HE Secretary to the SOCIETY of TGUARDIANS for the PROTECTION of TRADE against SWINDLERS and SHARPERS, held at No. 36, Essex-street, Strand, by a Circular has informed the Members thereof, that RICHARD COSTER, (frequently mentioned) now describes himself as a Job-Broker, No. 5, Oat-Lane, Wood-street, and that he also acts as Clerk to THOMAS GRAY, Provision Warehouseman, No. 4, Bury-Court, Love-Lane, Wood-street, and gives his address, No. 22, Lower Smith-street, Northampton-square. JOHN TURLEY, late of Ospreye, Kent, and of 13, James'-street, Marsh-gate, Lambeth, and since, of Old Tan-yaid, Broadwall, and of Rochester. Also JOHN BROWN, noticed last year as a Cheesemonger, 472, Strand, and of Gill'sFolly, Stamford-Hill, and afterwards as JOHN BROWN and Co. Manchester Warehouseman, 8, Budge Row, before he left the Strand, negotiated a Bill dated " London"-drawn by" WEST" on Mr. RI CHARD PORTER," Provision Merchant, Hull, by whom it was accepted, payable at Messrs. SMITH, PAYNE and SMITH'S; for which he received goods and a balance in change, but that on presenting it the acceptor was not known. The above are reported to that Society as improper to be proposed, to be balloted, for members thereof. The Secretary also informs the members, that ROBERT WILMOT has lately made several Notes, dated" Weston near Bath." payable at the house of a member of the Society, and has recently drawn a bill upon him, dated East Bourne"-the said member having given no authority, nor having any assests for the payment of the same. The notes of the "IPSWICH and SUFFOLK BANK" being still in circulation to a considerable amount, the Secretary is desired to repeat the description of them. They are for ONE, Two, and FIVE POUNDS, entitled " IPSWICH and SUFFOLK BANK," signed" for RALPH HOLDEN, SANDERS and Co. RALPH HOLDEN," and are made payable to Bearer on Demand there, or at Messrs. WINKLEY, BROTHERS, and Co. No. 6, St. Michael's Alley, Cornhill, London," and are marked as entered, some “T. L. LAWRENCE;" and others, "THOS. YouNe," and are circulated principally by women, of one of which, the following is a description. She calls herself "Mrs. SMITH, Vineyard-Walk, Highstreet, Croydon," her person is short and thin, her complexion fair, and her age about 35. She is dressed in a straw bonnett, with black ribbon, and a green cloth pelisse, trimmed round the collar and cape with satin of the same colour. The letter addressed to her has been returned by the Post Office, marked “not to be found," and that a person calling himself JAMES ROBERTSON has obtained four Silk Shawls from a Tradesman, stating that he was sent by members of the Society who have no knowledge of him. JAN. 31. We have private letters from Bombay, which communicate to us in a more detailed form than has yet been published in this country, the arrangement made with the Peishwa. He cedes to the British Government territories yielding a clear revenue of 34 lacs of rupees-25 of them fall to the Bombay Presidency, by our occupation of the country from Panwell, or Panwelly, 27 miles E. of Bombay, to Demaun, on the coast N. of Bombay-a line of territory about eighty miles. We are to occupy besides, the Bassein and Jumbosen and its dependencies, and also have the Peishwa's share of tribute from Katty war. The remaining nine lacs of rupees go to the Presidency of Madras. These are provided for by cessions in the Carnatic and the forts of Darwar and Kishelgur. The important fort of Ashmednuggur is also ceded to us, with land around it to 2000 yards. It was taken by General Wellsley on the 12 of August 1803, and ceded to the British by Dowlut Row Scindia, at the treaty concluded in Dec. 1803. In April 1804 it was restored to the Peishwa. The possession of this fortress gives the command of the city of Poonah, and affords the best entrance into the territories of the Peishwa and the Nizam. Certain pasture lands are also given us for our troops in the Deccan. On our parts we are to augment our subsidiary force to 12,000 men. The Peishwa is also required to maintain irregular horse and foot, amounting to 8000 men, to be officered by Europeans. In addition to the above intelligence, it is known that large field forces are on foot after the Pindarees, under Sir Thomas Hislop and Sir John Malcolm, Brigadiers Dovetun, Smith, and Floyer. Sir John Malcolm is associated with Sir Thomas Hislop in the conduct of political affairs. The Marquis of Hastings is also up the country. The cause of the Queensberry legacies has been decided by the Court of Session in favour of the trustees, and against the Duke of Buccleugh. Should this decision be confirmed by the House of Lords, a very large sum of money, now standing in the name of the Accompant-General of the Court of Chancery, will become the property of the legatees under the will of the Duke of Queensbury. The whole of the funds left by his Grace, with the accumulated interest since his death, now amount to upwards of a million sterling! The claim of the Chief Baron of the Court of Exchequer, Ireland, to appoint to the place of Clerk of the Pleas in that Court, bas been rejected in the Court of Error by a great majority. Baron Smith was, we believe, the only member of the Court who gave judgment in favour of the Chief Baron. In France, the Chambers are wading through the interminable projêt respecting the army. Frigates belonging to all the European powers, have appeared on the coasts of South America. The recognizances of all the persons discharged from confinement under the Habeas Corpus suspension have been discharged, and a subscription entered into by Sir F. Burdett's party, for the relief of these men. Monsieur Valabreque, the husband of |
