From the Spectator Of April 9th.

The Times correspondent at Khar-
toum teIegraphed on March 10th that
General Gordon's attack on the in
surgtnt >heikhs had been defeated,
partly by the cowardice of the Egyp-
Iian soldiers, who broke without fight
ing, and partly by the treachery of
two Pashas, who rode into the square

After the wet weather towards the close
Of last year we had moderate rains in
January and February, since which the
weather has been rather dry, last month
giving only 4 or 5 lines of rain. The pre-
sent month has opened with a favourable
change On Friday morning last there was
a fall of 3 or 4 lines accompanied with
several claps of thunder, and there have
been some refreshing showers since. The
dry weather told heavily on flowers and
vegetables and the grass was mostly
parched up, but there had been no loss
worth speaking of among the cane plants.
The present promising change is, however,
generally welcome.

On Monday an Old man residing in
Christiansted, named Henry James, poison
ed himself by drinking a quantity Of
"bush medicine" which had been prepared
for his use; and died within an hour from
drinking the decoction. There are no
doubt many valuable medicinal plants in
the West Indies; but their use, frequently
abuse, by ignorant persons is to be con
demned as likely to be injurious, or even,
as in this instance, fatal.

hey were tfled by COurt-martIa ana
shot, by General Gordon's order.
The Mahdi has, moreover, rejected
the SultanShip OF Kordofan, and sent
to General Gordon a Detvish's robe
with on order to turn Mahommedan.
The General is, therefore, standing on
the defensive; but in his last letters
he hoped, when the Nile rises, to give
Il good account Of his enemies, the
steamers then aiding his efforts. Steam
ers are excellent places for Egyptian
troops, IA they cannot run away. The
Times correspondent, Mr.. Power, af-
firms constantly that General Gordon
is expecting a British army but the
Government declares that he has ex-
pressed no such expectation, and that
it was we'll understood when he went
II that he must depend upon his
own resources. They decline to send
a small force of cavalry from Berber,
as the physical difficulties would be
too great; but hint HAT should it be
needtul, when the season is better,
material means may be employed to
aid General Gordon to carry out the
plan he may finally propose. There
is no present appearance that Khar-
toum, which, ii must not be forgotten
lies under fire from the Nile steamers,
will be taken by the besiegers.
Lord Harrington on Thursdaymade
his promised statement on affairs in
the Soudan. He declined to answer
certain points in Sir Stafford North
cotc's question, but explained that
General Gordon had proposed to make
Iebehr Pasha Governor of the Fas-
tern Souuan, with supreme power.
The Government had rejected that
proposal, fearing that Zebehr would
found a great slave holding State,
which would ena Egypt, and had
asked General Gordon to remain in
kharloum until he could release the
garrison and hand I'VE the city to
other native rulers. They were still
awaiting his reply. He had never
suggested a military expedition for
the relief of Khartoum, but had UNI,
dprstood from the first that he was to
depend on his own resources. 1t is
impossible to relieve Khartoum from
Suakim, owing to physical difficulties,
and though IA small force might be
sent to Berber, that would be of
little use. The Government acknow-
lodged a great responsibility for Cen
eral Gordon's safety, but in view of
all the facts, lit was not possible for
them to state the measures which
might ultimately have to be taken to
discharge that responsibility" Sua-
kim would be protected by British
ships, but garrisoned by Egyptian
troops,-the only weak point in the
statement. Lord Harrington conclud-
ed by refusing to make any general
statement as to policy in Egypt until
the eff ct of the Soudan complication
upon that policy should have been
more thoroughly perceived.

1t seems that the Jackson Wing is
about to turn the laugh on the papers
which have been skeptical regarding
the Forked Deer Canal scheme. Two

charge of the Muscle Shoals canal
work, and Capt. j. j. Williams, who
has been Capt. Eads' principal lieu
tenant on the Baritaria canal-say
that the plan is practical and that il
will not be very costly or difficult,
This indeed begins to look like some
thing might be done with it, and we
hope to see work begun at no distant
day. 1t will develop fine scope Of
country and reduce freights greatly

wisdom put into practice in this city
every Sunday, which is worthy of be
ing published for the edi6cation OF
the whittier and richer followers of the
Nazarene. 1t is the custom of the
negro Methodist Church, the one that
worships in a wooden house on the
hilltop, which sports a sort of pepper
box for a bell tower, to require its
members to walk up in procession,
every Sunday morning, to table
within the alter railing, and each deN
post thereon shining quarter of a
dollar. By this appeal to religious
generosity and human pride the col
lections of that church aggregate
$4,000 per annum. Every member
contributes, which cannot be said,
am told, of any white church in the
city.
