This was acceded to, on condition that Mr. Boxer should give a guarantee for the due payment of the money.:Mr. Boxer accordingly gave the guarantee in question, by which he undertook in case of default made by Baillie in payment, either to pay the money himself, or to procure the caption of Bailey under a writ of ca. sa. to be issued on the judgment entered upon the warrant of attorney. The money not being paid by Bailey, and the terms of the guarantee not complied with on the part of Mr. Boxer, the present action was brought. The defence attempted to be set up was that Bailey might have been taken under the ca. sa. if due diligence had been used on the part of the plain- ' tiff.—A verdict was taken for the plaintiff for 481.1 Is.

HULL MARKET.—Oct. 20. The supply of Wheat from the farmers to this day's market has been to a moderate extent, and the millers se lected the best runs at last week's prices, while the soft and ordinary qualities, of which the mijority of the sup ply consisted, were scarcely saleable. Old Wheats meet a very slow sale at a moderation of Is. per quarter on the best runs, the middling qualities of which are for the pre sent neglected. Oats and I3eans still continue in very li mited demand, and is the little business doing in either article, late prices are hardly supported. There was a parcel of Norfolk Barley shown, which was much dis coloured ; 335. per quarter was demanded for it, but we did not hear of any sale being effected. Rapeseed and Linseed are both firm at late prices; and good parcels of the latter rather exceed our quotations. Wheat, Old —s. 565. 58s. New —s. 455. 50s. Foreign —s. 5Ss. 60s. ln bond... —s. —a. —a.

Yesterday afternoon an inquisition was taken at the sign of the Red Lion, Crown -court, Pall-mall, before Mr. HIGGs, on view of the body of Henry Terry, a fine little boy, six years of age, who came by his death under the following shocking circum stances : Charlotte Collier deposed, that she was servant to Mrs. Terry, fruiterer, No. 11, Crown-court. On Saturday night last, about eight o'clock, she poured about a gallon of boiling water into a pail as usual, for the purpose of washing the deceased and his little sister, a child three years of age, as soon as it had suffiicien►ly cooled. The deceased at this time wanted to go into the shop to his mother, who was engaged there with a customer, which witness pre vented, and desired him to sit down in his chair, which he accordingly did; but while witness was busy in taking off the boots of his little sister, he suddenly jumped up, and running towards the pail, lost his balance, and fell backwards into it in a sitting posture. The little sufferer cried out," Save me—save me, Charlotte," but got up almost in stantly of his own accord. The shrieks of the child bought his mother to his assistance, who tore off his clothes, and witness ram for a doctor. Mr. James Horn, assistant to Mr. Walker, sur geon, of Piccadilly, attended the ►leceased, and found on examination the lower part of his back ex tensively scalded. Witness applied the usual reme dies, and lie went on favourably for three days, but subsequently he became seriously affected, and ex pired on Tuesday.—A verdict of " Accidental death" was recorded. Yesterday morning a jury assembled at the Can terbury Arms, Upper Marsh, Lambeth, and were empannelled by Mr. CARTER, Coroner for Surrey, to inquire touching the death of Mr. William Cook, the landlord of the above house, who committed suicide by hanging himself on Saturday last.—Verdict— " That the deceased put a period to his existence by hanging himself while under the influence of tempo rary insanity." LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, OCT. 21. CALVERT V. SLATTER. This was an action to recover damages for a loss sustained by the plaintiff in consequence of a mis representation made by the defendant respecting the business of a butcher's shop belonging to him. The defendant having in May, 1828, advertised for the disposal of the good-will and fixtures of his butcher's shop, in Windmill -street, Finsbury-square, the plaintiff entered into a treaty with hint for the purchase, and the defendant having represented that his business was to the extent of 12 or 13 sheep, and a side and a half of beef a-week, the plaintiff agreed to give him 801. for the good-will and fix tures. That sum was paid, and the plaintiff took possession of the shop. He, however, in a short time found that the business was not such as it had been represented to be, and that the retail sale was not more than four or five sheep and one side of beef a week. Having continued at the shop until November, 1828, he then disposed of the business for .50/. For the defence witnesses were called to prove that the business was conducted badly by the plain th. __esaterday a Court of Directors was held at tiff, and that the meat sold by him was of an indif fernt quality, and the person who purchased the c,:l4.l%,rsitt India House, when Captain ALEXANDER good-will of the Plaintiff stated that since he took z___ as _ . ‘vas morn in to the command of the ship the business the number of customers had been Coutts, consigned to Bombay and China. doubled.—Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 30/.

