CIIILD-STEA LINO. A man and his wife, who reside at No. 32. Joiner's Street, Southwark, and who are under the necessity or being out every e ,y to earn their living, on Saturday last left their two youngest e!.ildren at home. the one a girl of nine or ten years, the other a lsoy of seven or eight. On returning home on Saturday evening, about rive o'clock. it is not ease to pouttray their distress on riiis:ng both the children, of whim the lodgers in the house could p. re no other intelligence than that they were both at home an Nur before. The most diligent search was made after them. ai tl every inquiry made, but to no purpose—not a trace could be obtained as to what had become of them. There is every reason t-i iu ; pose that they have been decoyed away, as they were never known to have left the house in the absence of their parents; and -picion attaches to an old woman of mean appearance, dressed i:c light gown and shawl, and an old black bonnet, who, on the preceding Tuesday. when the parents return home earlier than tisual, came abruptly into the apartment, which is on the ground I.o'r, facing the street, but on seeing the father sitting there, 2 , a,tily withdrew, say ing she had made a mistake. The little girl to:d her father that the woman had been there twice before, in— tin lodgings. 1; is hjjtcd that police °Teets and beadles will give every asi.ist :ince in their power, and apprehend any supicious character t.i:ll a limn might be found either or both the children, whose names are Mary Arm and Aaron Champness. They are both of 4. fair complexion, blue eyes, and light sandy hair • the girl had or a dark s•uff gown, black straw bonnet, and black velvet spec ter ; the boy a dark cotton corderoy dress, and leather cap, with 1 or. The parish officeis of St. (Nave's have most readily, on le.irning the circumstance * caused litunlbilis to be printed and circulated, and every publicity given to this distressing glair. A COVIIT MARTIAL—A Court Martial has been held on board his 31ajesty Queem Charlotte at Portsmouth, to inquire into the circumstances attending the death of a sea wart, named \Vtu. Lewis, late belonging to a sloop culledthe A live. of Weymouth: and to try Lieut. T. Hills, commander n! the Pigmy schooner, for the alleged murder of the said man, lie having died in consequence of a wound received from a taus kit shot tired front that vessel. The circumstances of the case appea.ed to be as fellows :—On Sunday, the 21st ult. the oil' Portland, discovered a vessel which afterwards proved to he the Attire of Weymouth, standing in for land. lie Pigmy immediately bore up in chase of lier, aud she was then o!),er% ed to be throwing something overboard, which was asipliofwil to be her cargo ; and it being concluded she was a seiaggler, the Pigmy hating her colours, commenced a firing of musketry to bring her to. The tiring was continued about twenty minutes, as the vessel appeared to be using her utmost endeavours to effect her e.....ape. When the firing commenced the shot did not reach the vessel, but before she hove to they went over her; and on her bringing to. it was discovered that doting the chase William Lewis, the seaman beforementioned Ii it'. been dangerously w ounded, by a musket bah hating passed t'lrouAb his body. The wounded mail was taken on board the Pigmy, and landed at Weymouth, were he died soon after wards. Nothing contraband was found on board the vessel.— A surgeon who attended the wounded was examined at the Court Martial, as were also the crew of the Actiee.--The de positions of the latter, taken berate the coroner at Weymouth, went to prove that the shot which caused the man's death was fred from the Pigmy, subsequently to the Active having hove ht ; but their tesithnony at the Court Martial wan so contra dictory, an to call forth the atiimititv ersions of the Court ; and the Court having beard the whole of the evidence, and fully investigated the case, pronounced sentence as follows :—" The . Court is of opinion, that the conduct of Lieut. T hos. Hint lies been perfectly correct aid justifiable, under all the circum stances adduced in ev iderce, and that the charge of murder hits not been proved against him, and duty therefore adjudge the said Lieut. T. Hills to he fully acquitted "—The President, the conclusion of the trial, informed Lieut. Hills, that be had tie pleasure to return hiat his sword unstained: and observed, Cud es thy. laws of our country are administered with justice and mercy, so thy require to be adopted with firmness and a lour. Papers from Calcutta to the 16th of December, centaiu advices tiom the settlement of Sincapore to the 4th of November, which arc interesting, as de noting the state of the trade is that quarter_ Mr. D; organ, a merchant of Sincapore, had recently re t ..rnea from a voyage to Siam, and brought very fivourable accounts of the disposition of the King of Siam towards the settlement. It was feared. however, that the commercial intercourse with that country would not, for that season, be on a large stale, in consequence both of the failure to a certain degree of the crops, and from the ravages of the .h 141 a morbus among the lower orders. The trade with the island of Borneo had experienced a great 'increase, scarcely any of the vessels from thence Lacing passed over to Malacca, or to Penang, but vine the preference universally to Sincapore. The trade with the island of Celebes was also flourish lag aria extensive, not less than from 80 to 100 of the vessels of that island being in the harbour of Sincapore at. the date of the letters, besides many that had gone up the Straits. The vessels from Celebes generally brought up the cargoes of the greatest value, and those islanders had acquired a larg,e share of the carrying trade of that quarter. — The trade with Java was limited from the same cat:ses'as those with Siaw. The population of Sin capore gradually Increasas, iu consequence of its eJunnercial prosperity. The Calcutta papers con tans nu Peninsula news of the least importance.
