      I Another Fibe in Livekpool . —On Friday night ! the town had another narrow escape from a serious ! coi ) fljgraiion . About seven o ' clock smoke was seen ¦ to issue , by the policeman on duty , from the windows ! of the cellar of one of the new warehouses , coin rnonly I known as " Gibson's , " extending from the Piazzas ; at the Salthouse Dock up Salthouso-lahe . The alarm j was instantly conveyed to Mr . Whitty , who was speedily on the spot with an engine , and , incut h the flames burst from the windows of the building with apparently irresistible fury , the devouring element was conquered without having effected any material damage . The rooms in tho upper part of these warehouses were filled with cotton , the basement | contained shumao and and other merchandise , and at the end of the warehouse nearest the dock was a large quantity of sulphur . The warehouses being free , the cellars were not vaulted , and the windows | were on a level'with the footpath . It is supposed ! that some persons , while passing , either carelessly or 1 wilfully threw a lighted substance into the cellar , which communicated with the sulphur , and but for ; the promptitude and efficiency of tho police , and a i plentiful supply ' of water being at hand , tho whole j premises might have been destroyed , and all the valuable property which was coutained therein . As it ' was , the eulphdr only was consumed . The wind blew i high from the north-west ; and , had the fire broken out in the night , tho mos * disastrous consequences might have onsuodi—Liverpool Albion . The late Military Riot at Perth . —In closing our account last week of the recent formidable riot and assault by the portion of the 68 ch dcpSi , now removed to Stirling Castle , we expressed a persuasion that the military authorities would see it to be their duty to institute an inquiry into that unfortunate and serious disturbance ; and the Duke of Wellington , Commahder-in-Chief , has , with characteristic promptitude and regard for the discipline and efficiency of the army , already ordered such invests ' gation to be made . On Saturday morning the Lord Provost received a communication from the Com * mander of the forces in Scotland ( Si » N . Douglas ) , announcing that having transmitted the Provost ' s representation and relative documents in reference to the riot , and also a statement by . Major Huey . commanding the 68 ' -h dep 6 " ., to the Duke , his Grace had been pleased to command a Board of Officers , consisting of Colonel Cockraue , the Assistant-Adjutant-General of the Forces and Colonel Jackson , of the Guards ( 6 th Carbineers , who attended Her Majesty on her visit to the city iast year ) , to proceed immediately to Forth in order to institute " a most minute and strict investigation" into the origin and circumstances of the riot , and , further , that hi 3 Grace with a view to mark the especial respect for the authorities of Perth ( the Qieen's visit makes Perth thenceforth a favoured city ) , had directed one of his aides-de-camp , Lkutenant-Colonel the Earl of March ( son of , the Duke-pf Richmond ) , to attend and assist at the inquiry , the Board arrived here accordingly on Monday morning ( Colonel Goldie , of the 66 th Regiment , com ; ug in place of Colonel Jackson , who is at present ia Ireland ) , and entered upon their ! duties the same forenoon at the barracks . The inquiry , which is still going on , and will probably occupy the remainder of the week , is private , like all military investigations , and is confined to the day of the riot , and tne day precading and following . Among the witnesses who have already been examined are , the Lord Provost , the City Clerks , Mr . M'Lean , the Procurator-Fiscal , Mr . Boyle , Superin- 1 teadent of Police , &c . Major Huey , and several of the officers and non-commissioned officers of the 68 < h depot , are in Perth . Major Huey is permitted to be present at the iuquiry , and to put questions in writing , through the ; Board , to the witnesses examined . The evidence is taken down in writing , and will bo reported to the Horse Guardg for the decision ; of the Commander-in-Chief . —Perthshire Advertizcr . Atmosphehic Railway from Ki . ngstow . v ( Dub- i lin ) to Dalkev . >—Tnis great work progresses rapidly . Tiie workmen are busily engaged in laying the permanent rails ; and some hundred yards of iron tube or pipe , in which the vacuum is to be ; created for the purposes cf locomotion , are laid dow u , I and the valve or top fitted . The engine-house and chimney stalk are built at the terminus , near Dalkey , aud the engines and boilers in the course of being fitted in iheir respective situations . The reservoir of water for the use of the steam-engine is nearly complete , and will be filled in a short time , when the mountain stream to supply it is turned on . Ia the course of the excavation there was met with a laTge bed of unbaked or imperfect granite , the veins j of quarz running ; through it , which presents a ' veryi interesting teauire to tho mineralogist . The means I adopted to carry off the surface water , as well as-j that of the land springs , have greatly enhanced the value of tho land . through which the railway passes . > Sewurs of immense magnitude run from the railway |* to the sea . In some places , where mountain streams have to be conveyed across , the siphon is most effectively applied , and any iuconveni . nee that would be likely to arisetfrom warer is completely obviated , j The rate of speed , it is calculated , -willj . be from fortyfive to sixty miles an hour up the inclined plane , which is as much a s one toot in fifty in some parts , in all quite enough to bring the carriage down as rapidly as will be required . In order to obviate the effects of the centrifugal force , which would be very considerable when travelling at the rate of fifty or sixty miles an hour , one rail is slightly elevated in the curves ; this ( will be scarcely perceptible to the traveller . The apprehension of danger m any case is folly , for the train is firmly attached to the tube , and cannot stir from it by any possibility . So soon as the road is complete to Bullock , the working of the railway will begin at least so far as the necessary experiments prior to its being opened for the public . The carriages ate nearly ready ; they are not so high as those of the ordinary railway , part of the wheels being up in the body ; they are mach more elegant in structure and appearance , and fitted with great comfort . Altogether , the works give fair promise of being complete early in July . A neat pathway will be formed alongside the protecting wall , which extends the entire way to Dalkey ; and a more agreeable promenade than this will form , combining puro air and a magnificent ! view of Kingstown Harbour , Howth , &c . cannot well be imagined . No pubJic workj excites eo much general attention Lin every part ofithe world aa the Atmospheric Rail * I way from Kingstowu to Dajkey . —Saunders ' s Nexvs i Letter .

