I stood at tbe alter where Cromwell and Ben Jobnsn were married ; marked the pavement be neath which Fox, the author or •• Tho Book of Mar tyrs.” is buried; and read tho inscription on the Lucy vault—a family satirized lu the character of Shallow, and which Incarnates for everlasting ridicule the sa pient Justice who would have proved Shakspeurc a deer-stealer. I examined the quaint old tomb of the historian Specde; and, from a window, looked upon a fragment of a Roman wall—the greatest antiquity of London, hard by the venerable Cripplegate. Over against a pew, a familiar bust marks the spot beneath which are the mortal remains of Milton ; and his epi taph is grand in Its simplicity—'* Tbe author of Para dise Lost.” Ho and his father before him were in ten- dauts of this church. How sublime to the imagina tion Is this otherwise not remarkable temple, where that beautiful head was bowed in prayer l 1 recalled bU image os it lay In youthful beauty, one summer afternoon, on tbe greensward, under the clawlo trees of the collego lawn, when a fair lady hung entranced above the sleeper, end left a scroll In his nerveless hand. I saw him in his prime, conversing with Gall leo, and looking forth, with all a poet’s rapture, upon Val d’Arno from the wooded summit of Fiesole. I beheld him when timo had silvered his flowing hair, with sightless orbs uplifted, as his lingers ran over the organ-keys, and the calm of devotion softened tho lines of care and grief in that raaiestic counte nance. The picture he bequeathed of Eden, fragrant and dewy as creation’s morning, Ah* forlorn glory of Satan, and the solemn oidence of the verse that em balmed, in perpetual music, the story of " maus first disobedience,” came vividly back noon my heart be side his sepulchre. Stern Cromwell’s rugged visage grew mild os his marriage resnonso woke ugain from the silence of years, and blitnely sounded the foot steps of rare old Beu, as ho walked aguin with his beloved, in my vision, up that solitary nave.

A letter in the Journal des Debats, speaking of the composition of the Turkish Army, says: “ You are doubtless aware that among tho irregular corps of the Ottoman army there are already u certain num ber of Christians; they are said to amount to seven or eight thousand, mostly Catholics oi Bosnia or Al bania. It is now in contemplation to form regular corps of Christians. Tho government will commence by u regiment of Cossacks, Christians of the Greek Church, who emigrated in tho timo of the Greater Catherine, and to whom the Turkish Government gave land in Dobrodia, on the right bank of the Dan ube. A regiment of 900 horsemen is to bo raised, which will be commanded by 8adyk Pacha, a Polo by birth, and who, after having made the campaign of Poland, in 1830, came and demanded an asylum in France ; and when the Republic withdrew from him the passport which secured to bitn protection, he went to Turkey. M. Chaikowsky there became Sa- dj* Effendi, and has only recently been raised to the rank of Pacha. He is ono of tho most determined enemies of the Russian government, and bis well- known sentiments have caused him to be on two oc casions personally named in the dispatches from St. Petersburg!! to tbe Divan. This regiment will be formed at Constantinople; and to prove that Mussul mans can live on good terms with Christians, these Cossacks, during the timo necessary for their instruc tion, will bo quartered In a barrack partly occupied by a regiment of Turkish cavalry. The new note proposed by France and England has just been pre sented to the Divan, and, contrary to wlmt was at first thought, it is England which urges, in the warm est manner, its signature by the Porte. It i9, how ever, positively Btated that tho document has riot yet been aubmltted to the council of Ministers, and, ac cording to general belief, there is no doubt of its be ing rejected.—Liverpool Times. From the Sent ot War. The Cleveland people seem disposed to make fun of their neighbors at Erie, who have shown such a E lacky disposition. The following is from the Cleve- tnd Herald: Oar special reporter furnishes us with an abstract of tbe patriotic address delivered at Erio by Captain Ebonezer Scoutz, to his detachment of D. S. Fusi- leers, just previous t) tho attack on the enemy's bridges. Whilst wo lament tho necessity of the gal lant officer's taking the Held, wo cannot but admire his eloquence and plnck. Tbe distinguished captain, whose breast was adorn ed with tho badge of the Erio order or Qolden Fleece, and In whose cap was displayed tho figure of a tor tolse beautifully worked iu Erie brass, waa fully arm ed for a desperate conflict. Iu one hand he flourished a huge Bologna sausage; his coat pockets were Oiled with eggs of unmistakable odor, (supposed to beom- blomatlcal of the reputation of Erie,) and in his belt were stuck two giuger pop bottles, loaded to tho very corks. Thus equipped, he mounted an empty . whuky barrel, (the funner contents of which Imd ' been transferred to tbe throats of tho D. S. Fuslleers,) and retsed his right hand with tbe BologOa sausage pointing to a little streak of a cloud.

