ADAIIRA CALDER'S TRIAL.

An accurate copy of tome Letters which we only
referred to generally, will not be unacceptable to
our Readers—They ire as follow :
" Pewee or Watts, at Sea, the 24th July, tßos.
" My dear Sir—Permit me to return you my moil heartfelt
thanks for your unremitting attention, and for the very gallant
fupport you rendered me during the whole of the adtion on the
22d inft. Had the weather been favourable and we could have
fern to have made the nceeffary Opals, to have availed ourfelves
of tome of the miftakes of the enemy, I em fully convinced we
ftould have made the vidtory much more complete : I was obliged
to Rand to the Northward thus far, in order to cover the Wind-
for Cattle' and the two captured Mips. I think they are now
fare from the Combined, as well as the Rochefort fquadron; and
am going back to Cape Pinitterre, in hopes of feting Lord Nel-
fon: if I do not, I Mall proceed off Ferrol, to fee if any favourable
opportunity thould offer, when !may hope to attack the enemy to
advantage.—Wilhing us all polSble fuecefs, I am, my dear Stir-
ling, ever yours molt truly and fincerely,
(Signed) " ROBERT CALDER."
" GLORY, nth July, 1805.
"My dear Sir—l thank you much for your letter of yciterday,
and can ante you with great truth, I meant, and do mean, to
give you all the fupport in my power. I hope you made a good
tale to pleafe John Bull, for you had a good lubjedt to write on ;
and I think you have convinced Mon!. Bonaparte that he cannot
always get to tea and home again with impunity Excufe haße,
and believe me, molt truly, yours,
(Signed) 3 STIRLING.
(On his Majesty's fervice.)
" Sir R. Calder, Bart,"

. -
" °Loaf, lath July, 1801.
"My dear Sir—l congratulate you ou the capture of the
Spaniards, from a force fo very fuperior to that oppofed to you,
and I think lithe three (hips which at oae time Mewed a dirpoll •
don to rapport them had followed the intention, the confequence
might have been decifive. The great object 1 had in view was to
obey your orders, by keeping in a compad line while the Ognal for
that purpore remained in force ; and therefore as the Raifonable
doted with you, my Captain took good care that nothing could
pals between his and this thip.—On the furrender of the Spaniards,
I diredled the Warrior to fend and affifl in taking polreffion, and
afterwards fent fimilar orders to the l'hunderer, 113 there was no
knowing, from the thicknefs of the weather, what might other-
wife be the confequence, as your attention was confined to the
van. I likewife ordered the Egyptiennr, when I got light of
her, to get the prizes on the fame tack with us, and to tow them
to leeward of our ft tips, which orders will, I hope, meet with
your approbation. I know not why there was a reparation in the
night. Captain Linzee went, in purfuance of his inftrudions. and
rejoined me before the morning. We had only one man killed
and four wounded ; the fore.yard was grazed, which we have
flth.cl ; and what was otberwice hit was not of any confequence.
" I have great pleafure in bearing teitimony to the zeal of Cap-
tain Warren and his Officers, and feel much confidence from the
good condudt of the crew belonging to the (hip where my Bag is
flying, if our good fortune fhould again lead us again& the foe of
our country.
" Believe me, with great efteem, dear Sir. your obedient hum
bin fervar.t, (Signed) " CYARLLS STIRLING.
" Sir R. CALDER. Bart."

Sir Robert, during the whole of the trial, manifefied
an uncommon degree of firmnefs. In the examination
of the witneffes he difcovered a confiderable degree
of acutenefs. He wore an undrefs uniform. When
the Sentence of the Court was delivered, it feemed to
make a very deep imprefflon upon him, and he retired
evidently very much affetted. He was accompanied
by a great number of friends, and on defcending from
the deck of the Prince of Wales into his. barge,fcarcely
lifted up his bead, which was apparently bowed down
by the weight of the lenience.

The Court was uncommonly crowded; and a ge
neral feeling pervaded the auditory, who fympathized
with the Admiral on the event of the trial.

LORD NELSON'.

