THE ARMY. The `rand division of the 10th Foot. under the command of Co lonel Payees, marched from Limerick on Monday morning for Gativiy, where they ate to replace the 22d Regiment. The third division of the 75th Regiment have arrived in Galway. Th e ict division of the 10th Foot, under Major Galt% from Castlehar, has relieved the first division of the 22d, at Galway. The Ist division, three companies of the 112 d Regiment, under the command of Major Quetta, marched into Limerick on Tuesday from Galway, OD their route for Fermoy. The escond divition irVre to arrive to-day, and the 3d and grand divisiots on Saturday, for the same place. The 4th, or King's Own Regiment, will very shortly leave Win. chester. Their place will, we uaderithed, be supplied by the illst Regiment. The Southern Regiment of the West Nang YorkshireYeonsattry, under the command of Colonel Lord Witaamcsavra, will assemble at Dincaster, on Thursday next, for eight days' drill. B ar racks are about to be established in Bradford—tbe Bazaar building, in the old market, and an unoccupied warehouse, in Tyr-, rel-street, are to form these inland fortresses. The last division of the 55th Regiment (late from the Maori this) embarked on Friday morning at Plymouth, in the Hope transport, for Hull: GLASGOW, SEpr. 23. Yesterday morning, a little after three o'clock, a fire broke out in the extensive premises in Park-lane, Duke street, belonging to John and Robert Tennent, brewery. The fire was first discovered by the watchman of the brewery. Before the arrival of the fire engines the fire had made such progress in the interior uf the building where it originated, that the granary, which lay to the north of the brewery, was entirely consumed, with above a thousand boils of grain: The counting-house uas fortunately preserved, and the vaulted cellars under the granary have not suffered. Three adjoining thatched houses, occupied by eight poor families, who escaped with little more than their lives, were also burned to the ground. We understand that the brewery was insured. Thursday, about mid-day, as a master mason and two workmen, were engaged in repairing a house in Saltmarket, the Kaffold on which they were standing gave way, and. they were precipitated from a height of nearly five stories. Their lives were singularly pro served. The master was severely bruised. One of the workmen bad his leg and thigh bone broken, and was carried to the Infirmary, and the other was less injured. Thursday afternoon, a girl, about twelve years of age, fell into the Clyde at the New Quay, Brownielaw, and would inevitably have been drowned, had it not been for the exertions of John Wilson, ship carpenter, who plunged into the water with his clothes on, and suc ceeded in bringing her safe to land. This young man was the carpenter on board the Francis and Mary, from John's, N B. for Liverpool, who was picked off the wreck, with six others, on the 7th March last (after sub sistiog on the bodies of -th_ir companions for 18 clsys), of the banks of Newfoundland, by his Majesty's ship Blonde, commanded by Lord. Byron. The Quotidienne, and other French Papers, have long details of the Coronation of the Emperor NICHOLAS ; but all that is intrresting in diem, we have anticipated. The natural effect of that revival of trade which we have witnessed and recorded during the last month with heartfelt gratification, stiil continues, and is manifesting itself daily in the improved condition of the labouring classes.— Leeds Mercury. Among legal objections as to forms, there is one on the subject of which many of the legal fraternity ap tear to be uninstructed. Not long since an attempt was !bade to invalidate an indenture ; because, though per fect in all its parts, the paper on which it was written was not cut in at the top. Jndge Buzzouou desired to look at the deed, and taking the scissars from his pocket, he quietly Sig zagged it, and returned it to the profound lawyer—by whom the quibble bad been started—as a valid instrument. AM A GISTRATI &con ED I—A singular circumstance took place at Mar ket•Bosworth, in Leicestershire, on the Btlf inst. The magistrates were assembled to renew the publicans licences, and from some cause they re fused to renew Michael Messenge's, of the George inn, at that place ; on hearing which his wife, Elizabeth, aimed a blow at T. C. Fell, Esq. the senior magistrate, and knocked him off the bench, and when down laid on him most lustily ; after this she gate a constable a couple of _black eyes and a bloody nose. A number of men were nos called in to secure her, which they did after a hard struggle. The nest morning she was sent off to Leicester gaol, but on the Monday following was "liber.ited on bail. The confidential deputy of the •estryclerk of one of the large paishes immediately adjoining the City, has rely absconded with parish money, supposed to be to the amount of about 30001. The vestry•clerk, who is an eminent solicitor, near.Finsbury-square, will have to make good the loss. On a former similar occasion, it is said he had to pay 6001. _ _ _ A MOD2IIII leonissom• Causes.