The Court w as this morning cro R wded to excess. William "Warren Cutler, aged 27, George Miles Grinder, aged 34, and Isaac Smith, aged 31, were in dicted for a rape upon Elizabeth Hartland. The prisoners are all married men and fathers of families. There was no Counsel for the prosecution. Mr. Anor.ratrs and Mr. CLaxxsow appeared for the prisoners. Elizabeth Hartland examined—l am a married woman. On the 25th of March I met the prisoners in Rosoman street, Cferkenwell, I went into a public house to drink with them. We afterwards went across a field near White Conduit-house, where the offence with which they are charged was committed. The witness here detailed the facts of the case, as they lately appeared in our police reports, the principal part of her statement was unfit for publication. Cross-examined by Mr. AnoLPHU6.-I have kept com pany with a man named Langley. Ido not know a man of the name of Neale. I knew a parish officer named Rill. I was at a ladies' house near Ball's Pond, but was not in her service. I had slept there for three weeks pre vious to the transaction ; on that ❑ight I had been to see my mother, and intended to return in the evening. I told the three gentlemen that I was going on an errand, but I was really so confused that I did not know what I did say. I know White Conduit-house and gardens, but have not been there for two years; I was never turned out on ac count of being a drunken disorderly prostitute. Mr. ADOLPHUS—W m you never turned out of any public-house or gardens ? Witness—Really, Sir, I beg your pardon, but I do not think these questions have any thing to do with the case. Mr. Justice PAR=E-But indeed they hare—it is highly necessary that we should know something of your former life. I suppose you hare been a prostitute ? No, I hare not. I may have been with men, but was never a prostitute. By Mr. Anoirnus—l went to Ball's Pond on the night of the 25th of March. Langley slept with me on that night; and another man slept with my fellow-ser vant. The witness here said—it is too bad to ask me these questions —you know I have no Counsel ; I have told the truth, and can't say any more. Mr. AnoLrnus—But indeed you must tell a great deal room The witness then underwent a long examination as to her mode of life. She gave most of her answers in a pert and flippant manner, but they were of a nature unfit for publication. There appeared here an evident disposition on the part of the Jury, to stop the case, which being observed by Mr. Juetice Patter., his Lordship said, n o one wou ld b e more happy than himself not to proceed with the trial, if it de • pended upon the bare testimony of the prosecutrix, but when he saw other, and such respectable names on the bill, his duty would not permit him to adopt such a course. His Lordship also begged that there would be no more smiling in Court, for it should be borne in mind that it was a most serious and important inquiry. The cross-examination was extended to a great length. Witness said she had never declared that she would not follow up the prosecution, only she was afraid the three gentlemen would advertise her and her father. Mr. Drew examined—l am a chemist and druggist. I was in company with two friends at Copenhagen house on the 25th of March. Two of the prisoners and the prosecutrix were present. There was another man present. Shortly afterwards they all went out together. The men appeared rather intoxicated. 1 heard one of them call the woman hie wife. I did not hear much indecent language, I did not hear the woman make use of any. Five or six minutes after they left the house I heard a s cream. It did not at fi rst appear as if proceeding from person in violent distress. I threw up the window and the screams increased, accompanied with loud cries of murder. I, and my friends, and the waiter then went out, it was quite dark, but the cries continuing, we found the spot from whence they proceeded. I saw the woman on the ground struggling with Warren, one of the prisoners. I called him a rascal, and seized him by the collar. I then lifted the woman up, but she was unable to stand. I saw ahoat 10 yards off two men standing in the hedge, they shortly afterwards came up and treated the matter very lightly. They said to the girl, "Pooh, pooh, do not stop crying here, put on your bonnet and go home." The woman then told me, that she been ill used, and begged to be protected from any further insults of the prisoners. I afterwards accompanied her to her father's house. Cross-examined by Mr. CLA kr sox—The woman smiled at the time the prisoners made use of obscene language, and behaved in a very different manner to what a modest woman would do. She requested witness not to say that she had told him that she had gone to Copenhagen -house at the desire of her brother, a discharged policeman ; and added, "she cared less for her own disgrace than that Ler mother should hear any thing about her brother." Mr. Metcalfe corroborated the evidence of the last Witness. Mr. Groom, an attorney, gave a similar account of the transaction. The prosecutrix said she would rather drown herself than any one should know any thing about it ; she particularly wished it not to come to the knowledge of her mother, as, if it did, she (her mother) would lead her such a terrible life Dismore, a policeman—l apprehended the pri soner Warren on the 27th of March ; I told him it was ou a charge of rap e; h e sa id i t was d r i nking that had brought him into such trouble. He asked me for the ad dress of the prosecutrix, in order that he might send some person to compromise the affair. Abraham Stannard—l apprehended Smith in Leather lane; the prosecutrix pointed him out to me—Smith said, "If the woman speaks the truth she will hang us. Cross -examined —The prisoner appeared much excited. I told him he had better hold his tongue. 