When Omar Pacha reached the spot, he drove them all away, but not before every one or the bodiu was atarlt naked. 'I‘he greater number seemed very ung men, some more boys : all were an expression of-‘perfect repose; no straining or distortion was vmible either in the features or the limbs; they lay like men who were weary and slept. Many were half buried and crushed under the tombstones, which the round-shot and the rockets had Iiurled from their “aces, and sent flying in pieces in all directions. any of the Russians had still it shred of a shirt or an old pair ofdrawers clinging to their mangled romaine, and it would have required no great stretch ofimagiiialiiin, to have supposed them the pettcezible tenants of the tonihs around, who had risen to ask the cause of the wild tumult which ranged above their bodies In all 200 bodies were collected and buried by the Turks. As the artillery must have Carried offa large portitin of theirs. as is usually the ease, I think the Russian loss inny befairly estimated It 800 killed and 700 wounded. The Turks have lost 80 killed and 200 wounded. These accounts _ both exceed my rough guess, given in u telegraphic deepatcli immediately after the action. The damage done to the fortiﬁcations was very triﬂing. and was repaired in three or four hours. 'l‘lie troops are now working night and day in strengthening the position, and I think no fears whatever, considering the large force which garrisons it, and notwithstanding the enormous masses of artillery with which the Russians threaten it, need be entertained as to its safety. The whole of Liprandi‘s division is supposed to be here. They have an overwhelming force of cavalry all round the town, and they are right, for no ﬁner cavalry ground, I suppose, exists in the world. 'l‘lie whole country from this to Perekop is one immense plain. smooth as a bowling green.

The Russians have retired nearly two leagues hence. The niainguard of their cavalry is, however, still in the plain, below the town. e videttes are less numerous than before the attack. It is considered not improbable, that their next attempt will be made in the right. I oulitted to mention. that seven of the inhabitants of the town were killed and twenty wounded in the nlfiir of the l7th. 'I'he want of sur-

BRITISH RECRUITING IN NEW YORK.

If ever ncity was ﬁlled with “ the cnnkersot‘ a calm world and a long pence ;” if over city stood in need of phlebotomy and depletion, that cit. is New York. We are therefore rejoiced to earn, that Queen Victoria, in her hour of need, in her lack of food for powder on the shores of the Black Sea, has bethought herself of her stray subjects and licgcmen who have been subsisting on the doles of public and

rivute char-it in the Empire city of the estcrn Worl , during the past winter. The Know Nothings will certainly thank her for re- caiming her subjects in the streets of New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and the other American centres of population.

It seems that r. An us McDonald, the British recruiting agent in 'ew York. is meet- ing with abundant success in his endeavours to

ll the exhausted ranks of his sovereign's armies on this side of the water. Need Rhinelanders, l’ntlii.nders and expatriated John Bulls, who fondly imagined, that they had forc- sworn their allegiance to the Imperial Lady of _the Isles, forever and aye, will shortly find themselves once more under the folds of the banner ofSt. George.

Some of the New York journals, with dccidcd Russian proclivities, are somewhat indignant at the success which the British recruiting ser cant is meeting)with, in their cit , and are cal ing upon Mr. istrict Attorney lcKcon to look to it, that tlie'neutrelity laws are not vio- lated; but it seems, that Mr. Angus .\lcDonald is conducting his business in such a manner, as to dodge those laws completely. And if he should make himself obnoxious to their penal- ties, we do not think, that anybody but is mania- cal admirer of Russian Czerism would lodge is complaint against him, for, all things con- sidered, his errand to New York is n merciful one, in view of the pinched bellies and forced idleness and misery, which have been the lot of hosts of the laborlesa poor of that city for months past. It seems tint the Crimean fever has not attacked the ex-European po ulntion of New York alone. Native American owery- dom has been seized. “ Mose” would feign ﬁnd vent for his pugnacity in is skriinmzige with the Russians round Scvustopol. The cool- blooded and dare-d—-l audacity of “ Mose” and his unconqueriible ropensitytodisﬁgurc the profiles of his ncig ibours, and to draw their cliiret, which only make a rulliin and out- law of him iit home, which only lead to Sand- wix llull tragedies in Gotham. would win hiiu an abuiidaiit harvest of lziurels, and make a hero of him on the shores of the Black Sea. What it held Sergeant McDonald's offer opens to discontented, restless and disappointed ﬁlibusteros and cx-:\Iexice.ii olliccrs and soldiers, who have been forced to give up the idea. of_ ravishing the Queen of the Antilles from its; Custiliaii proprietors.

That we have not noticed the delivery of this lecture at an earlier period, must not 8‘tl.l.tI'l- hated to any want of respect for tliollev. treatie- man, nor it due appreciation of the importance of the subject.