      mndiram dnring the last ftrea < uys , ana I tob sorpriBsd to see the d ; fra * as « in tbe river * ^!« especially in . ths principal Fill ( there ire four Falls wiibin about 200 yards above where the railway from Albany to Boston crosses on a strong wooden bridge which supports the rails . ) Here the sur ^ e rolled with great velocity , ana was intermixed J « ta a vast number of trees which had been wasKed irom tbe conntry above . These were dashed over the precipice in immense bodies . The breadth into which the river is confined may be from 250 to 300 yards ; ins height of the Ball is 05 feet . This was Niagara in no small minature ; snd the spray iiom it was propsrtiojtal to ths greater FalL

      Above the Falls a very large watercourse is cut , fcy which a number of fionr mills are woried , also a machine manufajtory , a sash manufactory , a cotton Eiill . a few turning Isithes , a plaining machine , whtre Scoring boards are pnt through and " come oui planed , groovfcd , and feathered , qaite ready to be laid down and joined together ; with otner machinery . To give an idea of the magnitude of tbe water-power at this place , it is only necessary to state that , of wheaten fionr alone from 450 , 000 to 5 D 0 . 000 barrels are annually pound . Each mill "has its share of the supply ; and there is a stream Tolling down , neaily c-qui-distant upon tfaB steep . bank , between the street of manufactories andths river , producing a novel and interesting effect , in one er two instances the water ia thrown from the course , and falls at a considerable distance upon the bank , and , like the others , rails on until it joins ihe parent river . ;

      I was engaged during the day with some private arrangements , and in visiting a few of my kins Mends . ; Fhidat , 16 : h—Ths morning very wet . I was again eiigagsd for tome ti ; ae with business- In the afternoon I visited the M * ssrs . Loagnmli ; and Mr . Gabriel LoBgmuir was kind enough to drive Mr . John Tayloi and myself to Irondigioit , lie residence of ray old friend . Dr . Srayles The doctor was from home , tut very soon returned with Mr . Brown , a bnilder , ana a native of Northamptonshire . The latter bad with him a boy , whom , afttr having witnessed some experiments made by a lecturer on tbe new scienoa of mesmerism , Mr . B . bad succeeded in throwing into the mesmeric sleep , and living as he ( Mr . B . i did in tie same house

      with fiie lad , be had the bat opportunity of experi menting upon him , and be had improved his time during the two intervening days . Af itx tea , the doctor and his friend proposed to treat us to a feast on the new science ; and Mr . Brown very soon had the youth asleep , and succsssfally proved to my mintl the truth of the science of phrenol gy linked to mesmerism . The Dz . directed Mr . Brown to the seveial organs , Mr . B . being a novice in phrenology . When he tonchtd the organ of music , thelboy sung faintly ; when the orgEn of atqoisitivsncss , be showed love of money , and that he dtsircd to be rich ; on touching the organ of stlf-sstaem , he stretched his body to the utmost altitude , and , in Teply to questions , be declared himself S 3 great a man as a king or the President

