Park, of most of the Volunteer Corps in . London. and its vicinity, before His Royall-lighness the DUKE of Yotut, and several General Officers. The. xrhole number of Volunteers amounted to about four thousand five hundred. Considering the season of the year, the necessary absence of a great num ber of Gentlemen from Town, and that some of the • Volunteer Corps have already, parsed in review, it • was extremely creditable that the number should be large. There is no doubt but that the cir cumstances of the moment induced many to attend, 'Who would otherwise have.wished to decline the fatigue of a review. About twenty minutes past ten His Royal High.., 'tress the DUKE of Yoax, accompanied by t h e FkiNc E of WALES: and attended by the Earl of' - }JARRING:ON and the Staff, came upon the ground. The general line was formed two deep at close rankS.' There . was an intervirof five paces betwixt each Corps, great and small, and each was formed at clos'e.files,'according to His Majesty's Regulations, twenty_two inches nearly being all Owed for each file.. The ranks were then opened, and - the Officers ad, vanced in front. The . several small Corps, when United,. were considered as a 13attalion, and had no interval of distinetion between them. &tell, Corps as had,,guns were allowed sufficient ground for their standing on the right of each, in .dditian so the common interval of five. paces. A signal-gun, a zz.pounder, from -Woolwich, was posted at a proper place for the advantage of the whole. -• On the firing of the first eannon, to norify,His. Royal Highness's.approach;'the Whole shouldered in l e rfea order, and the guns of the Artillery Corps " r ed a royal saluie of 2 r guns.: • . When His Royal Highness arrived at a central' Point in front of the line; a second cannon was fired, and the whole line presented'arms,' Officers saluted; the drums were beat and the music played God save the King, once over.• • • . -At . - the third cannon,' the Corps shouldered by Word of command, -supported antis, and remained - te* V. , • !;, jiti - Royal Highhqss then proceeded to the right Ift . he line, and passed along from right to left. At the fourth cannon, the whole loaded, each Corps by its own command; and each Corpi in the same mannenclosed its ranks. . , At the fifth cannon, the firing was commenced by t ne Royal Highland Association, who, occuffing angle between the right and left wing, 'formed the centre of the line. ' The vollies were continued from the -centre- to the flanks of the line, and re peated at the 'sixth and seventh signals. His Royal Highness remaining nearly on the same ground, the:Line ipassed him in open columns of - Companies or Divisions, Thefollowing was the order in which the Corps were arranged : INFIiNTRY. .ijonT W.Tr,; W A S yozmto WITH ITS RIGUT AT KEN SI“I6:2?"

The appearance of the Volunteers was truly military, and theirsmanceuvr6 were executed' with considerable precision in every respea, if we except their firing, which was irregular ; but the rea. ;,, son - must be obvious—lt requires a considerable degree of praetice -to be able to fire eicaftly when the word is given, and one individual firing before the word, generally throws the whole into corrfu -Biott. This was precisely what happened. • We are happy however to state, that the firing. was not generally bad,. The Highland Corps in the centre, and: thOe upon the right of the -line, fired with great regulirity. Soon after twelve the whole Line passed in open column of Companies or Divisions-of sixty men, and mgrchel off the grornd in quick time.--;•Thel-ligil landers retired with the bagpipes, playing /11:1gb , Lander.—They were dressed in their proper form—a tartan plaid, and fillibeg, broad'..sword and dirk. The day was uncommonly fine, and the number of speelators immense. We heard of no accident taking place. • • Great c2re was taken to avoid or corre& any stop near the Park-gates, or passages. through the rails, and no carriages were admitted into Hyde-park during the Review, except that of His Royal High, ness the DUKE Of GLOUCESTER. HERTFORD ASSIZES. - - • MONDAY, JULY 20. `Lord KENYON and Sir NASH GROSE opened the business of this County, the first on the Home Cir cuit, with the usual forms. On the Nisi Frills side there were but three Causes entered for trial, all of which went off upon reference. TO the credit of tho County, there were but very few offenders for trial on the Criminal side ; but among them there was one crime of so atrocious a nature, that it 'deserves notice. • INCENDIARY. 'William Cox was indided on the statute of the gth Geo. L commonly called the Black Mt; for feloniously, voluntarily, and maliciously setting fire to a hovel of wheat, the property of James Hil ton, of Walkern. The evidenceproduced proved, that the Prisoner had cormerly been pr ogecuted by the Prosecutor . for 'stealing straw, in consequence of which, he had been herd to-vow vengeance against him. On the night the hovel was burnt ) and just before the flames burst out, the Prisoner was seen near it. He dis couraged those who were inclined to go and extin guish the flames, saying, " 'Let it burn down." He lived within so yards of the. hovel.. In his fence he protested his innocence., The Jury, pronounced him Guilty ; but in consi deration of the extreme sufferings of his wife and children, who appeared in Court at the time, ago:: nizing every breast capable of feeling for distress, they ventured to recOMmend the Priidrier to mercy. .• Mr. Justice GROSS 'lamented: that- they crime of which the Prisoner had been .found guilty, shotild be so strongly marked with ingratitude and wickedness, as to render the humane - suggestions of the Jury, and those of his own h e art, f r ui t l ess an d abortive, as there was a duty which he awed to public justice paramount to individtal feeling, and which demanded the for_ teited life of the Prisoner ; a duty.that compelled him instantly to pronounce the dreadful _sentence the Law had armed hira with, which, if he negleaed, lit said, -he should consider himself as accessary to the crime the Prisoner had committed. His I;6rdship then addressed the Prisoner .as to nature and magnitude of his offence, and to the extreme dt4navity and viciousness which had Urged him to it ; lamented there should be found a ) hu man being so- lost, so inhuman to his fellow men, as wantonly .and -maliciously to destroy the . means of sustenance which Providenc - e had so be_ . nignly blessed Lis with for our support, especially at a time when the community were suffering under considerable, privations. from the effeas of seasons, which the country had not yet. recovered from--; that it was a crime of the blackest dye, from the punishment Df which the Prisoner could eriter tain not the smallest hopes ; therefore conjured him ; the short time he had to live and 'breathe in. this world, that he would - employ that time in fervently praying for that mercy in another world, which the enormity of his offences had prevented him from re. ceiving ip this. Goodwin Thurgood and Balarock Plate, for steal ing -three quarters of barley, - the property of John Pryor ; William Horton, for stealing a .quantity of iron,. the, property-of Thomas Pickford ; and Wil liam Wise, William Thorby, :and William Brian - 4 for stealing a truss, containing .two pieces of Irish linen, the property of Thomas Watson ? . 4trc seve rally found guilty, and ordered for .tran i sportation.

Jury found him guilty of stealing only to the value of twelve-pence. The As - sizes being. ended, the Judges quitted this place for Chelmsford, leaving Cox for execu tion.

On the sth, at eight in the morning,, the cannonade began against the . ' Six EngliSh Ships, who' were not slow in coming within musquet-shot of the French Ships, The Battle then took place warmly. The two Squa drons. appeared equally animated with the resolu.: tion2 to conquer. the` French Squadron had...some advantage from its pOsition, the English Squadron • Was double its force, and had sev,eral Ships of go guns. The English Ship the Hannibal, of 74 guns, had already succeeded in placing- itself between 'the French Squadron-sand the shore: It Was half past eleven; and the decisive moment was come. For two hours the Formidable, on board Of. which was Rear Admiral LINoiS, - had ina,de head against thiee `Eglish - Ships, One of- the 'Ships of the, English 'Squadron, - which %'vaS -rangettopposite to- one of thy,, FrenckShips, struck its, Flag at three, quarters after eleven.
