Wa need not foliow Charles Napier through the course of his rervicen on board the Mediator, the Renommée, and the Courageux.In November, 1807, he received his first command.He was then promoted 10 the rank of acting commander, and received the charge of the bog Puttusk.With this vessel he performed one or two exploits by no means inconsiderable.In August, 1808, he wus removed into the Recruit ; and in the September followin + had a smart action with the Diligente, French corvette, ott Antigua, The enemy finully escaped, but the action became somewhat memorable from the fact that the vonug commander had his thigh broken by à shot, and was thus visited by a lameness which never entirely left him, It was in the Reeruit that he performed such service in chasing, retarding, and unnoying the French vessel D\u2019Haupoult, that on the surrender of the French Admiral to the British squadron, the former paid a very handsome compliment lo Napier and his line erait.On delivering up his sword the Franch admiral asked the name of the little vessel which had so harrassed and pursued him, and being told that she was called the Recrnit or Conscript, he replier, says the bioarapher, ¢ with a shake of the head, ¢Recrnit 7\u2014no, that no consesipt\u2014tbat one very old soldier.\u2019 »?Alter this comes a brief pause in Napier\u2019 s naval career.He did not receive from the Admirslty the command which he expected, although he was allowed to retan the rank of post-captam, conferred upon him for his services by Sir Alexander Cochrane.He returned therefore to Scotland, attended the University ol Edinburgh, end studred modern languages, history, chemistry, and mathematics.Being naked whether he would not also atlend the lectures on moral philosophy, then given by an emnnent professor, Napier, we are toid, replied, eharacteristieally, \u2018 I can\u2019t say that know exacily what moral philosophy meaus, but whatever it is I\u2019ll have a rap at il,\u201d During his stay in Scotland he became an ardent am! fearless, although not perhaps very accomplishad or graceful rider, and had many = gallop alter hounds.Smollett would probably have been surprieed could he have heard the remark made by Sir Charles Napier\u2019s biographer, to the effect that every sailor 18 in these days a bold rider.In the time of Commodore Trunnion and Lieutenant Hawser, the seaman had not attained this reputation.Rut Charles Napier was not a man who could Inng devote himself 10 the atudy of moral philosophy, or even the somewhat more congenial pursuits of the hunting-field.Weary of a shore going life, \u201cnot having,\u2019 in his unwilling 1a be idle,\u201d he cast about him for some scene of action in harmony with his adveninrous taster.Naturally enough hia mind fixed upon the army in Portugal, under the command of Lord Wellington, He had more than one reuson for desiring to see some of the sights then tempting adventurers and sdlers 10 that part of the world.In the first place, he belonged, even in his earliest years, to that race of beirgs now fast fading, we do not grieve to ray, off the earth, who liked fighting of any kind for mere fighting\u2019s sake.\u201cCharley Napier,\u201d says an old messmate, *¢ was never thoroughly happy unless seated astride a four-and-twenty pounder, with shot and shell whistling about his ents!\u201d From felicity of this kind he was vety unwilling to absent himsell awhile ; and Wellington\u2019s cam- paigna seemesl 10 ofler him the most favourable chance then attainable anywhere upon earth.But he had another reason too\u2014for he wished to pay a visit 10 his cousins, that band of renowned and heroic brothers, then attached to Lord Wellington®s army, each of whom was afterwards to achieve a distinet individual celebrity of his own.George Napier was then a captain in the 52nd Light laluntry ; Willinm, the historian of the Peninsular War, held equal rank in the 43rd ; both these regiments wero altached to the Light Division ; aud Charles, the future conqueror of Scinde, had oblained a few montha ofabsence after the events of Corunna, and joined Lord Wellingtor\u2019s army as un ama- leur.Ù Charles Napier, the seaman, landed at Oporto in September, 1810, and in time to be piarent at the memorable batlle of Bu- saco.Immediately on landing he made for the head-quarters of the British army, and arrived ¢ late on the night of the 25:h September, 1810, tired ont, and nearly lamished, round which, in various altitudes, reclined a group of Buush officers, \u2018amongst whom he easily recognized his three brother-cousins, Charles, George, and William Napier.