The TENTH' 1111.5 - SARS god CORNET BATTIER. In consequence of the statement of Cornet Haag, re-! specting his treatment whilst in the kWh, the Marquis of Londonderry, Colo•-el of the Regiment, addressed his Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief on the subject, which produced the following official communication from the Military Secretary : TO LIEUTENANT-GENERAL THE MARQUIS OF LONDONI/ERRY, (Core.) MY Loan, Uone Guards, March 2 2, 1 824 - I have had the honour to receive, tied ley before the Commander. in-Chief, your lertiship'g letter of the 11th instant, and I am di rected to say. that big Ronal Highs.'" is not surprised that the 1 statement ot Mr. Battier, wnieb appeared is several ['spent, should have filled you • ith ariettiohment and indignation. Hi. Royal Highness reiniote, however. that your Lonlship's let. tel offers to him the opportunity of muting some observations upon that statement, and of coaveying to at, the auch use as you may thick tit to make of it, los %kir of Mr. Rattier's arent proceed. 1 ings, anti I will endeavour in execute his Rand Higlieess's hinnies tions to that effect as briefly as the subjtet will admit, and without entering i n to any murrrres r y detail. Your Lordship is aware. that when Mr. Bartley applied for the t exchange to the 11th ilesetrit, he produe-d testimonials of his pre. vious conduct in the 3th Dragoon Omsds, and the 13th Boners, which were wandered by his Royal' Hirt:tees perfeetiv re-isfactory. These testimonials were Piped by LientecantsCetonal Gordon. of ' the bah lhagoon Unar.oe, Colonel Murray. sad Lieut.-CIA II of the 111th Hussars, and they spoke. ait4oat ~core, of Isis qua ' lifiattions as an officer and a gentleman. Upon his joining the lthh Hussars, he ciperienced a reception and a treatment front the officers forming the mess of thy corps, which neither his apparent incapacity and unfitness fer the duty of a! reginitne of cavalry, taw any el:caption !aim, to h.s manner ate[ tip. 1 pearance could justify, and which acre. nuron his representation, censured in the ectongtet terms by the Coamitander-in-ehief, and drew upon those coneerned the expression of his Royal Highness's ! unqualified disapprobation . The communication upon this subject was made to Lord Comberinern, who was de sitcd to reprimand the ! officers, and to admonish them not to persist in a course which would expose them to marks of more serious displeasure. Before, however. my letter reached Lord Combenuere, the affi. cm concerned had been convinced of the impropriety of their con duct, and had acknowledged their error t and although they may not have felt inclined to place themselves upon a footing of easy or familiar intercoutve with :Ur. Battier, it does not eppear that they, ea a body, or as individuals, sebgequently aliimied to hint any eause of complaint width °Dahl warrant further remonstrance, or call for notice lutist higher authoeity, or which could provoke bitty to " personal wiliness." On the contrary. sit Colgtihoun Gnat stated, that Mr. Battier acquainted him that he and his friends were satisfied with the manner is which his representations had been met, and the whole affair arranged s ith his brother officers. Reports were, however, nude by Colonel Sir George Quentin, through Lord Ceinhermere and Sir Colquhoun Grant, of Ms. Bat tier's utter unfitness for the duties of a cavalry officer, and of the improbability of his ever being sufficieraly improved, by drill or instruction, to become capable of doing justice to his situation, or to the regiment. These representations were afterwards confirmed by a special report from Sit C. Grant. Mr. Battier was, in consequence, told, by order of his Royal Highness, that he had better remove front the Ilith Humus, by miring to haft'-Cap ,or (as there was nothing in the reports made which could affect his character tea Gentleman), with the option of 'purchasing a half-pay Lieutenancy of infantry, whenever an op. portunity should offer. To this Mr. Battier subscribed, and it was clearly understood that be should quit a regiment and a branch of the service for which he had been proved, and, its fact, had acknowledged himself to be unfit, and in which he never would have been replaced, if his Royal Highness had not been misled by the testimonial" of his previous commanding officers. Thus stood manna until the period of your Lordship's visit to your regiment, and hoed Conibermeteg review of it. Upon the occasion of the inspection of the regiment by Sir Col quhoun Great, on the 19th of November, Mr. Battier conveyed, through Litetenant-Colom.l Taylor, his earnest entreaty to Sir Col qtthoun Gram, that be would not expose his innompeteney by ex hibiting him in the third dam of riding drill, and he again no:- knowledgcl his unfitness for the situation he held. Sir