      either ! At the teach cf the organ of destmctivenesa , Ihe used his fins with great Telocity , and violence , striking about him in every direction . I was close to him and receivtd a few severe blows . The boy leld the names of a number of persons merely from the circumstance of Mi . Bivwn fixtag his thonjiht upon individuals absent and present . When Mr . Brewn tuok sc-we bitters into his mouth , which be did beyond the possibility of the boy knowing it , be instantly commencsd a keen sort ol spitting out ; Mr . B . then took a sweet substance into his mouth in the same position , and the boy as evidently felt tbe t&dte of it . Various other feats were performed , among which was telling what a number of ariiclts were which Mr . B . held in his hand ; and the name of persons who were placed in partiealar situations withont the boy's knowledge . A Mr . Johnson had been lecturing in tbe

      city upon tbe science of Mesmerism ; and he was not only looked npon but denounced as an impo 3 tor by ; all the literati . They were astounded , howevtr , that Mr . Brown should succeed so well with the boy . Dr . Smyles being convinced of the reality of the phenomena , iimied the leading men of thb city to his house , in order to prove the fact . The invitation brought many in carriag = » £ Ddox > hcr 3 eh : ick . AttbeappointetitimeMr . Brown waa in attendance , and speedily had his subject in the sleep . Th . 3 boy did not perform so well as be had previously done ; however , Mr . B . succeeded in mtsmexhang one of tbe gentlemen from the city . This c-rsumstascs , conpJed "with hJB other performances , converted every sceptic , save one . So each returned to his home marvelling , and Mr . Johnson was txoncrated from the charge of impesition . In the evenicg we returned to the

      city-Satckdat , 17 th—This morning I was introduced to a gentleman , of only middle age . who among many matters vf hittiesit , informed me that the hoise upon which he rt-de at the time , bad stumbled over tat stump of a tree , npon ths site of tbe city Bank—one o ! tbe - ldtit buildings . This circumstance I mention to shew how rapidly this place has sprang up from a forest to a city , with a populatio" of 20 , 009 . It was founded in 3812 , by Nathsnisl Rochester Fiizbogh and Charles CarroL A considerable portion of this day was occupied in arranging business of a private nature . In the evening I paid same viats .

      SCSDAV , ISth—This morning Dr . Smyles , with Mtssrs . Brown and Taylor , came for me with a carriage and pair . The Dr . brought an invitation for me to dinu with a pxrty of his friencs at five ; and to occupy tbe isterT&ning sps . ee they eff-red to show me all that time would tnable them to da 1 accompjnied them , making bsv = t £ 1 calls in the city ; after which we crossed tbe river and drove to tht Lower F _ lls , and from thence to Xske Ontario . Abont a siile below tbe dry tfc * se gentlenjtn pointed i-p to a nxlU site on the edge which had been sold for 3 , 000 dollars . The falf th « re is 20 fset .

      Ten thonsaEd dollars have been expended in cutting the watercourse , bet tbe puties being incompetent to carry oa tbe projected iniil the affair fell into Ihe hands ¦ of ths Bank , Which hvlds for about -1 . 000 dollars , this unused and remote spot of ground . Were capital ¦ jpiihjn tbe reach « f tbe numerous spectators which this place contains , the wwrk would merrily proceed . No necessity would exist to apply to them tbe very common remark here , viz ^ •* Go a-b-jad ! Their minds are like a bow at full bend , and only require the requisite meats to let fly .

      Tbe lower falls are very Btrikicg , and surpass in pistnreEqu 9 irregularity , and a peculiarity of cioss , detached , broken wattr , every waterfall 1 had ever seen . ' Thej are 195 feet in height , which with the adjoining banks and rocks , from a truly grand romantic sccae . Tte village of Brighton , with its clean white houses , is situated on the opposite bank , and is reflected through beautiful , but inclscribable thin spTay , "which , from tbe gushing , broken , dashing , and eternal strife : of waters , rises high in the air , presenting a picture more wonderful than that at the Coper Foils , or even those of Niagara . This splendid frolic of nature in grand and novel combination , produced a pleasurable sensation , which may be conceived , but which I dare not attam'Dt to describe .

