EXETER, SEPT. 25.—Yesterday, the Lord Bishop of this Diocese instituted the Rev. S. Archer, M.A. to the Vicarage of Lewannick, in the county of Cornwall, on the presentation of our Most Gracious Sovereign. In the parish register of Cudharn in Kent, is the following entry :—" 1656, John, Henry, Rhoda ' and Doro, thy Portingall, - ef the same birth, wer e a ll b a pti ze d Feb. 20th, heingsons and daughters to Mathew Portingall. and Nicholl his wife. They were all buried Feb. 24, 1656."—Tradition re ports, that sending a boy-to the Vicar to come to baptize a parcel of children, he inquired how many there were? the boy answered, " Three when I came ; but God knows how many there may be before you get there." - . • • .4,44 y,, . • did so, .when Mr. - Cox desired - him to present Messrs. Green wood and Co.'s complhnentato me, and that they regretted they could go, no further. On being cross-examined, the Messman acknowledged that I had paid him, but with a legal precision of opinion, equal to that of the Quarter-master, had not done it in time, according to the order of the Mess Meeting; being pressed as to how long after, he answered at once, only about half an, hour. Gentlemen, the spirit of such evidence . will be too ob vious to you to require that I 'should obtrude any observation upon it ; you will, I dare say, be led to inquire, as I have alone, whence suc h an extra o r di nary spirit could have arisen aaainst an Officer who has served in the regiment little less than filleen years, and nearly arrived at the rank of a Field Officer. I can only account for it by that strange misconception which, as was obseryed on my part on the commencement of these proceedings, would, it was hoped, be proved- to have alone produced the charges against ma; and which would naturally act and re-act in their production. Gentlemen, Mr. Pyle, a- Clerk from Messrs. Greenwood and Co.'s, was called, and. has confirmed what I admitted ; and told you also, on my interro gating him, that I had previously deposited with them two bills, to the amount of nearly 5501. which bills remain still in thei; possession, not having yet been paid, and that I had not re ceived any money from the House on these two securities, and that my account with them was nearly balanced ; at a rough guesi, there probably might be againat me ten or fifteen pounds. In regard to the third and last chargecittrof ri nom-impor tant character in' its military application. It has been proved 'by Adjutant Hirst, and, admitted by me, that I was absent without leave on the 2d and 3d of March, from the 16th to the 19th of April, from the 30th of June to the 111th of July, and from the 6th to the 9th of August, all in the present year. On being cross-examined, though he .could not recollect quite so 'clearly for the defence as he did for the prosecution, yet he did not know of my ever having been absent without leave before, duling the whole time I have been in the regiment, and he must have known it if I had, from the official situation lie holds ; nor, in the same capacity, did he know of my having asked leave, from the time the Regiment left Windsor to the time at which I wrote. him on the.29th June, on an occasion which it appears, from the letter he produced, was one of the most important that can influence the human heart and mind. Of these periods of absence yott will observe, that on one only does the prosecutor (Sir R. frill) lay any stress, viz. that on the 30th of June— Gendemen, it is my duty to, explain to you the whole. The tirst occurrence, of two days absence, arose simply from my having rode ont to' St. Alban's, intending to return the same day, when I wasa a nexpectedly detained to the a t nount o f t i me stated. But nave no doubt Sir Robert Hill will admit that I apologised for my having, been so detained, 'that he admitted 'my apology, and was perfectly satisfied. This was the first occurrence of the kind that had taken place during my whole service. On the, second occasion, under the circumstances as I have already stated, I, on account of my friend, was suddenly taken into the custody of the Civil Power ; and as soon as arranged matters, I immediately returned to my regiment. The third occasion.