MI LITA RY TOUR.
JILIN' Lt..
In our mogreu to this pleasant little town, we
pass Bepeep Barracks. These are situated on Bul-
verhide Salts. The very name will convey to
you the idea of aR. Here again, very judici-
ously. are ere:led a few more Martell° towers. A
kind of breastweirk appears to have been newly
thrown up alongside the road, parallel to which is
sunk a narrow fosse. home detachments from las-
Ougs line this part of the coast, winch seems to be
sow tolerably well proteaed.
Eco.hill barracks are large and commodious.—
They are built in a very healthy and elevated situ-
ation, and at present contain three regiments of the
line, viz. the Stl, or old Buis; and the Ist and
battahons of the 7th Foot. The former have
been stationed there for some time ; the latter have
but just marched in from Plymouth, where they
lately arrived from Halifax. The 4th Dragoon
Guards take the coast duty from thence to Win-
Chelsea.
Trxxeste LEVEL.
Here, again, an agreeable scene is presented to
our view, similar to that of which we lately took
leave on our approach to Bye. A fine open
ehanapaign country exteids itself on one sided you,
for a considerable distance, which, with the ocean en
the other, forms a partedl and uninterrupted horison.
Here again, too, commences a chain of Martell°
'ewers, which. with much propriety. are continued as
far as Beach', Head : so that the immense Bay of
Pever.sey, which, till lately, was left shamefully un-
proteded, is now formidably defended by a cordon
of impregnable Batteries. These 'rowan in number
amount to St, and are ereeed at equal distances.
Romney Marsh and Pevensey Level liave always
been considered the most valuable parts of our
coast ; the Cliff brcakite.: entirely away, and leaving
•us exposed by Nature for miles together. It was
here that the greatest apprehensions were enter-
tained on the score of invasion. The deka, how-
ever, is now conagletely provided for ; and the
Empire is no l endangered by its holding out
'an invipiiioa tat • g and implacable etrorny.

arc miens
At the termination of the Martell° Towers, and
to the eastward of the Barracks, which are built
near the sea, about a mile from the town, a strong
fort is conat ncting, called the Thirteen-Gun-B•t-
-tcrr. This tort is capabl; Of holding a small regi-
ment, and, when complete,l, will materially add
to the suurity of the place. 'The Barracks at pre-
sent arc occupied by the Northumberland Militia,
under the pc:smial command of Lord Louvaine,
woo is .low with his regiment. the lit Devon Mili-
tia, and a park of artillery. General Dyett is daily
etpaded here, to take the command of the Garri-
son, having bets rezently appointed to this part of
the distria.

DUILIN, Om IL

An unfortunate affray took place on. Thursday
last, on board a tender lying near the Pigeon House,
by Which six men on board lost their lives. This
melancholy business is variously stated : it is said,
that owing to the introduftion of too much spiriti
on board. a quarrel, took place between a number
of recruits froth the North, and those who had en
tered from this city ;—the Northern, being much
greater in numbers, the sufferers were chiefly of the
other party ; hut whether this sad accident was ow-
ing to the wounds received in the contest, or by
suffocation from being too closely hatched down,
we have not been yet able to learn ; somethiag
very criminal must have It d to this catastrophe,
which should be fully investigated without loss of
time.
The North Downshire Regiment of Militia,
com-
manded by Sir J. Blackwood, Bart. on Wednesday
and the day before, marched through Dublin in two
divisions, ou their route from Arklow io Drogheda,
where they are is be quartered for the winter.
The Post-boy conveying the mail from Wicklow
to Arklow, was stopped about the hour of half past
four o'clock yesterday morning, by a single robber,
who robbed him of the whole mail, containing the
bags of letters which Were dispatched from the Ge-
neral Post Office, for the following post towns. via.
Arklow, Broadway. Gorey, Eaniscorthy, Ferns,
Oulart, and Wexford.
The Earl of Harrington arrived at Limerick on
the 14th, from Birr, on his tour to review the troops
in the South of Ireland.
Lord Charlemont is not only pronounced nut of
danger, by his physician:, but last approaching to
a recovery. His Lordship's disorder was a dysen-
tery.
No candidate has yet declared himself to stand
for the representation of the county of Louth, in
the Imperial Parliament ; a vacancy for which has
occurred by the death of the venerable Earl Cler-
moot, and the elevation to the Peerage of Mr. For-
tescue. Lord Jocelyn is in kis minority, and there-
fore at present
The county of Donegal is likely to be once more
represented by their long-pled knight of the shire,
Henry Brook, Ertl. that gentleman having com-
menced a canvas to be again returned at the nett
general eleslion, into the Imperial Parliapient.
A reptirt having been industriously circulated,
that Mr. Grattan does not mean to become a can-
didate for this city, in the event of a generel elec-
tion, we have authority to astute our readers, that
Mr. Grattan will ever be prompt to als,:y the call of
his old friends and constituents, the Eledors of
Dublia, and they are hereby requested to hold them-
selves disengaged, until the fad of a dissolution of
Parliamera shall be ascertained.
QUARTER ASSEMBLY.

A resolution was made, which, we hope, will be
attended with effe.i, for removing beggars and their
children from the streets ; where the former Nave of,
late adopted a peculiar species of nuisance, by ap-
proachirg the carriages and houses of ladies, with
children infeeled with small poz, tee.
Address:s were unanimously ordered to he pre-
sented, in boxes made of shitlelagh oak, to Sir John
Stuart; Sir David Baird, Sir Home Popham, Sir
Samuel Rom:Land General Beresford.
The vote of 1,0001. to the late Lord Flavor, was
carried by a majority ; as was also an Address of
Thanks to him, moved by Mr. Shaw. A motion
to have the Address presented in a gold box, was
lost on a division, 57 against 24. It does not ap-
pear who made the leter motion ; but, for the in-
formation of the Assembly, Mr. Giffard anuounccd
that it did not come horn Mr. Shaw. •
On a motion to give the Freedom of the Apo-
thecaries to Mr. Crampton, Mr. Giffard asked if
the gentleman was a Protestant t
Mr. Hinton deptecat-J such distindtions, t atti•
cularly as Catholics, who might be entitled, must
avow tberniclves as such, and claim on a special As
of Parliament.
It appeared that Mr. Crampton is a Protestant.
After the accustornaty refreshment, Mr. Giffard
said, he had authority for asserting, that ad/sty/uric:l
tf Poetic:trent srwfd t.:ke place slew the 2.74 of Skis
month ; and, therefore, moved, that Mr. Shaw, one
of the present Wirnbets, should have the zealous
and uniform st.pyort of that assembly.
This motion Was seconded by Mr. Cope.
111 r. Dixon disapproved of the proceeding. It
was a measure of top binding a nature. lie said.

ever detestable that measure, hr would not permit
the voters of Dublin to be shackled in their rights,
or he compelled, by spy premarute resolution, to
attach themselves unequivocally to any man.
Mr. Stephens spoke on the same side.
After some conversation, a division took place—
