HALIFAX, june -.
The royal steamship ARABIA Capt Stone.
from Liverpool the afternoon of Saturday.
l9th instant, arrived at this port at ! SO
tins L. VI. IN rUut for Il ,stOn
I'm thu Eth. in the House of Lords. the
Bishop Of oxford presented Il petition from
Jamaicn touching ~. slave trade. and called
the attention OF the House generally % the
subject. He contendcd that the present
threatening aspect Of affairs IN the west was

continue Cuba Is provocative of dangerous,
eAtrclnities. Ii Spain would at once rive nm

desire winch many persons in the United
States expressed to annex the island would
b'cntirely removed.
Lord Brpugnam supported the rctition,
and strongly CONDEMNED the policy Of Srain.
fhr t@1rl OF Malinesbury deeply regretted
that the efforts of England to suppress tho
slave trade had not BEEN scc1nd,l by Other
nations. With regard TO ato unhappy
differences, he had admitted to the American
government, as u question of international
law, that England was not entitled TO insist
upon the right OF search, but had also put it
strongly TO the American government whether
they would continue To permit their flag to
be prpsuiuted u the worst Of PURPOSES.
lie had urged the necessity of an OCEAN
police, and that some understanding should
come to between the different maritime
nations which would enable the nationality
oil vessels 10 b. clearly verified withou, any
char &c OF a breach Of international law. and
nc had every reason u believe from a con-
ycrsItlon which he had with the American
Munster that some such arrangement might
be come To- With regard To Spain. it was
notorious that hitherto the moral support
which She had received from England had
materially aided her in resisting the WISHES
oi the United States To annex Cuba, but if
she stall persisted in supporting the slave
trade, It was highly probable that the pres
ent amity Of Great Britain would be cxchang-
cd for Indifference.
Earl ttrey was sorry that there should bo
any attempt 10 renew the slave trade. lilo
thought the United States and France were
solely responsible for its renewal. With
regard 10 the question Of international law.
50 far az he understood it, an American
vessel filled with slaves might leave Africa,
without England being enabled to interfere
with her, notwithstanding the perfect know
ledge Of her character.
Earl Aberdeen said the definition Of inter
national law was quite correct Other peers
spoke On the subject, when the petition was
laid on the table.

Trespass in the sllc Of a vessel BIZ a Dept
Sheriff, under Def, upon an execution in
favor of D. Il. Carlton against one Turner;
same having been attached on original writ.
Plaintiff claimed under a bill of sale from
Turner, dated some time prior to attachment
by Officer. Dctencc-sae from Turner to
Hcrriek fraudulent-and the following were
among the many facts shown. Def. claimed
attachment of vessel before the delivery of
same under bill of sale from Turner. Before
the purchase Carlton rotified lIcrrick not to
purchase of Turner; that they could not set
tie, and Turner was largely indebted to him
and trouble would ensue. Bill of sale was
recorded at a very early hour in the morning
Declarations Of both lIerriek and Turner
were introduced, showing nature of sale
lIerriek before suit did not claim one vessel

only held them as securely for land sold,
valued at one hundred dollars-mlnifeste

WAS most thoroughly Investigated, and many
facts and circumstances elected relative to
the nature and character Of the transactions

ment of Knowles for Dcft and Kent for Pr.

men. Knowles in bis examination OF Plain

the jury retired and soon returned verdict
for Dctt. We have seldom seen a case tried
in this county where 50 much interest was
manifested during the progress ola trial and
such satisfaction exhibited at the result -
Public opinion at the start was that the
right was with Def, for the feeling WIS
general that CD. Carlton one Of the most
honorable men in old Hancock, would charge
no man with fraud unless h, believed and
knew it.
The Col. must have looked with proud
satisfaction upon David r. Carlton who tes-
titled 50 clearly, correctly, and candidly.-
Counsel were unable to produce any confu-
sion in his testimony; in his details of dates,
circumstances, and facts; his correctness and
clearness carried evidence Of truth. After
the juries were dismissed, d. R. Carlton, al
ways generous and manly, entertained the
ID jury at Coombs' SPLENDID saloon where his
friends congratulated him upon the success

West" as it said he intends, we only hope
he will find friends who are worthy of him.

Deer Isle.

Hon. Chas. 4. Spol1ord Of Deer Isle in
forms us that on the 9th of May, from five
to seven hundred persons left the island as
hands, in either coasting or fishing vessels
principally in fishing vessels. Few are aware of
the amount OF business done on this Island in
thu fishing line. The Messrs. Warren at one
point, and the Mcssrs Whitmore at another,
do the largest business; but besides these
larger firms, there are in tho innumerable
creeks, harbors, covcs, and salt water rivers,
which 50 cut up the land that it leaves It
looking more Ike large number Of spider
legs than an Island, large numbers of men
engage in this branch of industry. 1t is
said that there are on this Island near three
hundred sail of vessels, large and small
What blow it would be to repeal the fish
ing bounty, and to change our navigation
laws SO as to permit foreign vessels to take
part in our eoasting trade. This Island had
a population in 1850 OF over 5000; and there
is not town in tie state where so large a
portion of the people obtain their livelihood
by ''doing business upon the mighty deep, :,
as on this Island
The people are also awake to their moral
and intellectual well-being, taking pride in
their schools, and at this time largely occu-
pied in erecting meeting houses. Last year
very handsome Westinghouse was built at
\. W. Harbor, costing 81 900. At this
time our fellow townsman-J. W. Osgood,
is at work building house for the Baptists
at South East Harbor. At the head of the
Island, near Mr.. SCOTS, the Methodists and
Congregatlonalists are about erecting houses
for their respective societies, Another one
is about being built at s.Green's Landing, :.

were any occasion fer iarldions remark-it
was in they being altogether too COOL but

have admitted the article.