--It will be proved to you that I received information of my father, who was in' the 85th year of his age, having broken.his leg, in consequence of which a mortification 'had ensued, and that he was in a most dangerous state. On this I immediately applied for leave of Sit Robert 'Hill, for the pur pose of attending my father 'at Worcestea. Sir -Robert felt it necessary to refuse me ; which, under the circumstances, and being - the first 'time I had asked leave since the Regiment left Windsor,.as you have heard, I am sure he could not have refus ed me without some reason. The reason, ,as you have also'heard given in evidence, was the absence of other Officers. Under .standing, after my first note, that an Officer, then on pleasure at Ramsgate was about to return, I deemed the cause of refusal done away; and, confident that Sir R. Hill's filial feelings would no longer detainthe under the torturous anxiety which I suffered, I wrote to .the Adjutant the letter which has been produced, and. set Off to attend my father. Gentlemen, if I have; in obeying such a call, erred as a soldier, I trust you will deem me right-as a man—my place was supplied, and no ins jury arose to the regiment from my absence;, it is the only in stance of such a kind during my service in the regiment, and was, I had hoped, forgiven ; and as no charge had arisen upon it, till the last instance of which I am about to speak. In the decision of your hearts upon this subject, Gentlemen, it is my duty to chew you that I do not impose upon you that in which you are not justified by the very letter of military law. .The Articles of War e from tbejr kat : regular institution to the presentanoment, as will be seen by the sth and fah Artacleft-of the 14th section, have even qualified the prohibition of absence without leave, by the exception of cases of evident'and urgent necessity. A more evident or a snore urgent necessity, I pre_ sumo, can hardly be found, than ,sat which I have just sub mitted, Gentlemen, to your feelings, any more than the uncon troulable arm of the Civil Power. The last instance, from the 6th to the 9th of August, is also one of the latter description. As in the former one, I-arranged it as quickly as could be done, not losing an instant, and imme diately returned to the regiment. Sir Robert Hill was fully acquainted with the circumstance, and if a regimental return had taken place, would, in course, not have returned me absent without leave, but in the custody of the Civil Power. Having necessarily spoken of being twice abstracted from my regiment by the Civil Power, it is now necessary, Gen tlemen, that I should explain to you the cause of it, and shew you, as I sh a ll prove, that it did not arise ,from any. pecuniary, defect of my own means, such as to render me: incapable of preserving the due credit of an officer in Isis Majesty's service. I entered that service with all the ar dour of a young mats of competent fortune, and always identified myself with my brother officers, and considered their, happiness as my own. Among those of a former regiment was Mr. Radcliff, whose fortune -is ample, but it is in Jamaica, and the deterioration of such property of late years is too well known to need description. Living up to his income, he was not prepared for this evil, and found a tem porary assistance necessary, which I was proud to afford him. Circumstances have grown worse, instead of better, as he ex pected ; this assistance, at the present moment; as 'will be shewn to you, amounts to no less a sum than between five and six • thousand. pounds. Having come to an arrangement with the opulent firm of Boddington far the care of his estate, he contemplated•the speedy payment of the sums I had progrea sively advanced to him, and 1, in consequence, became his se curity for' one thousand guineas. His merchants having to make a disbursement of many thousand pounds, were pre vented for the present being so liberal as they probably might otherwise have been, and in consequence Mr. Radcliff was not able to liquidate this security for one thousand guineas. Soon after he retired to France, and this circumstance, for the first time distrustful, made them feel it necessary to' proceed against me, which, as you will learn from one of them, was the sole cause of my having been so placed in the hands of the Civil Power for the days mentioned in the second and fourth allega tion of the. charge. • In being thus compelled, by the institution of these charges, to mention the name and circumstances Oa brother officer, for 'whom I ever entertained the highest regard, I trust it will not be deemed to imply any imputation against him, convinced that ‘he would not, for worlds have subjected me to the incur rence.of one of these charge's against me on his account, which he well knew would never have been incurred on my own.— Confiding,. then, to your honourable minds, Gentlemen, both the points which, 'as well as all others of a similar nature, that some who probably hear me know I have ever preserved as a 'sacred trust, I shell not detain you longer than to shew that I have not hitherto been-deemed a character unworthy your at tention. Nothing can be more repugnant to any well-consti tuted mind than to speak of one's self on any occasion, but in such .a case as. this it is unavoidably necessary. 