THE ARAN. Orders have been transmitted to New South Wales, where die 48th Resin,: ut is stationed, to reduce that Corps, at pre sent int 0 strong, ta the establishment of the rest of the Infan try. It wa s owing to a special application from the late Go vernor, iu 1818, that it was increased to that strength. It is so w preferred to place the 48th on the same footing with the other Infantry battalions, and to forward an additional Re giment to the station. The Sd (or Buffs) have received orders of readiness for New South Wales, and are on their way to ch e rn a in, wh e nce, according as convict ships go our, they will he sent in detachments on board those vessels. Bats-rev Ot riceas.—lt is understood, that a Regulation has lizeo recently nude at the War Office, and will speedily be pub lished at the Horse Guard+, which will tend, not only to purify the Army of such Officers as may be found unworthy of holding Isit Marren's Commission, but also reduce the annual amount of that branch of the public expense. The various applications which have been made to the COMMAKDER-131-CHISIF by persons w h o have been injured, and in many instances defrauded, by n a tf.p a g Oficers, have induced his Royal Highness to signify his gr acious intention to direct, that the Half-pay of all Officers, against whom applications are made to hint for pecuniary redress, shall be at twice appropriated to reimburse the claimants or cre ditors of inch Officers, who, if their honour or character appear to be involved, will be struck off the Half-pay List, so as to pro tect the property of the Public, and to repudiate unprincipled men from his JlaJusn's service.—Dublin Morning Pug.

A boxing match took place on the Bowling-green, Carlisle, on Tuesday, 4th September, between a Butcher and aGrocer, owing to a dispute between the parties. The fight afforded much diver sion. Twenty rounds were fought in fifteen minutes; and the Grocer had 2st. weight over his adversary, who weighed 11 4st. Round I. After much sparring, the Butcher planted a smart hit upon his adversary's chest, and broke away—he repeated the blow, and the Grocer returned upon him, hut out of distance.

Doo-Ftowtoto, &c.—At the Middlesex Sessions, yesterday, 1 11'hite and others were indicted, at the suit allelic. Parish of Paddington, for keeping a house fur the exhibition of unlawful games, such as dog-fightieg, monkey-fighting, and badger-baiting, in Harper's-fields, Edgeware-road, to the great annoyance of the neighbourhood. At the suggestion of Counsel, the defendants pleaded guilty, upon condition only of being required to enter into recognizances to applar before the Court to receive judg ment when called upon, in case they should be again guilty of such o*nces. • MELANCHOLY Erreces or Jaatottsy.—Yestoiday, at the Man sion-House, a poor woman of the name of kitrrell, with a child in her arms, was placed at the bar, charged with aiding in an assault upon a young man of the name of Kelly, who had been stabbed by her husband on the preceding night, in Rose-alley, near Shoreditch Church. There was no evidence to inculpate the poor woman, and she was immediately discharged. A message was brought to the LORD Mayo& from St. Thomas's Hospital, stating that Kelly was in a dying state, and that he wished to make his deposition before a Magistrate as to the melancholy occurrence which had taken place. Alderman J. J. Stamm being the sitting Magistrate at the Town Hall, Southwark, was applied to to take the deposition of the unfortunate young nun. The worthy Alderman proceeded immediately to the hospital to the bedside of Kelly, who is a tall powertul-looking young man, apparently of about 28 years of age. Ile was extended on the bed, in great agony, groaning heavily; his shirt lay beside him, covered with blood. The Alderman informed the unfor tunate young man of the purpose for which he had come, and he made the following deposition :—" My name is Michael Kelly; I reside at \o. S, Rose-alley, Bishopsgate-street, and am a labourer in the East India Company's warehouses ; Simon Farrell and his wife, who lodge in the same house as I do, are always at variance; I used always to be trying to make peace between them ; they quarrelled last night, pad Simon Farrell slept upon the stairs • I sat upon a chair in their room and fell asleep ;we were bo th the worse for liquor; I meant to have gone to my own bed, but by mistake went towards the bed where Farrell's wife was lying; she called out' You are wrong, Michael ; I said, 4 I beg your pardon ; I thought that Farrell was in bed with his wife, lint I found he was upon the stairs ; he came in and took an old sword that was hanging in the room, and without saying a word to me ran it into my back; I had got into my own room from Farrell's ; he had followed me there • I was in my own room at the time ; after he had wounded me, he assisted me to open the door to gt:t out ; Iwas join getting into bed at the time he came ; I did not suspect that he was going to do me any mischief, or was behind ale ; Far rell's son, a boy of about thirteen years of age, cried out Shame, father 4.