5 YISTERDAY at half past twelve o'cleelt, the body of Colonel Mots-roomeny was removed from Chalk. Farm to Mr. BYNG'S, his brother-in-law's, in St. James's-square. The body was opened for the purpose of ascertaining whether a pistol-ball was the cause of his death, as the Coroner deetned this Necessary to, be done previous to the Inquest being taken on the body . At seven o'clock the Inquest Was taken at the Long-room in Camden -town, as follows Mr, fleaviar deposed, that about five o'clock on Wednesday afternoon, Capt. Macnarnara's Nephew Called upon him, and stated, that his uncle was un fortunately engaged-to fight a duel, and wished him to attend him to the spot where it was expected to take place. On his attending Mr. James Macna mara to his Uncle, he found Captain Barry along with him, when they got .into a hackney.coach, and proceeded to the ground near Primrose-hill, When they arrived, they found Sir William Keir on the ground, but Colonel Montgomery did not ap pear for some time afterwards : when he arrived, the distance of twelve paces was fixed. The Gentlemen took their stands, and fired nearly together. Colonel Montgomery fell ; and not having provided any sur ,gieal assistance, the Witness offered his service, but on going up to him the Colonel exclaimed, " I am shot through the heart," and immediately expired. The ball appeared to have'entered between the fourth and fifth rib. Just at this period, Capt. Barry called to the witness to tell hint that Capt. Macnamara was Wounded. Mr. H. therefore:went to his' assistance, and found that the ball bad entered just above the right hip, and had traversed the belly. Both the deceased and Capt. M. were taken to Chalk Farm . ; and shortly after, Capt. Barry, Capt. M. and himself; returned to town in tliq hackney coach. The wit. tress then continued to state what he discovered on opening the body of the deceased, which he had been required to do. The ball, he said, had passed through the lobe of the lungs, and had torn the large vessels in its passage. There was a portion of the ribs on Cle right side driven into the lungs, and from three quarts to a gallon of blood effused into the chest. On examining the inside of the ribs, on the left side of the chest, he found many of them broken, which made him conclude that the ball had passed through the chest.' He took Out the ball from under the left &shoulder blade, whech must have made its way there between the sixth and seventh ribs. Lord Burghers!, said, on coming out of St. ;fatties's-park, next to Hyde-park, on Wednesday afternoon, he saw a number of horsemen, ?MI Col. Montgomery among them ; he rode up to him ; at that time he was about twenty yards from the railing next to Hyde-park G:lte. On one side of C olonel 'MOntgomery was a Gentleman on horse back, whom he believed was Captain Macnamara. The first words he heard were uttered by Colonel M. who. said, gg Welt Sir, and I will repeat What I haVe said, if your • dog attacks nice, I will knock him down." To thii Captain Mac namara replied, " Well, Sir, but I conceive the language you hold is arrogant, and not to be par doned." Colonel M. said, " This is not a' proper place to argue the matter; if you feel yourself in jured, and wish for .satiifaction, you know where to find-mt." •:Capt. M. replied, • " • Not for whit has happened; but if you were to inult me, I would take notieeof it as soon as any man."—Colooel " No, Sir, I wish to seek no 'cp:arc!, but I adhere to what I originally said, c , If your dog kvas to attack mine, I would knock him down." Capt. M. again repeated, " it was arrogant lan guage, and that he would as soon meet Col: M. as any Other man." Col. M. again observed, " he desired no quarrel with him." Capt, M. then rode on, but shortly turned round, and repeated 4 A thttt he would as 'soon fight as any mart," at the same time shaking a stick. at Colonel Mont - - gomery which he held in his hand. Col. M. and his friends then rode out of the Park along.Picca- . dilly,• and were about fifty yards behind Captain M. and two Gentlemen in company with him. 11. 91! the conversation that took place the. Wit n4f‘• eesosidered the dispute entirely settled ; and ' under .that conviction Mr. W. Sloane quitted the P a r.tY. The decea s ed, w i t h M r . S. S loane , an d n W ness, rode down Sr. James's.street, and turned intojerrny n . btreet . C apt . M . pursue d h i s way along Piccadilly. About the middle of jenny n-street, the party heard 41 noise of horses coming along the street. One of the Gentlemen on horseback he did not kno w ; the other was Mr. W. Sloane; they were opt quitelogether ; the stranger was one of those whom be had seen ridi ng a l ong w i t h Captain Macnamara. When he came up to Col. :Vlontgomery, he told him be wished to speak with him. Colonel Montgomery replied certainly. - The Gentleman pointed to the Colonel to go forward, which he did. Col. M. then beckoned to Mr:W. Sloane, who had gone' on, to come.. to hint ; when he came op, Capt. B. and Col. M. were pointing to their - watches ; after which the stranger left them, and returned to Captain M. who was at a short distance. Witness then rode up to Colonel Montgomery, and said, is any thing going to happen ? replied, no, nothing but an explana tion, which is to take place at my lodgings. Wit ness then went to an Hotel in jermyn-street, and flaw Colonel M. title past : he nodded eo him this was about lo minutes past five o'clock. Mr. Stephen Sloane;.