THE CO SSI ONE It Sof the NORTHERN LIGHTHOUSES, hereby give dot' NORTHERN that . a LIGHTHOUSE has been ERECTED u pon TARBETNESS, in the MORAY FRITH, the li ght of whi c h w ill b e ex hibit e d on th e n i g ht o f FRIDAY, t ne 2 9th , day of January current, and every night there 'Stet from the going away of daylight in the evening till the return of daylight in the mot ning. The following is a Specification of the position of the Lighthouse, and the appearance of the Light, by Mr. Stevenson, Engineer to the Commissioners:— • Tarbetness forms the north-eastern extremity, of Cro litlartyshire, sit ua t e i n l a t. 57 d eg . 54 min. north, and in ,"11. 3 deg. 47 m i n . west , distant a bout 12 miles from t he entrance to Cremarty Frith. By Compass, the Light kave beats from the sunken rocks called the Three Kings and the King's Sons, N.E. 4 E. distant nine miles; from Rallimsn's Scares, lying off Covesea or CoWsey Point, 4 W. distant 18 miles ; from Clythness S.W. by W. distant 31 miles ; and from Culloden Rock, W. "Y S. distant one mile. Tarbetness Light will be known to Mariners as an In termittent Light, suddenly appearing like a star of the first Magnitud e , and continuing in view 21 minutes, when it is suddenly eclipsed for half a minute; thus producing its el taracteristin effect once in every t h ree minutes. It must, however, be observed, that within the Moray Frith, in a m uth-westerly direction from Tarbetness, where the Light cannot be mistaken for any other on the Coast, it will be permanently visible, until the Mariner pass within a Line drawn from Tarbetness through a point half a mile sea :"d of the King's Sons, when it will be intercepted from la view by the high land of the coast. The interception ° i f the light by the land will thus form a direction to avoid toast 'dangerous Rocks. t l The L antern is open or glazed seaward from S.W. W. ' W . N. and is el e vat e d 175 f ee t above the medium level of the sea. The Light, in clear weather, will be seen at the distance of five or six leagues, and at lesser distances, according to the state of the atmosphere. houseßy order o f the Commissioners of the Northern Light s, Edinburgh 14th January, ICI33O7NINGHAM, Sec. 0 0.

Yesterday having been appointed for the final ex amination of Lieutenant Lambrecht, Mr. Frederick Cox; and Mr. Dudley Byrne, the parties implicated in the late duel at Battersea-fields, which proird' fatal to Mr. Oliver Clayton, at an early hour the policte-offiCe; Union-ball, was crowded with their friends and other parsons who were anxious to hear the proceedings. The following evidence was adduced, in addition to that taken at the Coroner's inquest, and which has already appeared : Curtis, an officer of Union-hall, examined—On Monday, the Ilth instant, I attended at the Red House, and was present at the inquest held on the body of Mr. Clayton. While there, Hall, the chief constable, having received informatioa relative to Mr. Cox, I was directed to Glass's lock-up-house, in Chancery-lane, where I saw that gentleman. On seeing him he exclaimed, " I am aware what you want with me." I then told him that 1 came there to apprehend him on the charge of murder, he be ing one of the seconds in the duel. He admitted that he was second to Lieutenant Lambrecht in the affair, and that acting in that capacity he had, with the concurrence of that gentleman, offered a verbal apology both previous to and on their meeting on the ground, which, however, was rejected by Mr. Clayton and also by his second. Mr. Cox further said that Lieutenant Lambrecht was half inclined to give a written apology. The business, however, proceeded, and immediately after the shots were fired Lieutenant Lambrecht ran towards the de ceased, who was then lying on the ground, when the hitter gave him his hand, ejaculating at the same time—" I forgive you." Mr. Cox then told witness that he and Lieutenant Lambrecht left the ground together. He also mentioned to witness that he had some letters relative to the duel, which he was desirous should not be taken out of his pos session. After this conversation the witness saw a Mr. Whitehead at the same house in Chancery-lane who informed him that some letters belonging to Mr. Cox, and which had reference to the duel, were then lying on a table in a room up stairs. The officer took possession of the letters, and they were at this stage of the investigation produced. The Magistrates inquired whether the communi cations were of a private nature, or bad reference to the unfortunate transaction then under consideration. The reply was, that their production was necessary for the parties implicated in the unfortunate affair. The reading of the letters was therefore decided upon. The first, which we subjoin, was addressed to Lieut. Lambrecht, and is to the following effect : " Jan. 5, 1830. " Sxu,—Not having heard from you up to this hour, it is impossible both for myself and my friend, Mr. Clayton, to wait under such uncertainty, as we have both matters which require our attention, independently of the expense I am necessarily put to in stopping at this hotel; but I shall he ready to attend your friend's appointment, having at least two clear days' notice, whether two, three, or four months hence. The sooner, however, this matter is brought to a close the better, as it is impossible, after what has transpired, any thing short of a meeting can sati-fy my friend, Mr. Clayton. As to the circumstance to which you have alluded, of his having been flogged by that ruf fianly vagabond Madden, I beg to say I have in my pos session that which will fully explain this matter, and in such manner as must for ever set at rest the possibility of any od:um being attached to my friend. I therefore ch be obliged by your favouring . me with a note addressed to the Tower, informing me when you have made arrange ments with your friend, and directed to Henry Bigley, jun., which will prevent the transaction being known to my family.