Naval Service pamphlet exposes Navy officer overstaffing and patronage
A pamphlet by Edward Epwanps presented to Mr Cobbett critiques Admiralty practices. It argues there are far more lieutenants and officers than needed, with many promoted or paid on half pay during peace. It cites forged age certificates, excessive half-pay, and favoritism toward well-connected families, estimating large public losses. The note closes with a brief cotton market update from Liverpoo.

Ireland and Government Observe Troubled Public Mood
At Waterford dinner Mr O Connell spoke of Ireland rising, seeking repeal of the Union, and loyalty to any ministry serving Ireland. He urged 3 million petition signatures, reform of tithes, and an independent legislature, while factions resume agitation against the government. An inquest at Dromond, Louth, into Bryan Martin s death after a pistol discharge yielded a verdict of death by pistol shot with unknown shooter amid a web of violent coercion and firearms in a widow’s household.