--I was with my brOther, in liYde-park. Colonel.M. came up to my brother, w hom 'he knew. W e we re r et i r i ng towar d s Pi cc:i . "'lll' from the bridge in the Park. The dogs.vvere Alen behind. Col. M. look.td round, andupon see , log his dos, which was quite a young New - 1001E 1 nd one, en gaged fighting with another of the same kind, but large r and stronger, he got o ff •his horse :,3n order to part them ; Colonel M. observing at the same time, that hc,would knock the other dog . down if h e ew upon his dog. Capt. Macnamara 11.1 " rode up, and said, if M. knocked_his dog tiro he must knock hit s u clOwn ales. .I haVo .for- Pifer) what was exaftly Col. MOntgomery'S answer, but I think it Was, that .the Park was:too public for . the adjustinent of a dispute. jic then gave Capj., At his name, not his card. Capt. Macnaniara then, jis a violent passion told his name, 116(i:that he was 141 the Royal N avy . C apt. M . o b serve d • i t was ::ttrrettplt tiniesite him to call off his dog.: cot. M. observed, 'Capt. Macnamara could not suppose he i nteniild any insult to him; vitber by whist lit kid fluid o deltic; aM lit ofhcluded uy.ssying, that it Captain Maenamaret dog did again commit any violence, he would do what was in his power to defend his own dog. They then passed on together towards Piccadilly, through the gate, and separated after a few paces ; Capt. M. and his two friends rode along Piccadilly towards St. James's_street ; and the deceased in company with my -brother, Lord Burghersh and myself, went the same way. When we got to St. James's street, my brother parted from usa and we turned along Jermyn-street nearly as far as St. James's church. My brother came up to Col. M. and. was immediately followed by another person, who desired to speak to Col. M. It was one of Capt. Macnamara's party. The de ceased beckoned me to come back, and also my brother. The deceased, the Gentleman, and my brother went on a few paces together. Col. M. and the Gentleman took out their watches, and then Capt, M.'s friend turned about and rode off towards St. James's_street. I asked Col. M. the rea son of the person coming up ? he told me, it was in order to appoint a meeting for the explanation of the quarrel. Col. M. then rode off towards Sr. - James's. square, and then returned, and galloped up Jermyn. street. It was about 20 minutes past five. Col. Montgomery's condua throughout was cool and un. ruffled by any passion, except at the moment when the dog was attacked. Mr. William Sloan...—When Colonel Montgo mery's dog was attacked, Col. M. jumped off his horse to rescue him. Colonel M. called out to Captain Macnamara to take off his dog. Capt. M,' replica, a Have you. the arrogance to say that I am to take away my dog ?"- heard the expres sion of arrogance .made use of several times by Captain NI. Lord Burghersh joined us at this time. Colonel Montgomery expressed a disin clination to quarrel, but said, " If Captain Mac namara felt himself hurt, he knew where to find him." Both parties proceeded towards Piccadilly, Capt. M. and his two friends being a little before. I conceived the matter was ended. (The Witness then deposed to the same effea as his brother, up to the time they reached St. James's church.) A Gentleman came up, and desired him to name his time and place. Col. M. said, " Matters of this consequence were better settled as soon as possible." He then appointed in two hours time ; and added, that he thought a pistol should be the weapon employed, as it was most used in thii country. The• deceased wished me to go 'with liinito Lord Paget's, but his Lordship was out of town. He then hinted that I might be his Second ; but I wish ed him to consult those who had had more experi. ence than myself.—He then said he would go to Mr. Upton's, and desired me to go to Sir William Keir, . which I did, and told him all that had happened. Sir William was quite shocked at what had happened. Colonel M. came in half an hour after, and asked Sir *William to be his Second, which he consented, to. Colonel NI. asked him if he had got any pistols ; he said he had a brace, but they were out of order. I suppose they were the pistols made use of. Col. Montgomery asked me for the loan of my horse for Si r Will iam to ride to the deceased's house. Sir William inquired Whe. ther the deceased or I knew where Captain Macna. (ti ara was to he found. He said it would be new. sary to see Capt..M. or his friend before any thing so serious as a meeting took place. They then rode away, and I - saw no more Of thorns Mr. laves Macaamar.z.