BOURMONT, MINISTER OF WAR (From a Correspondent.) Bourmont (Louis Victor Auguste de Ghaisne, Comte de), born on the 2d of September, 1774, was an officer in the French Guards, when, on, the breaking out of the Revolution, he joined the Prince de Conde, who intrusted him with the secret mission of hastening the insurrection of the western parts of France. On his return to the Royalist army, M. de Bourmont served during the campaign of 1793, and only left it to join M. tie Scepcaux in the Vendee, who con ferred on him the grade of Major-General of his army, and soon gave him the mission of coming over to England to hasten the departure of the supplies which the Royalists hoped to receive from the British Government. This mission was unsuccessful, and its only result for Count Bourmont was his receiving the Order of St. Louis from the hands of the Count d'Artois (the present King), then residing at Holyrood house. On his return into the ranks of the Ven dean army, he fought against the Republican army till peace was obtained, in 1796, through the prudence and firmness of General Hoehe.— Bourtnont then returned to England, where he was busily employed in raising means to carry on civil war in France. His appearance in the, Maine, in 1799, where he commanded a divi sion of Chouans, was the prelude of hostilities. It was then that, at the head of his troops, he took possession of Mans, chief town of the de partment of the Sarthe, and abandoned it to the most horrid pillage.* But these shameful and easy successes were followed by numerous re verses, which brought on an armistice, soon fol-, lowed by a definite pacification. M. de Bour mont made his peace with the French Republic, and soon endeavoured to conciliate the good graces of the First Consul (Buonaparte). This, however, did not prevent his arrest in 1803,f by order of Fondle, and his successive im prisonment in the Temple, and in the fortresses of Dijon and Besancon. He was fortunate enough to escape from the latter in 1805, and to go into Portugal, where he still was when that kingdom was occupied by the army of Junot. Included in the capitulation of Cintra, notwithstanding the very peculiar nature of his situation, which seemed to exclude him from the benefits of it, he returned into France with the army, and devoted himself with apparent since rity to the Imperial Government. Napoleon ap pointed him Adjutant-Commandant in the army of Naples, and soon afterwards General of Bri gade. It was in that capacity that he served during the campaigns of 1813 and 1814, during which he deserved, by his devotedness and bra very, the grade of General of Division. On the restoration of the Bourbons, Count de Bourmont was, naturally enough, among the foremost of those who eagerly offered their' ser vices to the Royal Family. Louis XVIII': ap pointed him to the command of the 6th Military Division at Besangon, where he was present in 1815, after the return of Buonaparte from Elba, and, to a degree, sanctioned by his presence the proclamation which was the immediate cause of the condemnation to death of Marshal Ney. Count Bourmont solicited Napoleon to serve in his army, and 'obtained the command of the 2d division of the corps darmce of General Girard. On the eve of the battle of Waterloo he abandoned his division, and went to Ghent.t It is difficult to justify such a proceeding on any principle held sacred among men of . honour.— However, M. de Bourmont obtained in 1815 the command of one of the divisions of the Royal Guards. It was natural that, on the breaking out of the war with Spain, such a man should be actively employed ; it was so, and he was appointed to the command of the infantry of reserve ; and after some successes in that short campaign he was then named Governor of Cadiz and of Andalusia. The title of Peer of France was conferred on him the 9th of October, 1823, with a dispensa tion to institute the majorat attached by law to that title_ After the return to France of the Duke of Angouleme, the command in chief of the Army of Occupation in Spain was conferred on General Bourmont, who kept it till 1824. Such is the man who has just been appointed * 1800.