LINfEW TIMES.]
regretlZ e to rearn that the latest accounts.from.
Rangoon do not confirm the hopes entertained by
Sir Archibald Camphell,subsequently to the battle
of the 15th of December, of a disposition on the
part of the Burmese to sue for peace. The let-
ters which had been received at Calcutta from
Rangoon to tile 25th of December state, that no
overture of the sort :had been made, nor was
there -any appearance that such would be made.
It is rather remarkable that disease should have
so greatly affected our troops in this quarter 4
for. Rangoon had always the reputation of being
a very healthy spot. But in fact all tropical
countries are unhealthy immediately after the pe-
riodical rains, which are generally succeeded by
strong exhalations loaded with putrid miasmata.
As the season advanced, however, the troops were
becoming more healthy. The enemy had entirely
withdrawn from the Sylhet frontier, and evacu-
ated Carhar and Assam, so that hostilities were
confined solely to the Pegu side. It is asserted
that the proceedings of the Court of Enquiry on
the Barrackpore mutiny are in town ; but we
know that copies have not yet reached any
of the official authorities, and from the vague
statements which have transpired, we are dis-
posed to doubt whether the 'details have yet
reached this country'in any authentic shape. The
loss of lives on that unfortunate occasion was
doubtless lamentably great; but we believe it to be
much exal._-fgerated., when it is statiA at six hun-
dred killed and wounded : probably two hundred
would be nearer- the truth. it must, however,
remain alWays involved in considerable obscurity;
far the greater number that perished were men
who. had' thrown themselves into the water in
their attempt to escape ; and the more fortunate
fugitiVes. when they had once thrown off :their
military dress and mixed with their countrymen,
could not easily be distinguished.

Mr. Ford, for whom they said they acted. The nutmegs were
afterwards sold, and a loss sustained, to recover which the pre-
sent action was brought.
For the defendants it was contended that they were rct
liable; but that the action should have been • brought,agpinsr

NATIONAL SCHOOLS.

Yesterday the Annual Exatninat;on of the
Children educated in the City of London National Schools,
took place at the Central School Room', in Baldwin's-gardens,
before the Archbishops of Canterbury and York, the Bishops
of Litchfield and Coventry, Exeter, Gloucester, and Down and
Connor ; Lord Kenyon, and several of the Nobility and Gentry.
—The Boys were first examined as to their proficiency in ortho-
graphy, reading, writing, and arithmetic; after which they
were examined by the Archbishop as to the knowledge of what
they had read ; and their ready manner of answering the ques-
tions appeared to give general satisfaction to the Ladies anti
Gentlemen present. The Girls were next introduiced, and
after undergoing a similar examination, which afforded equal
pleasure, exhibited specimens of their progress in nee-
dle-work, which were attentively examined by the La-
dies, who rewarded them with suitable presents. The
whole of the Children were then introduced, and pa-
raded round the room. Their clean and healthy ap-
pearance were the theme of universal admiration. The Arch-
bishop of CANTERBURY then addressed the Meeting, con-
gratulating them on the appearance of the children, and re-
questing they would continue to support such an invaluable
Institution. The children then sung a hymn, composed•for
the occasion ; after which the company separated, apparently
much gratified with the proceedings of the day,

LITERARY NOTICE.

CA L EDONI A.—M r. CHALMERS, we understand,
has nearly arrived at the conclusion of his great
work on the History of Scotland. The work,
when completed, we find, will consist of four
volumes in quarto. The three which have
ilready been published, contain the most valua-
ble information respecting the ancient state of
that country, and -thelast will probably leave
nothing for future historians to record but the
events of the pwssing times. The indefatigable-
zeal of Mr. CIIILMERS is well known, and the
resources which his extensive library furnishes,
afford him opportemities:that• no other *titer pos-
sesses. He will therefore Taisce a monument to
his own fame on the work intended to do honour
to his native country.

HORRID MURDER.

