To the Deputy Assistant Adjutant-Gen. Coorg Field Force. Sir,—_l do myself the honour to report to you, for the infor mation of the officer commanding Coorg Field Force, that on the night of the 9th of April, my advanced guard and piquet were attacked by three bodies of the enemy's troops, and I regret to say the picquet were cut up before the fresh guards came up to the enemy, when they retired immediately. I was unable to pursue them into Coorg itself, as a column of the enemy went off through the jungle to the S. E. of my position with the intention of surprising Manantoddy. After in vain endeavouring to meet with the enemy, I pushed in here last night to defend this post. I hope to receive intelligence to-day, and will prevent their getting into the interior of Wynaad, but I regret to say, I got no assistance from the inhabitants, who evidently sided with the enemy.—l have the honour to be, &c., F. MINCHIN, commanding in Wynaad. Manantoddy, April 5, 1834. P. S.—l find several of the enemy were killed, but under cover of the night they carried off the dead bodies of their comrades, so I have not been able to learn the exact number.

Bivouac one mile and a half in advance of the Huggul To the Assistant-Adjutant of the Northern Column. Sir,—l have the honour to report to you, for the informa tion of the officer commanding the force, that, in obedience to orders, I proceeded, as field officer of the day, with the ad vance picquet, and having suddenly fallen on a strong stock ade and breastwork (the outer work was a very strong bamboo defence, staked with large trees and flanked, commanding the approach in every direction ; the inner was strong and sub stantial, built of stone and mud, and surrounded with a deep ditch, and having innumerable loop-holes, and the access to it apparently impracticable for guns), every exertion was made to carry it by assault, and which, though repeated, I regret to say failed. After having been exposed to a severe and raking fire for four hours and a half, which we en deavoured to check, and finding it altogether imprac ticable, I had a consultation with the senior officers of the picquet, and decided on retiring, which was effected with the greatest difficulty. Whatever means were required for reinforcing the picquet I feel fully satisfied were afforded. The nature of the country in which we were engaged, and the position of the work so strong, that doing more was impracticable ; nothing could have exceeded the steadiness and bravery of both officers and men, and I regret to say the loss of both has been very heavy. For want of food, and the excessive fatigues of the march latterly, my men were so much jaded that they could scarcely pull their trig gers, although evincing every inclination to do so, and worked to the last. w ere ega• ?. k v er, curt. the was NORTHUMBERLAND-STRE}:.T, STRAND.

