The great Western Mail, which depart usually from Alexandria at one or two o’ clock in the morning of three days in the week, lost a trip on Tuesday morning from a curious cau-e—nothing less than a con troversy between the watch ant] driver of the mail carriage, in which their respective dignities wore concerned, and which con troveray was of course very hotly main; tained. It seems the signal for calling the watchmen to one another's aid is that of i horn, which each of them carries by his bide. The dri er of the mail, too, to announce hi* arrival and departure, sounds a bugle whose blast had mure than once startled the watchmen from their slumbers. N*. longer choosing to tolerate this invasion of what they supposed to be their exclusive privilege, the watchmen, theirbreasts fired with noble rage, arose in their mignt, on Monday night, at the bugle’* sound, silen ced the driver by main force, overpowered him, and lodged him in the watchhouse for some hours. It remains for the learned Judges to de didethe knotty point of law, whici is thus presented, as it is stated that the Contrac tors intend to institute suit for damages sustained by the failure of a mail.—ib.
