MOST INIVORTANT DLSOcVEItY. The:learned President, Sir Ilumphry Davy, Bart. in a pati4r . 'o4 the Cause of the Corrosion and Decay of Cooper tr,ed for coveting the Bottom; of Ships, read before the Royal Society, has pointed out a simple, ef fectual, and econf:micat method of remedying this evil. The cause, he ascertained, was a weak chemical action, which is constan:ly exerted between the saline contents of sea water and the copper, and which, whatever may be the nature of the copper, sooner or later destroys it, which i, thus ricticed in the last Number of the Philo sophical Magazine . : "The samegeneral principle oldie manner in which che micar changes may be exa::ed, destroyed, or suspended, by electrical powers, which led him to the discovery of the decorryo%ition of the alkalies and the earths, like- • wise afforded him this new and more practical discovery. He finds that a rev small surface of tin, or other oxi dable metal, adywhere in contact with a large surface of c9pper, renders it so negatively electrical that sea water has no action upon it ; and a little mass of tin brought even in communication by a wire with a large plate of copper, entirely preserves it. By the desire of the Lords of the Admiralty, he is now bringing this discovery to actual ptactice on ships of war. It is needless to point out the mes and economical advantages of a result which must add. so much to the permanency and strength of our navy and shipping, and be so beneficial to oirr maritime and commercial interests:'—Phil. Mag.' A Patent, which had for its object the remedying of the same evil, was lately taken out by Mr. Mushet, of the Mint; and it is a curious enough fact, that the means he recommends for improving the copper em ployed in sheathing is, alloying it with a very small por tion of tin, or of zinc, or of arsenic or of antimony. Mr. Mushet only specifies the fact, but nothing of the cause. Is the effect in this case to be ascribed to the very cause ascertained by Sir Humpluy? INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, JAN. St. Jos/u Vernon Cooper was opposed by Mr. HEATH for Samuel Sewel. The insolvent, it appeared, was a working jeweller, and was discharged under the Act in March last ; in a couple of months after which he took a house of Mr. Sewel, and agreed to purchase the furni ture for 451. promising to pay for it in ready money. Not having done to, Mr. Sewel arrested him in August. He gave bail to the action; and after his surrender in discharge of his bail, in November, he sold the furni ture, and said that he had spent the money in support ing himself and in law expenses. The COURT was clearly of opinion that the petitioner's present insolvency was not caused by unavoidable mis fortune, silk!) alone could entitle him to be discharged within the period of five years from his former discharge, and tkrefore ordered his petition to be dismissed. Gene Taylor and his son, Clement Whitaker Taylor, who had been belOre theCotirt some time ago, were this day brought up in order that their case might be finally heard. The opposing creditor was a Dr. Duncan, who keeps a school at Hampstead, and with whom the elder insolvent incurred a debt to the amount of '2OO/. for the education of his sons. At the time when he was brotight up to obuin his discharge he was opposed on the ground that this debt had been incurred under fraudulent pre tences, the father having given bills in his own name and that of his son, and having represented that he was possessed of an estate tear Sevenoaks, in Bent, which estate, when sold, would be sufficient to cover the bills. It appeared, however, that the parties had no interest in this estate; that interest having long hefoie been dis posed oh Whenr the elder insolvent appeared last before the Court, he was remanded, in order to enable him to give a satisfactory account of dreintetestlte possessed in this estate. Dr. Daman again appeased in Court, and stated, as he had done before, that he mould not have given the long c :edit he had done to the insolvent were it not loa the representations made to him respecting the inzerest which George Taylor pi eteided ize had in the tA.ite.— Letters were then pi oduced, from which it appeared, that this insolvent wished to make the Doctor believe he was the owner of the estate. Mr. Cook s, on behalf oldie insobrents, said they had done everything in their power to procure the necessary deeds respecting the estate in question, but were uasuc• cessful, and wete therefore unable to comply auy further with the order of th►e Court.