Every rational and thinking man must be thoroughly convincei that the existence of an intimate and friendly alliance between the two great kingdoms of England and France, is as essential te the real interests of both in a period of peace, as during the time of war. It is not only that these two majestic Powers, banded together in arms, are capabie of defeuding aud maintaining the rights of civi'ization aud ef rational liberty over the whole globe, but, united in the pursuits of peace, they have it in their power to extend the blessings of industrial enterprise, and the humanizing influences of the liberal arts, not not only im an infinite degree as botweon thom e'ves, but in a searcely less limited «dugrve to ey Tu ! generation of the human family. It is with no simull solicitude, therefore, that we look to the permanent maintenance of those friendly relations with our Gallic neighbours, which the circumstances of our having stood togetier in arms ia one of the woblest causes that ever nosheathed ; the swor! F war, has «> k poaly established between us. That thy advantages of such an alliance are appareat te the peoole of bork enuant 1ot be questioned ; that they will strive to muiatain then we will not doubt. Et must be confessed, however, that during the progress of the negotiations in the recent Conferences at Paris, an uneasy feeling began to insinuite itself into the Kuglish mind, that the Emperor of the French was not quite so true to the alliance with that having this country as he had professed to be; and, prolite ] us ir¢ required, by the powerful ¢ Operation ef Kogland in a moment cf dinger, he was not now that the im- ° ’ in‘lis posed, mediate cause of the allianee had ceased ta be ip operation, to ¢ ol in hits fr bisa }) towat ). ue, and tf) se k tour an ass0 ‘lation with some of the more ark rary powers of Europe, rather than eontinue in cluwe intias icy Wiha c untry pos- svssing the free ins:itutions of ties: Is'an ls.

The Emperor occupies a great position, which he has made for hiuself, and which he deserves, because it is founded upon entire confilence in his honour and fid. lity.

