Qaeenstowu on the 18th, ’ arrived at 7 o’clock, pAtt., and was inter- caep'ted by the; news beat of the ASsociated ' Press, and the following summary of her news Obtained. GREAT Bli‘l'l‘AlN. _ On the 16th, in the Home of Commoiisr Mr. Layard said the. Government had. reâ€" ceived from Lord Lyons a copy of the re- port of a committee of the House of Re- presentatives of the United States, on the Operations of the Reciprocity Treaty, and had no objection to lay it on the table. _ Lord Palmerston also stated that the 'GOYCI‘IIIHL‘HI were also prepared to lay on the table all the Information it possessed respecting the OCi'UpaliOIt of Mexico and China, and the intentions of the French Government on the subject; and said that what was being done by the British naval and military authorities met tile ap- probation of their Government. He be- lieved that the steps now being taken --‘would'tend to a settlement of affairs at Shanghae. ' The Times’ editorial on the War says, the adriintages gained in the West by the Federals have been such as it is impossible to overrate, and are in singular contrast ’ to the slow progress in Virginia. It also expatiates on the importance of the cap- ture of New Orleans, and says, that the North has a right to presume that the hour of final success is approaching, and that the secessionists, exhausted by long and laborious campaigns, dispirited by re- verses, and separated front each other by advances of various Federal cirpeditioiis. will be glad to come to arrangements to rc-cnter the Union on easy and honorable terms, which the North would be glad to offer. This feeling sustains the Federals in all the difficulties oftheir posrtion.- They are accumulating debt for which no finances are providing, though their armies are threatened with a summer campaign, should the Confederates hold out; and though no one pretends to explain how the ’vepubl can Government is to be worked, with eight millions of persons brought into the Union by force~~to see the means for the payment. of the interest of the debt incurred for their subjugation. Yet the elation caused by the recent mi» litary success is so extreme at the North. that no Federal doubts, full and final vic- tory to be within the grasp of the Gorerii~ ment. As regards the South. the Times- _ says they are apparently as determined as ever, but from the manner in which thi- military leaders have allowed themselves to be worsted on the Mississippi, the con fideiice of their own pe0ple and foreigners must be shaken in the ultimate success of their cause.

Times says: The intelligence received late last evening to the effect that General flanks had fallen back from Strashurgli to Winchester was understood to indicate rather a precaution- ary measure on his part, than the result 0t any immediate movement of the eiii-iiiy.â€"â€"- The tidings of this morning announcmg the occupation of Winchester by Jackson and the withdrawal of Banks, after an engagement of six hours, in the directiou of itlartiiisbui'g and Harper’s Ferry placed matters in‘a new light and aroused ‘ethuS apprehensions not only for the safety of his little command. but for the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, the city of Baltimore. and eren the Capital of the. Federal States. Later in the. day the reports of the riot- ing [in Baltimore, on the rout of the entire force of flanks, by the quick march and overwhelming numbers of Jackson,greatly intensified the excuement. The Seces sionist syinpathisers. too greatly elated to conceal their joy, Openly expresSed their belief that the hosts of Jeff. Davis will overrun Maryland and the district within 24- hours. The reports of the rioting in Baltimore is doubtless greatly exaggerated. and have given the enemies of the Union here increased boldness this evening. A: no time since the disaster ot Bull Run have they been so rampant and deft ant. Among loyalists the feelin is. one of regret that by saint-body’s blunder ow course in' the valley of the. Shenandoah shovild have. been so seriou~ly set back. and the enemy given such a decided ad- vantage. V‘HttADQUARTEES. : - MOUNTAIN DEPA-RI‘MENT May’fZS‘.

