There is a mixture of something that is ludicrous, with -much that is very deeply painful, in the condition to which our troops have been reduced. An eye witness has graphi- cally deseribed their appearance. ‘Take the Guards, for instance,” says he; “on parade they look a collection of | gaunt dirty scare-crows, only by their consummate discipline, which a Guardsman never loses, which no amount of suffering ever induces him to break through, can you recognize the remains of tive most perfect corps of infantry in the world.” Continuing his deseription of the groups continually encoun- tered in the English camp, the same writer says—* The |

In the absence of any very precise information from Sebas- | topol itself, as to the intended movements of the Allied Ge- nrals, we receive with pleasure the following intelligence from a well-informed and trusty correspondent at Paris. “ [have been favoured,” says this gentleman, ‘ with a piece of infor- mation of a highly satisfactory character regarding the actual position of things at the seat of war.. An officer of rank, ‘who left the Crimea on the 22d, in consequence of il] health, thas personally reported, on high authority combined with his own observation, that the capture of Sebastopol can be effect- ed the very moment that General Canrobert and Lord Rag- Jan agree to give the word. The French and British com- manders, in fact,feel no apprehension whatever on the subject. Why they have not already ordered the assault is on account of the very excellence of the positions secured by the Allies, | which they are in no hurry to exchange; for should they | make a promature capture of Sebastopol, they might find that from being a besieging they had become a besieged army, and therefore have they delayed operations until sufficiently reinforced, and with everything combined, and in order to make success complete. Nevertheless, adds the same distin guished military officer, a term ef delay had already been settled in the mind of General Canrobert, so that many days, in all probability, might not elapse before very important tidings would arrive from Sebastopol.”

This opinion is confirmed by an article published in the Constitutionnel, in which it is confidently asserted that * the Allies could, if they pleased, take Sebastopol at the present moment, but they prefer waiting until they can, with the aid of Omar Pacha’s division, make a diversion from Eupatoria by an attack upon the Russianarmy. A decisive movement = this natare may be looked for in the course of a few

Omar Pacha has already landed with a large force at | Eupatoria ; and the Russian General Liprandi has marched to the northward to meet him. |

TO THE EDITOR OF THE EXAMIEER.

Sir—I observe in your paper of the 5th instant, a letter taken from the special correspondent of the Leader, at Portland, on the “* Maine Law” in Maine, which letter, I have no hesitation in saying, contains the most’ unfounded statements that were ever penned to paper; and as I have heard you state your readiness at all times to open the columus of your paper for both sides of any question, I therefure request you will insert an answer to that letter, which is given by the editor of the Temperance Telegraph, in his paper of the 25th January.

And remain, your obedient servant, A SON OF TEMPERANCE,

| “The Morning Freeman of tbe 16th instant contained an

extract from an article written by a special correspondent of | yeai do,

the Toronto Leader, and copied into the State of Maine, in which the writer, who affects to have felt a strong desire to see the affirmation of the success of the Maine Law cor- roborated by a corresponding condition of criminal satisties, furnishes a table of crimies and offences in the City of Portland and County of Cumberland (Maine) from the year 1850 to the year 1854 inclusive, showing a larger number of offences

fin 189f—the year the law went into operation—than had

occurred in 1850—the year previous, and a steady increase of crime from the year 1851 up to the 21st December last: « We strongly suspect that there is some subtlety in con- necting the County of Cumberland with the City of Portland in making up this table—supposing even the statements them- selves to be literally true—for all the accounts that have come under our notice hitherto, of the condition of Portland, as respects it as having uadergone very great improvement ,since the period whea.the Maine Law went into operation.— It may be that the law bas wot been so rigidly euforced in

| the County of Cumberland as in the City or Portland or it may that the correspondent of the Leader swells his figures |

in both County and City by the number of persons charged with selling liquor contrary to law.

“In the statisties under notice, the number of persons ebarged with crimes and offences in 1851 is set down at 523, and in 1950 at 492. Now how does this correspond with the Mayor of Portland’s official report, who observes that the number of commitments to the Gaol of Portland for erime

law, was 192, for the corresponding mouths subsequent to

during the same months under the previous (license) Jaw.” ‘Men’, he says, “ that had wasted the fruits of their labor at the grogshop, now provide for their families and need not the kand of public charity.’ :

“We could furnish columns of facts in vindication of the Maine Law, were we so disposed, but we will content our- selves with reminding the reader of the refutation of John Neal’s and the Rey. Mr. O’Donnell’s statements of the tenor of those of the Leader’s correspondent, by some five hundred of the most respectable citizens of Portland under date of October 1853, and by the letter of the Rev. Bishop Burges dated August 22, of same year.

‘These documents are both to be found in ‘ An Appeal to the Public,’ by the Executive Committee, of the American Temperance Union, which may be obtained at this oitice by any one who is desirous of obtaining information on this most momentous subject.”

And 4th, Are we not, in our intercourse with society, involuntarily guided by this art ?

He then elucidated each question in a very elaborate manner, and interspersed his lecture with some appropriate anecdotes. James D, Haszard, Esquire, the Vice Patron, presided, and invited a discussion, which was sustained with much animation by different speakers.
