On Wednesday orders were received here to suspend the embarkation of the 49th, and on Thursday orders arrived to send three companies to Clomnel ; two of the companies march this day. ; the other marches to-morrow, Sunday, There seems a considerable movement of the military, west ward. We understand that the 42d has marched from Kil kenny in that direction.—( Waterford Mirror, Oct. 20.) CA It r. ow, 18.—Yesterday a part of the 22d - regiment passed through thi s WWII on its way to Kilkenny. One com pany is to remain in this town to do duty in place of the detach ment of the 49th, which marched yesterday morning for Wa terford. The Limerick disturbances are deemed (if s.ufficient copse, quence to require the attendance of Sir David Baird, Corn• mender-in-Chief in Ireland. • Government has directed barracks to be engaged at Shana golden, Ballingarry, Rathkeale, Drumcolloher, and Askeaton, all in the county of Limerick. ME 42n HIGHLANDERS.—The total number of men that belonged to the 42d, or Highland 'regiment, from the year 1797 to 1818, was 13,127. In 1817, there were only three men liv ing in the corps that fought against Bonaparte in Egypt ! SIR R. WILSON. The friends of Sir ROBERT W.l Lsox are very industrious in their publications, but they have omitted the following rather important document, relative to that Officer's conduct on a memorable occasion GENERAL ORDERS. Horse-Guards, May 10, 1816. So long as Major-General Sir Robert Wilson, and Capt. John Hely Hutchinson, of the Ist or Grenadier Regiment of Foot Guards, were under trial, the Commander-in. Chief abstained from making any observation on their conduct. The proceedings having now terminated, the Commander in Chief has received the Prince Regent's commands to declare his Royal Highness's sentiments on the transactions which have led to the trial and conviction of those Officers. In the instance of Major General Sir Robert Wilson, the Prince Regent thinks it necessary to express his high displea sure, that an Officer of his standing in his Majesty's service, holding the commission, and receiving the pay of a Major Ge neral, should have been so unmindful of what was due to his profession, as well as t o th e G overnment un d er w h ose protection he had voluntarily placed himself, as to have engaged in a measure, the declared object of which was to counteract the laws and .defeat the public Justice of that country. Nor does his Royal Highness consider the means by which this measure was accomplished, as less reprehensible than the act itself. For his Royal Highness cannot admit, that any circumstance could justify a British Officer in having obtained, under false pre tences, passports in feigned names, from the representative of his own Sovereign, and in having made use of such passports for himself, and a subject of his Most Christian Majesty, under sentence of high treason, disguised in a British uniform; not only to - elude the vigilance of the French Government, but to carry him in such disguise through the British lines. 'While the Prince Regent cannot but consider it as a material aggravation of Sir Robert Wilson's offence, that holding so high a rank in the army, he should have countenanced and en couraged an inferior officer to commit a decided and serious breach of military duty, his Royal Highness nevertheless thinks it equally necessary to express his high displeasure at the conduct of Captain John Hely Hutchinson, for having been himself an active instrument in a transaction of so culpable a nature, more especially in.a country in amity with his .!ajesty, where the re giment, with which he was serving in the course of his military duty, formed part of an army which had been placed by the Allied Sovereigns under the command of the Duke of Wel lington, under circumstances which made it peculiarly incum bent upon every officer of that army to abStain from any con duct which might ob s t r u c t th e execution of the laws. His Royal Highness the Prince Regent, being unwilling to visit these officers with the full weight of his displeasure, which the complexion of their offence might have warranted`; and also taking into consideration the degree of punish ment to which they have subjected themselves by violating the laws of the country in which this transaction took place, has Signified to the Commander-in-Chief these his sentiments, that they should be published to the army at large, in order to re cord, in the most public manner, the strong sense wliich his Royal Highness entertains of the flagrant misconduct of these officers, and of the danger which wou ld accrue to the reputation and discipline of the British army if such an offence were to pass without a decided expression of his Royal Highness's Most severe reprehension. His Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief directs that this Order shall be entered in the Order Book, and read at the head of every regiment in his Majesty's service. By command of his Royal Highness The Commander-in -Chief, ' • iItRY CALVERT, Adj.-Gen. to the - THE LEVANT.