'Froth a multiplicity, of, communications which I have been urged to examine, I 'therefore select a few, from which delicacy will only permit a small extract of facts, which extract shall, if •destred, be marked for the inspection' of the Court in the originaLa. It will thus he seen, as regards the Ist Regiment in which I 'serVed, that in October, 1804, Colonel Creagh, then of - the 29th, and. now .of the 131st root, an Officer not prodigal of cohiplimeht, had the goodness to write to me from America, hoping that they might see use there shortly ; obligingly add ing, on the subject of my probably rejoining that Regiment, that nothing could give hisa, or the Officers, more sincere pleasure. , In December of the same year, General Dugald Campbell • announced to me that the Earl of Hardwick, then Lord Lie utenant of, Ireland, had been pleased to recommend me to his Royal Highness the Duke of York, and had written again to urge it, previously to my return to America. Nor haa the con descending kindness of this exalted person ceased upto this mo ment, nor, I trust, been forfeited by me in the slightest degree, since, so recently as January last, his Lordship was, pleased to interpose his kind offices to endeavour to obtain for me a Ma jority by Brevet. In March, 1805, Major-General Sir J. W. Gordon announced the recommendation of me to the Duke of York by the late General Sir David Dundas, for an appoint. PRICE SEVI?,NbEN CE meat in his own Regiment, the Greys. Another letter chews merely the consideration in which I was held by Lieutenant_ General Sir George Cooke. In 1507, Lord- W. G. Somerset did me the honour to announce, in the most obliging terms, that his brother, Lord Edward Somerset, would be glad to receive me in the 4th Dragoon Guards. The succeeding peliod;to the resent time, will be seen to: have been passed in- my present Regiment, and therefore to forbid_ a similar, selection ; but while I must thus abstain front an obvious propriety, I must not omit to state that my communications have not been less satisfactory ; and that I am suremy Prosecutor will admit, that up, to the moment of instituting these charges, I have.ever beer. - on good terms with all my brother Officers. . One name I can not forbear to mention, froth the lasting honour which it con fers on our Regiment, and the high estimation in which it is holden everywhere ;—it is that of Major-General Sir John Elley, lately in command of the Corps; anti I trust he will forgive me for desiring io put the seal of his most worthily distinguished name to those of the eminent persons I have before mentioned. I shall only presume to say, that he alwayi -did me the - honour of his most condescend ing kindness while my CoMmanding Officer, and up to the last week continued the same conduct, heartily wishing, in common with Lord H ar d w i c k e, t ha t 1 could obtain a Ma jority. Since I have been tilaced in - this unhappy • reverse of condition, I addressed, rather too late, a formal let ter to imch of my three Commanding Officers . , and though in England, Scotland, and Ireland, have received the answers which I lay before you. I cannot but feel gratified, in men timing Sir John Ityng (a name associated with England's glory), who, though employed with his usual activity in .the command of the most extensive district:in England, lost not a post in answering according to its terms. - Nor can my grafi 'tilde be less to Major-General Balfour..-Sir . John Elley is the. third. 1 shall now, Gentlemen, proceed to call only two wit nesses to prove the facts I have stated in-this address, and then leave my case in your hands ; only returning my most grateful thanks for the attention which you have Ofordett to it through out, and the desire which you have manifested to aid the search after truth, so honourable to the character of a British Court- Martial. • Captain JEBB then observed; that something was-said about . the Duke of W e lli ng t on h av i ng reprimanded him ; if Lis Grace were pleased to do so, on. any one' of the. charges before the Court, such a reprimand being a punishment, the charge would not be maintained s here. Lieutenant-Colonel Clement Hill was then called, who proVed that he wax in command of the regiment on the 2d and. 3d of March ; that Captain Jebb was absent;. that when he returned he apologized for having been detained by his friend, but that it was the first .time, and-he readily excused it. - . • Mr. George Whitehead proved that Captain Jebb had,in consequence of becoming security for Mr. Radcliffe for 1050/. been, on the departurz'ot Mr. Radcliff, taken, into the custody of the Sheriff by his clients in April and August last ; that Mr. _Radcliff was a man of 6,0Q0/. ivvear, as he knew from good authority, and that his bill would have been discoUnted by witness's Bankers, Chambers and CO., but for some dill:deuce between pitrties who had considered Captain Jebb as hardly used in the business, and