'William Henry Ilankinson, setjeant of police, exa- Inined—l apprehended Mile's; the woman was with me it the time; she said t o hi m, " You used me ill on Thurs day evening." He replied, "It was the effects of drunk enness and larking," and begged that in consideration of his wife and family she would not press the charge against John bey Miles Bosail-4 am an i nspector of the police, I remem being brought to the watch-house, he appeared much d e j ected, the prosecutrix was present, she stink back into the chair, and said, ill used me." He said, I deny that I treated you with any " that is one of the men that violence, 1 Miles' wife shortly afterwards came in, they both seemed much affected, and he said, " it is a very bad job, if the woman ' s word is taken it will go hard with us, and turning to me, added, if we think of it as men, it ix only right that her word should he taken, is it, Sir." Mr. Dodd examined —I ant a surgeon in Gosweli street. On the 27th of March the prosecutrix was brought bruises, mt . I examined her person ; there did not appear any (The witness here technically described her ap l'earaxxe-) She s eemed to have suffered some violence. remmber Eliza Owlen, moth er of the prosecutrix examined—l my daught er b e i ng brought home ley three gent l emen on the 25th of March ; her clothes were much torn, and she appeared to have been much injured. This was the case for the prosecution. The prisoners all protested their innocence. After several witneues had been examined for the de_ SMITHFIELD MARKET. This day's supply was good both as to number and quality. The beasts from Norfolk, which formed nearly or quite seven-eighths of the bullock part of it, were on the average, exceedingly prime, as were also those from Sussex and Kent. The trade, though advanced prices were de manded in the early part of the day, was throughout very dull, at nothing beyond Thursday's quotations. ;ion or re. pers, cow. axed as to from this imption of its will be id also on s to mans informed on whom ! it in con iigh moral the &fill" rn of social ►unities.

NEW COURT. The COMMON SEB.JEANT arrived in Court soon after nine o'clock. James Sheridan was indicted for stealing a basket, containing a leg of pork, the property of John Johnston, on the sth of March last, at St. Pancras.—Guilty. Thomas Grigg, a youth of 13 years of age, was in dict,td for stealing, in the parish of St. Luke, a pair of hoots, value 25., being the property of John Murray, on the 25th of February last.—Guilty. Mary Reardon was indicted for stealing, at Islington, a great number of articles of wearing apparel.—Guilty. Thomas Wallier, William Wallier, and William Piper, were indicted for breaking into the house of Messrs. Hill, proprietors of a school at Tottenham, on the 7th of January last, and taking from out of it one saw, two gitnblets, and one hammer, being the property of the Messrs. Hill ; and a pair of shoes, a round frock, and a waistcoat, the property of George Cox. Before the trial commenced the prisoners requested the Court to have all the witnesses rem( ved, and examined se parately, as they should be required. The Couax assented to the request. . _ Mr. BODKIN conducted the prosecution. The pri soners were employed to work in the garden of Messrs. Hill, on the 7th of January, at the time of the robbery ; the garden-house had been made fast on the evening pre vious to the robbery, the articles in question were in this house ; in the morning an aperture was made large enough only to admit one man ; it would be material for the Jury to know that there was snow on the ground at the time of the robbery, and in this snow certain marks of foot steps were distinctly seen ; there was a peculiarity in one of those marks, which was unavoidably larger at the heel than the other, and it would be shown in evidence, that the elder prisoner (Waffler) bad some time ago met with an accident which obliged him to wear a shoe considerably larger than the ordinary size. Edmond Hill examined—Had a garden-house in his premises, any person going into it must enter a fence be fore they could get to that building, the fence surrounded the house in question. George Cox examined—Was in the employment of Mr. Hill, at Tottenham ; recollects the morning the garden house was robbed ; remembers having made fast the house about six o'clock on the previous evening ; there were a saw, two gimblets, and a hammer, belonging to Mr. Hill, and a pair of shoes, a round frock, and a waistcoat belong ing to witness, in the house then, which were not there in the morning. Cross-examined by Mr. BAILAY.I4 a pauper; was sent to work there by the parish officers, who paid witness and rut Mr. Hill ; saw the property that was lost some weeks ago. . Thornas \Talker examined—Was employed with the last witness at the school in Tottenham—when going to work one morning observed some foot-marks in the snow; the mark of one foot was as if the heel was larger than any others; traced them to the bottom of the garden. Cross-examined.