SINDE.

Our Sinde news down to the 26th ult. informs us that
Colonel Moseley's court•msrtial was expected to com-
mence about the beginning of this month, and we are
told that Captain Flyter is placed in arrest, and is to be
tried also ; and it is also reported that Sir C. Napier in-
tends bringing both the commandants of her Majesty's
13th. and 78th Regiments to trial on account of the escape
of nine of the condemned men from the custody of the
former corps, and one (the last tried) from that of the
latter. • _ _

Letters from Sinde still speak of the fearful sickness
raging there. The 7th Cavalry are stated to have but
15 men fit for duty, the troop of Horse Artillery but
eight or nine, and the 69th Regiment about 200 ; how-
ever, as the bad season is now over, it is to be hoped the
Europeans, as well as natives, will rapidly improve in
health.

(From the Bengal Hurkaru.)
The officers who are to sit on the General Court-
martial for the trial of Colonel Moseley have been named
by Sir Charles Napier. They are—Major-General
Simpson, her Majesty's 29th Foot, second in command
in Sinde, President ; Lieutenant-Colonel Douglas, Bri-
gadier Commanding at Kurachee, her Majesty's 78th
Foot ; Lieutenant-Colonel Schuler, Bombay Artillery ;
Lieutenant-Colonel Aplin, her Majesty's 86th Foot ;
Lieut.-Colonel Reid. 12th Bombay Infantry ; Lient.-Col.
Woodburn, 25th Bombay Infantry ; Major Creagh,
her Majeslr's 86th Foot ; Major Twopeny, her
Majesty s 78th Foot ; Major Corsellis, 13th Bombay
Infantry ; Major Phillips, 7th Bengal Light Cavalry ;
Major Macau, 17th Bombay Infantry; Major Vassal, her
Majesty's 78th Foot ; Major Wilton, 4th Bengal In-
fantry ; Major Kennett. 13th Bombay Infantry ; Major
Lowth, her Majesty's 86th Foot • Major Richards, Bth
Bombay Infantry ; and Major Sidley, her Majesty's 86th
Foot ; members-16 field officers, with a general officer
as President ; 17 in all, Captain Lamert, of her Ma-
jesty's 78th Highlanders, is to officiate as Judge-Advo-
cate-General. A steimer was to be in readiness at
Kotree on the 28th, for the accommodation of all the
members from Kurachee and Hyderabad. From this
we infer that the court cannot very well assemble before
the 12th or 15th proximo. It is possible we May be
furnished with an outline, or perhaps, a copy of the
charges brought against Colonel Moseley for our next
issue. We hear that they bear chiefly on the alleged
concealments regarding the state of his corps. Not one
of the convict-mutineers of the 64th who escaped from
the quarter-guard of her Majesty's 13th Light Infantry,

SIMMONDS'S COLONIAL MAGAZINE.

The most readable article in the January Number
of this Magazine is an account of " Australia, Past,

ILLUMINATED MAGAZINE.

