CIRCULAR.

WAR-OFFICE, JAN. 14, 1829.

SlR,—Several applications, founded en the pro-
posed Reduction of the Militia Staff, having been
made to me, respecting the discharge of Serjeants,
I have the honour to acquaint you, that as the ex-
tent to which the Reduction shall be carried into
effect will depend upon the determination of Parlia-
ment, it will be advisable that no Serjeanta should
be discharged until such determination shall have
been announced.

And as the claims of the Serjeants to be pensioned
are made to depend, not only upo❑ length of 'ervice,
but unfitness and infirmity, resulting from military
duty, it will be essential to ascertain, before they
are discharged, whether their cases can be brought
tithing the regulations under which Militia Pensions
are granted.
I take this opportunity of informing you, that the
clothing due on the 25th ult. is to be supplied for
the number of Non-Commissioned Officers and
Drummers intended to be retained ; and that those
whose reduction is contemplated will be considered
as entitled to compensation to the date of their dis.
charge

I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your most obedient Servant,
11. HARDINGE.

To the Colonels of Militia.

The Bishop of London and Lord Farnbo-
rough visited the Duke of Wellington yesterday.

Yesterday the Lord Alayor gave a splendid
entertainment to the Duke of Wellington, and others of
the Nobility, at the Mansion-house. Several apologies
were seat to his Lordship, in consequence of prior engage-
ments to his Royal Highness the Duke of Clarence, who
entertained the young Queen of Portugal, and a large party
of the first ranks. At half-past six the company began to
arrive at the Mansion-house : amongst them were—Lord
Melville, Lord Lowther, Lord Ashley, Lord Eliot, the
Bishop of Idandaff, the Speaker of the House of Commons,
the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Sir Henry Hardinge,
M.P., the Vice-Chancellor, Lord Chief Justice Best; Mr.
Justice Park, Mr. Baron Vaughan, Mr. Justice Bayley,
Justice Sir J. Parke, Mr. Holmes, M.P. Mr. G. Bankes,
M.P., Mr. Planta, Mr. Dawson, M.P., Mr.
Horace Twiss, M.P., the Governor and Deputy-Governor
.f the Bank of England, the Chairman and Deputy Chair-
man of the Last India Company, Mr. Rothschild, and
several others of both Houses of Parliament. Most of the
Aldermen were of the company.

SACRED Mustc.—Yesterday evening Mr.
'Mather, the Organist of St. Bride's Church, Fleet-street,
performed a selection of sacred music on the organ, ac-
cording to annual custom, consisting of several of the
finest compositions of Handel, Haydn, Mozart, Bach, tv.c.
all of which were executed with much taste. In the se-
cond part he introduced an extempore fantasia, which was
admirably adapted to display the powers of the instrument
and the science of the performer. The scanner in which
the airs were given was peculiarly striking, the vocal parts
tieing performed on the cremossa stop, the accompaniments
no other stops, while the basses 6..-ere played by the pedals,
the whole producing an orchestral effect. In a few of the
pieces Mr. Mather was assisted by his pupil, Mr. Brown,
the organist of St. Clement's Danes. The entire was a
musical treat of great excellence, and excited the 'Atli.
vided admiration of all who were in the Church, which
bras crowded in every part.

SPRING OF PURE WATEB.-" Pcploring
this forenoon the vicinity of Monte Pala'im I discovered
in an obscure corner, near the Temple of Romulus, the
time-balloted spring of Juturna, rising with crystal clew -
ness near the CloacapMaxima, into which it flows unvalued
and forgotten. I refreshed myseif in the mid-day beat by
drinking its pure lymph from the hulloes of my hand, and
gazed with long and insatiable delight upon the memorable
fountain. This ...acted spot is sorraunded and ()to:eared by
contiguous buililintts, and the walls are luxuriantly fringed
with movies, lichens, and broad-leaveil ivy. The proud
Aqueducts of tke expanding city diminish the value and im-
portance of this spring ; but it was unquestionaVy the
ruling motive which determined Romulus, or possibly an
earlier colony of Greeks, to take root here, as within the
wide compass of the Roman walls there is no other source
cff pure water.—Blackwoorrs Magazine.