—lt was about 20 rods from the win dow where he observed the marks; the last witness and he generally lock up the house. John Fowler—ls a constable ; on the:27th of February last searched the prisoner Piper's house, where he found a saw and two gimblets ; Piper had been taken before. Cross.examined.—Took several duplicates from the prisoner's wife ; Piper was not present when he found the saw and gimblets. Re-examined.—The elder Wallier wears a very thick shoe, in consequence of having broken his leg. James Griffiths examined.—ls a constable; searched the Walli. rs' house. Old Wallier was not there when witness went in; he had gone away before that ; took him afterwards in Herefordshire, when he (old Wallier) said that he was sorry he had gone away, and that he knew what he came about. Two female witnesses (relatives of the prisoners) were produced for the defence, who swore that the saw and the waistcoat were purchased by two of the prisoners. The. Jury found William Piper and Thomas Wallier— Guilty. William Wallier—Not Guilty. The Court directed that the two last witnesses should be kept in custody. THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY) CORN-EXCHANGE. The arrivals of most kinds of Grain last week were con siderable, with a large quantity of Flour coastwise, and many foreign ships with Wheat. The select samples of Wheat have obtained the prices of this day se'nnight, but for all other kinds the trade is very dull, at 2s. per qr. re duction in prin.,. The Barley trade remains the same as on this day week, with a slow sale. Beans that are dry are rather, dearer. Pease of both kinds are unaltered. The factors are asking much higher prices for Oats, but tho buyers arc unwilling to comply, and the sales that have been made do not warrant the prices to be stated more than Is. per qr. higher than last Monday. The dullness still continues in the Flour trade, and prices are unaltered. PRICES ON BOARD OF SNIP. ' Wheat, Red (old) —s. —s. Beans, Small (new)... —a. —s. —White (old) —s.

If it be difficult to learn to swim, it is in finitely more so to dive. In my first attempts I Could only descend about six feet, and was im mediately obliged to rise again to the surface, but by degrees I got down to three or four fathoms ; at which depth the pressure of the water upon the ears is so great, that I can only compare it to a sharp-pointed iron instrument being violently forced into that organ. My stay under water, therefore, at this depth was extremely short ; but as I have been assured that so soon as the ears should burst, as it is technically called by the divers, there would be no difficulty in descend ing to any depth ; and wishing to become an accomplished diver, I determined to brave the excessive pain till the bursting should, as it were, liberate me from a kind of cord which limited my ravage downwards, in the same way that the ropes of a balloon confine the progress of that machine upwards. Accordinglyoaking a leap from the bows of the boat, full of hope and resolution, with my fingers knit together over my head, the elbows straight, and keeping myself steadily in the inverse order of nature, namely, with my feet perpendi cularly upwards, the impetus carried me down about four fathoms, when it became necessary to assist the descent by means of the hands and legs ; but, alas ! who can count upon the firm ness of his resolution ? The change of tempera ture from warm to cold is most sensibly felt. Every fathom fills the imagination with some new idea of the dangerous folly of penetrating further into the silent dominions of reckless monsters, where the skulls of the dead make perpetual grimaces, and the yawning jaws of sharks and tintereros, or the death-embrace of the manta, lie in wait for us. These impressions were augmented by the impossibility of the vision penetrating the twilight by which I was sur rounded, together with the excruciating pain that I felt in my cars and eyes ; in short, my mind being assailed by a thousand incomprehen sible images, I ceased striking with my hands and legs ; I felt myself receding from the bottom ; the delightful thought of once more beholding the blue heavens above me got the better of every other reflection ; I involuntarily changed the position of my body and, in the next instant, found myself once more on the surface. How did my bosom inflate with the rapid inspirations of my natural atmosphere, and a sensation of in describable pleasure spread over every part of the body, as though the spirit were rejoicing at its liberation from its watery peril ! In fact, it was a new sensation which I cannot describe. I did not suffer it however to be of long duration,—once more I essayed with a more fixed