In respect of the great advance of 1817 and 1824, it may be observed, the sudden reduc tion in the rate of interest of money operated at both periods as the principal cause. DECCAN PRIZE-MONEY. Owing to the exclusion of Reporters from the discus sions which, in the course of last week, took place before the Lords Commissioners of the Treasury, upon this highly important subject, the Public have been made but •ery imperfectly acquainted with the points in dispute between the several parties interested in the distribution of this prize money ; and, therefore, the following outline of the case may be acceptable to many of our Readers: It will be recollected that, in consequence of aggres sions by the Pindarees and some of the Mahratta States and Powers, hostilities were, in the years 1817 and 1818, begun and carried on against them by his Majesty's forces, in conjunction with those of the East India Company ; that, in the course of the war, capture had been made of arms, military stores, provisions, met• chandise, and treasure, all which belonged, of right, to the Crown, in ♦irtue of the toyal prerogative, to be bestowed in such manner as to his Majesty should seem meet and just; and that various parues had appeared before the Treasury Board, claiming, from his Majesty's bounty, to share in the distribution oldie booty. These parties were, • The Directors of the East Indio-Company, claiming one.half of the value for the proper use of the Company, and the other half for the use of the Commanders; dicers; and men, belonging to the army employed in the said war. 2. The Marquis of Hastings, C King's forces in India. 3. The General and other Olicers, and the troops, belonging to the Presidency of Bengal, and composing the Grand Army. 4. Lieut.. General Sir Thomas Hislop Bart. late Commander in-Chief of the Army of Fort Si. George, in the East Indies. and Commander-in-Chief of the Deccan, acting for himself in the latter capacity. 5. The Deccan Army; and, 6. Major-General Sir William Grant Keir, and certain forces under his command. of all the After long discussions upon their several claims be fore the Lords of the Treasury, their Lordships, by a minute dated the sth of February, 1823, declared it as their opinion, " That the most just and equitable prin ciple of distribution will be, to adhere, as nearly as the circumstances of the case may admit, to that of actual capture ;" that, with a particular ezceptioa, the booty taken at Poonah, Mahidpore, and Nagpore, should belong to the divisions of the Deccan army engaged in the respective operations in which the same was cap tured ; that no part of the booty should be granted to the East India Company ; add that a grant of the whole should be made to Trustees, " for the purpose of as certaining and collecting the said booty, and for pre paring a scheme for the distribution thereof, conforma bly to the principles above stated," but subject to the final approbation and sanction of his Majesty. Agreeably to this recommendation, his Majesty issued, on the 22d of March, 1823, his warrant, under his Royal Sign Manual, appointing his Grace the Duke of Wellingto.), and the Right Hon. Chas. Arbuthnot, trustees for ascertaining, collecting, and receiving the booty, and for preparing a scheme of distribution ac cording to the principles recommended in the minute; giving them power to sue for and recover the booty, or the proceeds of the booty, from the East India Com pany, or their servants, or any other person or persons ; and providing, " that if any differences or questions shall arise thereon, or between our said trustees and the said United Comp.ny of Merchants of England,trading to the East Indies, in regard to the said booty or any part thereof, which may have been delivered over to, or taken possession of by, the said Company, or any of their officers or servants, or which may have been ap plied or appropriated by the said Company, or by the Governor General, sr Governor General in Council, in any manner to the use of the said Company, or which may have been restored, or ordered by the Governor General, or Governor General in Council, to be restored, or may have been treated or considered by the - said Company as not being lawful prize or booty, all such differences or questions relating thereto shall be sub mitted by the said Trustees to rte Commissioners of out Treasury, for the s gnifica•.ion of our royal plea ure thereon, or for the final settlement thereof, as law and justice may require." Such ulterior submission having been made, and the arguments concluded, the claims of the contending parties must now await their final adjudicadsm, either by the Treasury, or by the King. In a preceding page w•e have inserted, from the Gazette ilf-Setarday, a copy of dispatches, which have been received at the India House from Calcutta, bring ing the operations of Brigadier-General Mona mos, •rr the side of Arracan, to May 10 of la.t year. By the occa i .ation of the islands of Kamree and Sandowey, without resistance, the whole Arracan territory is now in our possession. OLD BAILEY-THIS DAY. ••••••■•••••"e . George William Kerridge, who was tried on Saturday in the New Court, and convicted of larceny, was this day put to the Bar, charged with forging