Our usual magazine notices have unawares ex-
tended to such a length and encroached so much on
our space, that we are compelled to be brief in our
account of this periodical. The Number, on the
whole, is a good one, but its chief recommendations
are to be found in its illustrations, some of which are
as highly finished as the most fastidious amateur of
the Fine Arts could desire. " Our Christmas Dream"
is particularly clever, to say nothing of its seasonable-
ness, and represents a jolly, good-natured fellow fast
asleep in his arm-chair, while punch-bowls, prize
oxen, mince pies, sirloins of beef, plum puddings, and
a host of similar Christmas emblems are dancing on the
trays in glorious confusion before him. This plate is
very much in Cruickshank's manner, and is every way
worthy of that master of the grotesque and the familiar.
Among the cleverest literary articles is an essay on
"The Influence of Education on the Wear and
Tear of Life." As a specimen of the poetry of the
Illuminated Magazine, we subjoin Mr. Wade's
" Hymn to the New Year," chiefly, however, on
account of the seasonableness of the subject, for it is
by no means remarkably brilliant either in thought or
expression :
" Another course the horses of the sun
Along the viewless zodiac have run,
And all but to commence
Their varied journey o'er again:—
Their hope of resting may be vain,
For many a cycle hence!
" Their task began with young creation's dawn,—
The chariot of their ruler they have drawn
Up to this passing hour—
And through the long eternity,
Just like a river to its sea,
Shall be their onward power—
" A power that scorns the whirlwind's noisy wrath,
And e'en o'ertakes the lightning in its path,
Slow creeper though it be—
Time is a tortoise that will find
His way and leave far—far behind
All other rivalry!
" O'er aged cities bath he swept his wings—
Entombed in dust the purple pride of kings,
And chronicled a few.
But on he goes, all careless still—
Much less inclined to cure than kill,
Or give desert its duel
" Yes! time's a canker, a most slow disease,
Whose cravings not an antidote can please;—
There is no cautery
To sear and heal the wounds he makes—
He has no thought for others' sakes—
A selfish thing is he!
" Another year! how many hearts unborn,
And hopes unblossomed yet or on the thorn
Of sharp anxiety,
Will in thy course spring up or fade—
How many a cheek shall be decayed,
And ling'ring—ling'ring die!
" But let us trust that, coming year! thoul't bring
The promise of ripe Summer on thy wing,
And. like the almond trees,
Give us good token of thy fruit
By blossoms, that ere leaves can shoot,
Will scent the wandering breeze!"

LONDON, THURSDAY, JANUARY 2, 1845

The opening of a new year—a solemn event to all
endowed with faculties of reflection and who exercise
those faculties in a right spirit—gives us the oppor-
tunity of saying a few words respecting the year which
has just passed away, and that which but a few
hours since broke upon us in the silence and solitude
cfmidnight. In casting a retrospective glance over
the political proceedings that took place in 1844, if
there he no very great reason for congratulation,
neither is there for discouragement nor despondency
The important public questions of education,
of the condition of the labouring poor in the
manufacturing as well as in the agricultural
districts, of free trade, of legal and ecclesiastical
reforms, of the adoption of amore liberal and conci-

NEW EDINBURGH REVIEW.

Though the title of this Review is somewhat too
ambitious, yet it is by no means devoid of literary
merit, and the January Number is a manifest im-
provement on its predecessor. Among the articles
we find an ingenious essay on the subject of the
" Protestant Reformation," and the causes by which
it was more immediately brought about, in the course
of which essay the writer justly remarks that the
aristocracy benefited most by the great change in
the national religion, obtaining not only the political
power of the high ecclesiastics, but the chief portion
of the abbey lands, with the numerous benefices and
tithes pertaining to them. The account of " Texas,
its Settlement, Resources, and Prospects "—some
hints for which have been derived from Mr. Ken-
nedy's able work on the subject—will be read with
interest, as this colony is daily more and more at-
tracting the attention of Europeans.

BOW-STREET.

Samuel Gregory, a person whose manner indicated a
great degree of excitement, was placed at the bar before
Mr. Jardine, on Tuesday, charged with having broken
plate-glass worth 101., at the lhouse of Mr. Canton, the
dentist, in St. Martin's-lane.
Mr. Davis, a solicitor, stated that he was at Mr.
Canton's house on Monday evening, when the prisoner
came and asked for Mr. Feargus O'Connor. lie told
him that that gentleman dtd not lire there, and he went
away. Presently he came again, and was again in-
formed that Mr. O'Connor did not live there. After
some hesitation he went away, and witness went up stairs
to the drawing-room. But he had scarcely got to the
top of the stairs when he found that the prisoner had
followed him.• He again asked for Mr. O'Connor, and
appeared disposed to persist in saying that ha did lire
there. Mr. Davis said, "I told you before that he did
not live here ;" and after some hesitation the prisoner
went down, but just as he had got outside the door, and
Mr. Davis was about to shut it, he turned round and
smashed the glass to atoms.
Mr. Ji,nriasE asked the prisoner what he had to say to
the charge ?
Prisoner—Your worship means, have I any extenu-
ating circumstances to relate ?

