A/iT ADVERTISING CONVKI.

Hawkins, the convict, who some months ifp. while nn a journey
in a caravan, with several other convicts, to Prwitnouth, in order
to go upon lite voyage to-liotany lity for life, sawed. off lila fetters
and escaped, has been retaken. He had pursued the occupation of
a thief atter his escape; and at Plymouth was, we understand,
successful in his old e.ipacity. At last, having got tivey with a
female poi, he went out to pick pockets, and he awkwardly thrust
his right hand into the pocket of one Gentleman, and his left into
that of-another. He was at once apprehended, and soon recognised
as the culprit who had escaped.. There is something rrntarkahle in
the history of this convict. As 'soon as he reached Plymouth he
advertised for a wife, and was soon waited upon by a number of
Ladies, who calculated upon the perfections of the advertiser, but
were miserably diiappointed. It was in vain he represented that,
he was a Gentleman, and that he would prove a must excellent
husband and steady friend. Crime had set its brand upon him—
not one of the numerous applicants for a husband would look a
second time at him, and he was obliged to rob on in the old way.
It is mid that some of the most experienced thieves in London
have got wives by giving similar public notice of their inclinations
—swindlers have been for a long time in the habit of resorting to
this practice. It must be very grateful to them, that the lower
orders in the same trade are now entering into competition with
them. Hawkins was brought up to Newgate, and on Thursday
was sent off to Puttsmouth, from whence he will sail for life.

DOVER, FLB. 13.

Arrived the Britannia steam vessel, Captain Bushell,
from Boulogne, having on board her Highness, 01
Princeu of Polignac, her family, and suite. The Pritle
is not expected for some weeks, public matters of
portance requiring his presence in Paris. Soon aftbrithe,
arrival of the Britannia, the Sovereign, Capt. Hayward',
and Le Duc de Bordeaux, Capt. Fiona, came in with
about 100 passengers, who had been detained at Calais
tw•o days by the severity of the weather. Amongst them,
Count Mandehtop, Charge d'Affaire, from Wirtentberg.

Le Sieur Dorr, Courier., front Vienna.
Le Sieur Kruger, do. from Berlin.
Le Sieur Wacksam, do. from Stockholm.

Ur. Klan, and Le Sic ur Brue, do. from Paris, all with dispatches.

Monday last, at eight o'clock, A.M. the Countess of
Craven, with her daughter, Lady Louisa, and brother,
Major Brunton, embarked at this port in the Sovereign,
Captain Hayward, for Calais ; and we regret to hear,
from its blowing a strong gale from the east, attended
with a thick and incessant fall of snow, which continued
24 hours, thereby preventing the Captain from distin-
guishing the French land. Her Ladyship and family
were subjected to the distressing situation of being a
whole night at sea in very dreadful weather, the vessel
not being able to get into Calais harbour till Tuesday
morning, at nine o'clock.

THE WELLESLEY PEERAGE.

By the investiture of Sir HENRY WitareraT, now
Lord Cowasr, with the honours of the Peerage, an instance is
afforded unprecedented. except in the Royal blood, of four brothers
'being at once entitled to sit in the British House of Peers. In
linlaud, nuoble fraternity somewhat similar once existed, for the
.first nn4 great Earl of. Cork had four sons, who were all Peers; bet
'the patalkl falls short in this particular, that one of them was dead
before' the fourth received his title. Thbre are, however some other
points of singular coiecidence between the two great Irish families
.ertlbsyle and Wellesley. The first Earl of Cork and the late Earl
'et.filsrolnitrabsd each eeven sons; of whom in both cases, two
died ionng ; our were and are, as before noticed, Peers; and the
sevedtllNvas Shd le, preauded from a similar fortune; the celebrated
, Rdbfft4lejlel by'Vttotaldewitiun to science; and the Reverend
estideVaitriskr.Wargiesiey, by his dedicaktofito chi Church. Lord
Cowley takes that,titl%• it'belng the original name of the funny°,
Wellesley.

