TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR.

Sta—The inference to be drawn from the statement which ap-
peared in the Seal of the sth instant, respecting the Commis-
'Mutat Department in North America, is, that this Department
Is favoured, by being too numerously employed. Without enter-
jog at this moment into a review of the necessity which may
-exist for dm employment of so many persons, I trust to your
Impartial/4pm refute this supposition of favearit ism, by giving pub-
licity to thefollowing facts :—the pay and allowance of the Com-
missariat date been lately reduced in the following proportions :
Deputy Commissary-General, 465. to 4is. 6d. per day—reduc-
tion, 38 per cent.
AssistantCommissary-General, ads. 3d. to 14‘ 3d. per day—
ceduetiasks.44 per oespt. -
Deploy :Kant-Commissarrtreneral, 17s. 6d. to Oa. 6d. per day
—reduction, 46 per cent.
The minor duties of the CommlsearLtt, and which have been
heretofore attended to by the Clerks, (whose names did not ap-
pear in the Army List, and who have been lately discharged
without any permanent provision,) are now attended to by the
Junior Officers, and who, in consequence of this additional duty,
have been favoured by a diminution of 46 per cent. from their
original income.—Had your Correspondent fired his charge of
favouritism direct at the Storekeeper-General's Department, the
Junior, most inconsiderable, and yet, most unaccountably, the
most liberally requited Department of the Army, whether Civil
or Military, he would have hit the target id the bull's eye.
Pray, why is not the pay of the Storekeeper-General's Depart-
ment stated in the Army Last ?—1 am, Sir, /cc.

" Although the regulations respecting goods in transit, as fixed
by Article 162, have been found sufficient, experience, however,
has proved that the law was too lenient with regard to some ar-
ticks of trade, above all, in respect to those of which manufacto-
ries and trades are established in this kingdom. Those interested
therein have not omitted to make representations against them,
and it is for those reasons that his Majesty has judged fit that
the transit Dudes on Refined Sugar, Cottons, Threads, and Ca-
licoes, Woollens, and other manufactures, should be increased.
" With regard to the list or scale of dudes affixed to the law
of the 3d October, 1816, it has given rise to many objections,
observations, and representations, all of which have experienced
due attention and consideration.

" Your High Mightiness.. will, I trust, allow me to enter into
some particulars with regard to some of the principal articles, and
to state, shortly, the reasons which have given birth to the alte-
rations alluded to.

" Tug-rtsru.—The impart duty was fixed at 30 savers per
1004 this regulation has created many objections, particularly
since this article is manufactured to a considerable extent, and
excellent quality, In some of our provinces. The inquiries made
go that subject have confirmed that fact, and the interest of there
manufacturers has not made Us hesitate to increase the Import
Duty on thin article, and to place the manufactured and lackered
tin-plate work also on an equality with such increase.
" The article of hides and skins, as appears in the Tariff, are
charged particularly on the exportation, so as to favour our tan-
neries, and the interests of the latter have caused his Majesty to
make some alterations.

" Lace, made of thread, has been charged to the Tariff frith
the scale duty only, on account of our own manufacture being
considered of such superior quality, that nothing was appre-
hended from foreign competition. Experience, however, has
taught us, that the industry of our neighbours has produced jast
doubts upon that subject, particularly with regard to lace manu-
factured with machinery. To remove these difficulties, his Ma-
jesty has not hesitated to fix an Import Duty on lace, and to lay
such regulations befone your High Mightinesses, so that thi
branch of national industry my be supported and encouraged,ficc.'.
ANTWERP, FEBRUARY 6.

It is affirmed that the King of France has just
granted permission to the thirty-eight persons exiled
to return to his dominions. What seems to confirm
,this news is, that General Fressinet, who has resided
for some time in this city, and who for some days
past kept himself concealed to escape the eye of the
Police, has just received permission to appear in pub-
lk. Some persons say that this permission is accom-
panied with an order to embark on board the first
vessel that shall sail for America, whither he has ex-
pressed a desire to go.

HUNTING.

The Hamilton crack Foxhounds had the quickest and the
longest run that was ever known in the Middle Ward, Lanark.
The fox was unkennelled at Jerviston, two miles and a half from
Hamilton, from that he took towards Stevenston Moor, and
from thence he pointed his course to Oeyland ; then tried the
Earths of Knowble Burn, crossing over to Sir James Stewart's
woods and policy ; leaving that, he made his point up a burn
towards Shotts Kirk ; he there took to the open moors, and was
killed in a plantation in the extremity of the Shotts Parish,—
This chase was anore like a race than a hunt; and only a couple
and a half of the hounds could be seen, and a tarrier belonging
to the hunt was the pilot to the sportsmen. The whole of the
I chase was without a check; and It is said by the sportsmen that
the fox was one of. the finest ever seen in Lanarkshire. The
hounds were so exhausted that they could only kill their fox, and
could not eat him : the greatest part were lying beside him.

