EAST-INDIA COLLEGt.

As much clamour has been raised against the
Gentlemen who preside over this Institution, on
account of the expulsions which took place,locon-
sequence of the misconduct of some of the Stu-
dents, it 'is proper to submit the following docu-
ment to the Public. The decision of so amiable
and judicious a character as the venerable Pre-
late must remove all doubts, and put au
,end to
such unmerited obloquy :
" The Bishop of Loi‘noi.r, appointed Visitor of the East
India College by the Statutes thereof, has received the Appeals
of LawnELL, Rowrxv, TAYLOR, and WATTS,
late Students of the said College, complaining of sentences of
•
expulsion therefrom, pronounced against them by the College
Council. He has likewise received the Answers of the College
Council to the said Appeals and Complaints, and also the Re.
plies of the Appellants to the said Answers,
" Having duly weighed and considered these several docu-
cuments, the Visitor finds himself compelled to declare his
convictiont founded in no small degree upon the admissions of
the Appellants themselves, that they have all of them been
parties to a conspiracy, originating in the most erroneous and
unwarrantable notions respecting their own relative situations
in the College, and pursued by a series of gross and contume.-
liqus outrages, committed against the governing members of
the Society, for the express purposes of annoyance and intimi-
dation.
" The Visitor, attending to the general nature of the institu-
tion, and likewise to the particular body of statutes, under the
authority and observance of which it is to be conducted, pro-
nounces his judgment, that the several Appellants have, by a
course of misconduct totally inconsistent with all academical
discipline and subordination, and utterly subversive thereof,
justly incurred the penalty of expulsion ; and he therefore
affirms the sentences pronounced to that effect by the Principal
and Professors.
" Tie directs the College Council to insert a copy of this his
decree in their proper Registry.

EMANUEL SIVEDENBOIIO..—A. curious circum.
stance relative to this once celebrated character, and which ex-
cites unbounded interest amongst his numerous followers, has
come to light within these few weeks past. it appears thati he
departed this life about fifty years ago, and was buried in the
vault of a small church or chapel in the neighbourhood of
Ratcliffe-highway. Sometime after his interment, one of his
disciples came over to England, and—whether prompted by
supernatural inspiration or by his own blind superstition,
does not appear—contrived, by means of bribing the sexton
or grave-digger, to gain admittance to the cemetery where his
body was deposited. Here, in the silent hour of midnight
(having previously supplied himself with the necessary fipple-
nients) he broke open the coffin, and severed the head from the
trunk of the departed saint, with the former of which he safely
decamped to his own country. This relic he preserved with
the greatest care and veneration till the day of his death, when
it was discovered by his survivingrelutives ; and from some writ-
ten documents left behind the fanatic, the whole circumstances
connected with this extraordinary affair were developed. His
friends, alarmed at the consequences that might follow such an un-
hallowedviolation of the tomb, and being desirous ofunettoynviing in
some measure for the sins of hint who had been g
so
great a crime, caused the head to' be forthwith transmitted to
this country, with a request that the coffin inight be re-opened
for the purpose of ascertaining if it was the identical head of
the saint, and if so, that it might be restored to its original
situation—ln compliance with this request, the coml., was
opened, and the above story proved to be perfectly correct, the
trunk only of a skeleton presenting itself to the astonished eyes
of those around. The head has accordingly been re-interred
with due solemnity in the presence of the Elders of-the Church.
The long disputed question relative to the packet service, oh
which the rival interests of Falmouth and Plymouth have beets
so actively employed, is now finally settled in favour of the
former. Thirty sail of 10-gun brigs, to be commanded by
Lieutenants of the RoyaiNavy, are to be placed under the
orders of Captain King, late Inspector of the 1 reventive Service
for the coasts of Kent, who hoists his pendant on board the
Astrea frigate. Sir T. B. Martin, Sir George. Clerk, and this
officer, are at present at Falmouth, making the necessary ar-
rangements for this new service, which promises to be a most
Valuable one for the country at large.
Captain EtuuDErr, of the 10th hussars, eldest
son of gir FRANCiB IitIRDETT, Bart., was. thrown from his
horse, which rolled over him, on Monday morning (the 24th '
into:), between Carrick-on-Slur .and Kilkenny, and suffered a
severe contusion of the shoulder and thigh. Ile is now at the
Hibernian Hotel, in the city of Kilkenny, attended by Dr.
WILLIAM RYAN', and we Wve very great pleasure in being
able to add, will be able to pursue his journey in a day or two.
