A General Court Martial, instituted by order
of the Commander in Chief, for the trial of
Lieutenant-Colonel Phayre, of the Wexford Mi-
litia, upon charge's preferred against him by En-
sign Risdale; now of the Line, aml,late a Lieute-
nant in the Wexford Regiment, commenced sitting
at the Royal Barracks, on Monday, the 3d instant,
and continued by adjournments at the BarrackS of
the Nottingham Militia; in George's-street, till
Wednesday, the sth.. The ' charges made by the
prosecutor against Colonel Phayre, Were three in
number. , The first and second were in substance,
for ‘.‘ calumniating the character of Lieutenant
.Risclale, in a most malicious, unjl 3t, and cruel
manner, and thereby injuring him materially, and
preventing Lord Ely from recommending him for
a Commission in the Line." The third was for
" very reprehensible and improper conduct, and
neglect of duty in, suffering, and. not preventing
several gross and scandalous impositions %Odell
wqe practised on the men, by Captain I,3oyd's
obliging them to buy eleven pounds of beet each
in the week, and when they were
_unable to con-
sume that quantity for dinner, ordering them to
eat it for breakfast, and by the said Capt. Boyd's
setting up a canteen in the barrack for the sale of
spirits, and compelling the men, to buy drink
there, end in no other place, for the purpose of
accumulating profits for the said Captain Boyd,"
all of which took place while the regiment was
quartered at Tipperary, in the - years 1810 .and
1811."

After the usual forms were gone through, the
prosecutor produced some witnesses, whose tes-
timony went .ratter to exonerate Colonel Phayre
from any impropriety of conduct, than to sub-
stantiate the charges
.brought against him.—
Major-General Lce was examined, and in reply to
'aluestion by the prosecutor, stated, that Lieut.-
Colonel Phayi'e had mane reports of his (Lieute-
nant 1.1..'5), improper conduct while on the recruit-
ing service at Ross, and particulArly respecting
hist having passed a Banknote for t*enty pounds,
to two different persons, one half to each, for the
full amount of the Note. He also bore testimony to
the honourable and officer-like conduct of Colonel
Phayre.
Captain Dickson, of the Wexfoiwl Militia, sworn.
This witness was called in support of the third
charge, which was read to him, - He was then de-
sired to state to the Court what he knew respect-.
jog- it. He answered, " I did not know of any
such conduct being practised by Captain Boyd.—
Had I known it, I would first have admonished
him, and if that was not successful, would have
thought it 'necessary, for the honour of the regi-
ment, to report it."
CGolonel Pigot, of the 'Wexford Militia, stated
to the Court, that he had been with the regiment
a few days ago, and had very particularly ques-
tion6d them about the eleven pounds of meat; and.
that they fully acquitted Captain Boyd of the
smallest blame on their account, and said they -had
been for sonic time requesting him to comply with.
their desire for the meat, as milk, &c. were dear,
before he did so,

The prosecutor then ..deemivl, in answer to a
question from the Ccroit, that her mad no evidence
whatever to adduce is support of the third'cliarge,
or of the impositiods stated in it havinN)een Offi-
cially reported to cblonel Phayre, or of the;r having
coon: to his hnowledge in any way. This declara-
tion - was entered on the minutes of the Court
Martial, and it was resolved that the question put
to Captain Dickson, and his answer, should not
be entered, not being material to the question irn
mcdiately before the Court.

The,Margnis of Ely, called and examined by
the prosecutor. -

Q. Was it not inconsequence of representations
to my disadvantage made to you by Lieutenant-
Colonel Phayre that your ,Lordship declined
recommending me to the Line, when. I had the
honour of an interview with • your LordAlip at
'Cashel ?