—" The successes of these brave chiefs " (La Roche Jaquelin, Lesme d'Elve, Chairette, Stoifiet), says the Abbe Montgaillard, in. his ' tory of France,' " could only organize unconnected and undisciplined bands, which acted in the manner of smugglers, and attacked travellers and detached houses. To form an idea of the very small degree of real consistence which the Royalist forces of the west presented, it will suffice to refer to Bourmont's expedition in November, 1799. That Chouan Chief wished to obtain possession of Bourg de Belle, near the valley of Sable. But this paltry place, open on all sides, defended solely by the in habitants, and some of the neighbouring country people, who had taken refuge in it, and whose number altogether did not exceed 200 men, held out against the Chouans, who failed to take it, though they were provided with two pieces of ar tillery, which they had purchased from an officer who commanded a republican column. To com pensate for this check, the Chouans marched against Mans, which they entered without striking a blow, owing to the inexperience of the magistrates and the military chiefs, but more particularly to the secret correspondence which Bourmont had con trived to carry on with persons in the town. That General, who had never commanded a division in the royal army, entered Mans with about '2,000 men." The following details respecting this conquest are given in an esteemed biographical work,—details which, as we know, remain still uncontradicted : " It is impossible," observes an eye-witness, " to compare the conduct of these troops in this unfor- tunate town otherwise than to the atrocities of Gliengis Khan's Tartars. The public prisons were thrown open, and the malefactors under sentence of death were set at liberty. All the cash depositories of public offices and of many private establishments were plundered. The amount of the pillage in money and other property was estimated at 953,000 francs. The post-office was ransacked. The public registers and other documents connected with the administration of the town were burned ; but an ir reparable loss was the destruction of 60 volumes in folio, containing the history of Mans since 1481. This valuable record, which had been carefully pre served in the Hotel de Ville, was committed to the flames along with more than one hundred civic registers. But what never can be recollected with out the deepest feeling of horror, is the fact that the wounded men of the 40th demi-brigade were mas sacred in their beds." Bourmont and his Chouans evacuated Mans in s;.xty hours. -I- This was the time of the machine blfernale, al ternately ascribed to the Jacobins and the Royalists. It is said, that on the evening of that day, Bour mont forced his way into the box, at the theatre, where Napoleon was, and that he attempted to press upon him the belief that the machine iVernalc was the work of the Jacobins. That conduct, coupled with other suspicions, was the cause of his arrest and imprisonment. " The effects of Buonaparte's sudden attacks were inconsiderable," says the Abbe de Montgail lard, "on account of the information which was given the day before the battle to the Prussians by a deserter, General Bourmont, Chief of the Staff of the 4th corps. General Gerard pledges his honour for the fidelity of Bourmont, whose promise he had received, but the latter went over to the enemy, and disclosed the plan of the campaign. " It would be wrong," adds the same historian, " to do General Bourmont the honour of attributing the catastrophe of the battle of Waterloo to him. The details which he had it in his power to give to the enemy respecting the military operations pro jected by Napoleon, and communications made on that subject to the Prussian and English Generals, were but of secondary importance." " On the evening of the 14th General Bourmont, Colonels Clouet and Villoutreys, and two other officers, deserted to the enemy. Napoleon imme diately ordered such changes in his plan of attack as ' this treason rendered necessary, and without delay marched forward."--illemoira de Fleury de Cha broulon.

