Mr. Welsh states in the letter referred to that the character of the young gentleman (Mr. Frederick MeMahon) occupies no enviable position in the records of the Police Court.” This, Sir, is a base, malicious, and wicked falsehood. Mr. Frederick MeMahon was never brought before the Police Court or any other court in this Island upon any charge whatever, and 1 defy Mr, Welsh to prove it. In all probability, Mr. Welsh was thinking of himacl/, when ho was brought up before the Police Court and fined for striking a man, and he has merely substituted Mr. Frederck McMahon's name for his own. ‘Mr. Welsh muet, indeed, have been hard pressed, and on the ‘horas of a dilemma,” when he had recourse to the-very questionable proceeding of prying into holes and corners in search of information which he thonght might {prejudice the character of young Mr. MeMahen. in the eyes of the public; and it incontestadly proves the weakness of his cause and the unsoundness of his judgment when he works so silently, secretly, and per- sistently to discover some flaw, however trifling, in a schoolboy’s reputation for the purpose, as he imagines, of softening down the very serious charges brought againsthis ship. As for bis statements with reference to the captain and crew, coupled with his own opinion and belief, that the charges of assaults and brutal ill- usage on board the ship were ‘‘ all bosh,” they are not worth the value of the drop of ink which he bas expend ed.in writing them. He was notin the ship on the bigh seas, to witness them, nor has he any right to receive for gospel the garbled and false statements of implicat- ed.parties., Of course the captain of the “L. C. Owen,” who is responsible for the brutal outrages committed on board the ship, will Paing Mr. Frederick McMahon's churacier in the davkout ible aalore, ae a cort of set- off against them; but we will assume for a moment that the young lad was, like Mr, Welsh himself, brought be- fore the Police Court for fighting,—what, in the name of common sense, has that to do with the very serious charges brought agaiust the ‘L.C., Owen.” Instead of endeavoring to throw dirt at the young accuser, Mr. Welsh migit bave materially improved his coniition if, when he was inlormed of the conviction of the second mate before the Mayor's Court, he had at once dismiss- ed,him from his service, demanded from the captain his reasons for allowing such savagery to be constantly per- trated on board his ship, and expressed his regret to the young. gentleman's father that his son—who was po a supernumeraty,. without pe: and without being articled,—should have received such constant ill- usage to the imminent danger of his life, Lad he wisely done this, Sir, he might have been spared. all further anxiety in the matter ; there might have been no corres- pondence if the ‘busy tongue of scandal” had not been set wag pow Mr. MeMahon in the a i ing to disparage poste ay 04 ablie, an induce the belief that the statement of Ris wrongs and bitter sufferings was ‘all * and without foundation. Mr. Welsh having thonght proper at the ‘‘ eleventh hour” to dip his hands in the troubled waters. must not feel surprised if some f the muddy spray should fall upon his person. From ® fapling of deli elicacy towards his having remained so Jong quiet and silent (for it was presumed that he felt rieyed and ashamed that such infamous conduct should a, been brought to light), his name was never once ntioned or called in evidence; but now that he has thought proper to indulge in gratuitously insulting ta ts ig and to’ buty himeelf in endeavoring to ferret out from, tuscruputous sources, any boyish folly which he codld magnify ito a crime, he ust be told—if he knows it not already—that the ‘‘gentleman‘s son” is not the only 6n6 who is entitled to protection on board a mer- chant ship. The person and feelings of the poorest béggar boy in the land should be held as free from in- ury arid ffl-usage as those of the son of the, proudest { rin En Jand. With his conduct on shore, a captain of ship or Ifis crew have nothing whatever to do; and if th ick, aud strike, and tamble him overboard, ney will hd to thelr cost that the laws of their country will take no cognizance whatever of any report they may in- simuate to his prejudice. Mr. Welsh desires it to be in- ferred that by using the term ‘‘records of the Police Court,” young Mr. McMahon has been frequently brought before that august body. I have already stated i never once re them, and if Mr. Welsh pay phd discovered some boyish freak, let him tell it out like a man, in print, if he likes, and have all the be- nett 6r it; but insinnations wrapped in falsehood are cowardly in the extreme. Welsh alludes to a statement’ made to him by one of the Magistrates who tried the case, to the effect that the was “no proof (?) of any of the ehargrs made exdépt the evidence of the young gentleman bimselt.” f Such was the case, and that the Court was not per- fectly varied of his guilt, why was the savage conyict- ed?