A. 1 have no recollection of any. evnveriati9n

James O'Brien,.army-accontrement maker from
Cbrk, sworn and examined by ColonelPhayre.---,
Q. State to the Court the. transaction of. which
you informed meat Clomnel. • .
A. When the Wexford regiment was stationed
at Cotik,- the officers were iu the habit of dealing
with me. Lieutenant Risdale took some articles
in credit from me, to the amount of 4/. 14s.
I applied to him, and sent
He
clerk to him re-
peatedly for payment. e put me off from the
24th of one month to .another, and when the re-
giment marched from Cork, .1 wrote many letters
to hith, none of which he ever answered,- e-C.ept
one. As I happenedatO, be going through Clop
Mel, I waited on Colonel Phayre, and informtd
him of the business. He promised to pult the
debt in a train of payment. I called on him some
time after, when he told-me that Lieut. Itisdale
was under arrest ; and when I applied to • hini
third time; he informed me that he was cashiered.
tre'rC tilt witness prochiced the account, which
*as dated upwards of three years ago, and said
it was still due.

A question=" Whether it was, not in censa-
quenc6 Ofitthe prOsecutor's solemn promise to pa3F
for the articles immediately that they 'were given,
and in what manner he treated the witness's mes-
senger ?"—Being thought unnecessary by the
Coiirt, was overruled.
Que-,ticn by the prosecutor=Were not some of
the articles in that alcount for my brother ?

A. They were all given for your .use and. ac-
soant. It is iinrnAterial and unknown. t,o me,
whether you gave any of tlietn,- after they were
delivered by me, to your brother or not.

Captain GLASCIT, TTexfcrd sworn.

Q. Inform the Court, whether you made any
reports; and of what nature, of Lieutenant Ris-
dales's conduct to Lieutenant-ColoUel Phavrc.

, A. I reported personally to Colonel Phayre the
improper conduct of Mr. R. while on the recruit-
ing service at ROss,- in passing one half of a bank
note of 201. to Mr. Cummins, grocer, and in con-
sequence of several .Complaints made by the inha-
bitants of Ross, of Lieutenant It's contracting
debts, for articles for the recruits, and- Which he
left unpaid. I also reported his having withheld'
fiom a recruit named James Deacon, upwards of
eight pounds of 'his bounty, which 1 paid the
nian afterwards, by order of COlonel Vigot. I
received orders to take up the papers from Lieu-
tenant Risdale, and 'succeeded or rather supersed-
ed Win in the recruiting service at Ross. When
he was leaving the town I gave him 6SI. ss. as the*
bounty of .five recruits, among %Worn was the
man mentioned above, and desired him not to
leave any:thing due of him. (Here the witness
prodUced.the receipt for the bounty; it was signed,
by Lieutenant R. and exactly corresponded with
what Captain Glascit'saiJ).
Q. Did you speak to Lieutenant Risdale about .
the 'transaction of the 201. bank note.
A. Yes ; Cummins informed me that he gave
171. in cash, and about 31.. worth of goods to
Lieutenant R. for the half note. That he told
him from, day to day that the corresponding half
was to be remitted to him. I went to Lieutenant
R. and advised him to settle With the man, as if
the transaction was reported to the regiment, it
would be a very unhandsome 'business. Lieut. R.,
answered—" damn the rasdal, Pwould have paid
him long ago, only he made such a fuss aboct
it." (The prosecutor proposed a question or
twO, which were not considered at all ma,
terird.)

' Colonel Pigo,t submitted, to. the Court, that
though it chuld not be taken in evidence, he wish-
ed to state how the circumstances of, the canteen
mentioned in the charges had occurred, as though
the prosecutor himself- declared he had no evidence
tci'stieW that Colonel Pliayre knew nothing.at 'all
of it, yet it left some imputation (as it now stood
on the face of the proceedings) on the character
of Capt. Boyd, and on the internal ceconomy O.f
the regiment, which he wished to clear . (F le
had before, he trusted, satisfied them as to the
meat.) The Commanding Offices of the Regi-
Ment had received regular orders from the Gene-
ral of the District, to take every means in his•
poWer to have the men associate as little as possi-
ble with the country people, as the county of Tip-
perary was at that time much disturbed, and Cap:-
tain Boyd conceived it" would be much better to
have the men drink in the canteen under his own
eye,.than to have them go to public Douses. The'
Colonel stated, that the canteen coax not kept by
Captain Boyd, nor had he any more concern than
any other Officer in the profits of it, except that
.the person who kept it owed him an old debt, and
promised to pay ten shillings weekly in liquida-
tion of it, out of the eruolumentg woula
aeortre from the canteen.