JARDINE.—I ask you generally if you have any-
thing to say in ewplanation of having broken the glass ?
Prisoner—Oh, decidedly. In the first place, I beg to
say I have not the means of paying so large a sum as
104 i some smaller sum, perhaps, I might pay. If I
had known what I had been about, of course I should
not have done what I did, so far, at least, as worldly
prudence is concerned. I should also tell your worship
that j hgve had no sleep for many nights past, in con•
sequence of tile 4nnoyance I have experienced from Mr.
O'Connor and several other riotous persons making a
disturbance about my apartments. From that cause I
have had nu bleep for the last six nights ; what little I
have had was one afternoon—during the day timp. Now
that, as your worship must be well aware, makes a great
difference in the bearing of a person, and gives the ima-
gination a great predomination over the judgment. That
being
explanation of my conjugt ; but, perhaps your worship
the ease, I dare say I shall not give a very good
would rather that I should give eten a i•sid P*PiktPt4on
that none at all.—(A laugh.)

" THE RULING PASSION STRONG IN DEATH."
, held an inquest,
Yesterday afternoon Mr. Wakley, m.p.
a tthe Flag and Lamb, Clerkenwell-green, on the body of Frances Gardiner. It appeared that the &ceased was
greatly addicted to drink, and that she frequently almost
deprived herself of the commonest necessaries in order
that she might fully indulge her propersity for ardent
liquors. Her husband, who is a most abstemious man,
returned home on the night of the 28th of last month,
when he found her drunk, and craving for more drink.
In order to get her to bed he gave her rum. Upon
awaking in the morning ho found her a corpse at his
side. Verdict, " Natural death." Mr. Wakley said
that he lately held an inquest upon a lady inordinately
given to drink. Her medical attendants informed her
husband that she could not live without drink, but that
drink would kill her. The husband, of the two evils,
chose what to him appeared the lesser, as it secured him
peace, and gave her whir. drink she desired. In two
!months she drank 137 bocilei of port wino and brandy,
exclusive of malt liquors. She shortly afterwards was
seised with mortal sickness, and such was her craving for
drink, even in the agonies of death, that her attendants
were .compelled to keep constantly in her mouth a rag
saturated with brandy.

SuN, Nov. 14, 1844.

, .
This work has now reached its forty-sixth annual publication,
and latterly it has been brought out on such a comprehensive, oor.
rect, and extensive system, that it has driven all competitors from
the field.

The " Postal Directory," which has been compiled with great
care, furnishes complete instruction as to the dispatch of letters
and newspapers to all parts of the world ; and the list of the princi-
pal places in England and Wales has been greatly enlarged.
There is also a useful notice respecting the obliterating stamps
used at the post-office, with the list of the towns and the respective
figures prefixed, which shows at once the place where the letter is
posted, and thereby remedies a very common defect—the illegibility
of the country post-office mark of the town.
Besides these, there are several other improvements which
contribute materially to the convenience of consulting a work se
multifarious, and which contains not fewer than 1,980 pages of
close, but very distinct, letter.press. This Directory is, perhaps,
the most complete manual of the kind ever published.
London, England, 1845-01-02

SPORTIAG MAGAZINE.

We have here two engravings—one a portrait of
Flush, a famous sporting holding a dead partridge
in his mouth ; and the other representing a hunting
scene over a fine open tract of country, with a refrac-
tory horse in the foreground, whom his rider is in vain
endeavouring to lead over a hedge, at which the ani-
mal has most unceremoniously stopped short. Both
engravings are well executed. The literary depart-
ment of the Magazine is neither better nor worse than
usual.

