PLACEMEN and PENSIONERS in IRELAND. Among the Parliamentary Reports of last Ses. sion there is one instructive document, entitled, " A Return of the several Perions in each Public Office ini l Ireland holding two or more Offices or Pensions," &C. and, strange to add, the document so described, con tains not more than 29 folio pages, consisting only of the names of Ladies and Gentlemen, with the nature and amount of the pecuniary gratifications which they have severally been permitted to appropriate. We do not mean to dwell on the instal ce of Mr. GREGORY, Under Secretary in Mr.GOULEURN'S office: his rank gives him a claim to some notice, but it shall be brief. This Gentleman has a salary of £2OOO per annum, and he has besides a pension of £5OO per annum, with be. nefit of survivorship se his wife. This is moderate on the Lady's part, considering that she is a Trench—a sister of Lord CLANCARTY, the Peer who performed so indefatigably the simultaneous duties of Postmaster General and itinerant Ambassador not many years ago: they are both cousins of the late Marquis of LONDONDERRY. The next we shall remark upon is a Mr. SIDNEY STREITFEILD, who is Private Secretary (at three hundred pounds per annum) to Mr. PEEL.— But he is also second Clerk in the Chief Secretary's Office for Ireland, for which he receives £460 per an num, but hires a person to do the duty. Now the country ought to know the exact sum for which this Gentleman is able to procure a competent deputy, which sum ought tobe the limit of the charge upon the Public. We come next to the Customs—an ample field, tut one over which we have not time to tratel other than hastily. Mr. HRNRY HAMILTON, of a fa mily well known in the records of Dublin Castle, is a Commi,sionet of the Board, at per annum £l,OOO , Ile is also Customer of Dundalk and Newry 651. Also a pensioner on the Civil List S5O £2,004 ItcsERT WYNNE, Esq. is a superannuated Commis :loner, and has also two pensions of £3OO and 4.:9.00 per annum. There is then the Hon. WILLIAM LE POER TRENCH, another of the Clancarty family ! Secretary. to the Board, 1..:92.5, and a half-pay Navy Captain at 1:221. We know well that it may be thought un mannei ly in us to suggest to a member of that noble house, the expediency of giving up £220 to the na tion for so poor an equivalent as £925. The Right Hon. the Earl of DONOUGHMORE is a searcher, a packer, and a gauger, at per annum £1,07.5 ; but he is also a superannuated Commissioner at E 1,600! The same Peer is moreover a Remembrancer to the Exchequer, of which, for some reason, or through some means or other, the value has not been ascertained. Now his Loichhip must permit us to ask him, if he were superannuated and unfit for duty as a Com miscioner, how comes it he can discharge the duties of a searcher, gauger, &c. at Donaghadee, and of a Remembrancer in the City of Dublin? The list is so long, and our limits so narrow, that we cannot indulge our Readers with any further sam ples of the intelligence with which it abounds. Mr. 'l'. STAPLES, Mr. W. S. MASON, Mr. T. ORDE LEES, are, each in his way, so many edifying instances of' public virtue, economy, aod of f icial übiquity, in Ire lane', and we recommend them accordingly to the attelition - of the reader. The Duke and Duchess of CLARIDICIC and suite arrived yesterday afternoon at Bushey Park, from the Continent. Yesterday evening his Royal Highness the Duke of CAMBRIDGE arrived at the King s Palace at Pim lico, in his travelling canine and four, accompanied by Colonel PLATT, from Brighton. The equestrian statue of his late MAJESTY was on Monday elcvatei on its pedestal in London-road, near Liverpool. It hof fine bronze, but of a tint Less dark than NELSON'S Monument—is of the size cf life, and an excellent likeness of the late KING. Lon don-road Has crowded the whole day with spectators. Thursday and Friday se'nnight, H. BsouGNAlt, Esq. M.P. visited Mr. Owe's% interesting establish ment at New Lanark. Tuesday, Sir FRANCIS BURDETT visited Mr. HUNT in Ilchester Jail, to congratulate him upon his ap proaching liberation. The Honourable Baronet passed through Ilchester with his family, on his way from Sidmouth to Foothill. From thence he proceeded to Bath, in his road to Foremark, in Derbyshire, where he is going to enjoy the pleasures of the chace. DEATH Or MR. BROOKS.—Mr. SAMUEL BROOKS) of the Strand, so well known for the active share he Las for many years taken in the politics of West minster, died yesterday, at Margate, aged 65 years. Air. BROOKS was Treasure; of the Westminster Asso ciation fur Preserving the Purity of Election ; and was always one of the most zealous supporters of Sir FRANCIS BuRDETT and the opposition Candidates, at the Westminster Elections. DUEL—Mursday morning a duel took place bt ivven Captain P.....1t ) of the Marines, and Mr. M —s, a.Gentiesitan )(flown on the 'Change, occasioned by a dispute on Wednesday yelling at Covent-Garden Theatte,.Captain P--a, either to:9up mistake or otherwise, having forcibly taken possess:vn of . a haokney-coach; which Mr. M—s had retained for his family. Mr. M—s, on coming up to the Coach, found the Captain just about to enter it, be having'pte vinusly handed a Lady in. Mr. M—s remonstrated, but the Captain refused to give up possession. High 'words ensued, and the result was the meeting in ques tion, which took place at the back of Holland House. The panics fired at the same instant ; Captain P—it's ball passed through the collar of Mr. M—'s coat, and the Captain WAS slightly wounded in the right aim. The seconds then interfered; the Captain de clared his readiness to apologise, which was accepted, and the parties returned to town good friends. • ABERDEEN,.