SUDDEN DEATH.-- Last night, at seven o'clock, an inquisition was taken before Mr. Higgs, at the White Horse, Long Acre, on view of the body of Mr. John Morgan, apothecary, aged `thirty-four, re siding at No. 15, James-street, Long-acre, who suddenly ex pired under the following circumstances :--It appeared from the evidence of Mr. John Swintin, an assistant to the de ceased, that on Monday night last, about eleven o'clock, he was directed by his master, who was standing by the shop door, to go to bed. He had not been up stairs more than a few minutes when the bell of the shop rang, in consequence of which he returned to the shop, where he found the deceased supporting himself by the counter. He appeared in a state of stupor. Witness placed him in a chair and called in Mr. Beill, a surgeon of Long-acre, and a neighbour ; but life was extinct. It was stated that several members of the deceased's family had died in a similarly awful and sudden manner. An uncle, while travelling in a postchaise, was found dead by two persons on each side of him. Verdict—" That the deceased died by the visitation of God." INHUMAN OUTRAGES.—We have this week to record two instances of outrage--different in their nature, but both aggravated in degree. On the evening of Monday last week a young man belonging to Perth committed a shocking assault on the person of a young woman, on the banks of the Almond, near Huntingtower. In order to accomplish his purpose he had subjected the poor girl to the most inhuman usage, and her life has been considered in imminent danger. The perpetrator was traced to Glasgow, where he was appre hended and brought to our gaol. The other case to which we have alluded occurred on Wednesday afternoon, and is, per haps, not less wanton and cruel. A man named Watt, a machine-maker from Dundee, had been employed for some time here by Mr. George Adams, smith and machine-maker, west end of Canal-street. The fellow had been rather ir regular in his habits, and on Wednesday had been tippling throughout the forenoon. On coming to the workshop some time after dinner he became quarrelsome with some fellow workmen, and his master interfered to chide him on that account, and for not attending to the work. He first seized an iron bar, with which he struck his master on the head, and then a most unmerciful blow on the arm. That weapon hav ing been wrested from him he seized an adze, with which at one blow he severed in two one of his master's legs, the bone being cut right through, and the one part of the limb remain ing attached to the other only by a small integument. The monster was secured, and is now in custody.—Perth Courier. DESTRUCTION OF A VESSEL BY FIRE.—One of the most awful and imposing spectacles which has occurred since the conflagration of the Three Bees, about twenty years ago, was witnessed in the harbour of Port Jackson. The Ann Jamieson (a fine brig of 238 tons burden) had hauled abreast of the King's wharf, for the purpose of discharging her cargo. Suddenly a terrific explosion proceeded from the after-hold, which blew up the cabin and carried away the quarter-deck. This was followed by another report, and a dense body of flame, which communicated to the main rigging. A strong north-easterly wind blowing, the flames soon spread along the brig, and in a very short time the whole of her yards, masts, and everything above deck, were entirely consumed. It was with extreme difficulty that the surrounding buildings and shipping were preserved from destruction. The bonded stores were twice on fire, and many other buildings were slightly damaged. After burning for two hours, the hull filled and went down. It is not yet correctly ascertained how many lives have been lost by this dreadful catastrophe, but it is said that seven of the crew and two labourers have met a dreadful and untimely death. Captain Alexander and two military officers were down in the cabin a few minutes before the explosion, and had only just left the vessel. The cause of the accident is attributed to the ignition of some loose gunpowder in the hold, in consequence of a bar of steel falling on a quantity of iron at the bottom of the vessel.—Sydney Gazette. DISTRESSING CASE.—On the 23d of last month, as the wife of a labouring man, named Pain, from Frome, who was about to emigrate to America, by the ship Hornby, from this port, was in the parlour of a public-house in this city, a fellow, having the appearance of a gentleman, entered into conversation with the poor woman, and learning her destina tion, proceeded to caution her on the numerous rogues who abound in our streets, and advised her to secure whatever money she had about her. He said he was also going to Ame ioot., th e yica, and had carefully wrapped up all the money he possessed in a paper p arce l. Hi s unfortunate dupe, who had about her p t r o o o c k e e outds o f h a e l r l her ino nheuys,b consistinga nd an d herself of a possessedsoi. Bank o in the world, took England note, and ten 51. notes of Tugwell's Bath bank, and proceeded to wrap them up in the manner directed, in which the rascal pretended to assist her, and soon after took his de parture. When her husband returned, his wife extolled the prudence of the stranger, add, he but on exam , ining the parcel, it is almost needless to notes had all disappeared. The poor people had net taken thenumiers of the notes, and the quen obliged to remove out clerksas sassist t o h f u. They g we were consequently l I , s bank, to whom tly they wrote, were unable to of the ship their preparations for the voyage,hru fortunate man, and are now left n her in a complete state of destitution. whose wife is almost broken-hearted at the consequence a folly, has, by the advice of some friends, prepared f petition,er soliciting aid to retrieve her loss, and as we are satisfied, from an inspection of various documents, that this is a real case of great hardship, we shall be happy to receive at the office of this paper any contributions that the benevolent may please to bestow.--Bristol Gazette. 3. The Commander-in-Chief has not yet the means of forming his judgment of the causes which led to the disastrous disappointments of the northern and western auxiliary columns, but his Excellency trusts he will soon be enabled satisfactorily to explain the reasons of failure, and to place the services of their leaders in the same conspicuous degree of claim to the approbation of Government, as the other distinguished leaders. 4. The C o mmander-in-Chief requests the orders of Govern ment for the disposal of the ordnance, ammunition, and small arms captured from the enemy. 5. The Commander-in-Chief fully concurs in the senti ments of Brigadier Lindesay, C. 8., has expressed of the va luable services and meritorious exertions of his staff, depart ments, and officers commanding corps, and also with Colonel Foulis' commendations - of the officers and troops of his column; the general gallantry,_ perseverance, and spirited exertions of all the officers and troops employed upon this service is a pleas ing subject of congratalation, and the Commander-in-Chief feels assured, will be dulv appreciated and noticed by the Go vernor-General and the Right Hon. the Governor in Council. 6. In conclusion, the Commander-in-Chief deems it to be his particular duty to bring to the notice of the Government the judgment, decision, and energy with which Brigadier Lindesay, C. 8., has conducted this important service to so early and satisfactory a close ; and, considering the period of the year, the difficulties of the country, and the advantages the enemy possessed in its defence, the experience and talents of the Brigadier have been judiciously and usefully directed to the advantage of the public service. 7.

