Sir T. Sratees fought a duel not long since with
Mr. HALFORD, the Gentleman who utszeinsd a ver-
dict of &lOW dameges against him Inr crier coo iR
Court of King's Bench. On that occasion hr
received a wound in his only ritmeining arm (hetieg
lost the other in a severe liAvAl engagement) Irene

STAINES was Captain of the —Herron frigate. and ie
that vessel discovered the descendants of the met:leers
of the Bounty in Pitcairn's Island, in tl.c
Ocean, after they load eluded a intiet diligent search a
nearly 30 years.
The extra :lip Batavia, which has arrived in the
River, has brought letters :rem Beng4l, Madras,
Ttincomalee, and St. lielene.- We received a series
of the Madras (:wirier by her, trent October IS to
Januirty 22, bin they contain but little that is intense
ting to a European reader. The Village, 2E, Lieut.
WAIIDE, acting, (the only ship remaining on the war
establishment,) arrived in Madras Roods on the 20th
of Jannary, from Penang, with Sir E. Stexeev. ap-
pointed one of the Judges cm the Bench a: Madras.
The apprehensions fOr her safety had been such that
the Conway end Becelaus were sent in various direc-
tions to look alter her. The 'fewer, 24, Captain
Hue, h sailed for the protection of the trade
against the ',hates in the Per.ien Gulf. Tate Magi-
cienne, Orlendo, and Iphigenia, were to remain at
Trincomalee tair some time, where 21X10 men were en:.
ploeed on the different works, to render tlic post
complete and desirable. The 80th regiment, Culotte!
STURT, had arrived in the vicinity of Madras, teem-
bark for England ; but as the greater Proportion of
the non-commissioned officers ;Ind privates had vo-
lunteered into the Honourable Compeny's and ether
regiments remaining in India, there will not remain
more than 200 to embet le The Asia, Lerd Keith,
and NI Irchionees of Ely, were ebeut to Lail for Eng-
land. The tidth arc! 67th regiments, in the Lipper
Provinces of Bengal, had 501 men tick in the hospr-
tel, Irußl 20 epidemic disease, and deaths frequently
occurree!. The Gtids was under orders to march Imre
eawnpore to Calcutta, to embark for St. Helena.—
Major Ei neCoo.re, died lately at CAwnyere.
The Batavia sealed from Sr. Helena on the 151 h
of bley. A lettet from an Officer there set's—'a Bo-
NAPaicTE begins to walk vut Illrie ; tar therefore
suppose he is getting the better of Lis sulky fit. He
does net look so well as he did, which, as it may be
imagined, is owing to his keeping eo much within
doors. The 53d regiment is healthy ; but the tiG:le
(2d battalion) has had extrusive sickness."

York Assizes commenced on &tardily, and, from
the number and nature of the crimes enumerated in
the Calendar, they are expected to prove interesting.
The Calendar contains the names of 69 prisoners-
-23 of whom are charged with tumultuary And insur.
”ctionary proceedings, in the neighboutliuod of Hud-
deri.field—seven with murder ; ,me tvith rapt; two
malidons stabbing, ; five with burglary ; two with
highway robber/ ; four, horse, slteep, and cattle
stealing ; four stealing in A dWaiillg.lloUSe ; two re-
ceiving stolen goods ; one with futgery • two tittering
counterfeit silver; two with manslaughter; one with
bigamy ; one with falsely pretending to be nest of
kid to a deceased seaman; three with larceny : one
of the prisoners, John May Lund, is charged with
stealing six oxen, the property tif the Hon. George
Wood, Kid. one of the Judges in the present Concuit.
—The trial of the individuals charged with political,
or rather with treasonable offences, riches particular
interest, from the facts, true or false, which have
been stated, in and out of Parliament, respecting
Oliver, and the part he is alledged to have acted in
the affair at Huddersfield. As the evidence will
corm be before the Public, we abstain from all allu-
sion to the statements and anticipations of the provin-
cial journals, especially those of the neighbourhood.
Let us hope that the undisguised truth will be elicited
on the trials.—thieer, the spy, ii, it seems, a native
of WAles, and by trade a carpenter. He was, a few
years ago, a s?rjeant in the Whitechapel Voltinteers.

We extract th-e following paragraph from the Nor:
cvich Alercury :--.1 Last week A Gentleman WAS
brought before the Sitting Magistrates of one of the
norther divisions of the county of Suffolk, charged,
on the oath of a young Lady of high,rank; niece to a
liable Lord, that she was verily afraid that he would
carry her away from her uncle's mansion against her
will and the public peace, aad contrary to law ; he
having followed her from Bath, where he h.d first
met her at the public assembly, and became so
deeply enamoured that he immediately introduced
himself to her family, and on her returning to their
seat, in Suffolk, he took up his quarters at an inn in
the neighbourhood, from whence lie embraced every
opportunity of obtruding himself on her nutice, and
%licit laid her under the necessity of making use of.
the means above resorted to (miler own security. He
described himself as Captain in the Royal Fusileers, a
native of Ireland, aati nearly related to a Peer of
that lingdom. He WAS required by the Magistrates
to find bail for the next Quarter Sessions, himself in
aloo and two sureties in re:3o each. Being so per-
fect a stranger in the neighbourhood this latter re-
qoisition would have occasioned some difficulty if it
bad nut been immediately obviated by the Captain's
produjog tao Bank bills of rtlso each, whic , speak-
ing a language universally understood, procurel his
immediate enlargement."

CORN EXCHANGE, MARK.LANE, JULY 91.
Having had a very large arrival of Wheat since
this day week, and the weather continuing favourable,
caused exceedingly heavy sales this morning, and al-
though prime qualities Irons Essex obtained 2s. per
quarter more titan on last Monday, yet all other de.
scrip.ions were unsaleable, although offered on lower
terms. Barley, Beans, and Oats are from ls. to 2s.
per quarter higher than on last Monday, but salts
were not so brisk as on friday. In has iuid other i
uiticJes there is no alteration.
