WAR IV INDIA.

The following is an extract of a letter from an Officer
engaged in active operations against the Burmese : it is
dated Rangoon, May 21 In the affair of ltamoo,
the But mese tought well, and lost about 70 or 80 killed,
for no quarter was given, nor do I think it will be given
during tl:e war, on either side ; for if you save aßirman's
life, it is ten to one but he returns the favour by taking
) our's. Fri:or all appearances, this will be a bloody and
vrotracted• warfare. We are about to send an expedition
against Syriani and die ancient city of Pegu in a few
days. It is about 70 miles up the river, and we shall
have bash fighting all the way. We are now busy in
fitting fire-boom, and arranging fur the boats to go up
the river. Ido not think we shall be ready for the ex-
pedition up the Irrawaddy river to Prome in less than
a month. The Captain of theLarne will then hoist his
pendant on hoard the steamboat. Sir A. Campbell.
with the major part of the forces, will join him ; and
only a sufficient garrison will be left to protect Ran-
goon. If we reach Prome, all will be well ; but it is an
extremly difficult undertaking to transport in open boats
a force of 6000 or 7000 men up a rapid river, within a
stone's thriiw 01 the beach, and a determined enemy an-
noying us the whole way. It must be done; and if they
do not come to terms, we must go up to Ummerapoora.
-,,,The mode of annoyance on the part of the enemy is
by fie-rafts Arid war-boats; and as the rainy seas.in is
now coming on, the) will have the advantage of the
dark nights. With these they oblige us to keep a sharp
look out. They also tink large boats to the gunwales,
antiturn them :drift upon us. The force with which
they cone down, aided by the current, is very great.
One nearly came on boat d of us the other night ; it
caught a rope, and the rope cut off a boy's leg as clean
as it it had been amputated. We are going to send 12
of the Madras vessels for 8,000 men, and for provisions.'

SPOIMING INTELLIGENCE.

BETTING-ROOM, TATTERSALL'S, NOV. 18.
From the very unfavourable state of the weather to-day, the bet-
ting•room was attended by very few subscribers, consequently the
betting was Sat; a few bets, however, were made, but they
were for small amounts, and as nearly as possible to the odds of
Monday. 'rbe fights of Tuesday next excited some interest, and
a few engagements were made—Josh Hudson being the favourite
for the one ; and the odds on the other being about even.
The odds on the different stakes were as under t

LOSS OF TIM bu.v GIOVANNI.

Monday last, as this celebrated sailing yacht was re.
turning up the river from a shooting excursion, after 4
severe contest from Southend with a hatch-boat of 22
tons, which she was then beating, she was unfortu-
nately run down by a Scotch brig, and instantly sunk.
The accident took place in the Lower lope, and the
Don was standing on the star board tack, with nearly
a gale at S.W. The brig in question was r trolling
rapidly before the wind, and her velocity was such
that the Don, in endeavouring to pass a-head, became
becalmed under the lee of her sails, and all exertions
made by those on board were fruitless, as the event
which followed was the work of an instant. The fluke
of the brig's anchor first caught her rigging, and her
bows next came in violent contact with the broadside of
the Giovanni, and she immediately went down 4115
fathoms water. Captain Davey was not on board, but
there were three Gentlemen of the names of Harrison,
Duke, and Coleman, and ttichard Cownden, the young
man who sails the vessel. These four persons were all
immersed in the water, and their situation was very
alarming, as there was a considerab!e swell ou-; the brig's
boat, however, quickly came to their assistance, and
happily they were all picked up, but in a very exhausted
state. The Don Giovanni was a new vessel, and her
numerous successes last season doubtless proved her the

tastestqfver-sailing yacht ever built. She had the St.
George's boat in tow, but there was not time to ca•,t her
off, and she was also sunk. The Blossom Gravesend
packet has been sweeping about the spot whet e she went
down, but no traces of her had been discovered when
one of the parties left Gravesend. She is said to have
been engaged for several matches next summer, one of
which, it is said, was to sail against a vessel round the
isle of Wight.

