VAN DIEMAN'S LAND.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM 110BART9S TOWN,
;mamma 21, 1823.

66 We arrived here on the 22d of last month, after a
tedious passage of six months and eighteen days, from
Leith. Nothing can exceed the beauty of the scenery :.
from the entrance of the river Derwent, till you arrive
at Hobart Town, the river is upwards of two miles
broad, and is one of the finest harbours I ever saw.—
The town is small, but neat, and contains about 4.0 W
inhabitants. The principal buildings are the Govern-
ment House, Church, Hospital, Tail, and extensive
Commissariat Stores, there is also the foundation laid
of a large Presbyterian Church, and the Wesleyan
Methodists are building a large Meeting House. The
New Town is a beautiful spot, about two miles firm
town, and surrounded with a number of fine farms in
high state of cultivation.
" In going from Hobart Town to Lawrencetown, te
land for the first twenty miles appeals to me but ye: y
indifferent, and, with a few exceptions, muck wooded;,
at twenty-eight miles from the former pace the count? y
opens, and the eye is relieved by beautiful tracks of rich
level land: fifty-seven miles horn Hobart Town is a
beautiful track, called York Plains, but which is but in-
differently watered. .
" We have taken a store in town for the sale of our
goods, but there is nothing of any consequence doing ;
we are, however, in hopes of an improvement, as there
is a Bank established here which is to be opened the
Istianuary next. It is called the Bank of Van Dieman's
food, and is to discount bills and take in deposits of
money. The capital invested in this /Link is 10,000 V

LITERARY FUND.

Yesterday the Anniversary of this Institution took
place at the Freemasons' Tavern, at which place an
assembly of about 900 Gentlemen met, the Marquis of
LA NspowN in the Chair.
After the removal of the cloth, Non Nobis Domine
%vac sung in very fine style by Messrs. Goulden, Collyer,
Phillips, Fitzwilliam, T. Cooke, and Master Edmonds.

. -
" The King," with four times four. Song, 1 God save the
Duke of York, and the rest of the Royal Family."
Glee, Hail, smiling morn !'—" Army and Navy." Song, ' Rule
Britannia.'

The Noble Marquis then proposed, " Success to,
the Literary Fund."
Sir WILLIAM A SIIBURNHAM then recited some appro.,
priate verses of his own composition, in honour of his
Majesty, as the Patron of the Fund; and alter the health,
of the worthy Baronet had been drank,
Mr. FITZGERALD recited his annual ode in praise of
the Institution. The last line attracted our particular
attention—
" The tree of fieedorn is the British oak."
This, our readers may remember, is the identical line to
which certain wicked wits, the authors of the Rejected
Addresses, attempted, but in vain, to affix something
like ridicule. Tai, efFot t has, it is evident, been fruit-
less, as the worthy anchor, who must be admitted to be
the best judge, has adhered to his favourite conception.
After the recitation, the health of Mr. Fitzgerald was
drank with applause. That Gentleman returned thanks.
The TREAsunut gave an account of the current ex-
penses and receipts of the past year, and announced
that his Majesty had been pleased to send them, in two
donations, the sum of 2.0(1.

Tic " Health of the Duke of Somerset, the President," was
then drank with three times three.

On the health of Mr. T. MoonE being drank, that
Gentleman lettirircd thanks in brief, but eloquent terms.
The health of the Cu A I RNIAN, and several other toasts
were (hank.

" The Sheriffs of London, and prosperity to it,"—
called up Mr. Sheriff WHITTAKER, who returned thanks
in a neat speech.—The company did not separate until
a late hour.

Prince Frederick lo•lis, who had hitherto resided at
Frankfort. On the 25th of Apt il the Prince n:ade his

falls by inheritance to the Ilouse of \Vied-Neuwied.

morning, from which we give the following extracts:

SALONICIIL APRIL 8.