crisis, when they have at least doubled their
population and their wealth ; have grown to a
full knowledge of their own vast resources ; hate

national confederacy, active, indignant, and en-

The speech of Lord MORLEY was followed
by one of nearly equal merit, from Lord EBRING-
TON, who viewed the question as a sound prac-
tical logician, and drew the matter for his argu-
ment from the storehouse af his own experience:
He broadly stated that, unless Emancipation were
conceded, a separation between England and Ire-
land must ensue ; and justly added, that as he
had a stake in both countries, his remarks were
entitled to some consideration.
Sir THOMASLETHBRIDGE—that mirror of
intellect and liberality—then presented himself,
and made the same impression on the Meeting
that he usually makes on the House of Com-
mons. As a matter of course he was received
with universal laughter, with difficulty smothered
by the Brunswickers, and unequivocally indulged
in by the Liberals. Happy man !7--whose elo-
quence an &aria faction of its sting, and raise
a smile on the face of hatred itself.—“ Felix hen

The meeting—notwithstanding the impatience
of the Brunswickers to come to a decision-4as
not at an end till dark, when the Orange mob,
who had been duly hired, packed up, and ticket-
ted for the occasion, returned
,to their own
homes, delighted no doubt with the victory they
had achieved over an enemy they knew not
whom, and upon principles with which they were
equally well acquainted. So ended the Devon
Anti-Catholic Meeting—the grand apotheosis
of intolerance !

By his MAJESTY'S brig Frolic, we have re-
ceivedeTrinidad Papers to the 29th November,
and Barbadoes of the 2d December. The Go-
vernor of the island of St. Thomas's had, under
date of the Ist of that month, issued a. proclama-
tion, offering a reward of 500 pieces .of eight. for
the apprehension of STEPHEN CABOT and JOHN
WILLIAM SEIAW, who composed the firm of
CABOT and Co:, accused of co-operation, and
fining out the piratical schooner Las Damas
Argentinas. There are some interesting parti-
culars in these Papers of the capture of Guiria,
a place on the opposite part of the South A me-
, rican Main, belonging to ColOmbia, between
which much trade had formerly been carried
on by a band of rebels, who had been lately
banished from the Main, and were allowed most
injudiciously an asylum in Trinidad. Genera
BERMUDEZ,' however, who had on a former oc-
casion dispersed these brigands, after they had
kept the province of Cumana in continual alarm,
was on his march against them with a large force.
A large armed schooner and a flechera had ar-
rived at Guiria from Cumana, upon the approach
of which, it is said, the chief rebel CASTELLO,
and a few of his followers, had retreated into the
woods.

Accounts from the Havannah of the 28th
Nov. state, that Admiral LABORDE, with his
division of two sail of the line, four frigates, and
several brigs, was still at anchor in the roads ;
one ship and a frigate were on the eve of sailing,
to cruize near Belize, where a pirate of great
force had appeared.

The foolish enactments of the law, and the
still more witless manner in which they are
executed, have prevented the students of Anatomy
from ()braining any other subjects for their scien:
tifie researches than those which are raised from
the grave. It is plain that so revoking and
dangerous a task will be undertaken by the most
reckless and desperate persons only, and hence
arises the much-lamented connection between
the teacher of Anatomy and the Resurrection-
man. But it is strange that there should be any
persons who imagine that any direct intercourse
can possibly exist between per Sons so highly re-
spected and respectable as the teachers of
Anatomy, and the worthless ruffians who carry
on the trade in dead bodies. A middleman,
called a porter, is attached to all dissecting-
rooms, and by him all the orders for dead bodies
given and pll the bargains made. The porter
sells the dead body to'the lecturer or his pupils,
who are as ignorant of the source whence the
subjects are derived as any person not pursuing
the study of Anatomy can he. It is foolish to
say that they ought to inquire. We have no
hesitation in saying that, unless under circum-
stances of- well grounded suspicion, they ought
not to inquire. Such questions would connect
the Anatomist more deeply with a disgusting and

illicit trade than he now unhappily is. They SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE--(T Ills DAY.)

with impunity ? Certainly not. But the remedy
must be found by the Government. Medical
men have done what medical men could do, by
pointing out the remedy which their acquaintance
with the facts led them to think the preferable one.