COLONIAL INII2I.IIGENCE.

ANTIGUA, SEPTEMBER 17.
We feel no surprise at Sir Hudson Lowe having de-
clined the Government of this island. Considering the
highly in.portant office he filled at St. Helena, upon
which the peace of all Europe depended, we should
hardly have expected his acceptance of it.
The tempestuous weather which prevailed during the
early pail of this month has been severely felt in the
other i-lands, where much damage has been done.
At Guadeloupe a vessel of war has been totally lost,
with a hundred men. Happily for us, we have hitherto
e-caped the visitation of this scourge of the West Indies.

ST. VINCENT'S, SEPTE3IBER 12.
On Tuesday a half-yearly Court of Grand Sessions
of the Peace was held at the COurt-house.
The trial of the negro man Smith, for the murder of
Thomas Adam•, was the only subject 01 consequence
that came before the above Court ; and from the 'atro-
city of the crime—the fortunate infiequency of such
offences in this community—with the place and cit cum-
stances under which it was committed—very general
attention was excited towards it, and the Court was op-
pressively crowded. Most of the witnesses were ex-
amined as to their opinion of the prisoner's sanity; and
although some circumstances were mentioned from
which it would seem that he r►ccas. ally laboured un-
der a certain aberration of mind, that might have ap-
prOached very nearly to idiotcy, still it did not appear
that he was so affected at the time of committing the
murder, which he no doubt did in a lit of ungovernable
passion. He was accordingly found guilty,. and re-
ceived sentence of death on Wednesday morning.
A Privy Council was, moreover, held yesterday, at
hich Oils man's case was, we believe, again considered,
as his Excellency, the Governor's order to carry the sen-
ter.ce of the law into effect was issued shortly after.
The unhappy man was therefore executed this morning,
in the market-place, about 11 o'clock. He denied the
crime, which was proved against him on the clearest
ciscunistantial evidence, until the last moment, behaved
throughout w ith the same hardened indifference that
he manifested on his trial, and constantly refused spi-
ritual consolation from the ministers of religion, who
visited him in prison, and attended the execution.

READING SAUCE

T COCKS, the Inventor and Proprietor of the
V e CELEBRATED READING SAUCE, begs most re-
spectfully to caution the Nobility, Families, and the Public, against
the daily frauds and impositions practised by many London and
Country Oilmen and Fish Sauce Venders, to deceive and deprive
them of the
GENUINE READING SAUCE.

None are genuine but chose which have the corks sealed with the
impression, " Cocks, Beading," and also the folloviing descrip.
'don of the Sauce cm an orange-coloured label, " Reading Sauce
for Fish, enriching Gravies, &c. Prepared and Sold, Wholesale
and Retail, by J. COCKS, Reading."
This Sauce is generally used at table with all sorts of Fish, in
preference to all other lids Sauces and is esteemed peculiarly dell-
Mous with Game, Wild Fowl, Hashes, Steaks, and Cold Meat.—
'Warranted to keep good Seven Years in any climate. It is
presumed that no Sauce ever met with such general approbation
and extensive oak. It is patronised and recommended by moitof
the Film Fannin in the Kingdom, and itiretailed in London by
150 of the most respectable -Oilmen and Fish Sauce Venders; in
Bath, by 30; Bristol, 20; 'Edinburgh, Glasgow, Perth, and Aber-
deen, 50 ; and ,by nearly ail' the principal Fish Sauce Dealers in

Rose for robbing Mr. Sadgrove, their employer, and Pearson and
his wife for receiving the property, knowing it to have been stolen.
Chambers and 'Lloyd were remanded for further examination.
QUEEN-SQUARE.
The attention of the Magistrates was occupied a considerable
time in determining whether the Commissioners of Pavements, or
the Dean and Chapter of Westminster, were bound to repair ko-
chister-row. On the one hand it was urged, that the Commis-1
slimes having since 1785 collected from the inhabitants of the
row In assessments, .88000. and expended only half that sum in
repairs, were bound to keep the road in repair, though the Com-
missioners had declined receiving any rates during the last two
Team On the other hand it was contended, that the Dean and
Chapter had erected a gate at the end of the row, and received
money annually for permission to pass up and down it, and had done
other acts of ownership ; and that it in feet was a bye-road in the eye
of the law, and a part of Tothill-fields, the whole of which was the
property of the Dean and Chapter.—The Magistrates ordered the
Commissioners to repair the road within two months; but they
gave notice of appeal against this decision.