L 0 N DON,

TnURSDAY, AUGUST 13, 1812.

The Prince of Wales packet has arrived at Har-
wich from-Heligoland. The intelligence brought
by this vessel from the French and Russian armies
is not of a recent date. A report, indeed,
shad
reached Heligoland, that a battle had been fought
between thg Russians and the.Freneh, *liich
the former had' lost 60,000 men and the latter
30,000 ! No dates or other' particulars are men-
tioned, we are not, therEfor6, inclined to pay any
attention to this rumour. We are glad to learn
that the Swetlish Expedition is ready, and is ex-
pected to sail on the 15th inst.

Government, we understand, 'have -received ac-
counts from Sweden, which state, that the Treaty
of Peace between Russia and the Porte has been
ratified: We shall rejoice, most sincerely, to have
it in our power to confirm this gratifying, piece of
intelligence.

This morning a Mail from Gottenburgh arrived.
The following.are the priocipal articles it brings :
GorrgssuaGH, At;G. 4.—Peace between Eng-
land
and Sweden- is to be proclaimed throughout
all Sweden on,Sunday next, and the ports will be
declared, open on the 15th inst.
A body of Cossacks have complete!..y cut to
pieces a Polish regiment.

The Fiench have lost an. immense number of_
_ . . • , - ...• - - • •
bOrSCs f..:om the badness of the weather, and great
scarcity of food ; they have experienced the most
- , • .
incessant rains that were ever remembered.

A number of English bonah-vessels and other
ships of war, have passed by for the Baltic.

ELSINEUR, JULY 24,--On the 17th and 18th
inst. we had fine summer' weather, but since
then the weather has been very variable, with
rtin, wind, cold, and thunder. We have
not for several years had such heavy thun-
der, and such a fall of rain as yesterday. The
lightning struck down in several places ; four
trees 'were split in Dahisborg Garden ; and a wa-
ter-spout destroyed a small house in Borup field.
The Dog-days have commenced with more cold
than warmth. It was so cold yesterday, that we
should have thought it was four months back.
The price of corn still continues enormously
high ; a loaf of rye bread which weighs 71:, lb.
coati 2 rix-dollars (Ss. sterling at par )

Letters have been rece;ved from Admiral MAR-
TI:7, at Riga, whickstate, that notwithstanding

all the efforts of the French made to cut off Prince

BAG-RATION, he had effected his junction with the
).7.lain army. They also state, ire understand, that
DAVOUST, in an attack upon BAGRATION'S 'Corps,
Efti nine ba.ttaliOns nearly cut to pieces, and lost
prinone:s: one thousand men, and fifty Officer.
An opinion seemed to be entertained, that the
Russians would wait the attack of the. French at
Witepsk. Bo.th armies are now. concentrated, and
amount to about,2oo,o6o.each.

Although we .are. still uhable to ley before our
IT:teicrs any official:detailS respecting the battle

near Salamanca, we have it in our power to state
some additional, circumstances which tend to rer.
move every doubt that might exist rez:pe: tug the
fact of the Victory. Dispatches—were yesterday
received from Sir HumE Porn An., dated the 4th
These dispatches do not coßtain any

instant.

additip.nal particulate fe.spectiug the battle of the

22i1; but they.- speak of it as an event perfe.ctly
.welt known, and enumerate some of the important
advantages that must result from the vlctory. But
what, in our opinion, is a decisive proof that the
French have been completely defeated, is that they
have evacuated St. Andero—a place-, the posses-
sion of which was of very great importance to
them, and where they had a force of 4000 men.
They evacuate it on the .3d inst. and took the
road _to Santona, in, the direction of Vittoria.
The wiluntary,abandonment of this town, after
they had successfully resisted every, attempt to
drive them -out of .it, affords, in our opinion, a
decisive proof that the French must have sus-
tained some serious disaster.