—l do not know tile de r c e a sed. I was riding on horseback on Wednesday afternoon, about four o'clock, in company with Capt. Barry and Capt. Macnamara. Capt. M. and Col. Montgomery had each a Newfoundland dog follow. i t. sg him, which on me et i ng eac h o ther b egan fi g h t . i t Es o Colonel Ni. got off his horse in a great pas. stop, and swore he would knock Capt. Macnamara's dog down. Capt, M. called to him and said, " You will please to recollea it is my dog." Col. M. said, I do nor care if it is your dogs I will knock him down." He repeated this several times. Capt. M. then said, " You shall knock me down first." Col.. NI. replied, " that shall be as it may happen," at the same time observing, " why don't you get off your horse and take away your dog ?" Capt. M. said he was not accustomed to be spoken to in that way, to which Col. M. replied,- that if lie had of. fended him he knew where to call upon .him (the deceased had previously given his address). Capt. Macnamara said, " 1 shall do that without asking for your permission." Captain M. Captain Barry an d myself rode out at the gate along Piccadilly, and Col. Montgomery and his friends followed us at 'the distance of' about ;fifty yards. Col. M. tamed down .St. James's-street, and we went on. Caproßarry, at the instance of Capt. Macnamara, weto after Col. M. to request a meeting on ac count of the words he had spoken, and to give him the choice of the time, place, and weapons. Ater Captain Barry had overtaken Colonel M. in Jermyn-street, I saw them pull out their watches. The Colonel then beckoned to a person behind to come up to him, and Capt. Barry returned to Capt. Macnamara. While we observed this, we were near St. James's -street. Captain Barry on his return in. formed Captain Macnamara that Colonel M. had appointed a meeting in two houri,. and that he had chosen pistols. We then parted. I went-to Mr. Heaviside, to desire him to attend Capt. Macnamara. On My return, I met Capt. M. in . Piccadilly, and Capt. Barry arrived soon after in a coach, , and brought a case of pistols with him. Then Mr. Heaviside, Capt. Barry, and Capt. Macnamatas were driven away to Primrose-hill. I followed them on horseback. When I arrived, Col. Mont. -..gomery was not come ; but Sir William Keir was waiting for hitn. It was near half an hour be fine he came in a haektuty-ebach with pistols.-- Captain Macnamara sent Calitain Barry to know if he would make an apology. I heard Captain B. inform Captain NC that he refused. .The ground was then measured at twelve long paces. Each took a pistol. Colonel M. levelled his•first when both were presented, Colonel Ms lowered his, arid took another level. They then both fired, and Col. M. fell. Mr. Heaviside went up to him, and put something on his wound. Capt. M. called to Capt. B. and said lie was wounded.: he was sup ported! into Chalk harm. The deceased was like wise carried thither. Capt. M. said to Mr. Heavi. side, '' Is there any danger ?" Mr. IL replied " No." Copt, " I do flat sneak for myself, mear tor ctiMO;itgoniry, Otha, 1. tear, is dread.fully wounded!" ,The Seconds ,then toolt. their horses and rode off together. (in answer to Onestion put by the Coroner), the witness added, Capt. Macnamata was as much agitatedit Primrbie hill, as when the quarrel first took plam A Fi son who called himself Pat, an Irish groom, deposed to the fighting of the dogs in the Park, and the dispute in consequence. He was also at 'Prim rose-hill. Being asked who fired first, he said " there was not the twinkling of an.eye difference ; but if any, Col. Montgomery had-it." Co/old Gillespie was called to prove that there was no previous animosity between the parties, as they were .strangers to each other before this fatal catastrophe. The Coroner in his address to the Jury, stated the law to be, that where two persons met to fight without having had sufficient time to cool upon their quArrel, in the event of the death of one, the crime of murder could not be charged against the other. Tile present case certainly was of this description; the quarrel having begun at five o'clock, and the duel taken place two hours after. He then expressed his opinion that the observation of the deceased, " that Capt-. Macnamara knew where he was to he found," could have no other meaning than a challenge ; and he thought this circumstance' was favourable to Captain Macnamara. The Jury retired a short time, and at one o'clock this morning teturned a verdict of Manslaughter. The ball was not extracted from Capt. Macna mara until yesterday afternoon : it was dor.e by Mr. Heaviside. Capt. Macnamara's commitment was made out yesterday ; hut having undergone.the operation of extrafling the b.lll, it was not judged expedient to remove him tilt it appeared that it might be dune with safety : at present he is not supposed to be in danger. • - It is to he hoped that the melancholy fate of Co_ MONTGOKItItY, which has excited concern in the Public at large, as well as in all who knew him, will lead to some decisive measure respeding Du a L. Lugo,. Perhaps 'it will be impossible entirely to prevent the practice, but it may certainly be ren dered less frequent. If death should be thought too severe a punishment for the survivor, who, in some cases, is to be pitied, as he might be forced, by the brutality of his antagonist, into an adion that he could not avoid, without incurring the odi um of cowardice ; it might however be proper to adopt a regulation lately suggested in America, by which all persons who had b.!en concerned in a Duel should be rendered ineligible to any Office in the State. The late unfortunate Colonel MQNTGOMEILY was distinguished for the most active spirit in his character as a soldier, which he nobly displayed