The Seraskier Abdolobut, who was said to be de-
prived of his dignity and even dead, arrived yesterday
to our great terror, uith a numerous suite, at Arably,
a village about four leogiies from this city. As accord-
ing to the accounts of fugitive peasants he was preceded
by his horse-tails, and had an immense quantity of bag-
gage, it would seem that he is going again to Adria-
nople. There is even a report in circulation, that he is
to be made Captain Pacha.

Thomas &feria was brought up on a warrant obtained by the
Solicitor of the Treasury, for publishing Paine's Age of Itensm,and
Palmer's Principles of Nature, which works the prisoner sold 4,
Cousins on the 3d May, at Carlile's shop, Fleet-streer, in defiance
of the law, and not regarding the fate proceedings against Campiea
who is employed in the same shop. The Solicitor of the Treasury
then told the Alderman, that•he required the usual hail from
prisoner for his appearance at the Sessions. The information aLd
depositions were then read ever to the prisoner, and be was ask• d
if he had any question to put to the witnesses, or if he had 3;:y
thing to say?
The prisoner, who is a very meagre, shabbily.dressed ynitng ma,,,
said he did not consider the publishing of them any crime.
Alderman ANSLEY then told the prisoner the law had e.:pr.i.4
forbid the doctrines of those hooks to be ilkserninateil by ooli.
lication, and as he had infringed ti.e law he should Aide 11r
should, therefore, find bail, himself in tip!. and two iv hert
The prisoner s.iid he had no hail ready.
The ALDERMAN.—Then you must he committed.
The Prisoner (laughing).—Oh ! I can't help that.
The prisoner was then committed in default of bail.
1101ST

Tuesday a Noble Earl made a private application to Mr. 11%, e,
the sitting Magistrate, for a warrant to search the premises .1 4
silversmith in Long Acre, ender the following circumstance,;
Some few weeks ago his Countess iti:rus..ed several han2rtd
ounces of old plate to the silver: nith in question, with the view, z,
it would seem, of baying it either repaired or exchanged, 2s ,he
might, upon consultation with his Lordship, determine; but in t,ht.
meantime they took the liberty of melting the wht•le or it den,
and alleged in excuse that they conceived the plate was
by them, and that the value was to be returned in nth. r
estimating the old silver at a certain rate per ounce. His L•r,lship
was of opinion that this was a fraudulent excuse, invented for t!-.e
purpose of obtaining valuable articles of plate at the price of
silver, and therefore he requested a search warrant, in the ho,le
recovering it in its original state.

- -
The Magistrate, however, was of opinion, that he had nn
diction in such case, and declined issuing the warrant ; at the sane
time observing that it was pos•ible redress could he obtained in the
Courts above ; which course his Lordship said he shauld adopt.

Two women had been lately whipped, and one tarred
and feathezed and promenaded through the streets
mounted on an for having uttered what are now
deemed seditious cries.

Two expeditions of '2OOO troops eae.h, one for Peru
and the other for Mexico, were still talked ot, but it was
felt that they could have no possib:e effect upon the fate
of those countries, and would only serve to ptove the
total incapacity of Spain to recover her Colonies.

Accounts from Cadiz are said to have announced that
symptoms of the yellaw fever had displayed themselves
in that city, whete it was Lkely to prove very destruc.
tive, if it broke out, on account of the number of fc..

There was a rumour in the Spar,i,h calital, that t7:e

Letters of the 10th front Paris, supply the Ibllowin
fi
e,xpian7tti'..n of the recent movements of some ships of
war ril.,mq th, co;tsts of Spain and Icartugal. An ordez
has, it is said, been given by the French Government,
that the sTiadron before Cadiz shall take aelvanta,;e of
the favourable season to make marine excursinr,s, for
the double purpose of exercising the crews and pte,cr‘v-
ing their health. It was in obedience to this crder, sav
the letters, that Admiral Itorouns lately paid a visit to
the Tagus. Another arrival at Lisbon, which calved
some speculation, was that of two corveite,, which it
seems had put in thereon their voyage from Brest with
provisions for the garrison at Cadiz. These facts are
reinforced by the frequently repeated and very just ar-
gument, that France, during the progress of the great
financial measure about t•, be carried into effect, cannot
but have the nr.st solid rersons for pre.erving peace in
every quarter ; and that, having established at this mo-
ment the firmest friendship and good understandin:
with England, it would be impossible for her to embark
in any designs against Brazil or Spanish America,
without the full knowledge and participation of this
Government. This argument ought to calm any ap-
prehensions that may still exist on the subject; but it is
etprolly certain, that the daily increasing stake, both
financial and commercial, which this country has At
risk on the other side of the Atlantic, predisposes those
concerned to the influence of every idle rumour ; while
numbers are deterred altogether, by the present situa-
tion of South America, from sharing in the benefits of
that intercourse.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

