Fotss—About half-past twelve o'clock this morn ; a dreadful fire broke out at the house occupied a publishing the Traveller Newspaper, in Fleet. street, which totally destroyed the same, and damaged the house of Mr. Hale, Upholsterer, and some o th er iildings a t t h e b ac k. Great credit is due to the s conducting the engines, particularly those of Bride's and St. Dunstan's parishes, which, aided plentiful supply of water, effectually arrested the . of the destructive element, and thereby preserved neighbourhood. Happily no lives were lost, nor _ hear of any accident. A fire also broke out about three o'clock this 7, in Bermondsey-street' Southwark, which, three or fou r small houses, before it was Two crossbills, or German Parrots, were lately by Mr. Rogert.Shitler, of Haslebury Briant, in :county of Dorset.

Mason's blow. The paper above then• tioned he signed just before the Court of Inquiry that was lately held on Colonel Smith and Capt. Mason, and that too through fear, for he had been ill-treated by Capt. Mason, and dreaded the consequence of a refusal. He never should have signed it from his own free will. Lieutenant Smart, Assistant-Surgeon, and a very young man, was next called. He deposed, that he had attended Serjeant Wood, in his professional ca pacity, about twelve months ago, he having com plained of labouring under a bowel complaint.— Wood complained of having received a blow on his left side, just under his ribs, this being about nine days after the blow was alledged to have been given, but did not desire witness to look at it, not did he examine it ; witness did not think that the bowel Complaint arose from that blow, nor did he treat Wood as if it had arisen from such a cause ; witness did not recollect that Wood had ever had any thing ehe matter with him before the bowel complain:allu ded to. John Clinton, the second person named in the fourth charge, was next called. He had been billed uit, I. e. confined, in the store guard-room, just after Christmas last ; and while under arrest was compel led to mount guard, and all this too by the order of Capt. Mason. He was confined from a Tuesday to the Monday following ; and, while so confined, was taken very ill, owing to the manner in which he was obliged to sleep in the guard-room, sometimes lying on the floor, and at other times on some stairs, with Only a brick, a pint pot, or an old broom that he found in the place for his pillow ; and at last he was fearful of losing the use of his limbs ! Whilt he was so in " durance vile," a great many ns were also un. der confinement in the same ho le o r guard-room, and which caused the place to be so crowded, that they could not all lie down at one and the same time ! Witness, from the effect of his confinement, and a rheumatism and cough which had affected him for the last two pr three years, was so weak and unwell, that necessity obliged him to lay his almost lifeless corpse on the bare boards of this hole-guard.rooin, and while in that situation, the other prison er s b e i ng so confined for room, waded over hied and while so down, he was kicked up by a guard on duty I Being so unwell, he applied for leave to go t o t h e hospital, which he obtained ; but when he returned, he was re manded back to his former place of confinement ; and while under such arrest he was compelled to go on guard, though from his confinement, the conse quence of which was a violent head-ache and extreme weakness, he' was scarcely able to raise himself from I the stairs on which he was lyin g to go on duty. In his cross-examination, he admitted that he had written several letters, complaining of hard usage, to' the Major-General commanding the brigade • and on being asked whether he recollected Lord B anbury's telling him that if he wrote any more such letters, he (Lord B.) would have him tried by a Brigade Court Martial.? witness answered,—" No I but I recollect Captain Mason's telling me so." James Hinton, the third person named 41 the fourth charge, deposed that he had been confined in the store guard-room by the order of Captain Mason ; and that while under such arrest, he was ordered by the Serjeant Major to go to work on the parade with his hand-cuffs on one hand lln May last he had signed a paper, at the request of Captain Mason, which was similar to that sign e d by W oo d, w i t h the addition, that he, witness, deserved all the punishm ent b e h a d received ! The President (Colonel HUNTER) here observed, that he thought sufficient cases had been adduced in support of this charge ; that he therefore deemed it useless for the prosecutor to adduce any other case, except there mht be some shade of difference. The JUDGE ADVOCATE remarked, that it ought to be left completely to the discretion of the prosecutor as to the number of cases he would adduce ; and it would afterwards be for the Court to decide whether they were" contrary to the articlesand custom of war." The PRESIDENT begged to be understood, that he meetly observed what he bad, to direct the judgment of the prosecutor. George Hughes, Serjeant Major in the Tower Hamlets, deposed, that he put James Hinton in the wire guard-room in pursuance of a General O r d er which he receive d from his Commanding Officer, to confine all those who might absent themselves from, or be too late for parade. George Caviller deposed, that be was billed up is the gore guard-room last winter, by Captain Mason's (seders, and was confined during the space of five days, and was very ill while there, though while under such arrest he had been compelled to mount guard, ill as he was. He got leave to go to the hospit a l, and w h en he returned, he was again put under confinement.