The Licenses granted for the protection of ships
ly.:longing to the United States of America, which
revived their clearing out before the 15th of this
month, till he e:Aended to the Ist of September
zest and if it shall happen that good; no't oa

hand shall-ntot then btu ready to be shipped, ,on a
statement of such fact, by the nierchailt or mann-
filthfru, the said Licenses will be further extended
to the 15th of September.—Tbe above indulgence
is in both cases to be limited td ships which are
now protected by Licenses. •

Just:before thiS Paper was put to press we re-
ceived the following gratifying • intelligence,
brought by another Goitenburgli MAI :-

just arrived.

of the PRINCE. REGENT'S birth day.
Yesterday the Princess' CHARLOTTE of WALES

On Monday the Earl and Countess COWPER left
town for Cheltenham.

Earl GROSVENOR was yesterday expected at his
seat at Eaton 1-1411, Cheshire, from London.

THE EARL OF YARMOUTH'S BALL AND SUPPER.

This Fashionable Fete was given on Tuesday
night ; it.was attended with all the eclat usual at
such entertainments'. In the entrance-ball-a mi-
litary bind of Music was stationed in the early
part of the evening; but when the dancing com-
menced,• it was removed. into the temporary gal-
levy •we before mentioned.. The dining parlour
was appropriateel for country-dances, and the
draWing,rooms for waltzes. and French figure
movements. The house was more brilliantly than
tastefully illuminated: there were an abundance'
of patent larnpS, burning oil, which exhaled a
feetid smell. .The bow or circular room at the
south-western angle of the house, was very pret-
tily fitted up as a Turkish tent, with stripes of
blue and white muslin, lehninating as a cone next
the cieling ; and the windows being remoied, it
had all the appearance of the eastern style of de-
coration. A temporary gallery was erected at the
extremity of the garden, and formed an extensive
building, communicating witty Lord YARMOUTH'S
and Mr. WARD'S houses by a fanciful kind of stair-
-ease. The interior of this promenade was illu-
minated by variegated lamps, finishing with a view
of the Prince's feathers, G. N. It. tie British
star, radiant arches, and festoons. The dancing
commenced at eleven o'clock, when: about twenty
couple went down. Waltzing commenced about
one o'clock. The heat became oppressive about
two o'clock, when all who were not otherwise
occupied, flew to the cool retreat of the temporary
room ; it having no other canopy than a
thin coating of oil-cloth. Although from nine
till three o'clock, at least a dozen persons were
constantly occupied in giving out refreshments
of fruit, cakes, ices, lemonade, &c. yet . the
impatience of the visitants became ungovern-
able, . long before the time prescribed for.
the arrangement of the regular banquet ; and
it is a fact, that the -Dukes of CLxRENC
and CAMBRIDGEsupped at a table, having
ern it neither cloth nor napkin. There was a pro-
fusion of gold and silver plate used ; and the Por-
celain china met the" eye in every shape, and iti
every corner., The supper was excellent.
.Among the couples were—
Duke of Devot:ishire • Lidy Charlotte Cholrhotidelev.
Lord Palmerstone Countess
Lord Charles Bentineli Ltdy Ann 'Twee.
•1 Lord A. Hill Lady Charlotte Scott.
Colonel Uptoa Ludy M. Batlitlr6t. • '
.Cap;ain ritzolarence Miss .'Montague. .

Ile spirit of the scene did not dissipate until
six
,o'clock ; at seven there was a breakiast, but
ere the first peal of bells (eight. o'clock) anL
;Jounced the PitlNCi; REGENT'iii festival hiving
begun, the convany had wholly departed. there
were present several foreigners of illustrious dis-
tinction, and /among then the Sicilian Prince
PETRULLA, accompanied by Count ST. ANTONIO.

East India House, when Captain Jona' Ilisttnn-

nished transports for the ex edition,. were to have

certain oay. The expedition, it wat supposed,
would tail about the middle of August;, but there
was a difference of opinion as to its.destinatiOn.
The following passage is extracted froM the
Gazette de France:--" In our last publication we-
accused Lord YARVUTII of having violated his
parole of honour. In that we have been guilty
of a gross error. Lord Y.ARMOUTFi, after,having
quitted France upon his parole, and returned with
Lord L.kuneanii,e, whom we have seen in Paris,
obtained his release in order to return L:!adon.
We hasten to repair an in7oluntary inury, and to
