COURT MARTIAL.

Horse Guards, Monday, Sept. 25.—The pro-
ceedings of the Court Martial on Lieutenant-
Colonel ST. GEORGE FRENCH, Of the 6th Dragoon
Guards, were resumed this day, pursuant to ad-
journment on Friday last. The Earl of CAR-
HAMPTON was present. Lieut.-Colonel FRENCH
read his defence to thp charges', and examined
several witnesses in support of it.. At four
o'clock, having closed his case, the Court ad-
journed until eleven o'clock on Wednesday next,
at the request of the Earl of CARHAMPTON, for
the purpose of giving the Noble Earl time to
prepare his reply.—The Court was crowded to
excess.

Yesterday (Friday, 22d inst.) arrived the John
transport, Lieutenant Church, Agent, from Ire-
land, last from Plymouth. She carried the head-
quarteni of the 9th Royal Veterans from Ireland
to Plymouth, and brought a detachment of the
Battalion (namely, '273 men, 180 women, and
160 children) to do garrison duty at Portsmouth
and Gosport. -
In passing Cowes they came within hail of the
Royal Yacht, and his Majesty being on deck, the
troops on board the John were formed, the yards
manned, and they gave the King three times
three 'hearty cheers, Which he condescendingly
acknowledged.—(Portsmouth Paper.)
The transports ordered to take the 81st regi-
ment from Ireland to Halifax, and bring home
the 15th Foot, have received counter orders.—
( Idem.).
The 90th regiment which arrived here last
week, are under orders for the Mediterranean.
The 9th Royal Veteran Battalion, from Cork,
are stationed at the Long Room barracks, Stone-
house.—(-Plymouth Chronicle.)
On Tuesday evening (the 19th inst.) the de-
pots of the 47th, 65th, and 67th Regiments,
marched into this garrison from Albany, in the
Isle of Wight._( Winchester Journal.) .
The march of the 19th Regiment, from this
garrison, has been delayed, in consequence of
many of the officers being required to attend the
Court Martial on Capt. Cairne, at Portsmouth.
It isexpected they will march on Monday, the
25th inst.—(ldem.)
Yesterday evening (Tuesday the •19th instant)
the first division of the 81st regiment marched
into Fermoy Barracks, and will be followed by
the remainder on this and the succeeding days.
The Regiment will reniain at Fermoy until the
transports which are to- convey them to Canada
arrive in our harbour, where they are daily ex-
, pected with the 33(1` Regiment from England.—
, (Cork, Mercantile Chronicle.)

It must be very gratifying to every one inte
rested in the prosperity of the port of Sunder-
land, to see the exertions which are made to es-
tablish in that populous District a Dispensary
for the Relief of the Labouring Classes. We do
not know where institutions of this nature are
likely to be attended with such beneficial effects
as in a Sea-port possessing such an extent of
shipping as Sunderland. •
CORN EXCHANGE, SEPT. 27.-1 n addition to a
large quantity of new Wheat, which remained
over from Monday's Market, we had several
fresh arrivals from Suffolk this morning, but the
demand being trifling, very few sales could ;be
made, although the finest qualities were offered
at an abatement of from is. to .2s. per quarter;
we had a fair supply of Barley from Suffolk,
which met heavy sale, even of the finest samples,
at Monday's prices, but the ordinary qualities
are Is. per quarter lower; Oats sold freely on
full as good terms as on Monday, in consequence
of the certainly of the Ports shutting this week
against the importation of this article from the
Ports between the Eyder and Bedassou ; in Beans
and Peas no alteration.
Ma. WAKELEY.-This Gentleman, who,

will be remembered, was recently said to
been attacked by some villains at his house.
Argyll-street, complains that some malignal
slanderers have represented him to be the per.
son who decapitated Thistlewood. lie has in
consequence written to Mr. Sheriff PARKiNs,
who states, in answer, that the operator at the
execution was not more than five feet five or six
inches in height, whereas Mr. WAKELEy is at
least five feet ten.
Miss S. BOOTIL—This fascinating actress,
after having concluded a great variety of engage-
ments in Ireland and Scotland, returned to Liver-
pool, to fulfil an engagement with the Manager
of that Theatre. Miss BOOTH next proceeded
to Shrewsbury, where she performed during the
race week, to overflowing and delighted houses,
and concluded her engagement there on Satur-
day last with her own benefit, which was a
bumper.

On the late Charlfe against Mr. KEAN.
(From The 'Theatrical _Evening- Mirror.)
KEAN is accused, and this is certain,
Of acting ill behind the curtain ;
But let's forgive him, I implore it,
lie has not acted ill before it.
