musements of the Citizen, while ho tolerates those of the Military. Were this even done logally he would render himself obnoxious to censure, but in this case it was illegal, and therefore the more to be regretted. ⠀⠀⠀ Our correspondent winds up with some plea- santrics at least we presume they are intended for such which we do not understand, but we leave them for the benefit of those who
are curious in the solution of conundrums.
We have gone into the details of this affair at greater length than we intended, or than may be necessary; but the truth is that the charge of partiality is one of a serious nature, and we have unwittingly said more in its refutation than we intended. One thing we admit. We were wrong in asserting that these two valuable and polite functionaries, Serjeant Atkins and Con- stable Swimmer, were formerly in the 18th Royal Irish. It appear that they had not that honor, and we make the amende honorable, by apologizing to them-to the regiment-or, in short, to any body we have offended in the matter.
about II o'cloce two men came in and said the ge. neral desired that dreadful noise might be stopped or words to that effect, I am quits certain that he did not present the generals compliments. Mr. Welch then said that will do, go down and they went down, Mr. Welch then put his head out of the window and said, if another message like that was sent he would be compelled to horse whip the general.

BEFORE THE ASSISTANT MAGISTRATE" Information on Oath of Police, Sergeant Atkins, last night about 11 o'clock, I-was on duty at the central station when a messenger arrived from the Lieutenant Govenor requiring a police sergeant at his residence, I went, and was taken to the Lieut. Governor's room. He asked me if I heard that noise (referring to some loud singing in the neigh. bourhood) and why I did not stop it, I replied I had no orders to that effect. He then requested me to give his compliments to Mr, Welch, the owner of the house and request him to stop the noise if he pleased, I went to Mr. Welch's house and was taken up stairs, where he was sitting with some other men. I told him the Lieutenant Governor's request. He said that will do, go down stairs. I went out of the house as desired, nud Mr. Welch called out of the window to me and said, policeman, | H. M. S.

Isaac Swimmor, police constable sworn states, about & past 10 o'clock on the night of the 11th instant, I was told by Lord Cochrane's servant to go with Sergean Atkins to Mr. Welch's house, to stop some noise. Wo kucked at the door of Mr. by his servant, we

He went down stairs without making any reply. When we got into the street, Mr. Welch looked out of his window, and told us to give his compliments to the general, and say that if he sent us with any more such messages, he would whip us down stairs, which Sergeant Alkins immediately reported to the general. ~ Questioned do you think the other gentlemen in the room heard, what took place.

i had retired to rest, and I desired my servant to go and see where the noise proceeded from.
He reported to me, that there was singing in the "Victoria Tavern" and at Mr. Welch's house. I told him to go and get a policeman to stop the noise in the Tavern, and report to the Major Ge neral thro' my servant that the noise was in Mr. Welch's house. On the arrival of the Sergeant of police, I heard the Major General request the Ser. geant of police to give his compliments to Mr. Welch and request him to make less noise, or words to that effect. Being anxious for the return of my servant, I went to the window, I heard these words made use of, "if ever the Major General sends me such an impertinent message again" ; but I did not here the conclusion of the sentence, I must observe that after the message had been sent, the noise was increased instead of diminished,

A little after 11 o'clock, two policemen came into the room and desired, or required, by the Major Ge neral's orders, that the noise should cease, I did not hear them present the general's compliments. His tone was authoritative. Afr. Welch said that is quite enough, and requested them to leave the room I did not hear what Mr. Welch said at the window or whom he addressed.
