POETRY. JOHN DORMAN'. APPEAL TO THE PUBLIC, 111 TEZ NONDIED MID Wets TEAL OF HE AOL The broken soldier, kindly bade to stay, Sat Ispdhe fire, and talk'd the night away ; Wept o'er his wounds, and tales of sorrow done, Shonlder'd his crutch, and shew'd how fields were w ums on!" Gomm. Born on the genial soil of Donegal, When good . Quaint Anai adorn'd the British Throne, In life's first bloom I heard my country's call, And made her cause and glory all my own. With VIIIIXON brave, I croas'd the stormy sea, When frost cougeal'd the earth in Turavv-cuan. Proud POZTO Basso felt a blow from me, And f. amrstaamsa's laurels, too, were mine! At Derromme I follow'd, undismly'd, Knto Gsoaas rata fitcoaa, in the field of fame _ While thundering cannon round about us play'd, And wept the Heavens in sheets of livid flame. Blythe and Ught-hearaed as a shepherd boy Attends his flocks upon the flowery plain, I stood the fiery field of FONTINOY, While crowds around me felt death's icy pain. When Catarina EDWARD reis'd his flag on high, And thousands with rebellious fury burred, Ready, at Honour's call, through earth to fly, From German fields to Britain I retum'd : Then o'er old Scotland's bills, thro' war's alarms, With Koran COMERLAND I sought the foe, Till on CULLODM'S plains our conquering arms For ever laid the rebel standard low. And when in Europe ceas'd the trump of war, • Just vengeance on our Gallic foemen huri'd, I sought, in other climes, from Bane far, The soldier's bawl ilk an haws Nouns>. 'Midst cannon-shot, and showers of musket-balls, While burning Cancer fled the torricrsky, I pass'd the breach, In Po:an:rummy's walls, Like Wu:A% resolv'd to u.nquer or to die. Cm.currA's wrongs on Britain's ions repaid, And England's realm iu HU‘DOSTAN steed, Homewards my long and weary %ray I made', for even then resign'd the well worn sword. The ROYAL Twurrit in ARERDEEN I sought, And once more join'd with my companions brave, On glorious filmomes bloody field I fought, And felt a wound, where others found a grave. And tithe near SIXTY TEARS are past and gone, As worn and woundectouid grown old and grey, I stand amidst a cold wide world alone, While junior generations pass away Then soothe " the sorrows of a poor old man, Whose trembling limbs scarce bear lain to your door, Whose days are dwindled to the shortest span, UR; wee at.t.tsr, and Ilzteets will bless your store!" Li ford, September 8, lilt. NOTES. - - Stanza I. line I.—Born in the genial sail of Donegal. --John Dorman, now residing near the Church sf Stisbane, count, of Tyrone, was born at Burgh, in the parish of Clunke, or Lord, it the county of Donegal, un the filth of August, 17ins. His great age is well known by many very old persons in this neigh b.,urhuud, who were children_when he feturacd from the army t 3 Strabane, in 1760. Stanza ii. Hue ranee, the year 17:19 Dor. man was drafted with others, from the 12th Regiment of Foot, and sent with this gallant Admiral to the, coast of Spain. He was p_rcient, attd engaged, at the taking of Porto Bello, and the bom bardment of Carthagena. Stanza iii, line I.—.Detti ageit...-In the y,!ar 1743, this man haring returned to the 12th Peeler-tit, was. with it, engaged at the rmmotable tattle of Dttliagen, in smith the French lost 60t . :0 !Iwo, and a multitude of Officer , ,...M would have lost twits the number if they hail been vigoroii . ..ly pursi.ed. Stanza iv. flee 3.--nteltey.--Oa the .nth April, 1745, John Dorri l ter wws prc3 , ,nt, and engaged at the battle of Foote. Doty, in which the En,weli bad the misfortrice to lcse 12,000 men, and the French, who claim.:d the victory, nearly an equal nuttier. Dorman was the hottt.ft vart of the battle, and escaped with'a slight wound on the ri;; . .it shoulder. • Stanza vi. line 3.—C tidedert.—Dormaii was at the battle on the 16th of April, 1746—bad occasion to Me only one sit ,c at it.— He was one of the guards over the Lards Balmeti.lo ' Kilmar nock, anti Cromarty, who were given in charge to Capt. Eyre, afterwards Governer of Galway. Ile reports, that a peivou of the name of Mackenzie, nephew of Lord lialuierino, and an of ficer In Sir John Rruce's battalion, conceiving that his uncle /ad' been harably treated on this occasion by Captain Eyrc, followed that rtfficcr to Galway, a conzitlerable tine afterwards, and re mained there for sonic months, endea , !auring, in vain, to get a g t at bins. _ _ --- Stanza vii. fine 3.—Nnfiererrj.—After the Peace of Aix-la- Chapelle, Dorman was drafted from tl.-• 1.16 regiment of the line into the 11, r v a of the East India Company, and sailed to Madras in ore of eight transports filled with troops, sent out tp reinforce the British army there. In the course of this war oc curred the cruel suffocation of 1!3 British prisoners in the black hole at Calcutta. D,rinan was at the taking of Pondicherry. The success of our arms in India at this time laid the foundation of the present amazing extent in riches and territory which the English possess in that quarter of the globe. Stanza ix. line s.