This Icon sider a stretch of power, considering that the English particularly hav^ no right to- interfere with our flag, in the prosecution of such a voyage; atter having suffered us to embark those men at Plymouth, and. trail knowing their destination This thing I hope, will'be looked into by the U. 8. ‘government and settled, so that we may /enow howfpr, and in what cruc John-Bull ha* a right io order us off from ports ever which they certainty have no jurjsniction, dthave no mure right’t Idockad rl a i.other nations—orif they have, I am in hopes it will be no longer kept a secret,, and the grounds on which they claim this right, be ing immediately made known to other na tions, agl especially to tneir own subject* at home. -1; appears by the 7tli No.ofthe Foreign Bibliography, which has just been issued by Mr. Bebroftliis city, that 111. Charles Lucas lias published gt Paris a View of ' the Penitentiary System in Europe and the United Statu, utith several plops of prison* and statistical labia. The first article in the work is a petition to the Chambers re commending the appiopriation-of a liberal sum for primary instruction as "the best method of preventing crimes, and urging alsolhe execution of the law ofthe, 0thof Sept. 1814, relative to the adoption of the penitentiary system in France. The ob ject of this.law was to make tho experi ment of a prison in iv.hioh should be con fined all persons sentenced for 'crimes un der tlie age of 2(Tyears; soineivhat upon the plan of our House of Refuge ax prison for juvenile Delinquents. Among-the o- ‘viler articles in the volume is a.translation of |,he Report of Edward Livingstojt, in troductory to the code of prison, discipline and reform prepared by him for the State of Louisiana. Notes by ?,t Lucas are an nexed to this report, and then follows the text of the code itself, illustrated also with tho notes of M. Lucas. Thus does our own country, which derived its laws from Europe, repay the obligation, by tho light which tho labours bruits own citzdns thru ' upon the difficult anil important sci ence of legislation.—ft.'

The men lost from the Ann wero, Reuben Hi Mosman and Elbririge, first ami seednd mates, ami sons of the captain,and George Hai l, of St. George, Me. These two seliou ners left Chatham, on'the day on which they were wrecked, in company w ith two .other's, whose names*Capt. Me does not re collect ; these two are supposed also lo be wieckedS—lb.

In the course of some conversation, a fyw days since, with a gen tleman who hopes all tilings, and believes all things (good) for Ireland, we asked hit opinion, of the.prospects of tlie Catholics, lie requested its to mark down his prophe cy. which we now do, perhaps rather more publicly'than he intended. “The minis terial party will offer the Catholics (tie boon theydesirk; but.ihey will connect it with the necessity of some concession or tome inadmissible provision—so that the odium of a.refu'sal will come upon those who no* so warmly petition.’’— U.

The Intelligencer of this morning cities ns the followingexfrntt from Mr. Clay’s speech-to'his partisans at Cumberland : " Whether he should hereafter take any part or not in public affairs, was a ques tion,, requiring many comiideraliont. to be weighed-and among them that arising out of tno state of his health, . He should ma tnrely deliberate on them all, alter hit re turn home. Wherever the result might he he would always retain a grateful recollec. lion of the friendly, withes and sentiments which had been just expressed-”. .. . When tills declaration is coupled with Mr. Clay’s proclamation that he is yet erect -and ready lo obey the call of his fiends, made .in his dinner speech at Bar nard’s—and to these is added the following remarks made at the Mechanics’ supper in Hagerstown, it would appear that he had resolved to enter the next Congress. Mr, Clay said: "It would be folly and madness to shot our eyes and conceal front ourselves the fact, that a great, and I fear,' a doubtful struggle is just at hand. ‘ The Hail of tlie House of Representatives will he its tliea Ira; and at the next sesion ol Congress the tugofwarw.ill beyhere exhibited ” Knowing Mr.'Clay’s restless ambition, wo bejievethat'he speaks tiulv, when he says, that lie intends to deliberate mature, ly. after hit return home, before be deter mines whether lie will enter'Congress as a combatant tor hi* system j pr enter t|ie State Legislature fur the purpose' of'dril ling hfs regulars into a belter knowledge of the mysteries of his political.tB,ctics : —Let him choose us he may; his opposition to the administration of the people's Presi dent will be as unsuccessful as lie is qinbi tiousand unprincipled.—U.

The number of persons present was fifteen hunrlred. Advice to Young Soldier*.—The sold iers, seeing I wns'a spirited youth, and a competitor with them for glory, gave me a few salutary hints, especially a-. “ old ve teran” ofthe 7lilli Foot,-who had boon then fighting about twenty years in the East.. Among the hints he gave me were these: 1st. Never to pass a man lying down, or supposed to be dead,without giv ing him the point of the bayonet or sword; for it was a common trick of theirs td lay down- on your approach, and then watch the opportunity of cutting you down. 2d Whenever I saw a rocket, or shell, fall near me, to get as close to it as possible, and lav mvselffl.it on my face. This wai undoubtedly very excellent advice ; but I soon got tired of 'rilling dead' men, and lying down every time I saw a rocket; the having neglected to do which,on one occa sion, however, nearly cost me my lifo which 1 shall mention in its proper plaoo.