in the service of his country. In private life he was one of the must unoffending men, and the least likely to be involved in such a melancholy event as has put a period to his days, in the prime of manhood. Even the very condutt which brought him into that melancholy event, was dietated by kindness and compassion towards a poor dumb ani mal, who was attacked by one of superior strength and ferocity. On Monday last died at his Parsonage Ilbuse,-the Rev. SAmo EL. Bann LL, A. M. ReAor of Clayton, near Brighton, and formerly Fellow of Brazen-Nose College, Oxford. This Gentleman was an excellent Scholar, a judicious Critic in Literature and the Arts, and a most respeiftable Member of the Church. He was an affable, cheerful, and intelligent Corn. pinion, and had every quality that could endear him to his friends, by a numerous. circle of whom he will long be regretted. He was in the prime of life, and like his name-sake, mentioned by Port, might be charatierized as the f‘ blameless Ile. the anive virtues of his na. T TU n re rL d t id ;l n ' o i t f e i n n t d it e ! ed ihim to a more emphatic epithet of esteem. The late Sir WILLIAM HAMILTON, though by no means wanting in political knowledge and diplo. matic address, was principally distinguished by his taste in the Fine Arty, and his knowledge of Anti quities. It was chiefly owing to his zeal, assiduity, and encouragement, that ,a prodigious number and variety of the remains of ancient art were discover. ed ; and the accounts'Which he published of those interesting and valuable - remains, have in a great measure diffused a taste for .'Virtu, and a knowledge of antiquity, tint only throughout this country but all Europe. To Sir WILLI/sit, indeed, are we in a great degree indebted for those classical ornaments which appear in the interior of our higher mansions, and in the style of our furniture, as well as in the general improvement of design in all that relates to the Arts. The Colleetion which he presented ma►nv years ago to the British Museum, 'considerably en . riched that national Repository of what is learned and rare ; and his own Collection, part of whivh was sold by Mr. Cultism, have all tended to the improvement . of the general taste. Sir WILLIAM was highly respeaed for the attention and courtesy with which he always received his own countrymen who visited Naples; and if he had no opportunity of displaying .any extraordinary depth of political wisdom, as the British Representative at a foreign Court, he at least held forth a respettable example of British hospitality, plain sense, unaffeCted learn. ing, and gentlemanly condutt. A plan, it is said, was lately sen,t to Petersbutth from which the Author imagines the most advan. tageous consequences would ensue. The heads are these Thu Russian langdage is absolutely not capable of any perfection or refinement, and conseqUently the Nation cannot be polished. Ano cher language must therefore he given to the Rue sians;—the Author proposes the ancient Greek, and wishes that 4000 Greek Schools might be esta blished in Russia, that in three years every bo:ly might be able to speak this language and have for. gotten their own. Then he could propose some_ thing else to promote the civilization of the Rus sians ; but without the universal introduction of the Greek, it would be impossible for him." A new Periodical Wutk has been estriblished at Turin entitled lliothept Itailer:7:e, on tie plan of that published at Geneva, under the title of .11362.qic pe .5" a '.. , . .; WE have received'r,ome important conirnonicz.. tiotis from !tort Jackson, consisting of Observatii,,, , , made in the Not th and South Pacific by Mr. 51:41.'“ son, Commaoder of the Naiitilas. This Ct-ncle- Man haS discovered in S. lat. i r deg. i 7 in;rl and'E. long. 467 deg. 58 min. an island which he has called Kennedy's Island. From its beaotift;l appearance, united to its being well inhabi:ed„ Mr. S. is of opiniOn that it may prove a vrluable acquisition to our new Colony, particularly as it pt:oduces hogs in abUndance. g Tile natives (he says) are savage, artfiif, and treacherous , upon Dexter's Group, or pairs Group ; which obliged me to fire upon them; and this may be it necessary precaution to any person, who may wish to land upon them hereafter. " Upon the Island Disappointmtot I landed some fowls ; sowed several sorts of seed, and put some plants to the ground. In two previous voy. ages I passed this Island, without the preCaution of lookin4 for land, as I am sure many othecNavi.. gators have done: We found upon it the remains of a very large lower mast, next the keel; which led us to think some large Spanish ship had" been wrecked upon it : but it must have been long since as the timber was greatly:decayed. " Though these islands are thinly inhabited, We, scarcely saw one in the whole of this group but had natives upon it ; and when our distance stink the Reefs below the horizon which extend from island to island; the natives, as they crossed from one 'to the other, presented the ,appearance of a regiment of soldierS marching round the horizon on the surface of the sea. 4 4 V1 the islands are , ceedingly low, in s i shety at first; iike tli aid rest in this labyrinth, a few scatirt.re:i, trees aboVe the horizon.