BATII, Tuesday, May 24.—This city has just
been thrown into the utmost confusion by the
discovery of a savage and almost unparalleled
murder. Early this morning, as a young man
was walking along the bank of the river Avon,
nearly opposite the Paradei, he saw something
tied up in a sack lying in the water. Curiosity,
led him to inquire further, and with some assist-
ance the sack was drawn out, when, horrible to
relate, the body of a man, shockingly mutilated,
and in a state of complete nudity, was disco-
.vertl ! A large stone had been placed at the
bottom of the sack in order to sink it, and the
body was thrust in head foremost. There was a
ghastly wound in the left breast, and " twenty
mortal gashes ", about his head. Soon after the
discovery the corpse was removed to a neighbour-
ing public house, where an Inquest was held.--
Several persons came forward to endeavour to
identify the body, but in conseque►►ce of its ex-
treme putrid state (having, it is supposed, been
ten days it► the water), all such attempts were
unavailing. The Jury ultimately returned a.
verdict of Wilful Murder against some per Son or
persons unknown ; and the perpetrators of this
dark deed must therefore remain unknown, 11-

less the finger of Providence, by some remark-
able interposition, points them out to the detes-
tation of their fellow men.—Two persons have.
been missing► for some time—one of them a
drover, supposed to have had 2001. about him at
the time of his disappearance ; but, for the rea-
son stated above, all identification is impossible.
The body, however, has been placed in a public
situation, in order to give persons an opportunity
of endeavouring to recognize it.

Extract of a Letter dated Rio de Janeiro, March 28.

The sentence of death passed by the Supreme
Court of this place upon three individuals concerned in the re-
volution in Pernambuco, and which sentence was, executed on
the 17th instant, has caused a considerable sensation, especially
among the European Portuguese, as the first ofthese individuals
(John William Ratcliff) was born in Portugal• of. English.
parents ; the second (John Metrowich) was "a Maltese by birth ;
and the.third (Joquin da Silva Loureiro) was a European For-

tuguese.
These individuals were undoubtedly foreigners. They never
had sworn allegiance to the Emperor or come under his Go-i
verntnent. They arrived at rernambuco at a time when
that province was in a state of revolution. Their lawful Sove-
reigns had not recognized the Emperor.or his Government,
and therefore their joining the revolutionists could not be con-
strued into high treason, for which crime they were con-
demned. But it is said that their fate was sealed long before
the passing of their sentence, as the Judges are believed to
have received an intimation from a certain high personage, that
he expected they would pass sentence of death on these indivi-
duals. The motive assigned for such a proceeding is said to be,
that John William Rateliff (who-was possessed of very great,
abilities) was the individual who made out the decree of the
Cortes of Lisbon for the-banishment of the Queen of Portugal,
and for whose head she privately offered a considerable reward.
On the 22d inst., the French ship Le Ternaux arrived here
from Peru in 56 days, with Lieut.-General Canterac, 15 officers
of different ranks, fl friars; 2 canons, I judge, 2 merchants, and
5 women passengers, bound for Europe.
To-day 1,000 troops, of which one battalion are foreigners,
have been embarked for Pernambuco, to relieve an equal num-
ber of those in that place. It is said that these last are to rein.
force the garrison of Montevideo, ts this . Government, in con-
sequence of the war being finished in Peru, are fearful that the
Independents will direct their attention to the re-conquest of the
province Cisplatina.

LONDON SESSIONS.

Yesterday the adjourned Sessions were held at Guildhall:
A woman named Harris, the wife of a prisoner confined in
the Fleet-prison, was charged with having violently assaulted a
person named Rogers, in the lodge of the prison.
Upon the part of the prosecution it was proved that Mr. lin-
gers went to the. Fleet prison. to make a demand upon Harris,
and was told he was in the lodge, into which he (Rogers)
walked, with out.having the most distant idea of quarrelling. He
was not, however, long in. the lodge, when Mrs. Harris, who
had a pint of porter -in her hand, entered, and without ceremony
threw the porter in Rogers's face, apd struck him several times.
The prosecutor did not attempt to retaliate, although his anta-
gonist, was a complete Amazon in appearance, and struck as
lard as some women will strike in defence or in support of their
husbands. The example was one which was calculated to ex-
cite a dangereus spiritg insubordination in a prison like the
Fleet, in which, are assembled so many unruly persons. Four
witnesses confirmed this statement.