Some time since a house was attacked in the neighbourhood of Miltown ; the owner served a notice on the High Constable for 151., the da mage he alleged he had sustained ; but when Mr. Davoren, the brother of the worthy Divine we have been alluding to, heard of the notice he repaired to the premises, and finding the da mage done not to exceed 15s. he protested against the notice, and so far succeeded in say , ing the neighbouring poor from a species of legal plunder. How was this felt by the pea santry ? Why that hundreds of them went, in a day or two after, to Mr. Davoren's farm and gratuitously cut down his hay, corn, &c. refusing to accept of even some necessary refreshment. Pity that such a people should be reviled or trodden upon, or dealt by, otherwise than by that grateful feeling they are so ready to reciprocate. The contrast so eloquently delineated by the R ev . John Murphy, in speaking of the Rev. Mr. Blood ; in contra-distinction of the Rev. , We are requested to state that the following New Works are published this day by Messrs. Cor.suaN and BENTLEY, New Burlington-street :-1. Tales of my Time, by the Authoress of " Blue Stocking Hall,' 3 vols.-2. Travels in the Interior of Mexieo, by Lieut. R. H. W. HARDY, R.N., 1 vol. Bvo.

On Saturday evening last the coach called the Yarmouth Mail and Telegraph, which runs from the White Horse, Fetter-lane, left that inn about seven o'clock . , full insi.le and out, and a large quantity of luggage on the roof and in the hind boot. On the coach arriving at Ilford it changed horses, and then proceeded on to a village called Chadwell, about two miles from the former place, when, according to usual custom, LEE, the coach man, pulled up ; when on going behind the coach he dis covered that the boot had been broken open, and all the contents, consisting of two carpet bags, a portmanteau, a small box, a gentleman's cloak, and a lady's pelisse, had been carried off by the robbers. The horse patrol had, about ten minutes before the coach came up, passed through the village, and upon the discovery of the rob bery, the horsekeeper was dispatched on horseback after him, and almost immediately they both returned, and the circumstance being communicated to him, he said that he had observed a horse and cart, in which were four or five men, lurking on the road, midway between the two places, and had bade them good night, but no answer was re turned. It was therefore placed beyond a doubt that these were the gang who had perpetrated the robbery, and thereupon the patrol without delay galloped off on the road towards London in search of the thieves, when, on reaching a field half-way between Ilford and Chadwell, lie observed several men standing together, apparently talking. He rode towards them, at the same time calling to them, but they made no answer, and ran off towards a hedge, which they jumped over, into another field, followed by the patrol, but on coming up to a second hedge, he could proceed no further, as there was no possibility of getting over, and the mea thereby were enabled to effect their escape. The patrol, finding all further pursuit at an end, returned across the field he first saw the men standing in, when, on reaching the spot where they stood, his horse shied at something lying on the grass; he instantly dis mounted, when, to his astonishment, he discovered the whole of the stolen property, with the exception of the cloak and pelisse, which the thieves had abandoned in their flight. The patrol instantly procured assistance and removed them to a place of security, and next morning delivered them up to Mr. CLIFFORD, the book-keeper at the White Horse, Fetter-lane, and received a reward for the promptitude with which he had acted. Divine we have been noticing, demonstrates that the warm feeling, so frequently goaded into action, is not levelled at the Established Church, or those of its Pastors disposed to practice what they preach. No, it is solely levelled at those who, forgetful of the great end to which religion leads, stray into the mazes of self-aggrandize ment and wordly pomp, treading on the people, as worms crawling in their way, whenever a sense of feeling manifests itself to oppose the accom plishment of these ends. Mr. Blood is a Pro- iestant Divine, and Mr. Murphy a Catholic Priest, both imbued with the spirit of peace. Yet, for inculcating this holy doctrine, the Rev. John Murphy has been reviled, and the people he has been leading to a sense of their duty are, notwithstanding the causes we have assigned for exciting them to acts we deplore and