and uttering as true, a certain document, well knowing the same to be a forgery. Mr. ANDREWS, who appeared as Counsel for him, applied to postpone the trial, on the ground, that until Saturday evening last no bill had been filed against him for the capital charge, and he having been on that day put on his trial and convicted of larceny ; he had been taken by surprise, and was of course now unpre pared to go to trial. Mr. ALLIT, on the part of the prosecution, said, he was unaware that the present application would have been made; he was, however, instructed by his clients to state, that they would rather be at the expense of again bringing up their witnesses from the country, than have it said they had taken any the slightest ad►antage of the prisoner. Mr. Justice PARC said, as the case stool at present, the Court could not accede to the motion. It was ne- ceuary that good and sufficient cause t•hould appeal on the records of the Court for postponing a trial, as they the Judges were sent here to clear the gaol of New. gate of all prisoners standing chargei with crimes against the law. If, Inwever, the pr ,secutors con sented to the adjournment, the Court would not order otherwise; but, if that was not done, the case must proceed. In fact, the prisoner had himself said, he wished his trial to prec e?d. Mr. At.tirr—My Lords, I do not consent, but I will offer no objection. lam sure my clients have, throughout the whole of this transaction, acted in the most liberal manner. Mr. ANDRICWS—I am sure I would be the last man in the world to attribute anything else to them. Mr. Justice Pang—Prisoner, do you wish your trial to pro• ceed forthwith, or do you wish to have it postponed? Prisoner—My Lord, I will leave it to my Advocate. Mr. Anannws—My Lord, I am ready to consent so far as offer ing no opposition. Mr. Justice Pa ax—Let the case stand over, and let it be recorded that it is dons by consent. . . Saturday, Mary Cain, the wretched woman who was tried on Friday, and convicted of the murder of Maurice Fitzgerald,and who was ordered for execution this morn ing, having pleaded in bar of execution that she was quick with child, at 12 o'clock she was led into the dock by the Officers of the Court. She appeared in a dreadful state of agitation, and trembled excessively. A Jury of Matrons were then sworn by Mr. SHILTON, the Clerk of the Arraigns, and they were ordered by Mr. Justice Palm to retire with the prisoner, to ascer tain if her plea was correct, and after being absent about ten minutes, the forewoman declared it to be the sense of the Jury that she was not at all in a pregnant state:, and consequently the law will take its course. The wretched woman was then carried from the bar by the officers of justice. Fraxeu Robin:eft, a simple-lookiag countryman, was indicted for marrying Jane Calcraft, his former wife being yet alive. John Burnley, the parish clerk of Christ Church, Newgate-street, produced the register, by which it ap tred that the prisoner wasinarried, by bans, to Mary Dick, widow, on the 15 h of July, 1822. H. W. Facey, the clerk of St. Luke's Church. Old street, also produced the register of that parish, by an entry in which it was proved, that in the month of October, 1823, the prisoner was married to Jane Cal a:ft, Spinster. Jane Calcraft confirmed this evidence, but she had no complaint to make against the prisoner. An old man named Glibbon said that he was fe father" when the prisoner married widow Dick, but he hoped the Court would have mercy on him, as he thought, between one woman and the other, the man hardly knew what he was about—(Laughter.) The COMMON SIMINANT inquired whether the first wife was in Curt ? the reply was in the affirmative, but she had nothing to say against the prisoner. The COMMON SERJZANT then said that there appeared something extraordinary about the case, and he should like to know by whom the prosecution was instituted. Glossop, the officer who apprehended the prisoner, explained that the first wife applied for parochial relief, in consequence of which a warrant was issued against the prisoner, aad this circumstance led to the discovery of the double marriage. The prisoner made a long defence, which he delivered with artless simplicity. He would not attempt to deny the charge, but begged to state, that in consequence of his first wife usingihim ill, and getting tipsy, they agreed te separate, when she promised never to trouble him again. Thinking she was clean gone, he wished to take up with another woman, so he took Jane, and rather than scandalize her, be mauled, thinking there was no great harm after the promise made by his former wife. No sooner was he married than she began to siert* him, and came and made distui bailee. and, at last, out of there spite, she went to 'the parish, and got him sent to prison. 