As 1 ah avenue of commercial, business aud general Intel- ! ligencc, It must prove of great value to Liverpool and Manchester, and os affording such matter will be sooght after even on this side of the Atlantic. Its terms to advance paying subscribers out of Liverpool are £3 IDs per aunnm *, XL 18s half year; £0 19s Gd per quarter. It is tho first and ouly dally paper ever established in Liverpool, In summlug up Its defence against tho strictures of a correspondent upon .a previous editorial which ap peared in its columns, doubting the propriety of in discriminate distribution of charity funds in foreign lands, to the negleotof its own poor and heatheu subjects, tho Times very justly remarks; “We h&vemach charity, but It la misplaced aud misdi rected—many hospital* fur the lick, but all who have visi ted auch Institutions on the Continent, must know how iu- finitely preferable (t is to see a dellcatn Sister of,Charity performing kind office* for prostrate humanity, than llie uncoulhand unsymiwthlzing nurses, hardened by their vo cation. who aro frequently to be found at homo.

England possesses a splendid aristocracy amid benighted heathenism and abject poverty ; and her charities are dispensed iu a manner to exalt tho well-born and still farther depress the lowly. Such.U English authority, tho truth of which we Americans have no right to question. Wo are glad to discover in an English newspaper what we believe to be an boaost independence of thought, and the ability to give it expression. Wo welcome tho Times to this side of the water, fully trusting its views will bo impartially considered and appreciated. t’ne Captain bowed, coughed twice, drew his coat sleeves across his face and across the small of his back, aud began hi* oration thus: " Friends, follow oitizens, and members of this ’ere invincible army s We are met here this day to carry • it a great Idear : to show to the world that there Is oae plaoj in this ’ere world, and that place is Erie I [Uneers.] We aren’t agoing to bu bullyragg’d by uo railroads wbatsumever, nor by nobody else.

This gentleman, who has relinquished his editorial duties for a timo, on account of the condition of his health, is devoting tho interval, we perceive, in lec turing. Of an address delivered nt Utica, ou tho Utli Inst., the Utica Herald says ; “Mr. Godwin’s audience last evening was all that could have been desired, both in point of numbers and in charac ter. Ills topic had been announced as ••Art.” but upon deliberation he had concluded to depict and elucidate the marks of progress during the past bulf century, lie spoke of the strides of political advancement, or the literary growth of tho race, of tho tncreuso of scientific knowledge, and of tho achievements In the mechanic arts, which the past fifty years have witnessed Ho alluded to tho noble, benevolent enterprises that had grown up in that period, and claimed that mankind Is not only wiser, and better as well,than at any former time. How he maintained bis posi tion by historic facts; by logic made them Impregnable, and by imagination beautiful as a poet's dream, few who heard him will soon forget—none who did not hear him will appre ciate. We attempt no sketch; the lecture waschasteand vigorous, In many passages attaining to a masterly elegance tnd elevation, entirely worthy of the theme, tho nudienco, and the author.” We wish some inducements might ba held out to Mr. Godwin for him to turn his steps hither ward. Wo will mention [wo, which so readily sug* and others to act upon them. First: in coming South he would escape the rigors of a Northern winter, and donbtless fully regain what he is mainly in pursuit of —health. Second : He would furnish to our people what they are capable of appreciating—a high order of literary entertainment. Shall we have the pleasure of welcoming him to Savannah ? First let our young meu speak, then let Mr. Godwin answer. Rkmains cp Count Pulaski.—Wc stated on Wed nesday last, from information given us the night pre vious, it was probable tho remains of Brigadier Gen eral Count Pulabki, had been discovered. Wo are now happy to state that there is no longer any doubt on tho subject. The skeleton remains entire of the once valiant soldier have been carefully gathered up, and will doubtless receive that respect duo to the great soul that once animated them. Too much praiso can not be awarded those whose untiring searches have been so richly rewarded.

In a case on trial before that court, the question aroso whether money remitteg by mail from a debtor to a creditor, such money beiug lost before it reached its destination, was a release of the debtor from obligations of tho debt. The Chief Justice decided that-tho plaintiff having requested bis debtor to remit tho money, without specifying or direrting how it was to be sent, and the dclendant having complied with tho request by remitting through tho moil, as was tho custom with others to do, tho debtor would not bohuld liable to make good tho loss. The decision is in conflict with other coses involving tho same principle, tho Chief Justice hold ing that tbe former decisions were incorrect.