• MANSION-MUM
A letter-abler, named Gasp, wan dtarited, at the haft. hi
the Superintendents of the Posedlies, with having forged a hoed
for MO.
It appears, that it is the custom of the Post-once establhlimont,
to repine a bond from each letter-car:in for the sae of /p at a
security for the honest diseharp of his dada, and the mash: pay-
ment of the money he reetivits. Tore reipuidbie warns are re.
piled to inch hood, end the primmer, goo b W appoised to the
situation, produced a paper, with two elpstures, as his security.
After be bad been some time in ace, It was discovered that the
whole was a forgery. He was apprehended, and one of the per-
sons whose names were attached to the pretended instrument came
forward (although reluctant) to swear, that as far as his name was
the bond was a forgery*
The Solicitor for the prosecution new stated, that the person
who bad given evidence of the forgery had absconded. It was, be
said, necessary to prosecute the prisoner for an offence, which, if
not prosecuted,.might lead to the meet serious robberies. He there-
fore applied for i warrant to apprehend the witness who bad with-
drawn himself.
The Lout Maros was informed, that the witness had probably
kept out of the way from motives of humanity towards the weer.
tunate mace at the bar.

His Laminar said be could net lend his assistance to avert the
severity of the law ; be regretted that the prisoner appeared not to
have considered that severity, when be, as was alleged, committed
the offence. The witness must attend and give his testimony.
A warrant was then issued for the witneds apprehension, and
the prisoner was remanded.

MR. WATT'S MONUMENT.

Agreeably to previous announcement, a public meet-
ing was held in the Town Hall of Greenock, on Tuesday
'se nnight, and respectably attended, the object of which
was to concert measures for the erection in Greenock of
a monument to the memory of this eminent individual.
Archibald Baine, Esq. Chief Magistrate, took the Chair,
and several resolutions were submitted to the meeting,
and unanimously carried. These urge, in strong terms,
the Fropriety of making Greenock, the birth-place of
Mr. Watt, the scite of one of those tributes to his ge-
nius which the grateful feelings of his countrymen have
induced them to propose. By the 4th resolution, a
Committee is nominated, to carry the object of the
meeting into effect, and on their activity, much, indeed,
must depend—not only in obtaining subscriptions, very
generally, throughout the community, but also in
urging elsewhere the imperative claims of the place of
Mr. VVatt's nativity, so that this monument to his ge-
nius may be, in every respect, worthy of it, and ade-
quate to the lofty sense universally entertained of the
benefits he has conferred on mankind. It is a source of
satisfaction, therefore, that a Committee has been se-
lected, in whose efficiency the greatest confidence may
be reposed ; and we have only to urge our townsmen
to second, with heart and hand, their efforts to promote
an object, in which all must have an interest, and re-
garding the propriety of which there cannot be a dif-
ference of opinion.—Greenock Advertiser.

COURT OF CHANCERY-THIS DAY: •

___.,w_
SMITH V. LORD RODNEY.

This was an application to stay proceedings in the Court below,
on the ground that the plaintiff had lodged an appeal from the deci-
sion of the Vice-Chancellor.

