INDIA.

( From the John Bull.)
The military services of our troops in India
are almost universally underrated, the distance at which we
are placed from the scene of action, the want of immediate in-
terest in their results, and the want of proper means of estimat-
ing
the advantages of those result's, combi tottlo, asst were,
injustice to the gallantry and heroism of ou Ne coontrymen
who are fighting for the East India Codspancay, in a schorching
tif4
and occasionally pestilential climate. Perhaps the most splen-
did of all the great DuKE's triumphs was at ABSAYE, but
seldom is the name of that ever memorable battle placed on the'
same footing as the least important victory obtained by the in-
vincible hero on the European Continent. %%Ye refer our readers
to dispatches from Brigadier-General Sir A. Campbell, for
the details of most distinguished gallantry on the part of
his Majesty's.. forces and the Sepoys belonging to the
Noitourable
•Rast India Company in the attacks upon
the Burmese--the 13th Regiment of Foot appears to have done
Wonders ; we find that Major Sale, of that regiment, who
led the storming party, was actually himself the first man
who, sword in hand, mounted the works :—the Navy ap-
' pears equally to merit the approbation of the country, and
'the native troops employed seem ably to have seconded the ex-
ertions of the regulars with whom they were combined. To
canvass the policy or 'humanity' of such conquests is not our
present intention, nor shall we touch Akron the delicate question
of renewing a tradingi company's privilege to assume a power
'land dominion over millions of human beings, to subjugate
' thousands of free and happy people, and carry fire and
sword into the houses and temples of the natives of India -
until we are provoked to it by the bleating: of such injudicious
quacks as the author 'of the tract' which we have "noticed
to-day in another part of this paper, which, may perhaps
irritate us into making a comparison between the tyranny
of the West India planter who cultivates sugar by the
1 labour of slaves, his own property, in whom he has a vital inte-
rest, and upon whom he bestows the greatest care and atten-
tion ; and the humanity of that illustrious corporation of tea-1
[ dealers And cotton-pickers S who are authorized by charter to
butcher thousands of peaceable Indians, whenever they presume
i to breathe a wish for freedOM,, or appear likely to interfere
with the gigantic Monopoly which the lionoarable Campany
at present enjoy.—The consideration of such a subject as this,
would occupy much more time and space than it is worth while '
at present to bestow upon it ; but, whether the policy pursued!
by this Imperium in Iniperio, be good or just,. most certain it
is, that the greatest praise is due to those brave fellows who. so I
nobly fulfil the designs of their rulers, and who in India, as.l
part
well a* in every other of the globe, maintain the honour, of
the British nation, and the glory of the British name.- . 1

LA BEAWIE ON INDIGESTION, TORPID AND

OBSTRUCTED LIVER, ASTHMA, &c.

•
R. LA' -BEANIE, Medical Surgeon, Dec-
-1 vit trician, &c. announces to the Public that he
has for the last seven years made an extensive use of Galvanism
in disorders of the Stomach, Liver and Bowels, Asthma, (7tita.
neous, Glandular and Scrophulous Complaint.s, affections of the
Head, Deafness, Blindness, Lameness, with the most bene-
ficial results. Even in very aggravated cases in which repeated
courses of Mercury, the Blue Pill, Chlorine, Sulphur, Actd, and
others, baths had entirely failed, Galvanism has fully suc-
ceeded. That the judicious application of this Agent is a safe,
mild, and effectual substitute for mercury, .in many chronic
disorders, is now an established fact of gnat importance to So-
ciety, and numerous Persons of the first respectability who had.
for years suffered from those diseases, And have obtained per
feet recovery, can be referred to, who will cheerfully bear testi-
mony to the success of this Remedy, which is administered by'
Mr. La Beanie without producing any painful feeling whatever.
As some medical men are unacquaintsl with Mr. La Beaume's
peculiar treatment, and therefore incompetent to give an opinion
on the subject, and as others object to those means not used in
common practice, a direct application should be made to him,
for information or advice, as he from hislong experience of the
curative powers of his own remedies must be most capable ofjudging of their effi:acy in any case of disease, at bis house,

MADRAS COURIER EXTRAORDINARY, JULY
.23.

