EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM RIGA, DATED JULY 7. " General Essen having requested the advice and assistance of AdMiral Martin, the Admiral, in the Aboukir, accompanied by the Ariel sloop of war, and Reynard gun-brig, arrived,, yesterday in Riga Bay. I have just seen, at the Castle, an Aide-de-Camp of the Emperor, ,who arrived in 28 hours from bead-quarters, which were on Sunday night, and early ,yesterday morning, at Widze, about 60 wersts from Dunaberg, but were to be removed backward yesterday to Dunaberg and Druja, a very strong fortified position. The Rus sians hoped to be attacked there. The army cer tainly never was before in such an excellent con dition and high spirits, and well fed, far each man no* gets 4lbs. meat per week. In - short, every account agrees in these particulars, and the en thusiasm of the army is so great as ha's never be fore, been witnessed. Marshal•M‘Donald, with about 20,000 French (or rather Prussians ; com manded by French Officers), Was yesterday morn ing only abdut 45 wersts from Mittau, on his way to Riga ; but no apprehensions are enter tained here, as he has no artillery, and could not get any up in less than a month. The inhabitants are ordered .to lay in four months , of provisions, and the works are to be • manned with near 30,000 Men, about 18,000 of Which are not yet come, but are on their road from the interior, and near at hand ; some ladies are gone to St. Petersburgh from fear. " The utmost cordiality subsists between the General and the Admiral, and every thing will be done that is possible. The Admiral has under taken to fit out a number of gun and mortar boats, and they are selecting from the lighters. Capt. . Ackloni has nearly finished the telegraph between the Dunamunde and Dome Church. The Com manders and Officers of the British ships of war now here, as well as their crews, arc making great intercession with the Admiral to get employed in the gun-boats.' Out brave sailors are in high spirits." In the cause for non -residence, Hardy r. Hon. and Rev, Cathcart, *Which was tried . 'Lit week at York before Baron-Woop, a verdict was found for the .plaintiff with 9'24dL and costs. On Wednesday last a.ars married, by the Rev. JOSHUA STEPHENSON, at Selworthy, Somerset, , the Rev. F. F. G. FORTESCUE, to FRANCES HEN RIETTA, eldest daughter of the late Sir THO'MAS DYKE AcKLasna,Bart..ofiliellerton, in the County of,Devon. A farmer named Claridge, a resident at High gate; died on kridaY frOm the effects of a fall from a rick of hay on his own farm. It is remarkable that his son was killed by a - fall from a cart near the same hay-rick a fortnight before. A dreadful fire broke out on Friday among the hay-ricks belonging to Mr. Laycock, at the back of Wells's-row, Islington, which eonsmped an _immense quantity•of hay, but was got under be fore it extended to the adjoining buildings. ries 6f arEiliery, with sick and convalescents of Voriotti corr,s report 'dad reached Batavia of th,e massacre of the Dutch ganison of P:"lambang by the natives. The Soverei*: of that place had ir profitable con , tract with tL .Qutch for tin, and on receiving in timation thltt.Batavia had changed lintsterJ, and tire the'Dutch p , )wer_in the East had terminated; he surprised and murdered the garrison, and pos sessed himself of their effects. Previous .to the receipt of this intelligence, an expedition, under the command of Capt. Phillips, had fruit' .Batavia froi .Batavia against the settlements at P.alamban , T. The coffee found in the different store-houses at Java is estimated at upwards of forty thousand tong. The quantities of rice, pepper, sugar, anti other spices, ,are also very large. Subalterns shares oiprize money had sold as high as 4001. each, and a Captain's was estimated to be worth 7501. The beautiful country mansion of former Dutch Covnorers' at Burtenzoig, with a large and profit able estate, had been purchased byilir..Raffies for a lack of rupees: Letters from the Cape of Good hope state, that the Caifres in the interior of the promontory, ad joining the boundary line of the British tertitory, hadlately..assentbled in considerable bodies, amid. attacking the Dutch farmers, had committed va rious depredations and cruelties, destroying the cattle, pillagihg and setting fire to the houses of the settlers, and putting tp death those who at tempted to defend their prOperty. In consequence of these outrages, and the defenceless stator of the frontier, the Cape Hottentot regiment, with a ,company of turopean artillery,„ and a squadron of dragoons, had been sent to Delagoa Bay, where they debarked, and:inar6ted for the interior.

It has, since been ascertained that be has for some time past lived as a post boy at "fir mingbant. . That, be was, enticed into tbiz; busi tress, being ignorant of what he Was about to engage in. He_ was employed by a man to tra vel with some gcntleinkm for a few days, and for which he was to receive a guinea a day and his expenses.. This liberal oiler and pay induced flint to ,procure- leave ,of absence from his rcg ih ar employ at Birmingham for a week. He was coy - - veyed , into Wales, where he was dressed hi a suit of livery, and was directed to travel in a,diekeY on the outside of. a, .carriage, and to go to the coast of Rye,, in, Sussex: He was directed to procure and ,pay .for,-the post horses, on ti road.

