On the sth inst. as one of the Armed Vessels

lying in the River at Harwich, was celebrating the
Anniversary of the Discovery of the Gunpowder
PI) , she discharged orie of her guns loaded with
gripe shot at the Carty of the jd Royal Lancashire
Militia, on the opposite side of the River, near
LaAguard Fort. the balls mailed the ground in
several places within the lines of the encampment,
and both Officers and men had a most miraculous
escape. One of the balls passed between two, of the
Officers who were walking on the Parade, and another
,tithem flew up the Officers' s treet,g razing the ground
in several places: the rest of them took diffetent di-
re4tions through the Encampment, where there were
nearly eleven hundred men, but providentially with-
out hurting any of them. Eight of the balls were
soon afterwards picked up, some at the distance of
half a mile beyond the Camp, and each of them
weighed upwards of a pound,
About three o'clock on Tuesday se'nnight. as
'some soldiers were drinking : together, at the Half.
M ,on public.house, at Battle, Sussex, a dreadful
affiay took place between a party of the 70th foot,
on their march, and some Artillery-men stationed in
the barracks of that place, in which two of the lat.
ter, Bombardiers, named Mark Kett and Witham
White, were shot dead on the spot : a third was
badly wounded with a bayonet, and sent to the
hospital, where he now remains under the hands of
the Surgeon, but in a fair way of recovery. The
ball by which the first man fell, entered one of his
arms, which it passed through into his body, and
was extraded by Mr. WATTs, from his kidneys.
The second fatal ban entered his comrade's breast,
and after a thorough perforation of the body, pass-
ed through a wainscot at some distance behind
him. . On view of the bodies of the deceased the
same day, before the Coroner, Jour; TILDIN
SAMPSON, Esq. the Jury returned verditt of
Wilful Murder against Corporal Murphy, and a
private named Fanner, of the loth Regiment, and
they were in consequence committed to Horibm
jail, to take their trials at the next Assizes.

Yesterday the Worcester Mail-coach broke down
in Piccadilly. - The Coachman was thrown off; and
very much bruised by the fall.