Camp Bettadpore, April 1, 1834. The Brigadier announces to the troops under his command that the force will probably encounter the enemy to-morrow : it is his desire to press upon all ranks that this is not a war of extermination, but against that part only of the Coorg nation which may be actually in arms in support of the Rajah, whom for his cruelties it is the determination of the British Govern ment to depose, and that the people are to be considered as '" No. 2 in the packet.

The Assistant Adjutant-General Coorg Field' Force. Sir,—l have the honour to inform you, that I arrived within two miles of the Stoney river, on the forenoon of the 2d in stant. At two o'clock I ordered out a party to feel for the enemy ; they were found 200 yards within the Company's ter ritories, were drawn across the river, their position known, and their strength well approximated. On this occasion I regret the death of Lieutenant Erskine, his Majesty's 48th regiment, a promising officer, and the only casualty in this affair. 2. In the morning at six I marched, gave the stockade three rounds of cannister and grape, and then stormed and carried it with trifling loss. 3. From this time until half past three p.m. we had to fight our way every inch, stormed two regular stockades and two breastworks, besides felled trees without number : the last stockade was so strong that if we had not attacked in reverse as well as front our loss would have been serious. Our light companies were nut in the jungle on the right, and kept down the fire of the Coot skirmishers. 4. At four p.m. as the men were much exhausted I took up my position for the night at Stoney Nullab, three miles and a half from the bottom of the Ghaut, pushed on a strong ad vanced post with a gun and mortar, and established our flank companies on the hills to the right which commanded our po sition, and bivouacked for the night. Our advanced post was attacked by skirmishers, but an occasional alert and gun kept them in good order. 5. At six I marched in advance, and within a quarter of a mile of our camp met a flag of truce with a letter to my ad dress from the Rajah, the original of which I have the honour to enclose. The Deputy Aisistant Adjutant-General wrote, by my or ders, an answer to this effect, that if the Rajah's troops did not fire we should not, but that as my orders were to go up the Ghaut, go I would : they brought a portion of their troops in front of us, allowed the flag of truce to remain, and then we marched until my advanced flank companies passed through the last Ookuda at Huggul, at two p.m. on this ground, where I told them I should .remain until to-morrow morning, they brought out grain for the troops which was acceptable, as the far greater part of our supplies were in the rear. As the impediments of stockades, breastworks, and felled trees are at every hundred yards, our guns cannot be up until to-morrow, when I march to Verah Chenderpett. 6. Our casualties are about fifty, but half my sepoys are in the rear, I have not been able as yet to get returns. No officer was killed on Thursday. It will afford me the highest gratification to bring particu larly to the notice of the Officer commanding the force, and his Excellency the Commander in Chief, the noble manner iu which I was supported by my Staff, Officers, and soldiers em ployed in this column. At this moment the fatigue and suffer ing of every person in my force is such that I hope the Officer commanding will pardon the want of details.—l have the honour to be, &c. D.