We have alio advices from Sydney to the 4th of Sep-
tember, which are, probably, later than any which
will hare reached England before the arrival of the
present mail. The colonies were slowly—very
slowly—reviving. Great distress prevailed among
the operative classes, and a public meeting had been
held to memorialise the Government to take their case
into consideration. The October mail from England
has not yet arrived. The first intelligence is expected
by the Hindostan early in next week. The passenger
ships have been flocking in since our last, the
Monarch, the Owen Glendower, the Southampton,
and others having made their appearance.

RUSSIAN RAILWAYS.—A letter from St. rote"'
burgh, of December 4, states that the Emperor having
ordered the Minister of the Interior to urge on to!
works of the railroad between that city and Ifoscon',
ready commenced on the St. Petersburgh side, a collo'
derable number of additional workmen have been put
on, and measures taken for the commencement of the'
works at the Moscow end. It is even said that thee
works are to be pursued by torchlight. In all prohnci
bility the part of this line between St. Petersburgh In
Novogorod (180 verste) will be completed about the be'
ginning of next autumn.
An application was made on Saturday to the
Civil Tribunal of the Seine, on the part of an English-
man named Cottrell, to compel Mr. Harvy Leach, wbo
has been exhibiting the children of Cottrell at the thea"°
of the Bazaar Bonne-Nouvelle, to surrender theta 11:
their father, who, being a roor man, had agreed
Leach for a certain sum to allow his children to proceed'
from London to Paris, and to perform for hint ate.
theatre where he could obtain an engagement. 1m"
ground of the application for restitution was ill-treat-
ment of the children on the part of Leach. The apPlidv
~, tion was resisted, on the ground of the parties being hal'
foreigners, and therefore not liable to the jurisdiction' °»
a ..erench Court • but this was overruled, and the Presi'
dennt ordered the immediate restitution of the children,
with the clothes belonging to them. It transpired, W-
eyer, that although the defendant had pleaded the incom-
petence of the tribunal, he had in reality already surfer'"
dered the children to their father, with a portion of the
effects.—Gatignani.

UNITED SERVICE MAGAZINE.

Foremost among the articles in the Number before
us is a discussion on the " Social Wrongs of the
Soldier," whom the writer most erroneously states as
becoming " an outcast from the affections and the
respect of civilians " the instant he engages to serve
her Majesty in the army. We are not aware that
this is the case ; on the contrary, we are firmly of
opinion that the military man is invariably treated
with respect by the people so long as he maintains a
peaceable and conciliatory demeanour. " Reminis-
cences of a French Prison " contain one or two
striking incidents, and will remind the reader of the
admirable sketch of the interior of a French provin-
cial Newgate, in Captain Marryatt's first and best
tale of " Peter Simple." We have no space for

tried also ; and it is also reported that Sir C. Napier in-
tends bringing both the commandants of her Majesty's
13th and 78th Regiments to trial on account of the escape
of nine of the condemned men from the custody of the
former corps, and one (the last tried) from that of the
latter. _ _

Letters from Sinde still speak of the fearful sickness
raging there. The 7th Cavalry are stated to have but
15 men fit for duty, the troop of Horse Artillery but
eight or nine, and the 69th Regiment about 200 ; how-
ever, as the bad season is now over, it is to be hoped the
Europeans, as well as natives, will rapidly improve in
health. _ _ _

