REVIEW OM ASHFORD COMMON.

lirt,vas in contemplation, a fortnight ago, to Re.
view the 13th Regiment of Light Dragoons, and a
Corps of Artillery from 'Woolwich ; but in conse-
quence of the unfavourable state of the weather at
that time, it was deferred till Saturday last. At,an
early hour, the Park of Artillery was brought into
the field from Kingston, where it had arrived the
;preceding right from Woolwich. ShoitVafter, the
„Troops of Cavalry to he reviewed appeared, having
, Come, the same morning, frotul tkalE,macters at
Hounslow, Windsor, and Hampton Cobrißairacks.
&detachment,of the 23d Light Dr:igolirls kept the
ground, and were early at dick Station.. At ten
o'clock the whole were drawn up.
At half past eleven o'clock the Artillery, on the'
right and left of the line, announced the arrival of
His Royal Highness the DUKE of YORK, by a salute
of 21 guns. Ott His Royal Highness appearing in
front of the line, the Officers saluted, standards
dropped, and the trumpets sounded, " God Save
the King." The Commander in Chief was accom.
partied by Their Royal Highnesses the Dukes
Of CLARENCE and CAMERIDCE ; His Excellency
Etat Bev, mounted on an Arabian horse ; Gene.
rals the Earl of-HARRINGTON, FOX, DUMOURIER,
PICHEGRU, and a numerous train of Staff aneuther
Officers..

His Royal Highness the Commander in Chief
and party now proceeded to the right, and com.
menced inspeeting the line, during which the Colo,.
nel of -the 233 Light Dragoons, at the request of
His Royal Highness, explained to his Excellency
Eurt BEY (who seemed highly pleased. with the
attention paid him) the different manoeuvres the
Troops were to go through. The cavalcade having
again arrived in front, the 13th Light Dragoons
went through their different evolutions of the broad
sword Exercise, in a very correa manner ; after
which, assisted by the Royal Artillery on their
flanks, they wheeled off, and exhibited the mode of
attack and defence at full speed, besides several
other mantativres. The business of the day was
completed at half past one o'clock, when the Duct
of YORK left the ground, accompanied by his Ex.
cellency ELF! 13ey, and several Officers, and pro.
ceeded to Oatlands to dinner. His Royal Highness
the Du K a of CLARENCE at the same time adj,,urned
with a party of Officers to Bushey Park to dinner,
where His Royal Highness ille.Picti4tl of WALES
was expeded to meet them. ,The da)iiwas uncom.
monly fine, and drew together as spiendi,d an assem-
blage as we ever witnessed on a similar occasion.

.SM4LL BILLS.

IN several 'parts of the Country, the scarcity of
Silver has been Ruch, as to compel the Ttades.pet
pie, for the ordinary purposes of change, to issue
small Promissory Notes ; thepradice is:however,
illegal, and should be discontinued until the Legi.
sloture may render it otherwise, or adopt some other
remedy fur the inconvenience it was intended to
obviate.

By an Ad of the tsth of his present Majesty, it
is enaeled, 46 That if any Person or Persons shall at

VERSES.

The following Verses set to Musk, were to be
performed by the Send of Royal Scots Fusiliers, now
quartered itt'Dablin, .on Sr, Andrew'b.day. •

IN Britain's Isle, in former days,
Her Druids sung their artless lays
They 'love inspir'd, or high ptum'd war,
And foremost drove the tlitincrring car
Full they could the talehion wield, r
And firmly trod tit' ensanguin'd held ;
The tae who tlard'iVith hatighty bOund
To tread their-much loy'd-native ground,
;Oft bit the dust upon-the heath,
And clos'd their eyes in awful death.
Had foremost of that warlike race,
• Ye arttient Banis who well cOuld trace
Tbe-mighty deeds so nobly done,
vi tortes so often woo
By Caledonia's dauntless 'Thanes,
Who oft repell'd the inviding Danes.
Ye sons of chat uneonqtter'd land,
While cite and freedom's at command,,
0 Dryer bow to foreignsway
Nor tear the Tyrant of the day. -
Remember t 0 remember still,
- From wher.ce ye sprung—what blood doll',
fiU
Your azure veins—and let }our fame
Transmit to distant times your name.
You fathers left you Freedom's laws,
:Your patron Saint, a nobler cause,.
The cause of Heav'n, 'Religion pure—. ,
Then-bravely keep those blessings sure:
And while revolving years rOll round
Forgei not Scotia —ltatiV e ground—
But with true hearts be bilthe and
And hail St. Andrew's natal day.