To my personal Staff I am greatly indebted for the success we have met with, especially to Captain Butterworth, who led the attacks on the stockades, and the first that entered them, receiving three slight ball wounds, also for the reconnoisance which he made on the 2d, by which the situation and strength of the enemy on the lower stockade were ascertained, and which led to our speedy success next day. Captain Butter worth's choice of ground and his plan of encampment have met with my entire satisfaction ; and his knowledge of military dis positions I shall be happy to have brought to the notice of his Excellency the Commander in Chief. To Captain James Macdonald, Deputy Assistant Adjutant- General, who was most forward on all occasions, and to whose energy and exertions I am equally indebted with Captain But terworth, as well as on the evening of the 2d, as on the attacks on the 3d. Captain Macdonald led the light company 48th and grenadiers 32d regiment, to take the last stockade in re verse; the ascent was steep, and the enemy defended every tree. Captain Macdonald received the Rajah's vakeels, trans lated the letters, and contrived, without allowing the Rajah's title, to keep them in good humour and give us supplies. To Officers commanding corps he is greatly indebted for the steady manner in which they led their men, especially to Captain Cortlandt Taylor, commanding the artillery, who in the most gallant manner brought his guns to bear within seventy yards of the first s tockade, an d ensured the c a pture which followed, —the unwearied exertions of this Officer (though suffering from a sprained ankle) in always having his guns up a steep Ghaut and p re p ared for action. There are many I would wish to notice, but where all have done their duty it would perhaps be invidious to particularize, yet I cannot forbear to notice, that the brunt of the fighting fell on the flank companies, especially on those of his Majesty's 48th regiment. I should also be wanting in the feelings of a commander and and a soldier, did I fail to bring to the notice of the Brigadier- General (in the hopes that he will bring the same to his Ex cellency the Commander in Chief) volunteer Thomas Bell, the son of Lieut.-Colonel Bell, of his Majesty's 48th regi ment ; this young man was conspicuous in every attack and skirmish of the enemy. Subadar Mooneah and Wapuldar Paup Naick, the Ex- Rajah's vakeels, allowed their loss on the Huggul Ghaut to be about 250 men, including four chiefs. Our casualties about 50, shall be repotted in a separate letter of this evening. I have the honour to be, D. FOULIS, Colonel, Commanding Western Coorg Field Force. Camp, Mootoodanoor, April 7, 1834.

F, Camp, Mootramoody, April 7, 1834. To the Assistant Adjutant-General, Coorg Field Force. Sir,—l do myself the honour to acquaint you, for the infor mation of Brigadier Lindesay, C. 8., commanding the Coorg Field Force, that the column under my command, pursuing its march yesterday, came upon a strongly fortified position (Buck) of the enemy, situated on the brow of a steep ascent, the passage to which (a narrow defile through a dense jungle) was obstructed by felled trees. The defile being impassable to artillery until the position should be carried, the advance* was strengthened, and divided into two parties, with instruc tions to make sufficient detour on each flank to take the posi tion in reverse ; from the density,of the jungle, and not having view of the work, the two parties closed to the centre much sooner than was desirable, and met at the same moment, im mediately opposite to the front of the position, from which a most destructive fire was opened upon them ; that did not, however, deter them rushing to the assault, which proving wholly unsuccessful, they took advantage of the best cover that circumstances would admit, and the commanding officer, Major Bird, sent for a reinforcement and further instructions. I directed an addition of 40 Europeans and 100 Native In fantry, with the remainder of the Sappers and Miners, to be immediately forwarded. For this purpose Lieutenant-Colonel Mill was directed to detach the Europeans, instead of which he headed them himself, and was followed by the whole de tachment, who passed unperceived into the wood, and made the best of their way to the position. Major Bird was directed to use his utmost endeavour to carry the position, but should it be found impracticable, to withdraw. His report is herewith inclosed. The circumstance of the whole of the Europeans having thus irregularly been taken to the assault, which I have not failed to notice in such a manner as to prevent the recurrence of any future deviation from orders, while it establishes beyond a doubt the impregnability of the enemy's position, since nothing could exceed the determined gallantry of the endeavour, deprived me of the means of pursuing any further measures at the time, had there been a prospect of success from my doing so. During the attack the line, although placed under the best cover that circumstances would admit, at the opening to the defile, was exposed to a galling fire from the jungle, which the skirmishers or artillery could not keep under, occasioning con siderable loss. When the advance retired from the assault, after an endea * 80 Europeans; 160 Native Infantry ; 80 Sappers and Miners. I have the honour to be, &c. C. M. BIRD, Major 31st Regt. L. I.

