and instead of thirty or forty names per volume, the
new collection will include above 2,500. This' in-
Tel esting publication will appear, at a moderate price,

. .
The following liettto reliktive to etseeld dalifikted
or detained, has been published by the o.eirternearnt
rsf. Peru t
1. Ail case, of jodicaiure respecting prises,wlffiistivittid de-
. 4
finitively in three appeals.
2. Causes of this nature will take place in the following eases
If any vessel is found 'navigating in the seas comprehended

*rues and
documents, or with false ones :
If neutral or ft iendly vessels should be found eigiviihil tb its

If they should force the blockade declared by the DCifint4
the 15th of October, 1 fi2l, and others that may be pit
. • ^,;•-
subsequently to it :
If they should convey to the enemy any
belong to them : uader all these cases they will certainly be
detained.

3. Frit ndly or neutral vessels found with illegal merchandise
on board will be detained, or should they be surprised transact-
ing business in Prohibited ports; but those cases relating to
smuggling will be adjudged by the President of the department.
4. Respecti* prize judgments, the DirectOr of •Marine will
first give his opinion, consulting at the same time his auditor.
5. All vessels detained mug be carried to the port of Callao,
' where the cause why they are detained will be shewn.
6. As soon as the d,:tained vessel arrives at Callao, the captor
will present to the Director of Marine the papers he may have
found on board; or those which the Captain or Supercargo may
have presented him, with an account of all that may have taken
place, and a list of the persons on board.

7. In order that the papers found on board may be duly lega-
lized, the captor, in the act of detaining the vessel, will take an
*count of them himself, or by the person he may appoint, ac-
companied by the Captain or Supercargo, who ought to sign the
statement made Alt by them, in order that by those documents
only, and without admitting others afterwards, the vessel shall be
adjudged, and an authorised copy of those proceedings will be
given 'them.

8. If the captor should suspect that the pipers presented by
the Captain or Supercargo of the vessel that he intends detaining
are false, he will compare them by those given by the different
States to their subject', of which he ought to have a copy given
him by the Director-General of Marine.

9. These papers being rectived, as well u all relating to•
them, by the Directur-General, he will then order tke pleadings
to commence.

10. Having summoned the Captain or Supercargo of the •es-
ael detained, thz examination of the papers will commence with
their declarations, as well as those of the captors, and likewise
the examination of all those whose testimony may be thought ne-
cessary, or who may be able to throw any light on the subject,.
11. No other papers but those designated in 6th and 7th Ar-
ticles will he admitted. If the Captain or Supercargo of the de-
taintd vessel should offer to prove, either that they would not
receive them Irons him, or that they were lost by- unavoidable-
accident, the justification will be admitted within a short and
fixed term.

12. The cause bring ended, the Director-General of Marine
will declare if there are sufficient grounds for the detention of
the vessel or not, according to justice and the pleadings.
13. This Act leaves both parties at liberty to appeal
14. An appeal fro.n the captor, without first giving securities
for the damages and expenses, will not be attended to.
13. The detained vessel will be set at liberty without ex-
pense, Ober detention be declared unjust, and if the captor should
not appeal.

16. In a contrary case, the vessel will continue until the de-
termination of the High Court of Jostles. The same
done when there may be an appeal on the part of the detained.
17. lf, whilst the pleading should be going on, it may be
thought or feared that the goods or merchandize in the detained
vessel might suffer a total loss, or great detriment, the Director-
General will resolve whether it be proper or not to proceed to
discharge the vessel.

18. Should it be deemed necessary to discharge the vessel de-
tained, the hatches will be opened in the presence of a Commis-
sioner appointed by the Director-General, and the Captain. or
Supercargo, au exact inventory of the goods discharged will be
taken, they will be deposited in warehouses, and a•key given to
the said Captain or Supercargo.

Capt.WILLIAI4 OLDRIrvZ, of the brig John, of Ply-
mouth, was unfortunately drowned on the evening of
the 9th ult. in Seville River, whilst in the act of sail-
ing for England. lie has left a numerous family,
the relics of three marriages. It 'is remit: k:ible that
his father and many branches of his family have
met their deaths by drowning.
Mr. ALEXANDER RAMSEY,. boatswain of his Ma-
je,ty's ship Goldfinch, embarked on board a boat to
go on board his ship, lying off Blue Boar yard, Ro-
chester ;on his getting alongside, he made an at-
tempt to reach a rope, which he missed, and over-
balancing himself in the boat, fell into the river, and
Was unfortunately drowned, before any assistance
could be given.
Guoa.—Until the time of Admiral VERNON, the
British sailors bad their allowance of brandy or ruin
served out to them unmixed with water. This plan
was found to be attended with inconvenience on some
occasions ; and the Admiral, therefore, ordered that
in the fleet he commanded, the spirit should be mixed
with water before it was given to the men. This in-
novation, at first, gave great offence to the sailors,
and rendered the Commander very unpopular. The
Admiral, at that time, wore a grogram coat, and was
Lioknamed " Old Grog." This name was afterwards
given to the mixed liquor he compelled them to take;
and it has since unives sally obtained the name of grog.
Tuesday rThorning, about five o'clock, a most de-
structive five was discovered to have broken out upon
thespremises of Mr. A. LING, of Pentlow, near Bel-
champ St. Paul's, in Essex. The fire began in the.
rick yard, and such were the destructive conse-
quences, that the devouring element could not be
arrested uctil the whole of the grain, hay, and out-
buildings were reduced to a mass of smoaking ruins.
Twenty head of swine perished, and a number of
implements were burnt. The farm consists of about
2(X) acres ; no part of the buildings remain, except,
ing the dwelling-house, which was miraculously pre-
served. The ushering in of that morning, with such
a devastating prospect, which was intended to be de-
voted to a much more happy scene, might have been
pioductive of still further mischief; every prepara-
tion having been made for the union of Mr. LING
with a lady in the same neighbourhood; but such
was the ardour and constancy of the happy pair,
that notwitlwanding the appalling circumstances we
have related, the wedding was actually consum-
mated. There is no doubt but the fire was the act of
an ,incendiary. •

