Yesterday, about Le forenoon, the pilots in the Road el off Niewport, and which seemed .e at the mercy of the winds and mmediatcly made towards her and :rreived no answer • 1 -,e Captain t;o: BROUCK, and four other pilots, •xllerc they found no living creature two mon:. ies and a parrot—they then induct t:•is vessel into Ostenkt, and G,lc sea was vcry high, and the rudder hang by only one vingerting, from the papers on board this vessel, it appears that she be longs to Mr. BANDUIN, Sen. of Havre, and is called la Celestine de St. Servan, Captain LATRUITE. Ano ther account says, (le frane- Celestine, of St. Gervais.) It is laden with sugar .and coffee, and comes from , Point a Petre, Guadaloupe, whence it sailed on the 18th of January last. The other account says (from St. Pierre, Martinique.) Every thing seems to shew that she was abandoned only a few hours before she was perceived from the Road of Ostend. There is no news whatever of the crew. We are sorry to add to the list of' shipwrecks, which the fatal gale of Wednesday se'nnight rendered 'so calamitous, the loss of the brigantine Speedwell, of Ipswich, Captain BROWNE. She brought up in Sunderland Roads about six o'clock in the evening, the wind then blowing very hard from S.S.E. at half past nine parted with an anchor, and a few minutes before ten struck on the rock called Suitor's Point. Captain BROWNE, and his daughter, a young woman about 24 years of age, were drowned. - The devastation committed by the recent violent storms upon the public defences of Portsmouth gar rison, we understand, has been estimated at upwards of 80,0001. loss. No similar convulsion of the sea has happened these forty-three years ; when, it is said, the entire of Southsca Common was deluged. The tenements forming Greenwich View, the inhabitants of which were almost literally washed out of their houses in the middle of that dismal night (Wednes day se'unight), continue flooded .tnd uninhabitable. At the departure of the WEYMOUTH store-ship, lately arrived at Portsmouth from Malta, the WASP and GANYNIEDE (Sir C. PENROSE), with the GLAs now, were left at that Island, on the 19th January ; the latter had arrived out the day prior to that on which the WEYMOUTH sailed. The Tnotts, Captain DEANS DUNDAS, had gone to Tangiers, with two Morocco Princes, who had arrived at Malta, on their return home from a pilgrimage .to Mecca. The Barbary States were all very peaceably disposed; they had shewn particular civilities to English yes sels.—The Atetom was on her return from Gibraltar to Malta. The MYRMIDON only was at Gibraltar when the WEYMOUTH sailed, which was on the 24th ultimo. The WEYMOUTH sailed on Saturday morning for Deptford, to land some cases for the Pains REGENT, containing remains (pillars, cornices, &c.) of the ancient city of Carthage, a present from the Dey of TRIPOLI. Captain Hyde Parker is appointed to the Iphigenia, for foreign service; Ca?tain Pettman, to the Ferrett ; Lieut. W. Hewett, to command the Protector surveying vessel, at Deptford ; Lieut. W. R. Coolc7, to the Queen Charlotte • lieut. Pritchard to be agent of a division of transports, just ta ken up at Deptford. The following changes in the Naval commands are stated u being about to commence :—Portsmouth, Admiral Sir George Campbell, vice Admiral Sir E. Thornbrough ; Sheerness, Ad miral Sir J. Gore, vice Admiral Sir Charles Rowley ; Cork, Admiral Sir J. Rowley, vice Admiral Sir Benjamin Hallowell Malta, Admiral Sir G. Moore, vice Admiral Sir Charles Penrose, It is ordered that, in future, no Midshipman shall pass his ex amination for the rank of Lieutenant, until he has completed the six years initiatory service required to make him competent for the rank. There were seven passed at the Naval College, Portsmouth, last month, upon the old order. The influx of company at Deptford within the last few days has been very great, to view the ships fit ting out for the Northern Expedition. Op Wednesday I Morning last his Royal Highness the Duke of CLA: I HENCE, accompanied by Commissioner CUNNING HAM, Captain Ross, &c. were highly gratified with the performances of an Esquimaux a seaman, chris tened some time ago at Hull, by ;he name of John Sackaras. He manoeuvred in a canoe with much dex terity, by throwing a spear fifty yards distance in a , direct line, and then hurling a dart so as to hit the spear with the greatest minuteness, although there I was a stiff breeze of wind at the time. It is not true, as has by some mistake been stated in all the Papers, that any difficulty was experienced in procuring hands for the ships destined for the Northern Expedition. On the contrary, so many offered themselves that some nicety was employed in the selection, and