ivre of receiving a greater dividend for his money in-
vested (the three per cents. paying now only four and
* half per cent. interest, and the are per cents. rather
more than five and a quarter), but might alsp em-
brace ihe opportunity of a re-exchange (if he thought
fit) at the time of any future Loan. when the three
per cats. would certainly fall considerably more is
proportion than the five per cents.
As to the idea of the five per cents. being mid/
in the event of peace, it may be remarked-that, in
the present situation of the finances of the country,
such a measure is next to impossible : indeed it would
require many years of profound pease to put Govern-
ment in possession of the means of doing it. On the
other hand, should the war continue, there is an abso-
lute certainty that the holder of the five per cents.
would be enabled to re-instate himself in the three
per cents. at a very considerable profit. - And it is
by such safe and easy exchanges that many peons,
possessed of funded property, are in the habit "O rs f
creasing their their income.

apprentice who eloped from him, and served the de-
fendant. At the pot Lpfd 14.1.14NOOROUGH nonsuited
the plaintiff, en the rind that it was not ate proper
form of action, but that it ought to have been invel

MCRDER.
Reeve stood indicted for having inflicted dims,
blows, with his fists and a handspike, on the body of
Ramsammee, a Lascar, on board the Java, on the
10th of May, on the high seas, thereby occasionink
his death.
Mr. ADAM stated, that the prisoner was second
mate on board the Java. On the 10th 'of May, 1812„
this ship was lying in Sanger Roads, Calcutta. Pre-
vious to this period the deceased had- come cin 'board
the.ship as a seaman. On the morning of the 10th be

vessel, which is the mode In which they usually place'
theniselve‘ithen labouring under indisposition. The
gitisoner 'went up to him, and desiled him to go to his
duty. The deceased did nett stir, bat complained of
illness, and said he was unable to dearly work. The
prisoner, after repeating his orders, and finding them
-not obey ad,` struck the deceased with his fists, and
afterwards went fora handspike, with.which histruck
him several blows. The deceased from that time be-
came worse. There was no Surgeon.on board, lout
such aid as his shipmates could give him was admi-
nistered. lie refused any sustedance, and at night
Was covered with a blanket. In the morning he was
found dead. His countrymen, in pursuance of their
custom, washed the body ; during *Mich they per.
ceived several bruises on the deceased's head and
body. After this ceremony, application was made I
for a boat to take the body on shore, which was only
three miles distant, for burial. The Chief Mate,
however, refused. The Lascars were ordered by the
prisoner to throw the body overboard, but they re-
fused, as did some Portuguese _sailors, who had re-
ceived similar instructions. The same evening the,
prisoner himself threw the body overboard.
Four Lascars were then called, who were sworn by
their High Priest, on the 1[,-/an, according to the
forms of the Mahomedan religion. They conSrmed
the statement of, the Counsel, but said they made no'
complaints of the murder to the Native Officers, or
to any other, person in India, although they had the
opportunity of so doing; and some of them, although
particularly examined as to any complaint which they
had to make respecting their treatment-on board the
Java, by order of the Directors of the East India
Company; on their arrival in England, did not hint

H. Newberry, carfenter, deposed, that in the spring
of 1812, he went from the Surrey East Indiaman on
board the Java to work. He heard of the death of
Ramsarnmee, which was invariably attributed by all
the Lascars to the ill-treatment of the Boatswain,
whose life was in consequence in danger. He even
heard one of the Jeascars,address the prisoner at the
bar, while taking him by the- coat, thus-44 Come see:

The prisoner went with the Lascars to Ramuminee.
H. Harris and J. Briggs, seamen, deposed to the
same effect.

turned a verdict of—Not Guilty.