For neglecting to comply with a Iteginiental Order, dated April 18, 1821, respecting the settlement of his regimental debts, due to the clerk of his troop ; though frequently applied to by the clerk of the troop for that purpose. 2. For disgraceful conduct, in giving two drafts to the Mess man of the Regiment, on the Agents, which drafts were disho noured, about the 24th of June and 7th of July, 1822. 5. For being repeatedly absent from his Regiment without leave, in the year 1822: all such conduct being highly prejudi cial to good order and military discipline, and unbecoming the character of an Oncer and a Gentleman. Upon which charges-the Court came to the following decision : " The Court having taken into their consideration the whole of this case, and having duly weighed the evidence kid before them, as well on the part of the promention ashy Captain Jebb hi his defence ' are of opinion as to the brat charge , that Capt.

" A 3 to the second charge, that Capt.

HILL) called the Regiment together into the Riding-house, and there read aloud the charges and sentence to the whole. Capt. Jena was not present, nor indeed any but the persons officially con nected with the Regiment. This proceeding seemed to create a powerful sensation, in which Colonel Drake joined, stopping several times. After reading some other Orders, the Regiment returned to the Dermas.

During the three months to which the exertions of the Company were restricted, a good deal of novelty, some of it of a very pleasing character, has been presented to the Public. The season has, on the whole, been beneficial to the treasury. The performances on Saturday even ing were the Operatic Drama of Gil Bias, the Farce of Gretna Green, a Musical Olio, and the Operetta of Love among the Roses. After the Musical Olio, in which MissPOVEY, Mr.BROADHURST, and Mr.PEAR MAN distinguished themselves, Mr. BARTLEYCaMe for ward and delivered the following farewell Address : "'Anna arm Gurmatzu—As the opening of a theatrical season brings with it hope, so the close as naturally produces regret. We met you only three months ago with buoyant spirits, and we now take our leaves with unaffected sorrow. " For the first time since this Theatre was erected, we have had a fair, thanes a limited chance of attracting your notice by the closing of the Patent Theatres for thirteen weeks—we have thus been relieved from the oppressive burden of the extended seasons of what of late years were absurdly called " The. Winter Theatres." For this regulation we (in common with the Hay market Theatre) have been indebted to the liberal and upright interference of the present Lord Chamberlain, who has con descended to take so enlarged a view of the subject of public amusements (making the public accommodation his first object), as compels us thus gratefully to acknowledge the weighty obli gation his interposition has conferred also upon us. " The Proprietor. Ladies and Gentlemen, proudly feels that the exertions which have been used to excite your notice and merit your countenance have, during the short period thisThea4 has been open, been crowned with as much success as season of the year, and the remarkable heat of a large port ' of a remarkably fine summer, could allow him to hope fur. The 1 novelties produced have been uniformly successful, and many oil them greatly attractive ; and it is with feelings of heartfelt ac knowledgment, and sincere regret, that I am now compelled, in his name, in my own, and in that of all the Performers, to , offer you our respectful good wishes, and to bid you farewell." PULPIT WARFARE.—Sunday se'nnight, the con gregation of the Dissenting Chapel at Bersted, rear Bognor, were thrown into the utmost confusion from the following circumstance :—The Rev. J. SAUNDERS I preached his farewell Sermon ; and, in the course of his address, animadverted in very strong terms on thel treatment which he had received from the members. of the Chapel, during his residence among them.— This drew forth some spirited observations from the Rev.J. HUNT, of Chelmsford (but late of Chichester), who sat in the body of the Chapel. A warm contro versy between the Ministers ensued, and which, to the great amusement of the auditors, terminated by Mr. HUNT'S obtaining possession of the pulpit. THE BISHOP or CLOGIISR.