Chelsea Hospital, June 6, 1809 . Stn--Havin g in my letter of the 10th May, in ans wer to yours of. the sth, acquainted you, that in com pliance with the recommendation of the Lords of the , 1 Treasury, the Lords Commissioners of this Hospital had referred the questions stated in y our lette r , on t h e , comparative advantage to the hospital of the plan for emverciug the buildings lately oc cu p ied by Lord Yar - . borough to the purpose of an i nfirmar y , with that for - erecting an entire new building on some other part of , the ground, and the different estimates of the.expence, to the consideration of the physician, surgeon, and clerk of the works of this hospital, and also to three other professional gentlemen of eminence ; I am now directed by their Lordships to send you inclosed co. 1 pies of the reports of thoseofficers, as also of Sir Wal. ter Farquhar, physician, and Mr. Knight, inspector general of hospitals, together with the reports and es timates in original, and the several plans annexed thereto, of. Mr. George Saunders; architect: and I am to desire that in laying these papers before the Lords of the Treasury, you will be pleased to ac quaint their Lordships with the opinion of this Board, that the plans, No. 4 and 5, annexed-to Mr. Saun ders' reports, appear to them to be the best calculated, both for the convenience of the infirmary, and the ge naral appearance of the hospital ; and that the Lords Commissioners for this hospital did not originally propose a new building for an infirmary, solely on account of the additional expellee which the erection of it would necessarily occasion. I am, Sir, per Most obedient humble servant, (Signed-) Geo. Harrison, Esq. GEO. AUST. 5.,--Dr. Moseley and Mr. keate I Report, In answer to the Letter of the 10th instant. _ _ _ Chelsea Hospital, May 15, 1809. SIR—We have the honour to acknowledge the re ceipt of your letter of the 10th instant, and in obe dience to the directions therein contained, we rt—Auest that you will be pleased to inform the Lords and others, Commissioners for the affairs of Chelsea Hos pital, that we have with, the utmost .attention consi dered the Plan for converting the building lately oc cupied by Lord Yarborough, to the purpose of an in firmary for the sick pensioners ; and we have also considered of the proposition for an entirely new building, to be erected some other part of the _ground : and in comparing the advantages between the two Plans, we beg leave to state — That, although 'the buildings lately occupied by • Lord Yarborough are capable of being converted into a convenient infirmary for the sick pensioners ; and though the quantity of land, being an acre, is fully - vifficient-for the infirmary and airing ground, and free from any inconvenience from the villa, as settled to be placed ; Yet we cannot hesitate for a moment to say, that an entirely new edifice, with the modern improvement in buildings of this sort, insulated, and constructed expressly tor an infirmary for aged people, conse quently peculiai in many respects, must have consi. derahle advantages over the best infirmary that could be made out of any house, or any other buildings Whatever.' We have the honour to be, Sir, tour most obedient humble servante, (Signed) BENJAMIN MOSELEY, PhybiLian. L nATE, Surgegn to the Hospital. Geo. Oust, Esq. &e. ate. S.—Mr. Soane's Report, in answer to the letter of the 10dh. Chelsea Hospital, May 16, Isom Sin—i am honoured with the directions of the' Lora and others, Commissioners for the affairs of this Hospital, by the favour of your letter of the 10th of May, requiring an opinion, Ist, On the comparative advantage to t3-,e H os pi_ tal, of the plan for convertiog ;lie buildings lately occupied by Lord Yarborough to the purpose of an nett.lnfirmary, or of that for erectingan entire ua. building on some other part of 2dly, To state the estimate of the expense of tie new building, compared with that of altering the present buildings. And, idly, To transmit the severfll plans. In answer to the first direction, I must beg leave to refer to my report made to the Board on the 0 4th &Ca &c, On the second direction I must observe, that the plans referred to are not made out in detail, but contain only general ideas, and therefore cannot be accurately estimated. But after attentively con sidering the subject, I stated in my first report to the Board, thattheexpence of the alterations and additions, to convert the premises late Lord Yarborough's into an infirmary, together with the new buildings, which, after consulting the physician and apothecary, appear ed to be absolutely necessary, would amount to about £14,000. I have since reconsidered the subject, and have no reason to thitik the expense will be less. Respecting the third direction, I beg to state, that copies of the general plans referred to, are added to s h e re port of Aril 24th; but if the Board wish for any other, it will give me great pleasure to provide them. On the comparative considerations of the plans, I have only to say, that the first plan. was made in obe dience toa positive direction to consider of the best manner of appropriating the ?remises late Lord Yar - borough's to the purposes of an infirmary. . That the second plan t marked (C.) shews to thebest of my judgment the outlines of a convenient infirmary, and at the same time leaves land sufficient for the villa proposed: The infirmary and its appurtenances, with she use of the old materials, would cost abofit £2'),900. And that the third plan . , Marked (3.) faes not only an infirmary with its appurtenances, p laced in a much better situation, and also shews the possibility of providing for all the wants of thii great national insti tution, if now, or at any future time, Government should be pleased so to direct. I have the honour to be Sir, Your most obedient bundariervant, (Signed) JOHN SOANE, Clerk of the Works. To nee. su e t, Esq. &e. Ste. 4 —sir W.