would not have taken any proceed ings against him but for the departure of Mr. Radcliff. S. Buxton, Esq. being called, stated his knowledge of tlinse arrests of - Captain Jebb in April and August; his -having rea son to expect liberation immediately, as lie had sent to witness, who had paid the money in one instance, and Captain Jcb , ; )'s brother in the other. Mr. SCOTT then tendered the documents to be delivered in as evidence of what had been stated in the address, among which were securities for between 5 and 441.101. due to Capt. Jebb. • These letters were then produced,' as the answers to'a letter of Capt. Jebb to each of the Commanding-M= s of the regi ments in width he had served,,the 119th Pout, Scotch Grevs, and the Blues, being from Sir J. Byn g , G eri: B a ltb ur, and sir John Elley, whol all testified to his character 'as'in Officer and a Gentleman ; and the latter— r that,there was no duty which he would not perform with energy. The defence here closed. Col. Hill required half an hoer - to reply, which was gpinted.. On the Court being opened, he readit. It was in substance. —That his charges were chiefly proved ;-119 knew nothin g o t Capt.

SIR—I have received and laid before the Lords Commis sioners of the Admiralty your letter (and its inclosure) of the 28th ult. in which you state several particulars of your con duct in the situation you lately held at St. Helena, and re-• quest " that their Lordships would, as soon as their important duties should allow, connnunicate to you their judgment thereupon." • Their Lordships have lost no time in considering your state ment ; and they command me to inform you; that (even with out reference to the complaints made against you by Lieut.- General Sir H. Lowe) they find 'in your admissions ample grounds for marking your proceedings with their severest displeasure. But there is one passage in your said letter of such a nature as to supercede the necessity of animadverting upon any other part of it. This passage is as folloWs :—" In th e thi r d i nterv i ew w hi c h Sir Hudson owe had with Napoleon Buonaparte in the.month of May, 1818, he imposed to the latter to send Lire away and to replete me by 'Mr. Baxter, who had been several years sur geon in the Corsican Rangers... This proposition was rejected with indignation thy Napoleon Buonaparte, upon the ground of the indelicacy of a propdsal to substitute an Army Sur-. geon for the private Surgeon of his own choice. " Failing in this attempt Sir. Hudson Lowe adopted the re-. solution of mani:estizt; great confidence in me by loading the with civilities, invitin; me constantly to dinner with him; co/14 versing for hours together w ith me a t one, b ot h i n h i s own house and grounds, and at Longwood, either in my own room or under the trees and elsewhere. On some of these occasions he made to me observations upon the benefit which would result' to Europe from the death of Napoleon Buonaparte, of which event he spoke in a manner which, considering his situation and mine, was peculiarly diStreising to me." It is impossible to doubt the meaning which this passage was intended to convey, and my Lords can as little doubt that, the insinuation is a caluminous falsehood ; but if it were true,• and if so horrible a suggestion were made to you, directly or indirectly, it was your bounden'auty not to have lost a moment in communicating it to the Admiral on . the spot, or to the cretary of State, or to their Lordships.. An overture so monstrous in itself, and so deeply involving not merely the personal charatter of the Govenor, brit the honour of the nation, and the important interest committed to . his charge, should not have been reserved in . your own breast for'two years, to be produced at last, not (as it would appear) from a sense or public duty, but in furtherance of your per-. sonal hostility against the Governor. , Either qii:cliar g e is in the last degree false and chlumnious, or you can have no. possible excuse for having hitherto sup.: pressed it. In either case, and without adverting to the general tenor of your conduct, as stated 'in your letter, my Lords consider you to be an improper person to continue in his Majesty's service, and they have directed your name to be erased from the list of Naval Surgeons accordingly.—l have, &c. J. W. cnoimit. Mr. O'Meara, 28, Cheater-place, Kennington.- FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 27, 1822 THE ARMY. DEFENCE OF CAPTAIN JEBB, OF TUE ROYAL MORSE-CITARDS (BLUE). Hyde-Park Barrcicks, Sept. 26 . . This morning, at ten o'clock, the COurt again assembled, pursuant to their adjournment from Tuesday, when Captain JOHN JEBB entered the Court, accompanied by his -Counsel and several friends.,-Colonel was examined, as were also the Quartermaster and Adjutant,. but •,nothing material occurred—Captain JEBB then rose, and requested Oat his Counsel might be permitted to read his address, as, from some interlineations, it was inconvenient for him to do it.