seeing in the league- of Sir Pultenty those of an bottomed
friend. can vouch for its being ins.) may have been
painted the more willingly, because it gave the artist 1111
opportunity of discharging his spleen, while contrasting
the appearance of the Admiral with that of the Governor,
in a manner mi•st unfavourable to the latter. Neverti ele-s

man. He carries his bead erect, and speaks out openly

make every person desirous of a farther acquaintances

Pulteney Malcolm was also much recommended to NA-

Mr. Honks was instructed to apply for an injunction

the vacation, without 'valve to the def Want; the Court
thinking polite Ought to be given, r.:tused them the ap
~lication. Notice Had now been seprlatly setved, but
the defendant did not appear. The facts of the case were
portly these. The plaintiff was the ovine, of a ship called
the Hat wry, w Lich in i 826 went from London to New
V nob %Vales, and was to touch at various ports. The
plaintiff had forme: I y been in the habit of accompanying
he ship himself, hut upon the present occasion, in conse•
(pence of ill health, he had appointed the delendant.who
was neatly related to him, as the sup-: cargo. Upon the
Lip arriving at Ply nu uth,the passenger- expressed their
dissatisfaction at the conduct of Mt. Evans. A letter
was then sent to the defendant by tl e plaintiff, request-
ing him to return, but this he refused to do. The ship
teached her destination in safety. The defendant had
eceived large sums of money on account of freight,
and with this had bought goods. Upon the ship ar-
riving safe in Landon, in August last, t;ie defendant
preceetle I to sell hart f the goods, and refused to
account with the plaintiff fir the proceeds thereof,
U, on this state of things the Learned Counsel asked
the Court for an injunction to restrain the defendant
from receiving the purchase money for the goods not
yet paid for, and also to re,train him from selling the
goods that were unsold.—His LORDSHIP granted the
injunction.

Some other witnesses were examined in support of
the case; and the Chairman having summed up the
evidence, the Jury found Oe defendants Guilty; but
recommended them to mercy on the ground that they

the interests of science.

The CHAIRMAN said that the Court could not pass a
slight sentence for such an offence, but would take time
to consider the subject. The defendants might be dis-
charged on entering into recognisance' to appear next

The ease excited an extraordinary degree of interest,
and the Court was excessively crowded.

MR. LONG WELLESLEY AND MR. DR'CRRSPICK.
Thursday a duel was fought on the Sands at Calais, between lit
Long Wellesley and Mr. De Crespigny. The dispute originatdi
in a remark made by Mr. Wellesley respecting some pans.
the conduct of Mr. De Crespigny's father. Pie was requested
to retract it ; and on his refusal a challenge was sent him .4
the two Mr. De Crespignys, which he accepted, when all the
parties immediately proceeded•from Dover to Calais. Colonel lohn
Freemantle, of the Guards, was second .to Mr. Long Wellesley.
and Captain Brooke, also of the 'Guards, attended his antagonist. De
duel was fought on the sands Immediately after the arrival of the
seconds. Both parties fired together on a signal given, at the distaste
of ten pees; and neither of them happening to be wounded, de
seconds immediately Interfered. A question here arose with respect
to the second challenge, as to how far it was, or was not to be ac-
cepted, when Captain Brooke decided that Mr. Long Wellesley
had done as much as he could be required. Tinder this impres•
sine the parties left the ground, and returned from Calais on Friday
morning to' oyer, and set off to London almost immediately, ia
their respective carriages.

SOUTHAMPTON, jerrts 21.

