OXFORD, FRIDAY, JULY 5.

On this, as well as on the felrrner days, some
beautiful short pieces Of music were performed by
-the band let-veep each recitation, and they con-
cluded with " God save the King," in which the
Wonderful sweetness .and compass of Madame Ca-
talani's voice•were particularly admired.
The Chancellor, and a numerous party of Noble-
Anca aid Gentlemen, with the Vice-Chancetlor and
Proaors, afterwards dined with the Principal and
Fellows of Brazen-nost,.. College, in their bail. ,The
fourth al,d last concert iH the Theatre, as well as
the hall at Int. Town-hall, were much crowded, and
went otiextetne!y well.

• Any non-cotpmiSsioned officer or soldier who
may be tried -and convicted of desurtion, whenever
the Court-Martial which shall pass sentence up,in
such trial, shall net think the offence .deserving of
capital punishment, !may adjudge. the offender ac-
cording to.tlie nature of the offence, and it they
think proper, may transport him as a felon, for a
certain term of years, at the expiration of which he
shall be at the disposal of his M tjesty for service as a
soldier, in any of' his Majesty's*forces, at home or
abroad, for life. And if such non-commissioned
officer or ptivate who, having been transported as
felon, shall afterwards (witiniut leave from his Ml-
jesty, -or from the General or Commander of ;tie
place to which he shalt have been transpOrted) return
into any part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain
or Ireland, and be fonnd therein at large before the
expiration of the term limited by such sentence, he
shall:be deemed guilty of felony, and be liable, to,
suffer death as a felon, without benefit of clergy.

The latest letters from America state, that a dif-
ference which. arose. between Mr. SMITH and Mr.
GALLATIN, in the-Council Chamber, and in pre-
sence of ale PLESIDENT, led to a display 'of Minis-
terial pugilistic skill, which u as, however, soon in-
terrupted by Mr. MADISON interference. Appre-
hensions were entertained that the atlitir. would ter-
minate in a duel.

Tnis morning the Chancellor will pay his re-
spects to the heads of !mines and Members of
Convocation at their respedivc colleges and hails,
and in thc cvening he will quit Oxford on his re-
Cam to Dropmure..- We rejoice to add that the
health of the Chano,llor does nut appear to have
suffered fronythe fatigue and exertion to :11rich his
Lordship itad necessarily been exposed.
In Speaking of the Concerts, our limits ..wlll not
allow us to point out those songs, or pieces of
music, which were most applauded. They- were
misctikineons, and when we have said' that the
sehtoions were made:by Dr. Crotch,: our ProfesSor
of. Music, and that they were perforn:ed by the
first v veal and instrumental performers in the king-
dom, al the head of whom were Catalani and CI arner,
it is impos'sible to say more in their praise. ,