      A few hundred yards below this is the Port of Rochester , to which vessels may be navigated direct from Ijvferpocl , or asy other European poit , by entering the great river St . Lawrence , sailing its whole length , and proceedJBg to the centre of Xske Ontario , and entering the month of the river Genessee , distant only' six miles . They arrive at this port , where steamers from Lewiston , Qaeenston , Toronto , Kingston , Montreal , and ths other ports of the great L-: ke Ontario , regularly arrive , and from which passengers and goods are conveyed , in a few minutes , from the port to the centre of ths city by tho connecliiig railway . . _

      From this eBckisUvg scene we proceeded tbxoneb a Sue country to the centre of the township of Ibo > 'DJ qiOlT , ( Dr . SjujI-js township ) , when , after a short stay , aad seme conversation with the landlord , who is aa old cosutrT-sjsn , about cur eoant / y , the D .-etor drove for ths lake , on which was a considerable surge , with every appearance cf the open sea ; but no fossils or shells ; nothing of the kind had been washed from the " vasty deep , " there being merely a sandy beach , -witbjtlie verce generally covered wilb -woort , and bo great pTOKinsnce ; tra the contrary , a flat shore . We retained , and reached tfce Doctor ' sabsut half-past four , where we found Miss "Wilson , the Doctor ' s aster-inlaw , also her brother , tsro Messrs . Bruce , of the city ( formerly of Edinburgh ) , and ethers . On our Totsud , we bid taken up tbe t > oy , which Mi . Bro"sra had mesmerised two «? ays before .

      Aft ? r dinner , and seme pleasant conversation , and a second treat of the mesmerism , wherein some additional traits were exhibited , the Doctor drove me anti friends b 3 ck to the city at a late tour . 2 £ oyi > AT , 19 rij . — This / 3 ay was principally occupied in arranging private business . * Tuesday , 20 th— T © day I intended to visit MOO'T Bo ? E , a new Cemetry of large extent , and described as being laid out with great taste in a delightful sHua-Jaon . An omnifcns runs to it five or six times a day , &t a cheap fare .

The first station was BRIGHTON , ( not the same as described on the banks of the Genessee river ) which is a small and clean village . We ntxt proceeded to Cahahdagtja ; which i » situated in a fine country , with beautiful ridges and much heavy timber . We next arrived at Waterloo , containina a population of 3 , 000 . Next Seneca Palis , with a popula-¦

      tion of about 1 , 500 . - At no great distance we passed Seneca Lake on our way to Auburn . From SESEca we soon reached Catcga Lake , the end of which we crossed by a bridge of wood , resting upon piles , about a mile Aad a quarter long . There v& another bridge ( of the same description and rathtr longer than that we crossed ) at a short distance , over which a common road is carried . When we arrived at the village called Catbga , which is close on tbe edge of the Lake , the Simeon de Witt Clinton steamer was just arriving from Ithaca , which is at the soulhrrn extremity of the Like , distant about forty miles . The Lake is a beautiful oblong sheet of water , with fine gently sloping banks , which rise to a great height without having the appearance of mountains- The day being clear , I had a delightfully picturesque view .

      Auburn , bordering on Owesgo Lake , was our next halting place . It is a very pleasuut and well-built town , containing a population of 5 400 . The lake is in form neatly the same as Cayega , only not bo lonj ?; but both iying nearly due north to south . At AUBCRS stands obo of the very large States * prisons . We next got to Sk asedeles Lake , similar in form to tbe two laBt-n 3 mtd , and also stretching from nortb to south , but inclining south-east Our next important station was Syracuse on the southern point of Oaondaga Lak 9 .

      Syracuse , one of the magnificient canal creations , is seated near the cuiitre of the county of Oaondaga of which it is the seat of Justice , at the point whero tbe peat Seneca turnpike crosses the Erie canal , and at tbe junction of that canal with the Oswcgo canal ; 278 miles from K « w York , 133 from Albany by road , and by tbe canal , 171 ; from Utica 61 , and from Rochester 99 miles . The junction of the canals and turnpike renders thus a great thoroughfare to Canada , nnd s place of much business . The village incorporated in 1825 , already assumes a city-like appearance , has four churches , a bank , spacious streets , and large blocks of four storied stores , about 700 dwellings , and one of the most splendid hotels in tbe state . Salina is a mile and a-half N . of Syracuse , and may be considered as part of it It has three churches , and a bank . Its property has been overshadowed by its more thriving neigbbonr .

