THE ARIIY.

GENERAL COURT MARTIAL.
A General Court Martial bas been sitting at the barracks of this
city since Monday last, on the trial of the Schoolmaster, Eerjeaat,
and Drum Major of the 324 Regiment, for conspiring to prevent
the Hon. JONA hIAITLARD, the Lieutenant Colonel of the corps,
then absent in ill-health, from rejoining the Regiment, by the fa-
brication of certain charges, transmitted under a fictitious signature
to the night Hon. the Earl of LiUDERDALZ, the gallant Colonel's
father. The trial will probably close to-morrow. but the result
will not be made public until his Maxine's pleasure hall be taken
as to the decision and finding of the Court, which Is composed of
distinguished Officers.
When Lord LAUDZSDALI received the letter, containing the in-
famous charges against his son, he instantly sent it from Dunbar
House to the Colonel, who was then under the care Of two Aledi-
cal Gentlemen in Edinburgh ; and who.tbough by them prohibited
front leaving his chamber, at once set off for Glasgow, and thence
by Portpatrick, Donagbadte' and Dublin, to KilEenny, where be
arrived unexpectedly, ordered the barrack gates to be closed, and
sent two fat of men front the gate, guard to arrest the prisoners,
and place them in confinement.
Before the adjournment of the Court on Wednesday, the unfor.
tunate wretches sully acknowledged their guilt, as having conspired
to drive Col. Mermarin from the Regiment, in which be is much
beloved. Front the first moment of the trial. no rational person
could entertain a doubt of their criminality.— Leirseter Journal.
The depot of the 85th Regiment of Foot is ordered to proceed

DEVONPORT, NOV. 29.
All was well on board the Maidstone, 42, Commo-
dore Skipsey, in S:mon's Bay, Cape of Good Hope, on
the sth of September. On the arrival there of the
Tweed, with Sir L. Cale, from the Mauritius, which
she was to leave on the 20th of August. it wait •z.
pected the Maidstone would sail for that Island.--The
Helicon had just returned to the C ape from conveying
the Ambassadors of his black Majesty King Chaca,
from Port Elizabeth to Port Natal. It seems Chaca
proposed through them to cites minate the Caffres
and to divide their country between his brother King
George and himself. It is reported, however, that
the reply to this overture was, that the Caffres
were the allies of bong George, and, therefore, that
any act of aggression offered to them, would be
resented by the English. A muq(..ring of the boors was
consequently ordered, and some fighting ensued. At
the date of these particulars, the people in Simon's
Town had been some time without intelligence from
the frontier. -The Sparrowhawk, Commander Polking-
borne, was at the hli of France, having sprung her
mainmast. The Espoir was gone to Seychelles. Lieu-
tenant Haskoll, of the Helicon, Mr. Smith, Acting
Purser, and the Carpenter were invalided, and then
vacancies filled up by Mr. Foster, the senior passed
Midshipman of the Maidstone ; Mr. Dobbin, the Clerk ;
and Hill, the Carpenter's Mate. Mr. Goodridge, the
Master Attendant, also had been out many years, was
about to resign his situation,
and it was probable the
Master of the :Maidstone would do- the duties cf that
appointment till further orders, and that the Master of
the Helicon would move to the Maidstone.

FROM THE HAMPSHIRE TEI.F.ORAPH, NOV. 29.

The Southworth transport, Lieut. Sanders, Agent,
arrived on Thursday horn Bermuda, with invalids and
old stares from that island. When. she sailed thence,
which was on the 7th instant, the Barham, Vice Admi.
ral Fleming, was lying there. It was expected she
would sail for Jamaica in about a week. The Arachrit,
Commander Smith, sailed (mom Bermuda on. the 7th
instant, to survey the bank about ten miles to the
southward; she was to return on the 10ai, and rennin,
until relieved by one of Sir Charles Ogle's squadron.l
The Druid. Captain Sandom, and Harlequin, Com—
mander Elliott, had sailed from thence for Nassau and
Jamaica on the so.h October. The Skipjack schooner,
Lieut. Pulling, arrived at Berm:lda, from Jamaica and
Nassau, on the 18th October, with dispatches for the
Vice Admiral, and sailed again on the 24th, to resume
her cruise in search ..f pirates and slavers.
We regret to add, that a complaint, called the "Dan'
Fever," had for some time pretailed amongst the
Shipping and Naval Establishment at Weland Wand
(supposed
.to have been introduced by the Jamaica
squadron), the effects of which at first excited alarm
but by the adoption of prompt measures, it 'seldom con-
tinued more than ft ur or five days, and in no instance
had it proved fatal. The convicts hulks had also felt
its influence; as many as 200 on baard-the Coromandel
having been smacked and recovered in the month of
October. The disease, at the time of the Southworth 's
departure, was subsiding. few cases only (kenning,
instead of thirty or forty daily, which. wet the case
amongst the artificers of the Yard;and the 'convicts on
the public works, on its first appearance. The Barham
had been lying at Bermuda since the 2d of August.'
Some d.fficulty and embarrassment had been expe-
rienced from the non-arriv..l of provisions from Eng-
land for the use of the squadron and Naval Yard.
Necessaries of all kinds had been very scarce; a barrel
of flour could not be cbtained at any price. Orders
were issued, on the Ist instant, to place the people on
short allowante; a restriction, however, to which the
necessity of having recourse was removed by the timely
arrival, on the following morning, of the ship Jupiter,
with supplies from England. The Southworth sailed
this morning fur Woolwich and Deptford, to discharge
her cargo.
The ship John, Moncrieffe, Ma•ter, arrived this after-
noon from Batavia, bound to Antwerp, laden with rice
aod rattan ; sailed the 20th July, and touched at St.
Helena sth October. At the latter island she left the
Sybille, Commodore Ciller, refitting. The Sybille
was remarkably healthy.
The Procris, 10, Commander C. Paget, is ordered to Plymouth

Radford, is also ordered.

The Naval Administration of this country has at all
times manifested great libtrality of feeling in giving
foreigners access to our dock yards, for the purpoie of
instruction. It is not, therefore, with surprise we leain
that directions have been received at this yard, within
these few days, to admit a Turk, of the name of Maho.
met Effendi, to be instructed in naval architecture, foe
the future service of the Pacha of Egypt.
A reduction of the Army is spoken of in the military
circles, by which a saving of one million per annum is
to be effected. As part of the plan, it is said the depot
companies of regiments abroad are to join their reL:
spective head quarters; a general insulting establish..
ment for all corps are to be formed; two companies in
each regiment to be reduced, and all pensioners of one
shilling a day and under to be. called on to compose
four Veteran Battalions, to be formed solely for gar-
rison duty.

The Comet sloop is of dered to be commissioned';
Commander SANDMAN= has been appointed to ibs command of