\u201d There 1s something peculiarly atiraciive and «preturesque about this meeting of the Na- piers around ihe camp-fire,, A painter might select a far less striking subject thun the moment of greeling, when the young seaman, thus unexpectedly arrived, was recog: nised by his heroic group of cousins on -the heights of Busaco.harles Nhpier stayed to nee the whole of the: action, and to be delighted with the more brilliant, varying, and comprehensive aspect of war, as \u20181 shows self on land.He witness ed the scenes which look place daring the two following days unfil ile close of the great Busaco action, in the company, principally, of his namesake, the future hero ol Scinde, Indeed, during some of the preliminary skirmishes, he received a wound in the leg.On the 37.h, the day of the batite of Basaco, the pair were in the thickest of ihe fight.Our Charles Napier accompanied the army of Lord Wellingion in tie retreat 1o the famous iuies of Torres Vedras, within which he remained until the month of November follows ing.Ha wan a frequent guest at Wellingion?s table, and amused the conqueror not a little by the simplicity and brusque energy of his remarks.Napier did not much appreciate, at this time, the cansumate skill of Weullington\u2019s tactics, and could hardly understand why the army should remain so quietly entrenched behind its unassailable lines, while its French adversaries were 80 oloss at hand.Napier had then, and since, the same fanh in a sudden rush upon an enemy as Garibaldi basin the present day.From a letter writen by his cousin, Charles Napier, we learn that « Lord Wellington lately said to him Cour Charles Napier), ¢ | could easily beat the Rraoch, bat England han no other army, and it would cost me 10,000 men: so we mum hase prudence, and fight when they mus lose mea, and we no\\.\u201d» - : It was probably dering these brief cate paigning experiences that Napier ihe taste for operming on land which be allerwa da 00 strikingly displayed.His am- 9 10 0s to have Jed him more lo the career-of & soldier tian to that of à carter.In Portugal and in Syria, the exploits which he performed with apparently the ost delight own words, \u201cinterest 10 get employed and, at the bivouac fire on the heights of Busaco,.to himself were those in which be amadied the soldiers past, and led a band of followers to a bayonet charge over rook and sand, and tothe rout of à surprised enemy who had befieved their position unassgilable.The days of Prince Rupert or General Monk would have very well suited Black Charles \u2018as ge Napier eovsins used to call him), when The bern who had led & cavalry charge to-duy might direct the manmpvres of a squadron to-Imarrow.In 1811, Napier\u2019 was appointed to the Thames, a 32 gun frigate, and was employed in the Mediterranean, chiefly on the coast of Calabria.He had a sort of roving commission 10 harass the enemy ms much as he could ; and this was just the kind of service in which he delighted, Dorning his adventures here he captured the island nf Ponza\u2014an exp'oit to which he always looked back with great pride, and which fornished him with a nom e guerre of which he was no little vain.As Don Carina de Ponaa he assumed the command of the Portuguese fluel, (wenly years alter; and as Carlos de Ponza he drew up a tender of his services to Guribaldi twenty-six years still nearer to our own time.After the capture of Pouza, Napier waa appoinied to the Evoryalnes a vessel of much superior enpacity to the Thames, and was engaged in the blockade of Toulon.Vhen the war with France terminated so far, in 1814, by the dverthrow of Napoleo:, Captain Napier was appointed lo take part in the expedition up the Polomac, the Government having determined to bring the struggle then going on with America to as prompt a close ns possible.Napier, with his Euryalus was the second in command of the, Poromac expedition ; and has himea!t left 10 the public a very vivid, apd, even to uprofessional readers, a vary intelligible uscount of the intricata and diffienl( nature of the undertaking, and the manner in which the difficulties wera met and conquered.In this expedition, and in the subsequent operations againat Baltimore, Captain Napier rendered the most signal service.The commander ot the Potornac expedition said, in his depateh, To Captain Na- \u2018pier [ owe more obligations than [ have words 10 express.\u201d Tha Government have folly appreciated the result of ihe operations, but unaccountably overlooked the services of the second in command.While various promotions and honours distributed to other officers engaged 1n the aflair, © Captain Napie:,\u201d says his relative and biographer, ¢ received nothing for his exertions but a shot in the neck.