PUPLIG.OFFJCA, BOW STREET.

•
ON Sunday night, about ten o'clock• as Tho•
mat Jones, and Others of the Patrisle,. were -on
duty in the King's Road, they met a man, whom,
they questioned as ro his business oft the road, &c.
and he not giving a satisfaetory account, one. of the
patrole put' his hand.on the man's breast, and disco.
vered a pistol ; and on his being asked what he carried
the pistol far, he said, to defend himself; which not
being satisfaCtory, the patrole secured him, and on
searching him, they-found a number of PawnbrAers
duplicates. Among thein were sereeal for watches-.;
one ofthem described the maker's name to be Bun-
yan, which one 'of the patrole recollected to he
the maker's name of one, 004 coachmen's watches
who have been_lately robbed. Yesterday morning
he,was brought to. Bow street, and underwent an
examination before the Sitting Magistrates, when
-the, Flackney.coachman whO was robbed on the id
inst. near 'St: John's Wood Farm, attended, and a
Pawnbiriker producing a watch, agreeably to one
of the dupileates, he positively identified the wateh,
and also the person to be the rubber.
Thomas Jones, the ha-ckney coachman who was
robbed on the 3d instant, in Maiden.lane, attended,
and likewise identified a watch produced by a pawn_
broker-, and the person Of the Prisoner. The Pri-
soner refused to give any name, or to give any 'ac-
count of himself. -He gave the ' names of Gordon'
and Sniith 'when he pledged the watches. He is a
Scorchman, and speaks very broad. He was com-
mitted for further examination.
Yesterday a young num' was brought before the
Magistrates, charged with felonionsly•• stealing• a
bullock, the 'property of •Mr. Harcourt, of Stan_
more. It appeared in evidence, that the bullock
was in a drove of six others, on Monday se'nnighr,
passing by Bagnigge Wells, when the Prisoner, with
about fourteen others, separated the bullock from
thedrove by force, and struck at the drover with a
,tick, When he attempted to. prevent them. A boy,
whO was-a speCtator, discovered where the bullock
was, in White
_Conduit-fields, and-likewise the
prisoner, and where he was to be found. He was
fully committed for trial for stealing the bullock.
A young man of genteel appearance, who has
lately praCtified various depredations at several Cof..
fee-houses, was charged with stealing a watch from
the 1-lungerford Coffee-house, and a silver salt eel-
tar front the St. James's COtree-house, both of which
charges being satisfactorily
.made. out, he was corn.
;pitted for trial : he said he was the son of a naval
officer.

BOARD OP ACRICULTURi7.

YESTERDAY, at one o'clock, a allot commenced
at the BOARD of AGR tctiLruar, in Sackville.street,
conformably to the rules of their Charter, for the
eleelion of a President; Treasurer, Chief Secretary,
and five new Ordinary Members, in room of the
same number who go out in annual rotation. The
Ballot closed at three o'clock, when the following
Noblemen and Gentlemen were declared by the Pre-
sident to have been duly eleted, viz.

PRESIDENT-- Itight Honoatable Lord SIIEF
N&W °RAII:ARV MEMB/RS.

G. T. SUMNER, Esq.

TREASVItER--10111 GRANT, Esq.
CUW, SZCIZTARY-ARTHUR YOUNG, ESQ.