—Susie discussion then took place, as to whether the insolvents should be re tuandeJ, in order to give further time for Ending those documents, And Mr. lienrti, on behalf - of pr. Duncan, prayed the judgment of the Court. The elder insolvent at the same time said lie was ready to receive judgment, and made some angry animadversions on the conduct of Mr Heath, for which he was reprimanded by the Court, and threatened to be sent to Nevegate. Mr. Commissioner /IA Ititi (the Chief Commissioner' being absent) then addressed the two insolvents. The younger one, he said, had not been opposed on the day he appeased before the Court, on the supposition that the estate had beiong,ed to the father. The father bad beau a bankrupt in iBO9, when his interest in the estate was redeemed, and since 16 i 2 he had no claim to it.— It was on the representation of proceeds :lasing from this estate, which did not belniagto hint at the time, that he contracted so large a debt with Dr. Duncan; thatre presentation was false, anti he must he imprisoned for twelvemonths ter that fraud within tie walls. The son was also sentenced to he intptisoned for six months. John Aden was opposed by a creditor named Wicks, who said he was a watch and clock-maker; he said, when the insolvent contracted the debt with him, he had given a bond to another person named Brown, on which his goods were seized, and sold considerably below their value. The debt contracted whit %Vick' was for a watch ; and this watch was taken in erecutiou by Brown, who was another opposing creditor. Mr. Brown next came forward to oppose the insol vent; he had put the bond in force againit the insol vents effects; the watch purchased Isom Wicks was among the articles; it was bOlight in by the broker, and '1 is now in the possession of the witness Brown; the pro duce of the sale was net SaiCirtit to pay the debt; here the case was adjourned in consequence of defective services.—The other ca.es helot& the Court Here of no interest. The population of the Pru,4au Monarchy continues to hiciesse. By the census of 1821, it was 11,494,173 persons. In 1819 it was but 10,799,954. Thus in throe yeas, the iucreAse has been 649,219 souls. , /IL • . atiol t ' 11 ! • P . " • C ' ' i • HUNTS CONFESSION. About three years ago, when I kept the Army and Navy Coffee-house, in St. Martin's-lane, I first became acquainted with William Probert ; I had seen him be-. fOre in company with Mr. Noyes, his brother-4,4:w, at the houseof my wife's sister, Mrs. Mountain. While I was keeping the Army and Navy Coffee-house, Mr. Noyes called on me several times to solicit my custom . tor wine, and I was at last induced to give an order for Port and Sherry to the amount of tenor twelve pounds. A few days after this order was executed, Noyes brought Piobert to my house, and introduced him to me as his wife's brother. After being three months in busine*s I found the house did not ans‘ser my ex pectations, besides, I had a warrant of attorney to Richard Thomas, from whom I had taken the house, for nearly 8001. to be paid by monthly instalments. These payments not being kept up, the warrant of attor ney was put in force, and I was obliged to surrender to the Fleet Prison, where I was confined for seven months and then took the benefit of the Insolvent Act. I met Probert accidentally at the west end of the town, and he introduced me to Tetsall's, where, by his request, I sung several songs ; and at parting, be in vited me to meet him the next morning of the Cock, saying he could be of service to me. I went accord. ingly, was introduced by Probert to John and Thomas Thurtell, and stopped to dine with them. As Probert omitted to explain in what way he could serve me, I went the Bert day to the Cock, and was invited up stairs by John Thurtell, where I found Probert; and they pressed me to dine with them, which I did ; and afterwards Probert asked me to walk over the water with him, saying he wanted to speak to me on particular business, I agreed to go with him, and on our way, Probert said to nie—" Hunt, I will tell you something in confidence, but I beg of you never to divulge it, as I am the only person Thurtell has made acquainted with what I am about to tell you." [Here a plan was opened to him, in which the Thurtelk were to be the principal actors; but as it does not imply any intention od murder, and as it might materially prejudice 'l'. Thurtell on the eve of his trial, we deem it improper to disclose the particulars.] horn this time I became a frequent visitor at Thur. tell's; Probert and Noyes were almost constantly there, and no charge was made for whatever I ate or drank. There was to be a great dinner at the Cock ; and, about ten days before the dinner, John Thurtell went to Probert's cottage, on a shooting-party, for a few days, to shoot on the grounds of Major Woods; he returned the day before the dinner, and at the dinner he took the deputy chair. On the same day that J. 