..1 LO,N DUN. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 17, IKB. PRICK OF STOCKS soner in the subsequent declaration of his intention, is such as to demand example; nor must future offenders be allowed to hope that intoxication can be all , wed to be pleaded as an excuse for murder, or, indeed, for any crime. A habit of drunkenness is always an evil great enough in itself, but leading,- as it frequently does, either immediately or in its con sequences, to the commission of all crimes, let his example stand to young men as a warning, on the very onset, against excess ; but when the habit of it has gained ground, and the judgment already weakened by it, tempts the man, as in this instance, while under the influence of intoxication, to deeds of hotror, which his better judgment when sober would make him shudder at—let that man beware—let him recollect that every dram he voluntarily partakes of is a poison involving the tisk, not only of his own life, but that of others, and that he thus places him self in a state little better than that of a mad dog, against whom every hand is licensed to be raised. How, then can such a case be admitted to excuse the consequences which must naturally tesult from it? • While; however, the Lieutenant General cannot admit the slightest excuse for a prisoner, under such circum stances, he cannot but be struck by an observation made in his defence, which it is right that his regiment —that the set vice at large—should reflect upon, viz. 41 It k to be regretted, but patticulatly so by myself, that, from the negligence of the non.commissioned of ficers, a soldier is allowed to chink to excess for a nun.- her of days, without bring placed under restraint. Had 1 been confined some days previous to the 7th January, the Court would not have had the trouble to meet on my account. Many crimes may be prevented, and it would be a charity to the soldier if, instead of allowing a drunken man to roam at large, he was lodged in some secure place until perfectly sober." It is, however, with the deepest regret the Lieutenant General cannot here confine the blame to non commissioned officers alone— it is the duty of commissioned officers to be assured that such duty is done, and unfortunately, the number cf Courts Martial (no less than ninety-two)! I ! that have taken place in his Majesty's 30th Regiment, between the last two inspections, stand up in strong and dread . Jul evidence against a due execution on the part of its officers to present crime, and of failure in the necessary • aid which their Commanding Officer had a right to expect at their hands. An early and due attention to those duties might and probably would have prevented the crime of which the prisoner has been frond guilty. Let not the prisoner, however, or other drunkards of the same class, flatter • themselves on that account their climes are the less • deserving punishment, as every man is and must be answerable for his own—nor can the Lieutenant Gene ral regard them with lees horror, although, Isom the previous service of 24 years rendered to his country by the prisoner, he is induced to commute the punishment of death, to which he is justly sentenced, into that of transportatiOn beyond the seas for the term of his natural • life—hereby approving and confirming the opinion , and sentence. (Signed) G. T. WALKER, Lieut. General. Madras, Mardi 12, 1828.

JAME FASO till ARMY IM TURlctv filom 21111 11211 TO THE Sins OCTOBER. Immolately after the taking of Varna, Prince Eugene of Wlr• temhurg, at the bred of his detachment, went in pursuit of the troops of Omer Velour, who jaad retrpaked on the road to Con stantinople duribt the bight of 11th October. The precipitation ,wirh which this retteat was effected did not permit his (loyal Highness to overtake the ebemy, who abandoned on the road his ammunition waggons and baggage, and even lost a standard. and did not halt till be reached the right bank of the Kamteh , k, where, there are strong intrenchments thrown up to defend a solid draw bridge over the river. . . . . According to the arrangements that bad been made, the enemy was not to be pursued beyond the Kanstchik; Prince Eugene there fore occupied a position near the village of Prtrekoi, and ordertd AlajoraGeneral Dthhlngshausen to watch the enemy's motions with the vanguard, composed of the third brigade of the 19th divi • of foot, a company of artillery of the Don, and half a battery of Congreve rockets, and to attack the Turkish camp it he should find it possible. On the srl October Major General Dillingshaueen advanced to- wards the Kanitscbik, and discovered a pretty silting detachment of Turkish cavalry and infantry, which had passed the river, in. tending to raise intrenchments on the left batik for the defence of the draw-bridge. Scarcely had this detachment perceived our vanguard than it commenced the attack ; but thanks to the intre pidity with which the 37th Regiment of Chasseurs supported the attack, and to the well directed fire of the artillery and the rockets. the Turks soon took flight, and hastened in confusion to the thaw bridge, which they pulled up; even before all the troops had passed the river, fearing that the Ist Battalion of the Stith Chasseurs, which pursued them vigorously, should penetrate pell melt with them into the intrenchments on the other bank of the river. As it was impossible to pass:the river, Major Gen. Dillingshausen was obliged to be content with the success already obtained. Our loss was incousi derable,that of the Turks, on the contrary was great,for a great nut ter of men not having had time to pass the bridge were drowned in the river, and their masses flying in disorder on the right bank tb return to their intr enchments,wrre long exposed to out grape shot Slice that time the Turks have made no further attempt, and the left bank of the Kanitelnk is entirely clear. The objects that were proposed in making the army retain Its positions before Schumla having been accomplished by the taking of Varna, the 6th and 7th corps have received orders to take up their cantonments in Varna and the environs, to defend the approaches to it. The 3d corps is to take up a position on the road from Schumla to Silistria, to cover the siege of the latter place, which will be prosecuted with the greatest vigour. It is not obsetvrd that these niovenients of our troops have occasioned any on the side of the enemy. In the fortress of Varna there were found IG2 pieces of cannon of all sizes, and a great quantity of arsns of all sorts, ammunition and provisions.—Journal de St. Petershurgh, Nov. 1. The Journal of Odessa gives accounts from the army in Asia of the sth of October. General Paikewitsch reports that the towns of Bajazet and I)iadin have been taken by the detachment of Major-General PrinCe T,chifischiwadzew. The same .General has also taken possession of Fort Topra Kale, which. covers the Pachalik of BLjazet and commands the road to F-rzereum. Our troops are every where received with joy by the inhabitants. The TA, Gazette says, tlyt the head quarters were still at Achalzik on the 26:h ul September, on which day General Paske. witsch sat out tor Ardhagan. Private Leiters say that perfect trat•.quillity prevails in the Pachalik of Achalz;k, and the inhabitants have the greatest cot& deuce in the Russians.—Prussian Slate Gazette, Nov. 10. DEALIN.

