Lord J. Russell said lie was afraid the replies he had to make would not bo altogether satisfac tory to the lion, member. With respect to the first section—whether the troops had recently Iwcn increased in Lower Canada; he believed there had been some sent from New llrunswick 4o Lower Canada, Lord (iosloul having been au thorised to withdraw them. With respect to any application which had been made for any increased force, bo must for the present decline answering the i|uealion which had been pul to him (bear, heat) ; and with respect to the desertion of soldiers belong- , fug to her Majesty's troops in Loner Canada he was nut aware that any accounts to that el- i licet had reached this county, although ho knew, that attempts had been made, a id pains hud been taken, by seditious persons in the colony (loud 1 vrhesvtt front the opposition,!, in order to promote 1 desertion among Her Majesty's troops.

Nothing material occurred until Ist Dec. at half past 5 o’clock, A. M. during thick, heavy squalls ami Irish galea from East, the Schr. struck on the Florida Reef, about 100 miles North ofCape Florida. Every endeavor was made to get her off, which proved fruitless. The boats were then got out and the o.ltcers and crew landed on the beach, about a quarter of a Hide f rom the wreck, with a small quantity of provisions and their clothes. Tfio crew built a lent ol Tarpaulins, intending to wait a favorable opportunity for boarding, Tne weather on the following morning was more moderate, the crew succeeded in sav ing a few more articles from the wreck. They immediately after returning from tne wreck re I Used to do duty, and proceeded along the beach to the taunt iwurd. At 10 A. M. mi Indian was seen approach ing from the Northward. Capt. MeW. mi med.ately advanced to meet Inin, and spoke to linn in tJpanisli, when he laid down Ins arms and shook hands with both Captain and Male; he was then invited to the lent, and he was given as much provisions os Jjtj could cat, and some provisions to take with him. After being with them one hour, he It’ll, Buying ho would return the next day at the sumo he ghl ot the sun. As soon ns ho was out of sight, many exertions was made | to leave the beach, expecting every mom cut ito be shot down by them. The crew nut re j turning, an Ulempt was made to launch the j long boat through the surf, but. vas inoflectu i al, as site tilled at each surge; the project was | then abandoned until the men returned. About 4 o’clock, 1' M they were very much 1 alarmed on being informed of the visiter, they hid hold of the until and endeavored to force her through tne surf, but she immediately swamped. A proposition was then made among them to walk to the southward, taking with mem 4 pounds provisions, leaving Hie captain, mate, cook, and one seaman beinnd. Cupt McVV then proposed to endeavor to get the Jolly iloat which was attached to the Davits, which was done by w admg and swtm muitr, they then endeavored, utter procuring some provisions, to put to sea, but were com pelled to put back, owing to tne heavy sea Unit w'us breaking on me Reefs, it being about ingiit, concluded to go back to the tent and await their fate. About midnig..t, ilia watch gave the alarm that the Indiana were approaching. Tno l-ap lam and Mule, Cook and Seamen, made oil" tor the woods, on reaching which, they crawled on i their hands and knees, and alter proceeding m ! this way some lime they stopped, listened, Jbut they could heat nothing. In about ten minutes I an Indian was seen coming towards them. They then proceeded on until ’.hey came to a Iresit water pond, with water about knee deep with very hgh grass; they travelled about, halt a mile in th.s place, w hen they concluded to make for the beach, supposing they might do so utipercoived by the Indians. On urn. ■ v.ng al the beach ami perceiving no one, they I made the best of their way to the Southward At y, A M. found one ot our men was hubs mg, not knowing but he nad fallen into the hands of the Indians and been killed. They continued on until day-light, this be ing Sunday—they went into the woods and | procured water, and refreshed themselves. | About 10 lell the woods, and saw their road clear, and again commenced travelling with speed. They then saw the track of a boot or shoo in the sand—concluded it was the miss ing man, and hurried i n to overtake him. /?otwe ti 1 and 2 o’clock, they overtook j him asleep, along side ot a log. They contin ued travelling until 7 I’. M, when they score ted themselves, (o obtain eorne rest and water. I They rested until 3, A.M. wlicn they went i into the Woods to rest—having had nothing meal for 36 hours—iheir legs and feet very much cut and torn, rendering their situation truly deplorable. Alter