The Dispatches received from Sir FREDERICK ADAM.
Lord High Commissioner of the lonian Islands, at the
Colonial Office, Downing- street,on Monday, are of diffe-
rent dates, the latest dispatch is of the 23d.0f October
they state—
That after repeated demands Made in his MAJESTY'S
name, in satisfaction for the violation of the territory of
the lonian States in December last, the Provisional Go-
v.rnment of Greece have consented to make the repara-
tion which has been required from them, but not until
Captain Pacneta., the Officer commanding his Majesty's
naval forces in the lonia I Seas, had been under the
necessity :of seizing three Greek armed schooners at
Napoli di Romania.

The French Papers of Monday. and, the Emile of yes-
terday, have been received by express, but they contain
no news. The lientes were on Monday at lOU. Bc. for
money, and 102 f. sc. for time.

Brussels Papers to the 7th reached us this morning.
One of them states that the Greek Senate is about to
appeal to the world, to join in a crusade in order to
rescue the Holy Land and Egypt from the Turks. This
appears to us going somewhat too far. The Greeks
should first achieve their own independence, and then
rest contented with it. The article states that a loan
was raised in London for the Knights of Malta, to
enable them to execute the task of rescuing the Holy
Sepulchre from the Mussulmans. This is erroneous—the
loan was only proposed, but, by all well-informed per-
sons, was thought ridiculous, as the Knights of Malta
have no security to offer. The following are extracts:

A Vim: in Cana's; —Two personiOnsifted Motif Old
Perkins, were charged with edam snid tbreeWrateintsin. •
The first watchinaastated,tbat he was cm duty iss °modes-street
last night, and hearing a cry of Murder! be made for the 9oty aad
found the defendants getting into a Gentleman's gig, which was
waiting. They were seemingly just on the point of driving off
when he came up, and remonstrwted with thetn,'when they jumped
out of the gig, and commenced an attack, saying they were buth
regular millers, though their conduct evinced to the contrary, for
instead of blows, they began biting and kicking; and it was net
until the arrival of two other watchmen that they were securest.
The watchmen 'hewed their hands, which bore strong marks of
having been bitten.
The Magistrate having called upon them for their defence, one
of them said, he and his friend had just arrived in town, and know.
lug the celebrated Cribb, they had paid a visit to him last night,
and might, perhaps, have drank a little too much.
Mr. }Luxe—And did Mr. Cribb teach you to mill in the way
yen did last night?
Defendant—No; Mr. Cribb is a different person; and I deny
that the watchmen were bitten at all.
The Magistrate thought otherwise, and ordered the parties to
find bail.
HATTON.GARDEN.

Three boys were charged by the Street-keeper with daily annoy-
ing the inhabitants of Brunswick-square, itc. by ringing bells
through the streets, In order to excite public attention to their hot
moans and crumpets. A baker stepped forward, and expressed
Ms doubt that such conduct infringed the law ' • but the Magistrate
read from Mr. M. A. Taylor's Act the clause against blowing
horns, or using any other noisy instrument, and set that question at
rest. He, however, dischatged the delinquents, upon their pro-1
mising not to repeat the offence.
ROPIRRY AT MAJOR GAILDINRIL'S, TOIIIIILIDOI WILLLS..— Yes-

on saupicion of being concerned In a burglary and robbery, com-
mitted a few nights back, in the house of Major Gardiner, at Tun.

