THE DUKE OF CLARENCE.

The following communication has bees received by,
the Mayor of Conk, in reply to one from his Worship,l
in reference to the visit of his Royal Highness the
Duke of CLAIIIINCZ to that harbour and city :
4- Admiralty, July 4.
Sta—l have had the honour of communicating your letter
and its enclosure to his Royal Highness the Duke of CLARENCI,
and have received his Royal Highness's commands to acquaint you,
that his Royal Highness's arrangements render it impossible for
him to visit Cork this year ; but his Royal Highness, who has a
lively recollection of his former visit to your city, hopes that cif-
cnnustancei will allow him to execute his intention of proceeding
to Cork Harbour, and thence to the city of Cork, is the ensuing
season. His Royal Highness desires me to add, that he is sensible
of the attention of the Corporation, as expteued In the resolution
of the Council, which you transmitted to me. I have the honour
to be, Sir, your most obedient humble servant, " J. W.Cnoxia."

THE DUCHMS OF CLARENCE.

SALISSUBY, JuLY 11.-.—His Royal 'Highness the
Lose HIGH ADHISAL having proceeded by water, on a voyage of
inspection to the Naval Arsenal en the Southern Coa.t, his ie..
complished and amiable Duchess and suite arrived this day at the
Antelope Inn. Long before her Royal Highness appeared, the
road was thronged with multitudes eager to catch a glance of her
Royal Highness. The cavalry, commanded by Lieutenant Pen-
nington, escorted her ROyal Highness into the city. Her Royal
Highness felt the compliment, and warmly expressed her high sa-
tisfaction. The feeling in her behalf was universal—from the
highest to the lowest ranks in society, every one seemed forward
to pay their tribute of respect to her. A number of good think-
ing, honest fellows appeared with their cords and staves to draw
her Royal Highness into the city ; but a desire of proceeding, as
rapidly as possible, prevented their kind intention from being car-
ried into effect. She arrived at the Antelope _above five o'clock.
On her arrival, her Royal Highness appeared at tie centre win-
dow of the splendid apartments appropriated for her accommoda-
tion, and with a most amiable condescension repeatedly acknow-
lege the =cations paid to her., The spacious Court-yard of the
lon was crowded to excess, while every window presented all the
rank and opulence of the City. The excellent band belonging tt
the troop played a number of beautiful airs, with which the
Duchess seemed highly gratified, and it was not till tight that the
company 'hewed the slightest disposition to leave the interesting
scene. Her Royal Highness was visited on her arrival by the
Rev. the Dean of Salisbury, who on Thursday morning sent his
carriage for the Princess, who, with her attendints, entered by the
Palace-gate to take a view of the Cathedral, and of which she ex-
pressed the highest admiration. Shortly after ten o'clock in the
mentor, escorted by the Cavalry, and amidst the best wishes of
the multitude for her happiness, she took her departure for Ply-
mouth to meet her illustrious Consort.

CHAMBER OF PEER% Pia sa.

The Order of the Day was, the debate on the propo-
sal of the Committee of Finance, that on the arrival of
the Queen Donna Maria IL a hundred centos of reis
should be given her fiom the public Treasut.y, which,
after some debate, was agreed to.

CHAMBER OP DEPUTIES, Fan. 24.
-The President gave an account of the reception of the
Deputation', which went the Palace of Ajuda, to
present to the Princess Regent the Address intended to-
be sent to the Emperor DOn Pedro, thanking him for
giving the Chamber to Portugal ; to which her High-
nest gave a very gracious answer, promising to transmit
the Address to her brother.
Senior Garna Lobo made a motion, that the Govern-
ment should be required to order immediately the dis-
arming of all the militia, who, having joined the Rebels,
afterwards left them, and are now ak.sheir homes : he
enforced the necessity of this imeasiire in an energetic
speech. •
Senior Borges Carniero said, he was i friend to mo.
deration ; but, in truth, t 6 -confound moderation with
the most scandalous connivance,' is intolerable. Pro-
vinces are suffered to be laid waste, 'and the rebellion
to spread, without taking any repressive measurer.—
Honourable families, loyal to Dun Pedro IV. are plun-
dered, and full of terror ; and the rebels unpunished,
and boasting, if their speculations do not succeed, they
give them op; and all this is called the necessity of the
cases forderis„ an unheard-, f ignominy, a connivance
unpatalleleJ in the history of naams. The motion
was seconded by Signior A.J. Claudia°, ancetupported
by the President.