WAUGH, Colonel, Commanding 2d or Northern Column. P. LINDESAY, Colonel, Commanding Coorg Field Force. To the Adjutant-General of the Coorg Field Force. Sir,—l have to report to you, for the information of Brigadier Lindesay, C. 8., commanding the Coorg Field Force, that, in consequence of information received yesterday evening, I detached this morning two serjeants and forty rank and file of his Majesty's 48th Regiment, together with a company and a half of Sepoys, the whole under the command of Captain Noble, attended by the Brigade-Major. They moved forward to Bullary Pett at daybreak this morning, for the purpose of reconnoitring the position of a stockade about five miles in advance of this ; in the midst of a dense jungle, about two miles distant on the march, we fell in with an aban doned post of the Rajah's people, but on arriving within less than half a mile of the stockade several of the Rajah's people were seen lurking. but they retreated amongst the bushes, and made no attempt to oppose us • shortly afterwards the stockade appeared in view from a sudden turn in the road but apparently none of the Rajah's people were behind it ; Captain Noble and the Brigadier-Major pushed forward with the advanced guard, and approached within fifty yards of the gateway, the road was apparently clear, but bounded on the left by hills covered with an impenetrable jungle, separated from us by a deep jungle gully. The ground to the right commanded us and was crowned by stockading from the gate way; and which flanked the road for about eighty yards, when it followed the bend of the hill and retired from our left flank. We were in the act of returning when it was considered neces sary to examine a small pathway on the right flank, but a shot from that quarter appeared to be the signal for a general run ning fire, which extended even to the rear of our flanks, and it was here the detachment suffered the heaviest loss, from the Rajah's people occupying the thick and impenetrable jungle which surrounded us on every side. Immediately on the fire commencing, the guides deserted us, and as the road is of the very worst kind, and some parts merely a footpath with several of a similar nature diverging from it, the detachment very soon became entangled amongst them; it was some time before they found the main road, on regaining which, although closely pressed by the enemy from the hill-tops and jungle, our loss became less severe, notwithstanding the extreme fatigue undergone, when within about a mile and a half of the camp we fell in with two strong parties sent out to support us, when as the men were fatigued they were immediately marched in under cover of the supports by whom the enemy were effec tually checked. I regret to say that our loss in killed and wounded has been severe, owing to the nature of the country ' and the excessively bad road ; every valley as well as hill by which we passed on our advance and return, commanded us on the flanks, which, from knowledge of the country, the leader of the Rajah's people was enabled to use to great advantage ; there were some horsemen and two guns accompanying them. I beg leave to submit to you the impracticability of forcing this stockade without the aid of artillery, as from the nature of the country there appears no method of turning it, and it is flanked on every side by an impenetrable jungle ; in fact, the whole road from this place to the stockade is either on the sides of hills or in the valleys surrounded by jungle, every inch of which may be defended against an attacking force. The party opposed to us on our retiring amounted, I should con sider, to about three hundred. I beg herewith to annex a return of the killed and wounded. I have honour to be, &c. G. JACKSON, Lieut.

Sir,—For the information of Brigadier Lindesay, C. 8., Commanding Coorg Field Force, I have the honour to report the safe arrival at the Field Hospital Kensame Hooscootah of the whole* of the sick and and wounded of the column under my command, and that the several wounded cases are doing remarkably well. By the laudable exertions of Captain L aur i e , c om manding the depot, due prov ision has been made for their accommoda tion in temporary buildings within the fort, the construction of which commenced prior to my leaving on the Ist instant, ac cording to arrangements which I made with the Fouzdar of the district.