" We have just learned that the anticipated attack has beeii
made in force and with full effect upon the enemy. He had
erected several stockades, it seems, which were taken without
much resistance ; but the principal one, supposed to contain a
force equal to our own in the field that day, or 4,000 men, was
not attempted, .as night approached ; but was deferred until
1 the following day. The whole stockade was in consequence sur-
rounded by our trotwo,tyho began a cannonade upon it 'about
3 "a. m. which was kept up until daylight, when it was discovered
that the stockade had been evacuated, and is now in our pos-
vssion. Two Chiefs visited our camp with a flag of truce the
day before the attack, and one was reported to have been for-
merly the Governor of Basseen. They had an interview with
Captain Canning, but the result is certainly, in spite of all that
has been said about it, unknown. The Envied and Anna,
Robetson, had arrived rom the Chetluba, and gave flattering
accounts of that island and of iticapture, about which the pub-
lic are ahead.), informed. A force consisting of 1,000 men were
sent to the Della side to attack a stockade, but owing perhaps
to mistake on the part of the guide they returned without find-
ing its site."
By advices from ;Madras to the end of July, welearn that the
greatest distress existed there on account of a scarcity of grain
and food. To such a pitch had this increased, that the poorer
classes of the inhabitants were daily perishing in the streets from
starvation. A subscription had been set on foot by the richer
inhabitants, which had at the date of these advices been very
munficently supported..—(4lforniug Post.)

' sceptre of the same metal, they must surely be
fastidious to complain. If the decrees of Milan,
when Buonaparte issued them, were unpa-
ralleled in ancient or modern history, they
have since found their matches in other de.
crees, dated from that highly favoured capital,
`and inserted in our Journal of this day.—
Buonaparte interdicted only English manufac-
tures to his beloved people, but so much more
dearly does Francis tender the Lombards, Vene-
tians,Tyrolese, and Voralsbergers,that he relieves
them from all foreign commerce whatsoever ! No
one article from abroad, high or low in price, rare
or vulgar in description, capable or not capable
of being produced within the Austrian Empire—
whether luxury or indispensable necessity—is to
be tolerated by the Imperial Government, as
matter of sale or purchase. One individual may
petition for leave to import goods for 'the con-
sumption of his own family ! Kind indulgence;
there are so many families in Austria whose con-
sumption of foreign goods is such as to induce
them to freight vessels for their exclusive com-
fort. We have never heard nor read of an in-
vention more profoundly calculated for barbariz-
ing and extinguishing a mighty nation than this.
No Government, we dare to say, could have
ventured on it, but that whose fame and dignity
were so well consulted by a decree for confis-
cating English ladies (as well as manufactures),
should they set their foot on the Austrian soil.—
Truly, indeed, is
" Imperial Czssar dead, and turned to clay."

[MORNING CHRONICLE]

Our readers will see from our King's Bench
Report, that though the Court announced on Fri-
day that judgment would be given in the case of
Duncan v. Th wakes the following day, it was
declared on Saturday, by the Lord Chief Jus-
tice, that it would be inconvenient to deliver it at
present. Hitherto the delay in this case has been
advantageous, as it has enabled the Police Magis-
trates themselves, who ought to be the best judges,
to declare in the most unequivocal manner, on many
occasions, that the publication of the cases forms
an essential part of the police of the country.—
In the Vice-Chancellor's Court, on Saturday,
one of those distressing exhibitions took place
which reflect so much disgrace on the Judicial
system of this country. On his Honour the Vice-
Chancellor entering, Mrs. Ashley, a most respect.
able looking lady of middle age, addressed the
Court, in a speech which, accustomed as the prac-
titioners are to the language of distress, nmst, we
think, have made a deep impression on all who
heard it. This unfortunate lady held in her hand
a certificate from a respectable physician, stating
that she was labouring under an organic disease,
which for the last four years had confined her for
eight months out of the twelve to her chamber;
that by the will of her husband, which had not
been disputed, she was entitled to the Life• inte-
rest in an estate, of eight hundred pounds per
annum, the principal part of which had been pur-
chased with her fortune ; that the Reversioners
to the estate had resorted to every expedient by
which they might annoy and eventually wear her
out ; that the cause was heard four or five years
ago ; that it was referred to the Master to make
a report, but that up to the first week of the pre-
sent term no Report had been made. Will
the cries of the widow and the orphan ascend for
ever to Heaven in vain against that dilatory tri-
bunal ? W acquit, however, his Honour of add-
ing to the distress of suitors by delay iu giving
judgment. It were well if all other Judges were
as ready to decide after hearing causes as his
Honour.