• After I was wounded I came down stairs to call the watchman or get some assistance ; I was so weak that I fell down in the dirt outside the street-door; while 1 was lying in the street I saw Farrell run away with the sward under his ' atm ; it was in about five minutes after I bad fallen down; at the time he stabbed me, he said, You blackguard, take that I never had a word with him before ; we had been spending the afternoon together at a public-house; I never gave him cause for jesloasy, nor did I know that he was jealous of me."— Kelly then signed the above deposition, and declared that he had nothing Maher to add to it; at was the truth, and he bad nothing further to say. The wound, it lt stated, has penetrated the hoess.—A warrant was issue.' for the apprehension of Farrel. OLD BAILEY SESSION& • TRIAL OF MR. TURNER. Yesterday William Swiney Barnard Turner was put to the bar, indicted for forging eight several transfers in the Bank of England ; and also for forging seven receipts, &c. with intention to defraud the Go vernor and Company of the Bank of England.—The prisoner pleaded Not Guilty. Mr. BOLLAND opened the case. Mr. Serjeant Bosanourr addressed the Jury.— The unfortunate man at the bar stands indicted for a most serious and capital offence. The respectable situation in which he was placed supposes that his character must have been good ; but placed as he was, in a situation of considerable trust, he ought to have prevented others from defrauding his employers. The Learned Serjeant explained the nature of the circumstances under which the fraud was committed, which were shortly these. Sir R. Peel had in March last considerable property in the Navy 5 per Cents. £lO,OOO of which was transferred into the name of John Penn, Esq. of Highgate. This was not disco vered till the 20th of May; when on referring to the books in which the transfers were entered, two leaves were found missing. It was then discovered that the stock had been fraudulently sold, and that John Penn, the alleged purchaser, was a fictitious name. This transfer being made, it was necessary likewise to proceed to give the receipts. For the purpose of a check three books are kept, in which all transfers are entered; and it was necessary that this transaction should appear in each ; and the manner in which it was so entered excited suspicion, which led to detec tion. The Learned Counsel then entered into a long detail of the various circumstances attendant upon the fraud, and which it would be his duty to endea• your to prove in evidence. Mr. IteyNottis then called Edward Salisby.—l am a clerk in the Bank of England, in the Navy 5 per Cents. Office. Our office is separated into four divi sions; it is my duty to enter the transfers. We had no account of a transfer from Sir Robert Peel on the 20th of March.—(Here the witness examined the ledger.)—The last entry is dated 30th of May, 1820; it is " 0. Y. 86, to J. Bunn, No. 5,281, I:10,000," it is not my Writing ; I wtote the following words, N 20th Mar. 1821, to J. Penn, £10,000," which were erased. I made this entry from the transfer-book. I shoed be able to refer to the transfer-book, by this entry, if it were correct. The original entry of mine I should have said R. Y. I stated it from memory. 'The book I hare now before me, is what the transfer should appear in. It appears to me that two pages of this book have been torn out, which would occa sion the corresponding leaves of the sheet to be out too. There is an alteration in the paging of the folios. The following page now stands 85 upon an erasure; and the pages are altered as far as 93. There is no alteration in the former part of the book. The date of the entry preceding the leaf that has. been taken out, is 20Ih March. Cross-examined by Mr. GURNEY.—When I speak of the state in which I wrote the entry, I do not speak from any recollection of the fact, but from reference to other books. These books are not written by me. There are about 50 clerks in the Navy 5 per Cents. office. All of them would have access to the ledger. Each clerk operates as a check upon the other. En tries are made on the same day, and afterwards checked. Notwithstanding, accidents sometimes occur. Re-examined by Mr. REYNOLDS.—There are eleven clerks in my office. The accounts between Sir Ro bert Peel and John Penn would have been entered in my division. Walter Prideaux examined by Mr. BOLLAND....