A sprig of nobility, who thought it a
nixie thing to “ go a soldiering,” purchas
ed a commission in the allied army, and
went to the Crimea. Perhaps he had
formed his notions of war from eampgigu-
iug at Chobham or Sartbrv, with their
blank c artridge engagements, and mock
fights- Or they may have been afflicted
xvith nerves,.'which no real soldier -is sup
posed to possess. From whatever cause,
when his division were brought to the
chai-ge in the dreadful battle in Inkermaun,
poor Lord Forth played the coward, shak-
iug in his shoes and bellowing like a very
calf.AYhen the battle.was over, his sword
was broken before the army ;, be was thrust
but of the, camp on board a ship and .sent
home in disgrace.
We would nOt form censorious judg
ments ; but really we'cannot help , think
■ng that if there were the same exact
discipline in the camp of Israel as in that
before SpbastopoV there would be a sad
number of broken swords a great thinning

We regret to learn that several exten

ty on Friday last resulting in considerable
loss to several planters. The most exten
sive one broke, out on the plantation of
Win. E. Bird, Esq., after burning about
one thousand panuels of fence for him.—
It then passed through Mr-David Dickson’s

I'here seems to be some truth in the ru
mor that the Emperor Louis Napoleon has
entertained serious intentions of proceed
ing to the Crimea. A letter received
from Paris, speaking on ; this subject,
says:— - - .-.) 1 ■ /. ; > }
“ Admiral Ilatnelin was consulted as to
the" time the voyage out and hick would
occupy. Although the Ministers have,
unanimously disapproved of it, the Empe
ror has not yet intimated that he has
'abandoned his determination. At a di
plomatic dinner given yesterday by M.
Drouyu da I’lluys the conversation turn
ed almost entirely oil the Emperor’s pro-
posod voyage aud some of the. Ministers
oreserit seemed still to doubt if the plan,
had been abandoned as they had received
no express intirpation to that effect, from,
the Emperor himself.”
Another letter says: ’ *.) .; •*
“ Tlie rumor which has taken every one
bv supprise, and which has discontented
most of. those who have heard it, and
-which has produced so great q fall in the
public securities, is still persisted in- 1
allude to the departure of the Emperor
ror to the ; Crimea..; It continues to be the
topic of conversation, and though there
are a few who still disbelieve it, yet sever
al who were yesterday and the day before
among the most incredulous, now begin to"
give way. They call to mind that the
Emperor is a sort of fatalist, that he is
firmly persuaded he has a mission tg> fulfill,
that no danger, no difficulties are great
enough to prevent that fulfillment, that he
is destined to restore the glory of his
name and the nation he rules over, and
that the capture of Sebastopoi under his
own eye, and perhaps under his command,
would give his reign a pr'estige far beyond
that of Algiers, and nearly equal to that
of: his great undo.”- • ■ - . •

complete failure. He did not make a

strength of the manure. His failure
imparted a great lesson, and if pre