Sin — In min pliAnce with the di rect i ons of the Lords sa d o thers, Commissioners for the Affairs of Chelsea ... I Hospital, to state our °Onion of the comparative ad: vantages of the plan for converting certain buildings (late in the possession of Lord Yarborough) to the purpose of an infirmary, with another for erecting an entire new building on some other part of the Found; we have twice examined with much attention the lands and premises in question, and now proceed to submit our thoughts on the proposals referred to us. The present state of the buildings seems generally substantial, though in.. some places partially dilapi dated. There is great capability in the house and offices, for the accommodation in view, even to the extent of 80 or 100 patients. The ground is no doubt damp, aid the land-springs lie iso high as to make it necessary for the whole to be completely drained. The brushwood should be cleared, and many of the trees cut down, to give a free circulation of air, so ablolutejynecessary..to an infirmary; and a sheltered colonnade should be added to the house, for the air and exercise of the invalids. With regal d to erecting an entire new building, it does not appear to Ns that such will be at all neces sary ; even if it should be thought of, it ought to be erected where the house now is (or near to it.) as be ing the driest part of the soil, and at the greatest dis; tance from the false and swampy ground near the river, the approach to which for many months in the. year would be very improper for the convalescents of the infirmary.—We have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient humble servant, (Signed) W.

HATTON-GA/MEX.—Yesterday Hydf, a dealer in metal, was charged with offering a quantity of Printing Tv,r. ET sale, to Mr. Smith, Printer, of St. Taes's ' which Mr. S. deposed had been stolen from him. The principal not being in custody, the cri.: soncr was admitted to bail. bumonata..—Yesterday —Matthews, a Police I Officer, belonging to 'Hatton-garden, was charged with assaulting Anson, a porter to a Mr : Jack son, dirtier, of Little Windmill-street. Anson stated, that passing near . Hatton-garden he asked the priso ner to direct him to Saffron.hill. When he got to West Smithfield he dragged him into the Blacksmith's Arms, telling him he was an officer, and wanted to search him. He told the prisoner he had no property about him but what was his master's, and that he would not be searched, unless he sheaved him his au- 1 thority, which was not done. He then told the pri soner that the place they then were in was not proper to search any one; on which he was taken into a back parlour, where he was searched, but nothing found on him except some bills of his master's, which he was carrying to the Ban ker's, when he was suffered to depart. —This statement was corroborated as far as related to the dragging him into the public house, by a person wbo was there at the time. Matthews's defence was, that police officers had a tight to search such as they thought suspicious characters ; but upon being asked by the Sitting Magistrate what proof he had of An son's being a suspicious character. ? he only asserted that he had seen him at the Maidenhead, and Turk's Head, in Dyot.street, which was positively denied by Amon. .The Sitting Alderman said, however much he-might be inclined to support officers, yet he could not conceive it proper for them to assault his Majes ty's subjects, or even search them, without having reasonable cause of suspicion against them ; and or dered Matthews to find bail for his appearance at the next Qtiarter Sessions. MANsioN-Hous-a. —Yesterday four men, named Barber, Leonard, Jennings, and Finch, were charged with a violent assault ou•Moses Potock, who stated, that he was, on the preceding evening, standing at the door of the Mitre public-house, at A idg::!e, smock ing his pipe, when Barber pus/led Leonard so vio lently against the pipe, that he drove part of it into the roof of hi; itiontb. He immediately seized Bar ber, when Finch and Jennings rushed upon him, and attempted to rescue their companion, saying they were armed, and would shoot him, if he did not let Barber zo but with the assistance of the watchmen he got them secured .—Samuel Meredith corroborated the prosecutor's statement.—A constable also spoke to their outrageous conduct. .Bat ber stated that he is a Sheriff's Officer, and had been to serve a warrant upon one Alexander, whom he expected to meet at the Mitre ; that he had taken the others with him ex pecting some resistance ; that upon not finding him there they were going to another house ; that the complainant jeered them very much, and lostowe.,i many opprobrious epidwts.--The Magistrate said, that noL7iing had been offered wl,ich could justify so violcin an assault, the man's mouth being much cut. He then discharged Leonard who, it appeared, had not taken any active part, after'being pushed against the prosecutor, and ordered the others to find bail. - At the Gloucester Assizes, John Jones, alias King, charged with robbing Mr. Aldridge on the highway, near Bristol, pleaded guilty. Upon being asked why sentence of death should-not be passed upon him, he said—" he was sensible he had committed - a-crime against society, by which his life was forfeited, but that he had been impelled by the distress of his fa mily."—Judge BAYLEY, in passing sentence, was 110 affected, that be was obliged to turn his face froin the people, and whilst repeating the usual words, ag to be taken to the place from whence you west brought— aud—.you know what I should say, and what I mean" —and wept. The other part of the sentence was scat cely articulate. . . MARRIED. Lieutenant-Colonel Fortescue, of the Louth Militia, to Miss Hobson. DIED. On the 20th of May last, of yelloti fever, after five days illness, Christopher Wallis, acting Lieutenant of his Majesty's skip Satellite, of St. Domingo. He was brother to Mrs. Camp bell, ci-devant Miss Wallis. During twelve years of service, he had been in several engagenv_nts, particularly at Trafalgar, wh ere he was a Mate in the Ajax ; and after living as much beloved, he died as much regretted, as any youth ever did in the service of a righteous King and a free country.