-I am a clerk in the Transfer Office. It is my duty to enter a transfer. I recollect making an entry for £lO,OOO to J. Penn, Esq. Highgate ; I took it from the R.Y. entry-book. I have the book before me, bat it is not here now—the number 4181 ; when I posted it, it was 11,181. There was no account opened to John Penn, of Highgate, and therefore I opened a new one. As the entry now stands, it is " 182 J, Mar. 26, P.Y. 86, by It. (some name illegible from a blot) ) No. 4181, £10,000.” As I made it, it was " R.Y. 86, by It. Peel." I can find no ticket for such transfer. No transfer is made without such ticket. The trans fer is entered into the book from such tickets, they are afterwards filed and taken into the strong room. I have looked there for this ticket, but I can't find it. Cross-examined by Mr. ALLEY.—In the alteration a 4 is substituted for al. I cannot swear from re collection that I ever saw a figure of 1 in that place. It is - sometimes, but not always, my duty to take the file of transfer tickets into the strong room. It was net my duty to carry in the file on which this ticket ought to have been. John Baker Mansel.—l am a clerk in the division i L to It, in the'same Office as the lust witness. On the 12th of April, 1820, there was an entry in Sir It. Peel's name, in the ledger, for £14,7.59 Is. sd. the original transfer was for £4759 Is. sd. which is my hand-writing. Some one has added the figure of a 1, which makes it 14,000. By Mr. Guasay.—l have been a considerable time in the Office with Mr. Turner. At the time he was charged I owed him £lOO, which he had not required me to pay him. At the time of his apprehension I owed him £95. The usual time for the clerks to leave is from three to half-past three o'clock. 1 am not aware that Mr. Turner, on the day of his appre hension, left earlier. _ _ _ John , Alseger, another clerk in the same office, I examined by Serjeant Bomstounr.—lt was my duty, on the 20th of March last, to supervise the transfers. I have some confused recollection of a transfer in that month, in the name of Sir Robert Peel, but cannot' speak with certainty. Thomas Charles Frances, another clerk in the same office, examined by Mr. REYNOLDS.7-T am in no di vision. My business is to search the powers of attor ney, and compare the ledgers with them. In the month of March last, I found no powers of attorney in thename of Sir Robert Peel. John Oswald Trotter, another clerk in the same office, corroborated the foregoing evidence. Charles Norris, examined by Mr. 801. LA NTI).-•I am chief clerk in the Navy 5 per Cents. Office. All the clerks in that division (from L to R, fifteen in num ber) were present on the 20:11 of March. Their names arc always entered in this book.—(l-lere Mr. Bolland called over their names, which tallied w ith the book). —lt is the duty of all those clerks, as occasion may occur, to witness transfers. Cross-examined 4 Mr. IV ILLIAus.— I have no re. collection that Mr. Turner was absent on leave about the 20thof Marcb.—(The witness here referred to his book, and found that the prisoner was absent from the 21st of April to the 7th of May, inclusive.) --.1 have been on terms of intimacy with Mr. Turner for upwards of three years, and my opinion of him was very high. The other clerks in that department of the office were then called, who respectively deposed to their not having attested any transfer from Sir Robert Peel on that day, and likewise to their having made no alterations in the transfer-book. They also said they knew of no such person as James Smith in the Ro. tunda (which was the name inserted for the broker employed). 1 . Sir Robert Peel was then called. Mr. ALLEY ob jected to Sir Robert being examined, on the ground of his being an interested party until it was proved that Sir Robert's loss had been made up, and some considerable discussion took place between the Learned Counsel for the respective parties and the Bench, which ended by a decision in favour of Mr. Alley ; and Sir Robert was nut here examined. Robert Best, E•q. Secretary to the Bank of Eng land, was then sworn. _ _ _ Mr. Best proved that the Directors of the Bank of England had resolved to refund to Sir Robert, Peel the £lO,OOO Navy Five per Cents. which had been fraudulently transferred from his account. The re solution to that effect was put in evidence. Mr. Cole examined by Mr. REYNOLDS......I am a broker. I purchased £lO,OOO five per cent. for the Bank, to be transferred to Sir Robert Peel ; it was so transferred before tie dividends were paid. James Gynne examined by Mr. IIEYNOLDS.t am one of the clerks of the Transfer Office. On the Sd of July, stock to the amount a £lO,OOO was trans ferred to the name of Sir Robert Peel. 1 witnessed that transfer ; it was made in time to carry the dividends. Sir Robert Peel was then examined.