Colgilhoun Grant acquiesced in his request , and told him, in the presence of Sir George Quentin a-d Lieutenant. Colonel Taylor, that as be could net appear at the review, he would give him leave of absence, of which lie might instantly at-nil himself; Mr. list. tier seating at the same time that it would be unpleasant to him. under these ci. - eurnstances, to remain with the regiment, and Sir Colquboun Grunt, knowing that 31r. Battier was to be removed from the 10th Ilan:tea, concluded that he wowed at once take his leave—an impression which was confirmed by 31r. Baffler's tearing the barracks in plain clothes. and ceasing to do any duty, or to appear in uniffron, according to regulation. Upon the 24t' November. when your Lordship inspected the regiment in the morning, Mr. Battier did tan appear, and was re ported absent on leave, the official notification having been con veyed to him on the 23d, the lease having been given verbally by Sir Colquhoua Grant from the 19th. In the evening of the 24th, when your Lordship dined at the mess, Mr. Battier thought fit Mau) to make his appearance as an officer of the corps, and upon this occasion, the ciremnstaneui ac. cuffed which form the subject of Mr. Battier 's letter to me of the 7th December, whieh he has published. Upon receiving this letter, the Commander-in-ehiel ordered me to desire teed Combermere to call upon Sir Geroge Quentin for his reply to 3lr. Battier's complaint . and not being satig fi eal with the explanation therein given, he directed me subsequently to write to your lords h ip, and to express his "'uprise and regret that you should, by your proceeding on the 24111 November, have appeared to sanction, and have actualiy sanctioned, a preview's course of conduct on the part of the officers of your regiment which had incurred his Royal Highness's .displeasure, and had been marked by the exprrosion of his serious disapprobation. Your Lorship's reply stated your enti.e ignorance of the proceed. intro which had incurred his Rona Highness's displeasure, and of the reproof conveyed to the Clifioars concerned; it denied many of Mr. Battier's% assertiong, newt porticahwiv that which stated dust you had tier:stencil to take steps with his !royal II ighnegit, the el. feet of a inch would be .1 serimuly to injure hi. prospects in the .Irmy, if he did not retire from the Mess, and it assigned, as a reason for your proceeding, the feet previously aimed to you by Sir ehltiehoun Grant, that he had five dale before given to Mr. Battier leave to quit the Regiment, of which Mr. Battier had actually availed himself by not attending any duty since the 19th, your im. recision (as well as Sir eolgtihoun errant 's) being that he had left the head-quarters of the regiment. This statement of your Lord ship's is corroborated by lair George Quentin, who was present at your interview with Mr. Battier on the '2 Ithi .......... His Royal Highness ordered me, in reply, to assure you that your explanation was satisfactory, and to censure in strong terms the conduct of sir George Quentin, in omitting to apprise you of what had posses', and in suffering you to remain in ignorance of it when you desired him to speak to 31r. Battier, and to prevent his dining at the Mesa, adding, that his Royal Highness was confident that if you had been du ly apprised of the previous occurrences, and of his Royal Highness's view of their, you would, in spite of Mr. Battier's ill-judged and ill.timod appearance at the Mess. have felt anxious to concur with his Royal Highness in checking proceedings inconsistent with the principles of subordination, and the acknowirdipal rule* of society, which therefore his Royal Highness must condemn wherever they occur, and in maintatnow that respect for superior authority, of which some Officers of the Tenth had ',cat sight in the adoption of a litre of conduct this: had drawn upo.t them a reproof of which they had acknowledg.l the justice.. Haring given this general statement of the circumstances. as detived troll: the official documents in my possession, I shall pros teed, in obeiti.:nce to his Royal Rights's:Vs commends. to snake sonic observations upon Mr. Uattier's statement, which iv are ape peal to the feelings of the army and the public against the Com mar.der.in.Chief, whom he most unjustly and incorrectly accuses of having disregarded his complaints. co: less than it is a lard upon your Lordship, and upon the regimen, from which h e has ret i r ed, for the arownd purpose of resorting to such a course. The first parts of it are hardly deserving of comae:it. Mr. Rattier complains that the Comma:lcier-in-Chief had in private visited the conduct of the officers of the inth with his censure and reprimand, '• but had cot been pleased to publish throughout the Army any manifestations of this displessure."