— He knew it was from Captain Mason's orders, as he heard them given by him. The offence was, witness was very warm one morning when going on parade, and the perspiration under his arms was such that it caused his firelock to rust, and for that Mason ordered him to be billed up, and set down for double drills ! This confinement caused him to be unwell, and he told Lieut. Hubbard that his illness was owing to 'having been billed up. Here closed the fourth charge, when the Court en tered on the fifth, which was for— " Violently striking with his cane, on or about the 15th June, I$Q7, John R,nding, a private in the ild company (when under am), the bead of which entered his cap about three inches, and . could-nor be taken out, b u t with force ; li kewise striking William Blunt, a private in the Grenadier Company, on or about the 24th of November, 1809; as well as William Wright, of the 3d Com pany, on or about the 19 t h of J anuary , 1810, contrary to his Majesty's Orders. " The prosecutor, in support of his fourth charge, Ihe JUD GE A DVOCATE i n f ormed the Court, that by recalled Serjeant David Wood, who admitted that he the 126th Section of the Mutiny Act, they could not signed a paper in the presence of Captain Mason and take cognizance of the case of John Reading, the other Officers, but lie did not remember the contents. "I violently striking" being alledged to have taken The paper was produced, and he acknowledged the place on the 15th of June, 1807, more than three years signature at the bottom to be his; but said, that when prior to the i ssu i ng of his Majesty' s warrant , d ated he thought something m us t w ere s h ewn , to prove t h at i t could not have been en \he signed it there was not so much written as n o w t he 17 t h o f J u l y , 1810, un l ess some sufficient cause appeared to be on it • have been added. The contents were, that he never quired into before. and by unfortunate laterut ?harm, answered However, he corrected himself, and said Not Guilty. The prosecutor then called Captain Millar, Pay master of the 2d Regiment of Tower Hamlets Mi litia, who deposed that the bounties allowed by Go vernment for recruits were of two descriptions : first, to those who enlisted out of the Local Militia, who received 48. 85. ; and to those who were raw recruits, 410. 10s. Captain Mason informed witness subse quently to September, 1809, that he was indebted to the public a balance remaining on his account for re cruits, &c. after which he gave to witness a statement of balance in his hands down to the time the recruit ing ceased. This statement was delivered long after September, 1809, though witness could not tell the precise period. Witness never received actual money on account of those recruits who had deserted before ' their month expired, which entitled them to their full bounty-money. Michael Downs was enlisted, and shortly afterwards deserted, but could not tell the time when the latter circumstance took place, not hav ing expected to b e ca ll e d as a w i tness , h e did not pre pare himself with his papers. On his being cross-examined by Captain Mason, he said that the recruiting service ended in July, 1810, and that he received the statement of Captain Mason's recruiting account nearly about the time specified for its delivery. There was an account between witness, the Paymaster, and Captain Mason, respecting .re cruits, owing to the delay of Government in issuing money for the recruiting service, and Captain Mason was considerably in advance to the public on this ac count. One hundred and forty recruits had been en listed, for which Government had been charged u wards of 41000. --- Shepherd, a private in the same regiment, was then called. He had been Clerk to the Paymas ter from 1806 to July 1810, and then resigned. He had never furnished Richard Throp, the prosecutor, with any extracts from the Paymaster's books. [[Here some papers, giving an account of men who had been enlisted, and had a few days after such en listment deserted, and for whom full bounty had been charged, were produced.] The witness admitted them to be his hand-writing, copied from his own private papers; and in supply ing those accounts, he did not conceive that he was guilty of a breach of trust, because they contained facts that were generally known in the regiment.— Mr. John Mark then produced the regiment's levy accounts from the War-Office, from which it appeared that Michael Downs, who had enlisted on the ISth October, 1809, had deserted on the 19th of the same month, and for whom Government had been charted the full bounty of 410. 10s. though Downs having deserted within the month was not entitled to it.— The name of Thomas Ward, which appeared in the regiment's books, was next searched for in the Go vernment accounts ; but the name of a Janet Ward could only be found, and the prosecutor afterwards abandoned this part of the charge. Captain Robinson, one of the Court, here observed, that not one half of the men who joined a regiment by enlistment stopped the month which was prescribed by law, before they were entitled to the full bounty money. Here the first charge closed. On the second charge James Harrison was called. He had paid Serjeant Baker 01. 10s. some time in last September, to obtain his discharge, and one Ca vilier was appointed as his substitute. Serjeant Baker deposed, that he received the above mentioned sum, and paid it to Captain Mason. Ca vilier was the substitute for Harrison. George Cavilier said he received from Captain Mason on enlisting into the Tower Hamlets, as a substitute for Harrison. James Greenway then proved, that he received only £B.Bs. bounty, though a raw recruit. But his name appeared on the books as Joists Greenway ; and no other Greenway being in the regiment, the Court de termined to consider him as the person meant. It ap peared that 410. 