QUEEN-SQUARE.
A few days ago two young girls, who earn a scanty and precaroos
livelihood by selling fruit about the streets, applied to the sitting
Magistrate, D. W. Gamma, Esq. in consequence of the conduct
of Wright, an inspector of milsanees, belonging to the out ward of
St. George's, Hanover-square,
The girls complained of having their baskets taken away by
Wright, and taken to the workhouse.
Wright attended yesterday, to eaplain his conduct, and said, that
according to his interpretation of the Act of Parliament, be mea-
-1 dared himself justified in seising the baskets: besides, the com-
plainants were not near the baskets at the time. It was a common
practice, in many streets, to send tound a cart, and convey ail the
1 baskets they met with to the workhouse.
Mr. Gacomus said that he had acted most unlawfully and con-
trary to the Act of Parti.mtot. Every party offending was to be
brought before a Magistrate and in case of conviction, was liable to
a penalty, and the goods seised to go in part payment; but this
kind of seizure was the most gross. absurd perversion of au Act nt
Parliament beever beard of; such an act of injustice be seldom
met with : be had rendered himself liable to a prosecution for his
conduct ; and it it was ever again repeated, be would most as-

The prosecutor stateJ, that the prisoner is the driver
of a hackney-coach. On the,loth of this month, the
prosecutor, who is a Frenchman, and had just returned
from France, took the prisoner's coach at the Custom.
house, to his lodging at Pentonville. The prosecutor's
trunk was carried out of the coach by the prisoner, and
left in the passage. The prisoner said it was very heavy,
and asked prosecutor whether it was full of doubloons?
he smiled and said yes. He then went back in the coach
to 'Change, where he paid the prisoner, and discharged
him. Abut eight o'clock he returned to his lodging,
and found that his trunk had been taken away. The
trunk contained a Spanish mantle, two coats, three
jackets, a dozen shirts, half a dozen pair of trowsers,
and other articles. It was worth much more than 51.
He never saw it since.
Eleanor Atkins stated that she lives with her husband
at Peatonville; the prosecutor came to her house on the
10th in a hackney coach, No. 117, drove by the prisoner
at the bar. About five o'clock the same evening the
prisoner returned, and said to her the gentleman was
wrong altogether; the trunk was to have gone to Lei-
cester Fields. The gentleman was very sorry, and bad
given him half a sovereign to satisfy her. She said a
crown was sufficient. The prisoner then paid her a
crown, and she went into the parlour. She saw ao one
with the prisoner. The trunk was taken away.
Henry Atkins, son of the last witness, corroborated
her evidence; and said the prisoner called to a man who
came with him, and said, porter, trunk. The man then
put the trunk in the coach. They both got on the bee
and drove off. _

The prisoner being called on for his defence, said,,
that almost immediately after he was discharged by
the prosecutor he was taken up by another foreign Gen-
tleman, who desired him to drive to the house at Pen.
tonville where he had driven the prosecutor; and when
they came there gave him half-a-sovereign to pay the
Landlady, and had the trunk taken into the coach, and
was then drove to Leicester-fields, where he stopped and
gave the trunk to the porter and went away.

NEW COURT.
Before the Comm Sweatt.

Henry Rogers was iniiitedforteloniously breaking
and entering the dwelling house of Richard M. Donkin,
on the 29th of Juiy, and stealing a sum of money,
twelve silver spoons, and a quantity of wearing apparel,
altogether valued at 201.
Mrs. Donkin was the first witness. She said—My
husband, at the time the robbery was committed, kept
the White Hart in Fleet Market. Rogers was then
employed by him. About eight o'clock in the evening
he assisted in putting up the shutters, and be remained
in the house so late as twelve o'clock. In the morning
the back door was found to have been broken open,
and a secretary forced, whence the greater pia of the
property was taken. Oa some of the servants being
taken into custody, the potboy confessed that Rogers
offered him a sovereign to leave the back door open on
the night in question. On the prisoner being searched
an oyster knife was found upon him, which fitted exactly
the marks made in breaking open the secretary. A
seal was also found on him, which this witness, identi•
fled as her property.
Other witnesses were examined, who corroborated the
foregoing statement.
The Jury, after considerable deliberation, found the
prisoner guilty.—Death.
Elizabeth Ball and Mary Johnson were indicted for
stealing from the person of Alexander Jordan a watch
and seals, value 71. with a sum of money in notes and
gold, and an Irish penny piece. It appeared that the
prosecutor, who lives in Nelson Place, City Road, had
been, on the day charged (the 12th olleptember), pas•
sing through Sadler's Wells, in a state of intoxication;
part of the way be was accompanied by a friend. Being
quite intoxicated he had but an imperfect knowledge of
1
what took place. Of having been with some females'
he had an indistinct recollection, but was unable to say
positively that the prisoners were the individuals in
whose company he had been.
The prosecutor underwent a long cross•examination,l
from which nothing in addition to the above was
elicited.

A female, named Mary Bishop, deposed to the ex-
treme intoxication of the prosecutor. From the window
of the house where she lived she saw one of the prison-
ers take a pocket book from the prosecutor and hand it
to her companion; the same was done with his watch.
Immediately on seeing this she called the watchman,
and caused the prisoners so be apprehended.
A woman, who keeps an oyster shop in Charlotte'
Street, Sadler's Wells, stated, that the prisoners carne'
into her shop on the night of the robbery, at eleven
o'clock, and one of them had an Irish penny piece.
A woman named Green, aad several other witnesses,
were examined in support of the charge. Verdict—
Guilty.

