An English Translation in Terse is requested. 11111,11'A I? Y. The Hon. J. Rodney, of the 3d Guards, left town on Wednes day evening for Valmouth, with dispatches for Lord Welling ton. The 11th light dragoons embarked at Plymouth on Thursday, and were to sail under convoy of the Favourite, of 18 guns. experiment of an improved method of chaeging with the bayonet took place on 'Wednesday, by a detachment of the Royal Marines, in presence of the Lords of the Admiralty, and a Committee of : Marine Officers. The whole plan contains many very superior advantages over the present system, particu larly in enabling the rear-guard men to use their muskets at the charge, with similar effect, and at the same moment, as the front rank, causing the men to stand in a stronger position, and enabling them either to attack or defend, at one instant from the front and rear. It appears to be particularly adapted to repel any attack that maybe made by an enemy's boarders in a naval engagement. The plan met with entire approbation ; and it is reported, that it will be adopted. MILITIA VOLIJN I'I.ER I NO.-The volunteering from the Militia into the Live commenced at Norman Cross on Wednes day, from the Ist Royal Surrey Militia, and Cumberland, sta tioned at that place ; the quota for the Surrey being 92. So soon as the order was read in the circle, the whole number allowed to go turned out, with three officers, in the most hand some manner. What makes this the more satisfactory is, that not a shilling of the bounty was to be paid till they gut to Saint Ives, for the purpose of preventing any disorder amongst the Fri itch prisoners. The 56th, commanded by General Norton, was the favourite regiment ; 85 as fine fellows as ever handled a musket selecting that regiment to join. The Cumberland, a much stronger regiment, only turned out 29. The Ist Surrey ha'; 'always been conspicuous for their spirit on these occasions.— In the volunteering of 18';9, their quota was 183, who turned out the first day, and joined the 456th ; since aiding in the cap ture of the Isle of France. The volunteering from the South Gloucester took place at Brighton also on Wednesday. The complement required was 103, and though to the full of that number turned out, we understand 73 only were accepted. The further volunteering for the remaining 30 men Hail take place next week. A Court-martial will be held at Chelsea Hospital to •morrow, for the trial of Lieutenant-Colonel Johnstone, of the 102 d regi ment, on charges exhibited by Captain William Bli,h, of the navy, late Governor of New South Wales. Captain Nigh, late Governor of New South Wales, it is ex pected, will be tried by a Court-Martial, as soon as that to which he has called Lietst.-Col. Johnstone, of the 102 d regiment, is terminated. COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. 2 *a . Thursday, a Court of Common Cotmeil was held at Guildhall which was numerously attended. Mr. Dixou gave notice, that he should next Court-day move, that a sum of money be granted to the relief of the distressed Portuguese. A letter was read from the Committee for Managing the Subscription for the Relief of the British Prisoners in France, acknowledging the receipt of a donation of 500 guineas trom this Court, and returning thanks for the same. The Recorder's Salary was ordered to be raised to 2,500 L per annum, to,commence from Christmas last. FREEDOM OF THE crry TO THE PRINCE REGENT. Mr. QUIN rose to call the att e nti o n o f t h e C ourt to t hi s sub ject. With respect to the origin of the motion, whatever its merits, he could claim none of it. The motion had its origin with a Worthy Magistrate, a friend of his (Alderman Combs), and he (Mr. 9.) had merely given shape to idea. Nearly half a century had now elapsed since the Freedom of This City had been conferred on any of the Royal Family, but he was persuaded, that on no occasion could an opportimity 'more wor thy than the presemroccui to renew the practice. After paying some high and merited compliments to the Prince, he con cluded by moving the Freedom to his Royal Highness. Mr. FAVeLL rose to second the motion. Alderman Sir C. Sstrcti highly approved of the motion ; in his opinion, the conduct of his Royal Highness, whether con sidered as a Prince or a man, was worthy our highest appro bation. Alderman Coatis E also expressed himself in favour of the mo tion ; which was then put and agre.•d to unanimously. Mr. QUTN then moved, that the Freedom should he presented to his RoOil Highness in a Box of Heart of Oak ; which, with other Resolutions were also agreed to, and the Court adjourned. Intelligence received from Barbatloes, mentions, that seven large French privatuers have been fitting out in American porn., and were cruizing t. ti Guadaloupe. One of them mounts t 24 guns. Our men of war on that st4tion had been sent in pursuit of them. Ministers, in the bepinning of the week, received dispatches from Admiral Rowley, communicating to them the daring and outrageous proceedions of his Imperial Majesty Christophea— These t:iipatehes were brought by a Naval Officer, who had been sent to St. Domingo, to demand the restitution of a British vessel that had been coniiacated. 'llia gentleman was at the Court of Christophe, and was received by him with all the forms and honours of an Ambassador. Christuphe gave him a grand entertainment, at which the ).oung black Princes and Princesses, the sons and daughters of the Emperor, were seated in state. There was an immense rttinue of black Lot ds in waiting, all dressed in gala suits of scarlet and gold ; a superb service of . gold plate, and a dinner . tout-a 7 fiiit Fraptctits, and served with maguificence.—Christuphe is Budding a palace, at; short distance, but which is to he in the centre of It fortifica tion, that, wlual finished, will be one of the strongest in the world. Immense sums are expending on this erection; and not oi.ly upon this work, but upon all that environs the establish. merit of a regal:ae and powerful seat of Government ; a degree of skill, and a combination of means are employed, which pro mise the most extensive results. The foundation of a Navy is laid. The naval force, under the flag of Hayti, already consists of one frigate of 44 guns, nine sloops of war, rive brigs of :.to and 22 guns each, six brigs of 14 and 16 guns each, and a number of schooners seldom carrying less than 100 men eat h. The American ship Arab, is arrived at Cowes from Charles. ton ; she brings intelligence, that, prior to her sailing, all Bri tish property, which had been under sequestration in ditlertnt parts of A merik7a, Was liberated. The following is a copy of General Graham's letter to the Speaker of the House of Commons:— " Island of Leon, April 11, 1811. 6C Sna—l have the honour to atknowledge the receipt of nr letter, communicating to me a Vote of the Howse of Commons, thanking me, and the Officers and men under my command, for oar conduct at the battle of Barrosa. '1 he House must know, that the victory of that day was entirely owing to that spirit of bravery which animates the minds of the Officer; nacil men from an innate loyalty and unconquerable patriotism, whit h I know will be greatly cherished on receiving he approbStiati of the representativer of the people. It has al s% ays been my own ambition that my services should merit the same distinguished honour; and having now accomplished my wishes, I trust that my future life will correspond with that conduct which acquired me such grateful notice. Permit nte, Sir, to return you nly thanks for the very handsome manner in which you made me the communication." ile JIN 40. 1401• - •• OM
