The Court doled on Thurfday afternoon, when Jofeph Oxford and Thomas Williamfon were forenced to be executed, on board fuch (hips of war as the Lords of the Admiralty are pleafed to order, and the other three were acquitted.

The idea that the contraflors for Government would no longer come into the market, made the buyers thy, and the prices fenfibly declined.

A late letter from Calcutta Pays, the Oil which is found in the bowels of the earth, in the Burrnah dominions, is of a very peculiar quality. To ob tain it, they fink wells to the depth of one hundred cubits. The Oil is drawn pure from the wells in the liquid Rate as tiled, without variation ; it is of a dingy green, and odorous. One family, per haps, will pofefs four or five wells; the coil of finking a new well, is about 2500 ficca rupees, and the annual average net -tow& is about 1250 ficca rupees. It is remarkable, that no water ever percolates through the earth in the wells, as has been fuppofed. When a well grows dry, they deepen it, and none are abandoned for barrennefs. The Oil is excellent in preferving wood from de cay, and is likewife celebrated for its medicinal properties. The grofs amount of all the wells, per annum, is ellimated at 289,737 ficca rupees.

On Thurfday laft, in coufequence of an elec tioneering quarrel, James MOONS O'Domst., and DENIS BINGHAM, Efqrs. met In the neighbour hood of Ballina, attended on the part of Mn O'Dovsx, by Colonel CHARLES L. FITZGERALD ; and on that of Mr. BINOHAM, by Colonel Jack- SON.—On the firft difcharge, Mr. BING Hetes lime took effeet, palling through Mr. o'.llom Les heart, and killing him on the fpot. Had a profligate chara4er thus died, fociett would benefit even by the breach of its laws, but in the death of the worthy and lamented James Mooss O'DoWEL, his King has loft a moll loyal fubjed, and his country a good man and a zealous friend. On the ground he wrote the following letter :—• ..“ T► the INDEPENDENT ELECTORS of the Count/ " of MAYO. " Wins, Sept. 24, 4.21. " Should f fall in the eooteit with Mr. Emcee's, it la la fupport of your caufe, of the independence of the county of Mayo. Had I lived, It was my determination to have dune all in my power to have prevented you from being fives, 104 the comity from being made& borough.

Meows arrived at Athlone, and after reviewing the Light Brigade on Thurfday and Friday, ha vifited the general hofpitals, attended by Dolor Cowin and Staff-Surgeon KENJI IWO. Styr. 29.—This morning James and jefip6 White, two foldiers of the North Cork militia, lately convidled before a Court Martial,of a confpiracy to deliver up to the rebels a poll in the county Wick low, were conveyed under a ftrong efcort of horfe to Wicklow, the head quarters of the regiment, there to be shot purfuant to fentence, Three perfons were on Sunday brought into town by a military guard, who were apprehended in one of the Grand Canal boats, near the ninth lock, charged with knowingly uttering and de• frauding feveral perfons with forged bank notes. CH it astir Hos PITAL.—A very melancholy event took place here yefterday morning. Two of the Petitioners, called" Captains," had entertained an animofity towards each other ; bnt it was prevent ed from breaking out into violence by the influence of a fuperior officer, who conßantly laboured to reconcile them. Death unforoinately removed that reflraint ; and the enmity, of which we know not the caufe, at length produced the fatal cleft fo long dreaded. Between fix and (even o'clock in the morning, one of them came to the chamber of the other, as he was in the aft of riling from his b:d. He brought with him a - cafe of pitiols, which he bought the day before, and, prefenting one of them to his adverfary, infilled upon his fighting him, which he declined, and !hut his door, a half gtafs one. The affitilant did not, however,go away; but, turning round, he fired through the glafs v in. dow in the door, and (hot the unfortunate man within right through his heart. The report of the pißol excited an immediate alarm, and attraCted all the people of the place to the foot, where they found the two old Captains, one dead on the floor, and the other at the door, from which he never made any attempt to (hr. Being quellioned as to the melancholy event, we underhand he gave the above account of it, raid it was he who fired the (hot, and did not betray any coniCioufnefs of his having done a criminal or improper aft. They ' were both nearly 8o years of age. The following account of a very fingular bridge at Sirinagur, in the EaR Indiei, is related by a Gentleman who croffed it a few months ago. This bridge, or contrivance, is called a Jrolah : two fcaffolds are eretfted, in the form of a gallows, one on each fide of the stream ; over there are firetched very thick ropes, to form on each hand a support for the reit of the bridge ; to thefe, by means of pendant ropes, a ladder is fixed hot i•ontally, and over this tottering frame the travellers pats. The main ropes are to flack, that the middle of the bridge is within a foot of the wat:r. Its breadth I will barely admit of two persons abreafl. The cur rent runs beneath with great rapidity, and it would be inevitable dear-a - lion even to the moll expert 1, fwimmer to fall from this bridge into the Ri ver , for the breadth of this rapid area ni is about eighty yards, and its depth from ten to twenty feet, The city of Glouceßer is at prcfcnt under an alarm much greater than if the French army was at its gates. Government has lent down fifteen waggons full of irunpowd-r, with tome artillery, &c. to form a depot, Glouceher being an import ant point in cafe of invaflon ; but no place being prepared to receive the gunpowder, nor any Reps taken towards the depot, the Parton of St. Mary's has charitably lodged it in the chorch-yard till fur ther orders : but the inhabitants remain in a hate of the utmoft alarm, as the blowing up of the powder, they apprehend, might dedroy dr. a hole town. Several perfons have :actually left the place, and a-rt a foul went to hear the Parton on San day—the people cannot fleep in their beds for fear. The new grand fpeCtacle of King Cafar, or ale Negro Slave, at the Royal Circus, St. Geor Fields, may certainly vie with any piece that appeared at either of the Summer Th:atre‘, the Prong interell of its Rory, and its s at lott. meters throughout; the music by that admii COMPOCCT Mr. W. Walt, poifoffes the g' beauty, and is finely adapted, as is also the nem which is capitally defigned and erecut and finer dancing has perhaps never been netted than that difplayed by Mils A Dams Miff Divvy.