      This is thB principal seat of the Onondaga salt works , though there are extensive works at Syracuse , Liverpool , and Gdddes . The great spring which supplies the three villages is here . Tbe brine is propelled by hydraulic engines to a reservoir , 85 ft . above the ground , at the rate of 300 gallons per minute , and is thence distributed by wooden pipes to the various works . The quantity of salt annnally manufactured ia about three millions of bushels . The following table shows the number of salt works at the several villages —

      The population employed in tbe several works in the city , and the villages adjacent , cannot be less than 20 , 000 . We passed on to Manluns , near to which is PtyMPEV , where sfme woollens are manufactured ; then to Fatettstille , which is a snnll place ; the : i Constantia , between which and Verona , we passed near to the South Point of the large Oneida Lake , in Oneitlu county . This ronta is through a solid mass of heavy timber . We halted at Rome , a small village ; next 0 RI 5 KANT ; ten miles further is Utjca , a fine city , the population of the township amounting to 10 , 000 , or 12 , 000 . I had' taken m ? fare to this place , expecting to meet a friend , who lives at Orjska > y ,

      to whom I had wrihsn , to meet me here . Not finding my friend present , I attributed the causa to tho irregniarity of the post , and proceeded forward to the beautiful valley of tbe Mohawk River , near Frankfort . We passed throufh many villages , Amsterdam and Rotterdam among tLe number being exceedingly pretty . Having arrived at SchenecTady , we proceeded onward to Alba > "x , where , after a very cold day , and a pleasant night , we arrived in time for tbe New York steamer . I speedily went on board , and there recognized Angus Campbell , whom 1 had known as an active and intelligent working man in Giaagow . We bad a fine morning , and passed it pleasantly , admiring tha ^ bants of the Hudson , with the villages , villas , cottages , " shipping , Ac .

      We stopped at many places , on both sides , to land and receive passengers . At Hyde Park Lansing , we took on board one of xay opposing candidates at the last election for tbe West Ridicg of Yorkshire , in the person of Lord Viscount Merpeth . Observing his Lordship as be stepped on board , and feeling a little surprised , I abruptly , but involuntarily , exclaimed there is Lord Morpeth . " This excited the curiosity of some o ! the passengers who stood by me on the upper deck ; and who , consequently , went below to ascertain if any difference existed between the only lord they bad ever had an opportunity of Beeing in this democratic country , and the generality of human beings . Some of tbe gentlemen soon returned , and asked me to " guess" wiat the Lord had been taken for .

      This task was teo great for me to attempt ; tbey therefore told me he bad been set down for a Methodise Parson . At this there was a right hearty laugh . One gentlemen observed that he ( Lord Morpeth ) , ought to know this . I leplied that he very probably wonld do so , as I had arranged to land at Pokepsie , the next landing place . I left hia Lordship in perfect ignoranes that two defeated candidates , at the last West-Riding election , bad been treading file deck of a steamer on the Hndson river at the same time : both of whom , twrithing under disappointed ambition , and unable to bear up under toe infliction at home , ) had sought solace in this " land of freedom ' . from titles and "accidental " distinctions . His lordship and myself may , I feel

      confident , safely challenge "the world to produce another instance where two defeated candidates for the representation of a great EpjUsh county , seeking " ministration to a heart diseased , " met together in a , small wsstl so far from the scans of their defeat . There , however , we were 1 but upon precisely the same terms of tquality as we stood upon the hustings at Wahefleld ! At the moment I landed tbe noble ex-Secretary of Ireland was seated by tbo side of a Republican Yankee , on a coil of ropes on the upper deck , taking a lesson of " equality '' that put the accident" of birth to the blush . ' Aa 1 left him , in " sorrow all forlorn , " I could not but ask myself what iis late master , Dan , would have thonsht , had be seen bim as 1 then did !

      I had just stepped upon tbe pier when a Yorkshireman accosted me by name , and directed me to Mr . Thoa . Brooks , an old friend from Mold Gre&n , Huddersfleld , who had been out some fifteen or sixteen years . I found him well , and living in a geod bouse of his own , and having a well-stocked store . I also called npon bis son-in-law , who resides on the opporte side of the Etrjet , who also owned tbe house in which he dwelt He ( the son-in-law ) is in the wood trade , which is in general use for fueL Sir . Shaw was from home ; I , however , saw his wife , a very pleasant woman . Mr . Brook introduced me to several other personF ,

      foraerly of BuuderBfield . ; I Sined witb him , and , after dinner , hired a bucgy . Thomas Crcssley , late of Huddersfield , drove me to Wappincc-r ' s Creek . Here I met James Walker , late of GRasgow , and brotherin-law to Angus Campbell , who had accompanied me from Albaky to Porepsie . I had some business with Walker , but found him destitute of means and without employment . Kq tavern or temperance house is kept in this place , ( Wappinger ' s Creek . j 1 bad , therefore , to return & mile npen the line of road by whieh . 1 had travelled from Pokepsie to a tavern to Bleep at a village whkh is named . Chakningyille , after tbe great Dr . Charming , of Boston .

