- On Saturday morning, at ten o'clock, the sen-
tence upon Lieut. DELAP, late of the Jara frigate,
was carried into execution. at Portsmouth. All
the Officers. and men at quarters having been
ordered under arms, Lieut. DLILAP was brought
from his. room, in custody of the Officer on guard,
and placed in the centre of a hollow square, which
the troops had formed. The sentence was then
read by. the Judge Advocate (Lieutenant and Ad-
jutant PATTEN), and the Drum-Major cut the
epaulet from oft his shoulder, and his sash
from around hts body. General' WINTER (the
President) then addressed the corps in• an
impressive manner, and pointing out the evils
of insubordination, adverted to the case they
had just witnessed, as a proof that no rank
was above the reach of the law. He informed
Mr. DELAP., that it was his 'good conduct in the
action between the Java and Constitution that
had alone averted an additionally disgraceful. eir-
cumstance that would have been included in the
sentence,—that of having his sword broke over
his head. Mr. DELAP was then led out of the
barracks.

lag as a Gentleman belonging to the Bank of
England, ivlio resides in Kennington, and Whip
hail been dining out, was on his return home
about two o'clock; going along Whitt Hart-Court,
Walworth, he got into conversatn with a girl of
the town, in romping with whom they came
against the window.of a person residing there,
%rho imagining they ‘v re in the act of breaking
into his dwelling, got up and quietly went out of
the house, accompanied by a young nian ; the
Gentleman observing them, instantly made-ofi,on
which he WaS rilltletited to stop, or he would be a
dead man, which warning not regarding, the
person fired at him, and, melancholy to relate,
shot hint in the body. The watchman on the re-
port blunderbuss, mune up, and took charge
of the unfortunate person. He was then carried
to Dr. DIXON'S, when, on examination of the
wounds, it was ,discovered that-two balls had et.l
tered his body, • neither of which are extracted.
They being lodged in the kidneys, no hopes what-
ever of his recovery are entertained.
On Friday last,- a young woman, servant to Mr.
. Whitehead, of Hanley, -in the Potteries, took
ttte fatal resolution of putting an end to her exist-
ence, which she effected by taking a qtianti•y of
poison : it appears sh 4 had previously manifesteo