resting until neon, proceeded on, when they saw the wreck of a schooner, and some persons approaching—fearing they were Indians in pursuit, look to the woods, I and scattered themselves in some pahneltoes, j Alter wailing some lime in dreadful suspense I I ami supposing they had . iissod, rhey left the ] I woods, and examined their tracks —found ' they were not those of Indians—judged them | to be belonging to the lour men that bad left the wreck. One of the crew stalled and overlook them. In a short time they were ad together, eight in number. They having some bread left, wo got one biscuit a piece, which gave great relief. They then all continued their march south, subsisting principally on rotton oranges and cocoa nuts, that drifted ashore. At two o’clock We again sought the bush es to procure some rest, aa their legs and feet was in such a dreadful condition, that they could scarcely sleep. At day light continued their march south, allowing them selves half a huscuit a piece. At 9 A. M. waded across a creek waist deep—-at noon tell in with the wreck of a three masted schooner, the Industry ot Mon treat. They rested some time, and proceed cd on, suffering all kinds of torment for want ot provisions, and clothing snffic.'fcni to cover themselves, being nearly naked. At 7 P. M. i fell in with a deserted |, u t in which they] look shelter lb' the night. At 6 A M. the i following morning, commenced the it journey i s'Uith, their feel and lin Is being very much swollen, and subsisting on land ciabs, raw fish, &c. At SP. M. tamo to a large ii let, but being unable to cros-, from ibe depth ol water, that night they ee| orated, and laid among the sand lulls. On lie followup morning they constructed a raft of legs. The captain and (our men, that could not swim, crossed over wi ll it—the male and men swam over, one of them loosing all his cloth ling, leaving lion entirely naked. At BA. M. I they were all safely landed, when the remain der of the bread, oue buscuit a p ccc, was equally divided. At It) o’clock, saw a sail to northward standing south, a halt was made and signals shown, in expectation that they might come to their assistance, and these hopes were en tertained until 3 o’clock, when she stood off, paying no attention to their signal, tdhe wis near enough at one time to see the men on ’ deck. 7’ney continued travelling to SP. M. * w hen they look tho woods lor shelter, and at 3 A M they commenced their dismal jour,.oy stinth. At 8 A M found an old canoe on the beach* partly finished. It was then proposed i to launch tier, the men declined, staling that . I hey wt ro w orn nut and cOuld do no more. , Part of them proceed on, leaving two behind, who finding their comrades would not assist was compelled to follow them. At 9 o’clock they saw (Jape Florid» light lious •; with a i renewed spirit they continued their march; i nt loort they earn*} to a river—timing it sould not bo crossed without a boat or raf, and no materials on hand to build one of, it was proposed to go back and get. the canoe; when they had proceeded hilf way from the river to the canoe, saw the same s homier— it being near night the men refused to go any further at that time. Captain M. using his best endeavors with them to reach tho canoe that night—remained during the whole night exposed to ram and cold, part of tin in emg nearly nake- and no shelter. Ai daylight they commenced travelling in the direction of the canoe, and 10 A. M reached her. With considerable difficulty she was launched, when they found she would contain but three. They thou com menced paddling her, the remainder waked along the beach At noon tiny all arrived at the river. With considerable difficulty, they all crossed in safety, and continued South, the mate anil one man remaining in the canoe, and nroceedmgSouih. About 4 o’clock, they came to another river in the vicnnly of the Light House. The mate and one man volun teered to cross the river, and visit the Light House, ns fears were entertained that the In dians might be in possession of it. The vol unteers alter pro ceding cautiously, within half a mile of the Light House, and seeing no person or signs, ventured into the building, it being completely deserted. Finding no assistance, returned back to the canoe, picking up along the beach a number of rotten oranges, and proceeding back to their shipmates whom they found in a distress ed situation on the beach, being annoyed by Mosquitoes in abundance, —they had killed ml Oppossnm and Pelican, winch they commenc e I eating raw. Sunday, Dec. 10, it was resolved, that an attempt must be made to reach the hghtbciat, distance about GO miles. Three several at tempts were then nude, which proved fruit less, the men being completely worn out w ith