EAST INDIA SHIP LONACH.

Few circumstances within our recollection
have excited more astonishment in the city than
the publication yesterday morning of Mr.
Croker's letter to Lloyd's, accompanied by that
of the Captain and owner of the Lonach East
Indiaman, addressed to the Portuguese Consul
on the subject of her detention, with insulting
conduct to the Captain and crew, by the
blockading squadron off Terceira. Both parties
seem to have entirely forgotten how many proofs
are on record to the contrary of what they now
state ; the efforts made by themselves to interest
the Government in their favour, that they might
obtain redress for the injuries inflicted ; and their
high estimate of damages by the detention. As
some weeks have elapsed since the events were
first made public, and they may, consequently,
have escaped the general recollection, we re-
publish the Captain's letter, addressed to the Se-
cretary to Lloyd's, as the best commentary on
the whole affair :
" Ship Lonach, off the Start Point, June 25.
" Sir,—On Thursday, June 11, we sighted the
Western Islands, the wind blowing strong from
the N.E. On Friday, the 12th, at half-past nine,
A.M. saw two large ships to windward under easy
sail. Tacked ship, and made all sail to the N.N.E.
We perceived one of the ships make all sail after us;
at ten she gave us a gun shotted. The ship coming
up fast with us, I hove to; at eleven A. 111. the ship
chasing us proved to be a large frigate under Pot.-
tuguese colours. She hove to, pistol shot to wind-
ward of us; manned and armed a large cutter; the
boat came alongside and boarded us. After the
officer had examined my papers, I asked if there
was war with Portugal. He replied, not with Eng-
gland. I then begged to know why he came on
board with an armed force; he said it was to force
compliance with his instructions—that is, to carry
my ship to Ids Commodore, then cruising off the
city of Angra, under blockade. I protested against
such illegal proceeding•, and demanded permission
to proceed on my voyage. He said he must obey
his orders. Finding it impossible to resistan armed
force, I attempted to work the ship to windward.
At six p. Si., finding the Commodore further distant
than at noon, I hove to, to speak with the Captain
of the frigate. He sent the Second Lieutenant
to know the cause of my heaving to. I told
his Lieutenant it was to request his permission
to proceed on my voyage without further detention ;
and that if he persisted to detain my ship by force
cf arms, I must protest against it, and consider my-
self his prisoner, and the British ship under my
command wholly under his charge and responsi-
bility. He sent his Lieutenant, with about thirty
men, independent of twelve marines armed. They
hauled down the ensign, and took charge. At eight
p.m. they wore ship, and followed the motions of
the frigate during the night. At day-light on Sa-
turday, the Commodore still further to windward.
The frigate made all sail. At one p.m. he made a
signal to the Commodore. The Commodore bore
down to the frigate, and communicated. At. half-
past three p.m. the frigate hove down to us, and at
near four p.m. sent her boats for the officers and
men; and the second Lieutenant told me the Ad-
miral had given permission for my proceeding, and
that I might now make sill in prosecution of the
voyage. I again informed him I had protested it:
my ship's log-hook against his illegally taking pos.
session of my ship by force of arms, and detaining
me. He said it was the orders of his Admiral. On
the 23d of Jane spoke the cutter hero, from Liver-
pool, bound to the coast of Africa, all well.—l have
the honour to remain, Sir, your humble and obe-
dient servant,

" EDWARD NOAKS, Comm,,nder ship Lonach."
To this plain seaman's narrative it is only ne-
cessary to add, that the Committee of Lloyd's,
in the most prompt and effectual manner, brought
the matter before the Board of Admiralty, with
which the Captain and his owner had inter-
views, and established their case so completely,
that an official application was made on their
behalf to the Portuguese Government. They
now come publicly forward to state that no in-
jury was received, and that the conduct of the
officer of the blockading squadron was correct !

because any hf.‘,rs:, however quiet in a wheel carriage, will
run away if his bridle be taken off his head, as he then
sees, and is terrified at, the whicle behind him, and becomes
more and more terrafd at the wheels continuing to follow

ATTEMPT 7 0 ASSASSINATE A FEMALE.

I A cowardly and brutal attempt to assassinate a
female, whose name is Ellen Marshall, and who was
servant to a gentleman residing in the vicinity of
Cashel, was made at Kilfeacle on Friday night by a
gang of armed men. After firing into and breaking
the house of a farmer named Davern, they called
out for the wretched woman in a ferocious and
savage manner, and commanded her to appear before
them. Concealment was out of the question. On
seeing them she called out to spare her life, and de-
clared she would never be seen in the place again.
The ruffians, callous and unmindful of the feeling;
which ought to govern them in their conduct to-
wards an unprotected female, dragged her into the
yard, and discharged a pistol at her, the contents of
which (a ball) entered her thigh. Another shot
was fired at her, but it took no effect. Perceiving
symptoms of her being alive, she was knocked on
her back, trampled on, and the most fierce determi-
nation evinced to deprive their victim of existence.
After their manly and courageous deed had been
thus far performed, they exclaimed—" Boys, she is
now settled fur—Hurra, she is done for—come
away," and on leaving the place fired a shot. The
poor woman, almost in a state of nudity, lay in a
pool of water in the yard, weltering in blood, for
several hours. A Magistrate of the county, having
beard of this outrage, while riding from Cashel to
Tipperary, hurried to the place next morning, and
found the woman on her way to the County In-
firmary. Having heard of an intention to murder
her, the benevolent gentleman gave her in charge
to a party of police, who attended particularly to
the directions given them. The brother of Ellen
Marshall, who was also in Davern's house on that
night, narrowly escaped being murdered, a ball
having grazed his head. Davern himself had an
arduous struggle with one of the villains. The
only cause assigned for this disgraceful outrage is
.her being able to identify four fellows who had
burned her master's house and premises in April
last, and who, dreading a prosecution for the offence,
are supposed to have resorted to that mode of re-
moving her out of the way. We regret that the
police have lost all clue to the unmanly wretches
guilty of this daring attempt at assassination.—

MILITARY REMINISCENCES.

A NIGHT BEFORE ST. SEBASTIAN.

During the second attack upon St. Sebastian,
passed the most eventful night, or rather morn-

ing, I ever spent ; I will not allow from fear,
for I was not afraid, but from extreme suspense
and surprise. I was sure of being killed, and
had made up my mind to it. I was desirous to

be killed at once, feeling like a man going to be
executed, but which is unaccountably delayed.
When the advanced battery near the breach
was about completed, it was generally considered
to be no sinecure to be allowed to get the guns
into it, as they must be taken from some dis-
tance quite exposed, even partly over the glacis,
as the trench, which was the communication, ran
across the foot of it.

About ten o'clock a pasty arrived in one of
the batteries, for the purpose of removing four
guns ; they set off accordingly, but the night be-
ing very dark, and the road bad, the men did
not relish the work, especially as one was killed,
almost at the commencement, by a gun running
him against a wall, and squeezing his bowels out.
They began to grumble, and slipped off one by
one, till at last there were only men enough out
of 400 (the original number) to get one along,
instead of four. The officers could not see ten
_ _ _ _

yards, and they dared not use lights ; the men
took advantage of this, and went away to sleep
among the bushes. They could hardly be
blamed, as they had become so completely ex-
hausted during the siege, seldom having four
hours out of the twenty-four to themselves. So
few men remaining, -and it being impossible to
find them in the dark, an officer of artillery watt
sent to inform the general of the night, who was
in the convent with the in lying picquet. Happy
was the man who got this duty, as they generally
calculated on a little sleep. When the artillery
officer made his report, the General ordered the
picquet to rise and follow that officer. On
making known the duty, there was a little grum-
bling, the line not being fond of dragging guns ;
but the General promised an extra allowance of
grog, and a tour off' duty. The artillery officer
saying he would only require them for an hour
or two, they departed willingly. The guns were
brought down, and placed behind some ruined
houses below the convent. A large party started
across the sand-hills with the first gun ; the sand
was so deep, and the gun so heavy, a 24-
pounder, that it was necessary to place boards
under the wheels, to prevent its sinkirg too
deep.

Prom so many delays, the night had nearly
passed, and by the time the gun had got about
a quarter of the way, the dawn began to appear.
Never was it so unwelcome ; we were all sure of
being shot before sun-rise, and we still proceeded.
It was getting more and more light every step we
took ; hardly a word was spoken, except by 3.'ne
artillery officer and. men, who had to speak Por-
tuguese and English (the party being cr..,mposed
o(both, besides the drivers of some. 'bullocks))

We had thought for some time, diet when we
got to the trench our troubles would be over,
and that we could leave tho gun where it was, it
being out of the question to get it into the bat-
tery that day. Rut here was a fresh dilemma.
The gun-wheels were broader than the trench.
What was to be .;me ? It was broad day-light,
the French would not fire. We had no excuse
for runnina away ; we still kept whispering. The
men on duty in the trenches were some sleet:ll'lg
and some walking about, looking at us. Some
sand was thrown upon the gun, and up
, on the
tall artillery officer saying, " Now my lads, re-
turn to the other guns," all the party ran back
as fast as they could. Some unluay chaps gave
a shout as they ran, which 4woke the French
sentry ; in a moment a vp,Vpy of musquetry came
from all sides, but our party got safe under co-
ver without having a man hurt. The remaining
guns were no; got into the battery tilt

It may be useful to caution ourreaders against
the adoption, at all events to their full extent, of
the sanguine expectations indulged in by certain
of our contemporaries, in consequence of the
distinguished reception of the Ambassadors of
England and France at Constantinople. We
have been permitted to see the account given by
an intelligent eye-witness, who confirms all the
previous statements as to the external demon-
strations of satisfaction, and even of cordiality,
almost amounting to a violation of established
oriental etiquette, exhited on that occasion ; but
the same accurate observer does not attempt to
conceal his conviction that the difficulties in the
way of any thing approaching to a general paci-
fication appear at present almost insurmountable.
These difficulties are classed by the individual on
whose authority we give the statement, under
the heads of—the exorbitancy of the Russian
pretensions; the habitual and characteristic obsti-
nacy of the Turks ; and a third, which has hitherto
not been sufficiently taken into account—the cha-
racter and views of the Count Capo d'lstria, the
President of Greece. On the nature and extent
of the two first impediments it is unnecessary to
enlarge ; but a concise account of some late pro-
ceedings of the President will at once show the
difficulties of the position in which the Represent-
ativesof the Mediating Powers are placed, more
especially the Ambassador of England. A Pro.
dareation of Count Capo d'lstria, some time back,
declared a considerable portion of the coast of Con-
tinental Greece to be in a state of blockade. As
the ports thus laid under a nominal restriction
were precisely those with which the Seven
Islands maintained their most profitable inter-
course, commercial speculation was not to be
checked by what is called a paper blockade ; and
the President, finding his Proclamation ineffec-
tual, applied to the High Commissioner of the
lonian Islands, who did not think it necess ry
to interfere. Disappointed in that quart r,
the Count appealed to Mr. Gordon, our now.y.
accredited Ambassador to Constantinople, and
thus, at the very opening of the negotiation, in-
troduced a new and most embarrassing obstacle,
as it is perfectly well understood that the Porte
firmly and consistently rejects foreign interference
in its quarrels wither revolted subjects, as it
uniformly calls the Greeks, At the time the
account was written to which we have so often
referred, it was not known what line of conduct
Mr. Gordon would adopt in consequence of the
remonstrance of the Greek President ; but the
writer obviously leans to the pretty generally re-
ceived opinion, that M. Capo &Jane is at heart
too much of a Russian partisan, to be wholly in-
fluenced by a disinterested regard for the people
provisionally consigned to his superintendence
in this very unfortunately timed remonstrance.—
Morning Chronicle.
We have copied from the Dublin Morning
Register of Friday last, a Report of a Trial for
Libel—Smith against the Proprietor of the Con-
naught Journal--in the Court of King's
Bench,' Dublin, which occupied two days—
Wednesday and Thursday last. The Jury gave
ruinous damages, and it is intimated that the
defendant intends to move for a new trial. The
action was for three several libels. A Meeting
in Galway, on the subject which has so much
divided the people of Ireland, led to the libels.
The defendant first animadverted on the conduct

those who are good sons, good brothers, loving
husbands, careful and affectionate fathers, who
are honest in all their dealings, and who, before
all, attend regularly, carefully, and piously to
their religious duties." We do not say that
this was never said before, nor that it may not
have been as well said, but we believe it never
was said more opportunely ; and if it has the
weight which its own innate truth, and the in-
fluence the quarter it comes from possesses, it
may do more good to Ireland than any form of
words we are aware of, and deserves to be written

in legible characters over the door of every cabin
in the kingdom. But to cultivate the sound
principle here recommended, requires something
more than their mere solitary announcement, and
that for a purpose. Above all, if they are ex-
pected to derive weight, as they are calculated to
do, from the personal influence and character of
the individual who utters them, it is most essen-

tial to their success that every individual should
be consistent with himself, and that he should
not ruin to.morrow, by virulence and invective,
the seeds of peace which he has sown to-day.
It is cruel to trifle, as the feelings, the passions,
and the prejudices of the Irish people have been
trifled with. In proportion as we have warm
and inflammable materials to deal with, so should
we be cautious how we throw the firebrand
among them. This has been done much too
freely in their case ; and it will have been in vain
that principles so good and so•delightful as those
which we have quoted, are given utterance to, if

the cup is to Le dashed from their lips by the
same hand which has thus presented it to them.

Ccrrect notions upon the subject of our re-
lation with Portugal begin universally to pre-
vail, and a new instance is thus afforded us to
illustrate the certainty with which truth and jus-
tice always eventually triumph over falsehood
and delusion. The writers who were wont to
illuminate the columns of some of our contem-
poraries, have suddenly become silent, or ceased
at least to depict the reigning King of Portugal
as a monster in human shape, with whom all
intercourse must be disgraceful, and to represent
his Government as continually on the point of

It is scarcely necessary to direct the attention
of ourreaders to the proceedings of the parishio-
ners of Marylebone yesterday ; and yet we can-
not let slip the opportunity of expressing our sur-
prise, that an irresponsible body possessing the
power of taxing any portion of the community'
to the amount of 150,000/. per annum, or as
many more thousands as it chose to extract from
their pockets, should ever have been allowed to
exist in this country, and more especially in the
metropolis. It is one of those anomalies in a
country enjoying the full freedom of discussion,
which, we fear, are but too common here, but
for which a foreigner, only acquainted with the
theory of our Constitution, would be unable to ac-
count. So it is, however, that not one, but many,
self-constituted bodies do exist in the metropolis—
nay, in its wealthiest, if not also its most en-
lightened parish—which possess the power of
taxing the community to any extent, and of
spending their money in what manner they
please ! The community had, of course, reaped
the fruits of its submission and negligence ; and
we are not in the least surprised that during the
period from 1806 to 1828, the Marylebone
select have levied from that portion of the public
over which they possess dominion, a sum, as
stated at the Meeting, amounting to upwards of
Two and a Half Millions sterling ! The Select,
in fact, deserve, in our estimation, some grati-
tude for their forbearance in not exacting more ;
for, with such power as they are still invested,
they might as well have exacted Five Millions
as the sum with which they appear to
have been contented,—nay, have pocketed
the whole without any one being able to
detect the fraud. It is high time, how-
ever, that the Select Vestry system should be,
put an end to. There are no principles more
undoubted than that those who are taxed ought
to be made acquainted with the manner in which
their money is expended, or that wherever unli-
mited and irresponsible power is lodged, unli-
mited negligence, waste, jobbing, aye, and per-
haps peculation, will be the consequence. We
do not affirm that any or either of these things
have happened in ivlarylebone ; but the mere
possession of the power leads to suspicion, and,
for the sake of all parties, we trust that the sys-
tern will be put an end to, and the election of
Vestrymen rendered in future as free and open
as that of a Member to serve for Westminster.

torney. The action for seducing Mr. Ashton's
daughter was tried during the sittings after Hilary
Term last, and the verdict was 1001. besides costs;
it was tried in the Court of Common Pleas, and
was undefended. A rule nisi and a rule absolute
had since been obtained by the insolvent's attorney,
for a new trial, but the new trial had not been pro-
ceeded in. Witness produced a letter written by
Mr. Corner, insolvent's attorney, dated December 2,
stating that he (Mr. Corner) was instructed to make
every exertion to resist the action, but to offer first

to pay the costs up to that time, as well as to pay
M. for the accouchement of Miss Ashton, and ss. a
week to support the child.
Cross-examined.—The insolvent's attorney offered
witness the costs of the action, but judgment had
been entered up.
_

Mr. ADounius addressed the Court on behalf of
the opposing creditor, and submitted that this case
came within the provisions of the 49th section of
the Act of Parliament in two ways—first, for
having, as was proved by the verdict, seduced the
daughter of Mr. Ashton ; and next, for having put
Mr. Ashton to the expense of a trial at nisi Arius,
after a letter, written by the insolvent's attorney,
admitting the commission of the offence of seduc-
tion. If the insolvent were in possession of only
80/. a year, with that, and the hopes of advance-
ment, he ought to have behaved even with common
honesty, and have married the female whom he had
so much injured ; instead of which, up to the lust
moment, he had refused to do any act towards re-
pairing the mischief he had occasioned.
Mr. Commissioner BowEN said, the Court had,
in the case of Marsh, laid down, that in all cases
of this kind the question of damages, and the situ-
ation of the parties, should alone be considered. In
that case the defence was similar to this—viz. that
the verdict was obtained by fraud, but the Court
thought they could not enter into that point. The
damages there were considerable, and so was the
remand. Acting upon that rule, the judgment of
the Court was, that the insolvent should be re-
manded for a period of six months from the date of
filing his petition, at the suit of William Ashton,
who had recovered damages for seducing his
daughter.