The Loan CHANCELLOR, after very considerable argument, in-
durated that the order he should make would be, that the party on
the one side should hand over to the other, the ,agreement of
lease fur the estate, the subject of dispute. That the other side
should pay over the amount of the principal and interest now due,
and that both parties should undertake to pay to the ether the costs
of the appeal.
Mr. HEALD wished the money to be paid into Court, and not to
the plaintiff.
Mr. HOENE, on the other side, contended, that it ought to be
paid over to his client; and declined making any compromise un-
less this was done.

Mr. Huai, at length said, he would pay over the money on the
assignment being made.
The Lou, Coaocw.os—Very well; then let the money be paid
over by the 14th day of Michaelmas Term next, and let both enter
into the undertaking.

A REAL BLESSING TO MOTHERS.

TT is pleasing to observe the immediate relief that is
IT
afforded to suffering Infants, by that Blessing to Mothers,the
AMERICAN SOOTHING SYRUP, the Efficacy of which is
daily adding to the great number of Children relieved from the ex-
treme pains of Dentition.—The following Case is that of the Child
of Mrs. Morton, No. 17, James-street, Bethnal-green, who at the
age of ten months (after being a fine child), suddenly lost the use
of one side, from Cutting its Teeth. The Mother took it to the
Dispensary, and was ordered to apply Leeches • she did so, until
he had nine, which reduced him very much, producing no good
effects whatever. She was at length advised to try the American
Soothing Syrup, which, before one Bottle was used in robbing its
Gums, began to restore the use of the Child's Arm; and by the
application of a second Bottle, it was brought to Its perfect health.

• The Jury, having deliberated for a few minutes, found
a verdict for the plainiiir—Damages 1501.
COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JULY 27.
• JOHNSON V. SISKI.
This was an action for an assault. Johnson, the plain-
tiff, a Captain in the Navy, of a respectable family in
Ireland, and who had served under several. Admirals
for many years, being in Jamaica,,took his passage in
the Sovereign, a ship of which the defendant Siske was
Captain, bound to England. On the evening of the 4th
of June, having finished his supper, he applied to the
steward for a glass of rum, which he, and a friend who
accompanied him, had agreed for with the Captain be-
fore he set out, besides a pint of wine and a pint of porter,
each day. On his making the application, the Captain
asked the steward if he had any rum in the cabin? being
answered no, he declared that Johnson should have no
rum of his. Johnson's fellow-passenger was surprised at
this, and exclaimed, " Good Gon, Captain, is it possible
you would refuse him a poor glass of rum and water!"
The defendant repeated he should not have it. Johnson
again requested it, and the defendant said, the steward
should obey his orders and not give a drop ; and if he
had any more such talk, he would order the plaintiff to
his cabin. Upon this angry words passed on both sides.
Johnson, holding up his little finger, said he had more
sense there than the Captain had in his whole body.
The Captain said, that if he had the plaintiff on shore,
he would put him in a strait jacket. The plaintiff told
him to, take care he did not put him in a wooden one,
meaning a coffin. The Captain also said, when he got
ashore, he would put him on his knee and whip him.
To which the other answered, " if you did I would cut
your big head off," at the same time calling the Captain
a rascal. Being irritated at this, he struck the plaintiff,
an old man nearly seventy years of age, several blows,
particularly one between the eyes which laid the flesh
open, bled profusely, and was not closed for a fortnight
after, when the ship came to England. The Captain
himself was above sixty years of age.
Mr. Serjeant VAUGIIAN addressed the Jury for the
defendant, in mitigation of damages. Jle observed,
that such provocation had been given to his client, as
no Gentleman could remain quiet under, much less a
Captain of a ship, in whom it was so necessary to main-
tain a proper authority ; and he thought the Jury would
be doing a great disservice to the Navy if they gave
any damages.
The CHIEF JUSTICE said there was no doubt both
parties were to blame. The question for the Jury was,
who began the improper conduct? They were both too
old to quarrel ; they should have recollected they would
have an account to settle soon in another place, and it
was their interest it should be settled without any addi-
tional item.—The. Jury returned a verdict for the plain-
tiff—Damages £lOO.
