The Duke of Brunswick's corps has landed in Ire•
land, from whence some regiments will speedily em-
bark to reinforce Lord WELLINGTON'S army. It is
the determination to keep every corps iq that army to
its most complete establishment ; detachments of men
and officers are weekly going out to every corps, and
by the exertions of its able Commander, this army is
kept in the most perfect state of discipline, and ready
to meet any force the enemy can bring against it.

The John Adams had arrived off the coast of Arne-

she brought had at that time transpired.
We have already stated that some apprehensions
were entertained of disturbances breaking out in Ca-
nada, but which were allayed by the vigorous and
prompt measures adopted by Sir James CRAM. The
following extrdcts from private letters from that quar-
ter throw some additional light on the business.
Extract of a Letter from a Gentleman In Canada, to his Friend
in Glasgow, dated Quebec, March 22, 1810.
gi On Saturday afternoon, the Printer of the Cana-
..t..,, Mr. Charles Lefrancois, was arrested and com-
-1 mitted to gaol, under a warrant from the Executive
, Council, on a charge of treasonable practices ; on
Monday evening Dr. Blanchet and Mr. Bedard, and
last evening Mr. T. Taschereau, were also arrested
and committed by the same authority on du. Caine/
I charges."
"MARCH 23.—A number of leading characters
among the Canadians, who were Members of the
House of Assemby, (twice dissolved for improper
conduct), and the Proprietor of a French paper, call-
ed Le Canadien, have been arrested and thrown into -
gaol, upon a charge of treasonable and seditious prac.
tices ; the printing press, types, &c. also taken pos-
session of. This vigofous measure of Sir limes Craig,
has astonished the Canadians not a little, but the con-
sequences will be no doubt beneficial to the country,
as it has crushed a faction which has for some years
been gaining strength, and acquiring dangerous in-
fluence over the minds of the inhabitants who are
without education, and ignorant, of Course, in the
extreme, therefore easily misled by demagogues among
their countrymen, who seize every opportunity of stir-
ing up all those prejudices which the people of this
country naturally have. against the British. For Lav-
ing been allowed to preserve their language they are
nearly as much Frenchmen now as they were at the
conquest."
On this subject we also find **following paragraph
in an American paper :

The Dorset Regiment of Militia, will arrive at

About 40 Irishmen, volunteers from the Armagh
militia, marching through Horsham on Wednesday
last, to join a regiment of the line at Steyning, and
being without an Officer, kicked up a riot at a public-
house, and beat several of the inhabitants, but were
at last taken to the barracks by a party of the 37th
Regiment.
On Saturday the Third, or King's own, Dragoons,
commanded by Lieutenant Colonel MUNDY, were re.'
viewed at Guildford, by his Royal Highness the Duke
of CAMBRIDGE, attended by a numerous suite. His
Royal Highness was pleased to express himself in the
strongest terms of approbation to Lieutenant General
CARTWRIGHT, the Colonel of the regiment, at the very
fine appearance of the Officers and men, the excellent
condition of the horses, and the very superior manner
in which they performed their different maceuvres.—.
After the business of the day was over, his Royal
Highness and suite partook of an elegant cold colla-
tion, prepared for the occasion, in a marquee on the
ground, to which many of the neighbouring families
were invited. The fineness of the day, and the
sweetness pf the music, (the band being one of the
best in the service), contributed greatly to the amuse-
ment of the company.
Captain JOHN tairrort, of the West India Rangers,
is committed to the county gaol, Hampshire, charged
with the wilful murder of his son, at Niton, Isle of
, Wight.