The public is much deceived in thinking
physicians and surgeons peculiarly interested in
his question. They are no otherwise interested
than other membe►:s of the community. Subjects
they must have, subjects they will have, but they
well know that by offering a larger sum they will
obtain subjects, notwithstanding the severest
enactments which the Legislature could enforce.
Such demons as BURKE will always be found,
who, in spite of all fear here and hereafter, will find
dead bodies either by raising them or by making
them. There is scarcely a Newgate calendar
which does notprove that murders are committed
for much smaller sums than those given for dead
bodies. Medical men also know, that if they
are prevented from pursuing the study of Anatomy,
though much more imperfect practitioners, their
seivicts will be not less necessary to the sick.
The difference to the public will be thA instead
of cutting up the dead they will dissect the
living. Let society look to it.
It is vain to deny it. The Government alone is
responsible for all the confusion and crime which
have agitated and alarmed the public mind. The
Government received full and fair warning ; the
very crimes which have taken place were pre-
dicted long ago; the probability of their occurrence
was admitted on all hands, yet what has the
Government done ? Has any one step been
taken in the way of prevention ? Even at this
moment it is more than probable that the in-
fernal monsters who pursue this trade of blood,

have seduced sonic deluded and innocent victim
within their dark abode of horrors—yet even now

the Government pursues its old beaten path of
temporising and delay. Mr. PEEL receives de-
putation after deputation with great affability
and attention, promises consideration of the
case, and does nothing.
There is but one remedy—it has been pointed
out a hundred times—make bodies cheap ; make
them worthless, by surrendering to the dissector
the unclaimed remains of all those who die in
the poor-houses, the hulks, the prisons, and the
hospitals. The trade of the resurrection-man
will thus be ruined, and the most desperate cha-
racters of the metropolis cease to have a point :of
contact with the most humane and benevolent ;
but to effect this we must have a Home Secre-
tary who is not afraid to do his duty.

THE FUNDS.--(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELYR 0' CLOCK.

A more marked improvement has taken place this
mottling in the state of the English Funds, attended
with an advance of per cent. in the price. Corsols
opened this morning at 871 Y for to-morrow, they
continued for some time at this rate, but are now
87i I, for money 85i 6, and for February 87k,

India Bonds and Exchequer Bills are a little better,
the former being 65 8, and the latter, 65 7 pm.
In the Foreign Funds every thing is nominally the
same as they have been for these few days past, and

the house seems almost deserted ; Greek stock, how-
ever, seems on the decline, being 15i 16. Below
are the quotations.
Shares remain without alteration or business.

It is with great regret we have to notice a further,
instance of the now too prevalent occurrences of
persons fraudulently absconding ; another took place
yesterday by a person in the confidence of a highly
respectable gentleman in the City, by which:u loss
of 1,3001. will, it is said, be suffered. The offender
is stated to be as yet undiscovered, but surely some
measures for the punishment of these crimes is abso-

Extract of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's, at
Tortola, dated Dec. 8 :----" I cannot omit the great
and unremitting eze►tions of his Danish Majesty's
Government to detect and suppress the abominable
acts of piracy by which the mercantile interests of
all nations has suffered so much. In addition to the
two brigs of war another vessel has been fitted out in
St. Thomas's, to eruize after pirates. On Friday
last, the two brigs anchored at this port to obtain
information of me respecting piratical vessels. Yes-
terday his Majesty's brig Icarus anchored here, in
consequence of information which I had given our
Commander-in-Chief of three suspicious schooners
and two brigs, which had been hovering for 12 or 14
days' about the Island."

The Marquis of Anglesea'a family is one of
the oldest and most illustrious in England. The title of
Baron was conferred upon the family in l VA, since which
time honours have accumulated upon it. Lord Anglesea,
by family kindred or the intermarriage of his Lordship's
relatives, is a connection of the Dukes of Argyle, Mail-
borough, and Richmond ; the Marquises of Conyngbant,
Btandford, and Donegal ; the Earls of Jersey, MorleY,
Besberough, Galloway, Cudogan, Mount-Charles, West-
morland, and Dartmouth ; and Lords Graves,
Feversharn, Duncanson, Burghersb, Bagot, and several
uther Noblemen. One of the Marquis's daughters is mar-
ried to the Earl of 11Iountcharles, son to the Marquis of
Conyngham ; another daughter is married to the Duke of
Ricbmond.—Dtcblin Freeman', Journal.
