mnrj, d?rcivctl in the information which

has lor some days heen in my possession, ihe Court Jlartial was of opinion that young Lane, name ought to te struck from the rolls of the Arrr.y. But the President, it seems, has assumed the 're sponrihiliiy,'' nnd ordered Lane to duly. He nlen approve d of the assaults of Ilubton and Heard upon opposition memheis cf Centres, on the ground that they were j'lslife.'i by provocation, although he could not, f y the same rule, justify Lieute-;.tnt Randolph's) assiu't tipon himself. As the paragraph from the Gazette now reads, it would lend to the conviction that the Court Martial recommended Lieutenant Lane to he 'ordered to duty.' I ask the Gliilit. was tiiis ii:e fact ? The writer of this Know a that the disposition of 'he case was left with the President. Let the 'reeponsi! ility' then fall where it Iclorgs." The foregoing appears as a coniniurii-r-ition in the Raltimore Patriot of March -G. We have understood fr'-m other s'tirres that tlie decision of the Court Martial and the action rf the Presideot were very nearly as here represented. Ci'n. Caz. Mr. Tipton, of the U. S.

The French Corvette, Ceres, Captain De Saint, arrived at this port yesterday, from p. re jit, w beice she sailed on the 24 ' li of January, four days after Ihe I.l'Assi's. There was much speculation jesterd iy afternoon as to (he object of the arrival of another French vessel cf war, nod various conjectures yvere advanced, all of which were erroneou". It was well undertood here, immediately alter the arrival cf the D'Assas, that the would soon be followed hy anoiher vessel. Thi object of her vicii is simply to await the orders of the French Legnion in this country. If the deliberations of Congress had resulted in any hostile measures towards Fiance, the Ceres would have been imniodialf ly despatched to (he Fiench possessions in the West Indies; hut, as they were fortunately all of a pacific character, we presume she will bu sent hoiiie ia a few days.