condemn, held up to the empire as barbarous, and without the pale of civilized society, because a neighbour. ing parish, the parish of Kiltoraght, is in a state of disturbance. Let those who rule over the property and direct the political energies of the county, lead in the hallowed path of good feel ing and forbearance. There were 160 cattle hi the market this morning, consisting of farrow cows, from the neighbour hood, and sm.dl Highland stots, in very poor condition. The former brought is. 6d. to Ss. 6d., and the latter 6d. to 9s. per stone tron. There were 1,560 sheep, and 240 lambs shown. Best black-faced ewes brought 13s. and welders 21s. each. Lambs varied from 4s. to Bs. Several fine lots of Aberdeenshire and Perthshire cattle were in town this morning, purchased by Glasgow fleshers at the Tryst, from 201. to 221., and weighing 45 stones, beef and fat.-- Glasgow Chronicle. The proceedings of Sunday, given in this day's Post and Sentinel, are big with interest as regards the peace of the district, and the charac ter of those disturbances which have, unfortu nately, taken place of late in the northern ba ronies of the county. Deeply as we deplore combinations of any kind calculated to disturb the public peace, or to hold the law, which is the only legitimate shield to be looked to, in open defiance, it becomes part and parcel of our public duty to probe such things to the very core, not as a plea of justification, for that we condemn ; but to lay before the Government and the country a fair expos 6 of causes and effects. This duty we feel ourselves specially called upon to discharge as Journalists naturally and politically connected with this great county, and the more immediately so from the known peaceable and exemplary conduct of its peasantry during years of difficulty and distress, even when Rock and his predatory troops were spreading terror and dismay through the greater portion of its sur rounding counties. On many occasions it was painful to observe that several of the outrages committed in Lime rick, during the years 21 and 22, were a species of re-action on those who, ignorant of the cha racter of our people, goaded them into desperacy and despair. The raking character of the Cour tenay agency at the time, is too recent in the re collection of these districts, to require a stronger proof of the primary cause of the county Lime rick disturbances. In admonishing the people against the course they were pursuing, the agent was also cautioned against the precipice he stood on ; but the fatality of his character bid defiance to public opinion, and he accordingly fell ! We have been no less sparing in our advice to Mr. Synge, who has been within the last three years too successfully making petty warfare upon the feelings and religion of the tenantry living under him, at Rath and Dysart ; but that gentleman, whether from a belief that he was right, or a wilful determination to attain his end, be the means either right or wrong, has been deaf to our suggestions, and hence we find him encamp ed within a fortress, surrounded by police, in stead of being guarded by the affections of his tenantry. Yet it is but just to those he has estranged, to find that, without resorting to his military guards, he can walk and shoot upon the neighbouring mountains as quietly and as safely as when within his fortress. Alluding to the outrage shamefully committed on the Rev. Mr. Davoren, it is but right to ba lance the account between the Rev.-Parson and his no-flock ; yes, strange as the term may sound in the ears of our readers, it is no less true that the Rev. Divine has no other connexion with the parish he holds save and except his tithes. Here he has a church, but it is a church with out a congregation—his clerk, wife, and chil dren, being the sole staff and corps of his church militant. Yet, on the introduction of Mr. Goulburn's Tithe Composition Bill this worthy Divine took a short cut to the vestry-room, when the parishioners say he took them by surprise ; and although they protested in a court of law against the illegality of the proceeding, they are doomed to pay a heavy assessment for the spiri tual comfort of his man Roger ! ! Some time since a stack of straw belonging to the Rev. Gentleman was burned, as he says, maliciously, but of which the parishioners are in doubt ; for this Mr. Davoren asked 1.51.105. from the Grand Jury, out of which he got 101., although the straw and corn were bought by him, as we are given to understand, for 131., of which he re ceived 81. for the corn ! ! • WAVERLEY NOVELS—NEW EDITION.

