The point to be settled is, whether a critic can speak or write untruths concern. ing a public character untder plea of " lib erty of the press." Our opinion and the opinion of most persons is that it cannot be done and should not be allowed. Mtill, Mr. Forrest is acting fiolishly to sue such a notoriously poor, vain, soft-headed author as Willis is. The Court Martial for the trial of Major Vise has not yet adjourned. Public feel. ing is in fatvor of M-tjr WV., and accor jing to the testimnay thus far given, we thin. lie will be acuitted. Fires now occur daily.

The public demonstrations of women at he North have assumued so ninny shapes tAd have been addressed to so many ob ects that one might have supposed it in tossible for ingeneuity to devise a novelty. t is not safe to suppose anything, however, vhcre such women are concerned, and in aupport of this very dilli'Jent conclusion wo vould present to our readers an exhibition ipon a plan that certainly has the claim of >rigimdality. We learn Iron the Tribune lait "our city, (New-York) is to be visited an Tuesday next by three unformed com patties of orga.1tized and disciplined Fenalo Infantry (Lancer;) from Pennsylvanitrand New .ler-ev, known as the Fairy Light Guard, commanded as a battalion, by a masculine Colonel and Lieutenant Colonel; but the several companies will be officered throughout by ladies, including captains 'at hors.eback. The battalion will be met it. the Jer-ey City Ferry, at 10 o'clock, by a coinpany of our National Guards, and escorted to the Park, where our fair visit Irs will give evidence of their proficiency in military evolutions and exercises, repair. ing thence at an crly hour to the Astor Hlouse for dinner, visiting the American Musetmn in the afternoon, and spending thle eve ning at the Cr+"stal Palace, whence they will take up their botneward marce.'' The E.r-press pathetically inquires what all the children of these women are to do at home, wlilst their mothers are parading, ,vlich is rather an unageanerous insinuation in the face of the assurance which the 'I'riburne gives " that the 'Fairy Light Guard' is composed of some of the best educated and most extimable young ladies of Paterson and Ehizabethtown, N. J., and of IIurrisburg, Pa.-a l between fourteen and eighteen years of age-a daughter of a late Governor of New Jersey being among them." The parade of these wo msen is supposed to be totally unconnected withi Barnumi's effort to revive the Crystal 'alace. We have tmnt with nothing to match this in modern tines, but as the nearest ap proach to it in point of moral dignity, we give the march of Abyssinian Monkeys, which will be found in another column. Charleston Standard. Arnms, Sr.AVES TO EscAtPE.-Washburn Ashby, a white moan, was yesterday, ac cordig to appointment of the previous day, amit::ed before the Mayor, on a charge of aiding slaves, to escape from this city to the North. it is believed lie has been concerned in the escape of sever al who hive recently disappeared; but the evidence at present does not seem to be conclusive, or point to more than one case.