Mr. Stark, in giving his account of tl_ie_na.- tare and aim of the moral and norinnltrninin - schools, the ado tion of which, with its cos y apparatus, of p atforms and lay-grounds, is to make Prince Edward Islan_ “ll. model an example " to surrounding provinces, omitted state that the end and aim of r. Stow s iucthod—tbo one professed by Mr. Sta.rk—is not only to have the bible read and expounded every morning, but that moral training means bible ti-u.ining,and that the bible must notonly be read, but taught, in the normal schools and colleges. under the system in force at Glasgow. It was to supply this omission that Mr. Fitzgerald came orward, and frankly stated that, in his opinion, and in that of several very ‘eminent men. whose names were mentioned _an sentiments quoted in the course of the evening, no system of education could be pronounced

rfect, no code of morals pure, which was not Based on the principles of christianity: and that, in order to reduce the religious and moral ellect which should be the aim of every a stem of education, it is essentially necessary that the bible. the whole bible, be adopted in the schools as a class book. but the maxi_ms of christianity are the only safe basis on which to erect a permanent super-structure of morali- ty, is a truth which no one will ever pretend to inipu n- d that these maxinis are to be sought or the bible on y, every class of cbristiuiis readily admit. '1‘ e second part of Mr. Fitzgerald's proposition will not meet with such universal concurrence,iind this the Rev. Lecturer candidly admitted. We have ever deprecated the introduction of discussions on topics of religious dilfercnces, whether of faith or practice. into the columns ofn newspaper; they seldom, if ever, produce conviction: and they never fail to aggravate that worst of all species of animosity, religious rancour. In this Island, two~tiftlis, at the least. ofits Inha- tants profess the Roman Catholic Faith; and it must, we think, a pear obvious that nnysyatcm of education irliic is to‘ be sustained at the cxpcnsc of all. and under which all are to be taught ulikc, must, in order t benoliciiil, meet with general iipprobiitio here it is that the «liliiculty begins. that the Scriptures are not the rule onimon to

After years of anxious perseverance, of _undevia. ting pursuit towards the desired object of their wishes -éafler the disappointments, the obloquy and suffer- ings, of those who earnestly advocated the cause of the people, by seeking the introduction of a Court of Escheat—after having been disappointed by excellent promises, brow-beaten by the liirelings of the propri- etary faction, their delegate repulsed from the Colonial otlice, and themselves obliged to yield their sturdy opinions up to the force of arms, the people in the years forty-eight and forty-nine, WlllI_l|ldOVba- ting cousisteiicy and unwavering pursuit, again resumed their opposition to the proprietary rule, and returned a majority to the Assembly of 1850, who overturned the late. and obtained the present system of governing, and who, by the desertion of the land question, have aroused against them the ire of their own supporters. Sir, the people to the Eastward are becoiniug alive too, and those to the West will soon follow, in tracing we have only obtained a change of men, but not of the principles of governing on this very important question.

I have thought Mr. Editor, a few recollections from the pen of a friend closely connected with the political events of the country, from the time last named to the present period might not be uninterest- ing, and the revelation of these things at the present moment is desirable, and probably will are long, burst with the indignant fury which sonietiinee marks the bitterness of disappointment in it conﬁd‘ people, on the heads of those upon whom they have relied.

So many representations have been put forward through the press, by the rtizans of the different political parties, each professedly labouring to culti- vate the understanding, that either were the advocates of the rights of the people, all so contradictory and of such a conflicting nature, at least so far as regards the adherence of those in power towards the popular cause, that any unbiased mind, willing to arrive at the truth. would have to wade through such a slough of contradictions, recriminaiion and {personal abuse, as would involve hiiri in a maze of allaciee, from which nothing but inconsistency and confusion can be drawn; at least, viewing the actions of the parties or er in my own mind, such appears the con- clusion.

Under the old oligarcliic away, one unwavering conception had t.-iken possession of the minds of the people; they believed the government of that time were so stvtlilgly prepossesscd and interested in favor of propriettiry clainni, that any scheme, however just or eqiiitnlily frnined, which touched upon an iiivesiigution of the rights of title of the grantees,

would be rejected with disdain, althou h urged upon llIt'ln by the iieccssiiies ofihe cotintry,l e uncertainty of the landed tenure, ns well as the deliberate and rt-peateil resolutions of the Assembly; the latter body. the Eiglitcciitti (iencral Assembly in their first See- sion in the _u-ur I550, were so well aware of this fact, aml nftlu-. slight regard licretoforo paid by the government in the will of the body which they repre- sented, tliat .-iliiiintt with one accord iln-y stood for

eapoiinililoe or :-felf-govcrnnicnt, us then ulfered by Iler l\liijcsi_v's llinisters, under the iniprdssion, that the pl'llIl:lple-is of that system of government would alone insure to the country, the equitable settlement of this grievance, which they had laliored under so long to remove. '

Such, then, Mr. I-Editor, was the state of things, as well as the course of feeling which guided the Assem- bly prior to the introduction of tlic ptesent system of (ioveiiiineiit, nor dol conceive this opinion can be