—ln the year 175!, DorMan returned to England with £5O in his pocket, the amount of his share of the prito-morey he hail gained in India. lie then rejoined his fa- vourite Rigitrient, the 12th Foot, at Aberdeen, from whit h place he again went with it to Germany, and way severely woended one of his hands at the battle of Mimic's. Ile was then dis chawd, watt a pension of 47 18s. a-year, and returned to Sire bane, "'heretic has lived ever since. In the year 1771 he, with other pentiontrs, was ekamained by a Staff Surgeon, and ordered, on Lis report, to repair to a Depot in England, on pain of for feiting his pension. Dorman was then settled in the baking bu siness, sand found it so profitable that he declined removing from it, and As consequently deprived'df his pension. For many years he dilVnot feel the loss clan annuity which he had earned to dearly. BA :u the vicissitude of human affairs, and, perhaps by his own imprudence, he was at last reduced to extreme po verty, and is now, in his 110th year, begging his bread from door to door, which, in justice to the charitable inhabitaLts of Stra bane and its vicinity, be confesses he need not do, if he could coatent himself wish a weekly allow:ince, which they were wit hag to pay him—hut he naturally fond of tellingils own story, and inclined to recount hi' former exploits, to gratify, as well as to recruit his finances, he has prepared his short and simple annals for the press, and hopes they sell meet with a favourable recep ti.so from all his old friends, and from many others who have never yet heard of him. Thursday se'unight, Alexander Watlon, and John Mann, quarriers, were unfortunately killed .by the explosion of a stone, while charging it, in the intend ed graving dock at the North charging of Peterhead. Yesterday a Coroners' Inquest was held upon the body of Thomas Lloyd, a watchman of craft lying at Horsleydown, who fell into the river as he was re moving some bags of seed from one barge to another. Verdict, Accidental Death. • _ A few days ago a fishing boat bclongingto Stone- 1 haven, when under sail between the Donnypoint and the Castle of Dunnottar, was upset by a sudden gust, by which the crew, consisting of three brothers, were thrown into the deep. The boat righted again, and they had nearly got into her, when she was again upset ! They still clang to her ; but the eldest having bad a pair of large fishing boots on, by the weight of water in thein became quite exhausted, and after hanging by the boat upwards of an hoar, lost his hold, and clinging to the second brother, both went down to rise no'rnore 1 The youngest brother kept his hold, and was saved by a Fludon boat, having beets nearly an hour and three quarters in the water. OLD BAILEY SESSIONS. Yesterday William Hughes was convicted of steal ing eight brass-plated shade mounts, the property of Messrs. Spode and Copeland, Staffordshire warehouse men, Lincoln's Inn-fields. Wiliam Ingram was indicted for stealing a £1 note, the property of James Murdoch, and five fa thoms of rope, the property of the East India Com pany. The evidence having been gone through, the COMMON SERJEANT was about to sum up, when one of the Jury interrupted him, considering the case so dearly proved, as to require no comment from the Bench. The Foreman returned the verdict—Guilty. The prisoner was then taken from the bar, and two other prisoners were then placed there for trial, and the indictment was read. Mr. CLARK, the Deputy Clerk of the Arraigns, then• stated to the Common Serjeant, that all the Jury had not acquiesced in the last verdict which had been pronounced. The COMMON SERSEANT.—" Do you not all agree, 434 ntlettien, in your verdict?" • Juryman.—" Scarcely two of us, my Lord." The COMMON SennaNr'recapitulated the evidence to the Jury, accompanied with the usual comments. The Jury consulted together, and remained for some time hesitating what verdict they thould give. The COMMON SERJEANT.—" Gentlemen, perhaps you may be labouring under an error in this case. I cannot permit the verdict to be reversed, the officer having already recorded• it in due form. If you have any doubt as to the propriety of that verdict, it will most certainly operate in the prisoner's favour, as far as regards the punishment to be inflicted ; but rho verdict, having been once Worded, cannot be re versed."—The Jury were now unanimous in pro nouncing the prisoner Guilty. James Turner and James Perkins were convicted of stealing eight yard% of printed cotton, the property of Samuel Hooker. Some parsons were called to give the prisoner Tur ner a good charatter. The COAMON SERJEANT.—" It is quite clear, Tar ner, that the witnesses called to your character know very little about it. You-have been here before, and I know 'you well if your witnesses do not." Ann Adams was found guilty of stealing Bs. and two sixpences, the property of J. Thomas. Robert .4nderson was indicted for stealing a shawl from tin; person of Susannah Jenkins. It was proved in evidence, that the shawl in ques tion wa , , snatched by the prisoner from the ',boulders of the ,prosecutrix whips she was walking along the street. The prisoner followed her for a considerable distance, and lifted up the shawl two or three times, to see if it was fastened ; finding it was loose, he watched an o?portunity, and at the.corner of a street he pulled it off, and ran away: A person who had closely watched his scheme, followed him, and he was at length overtaken. When taxed with the theft, 'he said—" Oh! I only did it in joke." The prisontr had a companion, who succeeding in Making off. Jn his defeace, he repeated thatit was all a joke. He said lie had no witnesses now -in attendance, be cause they V.