Sir,--With reference to my letter of the 6th instant, I have To the 6th instant inclusive. To the Adjutant-General of the Army, Fort St. George. Sir,—l had the honour of reporting yesterday, that the Rajah Verarajander Woodyer had surrendered himself a pri soner, and was secured in the fort of Madkerry. As this desirable event may be looked upon as the termina tion of hostilities, I deem it a proper occasion to acquaint the Commander-in-Chief with the sense I entertain of the services of the staff and other officers his Excellency was pleased to appoint to the force. To the unwearied exertions of Major Steele, the Deputy Quartermaster-General, I am entirely indebted for the infor mation and arrangement which by enabling me to concentrate the force on the capital, so speedily and satisfactorily effected the object for which it was so employed. Lieut. Mackenzie, Deputy Assistant Quartermaster-General, has performed the minor duties with great credit. The willing activity of Capt. Byham, of the artillery, a volunteer attached to the depart ment, has been conspicuously useful. Lieut. Hicks, the Assistant Adjutant-General, has con ducted the numerous duties of his department with zeal and attention ; while Captain Forbes, Deputy Assistant Adjutant- General, of his Majesty's 39th Regiment, an excellent and intelligent officer, attached to myself, has afforded me very valuable assistance. Colonels Foulis and Waugh, Lieut.-Colonels Steuart and Jackson, commanding the different columns, have, I am as sured, used their utmost exertions to carry into effect the operations entrusted to them. The respective reports which I have already had the honour to transmit will have put his Excellency in possession of their opinions of the services and merits of the troops under their orders. _ a It remains, therefore, for me only to bring to the notice of his Excellency the excellent conduct of that part of the eastern column which has been acting under my orders. To Major Poole, of his Majesty's 39th Regiment, whom I placed in im mediate command of the Infantry Brigade ; to Captain Seton, commanding the Artillery, and Captain Underwood, the Chief Engineer, I have been indebted for the most zealous and able assistance ; and I do but justice in reporting, that the officers and soldiers of every rank and degree have, under all circum stances and in all respects, merited my most perfect approba tion.—l have the honour to be, &c. P. LINDESAY, Colonel, Command. Coorg, Field Force and Brigadier. Camp, at Madkerry, April 11, 1834. P. S.—l feel it due to the Commissariat Department to add, that, notwithstanding the extreme difficulties of the roads, the troops have never been without supplies, which I attribute to the attention of Lieutenant Robertson, Sub- Assistant Com missary -General, and to the excellent instructions under which he has acted. P. LINDESAY, Colonel. T. H. S. CONWAY, Adjt.-Gen. to the Army. [Received in a former despatch.] To the Adjutant-General of the Army. Sir,—l do myself the honour to report to you, for formation of his Excellency the Commander-in-Chicf, tat the head-quarter division of the eastern column of the,Coorg Field Force under my command, this morning entered, gip Coorg territory, crossing the Carwery at Hebhauly. The passage of the river was slightly defended by a paity about two hundred men, who disappeared as soon as the 'head of the column had reached the middle of the ford. No casualties occurred on our side; and, as far as I 'can learn, none on the part of the enemy. I have not as yet received the report of the operations of the other columns.—l have the honour to be, &c. P. LINDE S AY, Colonel, Commanding Coorg Field Force. Head- Quarters, Camp Hebhauly, April 2, 1834. • To the Adjutant-General of the Army. Sir,—l have the honour to report to you, for the information of his Excellency the Commander in Chief, that the head quarter division of the eastern column of the Coorg Field Force under my command, this morning attacked and took the pagoda at Ramasamy Gurnaweye, and effected a passage across the Ghaut. The enemy made rather more resistance than I had reason to expect. They again made a stand at a difficult barrier situated in a thick jungle, the approach to which was much obstructed, but the troops speedily dislodged and drove them off. I am happy to be able to state that the casualties on our side have been very few ; I herewith transmit a return ; the enemy are said to have lost eight or ten people. We took one gun and twelve prisoners. I have as yet received no report from the other columns. I have the honour to be, P. L INDE SA Y, Colonel. Commanding Coorg Field Force.

Sir,—l have the honour, by order of the Commander-in- Chief, to forward, for submission to the Right Hon. the Go vernor in Council, copy of dispatch received at three n. M. this day from Brigadier Lindesay, C. 8., commanding Coorg Field Force. The Commander-in-Chief has announced the surrender of Madkerry at this station by a Royal salute.

H. S. CONWAY. Adjutant-General of the Army. Adjutant-General's Office, Head-quarters, Camp, Bangalore, April 9, 1834. To the Adjutant-General of the Army, Fort St. George. Sir,—l have the honour to report, for the information of his Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, that the head - qu arter division of the eastern column of the Coorg field force marched to Madkerry, the capital of the Coorg country, this morning, and took possession of the fort without any opposition, on the walls of which the British flag has been displayed under a Royal salute, and it is now occupied by the light company of his Majesty's 39th regiment. The fort was vacated by orders from the Coor g Rajah Rre vious to our arrival, and it is expected that he will deliver him sel, into our hands to-morrow. The troops were much harrassed the last two marches in consequence of the natural difficulties of the road, which were much increased by large trees being thrown across, and caused much delay in removing them, and yesterday we . could only advance five miles in fourteen hours. We met with no other obstructions from the enemy, all . the stockades having been deserted, or the occupants delivering themselves up on the ap proach of the column, and placed themselves under our pro tection. I am happy to say that the troops continue e x t reme l y healthy, and nothing could exceed thei r exert i ons i n over coming the d i fficulties they had to contend with, under the mo st trying circumstances, and I request you will express my (la, Was published, in 2 vols., post Bvo., MAN OF HONOUR, and THE RECLAIMED. beautiful By a LADY of RANK.