(From the Bengal Ilurharu.)
The officers who aro to sit on the General Ceurt-
martial for the trial of Colonel Moseley have been named
by Sir Charles Napier. They are—Major-General
Simpson, her Majesty's 29th Foot, second in command
in Sinde, President ; Lieutenant-Colonel Douglas, Bri-
gadier Commanding at Kurachee, her Majesty's 78th
Foot ; Lieutenant-Colonel Schuler, Bombay Artillery ;
Lieutenant-Colonel Aplin, her Majesty's 86th Foot ;
Lieut.-Colonel Reid, 12th Bombay Infantry ; Lieut.-Col.
Woodburn, 25th Bombay Infantry ; Major Creagh,
her Majesty's 86th Foot ; Major Twopeny, her
Majesty's 78th Foot • Major Corsellis, 13th Bombay
Infantry ; Major Phillips, 7th Bengal Light Cavalry ;
Major Macan, 17th Bombay Infantry; Major Vassal, her
Majesty's 78th Foot ; Major Wilton, 4th Bengal In-
fantry ; Major Kennett, 13th Bombay Infantry ; Major
Lowth, her Majesty's 86th Foot • Major Richards, Bth
Bombay Infantry ; and Major Sidley, htl• Majesty's 86th
Foot ; members-16 field-officers, with a general officer
as President ; 17 in all, Captain Lamert, of her Ma-
jesty's 78th Highlanders, is to officiate as Judge-Advo-
cate-General. A steamer was to be in readiness at
Kotree oa the 28th, fur the accommodation of all the
members from Kurachee and Hyderabad. From this
we infer that the court cannot very well assemble before
the 12th or 15th proximo. It is possible we may be
furnished with an outline, or perhaps, a copy of the
charges brought against Colonel Moseley for our next
issue. We hear that they bear chiefly on the alleged
concealments regard;ng the state of his corps. Not one

OLYMPIC THEATRE.

The Outcast, a drama written purposely for Mr.
Rayner, was again performed at this theatre last
night, when that gentleman resumed Hs original part
of Walter Graysdale, and Mrs. W. West sustained
the character of the heroine. The piece consists of
a strange medley of scenes and circumstances, among
which may be enumerated a harvest home, a gang of
poachers, a shipwreck, an incendiary conflagration,
a child rescued from the flames, and other incidents
"by flood and field." The plot is less skilfully con-
structed than it might have been, and in particular at
the end of the first act. when ti.e child is preserved
from the flames. This would have formed a more
appropriate close to the piece. The drama affords
scope for the display of Mr. Rayner's peculiar forte
and powerful talents, and most ably he acquitted him-
s4f in both the whirlwind of passion and the subdued
pat;:..,- by wl.kh some of th.• se,lnes were dis;in-
Lo..isht-ct. It i fdr to state that he acted with all the
t(xce and freshness of his earlier days. The audience
were extremely liberal in their plaudits. Mrs. W.
West laboured hard and successfully to make the
most of an indifferent part. The house was well at-
tended.

" THE RULING PASSION STRONG IN DEATH:'—
Yesterday afternoon Mr. Wakley, M.P., held an
inquest,
a tthe Flag and Lamb, Clerkenwell-green, on the
of Frances Gardiner. It appeared that the deceased °4••-
was
greatly addicted to drink, and that she frequently
almost
deprived herself of the commonest necessaries inorder
that she might fully indulge her propersity for arden,
liquors. Her husband, who is a most abstemious man,
returned home on the night of the 28th of last month,
when he found her drunk, and craving for more drink.
In order to get liar to bed he gave her rum. Upon
awaking in the morning he found her a corpse at his
side. Verdict, " Natural death." Mr. Wakley said
that he lately held an inquest upon a lady inordinately
given to drink. ller medical attendants informed her
husband that she could not live without drink, but that
drank would kill her. The husband, of the two evils,
chose what to him appeared the lesser, as it secured him
peace, and gave her what drink she desired. In tw©
months she drank 137 bottle: of port wine and brandy,
exclusive of malt liquors. She shortly afterwards was
seised with mortal sickness, and such was her craving for
drink, even in the agonies of death, that her attendants
wo cmpelled to keep constantly in her month a rag

checked—has been even made to retrogade. Is not this
the highest of encouragements to persevere ? The
Legislature, the Executive, and the affluent,
thus encouraged, are persevering, and under the pro-
vidence of Him who has prompted them so far,
they will persevere. They have made the dis-
covery, a discovery, alas ! too long concealed or
neglected, that the character of the humble class of
Englishmen comprises all the elements of good-
ness that can be found in human nature,
and comprises them probably in richer abundance
than they can be found in any other order of
mankind. Our people are naturally patient,
laborious, enterprising, firm lovers of truth, just,
grateful, affectionate, merciful, and with thf.
strongest tendency to religious feeling. These
are the materials upon :which those who wield
the power of the community, whether they are in
' public or in private stations (and immeasurably the
greater portion of that power is in private hands)
have to deal. And for the result they who have the
power owe a heavy responsibility here and hereafter.