-ere not aware that the Court sat to-day. The Jury found the prisoner Guilty. The Court rose at twelve o'clock,-both the Illooa- DER and Cosmos Saa.m.ist being obliged to attend at Guildhall for the Election of a 'Lord Mayor rot the year ensuing. G utt-.; „ asLAis...—Yesterstay is case of the greatest possible importance to all classes of the community came on at this office. It was a prosecution by the Bank of England against .111 r. Johnson, of South Land. et'i, a coal-merchant, for a non-compliance with the regiit aloes of the 47th of the present Kin The informations contained 48 counts. The fi rst charged the defendant with delivering coals withont the meter's ticket, and the remaining counts without fur nishing the vender's ticket 'countersigned by the Meter, as required by the Act. Mr. ANDRI/W3,.for the defendant, said, he was willing to submit to a conviction upon one, two, or even all the counts, an . leave the penalties to the Magistrate. The latter served, that the Bank having determined to bring a great culprit before the public, it was for them t Judge how far they would proceed. The object of the defendant's Counrrl was obviously to screen his client from exposure. It having been determined to proceed, Mr. FaKBIII , IELD said, he attended on the part of the Bank, in support of the information against the defendant ; and he begged it to be under stood, that they were not actuated - by vindictive mo tives, nor was it on any account of their own that they had instituted the present proceedings. The only object the Bank had in view was the protection of the public, and although the defendant had incurred penalties amounting to £970, they would be satis fied, and their object as well answered by a single conviction, and a penalty of one shilling. In the 17th of the present reign it was thought recessary to pass an Act for the protection of the public against frauds practised in the coal trade. This Act required that coals should be sold only in the regular coal market, and the venders were snhject to a penalty of £lOO should they refuse to sell them to any indivi dual wishing to purchase. In order to insure legal measure, the Vender was obliged, before the coals were conveyed away, to farni,h a ticket from the Meter, certifying, that he had measured them. Next, as to the quality of the coals—for the protection of those who chose to have them of a superior quality, for there was a variation in the value of from Sg'. to 10s. per chaldron, the following regulations were laid down:—First, the Fitter" at the place where a vessel took in her cargo, was required to furnish to the Captain a certificate of the quality of the coals with which the ship was freighted. This certificate, on ' the arrival of the vessel at the place of discharging her cargo, was given to the Meter, and the latter was bound to furnish another certificate, stating into what barge or barges the cargo was discharged, and to what wharf they were conveyed. Thus the chain was carried from the very mine which produced the coals to the \Tender. In order to continue the chain even to the purchaser, the Vender was compelled to give a certificate that the coals served to the custo mer were the same in quality as those ordered. This certificate was to be countersigned by a Meter. Thus, unless improper means were resorted to, it would be impossible that the public could be unfairly served. He (Mr. Freshfield) would shew that improper means had been adopted to evade' these. regulations. He -should prove that tickets had been furnished by the defendant, in which wac the name of an individua l who never existed as a Coal Meter. It could also be proved that the tickets thus furnished were surrepti tiously obtained, and that they came without the Meter's countersign. Mr. Freshfield went on to state, I,h' at the coals served by the defendant were deficient [both in quantity and quality : when Mr. ANDREWS observed, that it was unfair to state circumstances of aggravation which could not be borne out by evi dence. The Magistrate thought Mr. Freshfield jus-, tified in stating any facts connected with the case in his opening, although he should not afterwards choose to substantiate them in evidence. Mr. Fattattriatb again disclaimed any vindictive motives on the part of the Bank towards Mr. Johnson, and said their only object was the protection of the public. If the de fendant could prove that the omissions had arisen from mistake, or even negligence, he Mr. Freshfield) would be happy to withdraw the informations, as by vtch an admission the ends of justice would be per fectly answered. Mr. Andrews having intimated that the defendant would plead guilty, Mr. Fresh field field abstained from calling witnesses, and the de fendant was fined 10s. on each information, the whole amounting to D 25. Mr. Andrews expressed his client satisfied. Mr. F:eshfield said, that a moiety being the property of the informer, he should thank the Magistrate to order half of that moiety to the Spital fields poor, and the other half to the Society for Re lief of Small Debtors, which was ordered. M ntao ito STREET.