[NEW TIMES.]

It cannot but be satisfactory to the reflecting
part of the public to see the South American
question put upon such fair and clear grounds as
those stated in the speeches of Lord Liverpool
and Mr. Canning. The principles laid down by
those two eminent persons are precisely such as
might have been calculated upon by all those
who have attended to the remarkable consistency
which has characterized the general course of
English politics for the last forty years. It
might have been thought not unnatural that
when the Spanish Colonies began to agitate the
question of their independence, we should have
remembered the manner in which Spain had in-
terfered in the dispute between us and our Co-
lonies, and should have rejoiced to make her feel,
that

_ Even handed justice
Commends the ingredients of the poison'd chalice
To her own lips.
—lt is now well known that the interference
both of France and Spain was owing to the base
and treacherous policy of M. De Vergennes, who,
to gratify his hatred of England, unconsciously
plunged his own country into the fatal abyss of
revolution. Awful was the ultimate retribution
of this wickedness ; but at the time of the French
Cabinet blindly exulted in the success of their
intrigues. In the Manifesto of 1779, they call-
ed the revolt of the British Colonies a " bril-
liant event"—said that the Americans had taken
up arms to preserve their rights their pri-
vileges, and their liberty," and that their de.
cla,ration of independence was the ‘' necessary
result" of the treatment they had received from
England. Spain acted with equal duplicity.
Secretly guided by French influence, she osten-
sibly proposed her mediation, insisting that dur-
ing the negociation the Colonies should be con-
sidered independent in acting ; and because this
perfidious mediation was rejected by Great
Britain, Spain affected to treat the rejection as an
insult, and as justifying her in supporting the

Capt. Clifford, C. 8., and the Medina, Capt. Hay, under or-
ders. • Capt. Hay got pratique

for Halifax.
" Seven o'Clock.—We have just had a communication with
the Medina. We have obtained the following information :

negotiation was but short, as
the Bey soon found it necessary to-give up the Greeks. The
Cant Hamilton was instructed

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY--(Turn
THE RED. MR. FLETCHER.
The COURT was this day more than usually
thronged in consequence of ins being understood
that the above case would have came on for ar-
g ment. Among the auditory we observed se-
veral of the Elders of Albion Chapel, a• number
of the hearers, and no small sprinkle of .Ladies.
Mr. SUADWELL called his Lordship's attention
to the case as follows :—May it please your
Lordship, in the case of the ATTOHNET•GENE..
UAL V. ALEXANDER FLETCHER, your Lordship
was pleased to order the motion to be made this
day. The A ttorney -Genera I, however, my
Lord, is not present, and as the duty of making-
the motion necessarily devolves on him, perhaps
your Lordship will order the case to stand over.
LORD CHANCELLOR.—Mr. Hart is also in the
case. How is he this morning ?
Mr. FeNuLA Ivo said, Mr. H. was very• unwell
still, but there was considerable amendment.
Mr. SHADWRLL—You see, my Lord, in the
absence of those gentlemen, the necessity of let-
ting the case stand over.
LORD CHANCELLOR--Certainly.—To what-day
will you have it ? Perhaps next Thursday will
suit your wishes.
The respective Counsel intimated their acqui-
escence, and an order to that effect issued accord..
ingly.—Much disappointment was manifested.

THE KING V. DAV AND OTHERS.

Mr. ADAM move,' for a rule calling on Lieutenant Day,
Captain Nicholas, and Mr. Nicholas, to show cause why a cri-
minal information should not be exhibited against them for in-
sulting and threatening Mr. Soulby, an Alderman of the
borough or West Loo, in order to provoke him to a breach
of the peace. The three tiefendants had acted in concert,
Captain Nicholas appearing as the friend of Mr. Day, and
lout threatened to horsewhip the complainant, and applied to
him very opprobrious language, Mr. Soulby positively swore
he had never given any provocation to Mr. flay, nor aspersed
his character. The Learned Counsel stated the circumstances
in detail; but he spoke in so low a tone, and there was so
much noise in Court, that we were unable to follow him.—
The COURT granted a rule to show cause.
DOE, ON THE DEMISE OF SYMES, ROE.