determination. Again I felt myself gliding through the slippery water, which, from its density, gave one the idea of swimming through a thick jelly ; again I experienced the same change of temperature in the water as I descended ; and again the agonizing sensation in my ears and eyes made me waver. But now, reason and resolution urged me on, although every instant the pain increased as 1 descended ; and at the depth of six or seven fathoms, I felt a sensation in my ears like that produced by the explosion of a gun ; at the same moment I lost all sense of pain, and after wards reached the bottom, which I explored with a facility which I had thought unattainable. Unfortunately, I met with no oysters to repay me for my perseverance ; and as I found myself exhausted fbr want of air, I seized hold of a stone to prove that I had reached the bottom at eight fathoms water, and rose to the top with a triumph as great as if I. had obtained a treasure. I no sooner found myself on the surface than I became sensible of what had happened to my ears, eyes, and mouth ; I was literally bleeding from each of these, though wholly unconscious of it. But now was the greatest danger in diving, as the sharks, ►nantas, and tintereros, have an astonishingly quick scent for blood.— However, I was too much pleased with my suc cess to attend to the advice of the diver, and I continued the practice till I had collected a con- siderable number of shells, out of which I hoped to reap a rich harvest. But although constancy has a great deal to do with success, it will not command it ! Six very small pearls were all that the large number of shells produced, although many of the oysters were large, and evi dently of considerable age ; but, like myself, they were "quite old enough to be better."—Hardys Travels in Mexico. An experi►ne►►t of a novel and extraordinary description was undertaken here (Derby) last week in the transplantation of a tree of large dimensions, the weeping ash, which has so long been the admiration of the public. This beautiful tree has been removed, without sustaining an y damage, to the picturesque domains of Chatsworth, where his Grace the Duke of DEVONSHIRK has selected a most favourable and appropriate situation for it in the north front of his princely mansion. On wresting up the tree with the well-adapted and powerful machine_ applied for the purpose it is calculated that the resistance of about fourteen tons of soil in which its widely-spreading roots were embedded was to he overcome. The weight of the tree in the state in which it was conveyed, a distance of twenty-eight miles, to its present situation, is understood to be from seven to eight tons. One of the roots drawn up had extended itself to more than twenty-eight feet from the bole of the tree.—Derby Reporter. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, APRIL 17.—Extract of a letterfrom a British Officer, dated Constantinople, March 11, 1830 :—" Upon the prop::sal of the English Am bassador, Vice Admiral 'Tahir Pacha will be de spatched to Algiers, for the purpose of persuading the Dey to come to au arrangement with France, and of pointing out to him the dangers he would be exposed to in• case a strong body of Freneh troops should effect a landing. A favourable result from Tahir Pacha's mission is looked for here, since the Dey will, no doubt, listen to a Turkish Ambassador before any other. The sail disasters lately expe rienced by the - Porte may also serve him as a lesson not to trifle with a power like that of Ranee. Tahir Paella will have full powers to act in ease of neces sity as mediator between the Dey and the. French Government. Between Constantinople and Alex andria a regular conveyance for letters will forthwith be established, in which two steam-vessels are to be employed. His Britannic Majesty's ship Blond is lying at anchor at this port." The Amity transport artived this afternoon in 118 days from the Mauritius. She touched at the Cape of Good Hope, which she left on the 25th January ; at St. Helena, which she quitted on the 9th February; and at Ascension, whence she sailed on the 16th. The Maidstone and Falcon were the only ships at the Cape when the Amity sailed. His Majesty's ships Eden and Chanticleer accompanied the Eden from St. Helena to Ascension. The Eden was to proceed in a few days to Rio Janeiro; the Chanticleer was to remain at Ascension about three months. His Majesty's ship Espoir, was lying at St. Helena when the Amity sailed. As cension was perfectly healthy, and was greatly thriving. The Amity brings home Major Mair, 99th Regiment, Captain Webb (41st Regiment) and family, Lieutenant Martendale, R. S. C., Lieu tenant Douglas, 44th Regiment, Lieutenant Good hall, 55th Regiment, Lieutenant Nagel, 82d Regi ment, and D. B. Conway, Esq. surgeon, R. N. and 85 soldiers, 10 women, and 22 children. We regret to mention the death of Commander Griffenhoofe, of his Majesty's sloop Primrose, at the Island of Ascension, on the 10th of February. He had been landed, for better accommodation, having long suffered under a pulmonary complaint. The Primrose was at sea on a short cruise, to await his recovery, which it was hoped would have been aided by a