small Lambs sold at extreme
rates. In other qualities very little was doing. The Veal
trade was steady at Friday's prices. In Pigs rather more
business was transacted at late rates.

SURREY SESSIONS.-7(TIELIS DAY.)

(Before Mr. Pucxmc and a Bench of Magistrates.)
Three gentlemen having taken tie oaths as county magis-
trates,

The CILAIRMAN briefly addressed the grand jury. He
said that there was little in the calendar to call for remark on
his part. The number of eases was in all 41, and none of
these were of a very important character. As compared with
the corresponding period of last year there was a decrease of
30 cases, and the degree of crime was also greatly lightened.
The grand jury then retired, and the petit jury was
sworn in.

FELONIOUSLY WOUNDING TWO CALVES.—JGDICS Simmons,
aged 19, and Reuben Simmons, aged 16, were indicted fur
having wounded two calves, the propesty of Michael Agate,
Ashtead, by shooting them with fire-arms.
Mr. Locke was for the prosecution ; the prisoners were un-
defended.

The case was shortly as follows :—A witness, named Vane,
was at work in a field near a hovel used for the purpose of
keeping cattle. He heard a shut fired, and saw the two brothers
running off in the direction of a wood. On entering the hovel,
he found two calves wounded, one having its eye shot out, and
the other being wounded in the body. The prisoners were sub-
sequently taken into custody.
The offence was shown to have had its origin in revenge,
the younger prisoner for a similar offence having been sent to
Brixton for two months.

James Simmons said, " It was not me done it."
. Reuben Simmons—" I know nothing on it."
The CIiAIRMAN summed up, and the jury returned a ver-
dict of Guilty.
The prisoners were stated to here borne a very bad cha-
racter previously, the younger one having teen convicied on
two former occasions.

The sentence of the Court was that James be sent to the
House of Correction at Guildford for nine month, with hard
labour, and that Reuben be imprisoned in Brixton for the same