During the past week the town of Southampton has
been thrown into a state of great excitation, in conse-
quence of the following dreadful circumstance :—Mr."
White, a master baker, who wild Very much respected
by his brother tradesmen in the town, had a family,
consi.ting of a wife and five children. In the early part
of the week he obtained some intimaiion that his wife
was in the habit of receiving the visits of a resident of
the town, named Macdonald. Macdonald was a friend
of White's, and at first he doubted whether Macdonald
could be guilty of violating friendship by seducing his
wile: he, however, determined to use an artifice, by
which he thought he might be able to ascertain if a
criminal intercourse existed between the parties. Ile
informed his wife that he was about to spend the even.
ing with a convivial party, at a tavern in the town, and
he should not return home till a late hour. Instead of
going to the tavern, he secreted himself in a place ad-
joining his parlour, in the partition of which he had
bored a hole. In about an hour after he had concealed
himself, he heard Macdonald arrive, and in a few mi-
nutes he was an eye-witness of the guilt of the parties,
And of his own dishonour. Armed with a knife, he came
from his ►iding place, and rushed upon Macdonald,
who attempted to escape, but was not able to do so, and
he received.a ,wound in the neck from the hand of
White, Which severed the carotid artery, and laid him
on the floor a lifeless corpse. White then threw down
the knife, and ordered a constable to be sent fur, to
whom be surrendered himself, to await tbe result of the
verdict of the Coroner's Jury. He was conveyed to
prison ; and the Coroner, on. Friday, held an Inquest on
the body of Macdonald. Evidence was given that his
death was caused by a wound inflicted in his neck with
a knife, by White. at a time when hocsught him in the
act of adultery with his wife ; and the Jury, under the
direction of the Coroner, returned a verdict of Map-
slaughter against White.

DUCHESS OF CLARENCE'S GRAND PARTY.

Friday night the Duchess of CLARENCE gave a second
grand party this season, which was crowded to excess,
owing to the company who had been invited to a party
appointed to take place on the .12th inst. (but which
was postponed in consequence of the indisposition of
the Royal Duchess), having received invitations for the '
present entertainment. The company began to arrive
soon after nine o'clock, and continued setting down till
pa-t one o'clock. At one time the string of carriages
reached from the Admiralty to the Crescent in'Oxferd-
str eet, and some of company remained in their carriages
nearly two hours before they were set down; some even
alighted at Charing-cross, and walked from thence to I
the ent.ance in the court yard. There were supposed to
he between two and three thousand persons present.
The Royal Family, and a number of others, were .ad-
mitted by the entrance fem the Park. The whole suit
of rooms were most brilliantly illuminated. and•every
possible arrangement was made for the accommodation
and convenience of this very numerous assemblage. Two
porters, in their state liveries, witb.large scarfs of purple.
and gold lace, holding staffs seven feet high, with the
Royal arms on stars at'the top, were stationed at the en-
trance. The Hall was lined with servants, in their state
liveries, and in the first room were the pages in their state
uniforms of purple and gold, who ushered the company
into the presence of the Royal Duchess, who received
her numeroustuests in the most affable and condescend-
ing manner. Her Royal Highness was accompanied
by her Royal husband, and was attended by her ,Royal
Highness's Ladies in Waiting. Therrefreshmegts, con-
sisting of the greatPst delicacies, including the most
choice fruits, and in the great st abundance, were served
in the drawing room at the end of the suite of state
apartment-, so as not to intetifee with the connections
of the other rooms in which the company assembled.—
The company had not all left at near three o'clock
Among those present were— . •
Their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of Cumberland and Sussex
Prince Leopold, the Duchess of Gloucester, the Duchess of 'Kent'
the Princess Sophia Matilda ; Monsieur Nick, the Ambassador
from the Netherlands, and Madame Feick; Count d'Alcudia, the
Spanish Minister, and Countess d'Alcudia ; Count d'Ofatia, the
Spanish Minister, on a special mission ; Baron Below, the Prussian
Minister, and troness Bulow ; Count de Moltke, the Danish
Minister; Baron Italamb, the Swedish Charge d'Affaires • Count
Ludolf, the Neapolitan Minister, and Countess Ludolf; •Count
d'Aglie, the Sardinian Minister; Baron Cetto, the Bavarian
Minister; Count de Mandeslobe, the Wirtemberg Minister; Mr.
Lawrence, the American Charge d'Affaires • Senor Madrid, the
Colombian Minister; Monsieur Rocafuerte, the Mexican Minister;
the Primate of Iceland, the Bishop of London, the Master of th
Rolls, Lord Tenterden, the Attorney and Solicitor Generals,lke.
The Company had not all retired at nearly three o'clock.