Saturday a very well-dressed female, of rather vulgar appearance, applied to the LORD MAYOR fo advice in what manner to act, under circumstance which were detailed by her solicitor, Mr. Hobler jun., and which caused no ordinary degree of sur prise and merriment in the Justice-room. The lady was, it appeared, lately married to a venerable member of the Corporation of London, who had, two (lays after his marriage, attained the 75th year of his age. He was not in a very vi gourous state of health, and the attentions of one • of the other sex had become actually necessary. • Those attentions were tendered in a manner the most agreeable to the old gentleman, who was the more sensible of them, as he had been mar ried many years before. His family, however, had 'thought proper to interfere between man and wife, and were endeavouring to separate them, notwith standing all the obligations which the old gentle man was under to the complainant. The pretence upon which the family interfered was, that the old gentleman was so infirm as not to be able to decide for himself in any matter of moment; that his wife wished to take advantage of his weakness to enrich herself to the prejudice of his children, and that she was incapable, from the situation in life which she had previously filled, of acting with that constancy and devotedness which elderly gentlemen usually expected.—(Laughter.)—lt was rather melancholy to find, that persons in the condition of life to which allusion had been made, were subject to in sinuations of so gross a nature, but certain it is that the moment a man married a servant-maid, the world said, " Well, he'll find it out by and by. He has made his own bed for himself." But what was the thing really apprehended here ? Not incon stancy ; but the natural result of that powerful affection which seldom failed to produce, even be tween persons of very dissimilar ages, some pledge of mutual fondness.--(Loud laughter.)—The lady who applied to the Lord Mayor felt convinced that his Lordship would not countenance any attempt to separate man and wife, but would endeavour to prevent the hostile operation of any inferior bend of relationship. The LORD MAYoR said that the subject was one with which he really did not wish to interfere. He never yet found that cases of a matrimonial nature were at all served by the presence of e Magistrate. The partied Would be well employed in accorottio. dating the matter, Without aposing it to the public. Mr. nobler, jun., said he had suggested that in superable obstacles. but . it appeared that there were obstacles. He should, however, try once more to reconcile the conflicting parties. All his client wanted was her husband, to whom she had been attached for a length of time before she married him, and the old gentleman was in a state of torture, it was said, at her absence. The lady then retired, and soon afterwards the son of the old gentleman entered the justice-room, .and requested that his Lordship would be kind enough to bear the other side of the question. • The LORD MAYOR--Oh, certainly, I shall hear you. The first part is too good not to encourage my attention to the second. The son said, he understood that hia mother-in law had charged him with having had sinister 'dews in wishing to remove his father from her care, or rather from her tyranny. The very reverse was the fact ; he was convinced that his father could live with her no longer; and the circumstances under 'which she had prevailed upon, or rather forced him to marry her, were such as fully proved what sort of person she was. The LORD MAYOR said that no mention of unfair means had been at all made. He believed there must be great exaggeration on both sides ; but if it gave them satisfaction to make known the particulars of their sufferings to the public, they might indulge themselves if they pleased. The son of the old gentleman proceeded. His mother-in-law had, as is well known, been chamber maid to his father for some time, and used to warm his bed every night with a pan of coals. It hap pened that on one night not one of the family but the old gentleman was at home, and he felt very chilly. The girl went down stairs for the pan, but no pan was to be seen. The old man, however, got into bed; and what did the girl do but fling off her clothes and go into bed to him, by way of a warm ing-pan.—(Loud laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—What ! without being in vited ? The son said that she had taken the oppor tunity when nobody was at home to play this trick. She pretended that she could get no pan, and then the moment she got him in a comfortable state of warmth, she seized him by his grey hairs, threatened she would swear a rape against him—(immense tughter)—and made him promise to marry her. The LORD MAYOR—WeII, and what did she do then ? The son said, that having obtained this promise, she said she was content with her " ruina don," arid she fell asleep.—(Laughter.)—The object of the family was to preserve the old gentleman from cruelty and insult; and although they were not afraid of the interference of any future son of his as to their own hereditary claims, they were not quite sure but the lady's industry might produce something to give them vexation in that way.