\u201d In June, 1815, however, he received the Companionship of the Bath.Shortly, after, the Enryulis was paid off, Napier married a lady lo wbum he had been long attached, and a blank of many years took place in his career of active naval service.Those years comprised some peaceful seasons of domestic happiness in England and in tbe neighbourhood of.Paris, and a long course of incessant travelling through France, lia!y, and Switzerland.© Daring this tour, which was accomplished,\u201d churacienisticsily enough in an enormous travelling-carrisge, dnven four-in-haod by Napier himself, and by him slyled ¢ the three decker,\u2019 oar gallant captain achieved, we believe the only poetic teat which it was given lo his varied oarrer to master.It wus when visiting the island of St.Pierre, the favourite retreat of Jean Jacques Rousseau, that the heroie sailor received the first and last inspiring visit from the muse.\u2014 In the Siranger\u2019s \u201cofthe tittle hotsl, the visitor may read the following lines : \u2014 \u2018The English, whe travel more than all other nations together, \u2019 : Collect in great towns to enjoy the dblights of the w T.re But here this Isle formed for love and delight, Few seem to have soul to pass even the night!

JEFF.DAVIS.The President of the Southern Coulederacy was inaugurated at Richmond, on the 22nd instant.The inaugura! address appears in an extraof the Ezaminer, und unlike American documents of this description, occupies only the space of an ordinary newspaper column, Ou; time will not permit us to give it in exlenso, we therefore merely glunce at its more preminent features.Class legislation, directed not to the general wallare, but 10 the aggrandizement of the Northern section of the Union, culminating in a warfare on the domestic institutions of the South, he describes as the cause of secession.Reviewing the first year of the:r hislory, he says 8 new government has been established and its machinery put in operation over an area exceeding seven hundred thousand square miles.The confederacy has grown from six to thirteen states; and Maryland, already united to them by hallowed niemories and material inierests, will, he believes, when able to speak with unstifled voice, connect her destiny with the South.He speeks of the battles that have been fought aud of the siages that have been conducled, and while he admus that the tide for the moment 18 against them, the final result in their favor, he asserts, is not doabiful.The period is near at hand, he predicts, when thie Federal government must sink under the immense load of debt which they have incuried.While the Svuth has had its trials and its difficulties, Mr.Davis asserts that they have Tñamtained the war by their own unaided exertions ; and that they have neither asked nor received assistance from any quarter.He then alludes to the subatitation of a permanent for a provisional government, at this the darkest hour of the siruggle ; then points to tbe successes and the victories which had covered their arms with glory, at the same time acknowledging ihat they had recently met with a serious disaster.But, he adds, in the heart of a people resolved to be free, these disasters tend but to etimulate to increased resistance.The address concludes with the following words: \u2014\u201c With humble + gratitude and adoration acknowledging the * Providence which has so visibly protected the Confederacy during its brief but eventlul * career, to Thee, oh God, I trustingly eommit *¢ myself, and prayerfully invoke Thy biees- \u201c ing on my country and its cause.\u201d STREET RAILWAY.We hear that an application is to be made to Parliament at the coming Session, for a charter to incorporate a Street Railway Company, and we hope the report is correct.So far as the experience of Toronto and Montreal are concerned, the experiments have proved not merely satisfactory, but in the bighest degree beneficial to both the stook- holders and the poblic.We believe thar when the season closed in Montreal, there were not less than twenty.eight cars con- THR QUEBEC GASETTR, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 33, à railway guing 1e the Belvidors, s considerable village would immudiately spring vp iu is