Y, i~ INDIA. MEMORIAL OF SIR ALEXANDER MACLEOD, C. 8., COM MANDANT OF ARTILLERY, AND THE OFFICERS AT THE HEAD-QUARTERS OF THAT CORPS. No. I. COPY OF THE MEMORIAL SENT TO GOVERNMENT FROM TILE HEAD•QUARTERS OF THE ARTILLERY. • Dum Dum, Jan. 6, 1829. SIR,—I have the honour to request, in my own behalf and in that of the officers whose signatures are annexed to the accompanying separate paper, that you will lay before his Excellency the Right Honourable the Commander-in-Chief, to he by him submitted to the Goverhor-General in Council, and supported by him as our natural and constituted protector, our most respectful representation of the feeling of dismay with which I, and the said officers of artillery, have been impressed by the promulga tion of General Orders, No. 251, November 29, 1828—feeling; which must, eve believe, be equally participated in by all the officers of the regiment when these orders become known. We need not now submit for the consideration of his Lordship the disappointment which the army suffered, when so large a defalcation from regimen tal allowances, in particular situations, to a propor tion of the officers of the army was made by the batta arrangement of 181)1, nor the expectations, resting, as we believe, on grounds as valid as the most solemn engagements, which were entertained by us, our parents and guardians, when we devoted ourselves to serve in a distant country and unconge nial climate, that the allowance then established should be continued to us during our period of service. We do not press these considerations , not only ,-;"- because we feel persuaded they are too prominent to have escaped the deliberate and serious attention to which they are entitled from the Government, but because we feel pressed by motives of greater and more immediate urgency, as well as of a deeper interest, by addressing ourselves to principles of ne cessity, humanity, and policy. The abstraction► of superfluity might be received with indifference, and an overpowering state neces sity might reconcile men of honourable principles to temporary privations; hut when no imperious ne cessity is alleged, we cannot contemplate successive reductions from our personal allowances with indif ference, or refrain from declaring ourselves wholly unable to bear quietly a pe►manent reduction from that which was before barely adequate for a decent maintenance, without viewing with despair the po verty entailed on us, and the consequent distress we must suffer, and which must ultimately lead to our renouncing those expences ever deemed necessary to foster the feelings and support the habits required from us, in order to maintain the respectability of our profession, and the efficiency of the army of which we form not the least important part. We assure his Lordship that regimental allow ances, including half batta, half tentage, and reduced house rent, are insufficient to prov►de for decent food, lodging, and clothing to subaltern officers, and are wholly incompetent to the maintenance of officers of every rank who have families, at any station in this presidency, but at those stations in particular which have been selected for the present arrange ment, where the existing system, in regard to quar ters and other expences, has been so long esta blished (but it is probably more difficult than at any other to curtail our expences were it possible). Unmarried officers must in future remain so ; but to those who, under different expectations, have al ready entered that state, and to the subaltern offi cers, there is no remedy beyond the redress we trust they may yet receive from a reconsideration of the consequences of the orders in question. Against such a state of privation of all domestic enjoyment, and of continued banishment from our country and friends, we hope the army at large will not plead in vain. But we, in particular, respectfully appeal to the Commander-in-Chief, whether the nature of the artillery service, and the constitution of the regi ment, does not expose its officers to especial charges in the performance of their duty, beyond those likely to fall on other classes. We cannot do our duty in the field without being mounted—an expense borne by the State in his Ma jesty's service ; and we are liable to constant de tachment duty with small parties, and to removals, as vacancies or the events of the service demand, from one branch, or one troop or company, or any ono artillery station, to another, not unfrequently at very great distance asunder, necessarily producing great charges of moving and expenses of equipment, to the hindrance of all benefit from messing, enjoyed by regiments serving in one body at their head-quarters. The profession to which we have the honour and pride to belong, has induced us collectively to de vote a considerable portion of our pay to the fur therance of pursuits, which, we trust, are alike cre ditable to ourselves and beneficial to the Govern ment ; and the respectable establishment of our library and regimental institutions already created and supported at Dum Dum by our united exertions, will, we trust, bear testimony to our zeal in profes sional pursuits. These institutions are only main tained by subscriptions on a scale, such, that officers on half batta at Dum Dum must pay double of those absent on full batta from head -quarters. A partial, if not a total failure of the subscription upon which these establishments depend, must, we regret to apprehend, be one of the consequences of the late Government order. Thus, not only our subsistence, but our respect able and useful ex►stence (as a body of officers) is, indeed, precarious by the operation of the orders against which w e now appeal. We therefore im plore that the Governor-General in Council will not deny us the only relief to w hich we can look for ward, by withholding the operation of the Govern ment Order No. 254, of the 29th November, 1828, TINCK, G.C.8., GOVERNOR-GENERAL OF INDIA, &C. The respectful memorial of Lieut.