IRISH GRAND JURY PRESENTMENTS.

The Order of the Dak for the third reading of the Irish
Grand Jury Presentments Bill having been read,
The Earl of DONOUGHMORE admitted that much good
had already been done by tile Committee from whose inquiries
the present Bill had originated. Its authors, however, had
pared the salaries of certain Officers so closely, that they would
pot be able to perform their duties. As an instance of this,
801. was the whole that could be given for medical attendance,
in the gaol of the county of Kerry, including the supply of
medicines. The result would be, that the sick would have no
aid at all. The Bill said that those who had been provided for
hitherto by presentments, should be paid by salaries, to be
received half-yearly. He doubted whether this would produce
any saving. His object was not the rejection of this Bill, but
its postponement to another Session, in order that the House
should be in possession of all the information necessary to
enable it to pass a measure at once just and efficacious. The
Bill was not to take effect till the Ist of March next ; there
would be therefore as much time to make a new one as to
amend the present, and no more ineonvenience or loss to the
country would arise from its postponement. He should there-
fore move that instead of being read now, it be read a third time
this day three months. '
The Earl of BLESINTON defended the Bill,

The LORD CHANCELLOR said that the Bill profosed
to dispose of the emoluments of patent offices, without due no-
tice having been given to the persons likely to be affected by
the change, or any compensation having been provided for them.
This was not conformable to the principle of British Legisla-
tion. If the petitions which be and others had presented to
that House were correct, the salaries fixed for Clerks of the
Crown would be less than their expences, and they had receiv-
ed no notice whatever of such a Bill having been introduced
in the other House.

The Earl of LIMERICK considered the principle of the
measure unexceptionable, as one of the causes which had
ground down the unfortunate country to which he belonged,
was the gross exactions of Grand Juries. • Yet he conceived
that the salaries proposed by this Bill were too small. At the
same time he feared that, if it were postponed, a representation
might go forth to Ireland, that their Lordships had disapproved
of its principle.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL, though he approved of the
principle of the. Bill, thought there was not sufficient time at
present to examine its details. ,if their Lordships would allow
the Bill to be put oil' now, he would engage, in the next Session
of Parliament, that another should be brought in on the same
matter, but less objectionable.
After a few observations from the Marquis of Lansdowne,
the Lord Chancellor, Lord Redesdale, and Lord Holland, the
motion was put and agreed to.
London, England, 1822-07-18

INSURRECTION ACT.

The Earl of LIVERPOOL observed, that Friday next was
the day fixed for the second reading of this Bill; but that cloy
being the anniversary of the Coronation of his Majesty, it was
probable the House would not sit; in which case some altera-
tion would be necessary to be made.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said that the Coronation Day
not having ever fallen during the Session of Parliament in his
time, he could not' state what were the precedents on the oc-
casion. By to-morrow evening, however, he should have
looked into the Journals of the House, and should'. be able
to point out what was the usual practice.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, then ,let it be understood
that if it should be found that the House is not to sit on Friday,
the second reading of the Bill and the sufhinening of the Lords
will stand for Monday next.
IRISH, PRISON LAWS. _

On the motion of Viscount ITlli, the Bill for consoli.
dating and amending the Acts respecting prisons in Ireland was
read a second time, and the Committee fixed for Friday, or for
Monday, in case the }Louse should not sit on Friday.

PEDESTRIANISM.

Blakesley, the pedestrian, undertook his match yesterday, to
run 15 miles in an hour and 35 minutes, in Ashford Park, for
a bet of 100 guineas. He did his first three miles within 18
minutes, and he performed five miles in 29 minutes and 12 se-
conds. He continued on at a winning rate, and did ten miles
in one hour and one minute. He was at this time backed at
to 4 to win, but he fell lame in the latter part of the 14th mile
and could not get on, having more than seven minutes left for
the last mile. The lameness was a sprain in the right uncle,
which lost him the match.—Another race of 100 yards was
run, for five guineas, between Cartwright and Fielder, which
was won by the former, in 11 seconds.

THE Tli EA TWFS-.

DRURY LANE.—Miss FORDV made her second
appearance as Rosetta, in Lot; Village, last
night, and her previous succesS.ove still greater
ease and_spirit both to her acting sand her singing,
and the character was very :.,yOl supported
throughout. BRAIIAM in Hawthorn, and Murr-
DEN in the Justice, were muchi'aelanuded, and so
was KNIGHT in Hodge We• AliAtijc as Hodge is
drawn with sufficient, brutal: injustice towards
poor Madge, nothing 'of that-natute should be

added in the performance, as itsatt:only render
the part more disgusting, instead Of being more
humorous. But this is a fault alivpLys observable
in the representation, and, by exciting laughter,
is too apt to blunt the feelings of justice and
humanity.