fatigue—thoy crossed from the Island to ibe li tit bouse, as they were unable to remain, I owing to swarms of mosquitoes. A fourth at tempt was then made in ilic canoe to reach the light boa', by the male and one Beaman, when rhey succeeded in rescuing the wreck ing seiir. Banner, Capt. Hoxey, at night. On ihe following morning, Capt. 11. got tho schr. under way, beat up to the (Jape, and landed nt OA. M. Captain M. being un ibie to walk, from Ins wounds and bruises. After remaining two days on board the wrecker, proceeded to Indian Key, where every altcn ion was aid the sufferers, by Mr. Charles Miowe and lady, where they remained untq •21st ultimo, and then took passage in the mail boat. Hope, for Key West. Mr. J. C. Morris, first officer, arrived in this city in the mail boat Hope. Captain M. lias proceeded to Havana, his health not permitting him to return to tins city. The following information was obtained from the Wreckers: On the 18th Due. two of the Wreckers hav ing ascertained the disaster proceeded in quest of the Wreck. On landing, in the night they found that the Indians had taken out about 100 bbls. Rice. Capt. Sanders, of J the Wreckers, ihen returned to his vessel, ! calculating to commence breaking out tba ! remamider of the cargo at day light. On reaching his vessel, be saw a number j of Indians approaching foin the woods and examining their tracks; two or three of them immediately br glit some fire, and applied it totee wreck, and showed signs of battle; the wreckers then left on the toilowingday. Cap!. Woodward, otTlie smack Splendid, went into the vicinity of the wreck; lie stood close in and saw a large number of Indians, some of whom fired at him—he immediately stood off. Part of the schooner’s stern was burnt off. 28th, a Wrecker pissing near Cape Florida saw a largo number of Indians and ibcir fires, A boat belonging to the Wreckers, with four men, while going on shore to shoot, when at the month ol'Cosar's creek, wore fired into, one of tho balls passing through the stern of the boat. 1 IRELAND. Plan ran mu iiijust.mii.it of the Tithe , Question. —Mr. O’Ciinncll lias put forth a ' plan for the settlement of the vexatious qucs. , lion of tithes in Ireland. The form of publica tion is as usual by letter addressed by the Pro testant clergy. The plan proposed is briefly as | follows;—Under the commutation r.ystom the tithes of Ireland average about £600,000 per I annum. The expense of the Irish constabulary I force,for the most part rendered necessary by the I disturbance and excitement consequent upon 1 church exactions, amounts to a similar »um — 5 £600,000,0f this,however,tinft haliis paid front the consolidated fund, and the other by the Irish peo ple. Mr. O'Connell proposes to deduct from the l whole amount of tithes as commuted 30 per cent. ( I & to pay the remainder £-120,000 per annum from the consolidated lurid—giving up the £300,000 at present paid to the police establishment, as an equivalent in part, and supplying the balance ! £120,000 from the Irish woods and forests, and 1 if necessary from the temporalities of the church. In this mode the church would receive £420,000 per annum, paid with as much regularity ns the salaries in tiny of the government oflii js. And the Irish people would bo relieved from an exac tion most abhorrent to their consciences, from all the inflictions entailed in attempting to con linue its assessment, and have only to pay for the preservation of the peace and order of their coun -1 try—an expense which the removal of the great ! causa of discontent and discord would speedily and considerably reduce, Mtiuux’s Si St sit. —Signor Paclina Garcia, the sister ol the lale lamented Malibra , is said to j possess, 1 1 a considerable extent, powers and ac complish.nents similar to those in which hor tab cuted sister stood unrivalled. With her mother, l Madame Garcia, wo believe, she is still resident | in the house ol M. do Deriol, at Lacken, near Brussels. When he reached Brussels, after the death of his wife, Paulina was delighting a musi cal pirly by her singing. To Iter thirteenth year —she i.s now not more than fourteen—site had the rare advantage of profiliing by all the instruc tion that her affectionate and gifted sister could impart ; audit is said that her quickness of coin* prehension speedily enabled her to apply the les. sons and directions of Vlalihran with such effect, that, hut a short lirno betoro the untimely death ol the latter, a person in another room could not j have distinguished the lories of one sister’s voice I from those of the other. Paulina, we are inform ed, possesses a very line contralio voice; and it j is not probable that in twelve or eighteen months she may make her debut in this country.
