UDDITES.—A letter, of which the following is a copy, has h :en received by the I-Lone Secretary of Stete l from a Cheshire trate :—Mv Lord, Yesterday several of the Luddites from the neigh beurhoed of Mottram, the most diiturbed in Cheshire, and bordering upon the litniderstield eeighbotirhaod, caiee before me arid teuk the oath of alkgiance. I have reason to expeet tiett numbers wiii follow the:r example; and under the conviction that your Lorcishlp will be pleased to hear of the Lod efrects of the late Act of Parliament far previewing th • adnum .taring unlawful oaths, ated of the prospect that now opens of the set sous alarms e.hick, since the inide of Febrino y, h been subject to, •.übsiding, I have taken the likerty of making the above commuhication. I have the honour to he, &c. BR t sTot, AUG (22 —The following moat disgraceful and inborn .n conduct was witnessed last week this city. On Wednesday . , - s one of the serjeants of the Leitrim Mihtia was walking, between S anti 9 o'clock, through St James's Church. yard, he was accested by a man, who asked him it ;le belonged to the Irish Militia reginie.nt qiiartered in Bristel. Ills answer was, that he did. Ile then asked him how he liked this country ; he replied, very much. He then began to abuse the serjoant, by damning him and every one from his country ; wain a second man came behind him, and with a carving knife, or :stile similar instrument, cut the sinews of his right leg in so dieadful a marthei, that the poor fellow has not been able to he removed front the public hawse to which he was iminekleitely conveyed. The ser jeant recollects well th.• face of the man who spoke to him. His de position as to the facts stated, has, we understand, been properly taken down, and we trust that the miscreants will he soon discovered. The serjeant bears a most excellent character in his regiment ; indeed, the eon luct of the whole regimenr, since they have been among us, has been truly exemplary. A shock* catastrophe occurred at Brighton on Monday,. in the comme:sion of suicide by Mrs. Goldingham, a niece of Major. Ge n'-'rat NOW. at her residence in Dorset.gardens. The deceas;d,who has left six % oung children to deplore the fatal act of their unthrtunate mother, had been in a droei.ing way for some time; hut, excepting , lit a solitary i:,stame, when she complained, in rather a strange man ner, of being unable to distinguish the letters in a book she held in her hand, no suspicions were entertaUled of her being in any way mentally deranged. About half past twelve o'clock site had left her parlour, and .aired to her chamber ; the door of which soon after being thuild I eked, and no answers being given to the questions put to her, her brother, Captain Popham, broke it open. On entering the room, he discovered his sister lying on her face, and westering in her blood. Though hrlror-struck at the . spectacle, he endear/ohm' to raise tier up; and found that she had deeply lacerated her throat both on the right and hit side with a razor, and severing the jugular artery, had bled in the most peofuse manner. She was not quite dead when tiis covered, but her last sigh escaped her almost imniedia'ely alter. The Coroner's Inquest was taken out a view of the body onTues , lay mt•rn ng, and a verdict of lunacy returned. Mr. Goldinghann, the husband ut the deceased, is abroad. PUBLIC EXPENDITURE. 533 The Twelfth Report of the Committee of Public Expenditure presents no new peculation or default of enormous amount, yet it explains the elisting condition of some of the old ones : and in rela tion to the new discoveries which it makes, it may be observed, that .11.:Ivitesty and negligence 10.4 not their character when they are evinced only in the waste or fraudulent appropriation of small sums; and there is, theretbre, much in this Report. with which the nation ought to be acquainted, that the neople at large ben may be.in a condition to estimate truly the mtrits of the men who have n engaged in their service. The Commissioners state in the opening cf their Report, " that the two sums stated to have been irregularly and improperly drawn from the Pay Office in May, 1799, and July. 1800, were paid by Mr. Steele in February and April, 1807, with interest upon both, from the day of their issue, to that of the re-payment." Barrow's defalcation in the Navy Pay Office, remains at about 5,0001. ; and himself having absconded, he has become the subject of an out law ry. Hunt, the late Treasurer of the Ordnance, remains also indebted to the public to the amount of 89,8771. The case of the late Mr. Fordyce, Receiver-General for Scotland, is a iemarkable one. This person's whole defalcation amounted to about 50,0001. ;• but the Lords of the Treasury have come to the sin gular cleterminatirm, that his estate shou'd be relieved of so much of his debt as was occasioned by the failure of the house of Messrs. Douglas and Cockburn, amounting to upwards of 13,0001. Mr. For- , dyee having been induced to place his money in that ban k b y the re. co mmendation of Lord Roein4liain. To this we have no objection whatever ; but common justice requires, that if Fordyce's estate is to be relieved from the y ' 3,0001. the estate of the Marquis of Rocking ham, who made him ace the money in Douglas and Cockburn's hank, should oe made liable to that debt. The following is the account of Mr. Goldsmid's defalcation : •6 Due from Mr. Goldsmid, at the time of his death, on account of th.: departin.nts of the Pay master-General OP Treasurer of the Navy .

It app - ars that " the barracks and the 80ar..; of NVorks of Ireland for some : cars, until the 19th of Oc ober, 1t 2 .03, were under the direction and superintendance of Lord Ty rawley, a: First C , annissioner : his son, Mr Cu*, bring the Treasurer. The Barracks were then seonratcci from the Board of Works, and incorooried Nlith those of Great Britain, :ma the Board of Works was arrang . d in some dcgre- on a ditnrent establishment ; but Lord T y raw ley and Mr. Cufre ceased to have any connexion with either of the branches. " The annual accounts from the ( 25th of March, 1796, to the I 9th I.f Ot:tob - r, 18d:3, were then outstai.diog, and silt delivered in for audit ; and the sums of moue) issued to the Treasurer on account , during that perioJ , app ear fr nn the I`2th Re:.ort of Commissioners on ket:s, Gratuities, &c. p. 7. to amount' to 1,5:35,(2311." It aopears farther, that from the year 1603 to the Ist of July of the present yea , , almost incessant applications have been made to Lord F$ Fa \s ley, to bring this account to audit ; and hitherto w shout effect, ext:ept, iodee(l, it was presented on the Ist of J uly, the last period of extension mentioned in the Report. But the most remarkable of all is what follows :- 44 Lerd Tyrawley receives an a llowance, as late Barrack M aster General, of '2,0001. a year. Mr. Cuties a ll o wance, as late Treasurer of the Barrack Dc. partmant, was .1001. a year, until the time of his death, which happened Lock'. Both these allowances have been paid out of a giant annually voted by Parham: an along with the Military Estimates." Mr. Chinhery's case follows, atr.4 is the last in the Report. This mall is a ,'et alter to the amount of nearly 80,0001. and we cannoitie t help i.oticing, withwitht he st rom . est reprehension, t hat his ii rogul .rs were stated by the Commissioners of Audit to the Lords of the *Fria otry, so lung Ago as August, It:03 ; but that their representations " were no' sudicteotly attended to. We think, in oonunon honesty, tittle f,re, that the Lords At the freasury, through whose negteci Chistar• iv's detalc tion became so great, should be answerable for all the sums oi herwisc lost to the public, after the representation made by .' the Auditors of Public Accounts.
