His object was not that the men should be at large, but when certain out of those dreadful cells, they were in a state derogatory to the profession of arms. He hoped, how- ever, the teen yr-outd‘not think that be true there as their advo- late, as he considered that they had disgraced themselves, the regituout they belonged to. ‘and Her Majesty's uitiftirm—tliat, Instead ofshewing the unbluahing front they did. tltcy ought to hang their heads in shame. On the other hand, he was obliged to say that the‘ soldier. had. for a long time received great pro- vocation and insult from the police : there was a sergeant in court who lied been most brutally treated by the liceivren. Mr. Crpsthwsite iniimated that upon Major Gliloldlln umler- rakin to produce tlie men and sending day by day a certificate thatt e soldier‘ in hos ital was not fit to attend. the prisoners would be admitted to ‘til: the great desire of the bench was to have the case fully and fairly investigated, in that it might not be said, that the magistrates load acted with partiality to- wards the officers M the police force. It was tired agreed that the case should be adjourned till Fri- day out. Adjutant-General Barnard has arrived in Liverpool, by de- sire of the Horse Guards, to assist in the inquiry and has had an interview with the mayor.

A New F-i.viQo hlsciiiits.—'l‘he Academy of Sciences is a good deal interested by the invention of a flying machine. by Don Diego ale Salamanra. With this rnaclilnc. Don Diego's dsurlrter, Rosaura, rose in the air some time ago at Madrid, to the great astonishment of the Spaniards, who are but little so- customed to this sort of miracle. —Don Diego do Salamancu and his dauahter are about to arrive at Paris to show the effects of his marvellous invention. The machine is (cry simple: it consists of a case two feet long and one foot wide. adapted to a band of leather round the waist buckled behind. Two iron rods. fastened to the case, support a small piece of wood, on which tho feet repose. 'l‘he case containing a simple and ingenious mechanism, is worked by means of a handle. It sets in work two large witigs. ten feet long, made of very tliin oaoutchouc covered with feathers; and the wings may be so worked as to produce vertical. perpendicular, or hori-sontal dying. The number of turns given to the handle determines the height to which it is desired to go. The handle has also to be turned every quarter of a league, to regulate the distance; the operation of turning lasts’ a minute. Horizontal flying is the most tIlfIIc'lIt; the wings boat the rrirtilie tlte vars ofa boat. or rather astlie feet ofa swan when it swims. By means of this curious machine, a man can go almost as rapidly as a carrier-pigeon. The experiments which will be made at Paris will be on a small scale, and the flights of Don Diego will not extend beyond the department of the Seine; but at a later period he proposes to go to Lyons, to Bordeaux. Tou- louse, Marseilles and Tours, and to take the lines of railway. He pretends that he can travel quicker than bv rail. The price of each machine will not exceed l,200f. or men, and l,000t'. for women. If the experiment succeed Don Diego will take out a patent, and will make the sale of the machine a branch of connierce. Although greatly astonished at this new invention, several members of the Academy have pointed out the inconvenience of bringing it into general use. In point of fact, there will be no security for any one, if b the aid of stich a machine all our usag--s aird customs be overt rown, and if trialefactors can fly on the roofs of houses. afterwards get into apartments. and commit all sorts of dcpredations. It will be very curious to see policemen in France or England pursuing thieves in the air, in order to lock them up on ‘earth. It ap- pears that I852 promises all sorts of rrrarve s.—-Lo Palris. . lhttwsr ruosi At.a'.xsirnius 'ro Csrito.—We are inform- cd that the preliminaries for this in rtant undertaking have been so far settled between Nubar y, on the part offlis Highness the Pasha. and Mr. Robert Stephenson thesugiuesr. that arrangements are new in progress for oostneuoing it forthwith. . BIJIDIIIS in l§itot.situ —A recent letter to the Boston Trziveller, from Liverpool, says manufacturing is very brick in -Ltncsshire, wltrre tliev are spiiiniog Il)0t'.t 30,000 bales of cotton a week, and if trsvle continues good, they expect to spin 40,000 bales a week. They have more orders than they can supply, and money interest is low. Indeed, the spitiners are coining money, as the importers of cotton let them have it at their own prices, and they have a great demand for yartrs. Tit: I’or'ui..t-rios 0|-‘ outt Cotmiviizu.-In an article in the Edinburgh Review, against the policy of giving tip our Colon- ies; the writcr,.siuorrg other arguments, uses the following :- “ Not a single one of our Colonies is inhabited by a homo- geneous population. In none, is the British race the sole one ; in scarcely any, is it most numerous. Some of the dependencies have been taken from savage tribes; others have been cori- quorcd from other European nations. In Trinidad we have seven distinct races ; in the Cape colony at least five ; in Canada four; Mauritius four; in Ceylon at last three; in Australia and New Zealand two. The Australian colonies are the only ones which from the unimpoitsirce of the native savages, we can venture to consider as pefipled by a purely British race.—In Lower Canada, the French form five seventlrs of the popu- lation ; and taking the whole of our North American provinces together, more than one-fourth of the inhabitants are of French 0 ' in or descent. In the West India group the Whites are one in teen of the whole; the remainder are, mainly. rcccntly emancipated slaves still retaining (as the late visitation of‘ cholera brought plainly into view) much of the ignorance of their Africso origin, and many of the feelings of their servile condition. The population of the Cape, in I847, is stated at 110,000, of whom 79,000 were Whites, and of these 50,000 were Dutch ; the rest were Calfers. Hottentots and Negroes. The population of Mauritius was, in [M5 l80,000, of which uuiuber (though we have no certain record later than I827) probsbl not more than 10,000 at the outside were Whites the remain or being Coolies aul Negroes. In Ceylon Ilia ellitnale for 1047 gave 1,500,000 as the number of the native or immi- grant colored races, chiely Cingalcse. and 5.579 as the number of Whites, some of these being Portuguese. lfltl Dill!