On the Board-day preceding, Lord CAR R I NGTO
had signified his desire, that a Successor to him might
be named to fill the distinguished office of President,
finding that he could not conveniently devote so much
time for another year, as the duties of it would neces.
sarily require. His Lordship then detailed, in a com-
prehensive statement, the various ohjetfts that had
principally chimed the attention of the Board in
the course of his Presidency. In this, he called
to the recolleaion of the Members the grounds
on which they had been induced to recommend a Ge-
neral Inclostire Bill to the consideration of the Legis-
lature, and the clamour of prejudice that had, not
very liberally, been raised against it. His Lordship
concluded a very eloquent Speech by a tributary
compliment to the Board, for the invariable deco-
rum that had marked their proceedings, trusting
that his Successor would experience the same flatter.
sing assistance and attention with which he had 'so
highly, and, he feared, undeservedly, been ho.
floured.-

The Earl of tGREMONT then rose, and moved,
that the Speech, which the Board had evidently heard
with so much pleasure and satisfaelion, should be
printed, and added to the Records of the Institution.
His Lordship said, that he was not induced to move
this from any motive of personal regard to his Noble
Friend, but as an aft of justice to the Board, over
whom he had so long and ably presided, and the
patriotic tenor of whose tondua, he had so eloquent.
ly elucidated.—The motion passed rem. can.

A daring robbery was attempted on Wednesday
evening last, at the Ebenezer Methodist Chapel, in
King.street, Bristol : some villains,, who are supposed
to have concealed themselves in the Chapel, re.
moved from its situation an iron chest, which was
fixed with masonry into the wall, (containing a
considerable sum in cash, and some writings of inf.
portance) : after having succeeded in getting it out
of the Chapel,' some of the tackle used in carrying
it of gave way, and the chest (about 3 cwt.) fell on
the ground wlth such violence and noise as to occa.
sion an alarm, what the depredators were forced to
decamp without their booty. The goodness of the
locks, and the strength of the chest, had rendered
fruitless every attempt to open its

that- tilt:ls4soller was in' a state_ of insanity at the
time of co►nmitting this unfortuitate crime of which
he stood charged, and would therefore give their
verdict accordingly.
The Jury then returned their verdict of=- .Vat
Guilty, on account of Insanity at the time.

At the York Assips, Joseph Heald and John
Terry were tried and found guilty of the murder of
Elizabeth Smith, an old woman of 67; who had
about eighteen guineas, which was, the. objeet of
their rapacity. The crime was proved by a nuber
of circumstances, clearly evincing their guilt;" be- •
sides Terry, previously to trial, hvd confessed.
When the criminals were at the place of execu-
tion, an extraordinary scene of confusion ensued.—
Terry pretended that Heald was innocent:i but
his guilt was so evident, that the Judge, ilecus_
ed to respite him. On theirbeing brought mete
platform, Terry, who seemed to have wrought
himself up into a .state of frenzy, went forward
to the front, and exclaimed in a loud voice,
" They, are going to hang an innocent man imean,.-
ing Heald); he is .as innocent as any of you ;"
on uttering of which, he immediately made a sud.
den'spring, in order to get down the ladder, which,
he certainly would have effeted, had he not been
laid hold of .by the Clergyman; while they were
pulling him back, he again exclaimed, 44 Lt was'
me that murdered the woman; I said it was
Heald ; but I did .so 'to- .save my own life ;
and would not any of you hang an innocent man
to save your own life ?" which he repeated, add-
ing, 41 Don't hang Heald ; if you do, I shall be
guilty of two murders." The Clergyvn then pro-
ceeded to do his duty, to which #l.'erry 'pad no atten.
don, but continued very claMorous, notwithstanding.
the entreaties of not to deprive him of the be.
nefit of the prayers ; but Terry was not to be re_
strained; and it was iron: the utmost exertions of
five or six men, that he could be dragged to the drop,
and the rope forced Over his head ; during which
he tore off his cap; and at , the moment when the

Heald, 'Ferry made a 'spring, and threw himself
against a rail of the scaffold, got his foot upon
the edge of a beam, and caught the corner post
with his arm, by which he supported himself, zwil
in this dreadful situation he coniinued for abaut
a minute, till he was forced off by the executioner,
and launched into eternity, with his face uncovered..
Heald met death with,great composure, and never
attempted to deny his being guilty. The probable.
reason for Terry's wretched behaviour, was either
to delay the execution, or by declaring an innocent
man was going to suffer, he wished to excite the
compassion of the numerous spedators, •and induct
them to attempt a rescue.