—(Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR said, that the more he heard of this case, the more difficulties presented them sely► s. To interfere between man and wife was long considered not only unlucky but accursed. He was glad to be releasad from the hazard by the dif ficulties with which the case was encumbered; and he was convinced, that if the advice of Mr. Hobler, jun., to settle the business over a bottle of wine or a tumbler of punch had been adopted, there would have been an end to all the ill-feeling and recrimi nations which had followed. Mr. Wooller, for the prisoner, dwelt strongly upon the facts, that the prosecutrix had not men tioned the alleged violence to any one till the Thurs day, and that the mother had proposed to let the prisoner go unpunished, if he would marry her daughter: • Mr. Etico.youpox said, the prosecutrix saccounfed for her concealment of the assault by saying that her mother's hasty temper made her unwilling to com municate it to her. The mother's conduct, in making the proposition spoken of, was most improper, as he had before told her; and so also said her own morried daughter, Mrs. Ilopkins: but that did not affect the prosecutrix, if it had been done without her consent. Miss Louisa, the prosecutrix, was now questioned by the magistrate, and stated, that her mother had never consulted her as to the proposed marriage with the prisoner, whom she had never felt, and did not NOW feel, any inclination to marry. . The discrepancy between the certificate and viva voce evidence of Mr. King induced the magistrate to take the evidence of another surgeon; Mr. Adams, who was sent for to the office, and examined the person-of the young lady. That gentleman stated there was no trace of violence on her person. Mr. Wooler produced a plan of the streets and fields whsre- the violation was alleged to have been committed AO after some observations upon the more vulnerable parts of the case for. the prosecu tion, proceeded to call witnesses for the prisoner. At the former examination the prisoner, who de• nied having had any connection ;pith the prosecutrix, stated that at the place she spoke of there was a watchman close behind them, who must have heard any noise or outcry. Thomas Francis, 4 private watchman, stationed at the spot in question, being sworn, stated that be remembered the night of July 28, a little before ten o'clock, seeing the prisoner in company with a young lady, whom he identified as the prosecutrix. He knew the prisoner well by sight, and had also fre quently seen the female, sometimts walking with other young men. They passed him, and he heard her say, " Don't he rude," or something, to that effect ; and he (the watchman) observed, " No, don't, that would be a pity." They went into the field, and he remained a considerable time at the same place, but did not hear her scream. sh e was then dressed much the same as she was now,. in mourning. The prosecutrit declared that he had spoken falsely, and did not see her at all. Mr. BROUGHTON—Did you pass by any watch man while you were with the prisoner ? Prosecu trix—No, Sir, I did not. She then desired that he should describe her bonnet. The watchman said the bonnet she wore that night was without trimming. (The bonnet she now wore was fully trimmed.) The prosecutrix said she had no other bonnet than the one she now wore. The watchman swore unhesitatingly that her bonnet was as he described. Mr. Bowen, of Hoxton-square, surgeon, stated that the day after the report of the first examina tion appeared in the Times, he called at the mo ther's house to see Mrs. Hopkins, the married sister, whom he attended. He had some conversation with the mother on the subject, and afterwards with the prosecutrix herself, who told him that she - should like to marry the prisoner, for she loud him better than any other man in existence. Mr. BROUGHTON—Are you certain that was what she said ? Mr. Bowen—Yes ; she said she would rather marry him than have him hanged. Mr. BROUGHTON—Rather than have him hanged? That is a very different thing. Then there had previously been some conversation between you about the capital charge against the prisoner. The witness said there had not. The young lady came into the room and sat at the window and as he sat by her he said, " Well, how are you ? you look pretty well. You would like to marry him; would not you ? You love him, don't you ?" To which she answered " Yes." Mrs. Hopkins being sworn, stated, that on the Tuesday night in question her sister Louisa came home while she and her husband were at supper, She seemed agitated, and in a state of trepidation, and Mr. Hopkins said, " Louisa, what is the mat ter'?" She replied that she was very ill, and would go to bed; and she immediately retired to bed without taking any supper. She had then the same bonnet on that she now wore, and had no other bonnet. After some further procee.iing and conversation between the Magistrates and Mr. Wooler, the pri soner was remanded. Mrs. Hopkins applied t• the Magistrate presently afterwards, and pointed out an individual who, she said, had been insulting her, both by words and gestures, during the examination. The person so pointed out denied auy intention of insulting her. Mr. BROUGHTON—Let me hear no more of it, Sir. Witnesses, and particularly defenceless fe males, must have the protection of the Court while under examination. There is, I know not why, a strong feeling against these young ladies, which I am very sorry to have observed. I cannot account for it; but it is not very creditable or manly to wards two young females, who are left neatly orphans.—The several parties then left the office.