Dovotas Suirn, Col. Insp. Militia, EXTRAORDINARY IMPOSTURE EXPLODED! AN IMPORTANT QUESTION SETTLED ! Innumerable efforts have been ticians to square the circle. It is now admitted by rational men that no such thing 1s possible. A ques‘ ion of the same sort, nearly, is often propounded which, for the moment, may puzzle a man of slow wit, but which is eventually seen to be incapable of solution. likewise. Itis this ? What would be the consequence of an irte- sistible body coming in contact with an immoreable one? Very little consideration is required to enable one to dls- cern that this is a contradiction in terms. Tho closest approximation to a categorical answer that we evet heard of has been given by an eminent pathologist, Pro; fessor Hortowax, who has proved beyond all question that his extraordinary Pills and Ointment are irresistible in their effects on diseases’ which under every other tieatment were absolutely immoveable. This is no empty boast. it is true. We court disproof. Lfis medicines, we say, wre the greatest remedial agents that scientific genius ever invented. ‘* Pshaw,’? somo con- temptible professional starvling, or disappointed char- latan may explain, ** what is it all but quackery ! Igno- rant or unthinking people may be found to re-echo the charge. But stop, friends. You do not bear in mind that this very cry of ** quack-quack-quackery,” which iz us frequently rnised against the true thing as the false, savors itself of the greatest quackery. Besides, an im- osition cannot last for ever. If Hottoway's Medicines made by mathema- rear imposture they are the most gigantic ono that fr: darkened civ'lization, It they are an impostare, they have effected more good to humanity than thous- ands Of ostentatiously benevolent verities. If they are an imposture no other imposture has ever originated like them, for they are the result of the most profound physiological investigation and pathological skill, If they are an imposture tlien it is an impostare which the world has been thankful for. The most eminent medi- calmen of the age have testified to their unparalled effects as sanative agents. Princes and Potentates have borne voluntary testimony to their virtues. Nobles of natare’s making (as well as noblesot man’s making) have ahke acknowledged im terms of deserved eulogy their extraordinary powers. There is scarcely a news- paper throughout the world, which has not willin ly made itself the medium of communicating to the pubis the astounding cures which these Medicines have effect- ed, Most countries they have attained to a patron- ¢, the extent of which is perhaps without precedent when the comparatively brief coned of their introduction is takén into account. Professor Hottoway can pro- (lace almost countless numbers of written, acknowledg- ments Mp every clime and language) of their efficacy forwarded to him unasked. Where then is the imposture? « Let us state a few facts of greater interest. “It is paramout importance to perserve the blood in a healthy condition, because itis the vital fluid that is the priniple of life, and when it is affected the whole orginization is affected likewise. Hovtoway’s Pills clear the blood of all — and introduce a healthy con- dition of the body. His ointment acts in harmony with the Pills, when applied to external sores. Both invariably lead to this result. Afens sana in corpore sano, * asound mind in a sound body,— Sunday Courier, a = a= er ee News by Telegraph. : Marserirs, Aug, 27. An arrival from the Island of Crete brings the fol- lowing intelligence :—While a Russian war steamer was taking on board a number of refugees on tho Cretan coast, the commander of a Turkish man-of- war which was lyicg near, forbid any further em- barkation. The Russian Commander refused to desist, and both vessels run out their guns, and pre- pared for a fight, but Omar Pasha, the tommander of the land forces, who was on shore, immedi ately on Y |hearing of the danger, interfered, and preveniel an engagement, Lonvon, Ang. 27. Active preparations are being made tor the speedy departure of the troops from Todin to release the British prisoners iu Abysivia. Sir William Napier has been appointed to command the expedition, The lastreport statesthat the prisoners were no long- er in the power of King Theodorus, aad strong hopes are in consequence entertained that General Napier will suceeed in reaching them in time to save their lives. : Lonpow, Aug. 27, Accounts have been received from Spain which confirm the previous reports that the insurrection in the Province of Aragon had been successful. The General who led the Royal troops against the insur- gents was killed. He was a nephew to Narvaez, the chief of the Spanish Cabinet. Paris, Aug. 27, The Emperor Napoleon in a speech just made at Arros, significantly said :— ‘* Have faith in the future. Weak Governments often seek to divert public attention from domestic troubles by fomenting foreign broils, On the other hand, these Governments which rest upon the na- tional will have strength, and need on ly resort to whatever shall tend to promote the permanent inter- ests of the country as the means of upholding the honor of the national flag.” ’ Lonpon, Aug. 28, (even.)