residence on shore. His Majesty's ship Hecla (surveying vessel), Commander Harding, arrived on Tuesday from Ascension, after a long passage, having left that island on the 29th of January, at which time were lying there the Primrose, 18 guns, and the Black Joke (tender to the Sybille). Out of a crew composed of eighty-one, such has been the fatality in the Hecla, that thirty-five only remain. She has returned to England to recruit her strength, and renovate the health of such of the ship's company as remain. On her passage she spoke the Sir John Rae Read, from the Isle of France, the flourishing condition of which island was represented to be very great. A survey was this day taken at Spithead of the state of the Hecla, and it has been found such as to induce a belief that she will be paid off. Extract of a letter dated his Majesty's ship Athol, Sierra Leone, February 15, 1830 :—" I am happy that I have it in my power to give you a favour able account of the health of our squadron on the coast of Africa, and indeed the whole of our colo nies, from Fernando Po to Sierra Leone. We left the former place on the 20th of December, all in good health, when Colonel Nichols, the Governor, and Captain Morgan, of the garrison, were quite well. We arrived at Prince's Island on the 2d of January, met there Commodore Collier, in the Sybille; Medina, Captain Webb; Primrose, Clinker, and Plumper, all very healthy. In consequence of this full meeting of the squadron, the foll,wing promotions and appointments took place :—Lieutenant Adams, first of the Athol, to command the Plumper, vice Geer, invalided; Mr. Edward B. Nott, of the Sybille, to be Lieuten ant of the Athol ; Mr. E. H. Butterfield, of the Sybille, to be Lieutenant of the Primrose, vice Agossitz, invalided ; Mr. Charles Cleveland,Mas ter's Assistant of the Athol, to be Master of the Plumper, vice H. Strutt, invalided. We touched at Accra on our passage to this place, at which we arrived yesterday, and after completing our water and provisions we shall proceed to the Gambia and Cape de Verd Islands. The Athol has not ex perienced any sickness attributable to this climate; Mr. Campbell, the boatswain, and William Gib bons, a private mariner, belonger to her, died at the Hospital at Sierra Leone; they were both beyond recovery prior to their arrival on this station." The Briton, 46, Captain the Hon. William Gor don, M.P., which arrived on Sunday, brought to England 780,000/. dollars, having left a very large supply at the Havannah. Nearly three millions of dollars were waiting for embarkation at Vera Cruz and Tampico, which the merchants were reluctant to forward by men of war, not being able to rely, they state, on such ships making the shortest pas sage, the exigencies of his Majesty's service fre quently delaying them on the West India station several months after they had made shipment of specie. The attention of Government is now draw►► to this subject, and more direct facilities will, in future, be afforded. The Briton was forty days on her passage from the Havannah. She came into harbour on Thursday, to be paid off, and re-corn mi.sioned, it is reported, for the broad pendant on the coast of Africa. His Majesty's ship Winchester, 52, Captain J. A. Austen (with the flag of Vice-Admiral Griffith Colpoys), arrived at Teneriffe on the 25th Feb., and sailed the following day direct for Barbadoes. The last accounts received from his Majesty's ship Barham (bearing the flag of Vice-Admiral Fleeming) report that the number of deaths from the effect of climate, since her arrival on the West India station, does not on board of that ship exceed 20, and that of the squadron, consisting of 2,700 men, certainly not more than 200 during the last three years. When the Barham was last at Ja maica the same feeling appeared to exist which had been evinced towards Admiral Fleeming two years previously. The difference between Admiral Flem ing and the House of Assembly, it is understood, arose from the following circumstances :—On the Admiral's first arrival on the station the pen allotted for the residence of the Naval Commander in-Chief was found to be so dilapidated as to admit the rain through almost every part of its wooden roof. This obliged the Admiral to seek and hire a residence in a more healthy situation, at his own expense, for himself and family, to prevent the ill consequences arising from damp, which had proved fatal to some of his establishment. These circum stances were represented to the House of Assembly who appointed a Committee to investigate them, but not any step has been taken to put the pen in repair. The other point to which the difference is attributed was the refusal of the House of Assem bly to make a road up to the Mountain Hospital, an establishment for convalescent seamen (suggested, from philanthrophie views, by the Admiral) although the expense of the undertaking would not have ex ceeded 200/. The refusal of so paltry a grant, for the benefit and comfort of those seamen whose ex ertions for the protection of their commerce is unde niable (scarcely an act of piracy having been com mitted during the two last years), is said to have given the Admiral much displeasure.

