knocked at the gates leading. into them. They inquired for
a " stout woman," but, were answered by the female living
there that they kneW of no such. pamon. Their wholo, inten,
lien however, seemed to be to get the women aut who lived
in the cottages, for Airs, king, one of the housekeepers, had
no sooner made tier appearance, than the prisoners fell
upon her, and gave her an unmerciful beating.

John Jones, a notorious vagabond, whose face is as familiar

It appeared from the evidence, that on; the previous night

at 12 o'clock the prisoner was fighting with another man on
Saffron-hill. An immense mob had collected .on the plaet
and, before the combatants could be separated, the prison'
cat open his antagonist's eye •brow' who refused, hoWever, to.
give him in charge, as he had a wife and family and could not
afford to lose a day's work by attending at a
police-court. Tbe
constable took the prisoner into custody, who used the 'OW'
language, and was exceedingly violent all the way to the
station-house.

The prisoner was fined 55., or a commensurate term of iin:
prisonment. The money not being forthcoming he was sell"

CHATHAM.
JULY 10.—The Commandant, Sir Thomas Wilshire, Bart'
issued garrison orders this day to Major J. Casiolel
Harold, commanding the 74th, to hold in readiness a detach-
ment of his corps to proceed to Harwich to relieve a will-
pany of the 58th, that returns to this garrison.
This morning the following detatachments from the Pro'
visional battalion marched from this depot en route to Graves'
end, attended by the drum,: and fifes of the battalio 1, when
they embarked from the Ordnance Wharf no board the 10111
Owen Glendower, for Bengal : their strength consisted of 6
men of the 10th Regiment, and 58 men of the 62d, under tie
command of Captain Startler, of the 10th; Ensign Fitzg( raid,
39th; wad Ensign Bruce, also of the 39th. A medical officeer
proceeded with the troops to inspect them. when on board'
Colonel Kelly and Captain Jackson also went with the men
to see that every requisite accommodation was afforded 0
them on board.

The casement barrack at Brompton, which has bees,
fitted up at a considerable expense for the accommodation 0'
invalid soldiers, is now so crowded that it was found' neces-
sary on Monday to apply to Sir Thomas Wiltshire, Ber'
tier additional barrack room. There are at this time nearly
1,200 men of different corps in these barracks, although tbee
were fitted up for the accommodation of only 840 men. Th
inconvenience felt is very great.
The late Sergeant-Major .Valance, of the 12th Lancer!,
who, it will be recollected, was tried at Chatham on the 6th
of May by a Court-martial, for an alleged attempt to bribe
Major Mayer, :of the cavalry depot at Maidstone, and ifif
was reduced to the ranks, has since been sent to his regilliel!
and returned again yesterday to be discharged; he has been
...
in the service twenty-six years, fourteen of which he %
troop-sergeant, has been nearly two years sergeant-mater'
and during the whole period of his service had conducted
himself in every manner worthy the character of a British
,
soldier; owing, however, to that charge against him, he will
only be allowed a shilling a day pension, which it is under.
stood will be granted to him.