10s. was charged to Government for this man, as well as for Samuel Groves, who only received 48. Bs. After a Court of Enquiry, which was held some short time since at the instigation of Richard Throp, the present prosecutor, and out of which enquiry the present Court Martial arose, Capt. Mason, it appear. ed, delivered an amended account to the Paymaster Millar, accounting for errors in the bounties given to certain men, to the amount of 4201. Here closed the second charge; and on the third charge Thomas Brent was called. He had worked as cooper for Captain Mason very often within the last two years, working on those days on which he ought to have mounted guard, but got excused from that duty from the circumstance of working for Capt. Ma son. For such work he never received any reward, other than being excused from mounting guard when appointed. In his cross-examination, he admitted that he had of late conceived Capt. Mason's conduct towards the soldiers as harsh, cruel, and severe. Here ended the third charge. On the fourth, Da vid Wood was called. He was a Serjeant in the Ist: company ; while marching, he once got his foot in a bole in the ground, which caused him to stumble— when Capt. Mason came up to him and hit witness so hard with his cane as to knock him down ! This blow stunned witness so much, that he scarcely knew where he was or what he did; but Capt. M. ordered him immediately to take the command of a division, .or he would put him in the guard-room. After this witness was very unwell, nor was he now recovered, and he could attribete such illness to nothing else but 'the blow he received just under his lower rib s from Capt. M. as he had always before been a hearty man. Yesterday the General Court Martial re-assembled at Chelsea. 'HIE ARMY, -MAATIAL, CHELSEA HOSPITAL ‘-• the charges against Captain Is the evidence adduced in CCM T • • i-., vest day gave e following m: f ason We Mason. support of Captain was asked, whether he was guilty of not guilty of the charges preferred against_ him, . . Mr. Ilmmt, Codoelfdt the ptitiseetttioff, skinfitied that the Act was against the proseentor, and accord ingly consented to wave this part of the charge. William Blunt, a drummer, Oras then called. Ori or about the 14th of November last, Captaio M gave witness "11 drive on the elbow," while in the act of moving a table, calling him at the um. time a "lazy rascal!' Witness was then very and from great weakness totild scarcely move the Lible. This witness, too, had signed a paper, tom after the Court of Inquiry, saying lie did nut intend to Facer any charges against Captain Mason, and which piper had been produced to him by Captain Mason fot sig. nature. William Wright, named in the thatge, deposed, that Captain Mason struck him on the right side of the head with his sheathed sword, so violently as to cause great pain in the head, and to knock off his cap. He had not complained of this conduct, not had he, ever been advised to complain of it, Indeed every witness invariably deposed to the same effect. This witness had, at the instigation of Captain Mason, signed a paper similar to that signed by Wood and the other, about the 10th of May last. Witness never had any conversation with 'Trop on this subject:— The cause of Captain Mason's conduct was, that witness was rather late on parade, and when he came Captain M. said, a , D--ti your blood !" and followed this anathema with the blow, after which he told witness to go to his company, but before he got ,there. A serjeant went after him and took him to the guardroom ; he did not complain, because he had nu opportunity at that time, having been immediately billed up. Here closed the fifth and last charge. and Captain Mason having been asked when he should be ready to go on his defence, answered to-morrow (this day) till when the Court adjourned. BRIGHTON, AtiOUST U. The South Cl mcestcr Mil tia wire formed in the Barrack-yard this morning, and the sentences on the Serjeant-Major, the Serjeant of the Guard, two CA.- porals, and eighteen privates, for refusing to obey Lieutenants Bubb and Wilson, when ordered to take the Serjeant Major ints custody for disrespectful con• duct to them, and which had occupied the atten tion of a Regimental Court Martial fur two days, were stated, and are as under: Serjeant•Major Watkins—To be degraded to the ranks, and to receive 300 lashes.

Lieutenant-Colonel °Lazy pointed out the nature of the crimes committed in a forcible and feeling manner, and, in consequence of the recommendations to the mercy of the Court, he remitted the severe parts of the awarded punishments, that is to say. the dog. ging. The Serjeants and Corporals, therefore, were degraded to the ranks merely, and the eighteen pri vates, for that time, forgiven. The Local Militia for the Eastern Division of this County, according to the present order. are to be mustered here on the 17th of September, unless* countermand should previously appear, and which it is generally hoped will be the case, or inconve nience must be exp er ie nce d among the f r a e rv at esters, as 'harvest home cannot be celebrated, generally sp.alsf ing, prior to that time, and the greater part of the dividuals belonging, to this corps, we believe, are at this moment actively, and, we may add, most use. fully employed in the fields ; and, if they can be per mitted, will so continue to be, from the backwardness of the crops, until the end of September at nearest. Monday, the 4th battalion of the Royals arrived at Leith, in three smacks. As Colonel WALSH was passing through the town of Guildford, in a gig, on Tuesday, the horse took . fright, and threw the Colonel from his seat on the stones, by which he was so much bruised, that he died on the following day. He was a Gentkrean much respected.