In New Zsalaitd. the natives. a hardy. intelligent. and noble rues. amount. it is calculated. to 190,000, and the inhabitants of European descent to not more than is.osn of the latest dates.

[Editorial Correspondence of the Tri'bnnc.]

I-0-‘DON. \VcdnestIay, June 4, llidl.--Altliougli I have not yet found time foru careful and lltrultglt exiiinirtiiliou of the nrnclrincry liud process recently invented or iitloptctl in Europe for the manufac- ture ofchcrtp fabrics from Flux, I have seen enough to assure me of their value llfltd importance. I have been disappointed only with regard to machinery for I“lnx-Dressirig, wliicliaei.-iris, on It casual in- spection. to ho for less efficient than the best on our aide of the At- lantic, especially that patented of line in Mirtsouri lIlltI Kentucky. That in operntioti in the British Mucliincry department of the Ethi- bitiorr does its work friultlesrily except that it turns out the product too slowly. I roughtlly estimate that our \Vt:stern riincliirics are at least twice an e cient.

Mr. Claussen is here, and has kindly explained to me his process- es and shevved me their products. llo is no inventor of I"lts dress- ing Machinery at till, nml clriirrirt nothing in that line. Ill dressing, be sdopts,nnd uses the best machines he can find. and I think is destined to receive important aid from American inventions. What he cliiimsia,rnninly the discovery ofa cheap chemicsl solvent ofthe Flax fibre whereby its coarseness and harshness are removed. and the firmness and stillness of cotton induced in their stcnd.—-This hris been accomplished. Some of his Flax Cotton is scarcely distin- guishable front the Sea Island Staple, while to other samples be has given the character of Wool very nearly. I can imagine no reason why this Cotton should not he spun and woven as easily as any other. The staple may be rendered of any desired length, though the usurrl uvorrige is nbout two inches. It is as white as an cotton, being made so by any easy and cheap bleaching process. If . Claus- st-n's process in lieu of rotting requires but three hours for its com- pletion. It takes the Flux as it came from the fieltl, only aotncwltut dryer and with the seed beaten olfnnd renders it thoroughly fit for breaking. The plant is allowed to ripen before it is lmrvested, so that the seed is all unveil, while the lediousricu rind injury to the fibre, not to speak of the lll'l\\'Il0lc!0tll9lle.'n of the old, fashioned rotting proco-tses is entirely obt'i.tted.—Wlicrc tviiruitli is dceiriible in the fnbrics completed, the staple is made to resemble \Vool quite closely. Specimens dyed red, blue, yellow, &c., are exhibited to show how readily and satisfactorily the Flux Cotton takes an colour that may be desired. Beside these lie rolls of Fcltings, an almost every variety of plain textures fabricated wholg or ingootl part from Flax as prepnred for spinning under bl. lutIssen’s patent