'Thurtell re turned from the cottage, he told me, that he had be come desperately in love with Miss Caroline Noyes, the sister of Probert's wife; but that she had promised her hand to a man named Wood; he said, however, that he did not care for that, he would continue his visits, and endeavour to supplant him ; and I understood from him, that he frequently went to the cottage, until one Saturday, when he was going down there, he met Mr. Wood and Miss Noyes coming to town in company together. This very much vexed and mortified him, and he then commenced writing letters to her, which were either unnoticed, or returned under cover ; this only served to irritate him still more, and he inveighed most bitterly against Wood; Probert also joined in the abuse of Wood, and said—" You know, John, I hate the fellow, and there is no man ()Inv acquaintance that I should like to have the girl but yourself." • Thurtell said no man in this world should ever stand between him and his happiness, if he lost his own life in the cause; and that he should go to Norwich the then next week, and get his friend Harper to lend him his air- 1 gun, to settle some of the gentlemen who had ill-used him. He said there were three or four on the list, but Wood first, because be was in the way of his happiness. The plan of shooting Mr. Wood, in Castle -street, was determined upon as follows: Wood, Probert, and Noyes, had lodgings in the same house together, at No. 35 or 36, Castle -street, Leicester-square; and it was agreed that some night, when Noyes was down at Pro bert's cottage, Probert was to go home early at night, and keep the landlady and her daughter drinking below stairs after Wood was gone to bed; and when he was supposed to be asleep, John Thurtell, disguised in a boat cloak, was to enter the house by means of Pro bert's key of the street door, proceed to Wood's room, and shoot him thiough the heart with the air-gun. He was then to place a small pistol that had been discharged in Wood's right hand, so that it might appear as if he had shot himself, and he was then to leave the house and sleep in the City. Probert was afterwards to have gone up stairs, and find Wood in this situation, and give the alarm, or the landlady was tathave found him dead the next morning. An Inquest thlitid of course be held on the body, and it was to be made appear that, in a fit of despair or despondency, he had shot himself. Pro bert said he would attend before the Inquest, and swear that Wood was much embarrassed in his circumstances,' and depressed in his spirits, and that was the reason, he had no doubt, why he had destroyed himself. John Thurtell asked a man, named Wolf, who keeps a sale shop, and who was in the habit of using his brother's house, the price of a boat cloak for the purpose; but I do not know whether he bought one or not. The night Wood's murder was to have been perpe trated, he did not sleep l at home,and some circumstances afterwards caused it ttobe put off, and the idea of shoot ing him in Castle -street, altogether abandoned, although Probert was continually urging Thurtell to commit the murder, saying there could not be a better time to rerv.e him:, as the landlady had no other lodgers in the house. Probert often said, a If you mean to do it, why don't you do it at once; you know I can keep the women ea gaged." Thurtell replied, " ll—n your great eyes, if you want it done, why don't you do it yourself; you are big enough and ugly enough, and there is the air gun at your service." On which Probert used to turn it off with a laugh, and say " You know, Jack, I want you to have the woman, and should not like Wood to get her:' The house in Manchester-buildings was taken for the express purpose of destroying Wood, and making it a warehouse for whatever goods could be obtained from tradesmen by fraudulen; bills. John Thurtell took it from a Solicitor in Bemer's-street, and gave a reference to Cou ,ins, a linen-draper at Kensington, to whom also a great quantity of Thurtell's valuable property was sent. he nest plan against Mr. Wood was, to entice him to the house in Manchester-buildings, and there destroy him; John Thurtell borrowed a pair of heavy dumb bells, bibs. each, from a Mr. Hancock, and it was set . tled that I should get him to accompany me to. and enter the house, and when he was withinside, I was to shut the door upon him, and go to Charing-cross, where Thurtell was to meet me, after dispatching him. And, in order to account for his absence, a let ter was to be sent to his lodging, to say that several writs were out against hint. _yam. POLICE lATELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. • • Ma. MACQUIVeII Rountay.—The three brothers, William, /use/ h, and lama Thomson, who are in custody on suspicion of having stolen a large quantity of jewels, &c. in the •hnuse of T. P. Ake queen, Esq. of Park-lane, were brought up from Tothill-fields litidewell, for further examination at this office yesterday, but re manded until Wednesday next upon the application of the pro,e cntor, and by the consent of their own Solicitor, without any fur ther evidence being adduced. We understand that since the last examination, the officers have discovered an embroidered shawl, and some other articles, Litt the great bulk of the property stolen still remains concealed. A Enrettox.