Lecturefat St. James Hall.

Capt. W. A: Weeks appeared in St. James’ Hall last evening for the first time in the capacity of a lecturer. Notwith- atanding the many engagements elsewhere in the city, the captain was greeted with a fairly large audience, who seemed much pleased at the clever way in which he treat- ed the subject, *‘ How we fought in days gone by.”

He commenced by describing to his hear- ers the great and rapid advance made by the British people in Arts and Commerce, between Waterloo and the Crimea,—the struggle of the Greek and Latin churches in Palestine, which brought about the

dispute between Russia and Turkey, and which eventually resulted in dragging Eng- land and France into war. He related briefly the engagement between the Rus- sians and the Turks on the Danube, where the Turks, led by English officers, defeated the Russians and changed the plan of campaign, and also the determination of the British and French to destroy Sebasta-

pol. The iecturer then, by well- prepared charts, showed the ad- vance of the allied armies to the Alma,

the courageous onslaught of Codrington’s Brigade on the Russian redoubt—the sup- port of the Guards and the Highlanders de- monstrating the supremacy of line over column—the victory of the Alma and the march of the rilies feo the north side of Se- bastapol, conclu ling with the brilliant ex- ploits of Scarlett’s Brigade and Lord Car- digan’s Light Cavalry charge. Capt. Weeks resumed his seat amid loud applause, and received a unanimous vote of thanks for his highly interesting paper.