Gen• Diebitsch has joined the corps helot, Schen:lla. Silistria, it is hoped, will soon be taken. The nature of the country Is such, that a winter campaign is not possible. Varna having been bombarded for seventy nut only the works, but the houses, are so da triaged, that it is strange it should have held out so long. and no more than the necessary garrison can find accommodation in it; so that the regiments .of the Guards will probably return over the Prods, to take up winter quarters. It is certain that the Russian army, when it first crossed the Pruth sod :he Danube, was only 6n,0c0 strong—(of cour4e, exclusive of the subsequent reinforce. mints j. The bravery of these troops is therefore the inure worthy of admiration. VIENNA, Nov. 2.'

Don Miouat. has issued anothei Decree against seditious pub lications. with which he seems to be sadly annoyed.— The following ate esti ac's LISBON, Nov. S. The Gazette contains an official notice from the Department of Ecclesiastical Affairs and Justice, respecting the seditious inflam matory papers spread by the revolutionary faction, which are com posed and printed in Oporto and Lisbon, whence tbey are commu nicated to other parts of the kingdom, under the pretext of their having been sent from England by the rebels who are in that country : his Majesty, therefore, caused orders to be given to the Judges in Lisbon and Oporto to use every means to discover the authors of the said papers, and those who distribute them, that they may receive the punishment they deserve, as associates and cr operators of the revolutionary faction, and as such, guilty of high treason in the first degree. The Lisbon Papers to the Bth inclusive, contain no news. From a much-respected trieLd and Correspontlent, we have it ceived the account which appears in our sub teque►:t columns of the Protestant Constitutional Dinner at Ramsgate on Friday last, where the same Cons:im ams.% sentiments which so nobly characteriz:d the Brunswick Club Meeting at P nenden Heath. on the 246 O. were re-iterated with increased fervour. The Paris Papers of Friday and Saturday contain no news from the seat of war, and ate almost wholly filled with discussions respecting the Administration. The re organization of the Council of State, so long called for by the Liberals, has been at last carried into effect, though much against the inclinations of the KING. By this measure, all the Members devoted to the late Mi nistry have been dismissed ; and another Royal .Ordi r►ance has been issued for the removal of 25 Prefects who, like the former, were distinguished by their Mo. narchical principles. Some other appoimments and removals in the same spirit are announced. These pa; ers quote advices from Frankfort, mentioning a projecteJ Congress to be held at Paris or Vienna, for the final arrangement of the affairs of the East, to which even the Poste will send Plenipotentiaries.

The accounts from our indigo friends in the Mesussil are upon the whole satisfactory. Notwithstanding the very little rain, the crops are generally spoken of as promising well. In some districts they are suffering from the heat and drought ; but in the prates number little doubt is entertained of their turning out a tolerably average produce from the plant. European goods generally heavy, and the markets without animation. There is not a feature in the Consol Market scarce worth ob servation to the present hour.

This Society has for its object the practice of those athletic exercises engaged in by the Six Feet, Border and Highland Clubs, &c. viz. throwing the hammer, putting the stone, quoits, running and leaping, with the additian of the highly spirited and national game of foot-ball. Its meetings are held once a week during the Summer months on Burntsfield Links, and from the rapldincrease of its numbers, and the interest taken in it by the members, it seems to bid fair to be come a principal rallying point for the youth of- Edinburgh to engage in those healthy and invigorating exercises which are now so gent-. rally and deservedly recomniended.