—A Correspondent observes, that Mons. TOURNEFORT'S Voyage into the Levant, published in two volumes quarto, in 1718, may now be read with great satisfaction, as it contains a most accurate • account of the ancient and modern state of the Islands of the Archipe lago ; as also of Constantinople, the Coasts of the Black Sea, Armenia, Georgia, the frontiers of Persia and Asia Minor. This edition is like wise illustrated with plans of the principal cities and towns, and views of the several Islands and Harbours, and it is likewise enriched with numer ous plates of rare plants, animals, &c.—and forms altogether one of the best and most accu rate accounts of the habits, manners, customs, &c. of the inhabitants of the several countries mentioned in it. The late President Wv.s.r being subject to the gout, it attack e d hi s r i g ht hand while he was painting his great picture of Death on the Pale Horse; but this did not check his ardour, for he proceeded with his left hand, and the whole was finished by himself without any assistance. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF SUICIDE.—A case of suicide, committed under very singular cir cumstances, occurred at Glasgow on Tuesday last (the 16th inst.) An elderly man, whose name we forbear mentioning, who had occupied a respectable situation in Kirkintilloch for nearly forty years, left his home that morning, and, ac companied by a neighbour, came into the city. On the way the unhappy man informed his com rade that he designed committin g s e lf- mur d er , for which purpose he had provided himself with a pistol. The cause he assigned for meditat ing this act we have not heard with sufficient accuracy to justify our stating it. His compa nion, instead of being alarmed, or of dissuading him from his purpose, coolly remarked that what " he meant to do, he must do quietly !" and in furtherance of this humane advice, when they arrived in town, he accompanied his friend to a public-house in the Gorbals, and after order ing a bottle of ale, the fellow went out to the door, in order to guard his insane compa nion against interruption, while 'committing the dreadful act which was to precipitate him in a moment into the presence of his offended Maker ! Immediately thereafter the report of a pistol was heard, and the landlord, hastening into the room, found the unfortunate man ex tended on the floor; his hand had been lifted with too steady an aim to his head, and he had literally blown off the upper part of his skull. The brute to whom it may be said he osi-ed his dismal end, was taken into custody, carried before the Fiscal, and examined ; but the law contemplating no such case, he was obliged to be discharged, and left to the " compunctious visitings" of his own conscience, which, judging from the present obtusity of his faculties, are likely to be both " few and far be tween." We believe the unfortunate suicide was a man of good education, and some literary at tainments.—(Greenock Advertiser.)

They have al ready begun their accustomed annual donations to the surround ing poor of the different parishes in the environs of their estate. This day the Duke of Wellington was expected to arrive at Apsley House, from Apthorpe, the seat of the Earl of West moreland, in Northamptonshire, where his Grace has been on a visit. The Duke and Duchess of Montrose, the Marquis of Graham, and Lady Caroline Graham, will leave their seat, Buchanan House, in Stirlingshire, on the first of the ensuing month, for London.

In the evening he dined with Lord Holland, at Holland House, Kensington; and to-day he leaves town on a visit to the Earl of Essex, at Cashiobury Park. The Duke of Bedford arrived at his house in St. James's square late on Sunday evening, from Woburn Abbey. His Grace leaves town for `Worthin g to-dap, on a visit to th e j un i or branches of his family ; an d he intends returning to Woburn, we believe, on Monday next. Sir Felix Agar, Ban. is now entertaining Sir George Denys and a party of DON vivAxTs, at his hospitable seat, Caven ham Hall, in Suffolk. Lieut.-Oeneral Dowdeswell gave a sumptuous entertainment at his hospitable mansion of Pull Court, in Gloucestershire, to a numerous party, including the Corporation of the Borough of Tewkesbury. Mr. Thomas Thistletwaite has left town to join the Hunt in Hampshire, where there is now established a crack pack. Lord Kelleen, the eldest son of the Earl of Fingal, sports the most elegant equip a g e in the north of I re l an d. Lord Cochrane, it is said, has lodged Thirty-five Th ousan d Pounds in the French Funds. The variable climate of this country will,. it is said, no longer permit the Countess Spen cer t o so j ourn i n it . Her Ladyship's delicate health renders a milder air advisable. The Noble Earl and his Lady, therefore, intend to proceed to Italy in a few days. At Stoke Edith Park, in Herefordshire, the beautiful and hospitable mansion of F. Foley, Esq. are assembled a large party of Fashionables t consisting of the amiable Duchess of St. Alban's, Lord Burford and his sister, the lovely Lady Caro line Beauderk, - Alrs. and the Misses Lock, the host's charming sister, Lady Lambert, and Sir Henry, &c. THE THEKTRE.,--T4lO Rayfilarket Theatre was crowded last night to the representation of The Beggar's Opera, and the announced appearance of a Lady in the character' of Macheath no doubt operated strongly niipubliepriosity. The new Candidate for public layout's, vie understand, a Miss BLAKE, who has performed with success in the Bristol Theatre,, but who is almost. a novice in theatrical life. Her, person is of the middle size, and her face, though not handsome, is not unpleasing. 