By.the late fleet from the East Indies., we have received Madras Papers to the / Ist reh, 13di a. bay Couriers to the 26th January, and Calcutta Jour nals to the middle of Decewber--- - -.;extracts of which are subjoined. The British force in Bundlecund, tinder Colonel Martindell, (about 12,000 men) had bees: put hi motion, and was, in February, before the fort:of Kalleugur : after an unsuccessful negociation with the Kelleddr, for its surrender, batteries were. opened again it on the 28th January, which effected a practicable breaehon the following day, and a.party approached to the assault, but were withdrawn on its being discovered that the ascent Of the rock 'was so steep, that it could . not be 'gained without ladders. The attack was however .reneweda.few days subsequently, when the plaCe was - carried, the garrison, of 700 men, after a short resistance, abandoning the works, and surrender-;• ingthemselves prisoners. The fort was strong from its situation, anti difficult of approach, be ing situated on a hill 760 feet high but the for tifications were in . an indifferent state. Colonel Baptiste, with a strong and well-ap pointed force, had' been actively employed-in the North of Hiudostan against Durgeon Sal, a Raj poot Chieftain, whose capital ;:id fort of Bahadur Ghur, he had taken by .storm. Durgeon Sal had, however, found means to escape with a few of his 'partizans, and the great part of his trea sure. . What- Rao, the infant son of Holkar, had been raised to his father's throne hut, notwithstamt ing the: solicitation's of the Bae, who acted as Re gent, the' Court of Poonah had refused the khelaut of investiture, until a certain sum, which was al leged-to be due to the PeishWa,- had been paid. — For this sum, as well as for some troops to quell themutinous Sirdars; who had instigated the bat talions to revolt, the Bae had applied to Ahiter Khan ; but the latter, probably desirouS of fo menting the troubles as advantageous to himself, .had declined both requests. ' The . Bae'r - Minilter, . Balaram Seit, had in consequence disbanded a part of the military foi-ce, -raised new battalions, and punished those who had conspired against the in fant SOvereign and his mother's life. Sir ,S.' Auchmuty, the . Commander-in-Chief, returned to-Madras on tae 28th Februarys, after A tour, to the different military, stations in that Presidency, which had occupied him nearly four weeks. A brigade of horse • artillery has been forthed at Bombay, on the same footing. with similar corps at other Presidencies. A proniotion had takenplace in the marine de partment of the Bombay Presidency, in- come- , quence of the retirement of Commodore Borlase, who was sueceeded as CommOdore of the Bombay marine, by Captain T. Turner. , ' Captain E. Morris 'as tried at the Calcutta As 'sizes, in December, for the murder of a private in his own regiment.; and after a trial which lasted the whole day, was acquitted. Mr. Stephenson, a Cadet in the Bombay _Es tablishment, was killed in December, in a' dui The Coroner's inquest, after a,due investigation, returned a verdict of Manslaughter- against his . antagonist; and the person who acted as his se , - cond. These two Gentlemen.were tried at the ensuing Bombay Assizes., found guilty, and Sen tenced to three months' imprisonment; while Mr. Stephenson's second was sentenced to four months' imprisonment. A shock of an earthquake was on the 28th De cember felt throughout the Presidency of Calcutta: it was accompanied by two distinct undulatory movements'of the earth, attended by a loud ex plosion. Much alarm was excited,_but no damage was done. • • A new Charter of Justice has been granted by Ministers to the inhabitants of Ceylon, establiSh-, ing the trial by Jury in CriMinal Cases. The 4rst, persons who received the. benefit of it, were‘Capt. J. Parker, and Quar*en-Master J. Staples, of the second Ceylon Regiment, who were . arraigned there in December last ; the former as principal the latteras second, for the murder of. Captain J. Brown, of the same regiment, in a duel. After a 'trial, which lasted 13 hours, the Jury returned a Verdict of Culpable Homicide against Captain Parker, and acquitted Mr. Staples. The Court, in consideration of the prisoner's long imprisonment,. pecuniary losses,' and his shaking hands on the ground with the deceased, thereby doing :away deliberate -malice, and at the Same time offering to refer the dispute to the leconds, which afforded the fairest chance of the quarrel being terminated without bloodshed, sentenced him -to only one week's imprisonment. Mr. Salkeld, Assistant-Surgeon of the 24th Dragoons, put an end to his lite at Calcutta, on the 22d December, by 'discharging the contents of a loaded pistol into the cavity.of his breast. He had been ordered to the Presidency from Mutra to give-evidence on a trial for murder ; but being indisposed„and sheaving symptoms of insanity, he failed) to attend the Court, on which his recogni--, zance was forfeited. Being informed of this cir-' cumstance,. his insanity increased : he became melancholy, and conceived that instead of a pecu niary.fine he had incurred the penalty of death ,• .no reasoning could "shake this belief; and in or der to avoid the ignominious punishment that he conceived to await him, he had recourse to sui cide. On his table was found a letter, stating, in att incoherent manner, the cause of his death., and eopstituting his- mother (Mrs. Salkeld, of Ashby de la Zouch) his heir.—The Coroner's Inquest re turned a verdict of insanity. Capt. Bartholomew, of the Mary, of Calcutta, in his voyage to Prince of Wales Island, having landed with five of his crew on the Lesser-Anda man, were all murdered..