COVENT-GARDEN.—The new tragi-comic Ro-
mance of The Law of Java, as we anticipated,
gathers strength in its progress, i result natu-
rally arising from the intrinsic merits of the
piece, and the combination of talents employed
in the representation. It was honoured last
night by the presence of the Princess AUGUSTA,
an example of personal worth, active benevolence,
and dignified affability, that her sex-,of all ranks,
should zealously endeavour to imitate. It was
gratifying to see this truly amiable Princess en-
joying a few hours of moral interest, -and harm-
less merriment, with a very large portion of the
people whom this admirable play bad drawn

HIGH COURT OF ADMIRALTY, MAY 14.
GRANT TO TIM NAVY OF £116,450.

. ,
Lord STOWELL gave sentence in this case to-day. In June,
1814, the Duke of Wellington transmitted a memorial on behalf
of the army which had been acting under his command in the
Peninsula, during the years 1812, 1813, and 1814, and submit-
ted to the consideration of Parliament the claim which the
army
,trusted it possessed upon the bounty and favour of the
Legislature, for compensation in lieu of the several descrip-
tions of property and stores which had been captured by them.
To this memorial a schedule was annexed, by which the esti-
mated value of such captures appeared to be 916,4501. Eventu-
ally' Parliament granted to the army 800,0001. ; and subsequently
allotted to the navy as a " grant for naval prize" 116,4501. By
the 46th, 55th, and 57th of Geo. 111. all proceeds of prize, and
all-grants of money for naval prize, are rendered liable to a
per centage of 51. per, cent., payable to Greenwich Ilospital,
in aid of the funds of that Institution; and the present case
came before the Court under these peculiar circumstances :
The agent of Lord Keith and of the naval officers and
seamen employed in the detachments wEch operated on
the north coast of Spain, in conjunction with the Guerillas
(and which were successively under the command of Sir
Home Popham, Sir George Collier, and Admiral Penrose),
conceiving the present grant to be one of naval prize, had
paid the per centage on it, amounting to nearly 6,0001.,
into the treasury of the • hospital. Subsequently, however,
the case of the grant given for the capture of Genoa be-
ing heard in this t ourt, and it being determined that that
was the case of a conjunct expedition of, sea and land forces; so
that it did not come within the limits of those grants on which
the per centage was payable, it was imagined that the present
case, being one of continued co-operation between the anny.and
navy, particularly at St. Sebastian, was also in the nature of a
conjunct expedition. It was consequently assumed that the
money had been paid in error, and a monition was granted
against Greenwich Hospital, calling upon it to sho'iv cause why
its treasury should not refund such amount.
Lord Stowell held that the present case did not come within
the meaning of conjunct expeditions; and that the per centage
had not been paid in error.

A failure of some importance in the Tallow
trade, w•e are sorry to say, took place in the city
yesterday. The parties are most honourable
men, and the statement to be laid before the
creditors will, we doubt not, be very satisfac-
tory.--(Morning Paper.)

POETRY.

SONG OF THE BRAVE.
! what i 9 the life of the brave ?
A gift Which his baker hathgiven,
Lest nothing but tyrant and slave
Remain of Mankind under Heaven.
O ! what is the life of the brave,
When staked in the cause of his fight?
'Tis but as a drop to the wave,
A trifle he value§ as light.

And what is the death of the brave ?

A lOss which the good shalldeplcire
The virtues he strugghA to save
Are gri.iv'd to behold him no more :
'TiS the close of a glorious day,
'Tis the setting of yonder bright sun ;
A summons that welcomes away
To a Heaven already begun.

And what is the fame of the brave ?
"Fis the halo which follows his day ;
The virtuous examples he gave
Still shining in splendid array.
The blood of the coward runs cold,
The wise and the good do admire ;
But in the warm heart of the bold,
• 0, it kindles a nobler fire.

Then who would not live with the brave?
The wretch without virtue or worth ;
And who would not die with the brave ?
The coward that clings. to the earth.
And who shall partake with the brave,
The fame which his valour hath won ?
0, he that will fight with the brave
Till the battle of Freedom is won:

ON THE CIVIL GOVERNMENT OF INDIA.