—.-We are today enabled to announce some very important particulars in con nexion with the case of this unhappy person. The wit nesses who arrived from London, a couple of weeks since, having undergone a preliminary examination in Dublin by Sir H. Mzeitorrn, were subsequently dis patched to the seat ofjudicial investigation at Armagh. The proceedings iu the Metropolitan Court have al ready commenced. The LORD PRIMATE and assist ' ing Bishops have been sitting during the last few days, and before these Right Reverend Personages, the regular examination of the accusing witnesses has taken place. This part of the process will, it is understood, terminate this day (the 4th instant). — The course which follows next will occupy, perhaps, about ten days more. The Ecclesiastical law has pe culiar forms, and directs intervals between the. publi- , cation of the charge against an accused party, the' examination of witnesses, anti other distinct parts of l the proceedings. Judgment will be pronounced, it is communicated to us, either on the 13th or 14th inst. Of course no doubt can exist of its being that of de privation—in other words, a removal from all spi ritual rank and distinction, the dispossession of all Church revenues and emoluments, and an exclusion for ever from any connexion with the clerical character. —The Court having thus finally closed its sittings, 6fiteen days will be allowed to the accused party to appeal against its judgment ; when, as no appeal is likely to be entered, tae sentence of deprivation will be officially promulgated. The course of pro ceeding adopted by the Authorities, in this most pain ful case, has given the greatest satisfaction to the Clergy, and other members of the pure Church which one of its Dignitaries has so wanatnrally scandalised. The Bishop of Clogher is at Fans.—from the Daidin Journal of Friday. ------ - - - - 32d Ditto:-Lieutenant John George Campbell, from half-pay of the Regiment, to be Lieutenant, vice Thomas Ross Lewen, who exchanges receiving the difference. 52d Ditto—Captain Hon. George Anson, from the Sd Foot Guards, to be Captain, vice Northey, who exchanges. 1 76th Ditto—Brevet Major Thomas Viten to be Major, by pur chase, vice M' Donald, who retires. s4th Ditto—Captain Hon. Richard Pepper Arden, from the 32d Foot, to be Major, by purchase, vice Pokier, who retires. 3d Royal Veteran Battalion—Ensign James Lowrie to be Ad jutant, vice John Hogan, who returns to the Retired List. It is now understood that Lord Comsaamaar, G. CB. who has been named for some time as the successor of the late Lieute nant-General Sir SAMUEL AUCHMUTY, well certainly go to Ire land, and assume the command of the forces in that part of the United Kingdom. A Company of the 15th Regiment of Foot will arrive to morrow at Newcastle-under-Line, from Wolverhampton, pro -ceed from thence to Liverpool, where it will arrive on Friday next, the 11th, and embark witrthe first division of its corps, for Dublin, on the 14th instant. _ _ The 24 and 3d divisions of this corps will not march from Hull till the 11th and Is2h, and are ordered to arrive an the 18th and 19th instant, at Manchester. A squadron of the Bays will arrive at York this day, from A company of the 66th Regiment of Foot will arrive to-day at Carlisle, from Sunderland. _ _ . Monday, Major-General Sir Joint &Jar, H.C.B. inspected the 3d Royal Veteran Battalion, quartered at Galway, com manded by Lientenant.Colonel Fox, in the demesne of Mance. 11. LYNCiI, Esq. at Barna. At the conclusion of the Review the Major-General was pleased to express his entire spproba don at the uniform appearance of the Battalion, and their steady conduct in the field; and, at the same time, strongly recom mended a strict adherence to that proper co nduct in quarters which would insure them the good-will of the inhabit:mu. A man of the name of Amid C.allaskus, of the Veteran Bat talion, at present in Cork, has been arrested, on suspicion of being concerned in the murder of the Rev. Mr. OMAGH'S ser vant. Some of the 14th Regiment are also under examination before the Magistrates, in consequence of expressions regarding the murder, made use of by th ese, whilst rioting in a public house on Su nday tennien.