Herbert, a Member of the House : from ( alifornia, who shot the head waiter at Willard’s Hotel Cus morning, killing him instantly, has been arrested, and the } matter is undergoing investigation, As nearly as at present jean be ascertained, the circumstances are, that while Mr. Herbert Was cating a late breakfast at the public table of the hotel, & waiter gave him some insolence, when Mr. H. called for another waiter, who came and also treated him insolently. ! It is said that two or three other waiters then came in and | commenced an assault on Mr. Herbert, with chairs, plates, | dishes, &e. They then grappled with him, when several gentlemen «standing by interfered, but retreated on being turned upon by the waiters. Mr. Herbert's friends represent, that he fired only when it became evident that it was the de. sign of the waiters to kill him, and that after one was killed, | two others continued assaulting him until he was rescued by | his friends. Mr. Herbert is aided by counsel. Gen. Lane and Mr. McKay of California, saw the whole affair. Justice Smith and Bireh, at Washington on Saturday morning, delivered their opinions in this case, refusing bail sand committing the culprit to the custody of the marshal, to be tried by the criminal court of this district. Mr. Herbert | was in the afternoon taken before Judge Crawford, on a writ | Of habeas corpus, his counsel praying for his discharge. The }examination oceupied seyen hours. The judge will give his idecision on Monday. The understanding with both parties is that the minister for the Netherlands may then be examined, should he assent to the request to appear as a witness. Keating, the murdered man, was one of Mr. Willard’s principal waiters, and leayes a wife and two children. ; ' | Tar Wasutneron Homictpr.— Washington, May 12.—Judge | Crawford, this morning, rendered his decision with regard to ) the applieation for the discharge of Mr. Herbert. Among other things, he said: In any view a jury can take of the evidence, under proper instructions from the Court as to the law, it is quite clear a conviction for murder should not take place. If the evidence had left room for debate, as to whether the prisoner is guilty of murder or manslaughter, or was en- titled to an acquittal, although the ground for such debate might have been slight, I should have remanded him to prison, In relation to the last two questions, viz: whether a charge of manslaughter ean be maintained, or the defendant should be discharged, the testimony is contradictory ; and not only contradictory, but utterly unreeoncileable, and it is not for the Court, but the jury, to say what part of that testimony shall be eredited, and what the weight of evidence which may be addueed on a trial shall indicate. When a matter of fact is involved, it is the duty of the Court to admit to bail, or to re- mand to prison the person accused. To discharge the prisoner would be for the Court to try and decide as to facts, which properly belong toa jury to determine. The order of the Court is, that the prisuner enter into reeognizances in the sum of $10,000 as security for his appearance at the June Term of the Criminal Court, to answer to the charge of man- slaughter in the killing of Thos. Keating. James H. Barrett and James Owner, were aecepted as bondsmen, and the prisoner was released until the term of the Criminal Court. VioLeyt Deatrus rs Cattrorvta.—The Alta Californian }says :—The homicide and accidental calendar in California is one of fearful magnitude, and astounds us when we begin to contemplate and estimate the great number of persons who have met death by violent means, either dosignediy er ac- ;eidental, in our young and sparely pepulated State. Somé attempts have been made to keep an account of the homicides, but they became so numerous, or s0 common. as to be unim- portant, or from some other cause the record has been dis- jcontinued. It is thought by these well caleulated to judge from an extensive observation in California, that the number thus swept out ef existence suddenly and hy violent means, will equal an average of about five per day. A great pro- portion of this estimate is from aecidental causes, in con- 'sequence of the nec ssary exposure of the persons of those engaged in most mining localities. The Nevada Journal upon this subject says :— ‘The number of men who meet with violent deaths in California cannot be less than 1.400 a-year, at the rete these |deaths are occurring amongst us at present. The number re- sulting from mining casualties is enormously Jarge, and will | doubtless continue to inerease in proportion to the extension of hydraulic washing. Those killed in this manner are the bone and sinew of the State, and California could much better af rd to lose another class of men. The deaths by banks caving exceed at this time the homicide calondar. At the rate | this mortality goos on, it will require the average number of men brought by five steamers to supply the places of those | who meet with violent deaths.” Femate Riot.—Lynch Law.—The. “ Ladies”’ ahead. are going We should judge, after reading the subjoined incident, arty was largely in the ascendancy : ** At East Randolph, Cattaragus County, N.Y., a party of the most respectable ladies of the place had assembled as a | ‘* Surprise Party,’’ at the residence of Hon. Benjamin Cham- berlain, when it was suggested that a tavern kept by a man named Wheeler was an intolerable nuisanee, by reason of the liquor dispensed there, and they resolved to abate it. The landlord got wind of their purpose, however, and barricaded his doors and seereted his liquors, while his wlfe provided a supply of hot-water for the assailants. The ladies, however, were nothing daunted, and although the hot water did some execution, carried the place by storm, captured the landlord, and destroyed all his liquors. They attempted also to make ‘a eold water man’ of him by dipping him in the river, but he escaped from them. T'wo other liquor establishments were saved from violence only by a timely capitulation The women justify themselves on the ground that the landlord continued to sell to the brutalized husbands of some of them, despite entreaties, and they could obtain no other redress, | | -_<e@m COLONIAL NEWS. FALL OF THE MONTMORENCI SUSPENSION BRIDGE. Me.ancuory Loss or Lure—Severat Narrow Escares.—At a quarter to 9 o’clock on Wednesday morning, the new wire suspension bridge, erected by the Turnpike Trust over the Falls of Montmorenci, parted from its western anchorage, and instant- | ly went over the Falls, carrying with it three passengers and | horse and cart. The following particulars was gathered at the scene of the catastrophe :— The structure having been delivered over by the constructors for traffic on Monday week, the old bridge, a short distance higher up, was closed from that date, and all passengers were compelled to eross by the suspension bridge. On Wednesday |morning, at the hour above mentioned, Ignace Cote, a farmer of some, means, coming to market with his wife, Angelique Drouin, had got half-way over the bridge. They were both on foot, Cote being alongside the cart, and some fifteen paces is : on it }in advance of his wife. A young man named Louis Vezina, | thatin ‘* Cattaragus County, New York’’ the woman’s rights | 7 i cargo were sold to three Frenchmen, at a credit of some eight months; the master re-purehased the vessel; the cargo was | partly landed and taken eare of during the winter. In the month of April last, it appears the vessel was put afloat, and the cargo taken possession of by C. L. Armstrong, attorney for Noad & Brothers, Montreal, and others, the original shippers, and also for the underwriters, and the fact of such re-shipment wis duly endersed on the bills of lading which we have seen, The master, instead ef going into Miramichi to deliver his car- go pursuant to the bills of lading, which he had twice signed, passes that port, comes into Charlottetown, and attempts to sell the cargo. Steps have been taken to acquaint the owners of the facts, and it is to be hoped that, in the meantime, the authorities will lend their assistance to prevent the property being removed.—TJs/.

Isl & Ad SS = Important To Sutprens.—We clip the annexed paragraph from a late number of the Quebec Chronicle. The vessel alluded to was bound to this port, and the detention has put her consignees here to considerable inconvenience, and we apprehend the conduct of the Captain will subject some of them to heavy losses. “ The schooner Sago, of about 112 tons, W. T. Best, master | Which left Quebee about the 9th November last, for the Lower Ports, with a cargo of Provisions, was stranded on the east end of the Manicougan shoals, on the 16th of the same a onth. The master sold the cargo and vessel for a mere trifle, but as soon as Captain C. L. Armstrong, the indefatigable and attentive agent for the New York Board of Underwriters at this port, learnt the facts of the case, he wrote to Mr. T. Tetu, of Escoumins, to send down two men to the wreck, to see what was required by the master, and to take an inventory of the cargo saved. Keport was made that neither Mr. Best nor the purchasers would allow these men to interfere, statirg that the effects had been sold, and would be delivered over by the master according to such sale. Therefore, on the 26th ult., Captain Armstrong, anxious that the interests of the Board should not be sacrificed in the matter, set out in person from Quebec for the scene of the wreck, travelling, en carriole, nearly as faras Metis. There, he took a small boat with ten men, ad, despite the dangers of navigation at this season, crossed the St. Lawrence to the vessel. Upon his arrival he seized all the goods, and, with his men, having got the schooner off the sand, placed the greater part of her cargo on board. Bills of Lading being soon signed for the whole, Captain Armstrong left the master, who now expressed every willingness to act justly in the matter, to attend to the interests of all parties, and returned to Quebee after an absence of 22 days. We have no doubt the New York Board of Underwriters will appreciate the services of their Agent on this oceasion, and will concur with us in according Wa.
