Our obliging correspondent at Norfolk has
furnished US with Bermuda papers OF the
81 and 10th ult. but they contain NO article
ofimportance. Nevertheless they afford an
imperfect view Of the practical operation
oFuur commercial restrictions. There ar
yipsa at the two ports OF Hamillon and ST.
George, from the cath Jaau,ry TO the 10th
FEBRUARY, thirty-one vessels, oil which six
teen, on an average of one day. were from
the Uailel States, two from London, and
the other thirteen, from the British West
lnian colonies. In the same period the
clsarances were forty-two, of which twen-
,y-seven were for the United States, and the
remainder for those colonies.
This conflict OF interest and regulations
has in view, upon our part. nothing but
participation in the carrying trade, which.
according to the established laws of naviga-
tion, adopted by Great Britain, is denied
to US. To US it appears, that this cannot be
secured in any equal and equitable degree,
without prohibition OF the trade with Ber-
nuda, except as far as may be requisite, it
deemed incumbent upon our humanity, TO
enable her to obtain the necessares OF life.
This indulgence we gave her in the war o
the revolution, on the ground of neighbour
hood aud of the professions the Islanders
made Of sympathy in our struggle. Butte n
years after the peace, they gave proof o.
their ingra.ituds, by sending forth an I'M
paralleled swarm Of privateers, which de-
solated our unsuspecting commerce, under
the treacherous orders of the British counc il
OF Nov. 1896.
Being only two hundred leagues from our
coast, the islands OF Bermuda, used as an
satrspot, do not make as fair division of
the carrying trade as we ale entitled to-
Considering that We furnish the British CO.
Ionies with the absolute necessaries of life,
IN exchange for mere iuxurie., and articles.
which enter into competition with our own
productions, We might, willis: the British
government remains obstinate, engross The
whole OF the carriage, except shat would
give employment to the drosers only, in
transporting them iron the foreign colonies
at their dOoIs. tied. Rep.

FROM MISSOURI.
CantOnment Of 81. Peters, ;


Sir-When had the honor to address
you, on the 10th inst. from the DISPOSE
tons then manifested by the Sussitongs, I
had no hope Of obtaining the surrender Of
the murderers of our people on the Mis-
souri,; but, contrary TO my expectations,
one Of the murderers, and an old chief,
self-devoted in the place of his son, were
voluntarily brought in and delivered up
yesterday. The ceremony Of delivering
them was conducted with much solemnity;
a procession was formed at some distance
from the garrison, and marched to the
centre Of our parade; it was preceded
by Sussitong, bearing the British flag;
the murderer and the devoted chief fol-
lowed, with their arms pinioned, and large
splinters OF wood thrust through them
above the elbows. TO indicate Gas UNDER
stood) their contempt Of pain and death.
The relations and friends of the prisoners
followed, and Oh their way Joined them
in their death song. When they arrived
10 front Of the guard, the British flag was
laid on fire, prepared for the occasion,
and consumed; the murderer gave up his
medal, aud both the prisoners were sur
rendered. The old chief / have detained
here as hostage; the murderer I have
sent to St. Louis, under proper guard,
for trial, presuming that is course you
will approve.
am much indebted to Mr.. Colin
Campbell, the interpreter, for his great
exertions in bringing this affair to happy
issue; the delivery Of the murderer is to
be attributed solely to his influence over
the Sussitougs-
With the highest respect, l have the
honor 10 be, sir, your obedient servant,

PROTEST.


CAROLINE REGINA
6 To the Lords, Spiritual and Temporal
10 Parliament assembled.
The Queen has learnt the decision oil
the Lords upon the bill now before them.
In the face Of Parliament, Of her family,
and Of her country, she docs sclemnly pro-
test against 1t.
Those who avowed themselves her
prosecutors, have presumed 10 sit in jues.
ment on the question between the Queen
and themselves.
6 Peers have given their votes against
her, who had heard the whole evidence
for the charge, aud absenied themselves
during her absence.
g Others have come TO the discussion
from lhe Secret Committee, with minds
bisssed bya mass Of SANDER, which her
ensmies have not dared to bring forward
10 the light.
/" The Queen does not avail herself Of
her right to appear before the Committee,
for to her the details Of the measure must
be matter of Indifference and unless
The course of these uuexampled proceed
ings should bring the bill before the other
branch Of the Legislature, she will make
no reference whatever to the treatment
experienced by her during the last twen-
ty-fve years.
She now most deliberately, and before
God asserts, that she is wholly innocent Of
the crime laid TO her charge, and she a.
waits with undated confidence the fiuai
result Of this unparalleled investigation. "