"If it were not rather late in the day to recommend a book which is already a current topic in society, we would venture to direct the attention of our readers to the School of Fashion,' as affording, more than any other of what ate called fashionable novels, a true index to the tastes and feelings of the great world. The author is known to be a person of high rank, and this is a circum stance to which some weight is really due, when a book professes to depict the lives and manners of the aristocracy. But in this instance the author is snore than merely a per son of high rank : it is impossible to read her book with out acknowledging that she is also a person of lively talents and quick observation, with a keen sense of the ridiculous, united by rather a rare combination with clear sound sense and perspicacity of judgment."—Courier.

The Illustrations of Shakspeare are so numerous and so varied, that, at first sight, it appears impossible now to produce any which shall possess either novelty or attrac tion. But the projector of the present work hopes that it is still in his power to offer to the public an accompani ment to the dramas of our immortal Poet which shall be desirable, and at least novel in plan. It is his intention to give the whole story of each play in a connected series of designs, whether the incidents be performed or narrated. The manifest advantages of this mode of illustration are such as to occasion surprise that it should not have been undertaken before. The interest that is excited for each individual character, the satisfaction that always results from seeing any thing complete, and the much greater scope for the invention of the artist, are indisputable re commendations of the plan. The Designs will he engraved in outline by the artist himself. The costume, the national physiognomy, and all that can possibly be characteristic or illustrative of the subject, will be closely attended to; and it is hoped that they will be found equally interesting as illustrations of our great dramatist, and as an amusing series of plates for a portfolio or table. As the plays of Shakspeare are not equally fertile in in cidents, the Numbers may occasionally vary in the quan tity of plates, and sometimes may contain two plays; but each Number will be complete in itself, and independent of the others. One Number will appear every two months, containing on an average twenty plates. The number to be printed of the quarto, on India paper, will be strictly limited to ene hundred copies. Printed for T.

Every one seems to agree that he is a bold, cleVer, ambitious man ; but upon what principle of shut policy, or personal consideration, that appointment has been made, we are unable to divine. Our readers are aware of the extensive, not to say unbounded, influence such a Minister is en abled to exercise over the French army. We are very much mistaken in our appreciation of the mettle and temper of the military men of France, if that appointment is not viewed El them with a pretty general feeling of disgust.

With the exception of a few hours' rain - on Sunday evening, the weather was very fine here from last Friday up to the close of Wednesday. Yesterday it commenced raining early in the morning, and has continued, with little intermission, until the present moment (one p.m.), with every appearance of being wet throughout the day. The farmers have brought mach the same quantity of Wheat as of late, and there is a. short arrival up the river. Fine fresh samples go off slowly at an advance of 2s. per quarter, and other descriptions are held at a similar im provement ; but up to the close of the market not much business has been done. Oats are dull at last week's prices. Fine bard New Beans are rather dearer, but there is no improvement in inferior sorts. Malt is in better demand, and rather snore money has been obtained fur fine samples. Wheat cutting has pretty generally com menced in this district, the farmers reaping it at a more early stage than usuil ; but of course all operations of this kind are suspended for the present.