—l am, Sir, your very obedient servant, " HENRY BIGLEY, Jun. " To Lieutenant Lambrecht. (" A true copy, F. Cox.)" The following reply to the challenge sent Lieute nant Lambrseht was also read; it was addressed to Mr. Bigley, and was dated Thursday night : " As the friend of Mr. Lambrecht, I have to inform you that he will be ready to meet your friend Mr. Clay ton to-morrow morning by day-break near the Red House at Battersea. (Signed) " F. COX." Mr. Wood, the proprietor of the hotel where the deceased was staying, identified the persons of Mr. Lainbrecht and Mr. Byrne, both of whom were in the habit of frequenting his house. He rt cal! c s the latter having come there after the duel was over, and did not absent himself from the coffee-room. In answer to a question put by a Magistrate, the witness said, that on hearing the result of the duel, he certainly did order Mr. Lambrecht to leave the house; but that had no other motive for it than that that • t *Man was a principal in the fatal affair. 4. 1 Price, " °;"- ng man, servant to the deceased, was called, and .. :id, that although Mr. Byrne accom panied Mr. Clayton and his second to Battersea, yet that he did not present himself on the ground, but remained with him (witness) at a considerable dis tance off, and out of sight of what was going for ward, until it was all over; he then went to the as sistance of Mr. Clayton on hearing the shots fired. Hall, the chief constable, here produced a small red leather pocket-book, which was found in Mr. Clayton's left-hand waistcoat pocket after the duel was over, and when he was taken into the Red House. It contained letters and memorandums, and was perforated by the ball which passed through the body of the unfortunate deceased. The following letter from the deceased to Colonel Fairman was then read : it was dated from Wood's Hotel, and ran thus : " Di:AR FAIIMAN,—I have been looking for yon this week past in consequence of a scampy, cowardly, drunken bully representing my having received with impunity th e cerem , my of a horsewhipping. That the operation has been performed on me by a ruffian of the name of Madden, I must admit ; anti as you have been, unfortunately like myself, brought under the roof with the same rascal, 1 shall feel much obliged if you will give me a written opinion of the man I allude to. He kept a gin store in the Fleet during the time we were incarcerated in that infernal place. Do you think the ruffianly attack he made uponitne, accompanied by about 20 or 30 other vaga bonds, deprives me of the right of thinking, acting, and feeling as a gentleman ? " I am very sincerely yours, "To Colonel Fairman." " OLIVER CLAYTON." The following was also read :-- " Morgan can answer the charge against Mr. Clayton by Lieutenant Lambrecht, and will favour the undersigned with his statement, every satisfaction a gentleman can require will be rendered to the party offended. If not, all further discussion on the subject must be worse than useless. (Signed) " GEORGE BETOE, Ordnance Dept. " 36, Grosvenor-place, Mr. CHAMBERS here desired the whole evidence to be read over, and told the accused that they were at perfect liberty to put any questions to the wit nesses that they might deem proper. Subsequently to tl'e depositions having been gone through, Price was asked what distance he and Mr. Byrne were from the spot where the duel took place. Price said that they were at least a dozen yards, and that it was impossible to see any of the parties on the ground, as they were round a corner. The witness also stated that Mr. Byrne did not take the pistols from the coach to the ground. Mr. Harmer, on the behalf of Mr. Byrne, sub mitted that there was no evidence to prove that his client was at all a party in the unfortunate affair.— He was a highly respectable young man, although serving in a subordinate situation under Mr. Clayton, who was suppOsed to possess controul over him, and had induced him to accompany him on the morning in question, without giving him any infor mation as to what his intentions were. Under these mitigatory circumstances, Mr. Harmer trusted his client would be therefore discharged. Lieut. Lambrecht, in justice to his fellow-pri soner Mr. Byrne, must not let this opportunity pass without a declaration to the effect that during the duel that gentleman did not appear on the ground. Mr. Cox also declared that Mr. Byrne did not make hisaippearance on the ground, except for the purpose of addressing Lieutenant Lambrecbt, and after the duel was over to assist the deceased. Mr. CHAMBERS observed, that it was his duty, ffom the evidence adduced, to commit Mr. Lam brecht and Mr. Cox, as principal and second in the late unfortuate duel, for trial. With respect to Mr. Byrne, it had been proved that he accompanied Mr. Clayton and his second to the ground, and he was therefore to he considered in the light of an acces sory. An application, however, might be made at the Judge's Chambers for hail, if it was considered necessary by Mr. Harmer for his client. The prisoners were then committed for trial.

