SIR S. HOOD AND 41R. SHERIDAN.

A Meeting of Sir SAMUEL HOOD'S .friends was
yesterday held at Wild,ts's Rooms, King:street, at
five o'clock. About half past six o'clock the com-
pany; - consisting of _upwards of two hundred, sat
dos n to dinner ;' Colonel ELLIOT iOthe Chair; the
Duke of YotZies band Attending. •
After the usual Toasts of " The King"—" Queen
and Royal Family"—.—were given the Chairman pro-
posed " The Health of Sir Samuel-I
-food ;" which
was drank with' three times three.
Sir SAMUEL rose, and was able only- to utter,
that he thanked the Meeting for the kindneSs and
attention they had this day shewn him. His feel-
ings seemed too. great to give him further utter-
ance.,
Mr. WIIITEREAD having moved, for a Song, Capt
fRENE, of the Navy, sung, with great effect, "Bri-
_ tans' Best Bulwarks are her Wooden WaN."'
7 he Chairman stated., that •Sir S. HOOD was anxi-
oils to propose a Toast.
Sir S. tloop' gave "'.Mr. SheridAn, and Success to
him in his Election ;" which was drank with three
times three. •
Mr. SnEuipAw.declared, that much as he might,
on. various occasions, have felt himself -flattered by
public declarations of approbation, none had, .on
.any occasion, been so flattering to him as that which
- be had experienced to-day. More might: natu-
• rally be expeded to be said .by him than by • the
brave. Commodore, Whose health had been pre-.
vionSly•cfra'nk,•tho-ugh . they innat. easily.have..per-
, ceived that his heart was full With gratitude for the
suppOrt they ' had given gratitude for-
• that support_they had so manifestly given him, and
he had, so. well deserved. • Agreeing, as he hoped
;they did, in one common oh:Jed—that the EleEtors of
-thiS City had something, left to deserve support, 'he
apd,the brave. Commodore seemed to differ only in
one thing, namely, how this objeCt was to be accom-
plished. , His way. was by ,speaking of it ; the gal-
lant- Commodore's was more noble, namely, by
f4;liting. It was by no means with surprise that he
liad read a charge made by Mr. Paull against them,-
- that they mortally detested each other. On what
- • ground such a charge was insinuated he knew not.
But let this services of 26_ years, and the gallant!
Commodore's more noble services. of a.longer stand-

and by which hiS Hon.' Friend had lost bis arm, an-

L INFORMATION.

.Mr. Gm-mow moved fora Rule to sl4w cade
why a Criminal Information should not be filed
against a Gentleman of the name of 'Winton, for
writing a letters, containing- a challenge, to a Mr.
Gordon. The affidavit of Mr. Gordon • stated, that
ha had been educated by a Gentleman of large for-
tuae residing at Stanstead, in- Essei ; but finding
his remittances had been discontinued, he appre-
hended it arose from indispositidnin his friend ; he
accordingly, went to him, and there he found that a
Mrs.- Greygoth and Mr._ Winton had insinuated
themselves into the management of his affairs, and
that in fa& his: situation, was such as to render it
necessary to. take . out a commission of lunacy ;
which was done, and Mr. Gordon was appohited
by Committee.. This was the gwund of Mr. Win-
ton's enmity, and was the occasion of his writing
the letter which the Leartied Counsel .read. It
first accused Mr. Gordon of havirr traduced the

to 'discharge a man arrested fora sum over ten,

the Plaintiff; if this was not the case, Their Lord-
ships would have, more business to do than the Mas-
ters in Chancery. The Court must see Omit- ap-
plications of this kind met with their countenance,
it necessarily followed, that the cause and founda-
tion of every atElarit' on which such aiiplications
..were grounded, should be investigated by the Court,
which, in fait 'would be excluding the 'Trial by

EDINBURGH, Nov. 12.

HIGH COURT OF JUSTICIARY.
The Court met on Wednesday, on the • Case 'of
John Thomson and John Nqlsoti; accused of forging
or uttering guinea notes of the Bank of Scotland,
knowing them to be forged. The prisoners were
brought to trial on the 11th of August last for the
21)&6 crime, when they pleaded Not Guilty.—
The trial then proceeded, and after the Counsel for
the Crown, for the prisoners; and the Lord Justice
Clerk, had addressed the Jury, they were ordered
to inclose. When- they had retired one of them
was missing, but afterwards returned, was inclosed,
and concurred in the verdid, unanimously finding
both Prisoners Guilty of uttering eight of the notes
libelled, knowing them to be forged.
Oh the verdict being read, the Counsel for 11:e.,
Prisoners insisted that no judgment could pass on it,
as one Juryman had left the before they were
inclosed, had been absent about 15 or 20 min-utes„
and hod conversed with several people before he re-
turned.

The Counsel for the Crov,m answered these ob-
jeetions, and maintained that the Juryman, when
out of Court, bad no conversation with any person,
relative to the trial.

