the body has since lain in state, as a tribute justly at Knightsbridge Cavalry Barracks, as
due to those inestimable qualities both of the head
the 24th and 28th of September, 1822, for the trial of Captain
of the Royal Regiment of Horse Guards, who was st-
and heart, which adorned his long, and useful, and reigned upon the undermentioned charges:
virtuous life. Ist. For neglecting to comply with a Iteginiental Order, dated
April 18, 1821, respecting the settlement of his regimental
debts, due to the clerk of his troop ; though frequently applied
to by the clerk of the troop for that purpose.
2. For disgraceful conduct, in giving two drafts to the Mess-
man of the Regiment, on the Agents, which drafts were disho-
noured, about the 24th of June and 7th of July, 1822.
5. For being repeatedly absent from his Regiment without
leave, in the year 1822: all such conduct being highly prejudi-
cial to good order and military discipline, and unbecoming the
character of an Oncer and a Gentleman.
Upon which charges-the Court came to the following decision :
" The Court having taken into their consideration the whole
of this case, and having duly weighed the evidence kid before
them, as well on the part of the promention ashy Captain Jebb
hi his defence' are of opinion as to the brat charge, that Capt.
Jebb is guilty of having neglected to Comply with a Regimental
Order, dated 18th of April, 1821, respecting the settlement of
W regimental debts doe to the clerk of his troop, such debts
having been made known to him by the troop account-book
being exhibited to him in the usual manner.
" A 3 to the second charge, that Capt. Jebb is guilty of having
given two drafts to the blessman of the Regiment, upon the
Agents, which drafts were dishonoured about the 24th of June
and 7th of July, 1822, such conduct being, in the opinion of
the Court, under all the circumstances stated as connected with
the transaction, unwarrantable and reprehensible.
"As to the third charge, that Capt. Jebb is guilty. •
" The Court having found Captain Jebb guilty, as above
stated, do sentence him to be removed from his Majesty's service."
Having thus performed a duty which they have considered
themselves called upon to discharge for the due maintenance of
discipline in his Majesty's service, the Court are induced, from
Captain Jebb's length of service, from sonic of the circum-
stances which have appeared in the course of this inquiry, and
also from the favourable testimonials which Captain Jebb has
laid before them as to his character, humbly but strongly to recom-
mend bins as a fit object for his Majesty's favourable consideration
Ills Majesty was pleased to approve and confirm the finding
and sentence of the Court ; but in gracious consideration of the
manner in which the Court have recommended the prisoner, his
Majesty is pleased to permit him, Captain Jebb, to receive the
regulated value of his commissions.—l ant, Sir, yours,

wai forwarded to the Officer commanding the Blues.
Yesterday, after Divine Service, Colonel DLitt M.P. who
appeared to be commanding the Corps (and not Dante,
R. HILL)
called the Regiment together into the Riding-house, and there
read aloud the charges and sentence to the whole. Capt. Jena
was not present, nor indeed any but the persons officially con-
nected with the Regiment. This proceeding seemed to create
a powerful sensation, in which Colonel Drake joined, stopping
several times. After reading some other Orders, the Regiment
returned to the Dermas.

ENGLISH OPERA-HOUSE.—This Theatre closed for
the season on Saturday evening. During the three
months to which the exertions of the Company were
restricted, a good deal of novelty, some of it of a
very pleasing character, has been presented to the
Public. The season has, on the whole, been beneficial
to the treasury. The performances on Saturday even-
ing were the Operatic Drama of Gil Bias, the Farce
of Gretna Green, a Musical Olio, and the Operetta of
Love among the Roses. After the Musical Olio, in
which MissPOVEY, Mr.BROADHURST, and Mr.PEAR-
MAN distinguished themselves, Mr. BARTLEYCaMe for-
ward and delivered the following farewell Address :
"'Anna arm Gurmatzu—As the opening of a theatrical
season brings with it hope, so the close as naturally produces
regret. We met you only three months ago with buoyant spirits,
and we now take our leaves with unaffected sorrow.