Meyrick Beebie, to be Chaplain of the Sybille, on the Coast of Africa. The following Midshipmen passed their examina tion for Lieutenants, at the Royal Naval College, last week :—Messrs. John Willoughby Conway and George W.:clehouse, his Majesty's ship North Star; James Thomas Caldwell, Victory; George Bott, Undaunted; James M'Cleverty, Scylla; R. M.

F. Cleaveland, Nau tilus; Henry Dowsing Rogers, and George Wm. Winlow, Spartiate. The Victory, of 100 guns, will be paid off on the 30th of this month, and Admiral Sir Thomas Foley will hoist his flag as Commander-in-Chtef at this port in the Ganges, 84, until the Caledonia, 120, is ready. This latter will be commissioned in a few days by Capt. Hyde Parker. Commander Osborn Foley, and Mr. J. P. Bailey, Purser, will be ap pointed to her. The Victory and Boyne are to be cut down to second rates, and the Anson, of 74 guns (never at sea), is to be reduced to a frigate. The Spartiate, 76, is to be laid up in ordinary. His Majesty's ship Pelican is ordered to be re commissioned at Chatham, and to fit for the Medi- terranean. We are gratified in stating that letters have been received this week from the new Settlement at Swart River, from an officer in the army, representing to his family the location as most excellent in every point of view. He is about twelve miles from the sea-shore, and describes the climate and soil as ex cellent, with abundance of water and wood. Its geographical situation is unquestionably good, with reference to the Indian settlement, the Mauritius, and the Cape of Good Hope. By letters from China, dated October 22, we find that the dispute between the English Factory and the Chinese Authorities remained unsettled. Capt.. Hine, the senior naval officer, on the day at which the last letter was dated, had directed the pursers and surgeons of the ships to leave Canton immedi ately, and the ships would not proceed up the river. It appears the Viceroy had refused to make any eltes ration in the customary cumshaw or present, which ;s exacted indiscriminately from all ships (small as well as large, (of 1,950 tales of 7s. each, under the name of tonnage duty. The Select Committee had represented this as an unjust imposition. This, how ever, was only one of several grievances or which the Company's Factory complain. The Viceroy had sent foradvice to Pekin,and it was probable that the ships would be detained six months. Trade was of course much inconvenienced by the dispute, and the want of money among the Chinese was felt to be not a little increased by the additional vigi lance the mandarins evinced to stop the smuggling trade in opium. Cotton had fallen six or eight mace per pecul ; opium, iron, and lead were on the de crease ; cochineal and South American copper was on the rise. Fine cotton yarn was in demand. The India ships' ventures were generally dull of sale, the Chinamen expecting to get them at less prices. The new teas for the season were daily arriving for shipment ; raw silks and nankeens were very low. To afford some recreation to our seamen during the time that must elapse before any answer could be received from Pekin respecting the dispute, regattas were introduced, one of which took place on the Bth of October, in Toon-Koo Roadstead, when six single-banked boats contended for a sweepstakes of fifty dollars each, which was won by the Lady Mel vine's Shamrock. Eleven double-banked boats also raced for a sweepstakes of fifty dollars, which, after an excellent contest, was won by the Hereford shire's Red Rover. Lord Melville is on a visit of inspection at Pem broke Dock-yard.— Hampshire Telegraph. DRVONPORT, APRIL 19.