—A long discussion took place, after which Captain JERB read it him self, as follows _ _ Colonel, President, and Gentlemen of this Hon. Court—l shall not detain you, by prefatory obse rva ti ons l onger t h an i s absolutely necessary to explain to your just sense of military discipline my actual position in the case before you. Having .had the honour to serve in two of the best regiments in his .Majesty's service--the 29th Foot and the Scots Oreys, and nearly fifteen years in the Blues, with peauliar. approbation, • I am sure you will recognise the feelings w i t h w h ic h I a m, for the first time in my life, put on my trial ; and on charges which, thotigh in their full extent they individually imply not any thing derogatory to my cltardst4 as a adldier, are yet, collectively; . - very repugnant' M. my 'spirit as a gentle man. Whence they have arisen, I shall not seek to dis cover ; but of.thi s , I t rust , I shail,be able to convince you, that either they must have been generated by an extraordinary misconception. of one mind in one year, or the highly distin guished pepons, whose testimonials I am unwillingly obliged. to produce, must have most extraordinarily have mistaken toy character for upwards .of twenty years, and to the present mo ment. My first knowledge of th ese c h arges t oo k. p l ace w h en having been, under circumstances hereafter to be • described, absent for a part . of four days, which came not under the de signation of absence without leave. _On the 10th of last month I was ordered to attend Sir Robert Hill, When he was pleased to prOpose arrangements, which, however prOfitable -to me in some points of view, I could not accede to with that sense of honour which I hope ever has, and ever will, direct me. lam thus before you, Gentlemen, and dm happy to 'leave to y our discrimination . and experience the decision, of my case. You have heard the evidence, and have, no doubt remarked the tone in which much of it wits given I shall now.proceed to ex. amine what it has "proved. In support of the first charge there ha been produced an order of Sir Robert Hill's, made last year in the country quar ters, and, as .far as I have been able to construe, it:applied chiefly to the. Clerks of Troops, and the'adjustment of their accounts. This I know, that neither myself nor any other Of ficer ever considered it in the light of an imperative command that he should pay the Quartermaster of his troop any charge which may arise against him, often of the most trifling amount, precisely on the Quarter-d a y ; or rat h er , as wou ld appear from the evidence on another charge, to the very mo ment the clock strikes 12 on Quarter-day, whether he shall be present or not, op duty, or on leave. It is a inatter, as you know Gentlemen, entirely between hi s Q uar t ermaster an d himself; unleiS, indeed, the latter, or rather in his person, the service, should sustain any injury, which is not even asserted in this case. The witness called to prove a violation of this order did, indeed, in answer to a question put to him by me; to ascertain that fact, say, in a manner that could not be lost upon the Court, that it had injured his character ; and when asked how,_ explained it by his having received n o ti ce o e a bill which he had received in payment from Captain Jebla • and for which he had obtained •cash from Mr. Jennings, - of Windsor, being unpaid. That bill, Gentlemen, was the secu rity for a valuable consideration, of a person, as you will hear proved, of West India property to the value of 60001. a year, and was payable at his merchant's, an eminent finis in London, where many thousands had been paid on his account, and where I could not but suppose so small an amount would be readily paid. And how, long did it remain unpaid ? The Quartermaster has informed you four days why it was even thus long, I shall, I hope, satisfactorily explain. I was t h en at Salt Hill, where I heard, to my astonishment, of its ntri payment on one day ; the following day I went to Mr. Jen nings_ to satisfy him on the subject, and relieve the,Quarter master from every responsibility. I had to go to London for ' the money, to return to Salt Bill, and then to go to Windsor • with the money. Mr. Jennings was satisfied—he would have indulged me in any way ; but I accepted no indulgence ; I got the money as quickly as the three distances would allow, and I as promptly paid it. I know not what may be the refine- - ment of my ,Quartermaster's ideas upon his personal charac ter, but this we all know, that the most opulent m erc h ant i n London, who should indorse a bill to the Bank of England, which was not paid when due, would consider