      Saturday , 24 th . —I rose as soon us ther 9 was sufficient light to allow me to see to dress my If , g . I turned out , andjclimbed the mostlofty elevation v ear tbe place , and bad a contracted but beautiful view 'of a fine , bold , undulating neighbourhood . I could discern the creek , with the Tails above the mill , and a sort of bason , formed by nature , near the works j a " wooden conductor carried the water round a chain of r jcks to supply the print works and to propel the wTjeel . I bad also a view of tbe two valleys in which the masters and proprietor reside , likewise of tha "river Hudson and the splendid bay , which lay below ' the works , as also of the print-works , the drying-bboBer the comb manufactory and , in tide distance , the Cats '^ m moun tains : altogether forming a novel and rich scr *«

      I breakfasted with Johj , , ^ 3 George Rogers , Angus Campbell , James Walke'i , his and George Roger ' s wife and sisters . After bre jtfaat I visited the print-works of Messrs . Ingham ani » . Lister , where they were " going a-heau" engraving ro ' jejg ^ BBd proceeding regularly in all the other deparf metts . It is stated that the firm ate in the habit ^ receiving the newest patternB If om Franc * and ^ D ^ ' . and , copying them , and having goods of the same sr pearance in the market a fortnight after

Sweet ; Nichols , and Shields have here a comb manufactory , end make a large quantity of that article . Having jnever seen a comb manufactory npon the principle on which this is conducted , I was much surprised to witness the ingenuity and economy [ of the process . The major part of the combs were made from hoofs ; , and by ns ^ ng a certai n kind of liquor and polish , they were , made to appear very beautiful '; they , however , were more for show than use .

      After viewing the works , jamea Walker , John Rogers , and Angus Campbell , accompanied me down the bay in a boat to Hamburgh PoisT , wbere we crossed the Hndaon to Hampdejj Landing , a place containing about a d < Zin bouses , in a sort of bay . The honees are situate upon a steep bank , above a high rocky shore . New Hamburgh standa at the bottom of the bay leading to Wappinger ' s Creek , on tho east bank of the river . It is a pretty village , and well situated , having in it a handsome new chtticb . A small island is situated'off this place , which contains some Indian houses . I remained at Hampden a considerable time for the steamer ; and then proceeded for New York .

      The first place pi importance we reached was Newburgh , a splendid town , built as a sort of amphitheatre from the edge of the river . The buildings , both public and private , and particularly the churches , bafe a most pleasing Jappearaace , rising above each other like steps . A portion of the town is over the summit of the bank and bayond the view from tbe river . At this place stands the house in which Washington and Lufayette first met The house seems an old one ; and adjoining it is a ftne plain , which , from the circumstance of the twojheroes having first , joined hands here , is made a general ) encampment for volunteer corps from the various States of the Union , who resort thither for tb *> purpose of drilling .

      Fishskill Landing is directly opposite the Fisbskill Mountains , when crossing the river , nearly due east and west , and the river Beeras as if its force had , cut them in two . These Mountains are lofty , and nearly covered with small timber and brushwood . They are the only mountains similar to ours in Great Biitain which J 1 have seen in this country .: St . Anthony's Nose , and tbe part fallen off between the ridges , is a bold rock on the lfcft ; tm the right tha rocks and trees overhang the river . Passing those bold scenes , we arrive at COLD Springs , a government establishment , principally for casting cannon shot and implements of war . As We proceeded the scene increased in beauty ; an 3 as we approached West Point , I observed a military school , of great extent , situated on a fine irregular rising ground , beautifully wooded . The establishment

      seemed to be in ; the beBt order ; the appearance very imposing . On the summit of tbe hill stands an old fortress , in ruins , which is said to be almost impregnable , if put in a poper state of defence . This w % . i one of Washington ' s jstrong holds during the War of Independence . Adjoining the school is a large and commodious hotel and barracks . We landed at this place , and received several passengers , among whom was my Lord Morpetb , who had staid here overnight , ( aa I had done near Pokepsio ) . , We saw many French gtey uniforms ( the colour of the States army clothing ) in motion . This smelled strong of aristocracy ; au 4 hud it not been for the colour of Ithe cloth , would have made us believe we were in the St . Lawrence , or in the Thames , near Woolwich . The govemmeut have a large extent of property here . ( To be continued . )