TRIAL OF ANTONIO BROCUETTI FOR AN ATTEMPT TO

MURDER•

The Court was opened at half-past ten, and the num-
ber of spectators (among whom were several ladies)
was very great. Brochetti is of small stature, of a mild
countenance, with grey and curly hair; he replied in
a calm tone of voice, in a jargon hardly intelligible. A
Dr. Zarchi was ordered to translate his replies. He de-
clared he was born at Rome, and was 40 years of age;
that on first coming to Paris, a year and a half ago, he
had been employed as a servant, and afterwards at the
tobacco manufactory, at twelve sons a day. On his
examination commencing, he admitted that Isacharus
had frequently supplied him with money, and lent him
forty francs. He had forbid Brochetti his house, how-
ever, and he returned for the purpose of demanding the
receipt for the forty francs, because he expected to be
able to pay the sum. He then received from eight to
twelve sous a day. He admitted that he had declared to
a fellow-labourer, he meant, if he could not gain more
money, to blow ha brains out. He h.al no other inten-
tion in going to Isacharus but to borrow 100 francs;l
and did not ask 'for it on the first day, because Isacharus
was engaged. On the day when he made the attempt
he met the Priest a few paces from his own door. lie
entered his kitchen with him, to go into the parlour.
The President remarked that there was no necessity for
this, as there was another entry to the parlour. He de-
nied having had the razor in his hand on entering the
kitchen, and declared he only took it out of his pocket
on being insulted by the Priest, and on iris attacking
him.with a penknife. On being questioned by the Court
by the Priest had attacked him, he said, When I
asked for a loan of 200 francs, and threatened to destroy

THE KING V. FA MILNER AND OTHERS.

Mr. TAUNTON moved for a rule, calling on several
inhabitants of Chester to shew cause why a criminal
information should not be exhibited against them for
riotous conduct at the late election for 'Sheriffs in that
city. The principal defendant, Falkner, was not a free-
man; but his conduct and that of his associates was
very outrageous, and tended to impede the electors in
the discharge of their duty.—The COURT granted a rule.

SPUR 1.% u INJ ELLIGENCE.

FOX 14 .;NT.
The Cartmel Fox Hounds, kept by several real sportsmen, prin-
cipally farmers and tradesmen, unkennelled a fox near Grange, in
Cartmel. The dogs being in high condition, and a dtficate scent-
ing morning, reynard was pursued at an incredible rate, and in a
style which did credit to the managers of such a pack ; they swept
away through the culbers northward, crossing the lands a little
south of Newton, returned by Hantpsfield, and took the ridge of
hills in view of Cartmel, which had an imposing effect on the
inhabitants, and more particularly so, it being the Cattle Fair there.
They then made a long sweep southward, and, after a desperate
chace of upwards of two hours, the fox took refuge in an earth, not
far from his den. This afforded a temporary asylum to the poor
brute, alas ! but of short duration, for terriers were brought,
and though he kept them at bay for some time, he was finally
forced to quit hie hold and depend on the lightness of his heels;
this scheme, however, after all his cunning shifts, proved unavail.
ing, for the staunch noses of his pursuers roused him from every
retreat; and after about two hours second chace, during which he
gave the spectators at Carmel another treat, he finally fell a vic-
tim to the determined fangs of the hounds on Yewbarrow, after
having run, on a moderate compUtation, not less than between
thirty and forty miles. The head and tail were taken in triumph,
as trophies of victory, and exhibited to the gszing multitude at
Carmel Fair.
WALKING BACKWARDS.
A match took place on the New Cut in Bristol, on Monday Intl
between Townsend and a respectable tradesman. Townsend gave
his opponent thirty yards in half a mile, to walk backwards. The
tradesman was blown after walking only two hundred yards;
Townsend passed him at the quarter of a mile, and won the match
in five Minutes and a half.