the very deli cate nature of his character injured by its passage through his hands ; nor could he do more than pay it hirhself when re turned to him. To prove the breach of the order, Quartermaster Speed said that he had regularly presented the accounts every three months to me, and I had not settled them, nor taken any steps so to do, not, as he several times repeated, according to the order; that is to say, his new construction of. it ; and in corroboration pointed out in his book, an instance where he said I had paid five quartera at once - : In this it is evident he was, in common with other witnesses, in error. However this payment was made to him in June, 1821, just fifteen months ago, and that neither before, nor during these fifteen months, had he, either from his legal precision. in' construing orders, or his extreme . sensibility of character, discovered that, I had done him wrong, - the Regiment wrong, the service, or in fact any wrong at all, till the present occasion, when charges, for the first time in my long service, were to be framed against-me, as he informed me, and he was peculiarlycalled upon to contribute to them. 1 say peculiarly, fivm the circumstance of his acquainting me of it a few days ago, that he had been even interrogated whether the last money which I paid him• was really money. Gentlemen, this witness has been my - Quartermaster and Clerk of my Troop for seven, years. It is not my habit to indulge in &mi. liarity with such persons, and therefore there was no propitia tion on my part, if the order had even been by him construed, or others, to this nicety of payment of the current accounts. The account was settled and the order virtually obeyed, when it was submitted to me that sums, such as Is. ad. for the Vete rinary Surgeon, 74d. for Barrack damages, 3s. for clerking, Is. for nails for the stables, a few shillings for repair of arms, and were admitted by me to be correctly charged, and he could have the money when he wanted it. He distinctly, in his evi dence, said that he never asked me for money, though he after wards, on interrogation, endeavours, rather singularly as a wit ness, to - argue that the bare exhibition of his book to me four times a year, was a demand of money, equally singularly and gratuitously swearing that I knew the order. On being cross examined, he acknowledged, though very unwillingly, that so far from his former evidence of opinion, that shewing the book was an instantaneous demand of payment, I had had to apply to him for' my account, th a t I h a d asked him at times if he wanted money . ? and that he had answered in the negative, as he afterwards desired to qualify it, that he did not want it im mediately, that he was in no great hurry. Will this evidence, Gentlemen, admit of the constructive disobedience with which only in the present month, September, lam charged to have been guilty in June, 1821 ? In the lapse of time, and with an utter unconsciousness of having ever been guilty of any act unbecoming the character of an Officer or a Gentleman, you must be aware there may. have been many facts and incidents that I might have adduced in my favour, which are now lost to me : it was upon this wise principle that his Majesty has, been pleased to signify his displeasure against, and the Duke of York to prohibit in General (Wen, charges • being withheld till they should accumulate, for the purpose of being Collectively brought forward at a distant period. It will, I am sure, Gentlemen, be borne in mind by you, that Quartermaster Speed proved that I was not in debt to hh - a in • any way at the period of instituting these charges. He said my • last payment was o n t h e 19 t h o f A ugus t. I think I can prove. it was even much earlier; so that, in fact, I am, not charged with the evil, if any, till after I have evinced its entiie,remedy, and that without being conscious of any necessity for it. On the second charge, Gentlemen, I shill trouble you but, very shortly. The Messman, Corporal Bell, after a very inco— herent testimony, proved, or rather 1 admitted, my having given , him a draft upon the Agents for my mess account, amounting, to 251. ; that the Agents declined paying it; and, that, on my being,informeti of it, I gave him another for 52/. (it was for 31t. 75.), which included the 25/. and what had occurred sub.. sequently ; and was not therefore, as would appear from the charge,•two separate bills' fcli two separate sums and separate accounts : that I expressed my surprise, and accompanied the, new draft by a letter to Messrs. Greenwood and Co. Corporal Mayor, the Mess Clerk, besides something he had heard from the Messman, proved his having presented these at the Agents', and that their Clerk said he would see Mr. Cox upon, it, so that' my application appears evidently tp have been grounded. He
