We have received a copy of the 'Cape Toyrn Mail,l containing an account of a diener given in the Cam s met clot Hall, CmanTovin, to Sir George Narier, Oors 1 erten General of the Colony, by a number of ]ti; • friends, on the eve of his departure for England, after., holding the qppointment fur via yes s t.s. The toast of "The three gallant brothers, wins'q names were constantly associated together in the Pea insular army—Charles; George, and William Napier,l which was received with greet cheering, called forth to reply from the Governor-General, in the course or which ho reined the following incidents of tbp bortoF of soldiers: After the battle of Centeno, my brqthec Citadel was reported to have been killed. I returned to thq field. I innsed over many bodies; I searched every hospital, but I could not find him. At lengths I heard that he was wounded, and taken prisoner. He 'weri shot through the body, he was shot through the leg, he was cut by a sabre almost from ear to car; and one of the enemy wasjust about to drive a bayonet throng h him, when a French drummer interposed and saved his life. When . Marshal Soult leatned the circnnt stance; he entered the drumtner itabp rewarded oi the . . . spot, and wrote to Napoleon, stating clip cirenmstree who, to his credit be it spoken, ordered rho drumrpe to receive the Cross of the Legion of Honor. rLou cheers.] The sequel was remarkable. Years ifteigi: that, my brother 1‘ illiam had to defend the bridge .4 the Coa with the 43d. The French come down hat: ' petsionsly, and the fight was rut iuus. I have seen the bridge, gentlemen, and it iv herd', vi ider . thae thig 'fiis ble. Again end again •die assault was renewed; and you may judge or e'llercenevs of the conflict, wher e I state that out of the hundred Men of yrisiFh my bro s ther William's company consisted, he lost suety. A fresh column of the enemy came down—a drummer,as was common at that time, at their head,stsouting ' Vies . rEmperenr!" They were driven back, and the drum mer fell among the dead. After the action, we went t i p tq ibis spot - where the drummer lay; he wore thq Cross of the Legion of Honor; that drummer proved4q be the mon that saved my btotherli life.. [Dear, bear.] . Gentlemen, these are anecdotes of the' war' witk%. show you what the feeling of soldiers are. .You kill ' never find the brave soldiercrucl to his enemy, or guns:, relsomo with his friends. And as lam oratory-telling, there is another anecdote connected with the Penlnsp : lan war, which, in referee :etc this priticii4, I may also mention. When Marshall Soult quitted f., orenna, thsi gallant Ney was leTt in command. He vent for my brother, who was still a prisoner, and plaPed him in comfortable quarters. He also appointed on aid-de pomp to, attend upon him, a Frenchman i Owl opokl , P.nglisi. well. In the meantime the erwv ~. he& got home that my brother was killed, and the family went into mourning. My poor mother, however, said shq never would basic i•rsituhrihe aye the war deports meat no rest, until laird Mulgrave, se - Vo . wris iii — ifig head cf it, sent a sloop of war to Corunna, commis, slotted to ascertain the fact. One morning, the aide' s de-comp come running in to my brother, and said aq English vessel had arrived in the hurbor. It was en; known fur what purpose she had come, but the kind .. hearted fellow went-to Ney, and begged that my hill s tber might be allowed to go.hume in her. Ney on' • swerod, "No; I connotlet him go; Mnjor Napier muss remain." The aid-dc-camp retur n ed, and Informed . my brother of the ill success of his attempt. "Well," said Pry b other "of course 1. must submi t i m y moth= er will at least hear that I am alivo.ii•. lima the ohs, de-camp went to Marshal Nay, onii ag,ain he was ro. fused, but still he persevered in plead ingfer my h r p, t h er's release. At least he said "Oh, Marshal, Major :i Napier has a mother, and if he does not return, hi; ' mother, will die!" The Marshal paused a moment., and;,. turning to him, said,—"Go, tell Major Napier he. ig ..,. free on one condition :—that if the Emperor refuses tq .. sanction this release, he will join me agniti on his pa rule." To this, my brother gladly consented, and, on waiting on the Marshal, lie was naked if therewere any of his people whom be wuithl wish to tolin Irith him. My brother said there were some forty or fifty women who had been left behind. These Ney ordered trs bp immediately released, and, turning to his aid-diseamp, - added, "See that every soldier and every woman gets. two Spanish dollars o-piece to take them home."— . [Loud Cheers.] - I was about to mention some particulors with rnggr4 to my brother as a historian. 'White I was in Paris, Marshal Soult gave me a dinnersnot oa my ac count, but as the brother of the historian—at whicite. number of Spanish.

"Your brother," said Souk, "wrote in answer, theiVls object in asking for the in formation, %tut fur the femme* of writipg on impartial ' history, and that, therefore; If APO were any inaccu- . racies, I must nut attribute them to him, but to the wat.t of sufficient information.