SPARRING.
The fame of Josh Hudson, and the desire to see his condition,
drew together an immensely crowded Court yesterday; the condi-
tion of Josh was truly fine. Instead of three stone of offali 26
pounds weight has been taken from him, and he will go into the
Ring under 13 stone. The seta-to were very good.
Josh in the end mounted the stage, and in a few words returned
thanks. The crowd then departed, and a 'considerable number of
the Corinthians then proceeded to fir. Pledger's, in 11uorgate,
where the final deposit of the 1,000 sovereigns, foe which Josh and
Cannon are to light, was made good.
Josh is in first-rate condition, and was freely backed at five to
four. He has left London again for his raining-ground. Cannon
is also in prime order, and will admit of no other conclusion to the
fight than his own success. The stage will be meted 90 miles
from London.

r*ventie, tine extension of commerce, the internal prrt-
*perky of the country, the opening of new aannels-for
our produce and manufactures, the attempt to mitigate
•
the situation of slaves, and to suppress the infamous
traffic—are events which ate calculated to .render the
Ministers popular, they are entitled to popularity. We
put out of the questicn the preservation of the country
from a war in which Mr. Hoattousa and some ardent
spirits wished to involve us, because we believe the
Honourable Gentleman himself is now satisfied of the
wisdom of that policy, to which he was twelve mon.:.s
ago so much opposed.
Another political discussion took place yesterday in
the Common Council, on the motion of Ntr.R.TAyLnu,
on the subject of the Alien Act. As we have an ac-
count of the proceedings in another page, it is the less
necessary to advert to the subject. One Gentleman,
Mr. WELCH, in imitation of the Country Parson who
wished "to sing to the praise and glory of Gon a psalm
of his own composing," proposed to read a song he had
written; but the LORD MAYOR, who "has no music
in his soul," would not permit him. Now, really we
think his Lordship-to blame. Mr. WELCH'S song was,
no doubt, a substitute for his speech ; and whin his
Lordship is compelled to hear so many speeches,
that have neither rhyme nor reason in them, he should
have listened to that of Mr. WELCH, which no doubt
possessed one of these qualities. Had we been LORD
MAYOR, we should have caused the verses to be printed
for the use of the Court—deposited the original among
the archives of the City, and have revived that long
abolished office, the City Laureat, in the person of Mr.
WELCH; nor would the Gentleman think himself dis-
honoured by the appointment, when he was told that
BEN JONSON once held the' office, although we Must
confess that he afterwards gave up what -he called the
" chandlery pension" in disgust. ,

MR. Wnsrs MATCH.

This celebrated pedestrian started at sit o'clock on Tees(lay
evening to go to Dover and back, from Westminster Midge, in 5.i
hours, for 200 sovereigns. He returned to Westminster Brid;_. .:
18 minutes within his time.

A Correspondent says, it is not correct, as generally credited
that the feat of trotting 1 4 miles in harness, as done by Mr. Gi:e
horse, of Leadcnhalt•market, is the first on record; it was done ca
the 21st May, 1808, by a chesnut horse, the property of ..r. Mi-
chael Weston, driven by Mr. Charles Hal, on the Huntingdon
road, in 55 minutes and 13 seconds, in consequence of a h t of '.1.:10
to 100 guineas against the undertaking. There is an etching, by
no means scarce, of the undertaking, by Pollard, from a drawing
by Sartorius. The horse was afterwards the property of thc Mar-
quis of Huntley.

Ilanlan, the Irish pugilist, intends.flguring again in the Ring.

BURGLARY.—lnformation was yesterday received at
Hatton-garden Police-office of the dwelling-house of
Wildy, of Noble-street, Spafields, being burglari-
ously entered on Tuesday night, between the hmrs of
nine and ten o'clock. It appeared that the family were
sitting in a back parlour, when they were :lamed by
the screams of an infant which had been sleeping in
the front parlour, which was used as a bed-room. Oa
Mrs. IVildy's rushing in to a_certain what was the
matter, she found the infant lying on the floor ; all the
bed-clothes, with the bolster and pillows, were taken
away, and many other articles which were loose in the
room. The window was open, and a hole was cut in the
shutter, through which the burglars the sash. In
their hurry to tear the clothes off the bed, they dashed
the infant on the floor, and but fur its screams, they
would probably have entirely emptied the loom. Tie
fellows effected their escape.