HIGH COURT OF JUSTICIARY.

FROM ?HR EDINBURGH OBSERVER.
Yesterday came on before the Court the trials of
Willjaw, Thomson, Jews 1 homson, and John Frans,
labourers, accused of attacking and assaulting, on the
30th of November last, at or near the foot of Langside
Brae, in the parish of Dalkeith, George Dickson, far-
MU, Cousland, who was returning home from Dalkeith
market, and who was struck several severe blows on the
face, head, and breast, with large wooden bludgeons,
or other offensive weapons, by which he was severely
wounded, to the great effusion of his blood ; and after-
wards robbed of a silver hunting watch, a copy of the
SCOURIGN, and a letter addressed to Mrs. Dickson, besides
several memorandums. _ _

The prosecutot described the nature of the attack.—
He said that there were four men in the party, and one
cried twice," Murder the —! murder him!'' Witness
looked at the prisoners: He said he knew them all by
sight; they were all of the party who robbed him.—'
Three of the four men had on dark coloured clothes,
and one had on a red vest with stone coloured sleeves ;
it was Pram who was thus dressed ; it was William
Thomson who came forward and gave him the first
blow; it was Fram who cried " Murder him!" (A
man, or rather a boy, William Leslie, was brought into
Court, and identified as the fourth of the party.) Wit-
ness is a yeoman—the oldest its Scotland—but wore no
spars that day, otherwise he would have saved the
Court the trouble of a trial. After the robbery, the
teh le p.rty went into the plantation on the north side
of the road, and witness returned to D ilkeith, where he
arrived about hall-past five o'clock. Witness sent for
Dr Scott, who dressed his wounds, and afterwards went
home in a chaise. He did not know the pannels by
name, but described them to Turnbull, the officer, next
day, and subsequently identified them in the Sheriff's
Office as the persons who had robbed him.

An accomplice, and other witnesses, were examined for the
Crown ; and exculpatory evidence was received for the prisoners.
The Loan JUSTIN, CLIIRK, in an address which occupied an hour
and a half, laid before the Jury the whole case, as brought out in
evidence.

After which, the Jury, without leaving the box, unanimously
found all the prisoners guilty, but recommended James Thomson
and John Frain t• the mercy of the Crown.

The Loots Armes Ctaa then addressed the prisoners, and con-
elided by reading the vnrence of the Court, ordaining the pannels
to be executed at Dalkeith, or such place in the neighbourhood as
the Sheriff should hi upon, on Thursday the Ist day of March, be-
tween the hours of two and four •clock in the afternoon.

William Thomson then said " Thank you." He is a man of
forbidding appearance. His brother James is of a more mild aspect,
sod seemed to feel his awful situation. Frain conducted himself
wish propriety. The whole of the unhappy men were well dressed.
W. Thomson is a married man—the ethers are not.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, JAN. 25.

Mari Sherrill, a publican, late of King-street, Drury-
lane, came before the Court to obtain his discharge, and
was opposed by Messrs. Wyatt, the brewers. It ap-
peared that a person, named O'Hara, lent the insolvent
9001. and shortly before he went to prison he paid
O'Hara 2001. and gave him a warrant of Attorney for
the remainder, to the prejudice of his other creditors,
The Court ordered him to be imprisoned three months.
Thomas Holden, a calico manufacturer, who resided
at Blackburn, was opposed for secreting his property.
It appeased that the insolvent went to prison in June
Jan, at the suit of his brother, and since that time the
whole of his property had been sold, and he had received,
sums of money from various persons, and of which he
was unable to give any account.—He was ordered to be
imprisoned fifteen months within the walls of the prison.
William IValbourn, the celebrated Dusty Bob at the
Adelpht Theatre, came before .the Court to gain his
discharge, which he obtained.

DEFEAT OF THE PORTUGUESE REBELS.

We have received the Moniteur of Wednesday last,
and have merely time, from the lateness of the hour at
which it has reached us, to state, that it contains an
account of the defeat and dispersion of the Portuguese
rebels on the 9th, at a place called Coruches Dabeira.
We extract the article containing this important and
most gratifying intelligence ;

110 M THE SIONITEUR 01 WEDNESDAY, SAL 24.

An &mom from Madtld, dated January 20, says--

" The Portuguese Refugees who had lately abandoned the
road of Coimbra, and had passed the Mondege, drawing nearer
to the frontiers of Spain, were beaten on the 9th at Coeuebes
Dabeira, where they suffered considerable loss. Accounts from
the frontiers say, that great numbers of them have already been
driven back (setoff) into the Spanish territory."