to cail tbe attention of the civis sushorities, and especially of those of them wbo more particularly supervise the waler works, to a gresi\u2014a really grest\u2014hard- ship in connection with the supply ol water to those portions of the eity not favoured with conduqgrs.I the fact were nol known, it could Lardly be believed possible that while the mains pass up from Mount Pleasant snd through a cross street to St.Louis or Grande Allée, thousauds of residents in these localitios and between the two great thoroughfares have to procure water through carters, who ate obliged to go down to John\u2019s gate for it, so that it costs the consumers from ls.34.to 1s.6J, per barrel.If the object of the corporation were to make the ditliculty of getting water as graat as possible, one could hardly imagine » more effectual mode of accomplishing the object.The carters pay 2d.a barrel and it 1s not by auy meaus an extravagant charge they make for the carriage of it from 1 to 1} mile i but :f two more pumps or hose were opened at convenient distances, where the carters could be supplied, they could carry for 6d.and make better by it, and if insiead of charging 24.per barrel, the carters paid 3d., the charge of attending the hose would easly be defrayed.la this way large numbers would be benefitted and nobody would be injored.Where oue barrel is now used, two or three would probably be taken greater cleanliness would be encouraged, and alarge amount of comfort at present arbitrarily denied\u2014and for no season whatever that we know of\u2014would be enjoyed.Why not have a hose near the Mount Pleasant Tuli-gate?Why should the hundreds of artizans and laborers in the village just beyord be obliged to do with such scanty supplies as they may catch from the heavens or meit from snow ?And why should there not be a hose in St.Louis suburbs, from which the numerous in- habilants could get water at a moderate price ?In other counties there are pumps and fountains all over the cities, and every means is taken to make as wide a distribution as possible of that must sanitary of the elemeuts\u2014 water\u2014but it seems we have yet to learn the lesson.Again wa earnestly recommend to our City Fathers an early modification ol their present system of water distribution.MILITARY ROWDYISM.We are sorry to learn that the Guards and the citizens of Montreal do not agree very well.On Wednesday, four of the Scots Fusiliers and one of the Grenadiers, were ANIMOSITIES BETWEEN ENGLAND AND AMERICA, Under thie title, we tind the report of à dise course in the Zroy Daily L'Tmes, preached by the Rev.Mr.Buckingham, of that eity.The extracis given below nre cr:ditable to the preacher\u2019s feelings, as à man and 8 Christian.His humane and enlarged vision can discern and appreciate the sufferings of othar populations in fureign lauds ; and whils he is strictly fanhful to his own nation and people, be can sympathise with others in their actual or threatened perils of deprivations.His discourse stunds in marked and welcome contrast with the eituperative eloquence which has unlortunately become so common on both sides iu the discussion of our most serious in- ternationat aflairs.But the war we are pursning 15 carried on by us, not in the stivets of Charleston and New Orleans, but fur more in those of Manchester, Preston, and Liverpoo' ; aud the weapon we wield in our hands smiles backwards upon our friends as we whirl it, belore it resches its aim in kort.England has more than two thousand {mills for the manufacture of cotton.She has in them 860,000 operatives dependent upon cotion for wages and for life.We cannot suppose that each operative represents less than one other person, a parent, a child, or a wile al home, in health or sickness; and thus 700,000 persons find their lives endangered by the clasing of the cotton ports of this country.But even so large a number\u2014nearly a8 many, indeed, us the whols population of New York \u2014is tar from represunting ull who depend for lite upon the same interests.When the fiy- wheel in the cotton factory ceases 1s revolutions, and the fires of the engines are extinct, not alone the operative in the mill is dismissed to his brendless home,\u20141il trades are closely interwoven ;\u2014the fire of the blacksmith svon dies in ashes; the hammer of the earpanter is still ; the laihe ol the builder of machinery rests unused ; from trade to trade, silence spreads through all the shops.The number of sufferers is more likely to be counted by millions than by any smaller number.- + - * > Ave we responsible for the dangers of the English peopte?If the dangers sud the causes are traly set forth, who doubts that we are so ?-\u2014True ; we have a legal right lo close the porls of Our Southern States.No nation in the world has any legal right to lake exceptions 10 our measure.Bat legality in the courts of this world is often illegalily before God ; and wae have no Christian right to make a long-continued blockade, by which a friendly power on its people shall be brought to suffering.True; Eugland would have done no less by us, were our situations reversed ; but the principles her conduct manifests in dealing with other nations constitute no law of right.And itthe views of danger presented are correct, [ do not hesitate 10 say, that justice, humanity aud religion demand of ua, ere long, to open the ports of our country to the cotinn trade ; and though they may have been closed in thoughtlessness, they cannot be continued cluse, without national crime, and the dangers of a just retnbution.