A poor woman, named Hannah Arnold, appeared at the Justice-room with three female children, which she had brought forth at one birth, to beg re lief in her distress. She had, she said, been brought to bed of the children on the 12th of September last, but, on account of her poverty, she had not been able to afford herself the necessary aliment to meet such constant sources of exhaustion. She had, she said, four other young children at home, so that all that she and her husband could do would not be adequate to support so large a family, and they had no parish to apply to for the slightest assistance.. Sir P. LAURIE said, the applications for relief far exceeded tiv means. and if a woman who had three children at a birth were to succeed in her petition, there would soon be applications from those who would be able to produce four. The mother had no way of helping herself. She lodged in a wretched place, at No. 96, Grub-street, and the three babes would soon make a shadow of her. Sir PETER stated, that in cases of the kind, an under such exigent circumstances, a woman must look to the sympathies of her immediate neighbours. An aged pensioner, with a grey head, a venerable stoop in his shoulder, and a very ugly face, was brought up, charged with being the father of an il!e gitimate child. The mother, a little squat servant maid, said, that she had been prevailed upon by the incessant solicitations of the veteran to do " what was wrong," and that her present conditiou was the result. Sir PETER LAURIE asked her how she could be persuaded by such an object to have any intercourse with him. She replied,, that they lodged in the same house, and he was always after her, and would never let her alone by no means, so that she could'nt help herself. The parish officers said that the old gentleman had consented to pay to the mother for the support of the child the sum of half-a-crown a week, out of his pension of 10s. With this allowance they were satisfied, but he had of late taken it into his head, that the child of which the young woman was preg nant was not quite his own.—(Laughter.) The pensioner then raised his head, and looking at the girl with a auspicious eye, said he believed that some fello%l s put the child upon him. He was led the more to credit this, as he had had nothing to do with her for 14 months.—(Laughter.) The mother indignantly repelled this insinuation, and declared that they had Leen together in a great variety of places on as familiar terms as possible. Sir PETER. LAURIE confirmed the order, and rt.- proved the girl for her unblushing conduct. GUILDHALL. John Kiteehone, a journeyman tailor, was charged with stealing several cuts of superfine cloth, value lal. The prisoner was committed for trial. ST. KATHARINE DOCKS. Yesterday the first meeting of the Company, for the purpose of declaring a dividend, was held at the Dock-House, St. Katharine's. J. TOOKE, Esq. in the Chair. Mr. Hsu., the Secretary, real the Report of the Directors, from which we gathered that the total cost of the site of the Docks, and of all the works and buildings within the boundary wall, amounted to 1,933,172/. 19s. 3d. The value of the freehold property of the Compay not required for the im mediate purposes of the Act, consisting of buildings public-houses, &c. and of wharfs lying between the Tower and East Smithfield, one of which was fitting up for the accommodation of steam vessels, so as to afford to passengers the means of landing and em barking at all periods, without being subjected to the risk of boat conveyance, is estimated at 115,6661. Amount required to meet the additional outlay which it is proposed to raise by an issue of debentures, reserving the rights of the holders of those already issued, 196,9951. — Of such additional outlay the excess upon the estimates is 45,321/. ls. 2d., the remaining sums being required to defray the expense of addition-al works, &c. and contingencies. The report further stated, that the western dock and buildings - sur rounding the same have been open for business since November, 1828 ; that in the interval (about four teen months) 816 vessels have entered the basin and western dock, 80 of which were from 300 to 800 tons register, forming an aggregate of 133,578 register tons ; besides 1,300 lighters, with upwards of 20,000 tons of merchandize for deposit in the warehouses ; of those vessels 448 discharged their cargoes in the Docks, amounting to 71,032 tons, which, with the quantity lightered in, makes a total landed of 91,032 tons of goods. The report went on to state, that the capacity of water-room, both in depth and surface, to admit and ac commodate, whether for discharging or load ing, the largest size and number of ships that were ever calculated upon in the outset of the undertaking has been established beyond controversy. That the eastern dock was opened in November last for the admission of ships, the buildings surrounding the same are in so advanced a state as to justify an expectation that the whole will be finished by the third of May next, the anniversary of laying the first stone ; so that the work will have been accomplished in three years from the commencement, ►luring the half of which interval the western dock and build- ings have been rendered available to the purposes of income. The earnings of the Western Docks, up to the close of last year, amount to 32,034/. 