THE CREOLE CASE.

In the House of Lords on the ] 9th Of
FEBRUARY, Lord Brougham brought be-
fore their lordshIp the case ofthe Gre
ole. In reply to this question, the
Earl of Aberdeen Informed the House
that communications had taken place
between the Governor of the Bahamas
and her majesty's Government on the
subject. Her Majesty's Government
had given the subject their most anx-
ious attention, and had satisfied them
selves that there is no existing author
ity fol bringing the negroes ofthe Gre
ole to trial for mutiny and murder, still
less for delivering them up, or detain-
ing them in custody. The Secretary
for the Colonies. Lord StanIy, bad,
therefore, sent out instruction for their
release. -
Lord Denman gave his opinion that
there was no law, authority, or machi-
merry existing by which the Secretary
of State for the Colonies could deliver
up these men to foreign power after
taking refuge in our dominions; and
he declared on the authority Of
the most eminent lawyers, that the
Secretary of State so delivering up
such men to foreign State, would be
liable to the dangers Of an action of
damages for false Imprisonment, and
the still more awful danger Of putting
a person upon his trial in case where
the penalty was death. 1t was very
clear that an alien, seized in his coun-
try for an alledged crime committed
in foreign country, might resist
his apprehension with force and if
found guilty, executed. 1t was de-
sirable that an international jurisdic-
ton should be established by treaty
but the existence of the slave trade
stood in the way.

Ozone of the objections, which
the locos make to the Distribution bill
is that the Federal Treasury needs the
Land money and if it is withdrawn,
recourse must be had 10 increased tax
alton. Thesegentlemen furnish a con-
elusive answer to themselves. by
the disposition of the Land Fund,
which they propose 10 divert from
the Treasury, and instead of giving it
to the States to whom it belongs, they
would have the Federal Government
squander it upon Notifications, break
waters, &c. Mr.. Linn, at the last ses-
sion submitted a proposition to this eff
fecI, which received the support Of
the whole Locofoco party. Mr.. Cal

EXTRAORDINARY PERFORMANCE OF Dl-
VINE WORSHIP.

Yesterday morning divine service was performed
at the institution of the refuge for the adult destitute,
deaf and dumb, in Bartlett's buildings, Holbom.
The congregation was composed chiefly OF deal and
dumb persons and this is the first attempt at instruct
ing in Scriptural doctrines by public worship that
class OF the suffering community laborlng under the
deprivation of the senses of hearing and speaking
ever made. The service was conducted IN the fol-
lowing manner, and presented a most interesting
scene. Mr.. Rosser deaf and dumb gentleman,
performed If 1t may be so termed, selections from
the morning service, which was done by making
signs with his fingers, and the rapidty with which
he did it was wonderful. The Lords prayer was de-
lwered entirely by pantomimical gestures, and
beautiful specimen of expressive silence, After the
morning service, Mr. J. q. Simpson delivered short
but eloquent discourse from the 35th chapter of lsa-
ah, and it was conveyed to his audience through the
medium of signs, he slowly proceeded, by Miss
only eight years of age, who, although neither deaf
nor dumb IS conye. SAINT with the signs as the old
est of the deaf and dumb members OF the Institution
The rapidity Of the chlds motions by which she
yeyed the discourse delivered by MIR. Simpson
astonishing AT the conclusion of the discourse the
deaf and dumb were asked by the same medium Of
signs whether they perfectly understood what had
been delivered, to which they assented The singu-
lar spectacle of the Holy Scriptures being expound-
ed by signs was altogether Of most impressive ma
ture The service will be continued for the present
the institution in Bartlett's buildings every Sunday
morning 1t is in contemplation to have regular
place OF worship in conneXion with this society for
the deaf and dumb portion of the community, Of
whom it is estimated there in London alone seye-
raj thousands, who will thus be enabled to partic-
pate in the benefits OF the publishing of the Gospel
from which they have up to this time been debarred.
