CRIMINAL CoURT--WEDsEsDAY, March 27th.-
United States vs. IYiHiam y. Mullen, charged upon
an indictment for mayhem, by putting out the
right eye of Peter Jones, esq; for an attempt to
mayhem, and for simple assault and battery up
on the said Peter Jones. The trial Of this case,
which was commenced at the opening of the court
this morning, had not been concluded at o'clock,
when the court adjourned Davidge and Semmes,
for the defence.
DUcKs.-For the last few days the Potomac, be-
tween this city and Alexandria, has been covered
with wild ducks, and the gunners have enjoyed
rare sport, by means Of decoys, &c, in thinning
offnumbers of shutters, red necks, blue wings, and
other species Of this waterfowl, for which the
broad Potomac enjoys SO wide spread a reputation
The WEATHER--H has showed here to some ex-
tent on each of the past five days; and yesterday
continuously throughout the entire day. For the
information Of absent ones, however, we may add
that there has been jingiing of sleigh bells
yet, and they need not hurry home on that ac-
count But Il is the exodus of March and, with
the advent of April, we may reasonably hope for
fairer weather

II N a remarkable fact that the feudsl system or
something very like IL, should still prevail in tho
United Kingdom, while IL has been totally de-
stroycd in France. The main pillars Of this sys-
tenn entail and primoReniture and, while
thesc statutes remain In force, IL will Of necessity
continue TO subsist When they were repealed in
France, feudslity In all It's branches ertirps-
ted and IL is hardly possible for II 10 regain
footing In that country.
But the feudal system st this moment existent in
Great Britain IL not identical precisely the same
with that in force two three centuries ago. II
has changed with the change OF times and circum-
stances. But IL has not changed for the better II
is worse and more pernicious In some points nj
present than u ever at any former period.
Formerly a chieftain OF territorial maepste wa,
accustomed 10 support all the members Of his fam
lily and clan but now, with increased wealth, our
large proprietors have managed 70 free themselves
in great measure from all such onerous RESPONSE
blitics. Instead Of finding subsistence for all Of
the same lineage or name, they do not 90 much M
provide generally for their own families. As soon
as they possibly can, they throw them upon the
rentals fall into the hands OF their eldest sons and
into theirs alone. Some Of these favored repre-
sentstives Of noble ancient houses possess q
dozen or bali dozen palaces, and 100000 or
And here IL may very naturally be asked, how is
this pnodigous, this almost incredible sum SPENT
Perhaps in securing Independence for their younger
the comforts Of life, for the hard working pesssntry
on their estates' No such thing. These natural
and urgent claims arc almost totally neglected.
Their sons placed In over paid and unnecessary
Offices, at the expense OF the nation; these help 70
constitute the gentee poor fund.- which draws into
its treasury more than the common poor fund, and
which, as remarked in former letter, 10 most in
geniously dovetsiled into every branch or depart
ment OF the public service Our $50 sdmirsls is
one specimen Of this srtful ooy, and II would be
easy 10 Gull others equally Instructive from the
church, the army, and the colonies. And the pea
ssnts who out their strength and lives In cul-
tivating their fields under the strict, and, in too
many cases, severe msstcrship OF their tenants,
who, being rsckcd with high rents, are almost
driven into this severity, these unfortunate men
are hardly allowed enough 70 keep soul and body
together In Dorsetshire and some other counties.

The Crescent City arrived at New York ON Mon

From the Commercial Adoatis9 we derive the
following
The United States store-ship Southampton sailed
from Panama February %, for Callao, whence she
will proceed direct 70 New York, having received
orders from Washington TO that effect
There was serious disturbance at Panama on
the 2sth Of February, the result of conflict be-
tween party of Americans and the city authori-
ties. An American named James johnson was ac-
cused of theft by the native proprietor Of hotel
and committed to prison. 1t was subsequently
made manifest that the charge was an unjust one,
and there being delay in discharging the pri.
soner, a party was formed who attacked the Jail
and rescued him by force.
Mr.. Pendleton, a New Yorker, on his way To
San Francisco, was robbed at the Mansion House,
in Panama, on the LIST instant of $2,l0O in gold.