—llis Royal Highness conceives that he may sec his discretion in Coe manner of noticing ally representation or appeal mad; to hint s:.t: ti.at upon this occasion he adopted the course hest suited t., ,:iTatin stanct.s, such as indeed did produce the desired result. Ls muse appear from the statement of facts I have given, and flu:- tier's own admission. Mr. Battier states, that while the Akers of the 10:h placed him in Coventry, and withhtkl from him the marks of courtesy, which, in civilized society, arc considered doe to n gentleman and a stranger, each member of the corps observed the cautious policy of shunning all risk or personal Ile adm;is this. iciprep , cs the fceliog under let!ch Le quitted the corps--a feeling of decided hostility—a feeling which leads him, when he had crossed t'se water, and as soon as he had ceased to bear a commission in it, to insult and defy, not one member of it, 'but the whole corps indiecriminately ; and yet this individual, who would seem, from his own account, to have courted personal col lision," and who now discovers grounds for insulting a whole corps !which had been denied to hint by " the cautious policy of each I member of it," did not hesitate, very unnecessarily and very indis- I evenly circumstanced as he was, to appear at the mess, after leave of absence had been given to him in consequence of his entreaty to !Sir Colmthoun Grant that he might not he exposed . to ridicule. It is reasonable to ask, what could be Mr. Battier's motive for appearing . at the Mega at each a moment, and with feelings such as he avows in his published st a tement ? \ Vete his intentions amicable lor hostile? If amicable, his subsequent invectives would betray strange inconsistency . ; if hostile, ar.d supposed to he so from any !previous expression in other qnarters, of those sentiments now pub hilted, 14 better justification could be fouLd for your lordship's ex elusion of him from the circle to which be sought admission. After these remarks, his Royal Highness considers it wholly un necessary to notice the general reflections with which Mr. Battier has favoured the corps of officers. I proceed to 31r. Ilatticr's continents upon the Commander-in- Chief's conduct. Ile states that, "in coosequence of your Lord. ship reporting him unacquainted with his duty, and unfit for cavalry service, his Royal Highness was pleased to take no notice I of lint appeal, further than allowing him to purchase a half-pay ' Lieutenancy of the Ilth Dragoons." I As .Mr. ;tattier thought ht to publish, without any previous pee -1 mission obtained from his Royal Highness, my letter of the 17th February, which acquaints him that hts Royal Highness had more than once expressed his disapprobation of the conduct observed to wards him by sons Officers of the 10th Homers, it may be pre owned that it was not from delicacy or discretion that he abstained from publishing also my reply to his letter of tile 7th December, of I which I now subjoin a copy, tor your lordship's information, and from which it will appear that Mr. Battier has taken care to give to the public so much only Its would serve his own purpose, and to withhold Ow reasons assigned by his 'loyal Highness for not no.. dicing further what had passed. I am directed to add that, however disposed to admit that Mr. Bonier had expenenctd a treatment, while a Member of the 10th Hussars, which was calculated to produce much soreness of feeling; and however willing to allow for the impression under which he quitted the corps, and even for the impression he may have enter , mined that his complaints had not met with the attention to which ! be considered them entitled,and which was in fact shewn to them— Mr. Battier's publication &limited to his Royal Highness to be so gross a breach of discipline, that his first intention was to have recommended to his Majesty that he should be dismissed from the 'service; and I was therefore ordered, on the 13th Inst. to write to him, and to desire he would state whether he was the author of it ? But as thik publication, independently of the insult offered to your Lordship, his late Colonel, and to the whole corps, contained also comments upon Lis Royal Highness's conduct, which might he pros. nmed to be personally offensive to him.. his Royal Highness has abstained from following a conrse which a sense of duty to the service would have otherwise prescribed, lest it might be supposed that he had been influenced by feelings of personal irritation to wards an unfortunate and misguided individuaL I am directed further to say, that his Royal Highness cannot sanction your Lordship, or the Officers of your regiment, taking any notice of Mr. Llattior's statement ; and to repeat, that you may m,ke free use of this letter and the inclosure. 41;ve;A;. - -- (Signed) H.