—.l decently dressed female, named Elizabeth 'White, applied on Friday evening, in great distress, to Sir lttenann BLRNIE, stating that she had lived as cook in the house of k ffri. Bliss, a I lodging-house-keeper, in Norfolk-street; that in the beginning of the week her mistress had pressed her to go to see her luri'.‘and, ' who was at a distance in the country ; she accordingly went on Tuesday, and on her return on Friday found her daughter, a fine I girl, thirteen years of age, had disappeared. She had made dili gent inquiry of Mrs. Bliss, and of the servants, but was unable to gain any intelligence of her child, further than that she had not been. seen after seven or eight o'clock on Thursday evening, and I the complainant stated that she suspected Mrs. Bliss, and a 'Mrs. Mils who lived in the house, had conspired to give her up to a General Officer who was occupying apartments of Mrs. Bliss ; and that by their united contrivance the child was taken away and se creted. Sir It ICIIA ;to immediately granted his warrant, and on Fri day evening Mills was brought before him, and ordered to find bail. Saturday Mrs. Bliss was examined before Mr. Mnssum, when she solemnly protested her innocence, and produced her servants; and after a very full and minute investigation by the worthy M::gis trate into all the citcurnstances, and a close examination of the ser vants, there appeared no ground to suspect Mrs. Bliss of the abo minable crime imputed to her. The case, however, is still involved in great mystery, as no tidings have been heard of the child; and Ellis, an active officer, was directed by Mr. Minshull to make every possible inquiry, and, if possible, find her, so that the matter might be fully explained, and the guilt or innocence of the parties demon strated.—Ellis, one of the principal officers, and Blackman, were dispatched instantly to make inquiry, and it was in a short time as certained that the object of their search was in a house in Vilii:rs street, Strand. Blackman went to the house, where he found that his information was correct ; but the girl, learning his arrival, re treated to a room, locked herself in, and was silent to all his de mands for admittance. He at length burst open the door with his foot, and brought the unhappy child away, and in the evening she was examined before Mr. Miteshull. She is extremely tall for her age, has a fresh colour, beautiful compltxion, and remarkably fine face. She sobbed aloud upon being questioned, and it was with the utmost difficulty that a single an - *wet could be extracted from her. At length she admitted that she went away with a Gentleman, but here she again stopped, and it was not until the question had been repeated more than fifty times, that she was prevailed upon to name him. She did, however finally mention his name, and related other circumstances which it would be extremely improper to state at present. It is sulAdent to say, that upon her information a warrant was issued for a very serious offence, and the officer desired to apprehend the person charged as soon as possible. The officer had been prbviously to the Gentle man's lodgings, but he was not at home. Airs. Bliss was set at liberty, upon an undertaking to appear on a future day, and the girl was left to the care of her mother. SUPREME COURT, CALCUTTA, JUL Y 22, 23. MILITARY PUNISHMENT. NOMMEN !CHIN V. T. A. WISTON, JOON DICAY COI, AND •LISIANDER TUUMAS. Mr. TURTON stated, that the plaintiff in this case had been Mess Khansamah to the Officers at Barrackpoie, and together with a Cazi andChuprassie, had been dis missed about ten months before the outrage took place. These two people wanted to petition General Dalzell, and the plaintiff having assisted them in getting their petitions, written, they gave them to the bazar serjeant, and he to Major Weston. On receiving the petitions, Major Weston asked who had recommended them to present these petitions, and they told him the plaintiff. Upon this Major Weston sent out a party to find him, and if he were in cantonments to bring him before him, but if not, not to mind about it. He was found and imprisoned, and, after being tried by a Court-Martial, was sentenced to 70 lashes en his bare back. The Learned Counsel was not so conversant with the power of the Military, or of Magistrates in the Mofussil, but he had yet to learn that they, after having discharged a man for ten months, could again punish him if he were found within their fairy ring, or passing the limits within which they held rule, by the summary mode of a Court-Martial.—ln conclusion the Learned Counsel would remark, that 60 lashes was the utmost these de fendants had a right in any case to give, and in this case they had no right to inflict any at all.