UNITED SERVICE MAGAZINE.

Foremost among the articles in the Number before
us is a discussion on the " Social Wrongs of the
Soldier," whom the writer most erroneously states as
becoming "an outcast from the affections and the
respect of civilians " the instant he engages to serve
her Majesty in the army. We are not aware that
this is the case ; on the contrary, we are firmly of
opinion that the military man is invariably treated
with respect by the people so long as he maintains a
peaceable and conciliatory demeanour. "Reminis-
cences of a French Prison " contain one or two
striking incidents, and will remind the reader of the
admirable sketch of the interior of a French provin-
cial Newgate, in Captain Marryatt's first and best
tale of " Peter Simple." We have no space for
extracts.

VICTORIA THEATRE.

Mr. Osbaldiston is certainly a most indefatigable
caterer for the public. Notwithstanding the crowded
houses which the performances of last week drew
every night, he has this week produced another new
drama, from the practised pen of the author of Susan
.Hopley. It is entitled Marianne, the Child of
Charity, and details the adventures of a poor, but vir-
tuous girl, Marianne (admirably acted by Miss Vin-
cent), who at the commencement of the drama is sup-
posed to be a mere child of charity, but who eventually
turns out to be the heiress of immense wealth. The
piece is cleverly written, and is replete with dramatic
incidents and startling effects. We were glad to see
that Mr. Osbaldiston himself took a part in this
drama. He acted the part of Captain Sefton, the
father of Marianne, who had been supposed to
be dead, but who returns from slavery in time
to rescue his daughter from the machinations of
those who would fain destroy her, and, by his judicious
performance, contributed greatly to the success of the
piece. Mr. W. Searle, who has recently joined this
company, was very successful in his delineation of the
character of Nightshade, a desperado of the O'Smith
school, and was much applauded. Mr. John Herbert,
as Job Scroggs, a cat's-meat vendor, kept the house
in a roar of laughter the whole time he was on the
stage ; and Miss E. Terry, as Miss Charlotte Todd, a
gay lady of fashion, was excellent. If we mistake
not, Marianne is destined to be as popular as Susan
Hopley.

HOOD'S MAGAZINE.
This Magazine reached us, as usual, at so late an
lour—it has a born genius for non-punctuality—that
wo are compelled, perforce, to be brief in our notice
of it. The Number, on the whole, is a good ave-
rage one, and the most entertaining articles are those
ss hich proceed from the pen of the editor, who, in ad-
dition, contributes several whimsical . illustrations.
The present ch ipters of "Our Family" contain several
lively touches of character, not unworthy of Sterne.
The subjoined " Anacreontic, by a Footman," will,
no doubt, cause our readers a hearty laugh :
It's wery well to talk in praise
Of Tea and Water-drinking ways,
In proper time and place ;
Of sober draughts, so clear and cool,
Dipp'd out of a transparent pool
Reflecting heaven's face.
Of babbling brooks, and purling rills,
And streams as gushes from the hills,
It's wery well to talk—
But whut becomes of all sich schemes,
With ponds of ice, and running streams,
As doesn't even walk ?
When winter comes with piercing cold,
And all the rivers, new or old,
Is frozen far and wide ;
And limpid springs is solid stuff,
Arid chrystal pools is hard enough
To skate upon, and slide ;
What then are thirsty men to do,
But drink of ale, and porter too,
Chumpsgne as makes a fizz ;
Port, sherry, or the Rhenish sort,
And p'rhaps a drop of summut short—
