four hundred smith of Malta, deposited by the prisoner in the
Malta Treasury on account of the said Government of the

His MAJESTY was pleased to confirm the finding of Guilty

ings of the Court., his MAJESTY was pleased to command that
the Court should be re-assembled for the purpose of revising
the sentence adjudged by it.
On the 21st of October, 1822, the Court re-assembled in obe-
dience to his MAJESTY'S command, communicated to Lieu-
tenant General the Right Hon. Sir T. AIAITLAND, Commander
of the Forces in the Mediterranean, in a letter from his Royal

and having revised the sentence already passed on the prisoner,
came to the following decision :—" he Court having found
him Guilty of a misdemeanor, does now sentence him the said
Charles kauquier, to suffer the punishment of imprisonment
for the term of two years, and to pay a fine of 5,000 Spanish
dollars, and further to be imprisoned till the said tine is paid."
His MaJtsr Y has been pleased to confirm the Sentence of
the Court as revised ; but under all the circumstances of this
case, again brought under his MAJESTY'S notice, together
with the provisions of the Act 50' Geo. 111. cap. 59, relating to
the Collectors of Public Money convicted of embezzling the
sante, and by which persons so convicted are rendered inca-
pable of serving the Crown, his MAJEST v has been further
pleased to extend his gracious clemency to the Prisoner, by re-
mitting so much of the Sentence of the Court as adjudges him,
Mr. PAU QU tElt, to two years' imprisonment.

was pleased, to compna,nd, that the proceeding
should be revised by the Court, tor the following reasons,
That the Finding and Sentenct of the Court in this Case ap-
pear to be inconsistent and irrecolkilable with each other.
That the Court having found the prisoner guilty of*the first
charge and not guilty of the second, it was not competent to
them to adjudge the sentence which they have done, that is,
Dimissal trom his species of

2,000!." inasmuch as that species of sentence is confined by the
128th Clause of the Mutiny Act to the cases of Individuals
Guilty of Embezzlement; whereas in the present case the.
prisoner upon the 211 Charge, which is a Charge of Embezzle-
ment, is distinctly found to be Not Guilty.
The Court having maturely deliberated nxin and fully re-
considered and revised the whole of the evidence which has
appeared upon its minutes, together with what ths prisoner
has urged in his vindication and defence„ ix of opinion that he
the prisoner, Charles Blackader, Esq. Deputy Assistant C,oni-
missary General, is Guilty of the Whole of the charges ex-
hibited against him, and does accordingly sentence and ad--
judge him (the aforesaid Charles Blockader) to be dismissed

BRIMSTONE HILL, ST. CHRISTOPHER'S.
Brevet Major ArnittEw NVELDr. it, Captain in the 35th
Regiment of k'oot, was charged with riotous and disorderly con-
duct in the Mess -room, and with subsequently ungentlemanly
conduct towards sonic of' the Officers, in challenging any of
them "to turn out." Sentence—ire be discharged his Majesty's
service. In consideration of his former services and good
conduct, he was, however, recommended to his Majesty's
clemency, and his Majesty accordingly ordered him to receive
the regulated value of his regimental commission.—Lieutenant
DawsoN, ter the evasive manner in which he gave his evidence
on this trial, was ordered to be removed to the half.pay of his
rank; and Brevet-Major EDGEWORTH, for making an un-
founded report of the unfortunate origin of the business, to be
removed from the Service, receiving the regulated value of his
regimental commission.

Yesterday, the 2d regiment of Life Guards had a grand fieh%
day at Wormwood Scrubs. The ground, containing several
acres, has been cleared of all 'its brushwotxl, and rendered a
delightful plain. Their Noble Commander, the Earl of Cath-
cart, attended in person, and gave the connnand, and put the
regiment through many evolutions, which they performed in a
most military and masterly style, to the enure satisfaction of
their Noble Colonel.
The second division of the 10th regiment of Foot has been
ordered to embark at Sheerness, for Ireland.
We understand there is no truth whatever, in the rumour
now in circulation, of Government having it in contemplation:
to remove the. Cavalry Dept, from this place to Canterbury.--