The account given by the author of our civil
administration applies principally to that of Ben-
gal ; but as the same arrangements prevail at the
sister presidencies, the observations which are
made embrace the whole system of our Indian
government.
It has often struck us with astonishment how
so many millions of human beings could be go-
verned by a few foreigners. Mr. White lets us
into the secret that the country is principally
ruled by natives; or at least that the practical
administration of justice principally rests with
them.

INDIAN ARMY.

In discussing the subject of promotion by se-

author makes an interesting remark on the pur-
suits of the officers composing this branch of the

the military service of the Honourable Company,
with their respective allowances. Our opinion
of this work may be inferred from the copious
account which we have given. Independent of

THE ARMY.

APPOINTMENT AND REMOVAL (DIRECTED BY OR.
' DER) OF STAFF OFFICERS.
An Officer shall not be allowed to fill any Staff Appointment
(that of Aide-de-Camp excepted), until he has been four years
in the service.

A Subaltern Officer shall not be considered eligible to hold
the appointment of Aide-de-Camp, until he has been present
with his regiment at least one year.

Aides-de-Camp (excepting those attending his Majesty' and
the Commander-in-Chief) must not be effective Field Officers
of Regiments.

The appointments of Assistants Adjutant-General, and As-
sistants Quarter-Master-General, shall be held exclusively by
Officers having the rank of Field Officer ; the appointments of
Deputy Asiistants Adjutant-General, and Deputy Assistants
Quarter-Master-General, shall be held by Officers having the
rank of Captain ; or by Subaltern Officers, who having been
four years in the Army, and having a perfect knowledge of
their Regimental Duties, may be specially recommended for
such appointments.

An Officer under the rank of Captain is not eligible to hold
the situation of Major of Brigade ; nor must effective,Field
Officers of Regiments be employed as Majors of Brigade, or
as Fort or Town Majors.

Officers for the Stair of the Army are to be selected exclu-
sively from the Regular Forces, and no Regiment or Battalion
shall be required to furnish more than two Captains and two.
Subalterns for Staff situations.

All appointments of Aides-de-Camp, Brigade-Majors, and
other Staff Officers, are to be notified in Orders.
General Officers in command are expected to be extremely
circumspect in their recommendation of Officers for Staff ap-
pointments of any kind ; and are responsible that the Officers,
in whose behalf they interest themselves, are, by their previous
personal services, as well as by their acquirements and cha-
racter, qualified to discharge, with advantage to the Service,
the duties attached to the station for which they are recom-
mended.

Officers in the command of Regiments or. Battalions are re-
sponsible that no Officer is permitted to be absent from his
regimental duty, for the purpose of holding a situation upon
the Staff of the Army, until he shall have, attained a complete
knowledge of his duty as a Regimental Officer.

(those only excepted who are appointed by his Majesty's' spe-
cial authority) shall, on their regiments being ordered do fo-
reign service, relinquish their situations on the Staff, in order
to embark with their regiments.

Officers holding Staff situations in foreign garrisons (those
only excepted who are appointed by his Majesty's special
authority) shall, on their regiments quitting the station, relin-
quish their situations on the Staff, in order to accompany their
regiments.

Officers serving upon the Staff of the Army at home are not
to be removed without the authority of the Commander-in-
Chief. Those serving upon the Staff of foreign stations are not
to be removed without the previous authority of the General
Officers commanding.
London, England, 1822-09-19

MAHRATTAII AND PINDAREE WAR.

The unprovoked aggressions of the Pindarees
unavoidably led to war. The Governor-General
proceeded to organize a league amongst the Na-
tive States ; the object of whose confederation
should be the preservation of the public tran-
quillity, by uniting their efforts to crush the law-
less banditti who were let loo'se upon society.
The results of our warlike operations are well
stated.

Of the policy adopted to secure our conquests
Mr. White does not entertain so favourable an
opinion. In regard to the Itajpoot states, who
had always maintained their independeuce, and
were now connected with the British Govern-
ment, by subsidiary alliances, he makes some
pertinent remarks. In the greater part of the
territory conquered during the campaign, the
Native Princes who had combined against us
(with the exception of the Peishwah and the
agpoor Rajah,) were allowed to retain the civil
government of their dominions, subject to the
controul of the British Government, whosesman-
dates were strengthened by a powerful force sta-
tioned within their dominions. '[his policy was
acted upon to a considerable extent by Lord
Wellesley ; and is generally 6signated as the
subsidiary system of that statesman. Mr. White
considers it to have entirely failed in promoting
our security in India. The character of Lord
Wellesley is contrasted with that of the Marquis
of Hastings.