-.+ * - .- It is true, the animosities of England are un-Chri>tian.but it little becomez us to make mueh corm lant of them.And we greatly mistuk.© ten we feel as af it was England taken to the Police Station for having savage- ly assaulted a man named Frederick Provost.It appears the unfortunate man had his leg broker and received several wounds on the head aud face.The soldiers were no sconer confined tn the cell than they gave way to the | most outrageous excesses.They broke the bed into pieces ; smnashed a thick glass window, and damaged the partitions of the adjeining cells.Not content with this they hurled the fragments of the broken beds through the grating at the top of the cell, and struck Constable Galarneau above the eye, inflicting such a sevete wound that the man was rendered unfit lor duty.Finally, a party of the] Guards arrived, and look the five prisoners away with them.It 1a the opinian of Dre.Lepro- | hon and O'Leary, who examined Provost, that it will be six months before his leg can heal, and it is questionable if he ever recovers the full use of it.The assailants were somewhat under the influence of liquor.Cp FORTIFICATIONS.The Montreal Commercial Advertiser says \u2014 We understand that exlensive fortifications stantly employed, each of them capable of sccommorlating some twenty or more persons, and they were nearly all the time full.We have also heard that the gains had, so far, been at the rate of aboot forty per cent.to the lessee, after paying a fhaadsume sum to the Company for the money invested.The lines in Montreal run each something like two miles, we believe, and the pussengers are carried\u2014if they choose\u2014 the whole distance for five cents.Now, Quebec admite of two lines, viz.: one from the St.Vallier Toll-gate to the Champlain market, which would be fully two miles, and another from the Toll-gate at Mount Pleasant to St.John\u2019s Gate, or if the eity could be entered, to Dexter\u2019s hotel, one mile.Both these lines would pay admisably.On the former, a rate of 6 or 7 cents would not be loo large, but on the latter 5 cents would be sufficient ; and with these fares we are confident a dozen cars on each line would be always occupied.If the cars on the St.John streot line were to go as far as the Belvidere Road, 10 cents might be charged from thence to town, or from sny point beyond the toll-gate, and 5 cents from the within ide.A similar distinction might be made on the other line, a half-way mark to be fixed for the purpose of dividing the fare ; and to prevent confusion, payment should always be exncied on enter- mg.With a sufficient number of cars, we have no doubt whatever that the sroprietors would reap large profits, {or few persons would walk, excepting lor exercise.There is no sther city in Canada whers two particular streets are 50 much travelled as St.John street and St.Paul street in Quebec, und a very alight acquainianes with the topography of the city at once gives the reason.\u2014 The other longitudinal streets are hardly used as arenes, but almost every one resident in the suburbs goes by St.John until near his dwelling, sod then takes the croes stirset.From the Lower Town to St.Rochs there is no shows ; people must go through St.Paul street, and then they may choose between several others, but Des Fossés and St.Joseph streets take nearly ull the tra.wel, and the latier being a fine wide thoroughfare, and the most direst, would afford ample room for a track, even foriwo, if thought ure about lo be commenced on the Island of Orleans below Quebec, on the line of the St.| Danciations of American Slavery, but give the thal hates is, because à few newspapers express lo maligoity of editors and correspondents, or a few members of the Parliament give utterance 10 similar feelings.We have reason to believe that the hearts of the great mass of the English people are with us.Thousands gather 10 hear the strongest de- most warm hearted applause 10 our lellow- countrymen among ihem, atlempting to set forth American ideas and the progress aud hopes of our uation.Doubtless, the heart of the Queen of England is with us.Did she not send ua her first born, as a token of her good will?and can any one doubt that she cherishes deeply in her heart the recollection of the tokens of Kindly regard which we offered him for his mother\u2019s sake, and the sake of his native land 7 and was not her husband, for whom she mourns, a faithful friend to us ?and shall not such convictions plead with us 10 disregard the noisy utterances of the heated animosity of the few, and to quiet any animosities that our own quick passions may have enterlained?Indee!, we are but England ourselves, transported across the wave.We can scarca call England any longer mother land, we have been here so long, and have so much developed the national characteristics, that the tie which binds us to ihe home of our fsthers is closer than that which binds the mother and child.The American who dues Truxnssez,\u2014This Siate never seceded williugly, bot like Kentucky, Virginia aud Norils Carolina, emusgled out of