PEDESTRIANISM.

Couriartox or rna cmitaarrr Panarraws PaaroamANca avast
arcoanro.--The 600 miles in ten days, in which task a Mr.
Wativvroaru, an Oxfordshire yeoman, failed on the 29th ult.
after having performed 456 miles in eight days, was completed
on Wednesday night, at eleven o'clock, by Mr. Howsan, at
Kaaresford, who walked over a two-milt piece of ground,
Weirruoans having engaged to touch on Sixteen Counties.—
This match is beyond the compass of the powers of any horse,
and no task any thing like it has ever before bieen recorded of
man. The pedestrian finished his work well on the first six days,
and he had done 390 miles (30 more than his ground.) On Sun-
day he began to flag with swollen legs, but he did 56 miles. He
was 18 hours doing 57 miles on Monday, and bathing bad re-
leased hint in some measure. On Tuesday he was 19 hours per-
forming 52 miles, and he was not expected to be able to go on
the last day from excessive fatigue. He had 45 miles to win the
match, and he started at it at two o'clock in the morning, pro-
ceeding
at first under three miles an hour. At four o'clock, r. st.l
he went to bed, having done 51 miles. He bad 14 miles to do
in eight hours, and he rose again at seven o'clock, and won the
match soon after eleven o'clock, distressed in a manner not easily.
described. It was for 200 guineas.

CORN EXCHANGE, MARIC4AIII3, FEE. ls.—Our
,market was well supplied with Wheat from Suffolk
this morning, and that of fine quality was taken off'
at last Monday's prices.—We had a large arrival of
Barley from the above county, as well as from Nor-
folk, yet prime samples were readily disposed of on
the same terms as on Wednesday ; but the inferior
sorts are still unsaleable.—Beans are 1 s. per quarter
dearer.—ln Peas and Oats no alteration.

THE AR3II".

The Army Estimates for the year 1818 have been
printed, by order of the House of Commons. The to-
tat number, including officers and non-commisioned
officers, is 133,539 ; from which are to be deducted
the troops in France, and the regiments for service in
India, amounting to 42,892. There will then remain
exclusive of corps, &c. intended for reduction,
190,617. To this last number is to be added, corps
I ordered home from India, viz. 4,299, and charges
for corps to be reduced in 1818, viz. 4,200, making
together 99,146. From these again are to be deduc-
ted the corps ordered home from India, 4,299, and
there remains to be provided for in 1818,-a total of
94,847 men, including officers. The total expense of
providing for this army is estimated at 6,494,2901.

ELECTION FOR THE CITY OF LONDON.

The Election for the City closes this day at three
o'clock. The great struggle lies between Sir WIL-
LIAM CURTIS and Mr. Alderman Tironv—the three
other Candidates having already secured such majo-
ritics as are supposed to place their election beyond
all doubt. The interest of Sir WILLIAM is under-
stood to have been very nearly exhausted in the course
of yesterday, the Worthy Baronet having at the close
of the poll brought up his Committee, which was his
corps a reserve, while the Committees of the other
three Candidates still remained unpolled. With
this dernier succour, however, he only gsined
129 ahead of Alderman THORP, and this forenoon,
in consequence of the Members of the three Com-
mittees all uniting in polling for Alderman THORP,
the latter has again taken the start of the Baronet.
At eleven o'clock he was 16 ahead of Sir WILLIAM ;
at twelve he had increased his majority to 42, and
at one o'clock the Poll stood as follows:

SOUTIIIV.4RK ELECTION:

Yesterday, when the multitude assembled as usual,
about ten o'clock, it was announced that Mr. BAR-
CLAM had declined, and that consequently Mr. CAT.•
VERT and Si: ROBERT WILSON were chosen as the
two Representatives of the Borough. The loudest
and most enthusiastic applause followed this an
nouncement, and Mr. C.►Lvenr stepped forward to
address the Electors.

Mr. CALvaat commenced by expressing his deep
sense of gratitude for the proud situation in which
he was placed. He then adverted to the Mint votes,
which were now allowed to be good, although an
attempt had been made, not by Mr. C. Barclay, but
by Mr. Florence Young (the 'Magistrate), to disfran-
chise them. It was right the saddle should be laid
on the right horse, and he conceived Mr. Florence
Young had, by this attempt, deszroyed all hi•; influ-
ence in St. George's; where he would never, on an-
other canvass, attempt to appear again. Ile then
expla;ned the vote given by Mr. C. B relay about
the Corn Bill, and acquitted that GJa‘leman (their
late Representative) of any design to support the
measure, although he sanctioned its going into Com-
mittee. He concluded by assurances of pursuing the
same course of conduct which had obtained him the
favour and honour he now enjoyed.