AUTHENTICATED ACCOUNT OF THE DEATH OF

LORD NELSCN:

About the middle of the aaion with the Combined
Fleets, on the 2111 of o:tober' Lord Nelfon WAS spun
the quarter deck, where he had refolved to take his
(latbon during tl.e whole of the battle. A few minutes
before he was wounded, Mr. Bourke was near him •
he looked Ileadfalily at him, and fAid, " Bourke,
exped every man to be upon his Ration." Mr. Bourke
touk the hint, and went to his proper fitnation in the
cock-pit.
At this time his Lordfhip's Secretary, Mr. Scott,
who was not, as has been reprefented, tither receiving
dirations from him, or !landing by him, but WAS
communicating fume orders to an officer at a diflant
part of the quarter deck, was cut almon in two by a
cannon shot. He expired on the infant, and was
thrown overboard.

Lord Nelfon obferved the a& of thrlwing his Se-
cretary overboard, and Paid, as if doubtful, to a M id-
thipman who was near him, " Was that Scott ?" The
Midtbipman replied, he believed it was. He es-
claimed, " Poor fellow!"

He was now walking the qu2rtet-6ck, and about
three yards from the km, the fpace he generally
walked before he turned back. His Lordfhip was in
the ad of hawing on the quarterdeck, with his face
towards the enemy, when he was mortally wounded
in the left breall by a mufket ball, fuppnfed to have
been fired from the wizen-top of the Redoubtable,
French lhip of the line, which the Vittory had attack-
ed early in the battle.
He inflantly fell. He was not, as has been relat.
edi picked up by Captain Hardy. In the hurry of
the battle, which was then raging in its greed} vi-
olence, even the fall of their beloved Commander did
not interrupt the bufinefs of the quarter deck. Two
tailors, however, who were near his Lordthip, raifed
him in their arms, and carried him to the cockpit.
He was immediately laid upon a bed, and the fol.
lowing is the fubßance of the converfation which
really took place in the cockpit, between his Lordihip,
Captain Hardy, Mr. Bourke, and Beatty :

Upon Peeing him brought down, Mr:Bonrke im-
mediately ran to him. " I fear," he Paid, " your
Lordibip is wounded."—" Mortally, mortally."—
" I hope not, my dear Lord ; let Mr. Beatty exa-
mine your wounds."—" It is of no ufe," exclaim.
ed the dying Nelfon ; " he had better attend to
others."

Mr. Beatty now approached to examine the wound
—his Lordfhip was railed up ; and Beatty. whole
attention was anxioufly fixed upon the eyes of his pa-
tient, as an indication the molt certain when the
wound is mortal, after a kw moments glanced his
eye on Bourke, and expreffed his opinion in his
countenance. Lord Nelfon now turned to Bnurke,
and (aid, 46 Tell Hardy to come to me." Bourke
left the cockpit. Beatty now Paid, Soifer me, my
Lord, to probe the wound with my finger ; I will
give you no pain." Lord Nelfon permitted him, and,
palling his left hand round his waif}, he probed it
with the fore finger of his right. •
The defcription of the (urgent:, however, is fdac-
curate and fcientific, that, by his permiffion, we
thankfully give it:

" Oa his Lordfhip's being brought below, he
complained of acute pain in about the fixth or
feventh dorfal veterbra, of privation of renfe, and mo.
tion of the•body and inferior extremities; his refpi-
r.;:ion was fhort and difficult ; his pulfe weak, fmall,
and irregular ; he frequently declared his back was.
fhot through—that he felt every inftant a gulls of
11 blood within his breati ; and that he had finfations
which indicated to him the approach of death. In
the courfe of an hour his pulfe became inchflina,
and was gradually loft itt thr arri ; his extremities
and forehead became loon afterwards cold ; he re-
tained hit wonted energy of mind and exercife of his
faculties until the latelt moment of his •exlftence ; and
whcn Viaory, as figual as decifive, was announced
to him, he expreffed his Onus acknowledgments
thereof, and heart-felt fatish:ction at the Onions
eveni, in the molt emphatic language. He then de-
livered hislaft orderswith his ufual precifion, and, in a
few minutes after, c xgirefl eithotat a firuggle.