      Important Change in tee Law—Mr . CoifcTn ? - ham , the Union-hall magistrate , has declared that he never wijl punish any man who was present at the battle of Waterloo for any cfp-nce short of felony . An immense number of acts of Parliament are annulled by this important resolution . People talk of the omnipottincy of Parliament ; , but mark the omnipotency of a magistrate , who , with a sic voio sic jubco , sets aside the lawa of the Legislature and of the land in favour of a particular class of persona . It is pos .-ib ' . e that Sir James Graham may inquire by what right or authority Mr . jCettingham promises impunity to Waterloo men for all misdemeanours , breache 3 of the peace , assaults , &c .

      The Hohbors of War . —Dr | . Dick calculates that ' since the creation of the world J 4 , 000 , 000 , 000 of 'beings have fallen in tho wars which mm has waged against his fe ] rofv-c » vature—man . If this amazing number of men were [ to hold each other by the hand , alarms length , they would extend over 16 , 583 . 330 miles of ground , anjd would encircle the globe upon which we dwell 6 C 8 times ! If we allow the weight of a man to be on } an avefage one cwt . ( and that is , if anything , below the mark ) , we shall come to tho conclusion that 69250 , 000 tons of human

      nosh have been mangled , disfigured , gashed , and trampled under foot . The calculation will appear more striking when I state tnat if the fore-fingers only of every one of those 114 , 000 , 000 , 000 human beings were to be laid out in a straight line , they would reach more than 600 , 000 miles beyond the moon ; and that if a person were to undertake to count the number , allowing IS hours to the day and seven days to the week , and to number at the rate of 6 , 000 per hour , it would employ that person 33 o ' years ; and awful is the consideration , that 3 . , 000 pipes of human blood have been spilt in battles , "

      French Sympathy fob Ireland . —Paris , Jcne 5 . 1843 . —One of tho cleverest tilings lately done by the French for keeping up the population of Algeria , and which is nothing more nor less than " Burking" on a grand scale , has just been perpetrated . Perhaps the publication of this letter tnay save the lives of other hundreds or thousands of our poor countrymen , whose poverty and whose industry lead them to accept of employment , no matter how laborious or how dangerous . You may remember that towards the finish of the works on the Rouen Railroad considerable numbers of Irish labourers were imported by the contractors from . England to enable them to complete the undertaking vyithin tho prescribed period . The job over , tho poor fellows were , of

      course , left to shift for themselves , which ( voluntary immigration from France being at an end ) presented to this wide-awake Government a capital opportunity for supplying the vacuum hourly occasioned by fell disease in the European popu l ation of Algeria . Crimps were employed , and with so ranch success , that already 220 of those poor | men—all Irish , let me observe—have been carried off for the last time , in a few weeks , by another procesi This experiment is about to be repeated on anjimmense scale . Will your Government sanction it !| Or is there any law or any reason to opposo to it !

      Pat s Potatoes . —Dr . Mackenzie tells with great good humour an anecdote in tlio Now York Union , which we before heard verbally related . It is all about a certain Lady Middieton , who , contrary tg her most anxious wish , was unblessed with any children . After an absence of several years with her liege lord in England , she returned with him to reside for a time on one of their Irish estates . As the carriage drove up to the mansion , she noticed several fine looking children ] about tho gate , and having learned that their mother was the wife of the gate porter , she determined to jinterrogate her , relative to the caose of her fecundity ; she therefore , next day , made her way dowii to the porter ' s lodge , and commenced her enquiries : — Whose children

      are these , ray good woman If " All my own , my lady . " " What ! three infants of the same age I " " Yes , my lady , I bad three tljie last time . " " How long are you married V- " Three years , your ladyship . " " And how many children have you ?" " Seven , my lady . " At last jcame the question of questions—how she came to have children ? The poor woman not well knowing what the Catechising meant , and not knowing how to wrap up in delicate words her idea of cause and ( filet , blushod and grew confused , and at last for want of s&Hiething better to say , replied— " I think it must ] be the potatot s , my lady ! " This unfolded a theory of i * opulation quite new toLady Middieton , who eagerly demanded :. — " The potatoes ! Do you eat niuch of them ? " " Ob ,