Sir ROBERT Wit.sos then addressed the Electors :
his feelings were so agitated by various emotions,
that he was quite r.mlerved, and more disposed to
shed tears than make a speech. He was overpowered
almost as mach as he had once seen a veteran French
Grenadier, on the retreat from Moscow, who was.
sitting with other comrades over the embers of 'a
burning hoTel, and surrounded by dead bodies of
men and horses. Some of this wretched band were
employed in picking and eating the flesh off the
back of a corpse half consumed. Sir Robert Wilson,
exhausted by fatigue, hunger, and cold, was obliged
to stop, and whiht stopping, a Russian soldier gave
him a piece of bread. The Veteran, whose eyes were
scliaaned with death, threw such a wistfulness into
that was irresistible, and Sir Robert Wilson
gave him the bread. He seized it, and was about

had told 11r. Bush that she was sent by Mrs. Fawcet.
—John George, while making a distress on Bush's
goods, heard Mrs. Fawcet say to her son— John, I
think I have seen Fawcet pass, I have got a knife in
readiness for him, and the moment he comes in
I'll certainly plunge it into his heart." He saw her
at the samelime shewing the knife.
Mr. ADOLPIIUS proposed to put in a letter, which
had been written by the prisoner to his son. before his
death, imploring him to come home to his residence,
and declaring his affection for him.
Mr. Baron GRAHAM objected to this being put in
as evidence, but allowed the prisoner to adopt it in
substance as part of his defence. His Lordship then
proceeded to charge the Jury, and said all that Bush
had given in evidence, and indeed the whole of the
evidence for the prisoner, was extraneous. That the
prisoner killed his son, was beyond all doubt. If he
did so wilfully, it was murder ; if he did so unin-
tionally, but meaning to kill Cush or any other per-
son, it was murder. He deplored, much as any
individual, the evils, and wrongs, and cruelties which
had been heaped upon the defendant. They came
home to every heart who had heard them. but there
was a rule and guide of law to he strictly adhered to,
from which himself and the Jury were not to depart.
He felt it extremely difficult to extend the benefit of
this construction of law to the prisoner ; but it was
for the Jury to judge for themselves.
The Jury continued in anxious and earnest consul-
tation for nearly half an hour. Some of them occa-
sionally exhibited symptoms of vehement agitation.
The Court was excessively crowded, and continued
all this time in profound expectation. At length the
Jury turned round, and assumed their places. Their
Foreman pronounced the verdict—Not Guilty.
Marks of satisfaction were evident within the Ear.
The multitude without could not be restrained from
expressing their joy and approbation aloud. The
prisoner, who had been deeply affected during the
whole of the trial, was now completely overpowered
He was immediately discharged from the Bar.

Gexeccxem,
ADISSOLUTION of PARLIAMENT having
taken place, I am encouraged Kcain to offer myself as a
CANDIDATE to Represent you in PARLIAMENT.
I am aware of the great trust reposed in your Representa-
tives, but flattering myself that I have not betrayed that trust,
I hope I shall not be considered as presumptuous in asking you
for your Votes and InteAst to re-elect me one of your Repre-
sentatives, assuring you that no attention on my part shall be
wanting to fill that situation with diligence and fidelity.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your most obedient very humble Servant,