This was an indictment againit the defendants, Colliugbourne, Atkins, and Humphreys, for a riot and assault at Wandsworth, on the 30th June last. Mr. Gurney and Mr. Broderick conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Adolphus and Mr. Thessiger the defence. The prosecutor was a baker named Woodward, residing at Wandsworth; and the defendant, Collingbounse, was head con stable of the same place ; the other defendants were inhabitants of the same town. On the 30tI June there had been a wedding be tween two people in low life, in Mr. Woodward's neighbourhood, and in the evening they were serenaded by some of the townspeople by what is called •'rough music," which was played with tin-ket tles and marrow bones and cleavers. A crowd was collected, and no inconsiderable noise produced. In the wantonness of the occa sion, some of the mob attacked the prosecutor's house, and beat the door with brick-bats and stones. The prosecutor came out and seized the defendants. Atkins and Hughes also were very active in the rift, and had rattled atones in the prosecutor's face. A constable was sent for, and these persons were carried prisoners into the prosecu tor's house, but afterwards liberated by the constable, on their promise to appear next morning before the 31aglatratea. During these proceedings, it was alleged that the defendant, Collingwcod, between whom and the prosecutor there had been a coolness, made his appearance, fomented the riot, and abused the prosecutor in the most offensive terms. Mutual recriminations followed, but in the result the mob dispersed, and quietness was restored. On the part o the defendants. witnesses were called, to prove that from first to ISM Mr. Coilingbourne conducted himself with great propriety, and had endeavoured to allay instead of COCOU• rage the not. The evidence for Collingboume completely outweighing that against him, Mr. Gurney mad lie should withdraw the case against him. In the result, Collingbourtse was acquitted, and the other defen dants convicted, and dt•charged upon their own reeognisances, to be of good behaviour in future. . _ . .

RH sell and flwn,cae, convicted of an attack upon the police at Glanashane, county of Limerick, have been pardoned on pleading G uilty, In Tipperary. a policeman has been convicted of murder, At Mary borotigh, ax persons were charged with the murder of Mtllaniel, and all found guilty of Manslaughter, three of whom were sentenced to transportation for life. The county of Westmeath have resolved to apply for the ('onstabulary Act. The western part of this county is to he put under tie operation of the Peace Preservation ItilL—One thing England will learn from thew trials (we do not, unfortunately, want the infermation;, is thelittle apparent value set upon the lire of a human creature in Ireland. The Hisser; of Munster shows how little the peasantry regard the Sixth Com-1 mantimeot. The history of Ulster shows that, under dissimilar circumstances, the Orangemen are equally inditerent; and the trials of the police for this most heinous of crimes, prove clearly that they are equally partakers of the moral contagion which has been spread through the country. Our state, in this respect, is frightful. One benefit, however, has arisee—that, however the guilty Orange. man or the guilty policeman has escaped hitherto with comparauve slight punishment,' the guilty Catholic peasant has uniformly expiated his crime by suffering the utmost penalty of the law.— &slabs Eveithyr Pori. HEREFCRD Assizes.—Seventeen causes were entered,l and only one was turned over to the Summer Assizes. A cause, in which John Rees Bishop, Esq. of Dolegarreg, Carrnarthenshire,l was plaintiff, and Walter Rice, Esq. of I.lwyn.y.brain, in the same county, wns defendant, excited much interest. The trial cod', menced on Thursday morning, before Mr. Justice Park and a Special Jury, and continued until half-past one on Friday morning, when the Court adjourned till nine thy same morning, and the yen. diet was no! delivered till about two in the afternoon. The plaintiff had been indicted for perjury, alleged to have been committed by him in an aliidavit in the Court of King's Bench. and it came on for trial at the kat Spring Assiut, when he was aqui:led in con sequence of a variance; and he brought this action for a malicious prosecution, and obtained a verdict, 1,0001. damages.—Glotteerter L _ _ _ M r ler no ty ArclDEww.We have seldom the mourn ful task to record so melancholy an accident as happened in our vicini. ty last week.