      yns , my lady ; very seldom we have bread , and so take the potatoefi all the year rpund ? " Greatly agitated with her new information , the lady further asked— " And where do you . } get the potatoes \" " We grows them in our little garden , my lady ; sure Pat tills it . " " Well , " said L ^ d y Middieton , " send me up a cartload of these potatoes , aud the steward shall pay you well for themi" Shortly after her ladyship rose to leave the house , and indeed had left it , when the matron ran after her , and , blushing , as she put the question , asked— "Ah , then , my lady , is it to have children that you want the load of potatoes ! '' It yva 3 the lady ' s turn | to blush , as she confessed that it was . " Because I ' m thinkin ' , my lady , in that case , that Pat had better take the potatoes to you himself V—Buenos Ayres iPeper .

      Puseyism gone Mad . —> A ludicrous scene occurred last week at a viHa « e on the confines of Hiraethog Mountain , Denbighshire . It was a quarrel between ihe parson , who is a rabid Puseyite , and an old testy farmer . The latter had presented to him by hia landlord , a Cheviot ram , with an extraordinary fine pair of horns . When the ram had been sheared , previous to bpiag turned to his walk , the farmer fastened a bell to his neck , and , as the usual body mark of his sheep , put two crosses with red Raddle ( Mwn Coch ) on his rump . The sight of the two crosses , and the sound of the pell , excited the holy

      ire of the parson , and induced ! him to make use of several harsh expressions , and to charge the farmer with impiety , and witb an indention to bring tbe church into disgrace . The Welsh mountaineer's choler was instantly roused , and but for the intervention of the lookers-on , his reverence would have been very irreverently dealt with . It seems that the clergyman had previously denounced the marking of sheep with a cross , a 3 a piece of impiety , aud the appearance of two crosses at o | ie end of the finely horned ram , and the bell at the other , was considered as a burlesqno upon the Llanrwst new church . — Carnarvon Herald .

      Murder , and Death of the Murderer . —An atrocious murder was committed on Tueeday morning , at Willow-hill , about three * miles beyond Carrigaline . The victim was a woman nanicd Buckley , between thirty and forty years of age , the mother ol two children , and within a couple of months of being again confined—the murderer ( was her broiher-inlaw , Thomas Buckley . He lived in the same house , and going out about , nine o ' clock on the morning mentioned , and finding a cock belonging to Mrs . Buckley fighting with one which had belonged to his mother , who is dead , he struck the former , which a son of Mrs . Buckley ( a boy { about twelve years old ) observing the little fellow called out , " Oh , mother , he'll bill the cock . " " Come in , " exclaimed

      the mother , " or he'll serve you the same way . " Buckley , hearing this , made a i-ush at the boy , who however , escaped into the house ; Buckley followed ,, and proceeding to the room in which he was in the habit of sleeping , he returned to tho kitchin with a " giffaun . " Seating himself onlthe table , he watched until hie sister-in-law stooped down to do something to the fire , on which potatoes were boiling for breakfast , and then struck her on the side of the head with the *' griffaun . '' The child , we understand , says that he gave her six blows . The skull was fractured behind the ear , the face greatly lacerated under one of the eyes , and the check laid ope | n . Buckley immediately made off , but information having been conveyed to the Ballyfeard station , Suo-eonstable Moloney ,

      with two other active policemen CCogblan and Pigott ) , went in pursuit , and , after seavching the plantations at Hodderfield , fel ! in with his coat and shoes on Mr . O'Grady ' s quay , on the Carrigaline river . From this they concluded that pe had swam acsoss , but soon after they met some fishermen who had found a body floating near the little cottage so well known to " pick-nickers , " and { not far from the spot where he had left the shoes and coat . When the policemen saw it , life was altogether extinct . Dr . M'Dermott , of Ballyfeard Dispensary , was in attendance on the woman , bat [ the injuries were too serious to admit of recovery , and she died yesterday morning . We have heard that she was cousin to Buckley as well as sister-in-law . For some time hia

      brothers ( they were either three or- four in number ) had not lived very cordially . They were partners in a boat , and the deceased manjaccused the others of having kept back his portion { of the price of some sand which they had sold . He swore lately that he would have the life of the husband of the woman , and , that there might be less likelihood of not executing the threat , he swore again that the oath which he had taken he would not break . Since then he has been as many as four or five nights together without entering the house , sleeping on some hay outside . It was stated , too . that he cut the tail off a pig belonging to . the brother , and vented his displeasure in other spiteful ways . —Cork Cotistitutiont
