the total was 272,300 doll" making a deficiency of 146,700 dollars. The bags and bases appeared to be in the same state as when the examination took place in March ; the fort was regularly guarded every day, and some of the artillery were stationed there; no person could have access to the Bomb-proof without being seen by some person in the fort, and no large quantity of coin could have been abstracted at one time witbou' . observation; 146,700 41ollars could not, I think, have been taken away without making a difference in the v. pearance of the bags. Mr. Joseph Littledate—l was at Bencoolen, in the service of the East India Company as soh-treasurer in 1812. 1 received from my predecessor charge of the money, which was kept in bags and strong boxes. 1 counted the contents of most of them. I was succeeded by Mr. Siddons, to whom I accounted for the money. The amount was 65,172 dollars, S succoos, and 76 cash. This was in August, 1812. Mr. GURNEY now put in. with a view to a nnnsuit, the action being in assumpsit, an indenture, dated the 28th February, 1816, showing the defendant to have been a covenanted servant of the East India Company. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said, he should show that no counterpart of the indenture had been executed by the• defendant, who at the time in question was acting as Secretary to the Company at Bencoolen. The Keeper of Indentures executed between the East India Company and their servants proved that he had amide search for the counterpart in question, and could nut find it. The usual course was to send the Com pany's part of the indenture to the resident abroad, to be delivered over to the person appointed,in exchange for the counterpart which was executed by him, which sa as sent to England to be deposited.in witness's office. A letter, dated the lit of March, 1816, was put in, showing that the defendant was at that time the acting secretary at B4ncoolen. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL submitted that this evi dence was sufficient to rebut the presumption that a counterpart of the deed had been executed. Lord TENTEADIN thought not. The plaintiffs were then nonsuited. LEVI •. BASET'. This was an action on a policy of insnrance, which the defendant had subscribed for 1001. The insurance was effected on a schooner called the Industry, on a voyage from St. Vincent's to. Liverpool. She 'Ailed on the 15th of May, 1823, and, as alleged on the part of the plaintiff, was destroyed by bad weather. The de fend Ant, however, contended that she was not sea-wor• thy at the time she 'sailed ; and that was the principal point to which the evidence was directed. It was, to a certain extent; conflicting; but the defendant's evidence preponderated, and, without a minute's deliberation, the Jury found for the defendant. I' LONDON SESSIONS. These Sessions oommenced yesterday morning before the LORD MAYOR, the RICORDZR. Mr. Sheriff BOOTH, and sevetal of the Aldermen. A NU ULT.

Two. young men, named Dixon and Heroes. were Indicted for assaulting two constables in the discharge of their duty, on the 6th August last', in the pariah of St. Bartholomew the Grey, Smithfield. . Ttappeared from the evidence of the prosecutors that the prisoners were insisting on their right to pass the gates of the parish,which,agreeably with ancient usage, are closed at halfpast eleven o'clock every night, and only the inhabitants are permitted to pass after that hour. The prosecutors went to the assistance of the watchmen, when they were violently assaulted.. The prisoners, in their defence, stated that {hey had been to sup with a resident of the parish, and thinking' from the lateness of the hour, one o'clock, that they Would be unable to gain admission to their respective residences, they hoped to get a lodging from their friend, arid that they were very much intoxicated. • ' A female proved that they supped with a resident if the parish, but left at ten o'clock, and were s , .bee.

GLASGOW, Ocir. 20.—Since the depression of 'the Canton crape shawls. which we noticed a tea months back, the trade of Paisley' has been in eery languid state; and in the light silk line particularly; the Weavers have had a good deal of idleness' lately. Some slight indications - of surevival in the Canton crapes are manifested by some houses; but as Yet there is no indi cation of a revival that will be felt generally for some time. In the trimming and heavy-shawl depaitment there has been little. variation for some time past; the prices paid for weaving are about as low as Alley Were during the most depressed state of trade. The carpet trade, which is carried on to a very' great extent if. Bannockburn and Stirling, is at present unusually brisk, and with the manufacture of tartans, gives employment to upwards ofd thousand weavers. Tuesday se'emight, a dreadful accident took place in the engine -house of Mr. Ewing's Cotton mill, Mile end, Glasgow. A man, named - Alex. ToWns, a black smith, who is employed in thkwork, went into the en gine-house alone for some purpose, when it it supposed he came in contact with the crank, and was driven over below the spokes of the fly wheel, with which* was turned round. and beet illy torn in pieces. - A dreadful murder was committed on Friday last, near Pontefract, in Yorkshire.