\u2014\u2014 ess FATAL LOCOMOTIVE EXPLOSION.A few minutes belore ten o'clock yesterday morning, one of the locomotives (No.158) belonging to the Grand Trunk Railway Company, exploded with great violence 1n rear of ihe Asylum, near the Queen street crossing of tbe Northern Railway.At the time the explosion took place\u2014the shock of which was felt in the eity\u2014the engine was standing on the track, preparatory 10 taking down a train of freight cars to the Don station.The engineer James O'Hara, and the fireman, Patrick Spillan, were thrown into the air and fell heavily on the track, the former being found lying between the cab of the engine and one of the driving wheels.He is very seriously injured, but yesterday the medical n.en in al- tendance expressed hopes that he wou'd recover.Poor Spillan} the fireman, received fatal injuries internally, and death put an end to lns sufferings a tew hours after the sad occurrence.The men were conveyed withaut loss of time to the house ol Goudy, the switch- man, and had everything done that humau aid could suggest for their relief.Drs.Workman, Lawlor, and Russell were the first medical gentleman wha reached the spat.Information was conveyed to the wife of Spillan.He was perfectly conscious to the last, and spoke to his wife and those who stood at his bedside in a clear tone of voice, although he appeared lo be in great agony.A few minutes before he died, he looked anxiously round on those who were in the room and said, \u20181 will bid you ali good-bye,\u201d then turned his face to the wall and expired in a few minutes.The engine is a total wreck, the casing is torn like paper from the tubes of the boiler.Severa! of the tubes have snapped asunder as if they were so many reeds, and are elevated alongside the remains of the smoke stack.The bell of the engine, it was said, was carried as far as Queen street by the force of ihe explosion, while the dome which stood vpon the top of Ihe boiler was found imbedded in the earth in the centre of the Asylum grounds, Large pieces ot metai belonging to the locomotive and tender were strewn all over the track, while the pipes and rods were twisted into every imaginable shape.Many of the fences naar the scene of the accident bare the toarke of the explosion, large pieces of metal apparently having deen hurled against them.But the most strange thing of all is that the engine was Lot thrown of the rails notwithstanding tbe immense force of the explosion.The engine was manvfactured at Manchester, New Hampshire, and has been in use since the road was opeued for traffic.There are several theories as to the cause of the explosion.The prevailing one appears to be that the engineer had allowed the water to get low in the boiler and then

consequently about thirty-eight years of age.Early in life he shipped as a cabin boy, and, haviug a natural luve for the adventurous life of a sailor, soon rose in position until he became master of a ship.Then his prolonged voyages and the unsatisfactory accounts which he gave of them excited suspicion.It is believed that he made four voyages to the coast of Africa, the two first being very successful, as he landed the negroes at Cuba.The third voyage was less jortunaie for him, and he was obliged to put into a Brazilian port, His last voyage was made in the ship Erie, in which he sailed from Havana in the spring of 1860, and reached the mouth of the Congo river in August.He immediately bought up a cargo vf 897 slaves, for which Le gave whiskey.On the seventh day of August he set sail for Cuba, and on the eighth was discovered and chased by the U.S.s'eamer Monican.The Erie was finally captured, The negroes had been ao closely crowded in the ship\u2019s hold, that thirty-seven of them had died, and the remainder were put ashore at Monrovia.Captain Gordon and his mates, Hall and Warren, were brought to this port and lodged in the Eidiidge street jail, in charge of the then marshal, Ryuders.The conviction of Captain Gordon is an aflair of too recent occurrence 10 need repetition.The that they would jot him die, that he might wee resorted lo, and for à wi to recover, during which period hes begged avid the shame of hanging, He was soon taken with vomiting, and it was plain that he had swallowed strychnine.Ii now also became evident that he could live but a few hours, and the physicians gave lum brandy and stimulamas to preserve his life forihe exe- oution of the sentence.He became unable lo speak, and appeared to suffer greatly, as much at his failure lo destroy lus life as by physical pain.; About 11 o'clock he wrote on a piece of rer, \u201c1 wish to die, so that | may be re- ieved of my sulerings.