'Her voice is powerful, and she sings with evident taste, not indulging too much in the flourishing style of the day. She, however, sometimes decorates her airs just sufficiently to shew that she is restrained by judgment, not in ability. Almost the whole of her songs were en. cored,and she was warmly applauded throughout her performance. Her action was unaffected, and seemed to be the result of feeling and good sense. Her delivery of the dialogue was correct and emphatic. The impression she made upon the audience was so very favourable that the an nounced repetition of the Opera was received with universal applause. Miss R. CORRI sung admirably in Polly and acted with great feeling. TERRY in Peachum, and WILLIAMS in Locket, particularly distinguished themselves in the quarrelling scene, and Filch was well sustained by Mr. J. RUSSELL. Mrs. JONES, a very active and useful actress, was the Lucy, and in acting and singing she was justly received with warm ap plause. Previous to the Opera the very divert ing and interesting Comedy of Match-breaking was represented, and Mr. BAKER performed the part of Edgar, assigned to him on account of DECAMP'S departure on a provincial engagement, in a very respectable manner. The new Macheath, who has made so success ful a debut at the new Haymarket Theatre, is a pupil of Mr. NATHAN, who, in co-operation with Mr. 13RAnAm, gave appropriate force and sweet ness to Lord BYRON'S Hebrew Melodies. Mr. BRAHAM concluded his engagement at the Birmingham Theatre on Monday last, by , per forming Hawthorn, in the Opera of Love in a MRS. MOUNTAIN.—We are sure that the pub. lic will join with us in regretting to hear that this Lady, who has long been a distinguished ornament of the musical world, met with a me lancholy accident on Friday last, from the over turning of one of the Hammersmith stages, by which her right arm was broken, her wrist -dis located, and her head suffered some severe con tusions. Her arm was immedhttely set by Mr. BOWLING, of Hammersmith, and we have the pleasure to learn that she is remarkably well, considering the injuries which she received. SINGULAR DEATH.—On Thursday afternoon last about five o'clock, Henry Jansen, Esq. a Delegate of the Convention, from the county of Ulster, when apparently in the- most perfect health, fell down in the Capitol, at Albany (New York), and instantly expired. lle had the moment before purchased a ticket for admission to Peale's celebrated picture of the COURT or• DEATH, now exhibiting in the :Senate Chamber, and while he was crossing the threshold of the door leading to the picture, he was instantly summoned from the representation to the awful reality !—(A.uierican Paper.)

Mr. It— started at a quar tet past six, ran down the broadway along ‘Vater-lane, and over Blackfriars Bridge, where he crossed to the right sip, of the Surrey-road, and reached the Obelisk at twenty-one minutes anti a half past six, winning his wager by three minutes and a half—ten to one on time. AN ELEGANT COMPLIMENT.—The Rev. Dr. BALGUY, a preacher of great celebrity, after having delivered an excellent Sermon in Win chester Cathedral, the text of which was, " All wisdom is sorrow," received the following extem pore, but elegant compliment from Dr. WATSON, then at Winchester College : If what you advance, dear Doctor, be true, That Wisdom is SORROW, h OW WR ETCIIED are You. TROPE FOR TROPE.--A clerg4man preaching in the neighbourhood of Wapping, observing that most part of his audience were in the sea-faring way, very naturally embellished his discourse with several nautical tropes and figures. Amongst other things, he advised 'them to be ever on the watch, so that, on whatsoever tack the Evil One should bear dozon upon them, he might be crippled in action. " Ave, master," muttered a jolly son of Neptune ; ‘ but let me tell you, that will de. pend upon your having the weather-gage of him" —a just, though whimsical remark. The remains of Lady CHARLOTTE HILL (sister of the Marquess of DOWNSHIRE,) who died at Frankfort-on-the-Maine, was this day removed from H anover-square for interment, at the church of East Hampstead, Berks.

Early in the afternoon a Po lice-officer went to take a young man who was charged with robbing his mother. As the young man was resolute in his resistance, a strong posse came down, which he also beat. A file of soldiers at last reinforced the assailants, but in vain. The Police-officers were much cut and beaten,, and the offender also ; he finally escaped them all by his agility in leg bail. f. 4 —, -..',•,. ...11l '..— ..., . •,si „ ' , Ad 4's .