4 , This Gentlemen,' said the prisoner, “ is the whole truth of this here mattei." The COMMON SULIZANT that there might be some Matters of extenuation conneved with the case, which the Court might be induced to consider, but it was for the Jury to say whether the fact was proved against the prisoner ? The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty. A little before the Court blot, up, the London Grand Jury pre. skated a true bill against Richard Dina and two others, fur a con spiracy, after being engaged in the investigation for nearly five hours. George his el Lowe, aged 31, was indicted for ems, George SOL 6s. received by him on account of Mr. A. J. Valpy and Co. his employers; he was also indicted for embezzling the sums of 121.125. and 11.71., received by him on the same account. On his being placed at the bar, the prisoner pleaded Guilty to all the three indictments : upon which the R WA:Moen addressed him, and asked whether he bad considered the conse quences of the plea he had just made? He wished him to understand that such a plea would be of no advantage to him ' • and therefore, as a friend, he would advise him to with draw his plea, and plead Not Guilty. The prisoner bowed respectfully to the Court, and said---" I thank your Lordship for your kind admonition, but, with all due deference to the Court, I do not feel disposed to withdraw my plea of Guilty." He was then removed from the bar. THI Feosz.—An immense number of persons as sembled in Sts. James's and Hyde Parks yesterday, to witness the skaiting. The skaiters were also exceedingly numerous, and often impeded each other in their pro gress. Hyde Park, as usual, took the lead in the dis play of cAegant skaiters, who attracted much notice. The Pond at Hampstead; the Canal in the Regent' Park, the New River, and every sheet of water is the vicinity of the metropolis, were covered with M. ividuals skaiting and sliding. We see, by various accounts from the country, that butchers' meat is materially reduced in price : but the London buichers,we believe, have nit yet rcduc-ti their _ much too high prices. EXECUTION OF MARY CAEN. This being the day fixed for carrying into effect the last sad and awful duty of the law, on the body of Mary Caen, convicted on Friday; of eNe wilfel-murder of Maurice Fitzgerald, in Hotte's.court, G: the Old Bailey was crowded U, excess; bb 8 o'clock, one de Ise mass presented itself to view, consisting prin cipally of natives of the Sister King , lfirts. The unfor tunate husband, who is now left wish five children, in company with his eldest daughter, took leave of the unhappy woman yesterday : 'the , eehe may be imagined, but it cannot be described. S' totally ignorant was the miserable woman, that het thoug•as turned more on worldly affairs than on the awful dmm which awaited her. The last tew fleeting hours . ' of her life passed in the same manner, and her anxiety appeared . to be more fixed on a particular gown which she wished to die in, than on preparing herself to meet the AL. NIGHTY. Mr. Sheriff KELL', Mr. BAKER, the wor thy Governor, and the Rev. 0 dinary, atteniptetito offer consolation to her, but her milli' was absorbed in other considerations. The Rev. Mr. Dzsizaitek, a Roman Catholic Clergyman, a:tended her, and his pious admonitions had some slight effect on her. She retired to her cell at the usual hoar, and was attended by females. She slept but one hoar during the 'night,' ' and rose very early. Mr. BAKER was early in his at tendance on her this morning, and shortly after Mr. Museum came. Mr. BAKER now resigned her into his care, and the unfortunate victim of her passiosis . joined with him in prayer. She received the Sacra ment, and at a frw minutes to eight o'clock, the Ordi nary and Mr. BAKER joined them. At eight o'clock', the Sheriff proceeded to the waiting room, and the ' officer was directed to inform the Clergymen, that all ) , was now ready. In a few minutes after, Mr. BAK,* and the Ordinary appeared, followed by Mr. Dtrroe , REV; leading in the culprit; she seemed scarcely able to support herself, and Mr. Mom= 'having handed" her over to the proper officer, her hands and arms were pinioned. During this ceremony, she seemed is pray with great earnestness, and frequently ejaculated, " LORD have mercy on me! Oh, Goal oh, GOD! I am a poor unfortunate woman I" Mr. Direct= now led her to the fatal scaffold, which she ascended with the help of an officer, and the cap was immediately placed over her eyes, and a cord tied round her lower gar ments. She now again prayed most fervently, with Mr. Drrznzux and Mr. COTTON, who read a few words; on coming to the passage, " in the midst of life we are in death," the signal was given and the drop fell, closing the world for ever on the miserable male factor. A Lady who styled herself the Countess of DREMNOND, was extremely anxious to afford consola tion to her, and, for this purpose, came to town yester day. She waited on Mr. Meteor, and also saw the Ordinary, for the purpose of obtaining admission to We the Law carried law effect. She was referred to the Sheriffs. So anxious was she to obtain this object, that so late as twelve o'clock last night, she wrote to Mr. WONTNER, the Governor, Mr. COTTON, Mr. Br- SHOP, and others; her request was not complied with. Se determined, however, was she, that she came to the gaol this morning at an early hour, and again requested admission; her wi,h, was of course, not complied with.. The unhappy woman did nut admit in terms her guilt, though she yesterday said to Mr. COTTON, that she did not stab the deceased on purpose. .• • •• • Aq , ir• 7.• SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