—l was on the 20th of March at my hou-e in the country. I did not myself make, nor did I authorise any person by power of attorney to make for me a transfer often thousand pounds that day, Joseph Starling.—l am a stockbroker ; I saw the prisoner on the 21st of March. He came to me in the Rotunda, and asked me the price of stock, saying that he had £l,OOO to disposeof. The price was I agreed to purchase the £I,OOO. He left me, and went towards the Five per Cent. Office. I saw him again in the Office at the close of the day. I ten dered him my check for the amount on his giving I me a receipt.. The check produced is what I gave him. In the receipt there was a mistake of five shil lings in the calculation, of which I told him, and he altered it. I believe the filling up of the transfer to be his hand-writing, but I cannot speak to a cer tainty. I saw no broker in this business. I left it to him to get the transfer made to me. Mr. Norris was again examined by Mr. REYNOLDS. —He read from the transfer-book the entry of the £l,OOO sold to Mr. Starling by John Penn, Esq. and witnessed by 'William Turner. Knows the hand writing of prisoner well ; the signature is his. I can't say in whose hand-writing the name John Penn is ; under it is written the name of J. Smith. The wit nessing-clerk ought to know that the person so sign ing was either a broker or respectable person. Tlie words gi John Penn" ought to have been written by Mr. Campbell, as he is the person who has entered the transfer. Ido not know any broker of the name of J. Smith. Cross-examined by Mr. ADOLPIIOB.—It is Cllsta. mary for a broker to witness: but it is often the ease for other persons to do it. Mr. Campbell proved that the name " John Penn" was written by him, and that he copied it from a transfer ticket. The witness made out the transfer from a ticket whiih he received from a clerk, whose duty it was to hand it to him on that day, but could not say from whom it was. Edward Taylor proved paying a check of Mr. Starling's, for £1045, but could not say to whom he paid the money. Mr. Weston is a clerk in the Three per Cents. Office, the 27th March received from the prisoner a £3OO note, two for one hundred, and some smaller ones, which he paid over to Mr. Harman. Mr. Hat man corroborated the testimony of the last witness, and identified the notes produced. There were three for £lOO, and he believed one for £9OO. Mr. Nixon, Deputy Receiver General for the County of Middlesex, said, that in the beginning of April he received from the prisoner £l5OO, on the 6th of April, £l5OO, and on the 7th of April, ano ther sum, the whole of which he paid lilt° the Bank of Curtis and Co. Thomas proved receiving, in the month of Match, £3OO from the prisoner, which he paid into the house of Messrs. Ladbroke, he supposed from the fact of his being in the habit of doing so. Mr. Alseger, Clerk in the house of Messrs. Lad broke, proved receiving two £lOO and one 1:40 notes from the previous witness, and identifici two of them now produced. Thomas Mose, Clerk in the Three per Cents. Of fice proved receiving from the prisoner, in the month of March, £l3l 12s. in Bank-notes. Examined by Mr. Guasey.—Would undertake to say, from his own recollection, that he did receive a. £lOO note from the prisoner, which he paid into the bank of Messrs. Curtis; he might, in die month of March, have paid another £lOO note into their hands. Robert Strahan identified the notes paid by dose to him. Two notes, now produced, were part of them. He could not say what day in March it was he received them. Mr. Kaye, solicitor, proved seeing the pi isoner in the month of May List, relative to certaia entries.— Several transfers were produced and shewn the pri. soner, they amounted to about £lO,OOO. At the time of the discovery, the prisoner described Mr. Smith to be of the Stock Exchange, but not a Mem ber, and that he did not know anything of him, but from his attending in the Rotunda. The second transfer was attested by the same person named Smith. The prisoner was then asked ..b..rtit Mr. Penn, and said, he had been introduced to him as John Penn, and was about 50, but did not know whether he had any transactions in the funds previously. Smith had transacted business in his (die prisoner's) book before, and he knew him as a respectable broker, and ba , - heved lie was known to Messrs. Campbell and sari bury, of the Five per Cents. Ofece. All the transfers were witnessed by the prisoner, and identified by J. ISmith. In answer to further questions, the prisoner voi the • St. tep.