COUISi LND s error iire. BALL: £SCRRT•INED SINCE
MATH

,‘ The ball (truck the fore-part of his Lnrdfhip's
epaulette, and entered thelelk shoulder immediately
before the proceffus secret:than fcapule; which it flight.
ly fraCtured : it then defcended obliquely into the
thorax, fraliuring the feennd and third ribs ; and,
after penetrating the left lobe of the lungs, and di-
viding in its pelage a large branch of the pulmonary
artery, it entered the left fide of the (pine, between
the firth and feventh dorfal vettebre, fraltured the
left tranfverfe procefs of the firth vertebra, wounded
the medulla fpinalis, and, fraeturing the right tratif-
veife procefs of the-feventh vertebra, it made its way
frhm the right fide of• the fpine, directing its courfe
through the mtifcles of the back, and lodged therein,
about two inchts below the interiot angle of the right
fcapula.—On removing the ball, a portion of the gold
lace and pad of the epaulette, together with a (mall
pi&e of hiq Lordlhip's coat, were found firmly at.
tached to it. " W. BEATTT,• Burgeon."
When Bourke returned into the cock-pit with
Captain Hardy, Lord Ndfon told the hider to come
near him.—" Kifs we, Hardy," he exclaimed,—
Captain Hardy kiffed hiz cheek.—"-I hope Ihur
Lordfhip," he laid, .6 ,a ill Rill live to enjoy your tri.:
umpli."—" Never, Hardy !" he exclaimed ; " I am
dying—l am a dead man all over—Beatty will tell
you fo—bring the fleet to an anchor—you have all
done your duty—Goo blela you."—Captain Hatay
now laid, " I hippole Collint;wood, my dear
is to command the fleet."--‘, Never, he exclaimed,
euhiy i live,"—meaning, doubtlefs, that, fo long as
his gallant 14)44 furvived, he would never defert his
duty.

What puffed after this was merely cafual : his
Lot dihipls hilt words were to Mr. Beatty, whilll he
was expirtng in his arms, '• I could have Aillud to
have lived t.. enjoy this; but GOD'S *ill be done."—
,4 My Lord," exclainted you die in the
midit of ttiumph."—., Do I, Hardy ?"-!—He fmiled
faintly—e' GOD be pralfed I" Thefts were his lad
words before be expired.

Cr'vsNT GARDEN.—On Thurfday this Theatre was
exceedingly crowded ; the pit and gallerierawere over-
flowing before the drawing op of the curtain ; ard, as
is often the cafe during the holidays, the ant:ileum'
nometoos as it appeared. was we more numerous
than tinily. The Ti aged yof A/pbeitb had a very good
and fpitited reprefentatiou ; although, from the dif
turhance before the curtain, which occaftonally pre-
dominated, few wot ds of many fcenes were ditlivaly
heard.

AN INTFIESTING SCAPIE

Emit place during the performance. A Sailor, appa.
sently abont thirty years of age, and of eery health y
appearance, with the blunt and honell manners of a
veal Tar, sit an early part of the evening, occafioned
irtme mirth to the individuals in the Pit, where Yee;
vas alto fitaated, bawling loudly for thole aloft,
((meaning the galleries) tojoeu their jabber (or ceafe
their noire) inercaling thereby the eonfufion which
prevailed. Jack, at length. railing himfelf on one of
the feats, exclaimed—" Msfinates aloft—three hearty
Am.* Neffon and the 1,i1e." jock was obeyed ; nor
were the !bouts confined to the Galleries only.
7ass4. from the attention paid to him, was now in
dined to indulge Itimfelf further ; and producing a
Metal, to which he faflened a rack ribbon, he gave the
audience to underhand, that it was a Medal which
had been ftruck to commemorate the Battle of the
; and which, as the brave NELSON was no more,
m it bitre his head, he offered it to their notice (poiat•
ins to the Pack ribbon) in mourning !—much applanfe
followed ; and the medal in nrournins was confpicuoutly
waved by the Sailor many times riming the remainder
of the night.
jai baying repeatedly called to the mnficians,
between the ads of the tragedy, for Ante Brkannia,"
without being attended to, at the conclusion of the
piece, forced his way, through all impediments in the
pit. to the Orcheltra, when he again waved his bloc;
ribbon with the.amis/ of to it, and mulled upon
his favourite tune, and with which he was this time
indulged.
Much applanfe followed; and
,lack, as he twirled
round his black ribbon, lout the medal. which found
its way to the nage. A gentleman in the boxes beck.
erred to one of the Pet formers, whom he obferved
handing againft ore of the win is at the fide of the
Rage, to take up and taring to him the medal which