TRAINING CHILDREN TO BE THIEVES, ' Jemima Matthews, WhO stood charged with having seduced children to her lodging tti thieve for her support, underwent a re-ciamination, at ‘Vorship-Street Office, before M. SWABEY, j~tn. Anil Jolts* 2PIsLWAHD, Esqrs. The three boys who I:ad been employed by her to commit felonies were brought up from the New prison; Clerkenwell, where they had been detained in custody; Air the purpose of being witnesses againSt her. They were then sworn and examined. Bailey stated, that he had been off and on staying with the priioner for the last - twelve months. He and the others were sent 'every day under pretence of selling matches and pins, but the prisoner told him to thieve. He remembered stealing a piece of mtitton in Spitalfields-market, which he took home, and told the - prisoner he stole it. The prisoner told him to take care of himself, and not get in a hobble. The prisoner had a pack of cards, by which she told fortunes to people ; and she could tell the children whether they would GET NIPPERED when they went out in the morning. Frederick Clarke was with Prisoner three flights, and was sent out by her every day to rob. In that time he robbed three shops in Whitechapel. He remembered one, a butcher's shop on the right hand going into Whitecharid, where he:stole a heart, liver, and lights, last Wednesday, and took them home, for which the Prisoner gave him two weeks' lodging. • John Clarke, a little boy, brother to the last witness, said that he was sent out a thieving. The prisoner had two boys of her own, Ben and John. Ben went out and thieved every day, but she used to beat John with her fist, and sometimes with a stick, because he would not go a thieving. John Tyrrell, another little boy whose father had delivered him from the clutches of this monstrous woman, corroborated the story of the other boys. The prisoner in her defence denied the charge. She said she was an unfortunate Woman, and she took the children is out of charity. She was committed to take her trial for the misdemeanour in receiving stolen goods; and the boys iwere committed to Cold Bath Fields, to be produced as witnesses against her. At Nine o'Clock on Tuesday Morn'nz t? e Wheel goes round, and within a few minutes after Somebody will find himself possessed of an independent Fortune of Thirty Thousand Pounds, real Money, not Stock. When there were three ,E 30,000 Money Prizes in a former Lottery BISH sold them all !!! There are Three of that denomination in the present Lottery. What are the odds Bisn does not also yell the whole 'of those Three ? The Chances certainly are greatly against 'such an. event, but many persons, in spite ;of all the odds, have hacked 81,411's luck, as he is remarkable for selling thirty Thousand Potan4 Prizes; hair_inrr B sold mor e th an h a lf o f a fiTh at h ave ever been. A few days will determine; as the Drawing be gins next Tuesday, and the very first Prize drami that Day isiure'lO ile one of those- Three Thirty Thousands. Yesterday, about three o'clock, an alarming fire broke out at the house of Mr. PAN'S, North street, Lambeth, which threatened great destruc tion ; but from the timely arrival of the en gines the effect of the devouring element was confined to this house, which was entirely consumed. Mr. 1 3 .tePs, we understand, is the proprietor of one of the 'Woolwich coaches, and a number of horses were in the premises, the whole of which were taken away without injury. The public are cautioned against the arts of two men who are travelling , as is suppos e d, through Monmouthshir e a n d S outh Wales, selling Liverpool watches, called "runners," with chains, seals, and rings for gold, which are merely gilt. The watches are of no real value; and the better to deceive, the rings have the word " pure" stamped therein. It is said they have been living on the plunder of the unwary for these two! , t months, in this and the adjoining counties; and had made a gentleman's servant pay 30s. for a chain, seals, and rings, which might have been purchased in the shops for 3s. or 4s. Happily their ends were defeated at Monmouth ; and our readers are hereby put on their guard how they deal with such miscreants. A decently dressed young female, in a brown pelisse, was en suite in their excursion. —(Gloucester Paper.) TIIE MARKETS, &c. CORN-EXCHANGE, OCT. 24. Having no fresh arrivals since Monday, our Market continues its prices the same as on that day, without any variation, the supply being fully equal to the demand. HOP INTELLIGENCE. SOUTHWARK, OCT. 22.—Our trade is not so brisk as it was the beginning of last week. Weald of Kent and Sussex Pockets are certainly lower ; the Middle Kent Hops support their prices. MAIDSTONE, OCT. 18.—At our Fair yesterday and Market to-day we had a brisk sale for our best runs of Hops, in both Bags and Pockets, at an advance from last week ; as to the low and inferior sorts, they met with a heavy sale at about last week's prices. Owing to the Duty getting down so very much, we certainly anticipate better prices will yet be obtained for our best Middle-Dent growths, a large proportion of which are already sold : the inferior sorts we fear that there will be sorr e difficulty in getting through with. We hear of many of our best Middle-Kent growths being sold this week at from 80s. to 84s. per cwt. It is now thought the Duty will very little ex ceed that of last year. CANTERBURY, OCT. 20.—Our Hop Market this day was very dull, and but few sales were effected, the buyers not being inclined to purchase unless at reduced prices. CHESTER FAIR, OCT. 22.—Orr the first day very little bu siness was done, but on the second good samples sold freely, at better prices ; about 700 pockets were disposed of, and it was expected that the remainder would be sold. The following is the total number of Beeves, Calves, Sheep, and Lambs, slaughtered in Glasgow, from the 2d September, 1820, to Ist September, 1821 : Beeves. Calves. Sheep.