COURT OF CHANCERY, TuraDair, MAICU 30. lg THE MATTER or LORD CADOGAW. Mr. WI Lsost begged to call his Lordship's attention to this cause, which he would not now have done, but that the matter was of considerable importance, and pressed very much. It would be in the recollection of his Lordship, that the case had been referred to the Master, to inquire whether it would not be for the benefit of the lunatic's estate to let certain property, situate at Chelsea, and to appoint a receiver of the rents and profits of the estate ? That reference had been made, and the Master had reported ; and what he had now to ask for was, that his Lordship would be pleased to confimi that Report. The LORD elIANC=ll—Let the Retort be confirmed. POLICE. GUI LDHALL. NEW METHOD TO ENFORCE THE onsrivawcr OF Ms. AIARTIN . R ACT-A sort of a general meeting of drovers, foe there were ten or a dozen of them assembled, tools place yesttriiay, at this Jtistice.room, in consequence of Mr. Martin's Smithlol inspector having given them notice that if they did not attend to witness the Magistrate's feeling upon the ill treatment of cattle, and take warning by the example that would be then made of two 'offenders of this description, he would apply to the Aidernian for a summons against the absentees, they each having committed acts that had rendered them liable to the penalties of the law. j Upon the case of the defendants. Thomas Wright, the drover, who holds the badge 541, and Robert Read, the wearer of 510, 1 being called, Wieder, the inspector, stated, that the former had been guilty of great inhumanity towards a sheep, and the latter towards some bullocks, in Smithfield market, on Monday week, but they had since expressed, and he believed really felt, much contrition for their misconduct; and he therefore begged they might be dis charged with an admonition, which he trusted would prove see' viceable to a number of the fraternity now present. M-. Alderman Iltacti said, as the case was not pressed against the defendants,he should dismiss them; but he energetically de. dared, that if ever an instance of wanton cruelty to poor animals was proved before him, such was his detestation of the offence, that he would inflict the highest penalty the law permitted him to do. Those for whom this notification was intended seemed quite awe-stricken with the extreme earnestness manifested by the , Wor hr . Alderman. CORONER'S INQUEST. SHOCK INO SUICIDE. Yesterday an inquisition wu held before Tttouss BTiarrwo, Eaq. Coroner, at the Coach and Horses public•bouse, Bryanstnne street, Portman square, on the body of John Hill, livery-stable keeper, of Oxford-street. A moat respectable Jury was imFan nelled. Mr. Francis Williams, assistant to Mr. Lightfoot, surgeon, of Oxford -street, stated, that he was called, on Monday last, - between twelve and one o'clock, to the yard of the deceased, where he found hi m on his back in a until room, with his throat cut and a halter round his neck. lie was quite dead, and appeared to have been so for a long time. The rope that was round hit neck way in the incision in his throat. _ - Coroner—Was there any implement near him ? AVitnesr—Yes, two razors. Coroner—Do you think that the incision in his throat by the razor was the cause of his death, or strangulation ? Il'imess—No, I do not think the incision made by the razor could have caused death; but I believe it was by strangulation. The rope was in the wound. Foreman—Are you certain that it was the pressure of the rope, and not the wound made by the razor, that was the cause of his death ? Witness —Yea, certainly. John Stone, servant to .31r. Walker, whose horses stand at lirery at the stable of the deceased, stated, that he knew but little of the deceased. On Monday he went up to the hay-loft for some chaff, and, on going near to a small room, he saw a man hanging to a beam. W imam immediately ran for the son of the hostler, and told him that a man was hanging in the little room in the hay-loft. Ile , tame directly, and said — "My God, that is Mr. 11111 ." 1 then gave alarm to other persons in the yard, who came up in the loft. Coroner—Was the deceased hanging all the time? Witnewa—Ves, Sir. By the Foreman—Why did you not cut him down ? Witness-1 was so alarmed I did not know what I did. I left the loft and several persons in it. Benjamin Julian, servant to Mr. Hill, stated, that he saw the deceased twice on Monday morning; did not see the deceased go up into the hay-loft. Coroner—Did you ob.erve any thing particular lately in the conduct of the deceased ? IVitness—Yes ; he seemed in a low desponding state for the last tan days. Did not know any reason. Wee called by Stone, the last wetness, when he ran up stairs and held the deceased in his arms, whilst the coachman of Mrs. Debay untied the rope hum the beam. Coroner—Did you unlock the rope when the dammed was taken down ? Witness—No ; not until the doctor came, which was about ten minutes. . _ Coroner—Wu the body warm or cold when taken down ? Witness--Quite cold. Coroner, to 3lr. Williams—Was the windpipe injured? Mr. Williams—No; it was a very long incision, but the jugular and windpipe remained uninjured. Robert Roberts, head hostr to the deceased, stated that he saw him on the morning of the 29th, in his parlour. Coroner—Was he indisposed ? M'ittless-1 thought him to be in a very desponding state, and he had been so for more than a week. Was with him on Sunday even. tag last. His conversation was desponding, or rather in a state of distraction. Ile walked about the room muttering to himself. I begged of him to be more composed. Juror—Has any misfortune happened to the deceased, to cause any alteration in his conduct ? 