A Morning Paper states, that Mr. PLUNKETT
had been sworn into Office as Attorney-General.
Whatever arrangements may be in contemplation,
as yet Mr. SAURIN holds the Office. It is said
that Mr. BusfiE, the present Solicitor=General, is
to be appointed Chief Justice of the King's
Bench, whenever a vacancy shall occur, which is
likely to happen very shortly.—(Dublin Corres-
pondent.)
On Saturday a Court of Directors was held at
the East India House, when Lieutenant-General
the Honourable Sir EnwAaD PAGET, G.C. B. was
appointed provisionally Commander i❑ Chief of
all the Company's forces in India, and Second
Member of Council in Bengal on the death,
resignation, or coming away of General the Mar-
quis of IlasTINGs. We stated from authority a
few days since, that the noble Marquis was in-
stantly about to return to England.
When his Royal highness the Duke of GLOU-
CESTER visited the Dock-yard at Chatham, a few
days since, he was shewn CROMWELL'S standard,
supposed to be the only, one remaining in the
kingdom. Its ancient simplicity,• and good pre-
servation, excited the attention of his Royal High-
ness,. When. his late MAJESTY visited the Yard
in 1781, it was shewn to him, and he expressed
a desire that particular care might be taken of it.
The flag is red, 21 feet by 15, having on it St.
George's cross (red) on a white field, and the
Irish ha-p (yellow) on a blue field, the shield
surrounded by branches of the palm and laurel,