THE ARMY.

Delius, Jam It —Yesterday (the anniversary of the battle of
'Waterloo) a grand Review took place in the Phalli: Park, the
toad to which was crowded at an early hour, and the various
avenues to the scene of action was thronged with pedestrians. The
;as Hussars was the first in the field, and that splendid Regiment
the Scots Greys almost immediately followed. The hand of the
latter was magnificently dressed, and excited universal admiration.
The Ladles Paget arrived at bait-past twelve in an open carriage,
which was drawn up close to the Standard. The line was formed
shortly afterwards, and at one o'clock his Excellency left the Vice.
regal Lodge, and proceeded to the field, attended by his Aids tie
Camp, and a body of the 7th Hussars. His Excellency wore the
magnificent dress of that Regiment, and was only distinguishable
from any other Officer by a small star. His two younger sons rode
with him throughout the day. He appeared to be in fine health
and spirits, and was evidently delighted with the scene before him.
His feelings must have been truly enviable; and in superintending
the commemoration of an event which has added one of the most
splendid gems ►o the diadem of England's glory, he could not for-
get his own noble achievements in that field, the result of which
has shed imperishable honour on his name. Every body knows
that hollow squares, movements in eschelors, and matters of that
description, are the natural consequences of a Grand Review, and
herefore, as far as the military were concerned, they did their
duty nobly, and in the course of their exhibition of Sechyste sent
many a happy groupe scampering across the field. The Officers
and soldiers of the different Regiments had laurel in their caps, and
a great number wore Waterloo medals. The Regiments left the
geld at three o'clock. His Excellency entertained a large party in
the evening at the Viceregal Lodge.

The private letters from Paris. this morning state.
that the French packet from Vera Cruz had arrived at
Bourdeaus; she sailed on the 18th February. The
country was tranquil, and CV111111)C1CC began to revive.
The above letters also state, that no apprehensions were
entertained of a Continental war.

The letters by the Tut key Mail, received yesterday,'
are upon the whole of a much more cheering chatac
ter, and do not appear to be written under the feeling,
of excessive alarm, which chatacteliz,..d those received

that the change of Ministry in this country may pi.

DUTCH AND GERMAN PAPERS.

HAGUE. Aram 6.
After the conclusion of the Concordat with the Papal
See, it was expected that the Bishops from the Nether-
lands would be immediateiy nominated. This nomina-
tion, however, has not yet been made ; .and hence it is
supposed that some difficulties must have arisen in the
execution of the Concordat. One of our Journals, which
pretends to be well informed of what passes at Rome,
says that the difficulties have arisen there. The Courier
dein Meuse attributes the &lay to the difficulties which
'have arisen between our 'Court and that of Rome,
respecting the induction of persons designed for the
I Church, and thinks that the well known Circular of his
Excellency the Minister of the Interior, of sth October
last year, has been the chief cause of them.

We- learn from Luxemburg, that the proceedings
against the Prussian Lieut. Von Lobenthal, who killed
a travelling merchant', clerk, are ended. That officer
was condemned to death ; but his Majesty.the King of
Prussia has commuted the punishment to imprisonment
for life in a fortress, with loss of his rank as a Nobleman,
•
and a declaration that he is unworthy of ever being
employed in the public service. Lieut. Poppe, Lobel).
that's accomplice, is sentenced to 25 years' imprisonment,
and Colonel Beaufort, Commander of the Regiment,
who is considered asThe ptincipal cause of the unhappy
event, to twelve years imprisonment. Other Officers
who were more or less concerned, are sentenced to
slighter degrees of.punishmenr.