\u201d It 18 not known how the poison was procured.Gordon refused to tel! who brought it to him, but said that he hud concealed it for sume ume in a little hole whieh he had cot in his bench.His clothes had been changed, and he had been put in another cell the night previous, but he said he succeeded in taking a portion of the poison with him.This story has as much probability as any, although some think he oblained the strychnine in a cigar.A little after 11 o'- clock he sent for Marshal Murray and gave him a gold ring fiom his finger, and asked him to send it and a lock of hair to his wile.The marshal promised and left the cell.\u2014 About 12 o'clock Rev.Mr.Camp visited him again, aud ihe puisoner listened attentively to the last prayer in his behalf.Mr.Simeon Draper, of the Board of Commissiuners of Charities and Correction, then informed Gor- dou that his last bour had come.The prisoner expressed surprise, saying he thought he Was lo Wait till 2 o\u2019clock, but Mr.Draper toid him it was because of his condition, and he must prepare to die.Gordon\u2019s arms were then bound by two officers, who entered the cell, and the black cap was placed upon his head.Being asked if Le wished to speak, he said : \u201cYas, I have a word to say: I die with the clear conscience of a man who has done intentionally no wrong.When a man gets up in court and says to the jury that if they will only eanvict a man for

own ends.He 18 a mean fellow.\u201d SCENE IN THE YARD.The scene in the yard was blank and oppressive.The high, bare walls of the prison rose on every side, hardly varied by the grated and narrow apertures for ventilation.Three pigeons, shivering in the cold, sat on the stone couping.Overhead, the winter sun was obzcured by fogey clouds, and occasionally a htile whiri of wind swept down and rusiled among the few shrubs that had been planted at the foot ol the walls, and a few rosebushes that clung to the siones.Just over the entrance lo this part of the yard is the wooden bridge that connects the upper stories of two paris of tha prison, and which bears on one side the inscription * The bridge of sighs,\u201d and on the other * The way ot the Transgressor is bard.\u201d Near the back wall stood 1he gibbet, the same upon which Hicks and others exmated their crimes, and just in front of it was a large ailanthus tree with rough, leuf- less limbs, At the right were ten marines, with loaded guns, and thirty others stood at a little distance in front.About fifiy or sixty people, officers of police, of the city government, and others, were in the background, all neariy silent, and apparently mueh impressed by the scena.Before tha door of the male prison two marines kept guard.The executioner was thoughifully leaning against a post near the gallows.Twelve o\u2019clock passed.Fifteen minutes more and the prison door opened, and M ar- shal Murray, in his official uniform, accompanied by his first deputy, emeiged.A hait dnzen officers followed, the prisoner walking between two, partially sustziped by them.His face was of a purplish hue.perhaps as much Irom the eflect of the strychnine as from fear, and his haggard features\u201d and wild eyes misery and terror.He was immediately conducted to the rope aad the noose fixed.Bein asked if he had anything to say, he half whispered and half articulated that he only wished lo be remembered to his wife and\u2019 friends.The cap was then drawn over his face, the signal given, and Gordon was jerked into the air by the fall of a 256-pound weight.He bung for half an hour, with hardly a move- men! of the muscles.At the end of that time the body was taken down, and after a coroner\u2019s jury hud pronounced an inquest, was remover lo the dead: house to await dispositions by bis friends, A high degree