entertained by the Serjeant of the Watch, he was the
next night ordered into custody, and upon his per
was found the Watch, and in the watch-box that
he had occupied, the breeches. It was also in proof
that Shea obtained two £1 notes in change for a £2
note, early the same morning.
The RECORDER summed up the evidence, and the
Jury found Shea—Guilty of the stealing.
The prosecutor appli-:d for his expenses ; hut the
RECORDER refused, observing, that if men chose to
go with such women, they must abide the consequen-
ces attendant upon it.
The following were also convicted of felony, viz.
J. Dunn, for stealing a suit, of clothes; Jane Conway, for
stealing a watch ; Eliz. Golding, for stealing four yards of lace ;
J. Payne, for stealing a shirt, two pair of cotton stockings, &c.
S. Weller, for stealing five rabbits; F. W. Wkitter, for steal-
ing a pair of shoes ; Jane Massey, for stealing five shifts ; J.
Midworth, for stealing a pair of boot legs ; Caroline !Ablate,
for stealing a shirt ; J. Jones, for stealing a chissel; Catharine
S okes, for stealing a piece of black crape ; J. llolyland, alias
Neale, for stealing thirteen gold rings; and F. Collis, for steal-
ing divers Bank-notes.,
Robert Rigalfford was indicted for rece;ving a
large quantity of Leghorn and chip hats, the pro-
perty of Mr. Charles Gatfield, a straw-hat manufac-
turer. It appeared that the prosecutor had been rob-
bed of property to a great amount by a servant, who,
being detected, gave up the prisoner as the receiver.
—Guilty.
The COMMON SER YEANT addressed the prisoner.
The Jury had found him guilty of a crime, which
fortunately for him, came before the Court as a rills
demeanour: his conviction could not affect his life,
nor cause him to be sent out of the country. But of
what was he found guilty ? Of having induced a
man to plunder his master, who gave him bread—of
having been implicated in one of the greatest frauds
that could come before a Court of Justice. The
sentence of the Court therefore was, that he should
he confined ore year in the House of Correction, and
give security for his future good behaviour, himself
in £4O, and two others in £2O each, and that he be
imp. isoned till such security be found.
Bridget Maloney was indicted for carrying away
Margaret Davis, aged two years, and in a second'
count with intent to steal the clothes. The prosecu-
tor resides in Bartlett's-buildings, Holborn, and oa
the 12th of May the infant was at play, and the pri-
soner was observed to take the child up in her arms,
and was carrying it away ; but upon being followed,
she said she /Ms going to take it to its mother, point-
, ing towards Fleet-market, which was quite opposite
, to the direction where the prosecutor lived.—Several
, people gave her an excellent character.—Not Guilty.
The following were also acquitted, viz.;
. W. Crouch, J. Wilson, Eliz. Atkins, W. Jackson, Mary Jack-
son, and C.filiara.

RAMSGATE, APRIL 28.

Earl ROMNEY is here with his famoy, occupying
Albion House, which his Lordship has taken for a
month or six weeks. We are looking forward to a
full season this year: since the last, many new lodg-
ing-houses, of the first class, have been built, and are
now fitting up. Our market is enlarging, and, when
finished, will be a very great improvement to the
town, which is about to be lighted up with gas.
On Sunday afternoon, about four o'clock, we ex-
periznced a most severe hail storm, with thunder and
lightning, which lasted about a quarter of an hour. i
It was preceded by an April shower of heavy drops,
and rather unusual heat, for the season, in the early
part of the day. The hail stones which fell were of a
larger description than any ever witnessed by the
oldest i. habitant—many of them actually measured
two inches in circuLyei-ence, and had the appearance
of solid pieces of ice : several windows were broken
by them ; and had the wind been high at the time,
the destruction in this way must have been great.
The evening proved fine, but the lightning was vivid
and incessant for some hours.

It will be seen by the following document that the
Port of Dunkirk is to be considered- in future as a
Port of France under the' Navigation Act:

TAYLOR,. 44. V OF LADY roots?, v. VIM

CORNTE4S OF ANTRIM AND LORD STEWART.

This ease arises from a matrimonial alliance, Or-
tenad between Lady Tempest, daughter of the COM..
tess of Antrim, a ward in Chancery, and Lard &tn.
,art, the brother of Lard Castlereagh. The Noble
suitor is admitted to be more than double the age' of
the fair heiress. Mr. M. A. Taylor, es one of her
guardians; presented a petition on p fbrmer day to
the Court, against the marriage. The cafe having
been first called on, -
The Souctroa-Gemsnat, on the 'pert of the de-
fendants, moved that the petition of Lord Stewart
should be read.

Sir SAMUEL ROMILLY said, that the petition of
Lord Stewart could not possibly be heard by tlle
Court, until his motion respecting the -Countess of
Antrim was first disposed of. lie submitted, that at
all events, her Ladyship should be prevented from
having intercourse with her daughter.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, 'the present /pi a
case which demanded the most serious ;monk)* had
particularly the . allegations against Lord Sttwart,
which were of considerable importance._

Sir SAmuet. ltommtv proposed, th.it if Lady An-
trim would disprove upon oath the allegations made
against her, he would consent to the postponement
of the case ur.til Tuesday next.
Mr. HAUT had no objection to the preqxisition. •
Sir AA:MU:iL ROMILLY-But it must he understood
that my motion shall be heard before the petition.
,The Loan CHANCIILLOA thought that perhaps this
would be the best way. He would hear the motion
first; but the allegation against the Noble parties
must also be inquired into.—His.Lordship ordered
the case to stand over until Tuesday:
