STAte OF RICHARD LABIBOURN.

Richard Lamhourn Was received into Guy's Hos-
at nine✓ o'clock yesterday morning, in a very
exhausted state of body, and evincing 'the utmost

wretchedness of mind. lie was alive last evning,
and there are yet hopes entertained that he may re-
cover.
During the day, at intervals, he groaned bitterly,
more from his anguished state of mind than from
any bodily torture, which his wtunds produced.
No disclosures were required of him, and the sur-
geons attended him with the very utmost care. He
took some partial nourishment, and slept about one
hour. He was in precisely the same state at eight
o'clock last evening and, probably, may live some
(lays. His age is about sixty. The certificate :of
his marriage, a letter, and other papers, were taken
from hint at Blackheath.

CIRCULAR.

THE ARMY.

WAR-OITICE, JUNE 26, 1829.

am directed by the Secretary at War to
send herewith a Memorandum, explaining certain
points necessary to be attended to by persons claim-
ing allowances from the Compassionate Fund, and
have to request, that before you transmit to this
office any applcation on behalf of a deceased Of-
ficer's Children, you will communicate the particulars
contained in the Memorandum to their mother, or
other relative who has charge of them, in order that
they may have an opportunity of considering whether
the circumstances of the children are such as would,
or would not, prevent their making the affidavits
that would be required for the issue of any allowance
that might be granted.--4 am, Sir, your most obe-
dient humble servant,
To Army Agents. L. £ULIVAN.

MEMORANDUM FOPS TUE INFORMATION OF rEnsor:s

CLAIMING ALLOWANCES FROM THE COMPASSIONATE

FUND.

The purpose for which allowances from the Com-
passionate Fund are granted is to afford some relief
to the children of deceased officers, who, during
infancy, and the early part of their lives, are in cir-
cumstances of great pecuniary distress, and are totally
incapable of maintaining themselves.
The Compassionate Fund is limited in amount,
and is inadequate to meet all- the claims that are
made upon it : and, therefore, in distributing the
savings which from time to time'occur, the claims
will be considered in reference to the services of the
officer, and the duty on which he was employed
when he died, and the strongest cases of compassion
will be selected, to replace those which mny have
been discontinued.

The oath required to be taken by the mother or
guardian of children on the Compassionate list is to
the following effect, viz., that they are the legitimate
children of the deceased officer; that they have no
other allowance, pension, or provision from the Go-
vernment, either of Great Britain or Ireland; that
their pecuniary circumstances, and those of their
family, are so limited that they actually require
assistance from the Compassionate Fund; and in the
case of males, that they are not 18 years of age ;
and in the case of females, that they are not 21 years
of age, and are not married.

The parties who would be required to make the
oath, in the event of any allowance being granted,
should therefore consider, before they make applica-
tion, whether the pecuniary circumstances of the
children, and those of their family, are so limited
that they actually require the assistance claimed.
All applications for compassionate allowances
should state the situation in which the children are
left, and their means of support, and should be ac-
companied by a list of the names and dates of birth
of the children, and extracts from the Baptismal
Registers ; and also by a recommendation from some
officer of rank, or person of respectability, who has
a sufficient knowledge of the case, to be able to
certify that the children can, with propriety, be
relieved from a fund established for compassionate
purposes.
