returned two shaings and sixpence. Mr. Scales
discovered one of the shillings to be bad, and ob- -
served that he did not give. her that ; she acknow-

being an utterer of base money, and said she had
more about her ; ,and, on SearchinOier, she had
three more of the same make.in her hand, and a

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM AN 'OFFICER SERVING!
WITH TIIE ARMY IN SOUTH BEVELAND, AUG. 29.

" _Should the people of England be disappointed.
that • more has not been done, the army will regret
it; but I shall always be of opinion that Lopd Chat-
ham has judged wisely in not hazarding the sacrifice
of British blood, because he had a large force at cony-
mand. His situation has been tantalizing. But it
appears to me that he has exercised the best judg,
',bent in the prospect of military fame
(merely that in -all probability would have- beep the
result of an anion) to the more solid advantage of
preserving the fine army placed at his disposal. The
cliarlier of a British army does not remain to be es-
tablished, Alexandria, Maida, and Talavera,_have
iiinnortalized it. Let the diaates of sound reason=
ing, therefore, not allow us to regret that an enter-
prize has not beep persevered in, that offered so dis-
couraging a 'result. I believe this to be ti,, opinion
of the army."