For the Prisoner, it was stated by the turnkey, that when he
(the witness) entered the lodge, he saw the prosecutor in the at-
titude of fighting, as well as other persons; that the row ceased.
upon ,his telling the parties that they must retire from that.
place, . and that the defendant seemed to have suffered very
much, her handkerchief being tern from her neck, her gown
being also torn, and several bruises having made their appear-
ance upon her person.
The REcottnEts asked_ the turnkey some questions, from
which' it was evident his Lordship supposed the man bad sworn
that he saw the prosecutor in the act of fighting; and not merely
in the attitude.

BREACIE OF PRIVILEGE•

Robert Peer French l'ilkingtoni voted on Fri. I
last to be goilty of a high breach of the pri-
..vileges of the Rouse, for ".having presumed to
eounterfeit• a petition, purporting to be the pe-
tition of .the Protestant parishioners of the town
of Ballinasloe and the united parishes of Kit-
. clooney and Creagh, and having affixed the names
of certain persons to such counterfeited petition,
-and having transmitted the same to a Member of
the House," has been taken into custody by-Mr. '
Gifford, one of the Messengers of the House,
oo the Speaker's Warrant, which directed the
Messem,er to follow the said Robert Poer
:French Pilkington wherever he might be. The
. offender was in the Gallery when the Report on
the petition was presented to the -House, and
when his conduct was voted a breach of privilege;
but. by the time that the Warrant was prepared
he was not to be found any where about the
Arouse. lie was known to some of the officers
attendant upon the House, because he had been
exlrnined before the Cotnmittee on the peti-
tion, and there confessed himself to be its sole
contriver and planner. The Messenger, -Mr.
Gifford, ascertained that he had put up at
. the Swan with two Necks, Lad-lane ; and on
• Saturday, he proceeded thithei-, but such person,
by name, could not he heard of. Further in-
quiries were made, and led to the supposition
thlt a person remaining there under the name of
" Harrison" and who had ordered dinner to be
ready at five o'clock, might he the aforemen-
tioned Robert Pot r , French Pilkington. The
messenger waited, anti when the said " Mr.
-Harrison " entered, Mr. Gifford found that, sure
enough, he was the man sought for. There he
was quite pat. Rober Poer French Pilkington
vv as approached, and informed of the warrant;
,01.t1 he was in the evening conveyed to the prison,
rooms over Mr. Bellamy's, House of Commons.
Coffee-house, and where Mr. Gourlay remained
- till the close of last Session. Tie now remains
tto•re, to be breught to the bar this evening, ln,!
the custody of the Serjeant at Arms, in order.
that he may state if lie have any reasons to as-
sign why he should not forthwith be sent to his
Majesty's Gaol of Newgate, for the breach of
privilege in forging a petition with names, and
sending the same to a Member (Sir J. Newport),
who presented it to the House, introducing it
with a speech on the .17th of March.. The of-
fender appears to be about '25
years of age, and
he is represented to have said, that he forged the
petition " out of a frolic."—(Mormng Paper.)

wife of CHAttLts WOOLCOMB, a tabourer in the
London Docks, eras delivered of twins, a boy
and girl. A. few days ago it was discovered that
both the children have two tongues; they have
been inspected by the Physicians of the London
Hospital and several Gentlemen of the Faculty,
who all say they never witnessed the like in the
.whole course of their practice. The mother and

[BRITISH Pit ESS.]