19. If the sale of part of the goods should be thought neces-
sary, it will be effected by public auction, or by means of Com-
missioners) according as the Captain or Supercargo of the de-
tained vessel may determine.

W. The pleadings from the High Court of Justice having
been returned, the Director-General will execute its resolution
to liberate or to detain the vessel.

21. When detained, a copy of the proceedings will be given to
the captor, the party detained, and the Fiscal of Marine ; the
same shall then be received, the decision for justification being
suspended for the express term of 15 days, and with all charges.
2S. At the expiration of this term the Director-General will
declare the detained vessel a good or an unlawful prize.
23. This sentence will be, in both instances, subject to appeal.

24. The appeal being presented, it will be substantiated and
resolved, in the second prosecution, by a memorial from
both parties. _

V. 5. The same order will be observed in the substantiation,
and termination In the third, if judgment upon the sentence pro-
nounced should be prayed for.
2C. These prosecutions being finished, the process will be re-
turned to the Director-General of Marine, fur him to execute
what is already decreed.

27. The vessel being declared a lawful prize, the discharging
of her will commence, comparing the goods landed with the bills
of lading, invoice, and the inventory taken when the vessel was
detained, to prevent the least irregularity or disorder.
28. The cargo will be disposed of as the Supreme Authority
may order.

2.9. If the vessel should be declared free, she will be delivered
immediately to her Captain, or owners, with her Officers and
crew, and whatever there may be belonging to them ; they will
be exempted from all duties, and will be fumbled whit the neces-
sary license to continue their voyage without any other detention.
30. The captor will have to pay the expenses in cases of noto-
rious injustice in the detention.
Given at the Palace of the Supreme Government,

An Inquest was yesterday held at. the Dundee
Arms, Bethnal-greets, before Mr. UNwLN, Coroner,

peared from the evidence that the deceased, while

suffocated. The Jury,• after animadverting very
..everely on the conduct of the parent of the child,
returned a verdict of Accidental Death.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

e

BOXING.
The battle between Barlow and Toddle, for Forty &vete**
took place at Scruoby, near Hammy, in Nottinghamshire, 100
miles from London, on Tuesday last. Upwards of 2000 persona
mustered upon this occasion, consisting principally of farmers
and their servants. Tootle übst•sved, "he did not like short
half minute time • and therefore wished a minute to be allowed
between each round." Barlow perfectly agreed with his oppo-
nent. when both prepared to chew hglit. Tootle had foe Wm.
Icond a brother. and Barlow appeared in the ring With the Cham-
pion of England as his attendant.

LORD MAYOR'S DAY.

This being the day on which the Lord Mayor elect
(Alderman HETGA enters on the duties of his office,
his Lordship, accompanied by the City Officers, &c.
proceeded in somewhat more than the usual state
from Guildhall to Blackft iat's-bridge,where the City
_barges were in readiness to convey them to Westmin-
ster Hall. The streets along which the Procession
passed were much crowded, and the windows of the
Iton:.es presented a goodly shew of Ladies. The fol-
loss trig was the Order of the Procession:
Prate °Ricers.

Romm 1. Neither of the combatants were eager to go t*
work ; but after a little scrambling and running about the ring,
Barlow went dose* from a bit. Shouting for 'footle, and his
friends thought it was all right.
2. Tootle now came up to the scratch upon good terms with
himself. He commenced play, had the best of it, and Barlow
W 313 again hit down. " Sartain sure," said the Yokels," Barlow
will be done over, as he was in the I.unnun ring ;" and pulled
out their little bags to sport a trifle on Tootle.
3,4, 5,6, 7,8, 9, and last.—ln the last four rouods a change
took place, and Tootle was getting the worst of it. It was
pully-hauly—Tootle out of wind, and two instead of one minute
between each round would now have been of service to him.
He hit short, and kept a most respectable distance from Barlow,
The latter hero, futd.ng he could not lose, kept playing upon his
opponent's body like a drum, nil he gave him such a finisher in
the used market, which produced not only an involuntary too-tit-
too after the manner of a lesson on the Bute, but put an end to
the fight in fifteen minutes.
REIIAll(16—It was a complete Yokel fight, and Barlow does
not stand a jut higher in the estimation of the London Fancy
from the above conquest. Tootle is 40 years ofage, and has no
pretensions to scireee. Notwithstanding it was a scrambling,
pulling and hauling battle, Barlow was severely punished • and
Tootle did not go away without some heavy raps. We think it
bad judgment on the part of Barlow's backers so have let him
entered into the above contest, as he is matched for 1001. a-side,
agsiust David Hudson, on the 31st of December. At all events,
Ballow is none the better for this victory.