" For the first time since this Theatre was erected, we have
had a fair, thanes a limited chance of attracting your notice by
the closing of the Patent Theatres for thirteen weeks—we have
thus been relieved from the oppressive burden of the extended
seasons of what of late years were absurdly called " The. Winter
Theatres." For this regulation we (in common with the Hay-
market Theatre) have been indebted to the liberal and upright
interference of the present Lord Chamberlain, who has con-
descended to take so enlarged a view of the subject of public
amusements (making the public accommodation his first object),
as compels us thus gratefully to acknowledge the weighty obli-
gation his interposition has conferred also upon us.
" The Proprietor. Ladies and Gentlemen, proudly feels that
the exertions which have been used to excite your notice and
merit your countenance have, during the short period thisThea4
has been open, been crowned with as much success as
season of the year, and the remarkable heat of a large port '
of a remarkably fine summer, could allow him to hope fur. The 1
novelties produced have been uniformly successful, and many oil
them greatly attractive ; and it is with feelings of heartfelt ac-
knowledgment, and sincere regret, that I am now compelled, in
his name, in my own, and in that of all the Performers, to, offer
you our respectful good wishes, and to bid you farewell."
PULPIT WARFARE.—Sunday se'nnight, the con-
gregation of the Dissenting Chapel at Bersted, rear
Bognor, were thrown into the utmost confusion from
the following circumstance :—The Rev. J. SAUNDERS I
preached his farewell Sermon ; and, in the course of
his address, animadverted in very strong terms on thel
treatment which he had received from the members.
of the Chapel, during his residence among them.—
This drew forth some spirited observations from the
Rev.J. HUNT, of Chelmsford (but late of Chichester),
who sat in the body of the Chapel. A warm contro-
versy between the Ministers ensued, and which, to
the great amusement of the auditors, terminated by
Mr. HUNT'S obtaining possession of the pulpit.
THE BISHOP or CLOGIISR.—.-We are today enabled
to announce some very important particulars in con-
nexion with the case of this unhappy person. The wit-
nesses who arrived from London, a couple of weeks
since, having undergone a preliminary examination in
Dublin by Sir H. Mzeitorrn, were subsequently dis-
patched to the seat ofjudicial investigation at Armagh.
The proceedings iu the Metropolitan Court have al-
ready commenced. The LORD PRIMATE and assist-
' ing Bishops have been sitting during the last few
days, and before these Right Reverend Personages,
the regular examination of the accusing witnesses
has taken place. This part of the process will, it is
understood, terminate this day (the 4th instant).—
The course which follows next will occupy, perhaps,
about ten days more. The Ecclesiastical law has pe-
culiar forms, and directs intervals between the. publi- ,
cation of the charge against an accused party, the'
examination of witnesses, anti other distinct parts ofl
the proceedings. Judgment will be pronounced, it is
communicated to us, either on the 13th or 14th inst.
Of course no doubt can exist of its being that of de-
privation—in other words, a removal from all spi-
ritual rank and distinction, the dispossession of all
Church revenues and emoluments, and an exclusion
for ever from any connexion with the clerical character.
—The Court having thus finally closed its sittings,
6fiteen days will be allowed to the accused party to
appeal against its judgment ; when, as no appeal
is likely to be entered, tae sentence of deprivation
will be officially promulgated. The course of pro-
ceeding adopted by the Authorities, in this most pain-
ful case, has given the greatest satisfaction to the
Clergy, and other members of the pure Church which
one of its Dignitaries has so wanatnrally scandalised.
The Bishop of Clogher is at Fans.—from the Daidin
Journal of Friday.

32d Ditto:-Lieutenant John George Campbell, from half-pay
of the Regiment, to be Lieutenant, vice Thomas Ross Lewen,

It is now understood that Lord Comsaamaar, G. CB. who has

nant-General Sir SAMUEL AUCHMUTY, well certainly go to Ire-
land, and assume the command of the forces in that part of the
United Kingdom.
A Company of the 15th Regiment of Foot will arrive to-
morrow at Newcastle-under-Line, from Wolverhampton, pro-
-ceed from thence to Liverpool, where it will arrive on Friday

for Dublin, on the 14th instant. _ _

The 24 and 3d divisions of this corps will not march from
Hull till the 11th and Is2h, and are ordered to arrive an the 18th
and 19th instant, at Manchester.
A squadron of the Bays will arrive at York this day, from

A company of the 66th Regiment of Foot will arrive to-day

Monday, Major-General Sir Joint &Jar, H.C.B. inspected
the 3d Royal Veteran Battalion, quartered at Galway, com-
manded by Lientenant.Colonel Fox, in the demesne of Mance.
11. LYNCiI, Esq. at Barna. At the conclusion of the Review
the Major-General was pleased to express his entire spproba-
don at the uniform appearance of the Battalion, and their steady
conduct in the field; and, at the same time, strongly recom-
mended a strict adherence to that proper conduct in quarters
which would insure them the good-will of the inhabit:mu.
A man of the name of Amid C.allaskus, of the Veteran Bat-
talion, at present in Cork, has been arrested, on suspicion of
being concerned in the murder of the Rev. Mr. OMAGH'S ser-
vant. Some of the 14th Regiment are also under examination
before the Magistrates, in consequence of expressions regarding
the murder, made use of by these, whilst rioting in a public-
house on Sunday tennien.