The Court examined all the people with whom
the Juryimui was said to have conversed, and took
down their evidence in writing..
The Court ordered informations; and on Wed-
nesday their Lordships delivered their opinions at
`considerable length. Three of their Lordships, viz.
Lords JUSTICE CLERK, DUNSINNAN, and MEADOW-
•BANK, were for repelling the objection—thee other
two, Lords CRAIG and CULLEN, were for sus-
taming it—Lord ARMADALE was not present.
Tile Court, • therefore, by a majority, repelled the
objection ; and, in consequence of the verdiet of the.
• Jury, ordained e prisoners to be executed at, the
cionnnon place of execution in this city, on Wed-
nesday the loth of December next.
The Lord Justice CLERK; in pronot ncing. the
judgment of the Court, addressed himself in very
pathetic terms to the Prisoners, who appeared inut:n
affeCted by their awful situation.

ARMY ,ESTIMATES..

The .SECRETARY IVAit moved, That the
House dO now resolve into aiCoMmittee!,of Supply,.
for the purpose of voting the • Army Estimates for
three months service, which he had laid on the Ta-
ble a few eveningS since.. The Hon. Gentleman re-
capitulated "his farmer Statement of the day, naMely,,
that his motive for presenting the Estimates only for
three months; ,kas to prevent embarrassment-to ,the,
public service during the unavoidable -delay which,
in the present state of affairs, must occur in the
formation of a new Ministry, and the probable ad-
journment of the House for a fortnight, in order
for the re-?legions that
.must take place in conse-
quence of such appointments. • This, and not any
wish to obtrude himself further into the•business of
the Office, had induced him to bring the Estimate.
thus forward. The duties of the station would, he
presumed not to doubts fall into the hands of a suc-
cessor much more competent • than himself; and
those Gentlemen whOse opinions were in favour of
a different arrangement would have an opportunity
of. adopting their own system at no Very distant
periods

_ .
The House accordingly resolved into a Committee
of Supply, and ,voted the following Estimate
,for
three months ; 134,473 Men, including Officers and
Non-commissioned Officers, for general service;
1,193,1051. for defraying the charges thereof;
505,037], for Military Services in the Plantations,
Ceylon, Mediterranean, New South Wales, and
Special Services ; and 617,5841,.f0r the Militia of
Great Kritain and Ireland.—Ordered to be repotted
to-morrow.
Adjourned.

APFAIRt OF IRELAND.

Mr. J. FITZOERALD, pursuant to his notice
on a former night, rose to move for leave to bring
in a Bill for ascertaining the Population of Ireland.
To the ,Right Hon: Gentleman-who filled the Chair .
of the House, this Country stood indebted for that
valuable desideratum in political economy, a well-
-digested plan for ascertaining the Population of Great.
Britain. Butlhowever desirable it was to assimilate in
this respect with regard to Ireland, there were many
local impediments that precluded the adoption of the
plan. In that Country, unfortunately, there was
no general registry of births, baptisms, or marriages,
nor any of those Pocir Laws established in England,
by which the Overseers in the several Parishes
'might give such essential aid on the inquiry. To re-
medy as much as possible these defects, in the Bill
he should' have. the - honour to present, a Clause
would, be included, for enabling the Magistrates of
.the City :of Dublin; with their ReCorder, and the
Magistrates at the ',Quarter Sessions in, the different
Counties, to nominate-one or.more Householder in
the several Baronies or other Distrias, to enumerate
the Populations in each ; the pay of such persons to
be raised by the usual mode of Grand Jury Assess-
ment. If the House should. be pleased to perinit
him to introduce the Bill; he should, after. the first 1
reading, riot wish it to:he read a second finite till -a
-distant day, when the Gentlemen of Ireland should
be in their places.—l.kaVe was given. :
Mr. W. KEENE MOved,,That there be laid on the
Table a Copy of the Claim presented to the' Governor
and Coimoil of the EaSt India Governmenraf Ben-
-gal, relative to 'the Debt,i due by thelate and pre-
sent, Nabob of Oude, and by the said GoVortior and

CORK, AtIG. 25.—The Transport Ship Osborne,
Captaid MOFFATT, has arrived in this harbour. Her
intelligence is of a very disagreeable nature. She
made one of a. Fleet of 'twenty-two sail which left
Quebec, under Convoy of His Majesty's Ship
-Champion. Three of that number were Trans-
ports, having on board the tith Regiment of Foot,
consisting of four hundred and sixty-seven men ;'the
other .Ships were Merchantmen. On the 15th in-
stant, seven of the Convoy parted at different periods
of the day; and on the same day they fell in with
a strange Siil,which, when within four miles oftha
Champion, not answering the private signal, it: 'was
intimated to the Ships of the Fleet to disperse. It
was shortly discovered that the strange Ship was att
.enemy, and a Line of Battle Ship. She was obierveti
to board five sail 'during.the day, which were set on.
fire'. .Aiiotber sail was distinguished to leeward,
bearing S. by E. which had also the appearance of a
Mait of War, and as a fire was discernible in that
direction, she was also judged to be an enemy.—Tho
Osborne has part Of the Oth Foot on.-board.