11s. 4d., which, with 3,079/. Bs. 5d., accrued from rents, &c., from the outlying property, makes the revenue amount to 35,1131. 19s. 9d. The Report then re commended a dividend of one and a half per cent. upon the fixed capital, 1,352,800/. (the interest on debeastures up to the sth of October last having been paid), which will leave a balance of 14,926/. 19s. 9d. to be carried to the credit of the revenue ac count for the next half year. The CHAIRMAN, after the Report was read. shortly addressed the Meeting he stated, that as the present was the first half-yearly meeting since the Docks had been opened for business, and as the books and accounts had been open to the inspection of every Proprietor, the Directors had not deemed it necessary to cause the present Report to be print ed. The Chairman then proffered further informa tion to the Meeting, should such be desirable, ob serving that the trade of the port of London was "drawing upwards," if he might use the expression; the advantages, too, of proximity to the seat of bu siness, were beginning to be appreciated. From the Report which, had been read, it appeared that eighty ships, between 300 and 800 tons register, had en tered the Docks in the past year. During the last year an increase of such tonnage had taken place of upwards of 31 per cent. The following facts, which he should take the liberty of stating, would fully prove what he had advanced regarding the gradually " drawing upwards" of the trade. In the year 1828 the number of ships which discharged their cargoes in Decks above the pool was 893; in the year 1829 the number increased to 1,160. In the year 1828, the number of ships which loaded\vholly or partially in Docks above the Pool was 482; last year they had increased to 984. During the last fourteen months, upwards of 20,000 tons of mer chandise, part of the cargoes of vessels discharging in other docks, had been lightered and deposited in the warehouies of the Company ; all which afforded conclusive evidence of the advantages which really belonged to wet docks, with warehouses of special security situated near to the seat of business. The Chairman then entered into a statement of the particular branches of trade in which the ships were engaged which:had entered the St. Katharine 's Docks with cargoes. The Chairman concluded by paying a glowing panegyric to the merits of Mr. 11:11.—( Great applause.) One great advantage was, that he resided on the premises, and was acces sible to all parties at all times.—(Hear.) The Report was unanimously received. A motion was then made, that it be printed and circulated amongst the proprietors. The question was, after some conversation, put and carried. Report to be printed. _ _ _ On the motion of Mr. SHEPHERD, a vote of Clanks was passed to the Chairman and Directors, and the Meeting dissolved.

A report was in circulation, and a very fore:ble ire,- ! pression made thereby, that the deceased . came by their deaths in ccnsequence of neglect during the ' present severe inclemency of the weather. How far the truth of the report was borne out by ant in quiry, will be seen by the subjoined account. The Governor, Mr. Chesterton, as soon as his eye caught the only reporter in the room, of to 11;s presence, and told him that the visiting Magistrates had made an order, and inserted "it in the prison book, that gentlemen of the press should be ex chided from the present inquiry, and politely re quested him to leave the room. The reporter refused to comply with the Govet - nor's request, and stated, that as a court of inquiry was then opened in the room, he must protest against being removed by any authority other than that of the Court itself. He appealed on the point to the coroner. Mr. UNiviN said, that as the-court was opened he conceived he had no power to oblige the reporter to withdraw. The question was a nice and delicate one, and he would decline to express a decisive opi nion upon it. The reporter then declared his deter mination to be present, and the Governor acquiesced. Henry Webster sworn—l am acting clerk. Tit, deceased, John Fox Power, was committed to this prison, from the Old Bailey Sessions, in July, 1629, and died in the infirmary on the 16th inst. He was 34 years of age. The deceased, Thomas Steele, was committed as a vagrant on the 25th of Novem ber, 1829, and died on the 17th, Sunday last. Henry Wakefield sworn—l act as surgeon to the prison during the illness of Mr. Webb. The dr ceased, Power, had been nearly four months in the infirmary affected with a bowel complaint. I visited him daily, and prescribed medicines and extra diet for him. His diet consisted of meet, milk, cheese, tea, porter, wine, and whatever else he had a fancy for. lie rallied for some time, but dropsical syrnp toms afterwards appeared, which carried him off. consider general debility, occasioned by disease, to be the cause of his death. John Stevens, a prisoner, sworn—l