—His Majesty's ship Caledonia, 120, is expected to be commissioned on Friday next, by Captain Hyde Parker, for the flag of Admiral Sir Thomas Foley, the new Commander in-Chief at Portsmouth. Commander Dixon, and Mr. J. P. Bailey, of Stonehouse, Purser, (1807) are appointed to the Caledonia. This fine ship being new free, we have ascertained her draft water since she was rebuilt, which is nineteen feet one inch, forward; and sixteen feet one inch, abaft. When launched in 1808, she only drew eighteen feet two inches, forward; and fifteen feet ten inches abaft. _ _ The Union, 101, has been brought down the harbour this week, and been taken into the dock vacated by the Caledonia, to be cut down to the same force and establishment as the Ocean, 80. The Albion, 74, is to be converted into a receiving hulk. We hear that attempts are making to set aside the verdict of the late Court Martial on Com mander Russel, of the Wolf, en the ground of some informality in the proceedings.—Devonport Tel. DR. DODDRIDGE.—The third volume of the correspondence of this great and good man with various distinguished persons of his time is announced for imme diate publication. It will contain, we understand, letters from the following among numerous others :—Dr. WAR BURTON, Dr. WATTS, Lord lIALIFAx, Dr. REYNOLDS, Rev. DAVID JENNINGS, Rev. J. BARKER, Rev. SAMUEL CLARK, Rev. J. JONES, Rev. DAVID SOME, Rev. I. PEARCE, Rev. G. COSTARD, Rev. R. PEARSALL, Lady FRANCES GARDINER, Rev. D. FORDYCE, Rev. J. LE LAND, Rev. Z. SCOTT. WATERLOO.—The events that immediately preceded and followed a struggle unparalleled in the wars of modern times, must for ever remain subjects of singu lar importance ; yet how many exploits, adventures, and remarkable scenes has history, in the detail of more strik ing features, entirely overlooked ! It• is therefore with much pleasure we observe that this prolific subject is likely to receive much additional illustration, by the pub lication of a work entitled "Personal .IVitrrative of an Officer in the English Army of Occupation in France:. On the 14th inst. a tremendous riot took place at the gates of Sheerness dock-yard, in consequence of information having been given by one of the wardens that a particular individual among the mechanics had in his possession " King's stores." So throng and dense were the people that hail collected to be revenged of this warden, that three constables and Commissioner Lawns were insufficient to protect this poor man (who 'had only done his duty) to his house at Mile town ; but upon arriving at the barrier-gate, it was deemed necessary to have the assistance of the military guard to save the man's life. Every sort of threat and disgraceful language was made use of by the mobility, and we are sorry to learn that Commissioner Lawns suffered considerably from the bricks and stones that assailed him, while protecting this indi vidual to his house. It appears that no Magistrate is to be found nearer than Sittingbourn, should it be necessary to read the riot act at Sheerness. The mechanic accused of secreting King's stores pleaded guilty, therefore the Commissioners fined him 101. and discharged him from t he yard. FOREIGN i g e n v e l et t g e r e s . , nerall y which come to England through the post-office at Paris, might arrive in this country two or three days earlier th an POSTS.—It is is nsoo,t, that w a e t f b or e e l i known, though the at present by a very simple arrangement. The mails from Spain, and, we believe, alma from Italy and Switzerland, arrive in Paris two hours after the departure of the regular post, but three hours before the departure of the Estafette from Paris to Calais, and all that is necessary to effect the facility of communication to which we allude is, for the Post-office department in London to arrange with the same department in France that the letters for this country should come by the Estafette, instead of by the post. This subject has been taken up by the Merchants and others in London, who have memorialized the Postmaster-General ; and it is desirable that the great manufacturing and com mercial towns of the North of England, particularly Lce is, Manchester, and Huddersfield, should co-operate with them. We mention these places specially, because in each of them the market-day is held en the Tuesday, and be cause the foreign letters, with orders, remittances, &c., which now arrive the day after the market, would, by the proposed alteration, arrive the day before it. —Leeds Mercury.
