The remainder of that flue regiment remains at Jamaica. When the Case, WV Jamaica, the whole Island was under martial law, the troops in perk& health, and the highest spirits, ready to meet the enemy should they have the tc:nerity to attack them. Liovr ever, upon that head, they were not very appre hensive. A fleet of very large transports, consisting of up wards of 50 sail, under convoy of the Jana fri;tate. of 40 g uns, arrived yesterday off this bark or, belore a steady breeze from the S.W.

The latter vessel parted from the fleet upon the 13th last, on the Banks of Newfoundland, in thick blowing weather.

On Wednesday, the 19th December last, at nig.. was launched, from the Dock Yard, at Bombay, a beautiful frigate, named the Pitt, being the first eve: built in India, for His MAJESTY'S service ; between eleven and twelve o'clock, on the appointed signal being given, she moved majestically into the water, amidst the acclamations of a gn•.rt conconse of specta:ors, and unJer a salute from the saluting battery. From the stillness oo the night, and the ship being finely illuminated. the whole effect was uncommonly grand. It may he remarked, as rather an amusing coincidence of circumstances, that Captain Vasil om, and the whole crew of the Foss w•i,ich is now repairing in Dock, has bees transit' ted to the new launched iiisate the Pitt. . . .

The Plaintiff and M•94e.ton refused to aft in that capacity, and no appllment having ac cordingly been returned to the Defendant, within the time limited by the statute, the Defendant, on the I I th of April last, entered into the denomination of Lower Kilbride, and there seized, 'as a distress, the Plaintiff's cattle, whin he sold by public CAul in the next market town, a. the entire cess laid by the Treasurer's warrant ou that denomination, with tees.—For this seizure the Plaintiff brought this anion. After much ability and ingenuity, displayed by Counsel on both sides, and after an able charge from the Learned Judge who presided, who took occa sion to observe, that the Treastun had not any authority to vary the plan always adhered to in issu ing his warrant, conforming to the convoy Wok, and, in particular, under such circumstances as the present, where that variance •.e.as calculated to de feat the provisions of th: statute, for a due and equal assessment, according to the quantity and quality of the denomination of land to be asse.sed ; the Jury found a verdict for the Plantif, for 50: da mages, and 6d. co; , s.

A poor man, of the name of Scum. es, from Newchurch in Rossentiale, recovered 2001. da mages, against two sheriff's officers and others, for di.training unlawfully, at the late Lancaster As sizes. The plaintiff, his wife, and children, had been used most cruelly. On Tuesday last, Dame ARTON, who is in the one hundredth year of her age, joined with other wo men in shearing oats in the new incloture at Chapel Atte; ton, near this town, and, notwithstanding her advanced age, she performed her work to the ad miration of numerous speaators.