Few im- agined that. the [supporters of the government :had'so materially diâ€" minished within the short space of a few weeks. At. the opening of the session they commanded a fair working majority _ot the represent. atives troin both sections of the province. The " double majority: tlico.y of the "Opposition appeared for a time to be realized and seem. ed likely, by depriving their oppon. cuts of their most formidable wea- pon, to render the occupants of the treasury benches, still more secure in their seats. They had already introduced several important and salutary measures. The Jury bill of the Hon; Sidney Smith was pro- grcssing favourably ; a Bankrupt law was admitted to be greatly needed ; and above all, in the pre- sent irienucing. attitude of the Arri- erican Republic, the organization of an efficient Midiia force was-re.- garded as-a 'uecr'ssary evil which could not lunch longer be. delayed. But in the midst ol all this appar- ent prosperity, we are. suddenly surprised. by the intellgence of a ministerial crisis,~â€"l0liowed by a resignation. _'l-‘hc opening of the budget had dOubtiess created con- siderable uneasiness. The regular annual deficitin the finances of the Provincc, during the past few years, has enabled the opposition to point to a» rapidly and steadily increasing public debt, and to create a strong reeling against any measure likelv to riiake fresh demands on the pro- vmeial eschequer. The assurances given by the finance minister, to the effect that the. increased expendi- ture was chiefly owing to causes of a temporary nature, were insulfvcr- em to restore confidence. It was shown that general comiricrcial’dev pression of late years united with the commercial deraingeiiient caus- ed by the present American war, were. the principle causes of our present difficulties. All was of no avail, and the. coalition was obliged to bow to the t'orCe ol crr’ciiiirslances. They have-fallen, out. they have not fallen inglorousiy. No government cond ration tbiy expect to enjoy a much longer leriri"‘iil"‘c.iiistenc'e than that which has been allotted to the z-iilininistration of Messrs. Cartier and McDonald. find these gentle- iiien been 'perniiitled to ‘ make (:lloiCe ol‘aquestion on which above all others, to'stand ilr fall, it would scarcely have been possible to se lect onewhetti-r calculated to secure to lasting approval of a loyal peo. ple', than a, proposal to provide for the national defences. But their defeat on the. Mili.ia Bill, is, we. think, extremely unfortunate at the present time, it has a tendency to placz: us in a false position before the. world. Not because a particu- l-ir party hasheen defeated, but be- cause that ,(lefedt has been accom- plished by a vote, liker to be con striied to our disadvantage. Six months ago the probability of war aroused tliri‘iiiglioiit the entire pru- vince an united and enthusiastic exhibition 9 of loyalty. Tens of tlii'itisands showed tliciiiseiws ready and willingr to defend their homes and firesides against, foreign linvasion, and to preserve, inviolate our connection with the mother country. This patriotic enthusiasm of our people elicited the eulogies of British slalt‘Sttttfn ; and like'u ise served to undeceive our American neighbors, as to our republican leanings. But in the. space. of a few months, a bill for the purpose of making provision for organizing and training an, efficient militia force is refused a second readlng No amendments are proposed, no modifications suggested; .it is scarce‘y admitted, indeed, that a military force is atllie present time necessary or desirable. How are we to eitplain the strange inconsis- tency. Can it be Dossible that the majority who voted against the mi- litia hill really represent the. feelings oftlieir constituents? If so, how are" we. to acetiuiit-lor the sudden change? “’e do. not. pretend that M r.‘.McDonal‘d’s bill ‘was faultless.

"l‘hese were‘ni-cr‘e lbukes gStltth sentiments, however, are quite. {consistent with their recent Vote; iand thlua few will very. naturally ciincludc that appeals to Washing- ton, and suggestions about rebel- lion, followed up by an unqualified opposition to any proposal for do fence against foreign invasion, in- dicate something more than a mere acmdental coincidence. We are promised a militia law it is true; but when! A year hence it will probably be brought forward ; and another year must elapse before it can he redur'ed to i=ractice. A ini- litia force will probably be organ- ized when the dangers which ren- dered it necessary will either have passed away. or become too immi- nent to be avoided. Possibly the idesire to retain office. may induce them to exhibit. a greater deg ree of "patriotism than they haVe ever be- fore been know-into possess. Nous verrons.

A holiday without somepublic amusement is always a dull affair and we cannot see that the provision of some innocent recreation for the released multio tude was in any degree inconsistent with the respect and sympathy which 'all of . Her Majesty’s subjects are anxious to ex" 'tendi'to ller.

By 10 o'clock over a thousand spectators had collected iawtbe field leased by the cricket'club'andfhe' sports of the day commenced with a game of .. foetaba'll between chosen xii-tribes? frh'm the townships of King and VVhitcbtirch respectively._ The contest washiainthined with all the zest which youth, strength- and good hinn ir could contribute, and Has very entertaining to the assombled multi- tude.

These. sports in time gave place to the greatest attraction of all; the shunt} battle intend- ed to represent the taking of the Redah. About sixty of the nil-enrolled volunteers made their appearance in arms and uniform, and ministering the imperfect and irregular training which they have received made a. very good appearance. It would be uno reasonable to expect any very elaborate field movements from each a force, and the spectators were prepared to make all due allowance for some irregularitiesin facing,mtrching.r and forming company with others of the almost. numberless minutiae which constitute the perfect soldier. At the same time all could not fail to admire the enterprising spirit which had led ‘thebz young men to do all that lay within their power, to render themselves lit to servejn the defence of our country.

To test the matter; Mr. Towle has libclledl the. ship, and a jury is to determine, after a fai‘r t'riril', whether he did or~did not ini- vent the steering apparatus used, and, if he did, what his services were worth. A: remarkable case of impiety occurred the. other day in a village in the West of England. A man of large fortune died". and directed in his will that his horse should be caparisoned and led to his grave, and there shot and buried With him, that he might be ready to ‘mount at the resdr-v rectson; and start to advantage.’ To the disgrace of all concerned this was actually performedâ€"(70m: Journal.