—He knew that if any of the blows were wrong, they were all wrong. Under these circumstances then, he left the cause in the hands of the Court, and only asked such damages as Gentlemen ought to pay, who were entrusted with the property of other individuals, and who neglected to make themselves acquainted with those regulations which were intended to guide them in the discharge of their important duties. Witnesses havin g; been examined for the prosecution, The ADVOCATE - 1- GENERAL said, that in all that had been advanced, he had heard of no abuse. of power in his clienst. He had only heard that it was Major Wes ton's duty to take charge of the prisoners until their trial, and that he had done so.—Major Weston had not been the prosecutor of this man ; he had only given his evidence against him, and what he said on his word, or his oath, were to be equally believed. It would be quite gratuitous for him to say, that there was no charge of malice against Major Weston; and as to the two other Gentlemen, there was not anything at all against either of theme—All that was in evidence amounted to this, that Major Weston had ordered the plaintiff into custody ; that he had been a witness against him ; that the plaintiff had been tried by a Court-Martial and punished; and that after the pro ceedings of the Court-Martial had been closed, Major Weston came to Calcutta. And all this, too, harl been done under the orders of Col. Broughton. Mr. TURToN having replied, Sir F. MACNAUGHTEN, in giving judgment, said, that there could be no doubt that there had been an unin teaticnal excess of twenty; and he would go further and say, that if there was a man who, from malice, gave him the additional twenty, he would give 1,0001.; or, if that were not enough, 10,0001. for each; and if he could trace it to malice or anything like, he would' do the same. The only question was, whether the Gen tlemen accused in the plaint are liable to be brought here for the excess of punishment which the plaintiff had endured ? His opinion was, that they were not ; but before he decided, he thought it was only right to say that there was Ito doubt that the plaintiff is liable to the jurisdiction of the Court he was brought before. The application ought not to have been brought into this Court at all ; it ought to have been against his own Peers—his own countrymen; for it was they who awarded the punishment ; and if he had been wronged, he ought to have applied against his own countrymen, and not against British subjects. There could be no doubt but that the plaintiff was amenable to the Court of Barrackpore. If so, there could be nothing improper is his being brought to trial. Under all the circumstances, Sir F. MACNAUGHTEN declared that he fait it his duty to give a verdict for the defendants, in which judgment Sir A. BULLER fully agreed. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. „as-- PONTEFRACT AIF.ETING, 18e4.

Cribb, in reply to an assertion by Reynolds, says—• " Nu man despises more than myself the vier 3e words, he tame am of opinion that those who chef most will fight the lea-t ; had Mr. Reynolds confined himself to general Invective, I shot.hl have allowed him to vent his rage and disappointment without nee. Lice ; but when he has the audacity to charge me publicly with con. duct at which my nature revolts, namely kicking a man while he wat engaged in a contest with !another. I not only feel it due tore, character as a man to deny the charge, hut CO denounce my acetts,r as a base, false, and scandalous calumniator. For the purpose of rr futing the assertion of Reynolds, I trust that, without incurring the imputation of vanity, I may be allowed to refer to the whole of my public life, and the forbearance I have always shewn wh o , personally attacked or treated with indignity; and I. feel convinced that every one who knows me will be sati,fifd of its falsehood, out my saying a word. But to those who are unacquainted with, and cannot therefore appreciate, my Flaracter, I feel it necessary za declare, in the most solemn manner, that there is not the slights,: foundation for the slanderous aspersion; and appeal to the n:any thousand eyes that were fired upon us during the fight, for the tru:h of my assertion. Reynolds also has the audacity to way that hr struck me at the time I kicked his man : this, I need hardly s4y,l, equally false. If he did strike me, I can only say, it must have been In a cowardly manner behind my hack, for he never made any up. pearance of doing it to my face. As I am, however, quite unconseiwai of having received any blow, I cannot believe that any was ghee. With respect to the other numerous falsehoods asserted by key. molds as to the conduct and result of the fight, I will merely ob. serve, that the Public will be able to form a judgment of the re. liance that ought to be placed on the statements made by the man who has so palpably and falsely slandered me.