present you will find from six to eight head of Mile
in the stable of many a'peasant, and the corn-fiCids
Much improved by the greater quantity of manure
they furnish.
Before I proceed, it is proper to mention, that
the lands contained in his firth, formerly lay scat-
tered.in single pieces among those which belonged
to the villagers; and that the stubble and the ley
lands were used in common for the feeding of their
cattle and Rocks. The farm produced a rent' of
only one thortsand dollars; Mr. de
.Billow yr-
suaded the villagers to transfer to him, as his In-
depodent property, a common of about seven hon.;
Bred' acres, consisting of grass land ; in return for
which he made a cession to them of all his arable
land, and gave up his right of feeding his cattle on
the other commons with theirs. If a general divi-
sio,i had -taken place, he would have had double the
quantity for his share,, but his patridtic spirit was
solely gloated by the desire of giving an example;
in that beautiful country, of a well regulated system
of rural economy, and :of 'the advantages to be de-
rived from a diviiion.of commons.,

This extent: of grass-land, 'which, as was dis.
cernable by its furrows, had been tilled many cen-
turies ago, consisted of a very good soil. It was
broken up by Mr. de Billow, •and laid out in seven
partitions close to one another, each consisting of
ninety acres, and an additional, one of sixty acres
adjoining to the farm. The farm has, besides,
twenty-four acres of meadow, and twenty-two acres
of garden ground.
The smaller portion is destincd partly for lu-
cerne, and partly fur cabbages, for roots and vege-:
tables !Or sale. . , .

The seven main partitions, are managed in the
following manner ; ,One year manured for beans,
pea,e, cabbages, potatoes, turnips, litbeed, .45cs.
second, rye ; third, barley mixed with .clover;
fourth, clover, t be mowed two, or three times;
fifth, clover, to be snowed once at St. John's, then
to be broker, up, plosighed three or fmr times, and
manured ; sixth, heat, and seventh, oats.

arrived from the Earl of THMJET, offering the Re-
giment every accommodation which Hot hfield House
could afford, and requesting the company of the
Officers to dinner, where they were entertained in a
most princely style, and spent the evening in the full
enjoyment of all the comforts of true 49;glish hospi.

were declined by the Officers, who preferred. sleep.
ing in their encampment.
The next morning the Regiment marchato Bray_

'night, and here also they enjoyed another proof of
English politeness, having received an invitation
from Sir EDWARD KNATC HBULL, which was de.
clined with warm acknowledgments, in conse.

Officers, therefore, dined in their tent on the Heath,
and filled bumpers to the health of those whose hos-

THE THEATRE.

Drury-Lane.

The opening performance at this Theatre, with
a laudable zeal of Patriotism, was on Saturday last
allotted to the noble Fund instituted by the Gen.
tlernen of LLOYD'S Course-Hou►e, the merit°.
rious purpose of which is universally known, and
must be admired by all who enjoy the blessings of
true Freedom under the British Constitution.
The Play chosen on this occasion was Pizarro,
and it was chosen with judgment ; because it holds
forth to proper detestation an ambitious and re.
morseless Tyrant, and the example of a virtuous
People sensible of the duty they owe to their Coun-
try, and to a good King. The chief features, there-
fore, of this Dramatic Romance, very well corres.
pond with the designs of our insulting and relentless
foe, and with the patriotic ardour which animates
the whole race. of Britons to make him feel their
vengeance, if he and his military ruffians should pre-
sume to set a hostile foot upon our &hum.
The House was not crowded on this interesting
occasion, but the audience was sufficiently large to
chew that the cause is dear to the Public.

All the patriotic effusions of the tender and gal..
lant Rolla, which seemed to have received some
heightening touches from the pen of the Author,
were received with the warmest bursts of sympathy..
Pory supported the part with great animation.
The part of Alameo was performed by HOLLAND,
who last season acquitted himself respectably in that
charaeler. In constquente of some discontent on his
entrance, he came forward with a modest apology
for appearing in it instead of Mr. H. JOHNSTON,
.Who It seems was not sufficiently prepared.—The
zest of the Charaders were represented by the usual
Performers, except a Mr. BURROWS, in that of the
Priest of the Sue; who displayed a voice of consi.
derable power and compass, as well as of good mu..
sical tone.