GUILDHALL An old man complained of having been duped in Smithfield on Friday se'nisight by a horse-dealer, whose name and addess he could trace, who had 'sold him a rank roarer, worth about 21 , as a sound horse. When he got him home, he found that in stead of having four black legs, as appeared to his eye, three of them were white and had been painted the opposite colour ; and upon taking off some trap- . „ pings (which had been given in), what he had mis taken for the horse's natural tail and fore-top, came off too, having been cleverly affixed to them. He understood the horse had travelled half over the kingdom in the hands of this dealer, who would re purchase it from purchasers upon making a consi derable sacrifice. He produced the false tail affixed to a linen strap as a specimen of the dressings he had mentioned. Mr. Alderman ANSLEY laughed at the ingenuity of the horse-dealer, and said he would grant a sum mons against him for the fraud, if complainant would bring his name and address, but he thought it would be more beneficial to the applicant to pro ceed in the Marsha'sea Court, which he might do at a small expense. WORSHIP-STREET. Henry Jarvis was on Saturday re-examined be fore Mr. BROUGHTON, charged with violating the person of Miss Louisa Damenbergen, the daughter of a deceased foreign merchant, under circumstances detailed in the report of the first examination in the Times of last Tuesday. The case seemed to have excited a considerable degree of interest, evinced by the exceedingly crowded state of the office. The order of the Ma gistrate that all females and young persons should withdraw before the details unfit for their hearing were entered upon, had the very natural effect of greatly increasing the curiosity of the former, many of whom retired with evident reluctance, in obe dience to the frequently repeated intimation of the Magistrate's desire. The prosecutrix had a violent hysterical fit when the examination was about to commence. The Ma gistrate proceeded in the first place, therefore, to examine the surgeon, whose certificate had been produced on the former occasion. Mr. Wm. King, a very young man, stated that he is a surgeon, residing at No. 70, Margaret-street, Hackney-road, and ,on the Friday evening after the alleged violation charged to have taken place on the Tuesday night, he was called in to examine the per son of the prosecutrix, whose mother told him she supposed the offence had been completed. His evi dence did not tend to support the charge. ' Mr. BROUGHTON—How do you reconcile your evidence with the certificate you before sent, stating that the prosecutrix had been injured by an attempi to violate her person ? Witness—l wrote that I believed there had been such an attempt. The Magistrate said, that in his certificate he said positively that she had been injured by an attempt at violation. (A strict search was instituted through out the office after the certificate in question, but it was no where to be found.) Mr. BROUGHTAN—Has any application been made to you stating the manner in which your evidence might affect the prisoner ? The witness said, there had not either directly or indirectly been any attempt to influence his testimony. Mr. 13RouG0Tos said, he knew that attempts had been made in all quarters. Even to himself there had been an application in writing. He knew not how to believe the witness, whose certificate and the evidence which he now gave were wholly irre concileable. Mr. King explained, that his certificate was written from the mother's aecount of the daughter's linen, (which, however, he never saw,) from which he then believed what he wrote in the certificate. Mrs. Damenbergen in her examination stated, that she had DCVO' observed any familiarity between her daughter and the prisoner, who had merely been employed at her house as a whitewasher some time ago. The assault with which he was now charged was not made known to her till the following Thurs- FORGERY. A very important investigation has been going on for several days before Sir RICHARD BIRNIE, the Chief Police Magistrate of Bow-street office, re specting a very extensive forgery which was recently committed on the Bank of England. The discovery of the forgery took place some time ago, and it was ascertained that nearly 2,0001. had been realized by the persons who had committed the offence, but no clue was obtained that was likely to lead to the de tection of the guilty party till a few days ago. The transaction had been managed with such skill and adroitness, that the money was paid at the Bank of England without the slightest suspicion being enter tained of the genuineness of the instrument upon which it was obtained. The forged instrument was a cheque or warrant, purporting to be an order of the Commissioners of Customs, for the payment of 1,7901., and it was in the usual form, and the signatures affixed to it ap peared to be those of the Commissioners of Customs. The cashier at the Bank of England paid the money to the person who presented the cheque, in notes of 1001. and 2001. value. The Commissioners of the Customs were of opi nion that the forgery had been committed by some person connected with their establishment, and some inquiries having been made, suspicion fell upon one of the clerks, named Richard Hughes Junes, who was in pecuniary embarrassment before the forgery was committed, and immediately afterwards was observed to be in the possession of large sums of money. An officer received orders to take Mr. Jones into custody, and when the prisoner was apprehended he was brought before Sir Richard Birnie, at Bow street office, where he underwent a private examina tion on Saturday evening. The Solicitor of the Customs and two of the Commissioners attended on behalf of the prosecu tion, and an attorney appeared for the prisoner. lie is a young man of gentlemanly appearance. The evidence to implicate him in the transaction was not only that of his recently possessing large sums of money, but it was stated by the gentlemen who ap peared for the prosecution, that on a future day they should be able to produce evidence tracing the pos session of one of the hundred pound notes which was paid at the Bank of England, when the forged %Ilxoo,ga STAINS of RED TORT WINE, Tea, t .