Mr. Pot.tocK moved in this case for judgment against the
casual ejector. The tenant in possession was the Rev. Alex-
ander Fletcher ; • and the present motion was made for judg-
ment, although the declaration WM not personally served, on
the ground that, Mr. Fletcher had evaded the service. On
Saturday, the 30th of October, the attorney for the lessor of
the' Plaintiff called at the house where Mr. Fletcher resided,
and requested to see him. The servant went into the house,
and returned with a message that Mr. Fletcher would see
the party on Monday. Upon this, the man was induced to
withdraw, and to call on Monday. On this day Mr. Fletcher
called out from an inner room that he would not see the
person at all, anti he left the declaration with a lady, whom he
understood to be Mr. Fletcher's sister.
The Loan Cittty JIrSTICE.—Take the rule.

THE THEATRE,

COVENT-GARDEN.--During the short season at
the English Opera House, a musical Piece was
brought forward under the title of The Frozen
Lake. The same Piece,or another translation from
the French original, was represented last night at
this Theatre, with the same title. The plot is
full as probable as most Pieces of a similar de-
scription ; at least it has dramatic probability
sufficient to excite a strong interest in itself, and
that interest derives considerable addition from
the cast of the characters, and the merit
with which they are all supported. SoNzs, BART-
PEARM AN, KEELY, MISS LOVE, and Miss
M. Tare, are all supplied with parts to which
they render ample justice. Miss LOVE who im-
proves daily as an actress and a singer, acted her
part with great feeling, and sung with great
skill. Miss M. TREE, decidedly excellent as
an actress, as well as almost pre-eminent as a
singer, acquitted herself admirably in both capa-
cities, and the drama itself was received with
great applause. We ought not to conclude this
article without noticing the previous represeuta-
tion of the revived comedy of A lVoman never
Vext. The extraordinary success of this co-
medy is a very creditable proof that pub.
lic taste Is not extinct, but capable of being
restored to " sound and pristine health." The
play itself is highly interesting, and in parts
deeply affecting. • There is point, humour, sar.
casm and wit in the dialogue. The fable is
well constructed ; it has on the whole a strong
moral tendency, and never were similar qualities,
in any similar drama, brought forward in repre-
sentation with more appropriate truth and effective
vigour than by the chief performers, male and
female, in this sterling old comedy.

MUSICALS,

CAMBRIDGE.—Two Concerts were held here at the Town.
hall, on Tuesday and Wednesday last, conducted by Pro-
fessor Clarke ‘Vhitiield, in which Miss Stephens and Brabant
were the principal vocal performers, and Nicholson and Lind-
ley the principal instrumental. The well-known talents of
these performers need no commendation. On the first. night,
the performance of Mr. Nicholson, on the flute, perfect-
ly enraptured his audience, and the shouts of well-de-
served applause whirh followed, showed how duly it was
appreciated. Mr. Braham's " Deeper and deeper still"
was given in his usual style of excellence; the power of
voice that accompanied the words--" that lash me into mad-
ness," made the room ring with acclamations. Miss Stephens'
" Gin living worth would win my heart," and Itraham's
" The winter it is past," as also the duet " When thy bosom
heaves the sigh," were all received with great applause and
encored. On the second night, Mahan) sang " Smile again
my bonnie lassie" (composed by Mr. Parry), with beautiful
simplicity, and was rapturously encored. Miss Stephens in
" Charlie is my darling," the height of excellence ; the
encore was universal, and it was called- for a third time with
loud clamour, but ingconsideration of the exertion required, the
call was rot persisted in. Mr. Nicholson, it will be enough
to say, equalled his first performance. It is impossible to
give an adequate idea of it; too much cannot be said in its
praise. Mr. Lindley on the violoncello was received on both
evenings with rapturous applause. The very high notes he
produces on this instrument are most extraordinary, and the
whole of his performance afforded an uncommonly delectable
treat. Draham's " Scots wha hae wi Wallace bled," was
given with. his usual energy of expression and ]rarer of voice;
the deafening clamours which demanded it a third time were
not to !Tasted; the whole audience was wrapt in admiration
and delight. " God save the King" was sang on both nights,
the audience ecstatically joining in the chorus. The room was
on both nights crowded" to excess before seven o'clock.