—The '1 Delis trans port, Lieut. Hopkins, which arrived here a few days since from the Pacific Ocean, had occasion to touch at the Island. of Mocho, for water, the only inhabitant on which was an English seaman, of the name of Joseph Eichardsoo, a native of Aldington, near Ashford, in Kent, who, like another Robinson Crusite, or Alexan der Selkirk, had made choice of such a solitary house less spot, upwards of three years since, for a residence, when he was landed, at his own urgent desire, from a Patriot ship of war, commanded by Captain Robertson. The hland is about sixty miles in circumference, and about sixty miles from the Coast of Chili, in lat. 39 S. It is very seldom visited by ships, as it does not afford necessary supplies of wood, but it does of water, in abundance.. It is remarkably fertile, and abounds with hogs and horses. Richardson has cultivated two gar dens, on the vegetable produce of which, with pork, young horse flesh, and wild pigeons, he lives. lie hunts Abe former animals wi th dogs, a fin e breed of which he has broken in ; the pigeons are so numerous, that he has little difficulty in obtaining them, and a few other kinds of birds, though the only fire-arms he possesses is an old musket, with a broken lock, which he dis charges by means of a match ; but by patient watching under the trees, he contrives, with such defective means, to vary his dirt as often as he wishes. About nine months since, the Indians, hearing of his desolate atria yen, though not at all disposed to join in community, Laded two of their native girls on the island. Richard son instantly made choice of one of them as his console, and proclaimed her Queen of the Island, and the other be calls his cook. The distinction between these two individuals was quite perceptible on the present visit. Richardson having so means of amusement beside the necessary employment of obtaining subsistence, it his own request, brut. Hopkins supplied him with a bible , and prayer Wok. Lieut. H. offered to take him off the Island, but he refused to leave it, declaring his determi. nation ul pa.sini his life in hit own toirernment. He had coitrarenci d erecting a fort, to protect himself from the Indians. Their aso no present appearance of anj increase ofiliis subjtetsej-fiairrjeshery Tektre/ 4 " .. • • • OLD BAILEY. Saturday, Henry Johnson, Anne Allender, and F.liza We Allender, were found guilty of steaing a watch and other articles, valtied 40s. andupwarda, in a dwilling house, during the absence of the owner, William Arneil. An objection was taken to the capital charge of get ting in without the consent, and in the absence of the owner, because Anne Allender was joint tenant with the prosecutor of the house thus entered and robbed, and therefore needed not the' consent of the occupier to go in. In all other particulars the conviction was clear. Mr. Sergeant AIAJIN over-ruled this objection, be cause the Act upon which the prisoners were indicted was passed in order to give the same security to tenants who occupieJo i )artments, which, from their avocations, :hey might be_required to leave without any one in them, as the law before gave to householders, and therefore by the Act, entering an apartment was put upon the same footing as forcibly entering into a house. Jeffries Boyce, who was convicted on Thursday of the assault and rubbery of Mr. Fuller, surgeon, of Bethnal green, %Lis again convicted of a similar assault and n b bery of a Mn Finch, in Eyre -street, Brick-lane. Another prisoner, named Stephens, who was midaken for one of the gang, fully succeeded in proving that he was not within practicable distance of the robbery. Mr. Fuller, the Surgeon before mentioned, as having suffered the assault and robbery, complained to the, Court that having had to attend nine days to await the trial, Ise had incurred considerable loss and inconveni ence, and that when he waited on the officer of the Court to be reimbursed, he found that he was only to receive Ss. 6d. per day, a sum which, the Court would see, could by no means be held as a fair remuneration to a professional man in actual practice. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE said that the Court could not order payment for more than Ss. 6d. a day for wit. nesses generally. A professional man who sh uld be called in, not because of his being a witness, but in a case where he was not a witness, and could only be called to give a professional account and opinion of some part of a case, was entitled to a guinea a day. That was because he was consulted as a person of a par ticular faculty, and not as a witness. On the contrary, in the present case, Mr. Fuller did not appear as a professional man, but as an ordinary prosecutor, and if this claim were to be allowed,/others would soon apply. The Court wonld then have to construct a rule of ex penses, and the administration of justice would become additionally burdensome to the country. However, be would give directions that every allowance that could be found consistent with fairness and justice should be made to Mr. Fuller. John George Leach was indicted under Lord Ellen borough's act for stabbing and cutting, with intent to do grievous bodily harm to James Brooks, who was ex amined by the Court. Prisoner-came to the shop of Mr. Careless, which goes out of Clare-market, on the 27th of June, at about seven o'clock in the evening. He sp..ke to witness about 1001. which he said witness withheld for the maintenance of Miss Murray's (prisoner's wife's) child. The conversation proceeded, and prisoner had his hand under his coat. Witness was standing behind the counter, and desired him to leave the shop, as he used improper language. Prisoner aimed a b)ow at him with his right hand (having but one), and struck him in the left arm. Witness turned prisoner out of the shop, and thinks that he struck him. In parrying the blow, witness struck his face, but did not know then that he was stabbed ; he felt the bone stunned. On discover- ing the wound, he went to a surgeon. Witness (being directed by the Court to read Ms deposition) ad mitted that in making it. he had not stated that he had bora stabbed. Cross-examined by Mr. Basal—Witssesetnrned him out of the shop, but did not drive bird into a butcher's shop ; did not put him is rear of la life, nor did he see a knife in the hand of the butcher. He stated to the neighbours that he was wounded, to two green grocers and two butchers. He had paid 501. and takes an indemnity for them not to trouble bins any more. Did not know where pri soner and his wife lodged. Thomas Kirby, shopman to Mr. Careless, saw pri soner enter the shop and ask for Mr. Brooks. Prisoner called him in from the street. He asked Brooks it he knew him. Brooks said no. He asked if Brooks knew Miss Murray, whom he had seduced. Brooks - asked if he had married Miss Murray. Prisoner asked it he had 1001. to pay down for the child. Brooks said he had not; he had already paid 50i. and now had nothing more to do with her. (Witness described the+assault in the same terms as the last witness.) Mr. Weaver, surgeon of Blackmoor•street, Clare. market, saw and dressed the wound, which was about three quarters of an inch long, and not deep. The blow was stopped by the bone called the ulna. Believes that there was a small artery divided. Did not dress it first; his man did, who is not here. Mr. BARRY took an objection. By Lord Ellenbo rough's act, the capital charge could not be sustained except m cases where, on death ensuing, the aim would be murder. Here there were no circumstances to help out that charge. Here was a scuffle with blows given on each side, and the accusing party confessed, that for several minutes he was ignorant of having been wounded, and made his deposition the next day before the Magistrate without mentioning it: so that if his antagonist had died, no one could have made more of it than manslaughter. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALR said, that it might come out from the rest of the witnesses that the blow was received the scoille. At prebent it was directly sworn that the prisoner aimed a blow, and stabbed the prosecutor in the left arm. Cousins, the constable, apprehended the prisoner next morning. He said, that be hoped the warrant might prove his own death warrant, as he was tired of his life. Witness said, speaking from what he had heard, he was afraid prisoner had entertained some jealous notions.— Prisoner said that if he had stabbed Brooks, it must have been with the pallet knife, which he produced. George Green deposed to a conversation with the prisoner, respecting Brooks, about four or five months ago, when the prisoner said he carried an instrument to put an end to the existence of Mr. Brooks, his wife, and the child. He (the prisoner) would leave the witness alone for the present. The prisoner, in his defence, denied that he had in tended harm to Mr. Brooks ; he had nothing about him with which he could stab him ; he might have had some glass in his pocket, which was convenient to him, as he had lost his urn. He had maintained the prose-, cutor's bastard child for three years, without receiving a farthing. Mr.Ju►tice LITTLZDA LE was of opinion that there were points of some difficulty in this case. The instrument did not appear calculated to do a person a serious injury ; the person who first dressed the prosecutor's arm was not present; them seemed to be a distraction in the pi. boner's mind, wising from private sufferings. The Jury, after examining the knife, were of the same opinion, and acquitted the prisoner. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. • DONCASTER, R A CES--(Cover.oussi). DONCASTBR, SATIOADAT, Sm. 43. Tut GOMA? ST.