11' itness—Not to my knowledge. Coroner—Do you think the deceased was in a state of derange. ment at the time of committing this lamentable act Witness—l have no doubt of it.ficim his conduct. lie frequently wrung his hands, and seemed in great agony. Juror—Do you think that the deceased's being obliged to leave the vard was the cause of his dzspoodency ? Witness—l do. ....-- Hannah Amok!, housekeeper to the deceased about eight years, stated the deceased had been in a low state of mind for some time. Witness believed the deceased to be deranged; he used to walk about the house wishing some person to shoot him. The deceased was of very amtable manners, and much respected by all that knew him. The Jury, after viewing the body, returned their verdict," That the deceased committed the horrid act, being at that time in a state of ternporarary derangement." Lord Carrington accidentally slipped into a rapid stream near Wendover, Bucks, on Wednesday last, but was fortunately rescued by sonic friends, who accompanied him in his walk. The daughter of a Baronet, whose infidelity to her hus band had caused her to be abandoned by her family, attempted suicide on Wednesday, on her father continuing to refuse her his Protection. SHOCKING ACCIDENT.—Another instance of the danger arising from suffering loaded fire-arms to be within the reach of young persons, occurred nn Saturday evening last, at Mr. Gib , Rollestone Farm, 31arypole-head, near this city, where an eporemice boy being in the act of snapping a pistol, not knowing it to be loaded, discharged the contents in the oceiput, m back part of the head, of the servant man, who was standing by. Mr. Land, surgeon, of St. Sidwell's. was immediately sent for, who succeeded in extracting upwards of thirty large shots from the wound, and under whose excellent care and treatment. we are happy to find, great hopes are entertained of the poor fellow's recovery. It is re markable, that the unfortunate sufferer was about to be married the following day.—Lifter Paper of Friday. s.—A fire broke out yesterday morning, at a quarter before live o'clock. at the house of Mr. Thrum, Attorney, No. 13, t bok's-cou rt, Carey-street. which totally consumed the building, and the adjoining house, No. I.?, belonging to Mr. Blake. It has also daataged the backs of two other houses, in Portugal-street. The confusion that reigned for some time was indescribable. No lives rye lost : how the fire originated is not known, but it was first dis covered in the back parlour.—Another fire brokaout this morning, at one o'clock. at a public-house, the sign of the City of Rotterdam, Catherine's -street, East Smithfield, which consumed the whole of the interior of the budding. St:ICH/E.—Tuesday night, between eleven and twelve o'clock, a female threw herself off the north end of Waterloo. bridge. A waterman who was on the River at the time, picked up a Leghorn bonnet, but the body of the unfortunate woman has not yet been found.—And yesterday morning a geoteel-looking young man, apparently in great distress of mind, had gdt over the balus trades of the bridge, and was about to throw himself of. but was prevented by some gentlemen who were passing at the time. It appeals that the same individual has betbre male a similar at- tZ•inpt. Juhn Castle, under sentence of death in Newgate, and ordered for execution on Friday next, for cutting and wounding his Captain, has been spited during his Majesty% pleasure. Bt.Lt...BAITING.—Tho. Hon. hletnhcr t'or Galway, it should seem, has it in contemplation to bring his Act into opera tion against bull-baiting. For this purpose a question has been raised, whether, atter the particular enumeration of cattle made ffic by the Act, the words " other cattle" aresuient to include the bull, who is not specifically named ; and on the point a case has been submitted to the A itoeney r tleneral and Mr. Coneys. both of whom have given it as their opinion that the words " other cattle" are sufficient to include the bull, though not specifically named in the .%ct. • Lewisam, Meth m at h , 18 , 4. 13t1,—A most sfeocking event occurr e d here last nigh t , 4 . isas caused a great and intense feeling throughout this nei g h._ head; sad as. the negligence of the watchme n o f the plum ca.-7 pI think you will agree with me, that it sho u ld b e made pok operate as a future warning.