-Colonel Henry Hawtrev, on his own part, and in behalf of the Officers of the 3d Regiment Light Cavalry serv ing at the head-quarters of the Cawapore division of the Army; Sheweth—That your memorialist deems it ineums bent on him, in justice to the interests and under , stood rights of himself and his brother officers, and as an act of duty to the Supreme Government, under which they have the honour to serve, to sub mit with all respect, and in honest sincerity, for the consideration of your Lordship in Council, the senti ments of surprise and deep concern with which they have been impressed by the publication of the General Orders of the 29th November, 1828, by which it is enacted, that at certain specified stations the allowance of full batta, heretofore considered as a fixed and permanent portion of the salaries of tho Honourable Company's officers, is to bediscontinued. That although the Order above referred to does not as yet, and is not likely to immediately affect the personal interest of your memorialist* and his brother officers, they nevertheless would feel them selves wanting in a due regard for the welfare of the army to which they belonged, and culpably in different to its rights, were they silently to submit to the operation of an Order whereby, as they feel, and most. respectfully submit to your Lordship in Council, the interests of the army are deeply injured. That the allowance of full batta at every station under this presidency (excepting only the garrisons of Fort 'William and Allahabad) has ever been con,- sidered to form a certain component part of the.iii come of the officers of the Bengal army, That your memorialist and-his brother officers are ire. pressed with a belief that this allowance was Nisi. tively guaranteed to the army by the Honourable Court of Directors on occasion of the discussions which took place respecting the allowances and or ganisation of the army, towards the close of the last century. That they, in common with, they believe, every officer in the service, have ever considered the allowance in question as one that could not be legally taken from them, or reduced. That the Honourable Court of Directors, in their general letter of the 15th September, 1808, have admitted, " that persons nominated to employments in India enter their service perfectly aware of the respective scale of allowances of the three presidencies." That if this argument could be considered valid in refut ing a claim put forward by the Madras army for an increase of allowances (the occasion on which it was adduced) it must be equally conclusive against the justice of the reduction of allowances now ordered, and that in this view of the case, your memorialist and his brother officers cannot but consider the latter as a breach of the—at all events, understood and implied, if not positive, agreement under which they became the servants of the Honourable Company. That, although your memorialist and his brother officers conceive the preceding arguments will be sufficient to convince your Lordship in Council of the hardships of the reduction of allowances against which they have ventured to appeal; and, conse quently, hope to obtain a repeal or suspension of the General Orders directing it, they still deem the pre sent occasion a not unapt one to lay before your Lordship in Council a few remarks on the same sub ject, bearing not so much on the justice or injustice of the measure ordered,r,as on the positive cruelty of enforcing its execution, and of curtailing the already limited means of a body of officers, whose allow ances at best afford them but a bare subsistence, arid are quite inadequate to support them in the style of life in which, as gentlemen, they were born and bred, and to which, as officers, they must conform. That this is no imaginary assertion is but too clearly proved by the melancholy fact, in which there can be no doubt, that at least 9-10ths of the officers of the Bengal army are more or less involved in debt and difficulties, which it is almost impossible for any care or economy to avert, where an individual enters the service with no advantage or income beyond his regimental pay and allowances. That the Honourable Company's military ser vants in general have entered the army with a belief and understanding that they would enjoy, during their exile from their native land, a scale of income not only sufficient to support them as gentlemen,but to enable them (with care and prudence) to Inv by a small sum monthly, towards the formation of a fund on which and their pensions they might hope in the vale of years, with a constitution most probably se verely injured, and incapacitating them from further active duties, to be at last able to retire for the few remaining days of life that might be allowed them. How different is this picture from the sad reality ! An officer now has no sooner entered the service than he finds he is an exile for life. He has too much good feeling to allow of his returning again as a burthen on his family, and he resigns himself hopeless and despairing to the destiny which too surely awaits him. It is easy to chew the causes which have led to this state of things. The scale of pay and allowances has remained stationary (it may rather be said to have lowered) for a length of years; whilst at the same time the wages paid to domestic servants and labourers of every distinction have been constantly, and still are, on the increase, and the wide extent of territory now occupied by the army, and the distance of many stations from when e- l marches water carriage, have also tended not only to inc rease the l expense m of re the lVi t o h ffi t c h e o r s s e of hi formerlong v double full batta was given) and a ddi t i onal esti (compared blishments of extortionary servants, but to enhance most considerably the price of all the comforts and necessaries of life. It is also to be remembered that, in the calculations of the cadet —nay more, in the table of pay and allowances to be seen by him at the India House, the Sonat rupee stands as equiva lent to 2s. 6d. He comes to India, and finds it not worth Is. 9d.; and if he happens to be stationed at All cavalry corps are stationed in Upper India.— Note of a Correspondent.