—Ekanurlirpu was claw ged with murder, in causing the death of a girl, named Dugan, between five and six ears old, by spirituous liquors. The prisoner lodged in the same house with the mother of the child, and on Monday morning, during, the absence of the mother, the for ma-, who is much addicted to drinking, took the child out with her to St. Giles's. She acknowledged that she had given her taco glassn of gin and aglass of peppermint, besides which, she rook part of two' pots of porter. On the child being brought home,' she fell into a sound sleep, which was succeeded by fits in the evening that caused her death. The con fession of the prisoner was corroborated by the land lord in St. Giles's where the first glass of gin was had: He proved that he served the gin, and he saw the prisoner give it to the child: he supposed that she only meant the girl to taste it; but she emptied the glass. The evidence of a surgeon went to prove that the child died by excessive thinking.—The Frime soner was remanded. UNION Hata..—Yesterday I. heron and .1 Owes, part of the Surrey gang, and Harriet Oliver and Harriet 11Wcot, their cher mules, were brought up for examination. A pearl necklace and a pair of ear rings, found at the lodgings of the females, were identified by Miss Hull, as having been stolen from , her father's house. Several handkerchiefs on Oliver and Wilcot were identified as having been stolen from the house of a merchant at Camberwell. Another Gentleman, whose house had lately been plundered, took one of the handkerchiefs thea stolen from the neck of Iveson. Miss Wilkinson, of Burdett -street. Walworth, identified lveson as the man who at tempted to get in at her chamber-window on the first Boor; but she jumped out of bed, and, giving an' alarm, he escaped.—They were remanded. The pickpockets of the Metropolis and its environs made a pretty good harvest on Monday afternoon, duffing Mr. Usiten s duck and cat expedition. Up. wards of fifty informations of robberies were ymter- , day laid before the Magistrate at this Office. Wonsme-smear.— Yesterday .1. Fuller was charged with killing J. Wakely. It appeared that the deceased had been a pugilistic baker, and had fought some prize battles. The prisoner is also a baler, recently come from -Norfolk. They were drinking at the White Lion, in Norton Falgate, in humour, until the deceased got in his cups, and then began to rail against Norfolk men, satins, he could beat any ID= in Norfolk, or any baker in London. They fought in consequence, and the deceased was several times knocked down, till at last he rose no more. A surgeon, who examined the body, proved that two ribs were broken, and that there had been a disease of the heart, which was rapidly healing, and could not have caused death. The persons who saw the fight considered it a fair one.—The prisoner was remanded until the result of the Coroner's Jury.— An 111g:test was held on the deceased's body last night, anti returned a verdict of Manslaughter against the prisoner and his uncle, the latter being present' during the fight. A ROBBER Sifor.—About one o'clock on Saturday morning last, two fellows entered the rack-hill of Messrs. WATHEN and Co. at Woodchester, Gloucee: tershire, and whilst taking a piece of cloth out of the rack', the guard of the premises called to them to surrender, when they ran off; on which he fired at the person carrying the cloth, and, it is supposed, wounded him, as he exclaimed-a-A. Lord barn mercy on me r and blood was found on the spot, and traced to Woodchester. They nevertheless escaped, as the guard was thrown down by a curd which they had previously made fast across the road, for the purpose of intercepting any who might follow them. Where an assemblage of talent and experience is concentrated in one line of practice, a success must attend their application, not to be found elsewhere. This has been, evinced in the Establishment of the Medical Board at Charlotte-House, Blackfriars-road, and at Woodstock-House, Woodstock -street, Oxford street, where cures are every day performed in cases which have baffled the skill of eminent professors, and excited their astonishment.--The Medical Board have particularly attended to tilase consequences of a certain disease, which entails the most distressing de bilities, and unhinges the constitution of both sexes. They also remove the effects of those symptoms aris ing from juvenile indiscretion, from irregular living , and from a long residence in warm climates—of this description they beg particularly to notice obstinate eruptions in the skin, sore throat, pains in the head and limbs, frequently mistaken for rheumatism, strictures, fistulas, scrophula, &c.—Messrs. COOPER and Co. after forty years practice in various Hospitals, are consulted at Woodstock -street, Oxford-street, daily, from eight till eight; and at the Medical Board, Charlotte-House, Great Charlotte-street, Blackfriars road, precisely from twelve until eight in the evening. —Mechanics, and persons of moderate income, have advice, gratis, if they attend at certain hours, namely, 'Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday mornings, until one o'clock, and from six to eight every evpning.