The After.piece was Mr. HOARE'S whimsical
Farce of The Prize, which went off with no abate-
ment of spirit. The Performers as they respec-
tively entered were all honoured by a very liberal
greeting from the Audience.

DOPER, SEPT. tI.

A Neutral Vessel with Passengers for Valais,
sailed yesterday ; bur it is doubtful if they will be
permitted to land. We are still Without arrivals
ftom France.

There is not the slightest foundation for the
accounts stated in the Star, and other Papers, of
an Expedition having sailed from the Downs.—
Not a single Soldier of General MOOR t's Brigade
has moved from Shorne Cliff Camp, nor has a single
man embarked in the Downs. There are four

Transports only in the Downs, and which have lain
there more than a month, but their destination is
lint known.

Oar Eight Companies of Volunteer Infantry were
paraded to Church this afternoon, after which they
were inspected by Mr. PITT, who expressed in the
strongest terms his approbation of their soldier-like
appearance, and the rapid progress they had made
in military taftics.

Mr. Purr's attention to the Cinque Ports Bd.
gades is indefatigable and unremitting, and the zeal
and energy he inspires is hardly to be described.

INDIA BUDGET.

Lord CASTLEREAGH moved the Order of the
Day for the House going into a Committee on Ac-
counts presented respeding the East India Company.
The House having
.resolved itself into a Com-
mittee,

Lord CASTLEREAGHsaid, that the Committee
would'be aware that many of the observations which
he. had to submit to their consideration, respelled
the Accounts which had been presented to the House
List Session. The Accounts for the List year had
not yet been received from India, otherwise it
would have been his wish to have .brought both the
Accounts under the consideration of the House at the
same time. But as the House must wish to know the
present state of the affairs of the East India Corn.
pany, as they must he naturally anxious to know
what measures the Finances of the East India Com-
pany would enable them to take for the liquidation
of their Debt, he should with the permission of
the Committee, proceed to call their attention to the
Accounts which, as he had before stated, 'were laid
upon the Table of the House in the last Session of
Parliament. The alnirs of the East India Compny
naturally,divided themselves into two classes, viz.
those abroad and those at home. Their affairs abroad.
were divided into three distinEt heads, namely, t st,
the Revenues and Charges; 2d, the extent Of, and
Provision for the Investments ; and, 3.1, the State
of their Debt and their Assets. With resped to
theßeventies, he would state them first upOn an
av,:t.age of three years, compared with one year
preceding ; zdly, he would make a comparison.
between the estimated amount and the aftual amount
of the Revenue of the List year ; and, idly, the
estimated Revenue for the succeeding year. He
should, therefore, now proceed to state the Re-
venues, Charges, and Estimates with respen to

BENGAL.

time enough NO been granted to each party, to be

sex Vehion.

Mr. BRAGGE said, it was a question of doubt
with him, whether the merits of the Middlesex
Petition could be tried this Session, anti as an Hon.
Gentleman opposite to him had very properly ob-
served, that the House could ballot but two Com-
mittees a week, he thought the Middlesex Peti-
tion could not, at all events, be tried till the zd of
June. He believed that the time generally allowed
'fir the exchange of lists was a month ; under all
these circumstances he thought the first of May a
period that would not be objefted to for the de.
livering of the lists now moved for by the Hon.
Gentleman.
Mr. S HERIDAN said, that Mr. MAINWAR I NG'S
Agent had called on Sir FRANC IS BURDETT'S Soli-
citor, who agreed 'to the 7th of April as a period
fur the delivery of the lists.
Mr. FOX observed, that he had understood from
the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, that only
two' ballots a week were to take place prior to the
Holidays, in consequence of many Gentlemen hav-
ing to attend the Sessions, and other public business,
which rendered it inconvenient, nay, impossible for
them to pay close attention to the business of that
House,. till after the Holidays. The ballots, he un-
derstood, were then to go on as usual.
' After a few observations from the CHANCELLOR
of the EXCHEQUER, the question was put, and the
first of May was the time agreed to by the House
for receiving the lists of each party.
The Croydon Iron Rail Bill was' read a second
time and committed.