nursed the deceased from the 7th of October last, since which time he had been in the infirmary. He was daily visited by Mr. Wake Geld, surgeon. Had been al lowed extra diet, and never complained of want of care and attention. The term of his imprisonment expired the day previous to his death. The Jury immediately returned a verdict that ihe deceased died a natural death by the visitation of God. Mr. Wakefield was again sworn touching the death of Thomas Steel. He was not an hour in the infirmary before his death. He was taken there on Sunday morning by nsy orders. lie had no spe cific complaint, but appeared to be much debilitated by old age. I ordered him some hot brandy and water, but it had no effect. I was present when he died, and am of opiuion that the cause of his death was a decay of nature. Arrangements had been previously made to send him into the country to his parish. George L. Chesterton, the governor, sworn, in consequence of a particular wish of his own—The deceased had been committed to prison as a vagrant for one month. The term of his imprisonment ex pired about a fortnight or three weeks ago. He ex pressed a wish to be passed to his parish in the coun try, but he was unable to walk in consequence of his advanced age, and the visiting Magistrates made an order on Thursday last to pass hint by a waggon. The CORONER asked the governor if the deceased had been detained in prison against his will Mr. Chesterton—Certainly not. He had been kept in the vagrant ward from a motive of humane indulgence, and had the same allowance as the other prisoners. Juror—What does the allowance consist of ? Mr. Chesterton—A pint of gnarl and 20 ounces of bread a-day, and a pint of soup and six ounces of meat tacit alternate day, or three times a week. The CORONER observed that the Jury might come to a conclusion upon the evidence of the sur geon respecting the cause of the deceased's death, and return a verdict that he, too, died by the visita tion of God. The Jury objected to do £O, and thought that it would be necessary first to visit the vagrant ward where the deceased lay previous to his death. CORONER—I think you may give your verdict first, and leave the vagtrut ward to be made a ques tion of subscqueatly. The Jury still objected, and insisted upon seeing the ward, when the Governor immediately con ducted them to it. It is a wooden shed erected on one side of the prison-yard, and separate from the test of the building. It is, perhaps, a hundred feet in length and twenty in breadth, the beds being; constructed as in a barrack-room. There are seve ral windows in it, but every one of them is more or less broken, which at this season of the year ad mits a strong current of chilling air. The place is exceedingly cold, althoughthere is a stove in or about the centre, which is supplied with coals during the day, but at night none are allowed. After the Jury returned to the inquest-room, one of them, Mr. Whitehall, observed, that he was sure none of the gentlemen present who had a good horse would stable him in such a place for one day and, night, or even make a dog-kennel of it. The Governor remarked that he could not help it. The visiting Magistates were aware of the in convenience of the place, and had given orders for the erection of a new building in another spot for the reception of vagrants, which building was at this moment in progress. He had himself never heard any complaint of the shed, except it were of its over-heat, and if he had he would have been the first to remedy it. Mr. Whitehall said, that as soon as he entered the shed he asked one of the inmates—" Are you not cold ?" " Exceedingly cold, Sir," was the reply ; but at this moment the Governor, having made his appearance, another of the vagrants exclaimed aloud, " Oh ! Sir, we are very comfortable." Mr. Wakefield said, that no doubt the weather had an effect on the old man's constitution. He likewise observed, that having viewed the shed, he was under the impression that it was an improper place for the reception and accommodation of human beings. CORONER-4 think, gentlemen,, it would be well to leave these observations for the consideration of the Visiting Magistrates, which no doubt will be eonveyed to them by the governor. The Governor declared his readiness to do so., Mr. Whitehall—But such considerations must influence our verdict. CORONER—I am of opinion that your verdict might be founded upon the evidence of Mr. Wake field. Mr. Whitehall—l believe it is the opinion of the Jury that the deceased's death was accelerated by the coldness of the place in which he abided. CORONER—I don't think the evidence will Nrar rant that verdict. Mr. Whitehall—But, sir, if the Jury agree to it, you cannot refuse to record it. CORONER—Certainly not. The Jury instantly agreed to return a verdict, " That the-deceased died of general debility, acce lerated by being put into too cold a place;" which was accordingly recorded. THE LATE LUNACY CASE.—WC understand that Mr. DAVIES has determined to print Mr. Baonaliait's speech in his case, from the short-hand writer's roues, to gether with the uniliblished repot is of the physicians, Drs.