The French Papers of Monday arrived last
night. The rumour of a projected treaty with
St. Domingo continues to gain ground. There
is intelligence in them from Spain on the au-
thority of private letters. According to these,
the spirit of intrigue runs high £etwixt the
parties who contest the palm of authority in
the State—in other words, betwixt the ins and
the outs. Each party endeavours to contravene
the movements of the other, whilst the Sovereign
Power, like a beleagured fortress watched by two
bodies hostile to each other, but bent upon ob-
taining possession of the same object—the Royal
favour and patronage—is absolutely kept, as it
were, in check, and reduced almost to a nullity.
Amongst other resources. is that of haranguing
the Military, to which even the Ministers of
State resort. The Apostolic Junta is said to have
gained over a large proportion of the Royal Guard,
and some of the Infantry of the Line. In the mean-
while, it is agreed on all hands that the finances
are in a lamentable state of dilapidation, and that
two new efforts are in progress for raising a loan.
On the side of France it is stated that camps of ob-
servation are to be established at Bayonne and Per-
pignan. Thus, although the actual soil of Spain
will not be trodden by a foreign force, the ter-
ritory will be virtually in the hands of the French
—as much so as is a town upon whose heights is
planted an enemy's battery, the guns pointed
upon the inhabitants. Under the head of .news
from Cadiz, there is a statement that his Majesty's
frigate Active, upon offering to enter the port,
was required by a French brig of war to perform
quarantine. This requisition was resisted on the
part of the commander of the Active, who de-
clared, that in entering a Spanish port he could
listen only to Spanish authorities. Upon this plea
the Active persisted in entering the port.

TILE REV. A. FLETCHER'S NEW CHAPEL.

Yesterday being the day appointed for laying
the foundation stone of a new Chapel for the Rev. A LExA N DER
FLETCHE R, a vast concourse of extremely well-dressed and
respectable persons, of both sexes, about three o'clock began
to assemble at the Albion Hall, Finsbury, from whence they
went in procession, and arrived on the ground about four

Mr. FLETCHER, after getting on a chair, commenced by
congratulating the meeting on the number of respectable per-
sons assembled before him. He then stated that the Chapel in
Miles's-lane being insufficient, they were from necessity com-
pelled to look for a place capable of affording them more acorn-
modation. He said, that after expending more than 9,0001.
upon the Albion Chapel they were afterwards walked into Chan-
cery. (The Rev. Gentleman here entered into an explanation,
or rather an exculpation of his character, and said, that after
being brought into that Court, they were obliged to submit.)
The Itev. GentlAnan then took a review of the Scottish Seces-
sion Synod, against which he delivered a phillipic ; and after
paying a high eulogium to London, as the great capital of the
civilized world, giving or rather extending col.;uerce and free-
dom, but more particularly charity, which he denominated the
essence of Divinity, the Reverend Gentleman concluded by
breathing a love of charity fOr all denominations of Christians.
.The Rev. Mr. Smith, of Penzance, the Rev. Mr. Irons, and
the Rev. Mr. Williams, of Gate-street, addressed the meeting,
and afterwards Mr. Fletcher again presented himself, and at
the conclusion of a second address, read from the 'plate which
accompanied the stone the following inscription :
" This stone was laid 13th July, 1825, by the Rev. Alexan-
der Fletcher, for the accommodation of his loving and steadfast
Congregation, who were deprived of Albion Chapel, Moorgate,
by the tyranny, injustice, and oppression of•the Scottish Seces-
sion Synod. The Lord of Hosts is with us, the God of Jacob
is our refuge.' " WM. BROOKS, Architec.
" JOHN TURNER, Builder."

Intsu CATHOLICS.—At a Meeting of the Ca-
tholics of St. Audeon's parish, Dublin, on Satur-
day last, some oppoiition was made to a vote of
thanks to Mr. O'CoNNELL, on account of his
"advocacy of the wings." Mr. O'CoNsEr.t.,
in returning thanks, stated that he never
would have .approved of the Bill for pen-
sioning the -Clergy, if it had not received
the sanction of twG of the most venerable and
pious of the Roman Catholic Prelates. lie
also declared that, he • would never again bring
forward or support such a measure, as he now
',fell convinced its effect would be to retard, rather
than advance, the Catholic Cause. This decla-
ration was received with much applause ; and the
Meeting, -having returned thanks to the Chair-
man, separated.