persons on suspicion and it had been frequently done without their haying been brought to trial.The Government had complained of the arbitrary manner in which these arresis had been made by the sole authority of the President without legislative sauction, and he was not disposed to defehd the acts of the American Government, but Congress had decided that ihe prerogative belonged to the President and if he believed that the parties were engaged in a treasonable conspiracy as was alleged he did not see how her Majesiy\u2019s Government could interfere with a practice which was absolutely necessary these persons in conspiracies and her Majesty\u2019s (Government was not in a position tocontradict, but they had entered strong remonstrazces against the manner in which the arrests were made and the prisoners trested, and the case of the persons woald be earnestly watched by them.Earl Derby was ready 10 make every allowance for .he difficulties of the Government of the Federal States, but these caves naturally excited indignation afies the arbitrary manner in which British subjects have been invariably treated, and the very uncourteous replies of tho Federal Government to the remonstrances of Earl Russell, who had quietly accepted the views of Mr.Sewatd in ihis case which he was not disposed to do.He would therefore, ask the noble Earl, if in any English precedents of this kind, it was made a condition of their being brought to trial for party ta forswear allegiance to his own country.1f the right of arrest on suspicion was admitted, the subsequent ireatment was precedent.Eari Russell had no knowledge of the details of these cases, having had no notice of the question.He was not aware that the now and by us in the same and only manner that they were ever won by any people, or in most zealous efforts of his counsel! failed to procure either a pardon or a commutation of sentence from the President, and Marsha) Murray, in the performance of his official duties, made the necessary préparations for the execution.Captain Gordon\u2019s last interview with his wife and child occurred on Thursday af-er- noon.All hope had then been abandoned, and he appeared to be auflering the depths of misery.His couneel, Judge Beeba, had gone to Albany to endeavoor io obisin Governor Morgan\u2019s aid in postponing or preventing the execution, and it is stated that the Governor was prevailed upon 10 request from the Piesi- deal, by telegraph, a further respite.During the evening, Marshal Murray called upon the prisoner, and conversed with him a short time, Gordon seemed 10 speak with unwonted cheerfuin es, und, thanking the marshal for his attentions, assured him that he understuod tum to be performing his official duty, and cherished no ill-feelings towards him.At night four keepers were detailed to his cell, two of whom were constantly with him ; and a guard of United States Marines were just outside the door, Gordon employed himself in smoking and writing his farewell letiers, penning thirleen, and giving directions for their delivery.One of these was for his child, « boy yet in infancy.He direeted that it shoujd be read alter a certain time had elapsed.About 3} o'clock in the morning Gordon suddenly threw himself on the bed, writhing any age, since the days of Joshua, by boldly pursuing and sinking the foe.What, under the blessing of Piuvidence, I conceive to be the true organization of viotory and military combination to end 1his war, was declared in a few words by General Graut\u2019s message to General Buckner\u2014« | ropnse lo move ime mediately on your works \u201d Yours, troly, Epwix M, StanTon.The American Civil War.ST.Lovrs, Feby.26.\u2014A Fort Donelson despatch 10 the Democrat of yesterday, says 8 boat just frum Clarksvilie reports the evacuation of Nashville.The Union citizens of that place sent n boat to Clarksville which towed ons of our gun-boats up for their rolection.The Confederates with Governor orris retreated to Marfreesboro\u2019.Harris burnt all the State documents before leaving.General Grant had decisred martial law over Western Tennessee, with the understandin that when à sufficient number of the citizens of the State telurn to their allegiance, and show a desire for law and order over the ier.ritory, all military restriction shall be withdrawn, Cuicago, Feb, 20th.~-A despatch to the 2vibune says the mortar fleet is finished.Nothing has tranapired in reference to Columbus.Reports from Confederate sources re- Oath of Allegiance 10 the Federf!

hence, a child fed ou pap for a time grows fut, but tbe boues are soft : frequently it sickens, and severe symptoms supervene, Amongst the vegetable substances, tuut which comes closest to milk in its composition, besides being more casily asaim- ilated and strengthening, is, without doubt, Du Barry\u2019sRevalenta Arabica Food, containing both phosphoric acid in abundance, and cbloride of potassium ; it also includes casein, the same prio- ciple which is found in milk in its constituent parts.No wonder.therefore, that under its in- fuence many childreu nffected with atrophy (wasting away of the budy), and marked debility.have completely recovered.I have given it with the greatest advantage in such cases;