very fine crews have been engaged. We have just been favoured with the perusal of a letter from ;Naval Officer on the East India station, dated Mauritius (Isle of France), Dec. 4, 1817, from which we have extracted the following passage : " We are sent here for the purpose of putting a stop to the Slave Trade going on in this Island ; but that is utterly impossible, as there is an order issued by the Governor, that if Slaves are landed at or in sight of any of the forts, look-out places, or other posts occupied by our troops, they are not to molest or take possession of the vessels or slaves, but follow them to their destination ; then send for civil officers and apprehend the owners and take possession of the slaves : but the civil officers are in the pay of the Slave. Merchants, who send to the former when they are going to land their cargo. They take good care immediately to take to their bed, or go into the country on some pretended excursion. " The Captain of a frigate, who left this three weeks ago, had a pretty trick played him, which he does not know of, but if through this he should, you may in form him that it is really true. Understanding that many slaves were landed frequently at the Great Black River, he sent a large boat armed and manned, commanded by a Lieutenant and a Midshipman.— They had no sooner arrived in the river, 9..5 miles to the S.W. of Port Louis, than a genteel-looking French man (the slave-merchant) pressed them to come and dine with him, which they did ; he then sent gallons of arrack, rum, &c. to the boat's crew, who all got drunk to a man, and strolled about the country ; upon which a vessel came in and landed 100 slaves." Yesterday morning a man entered the Spanish Ambassador's Chapel, Spanish-place, Manchester square, with a drawn sword in his hand, kept his hat on, and proceeded up to the altar, while the Clergy man, the Rev. Mr. AIATTIIIAS, was performing Di vine Service : be made a blow at him, which cut him across the hand and wounded him severely ; the Reverend Gentleman ran from the altar towards the vestry, and was followed by the man ; but he was apprehended by some of the people, and conducted to Mary-la-bonne watch-house for his examination before the Magistrate. It was ascertained, that he was a Mr. COSSACK, a Gentleman of property, and that he left home that morning about half-past seven o'clock for the purpose of going to chapel. It is sup posed that the unfortunate Gcatlemau committed the act in a state of insanity. rHE 411 MY. The whole of the 18th Regiment, except a detach , ment which has marched for Dorchester, is now established at Gosport t and the Ssth Regiment, Co lonel Lonwrzo Moony at Hilsea, Fort Cumberland, and Portchester. Detachments of the 92d Regiment have marched from Belfast to Coleraine, Baileymoney, Toome bridge, Castledawson, Maghera, and Dungiven, to relieve parties of the 50th Regiment, which latter have sent detachments from Londonderry to Dunfa naghy, Rathmullen, Stranorlan, Knockulla, Letter keany, Ramalton, and Mackanish, to relieve parties of the 74th. _ _ Detachments of the Ist, or Royal Scots, have marched from Enniskillen to Drumquin and Derg bridge, to relieve parties of the 74th. Four Companies of the 42d Regiment have marched from Newry to Armagh—three Companies to Stra bane, Lifford, and Omagh, to relieve the 74th, whose head-quarters are now at Newry, as are also the head-quarters of the 42d. MILITARY FINANCE. The Scr-* Mr.EDIroR—At a time when the unexampled pe cuniary difficulties of the Country call for the greatest economy in the Public Expeniiture, we cannot doubt, from the known seal and energy of those who super intend the Finance of the Military Department, that the most minute inquiry is directed to the merits and just claims of all persons whatsoever, who receive money from this source. On a consideration of this .subject, some of the following questions may suggest themselves without offending, or weakening the cause of the deserving object. Perhaps some of your cons. petent Readers can answer them : 1. Is it an invariable rule to male and appoint no new Offi cers to the Army, while so many expetienced Officers are now on half-pay ? 5. Are there any Officers receiving lialf-pay, who for their own interest and comfort never served in the Army at all, or only for a few days, or weeks, at most ; and some who also re ceived their Commissions without price? 3. Are there any Staff, or other Officers '.drawing half or re tired pay, on whatever grounds, who nevertheless enjoy situa tions or offices on full pay ; thereby holding places of more or less considerable profit under Government, in addition to receiv ing the same rate, or nearly the same rate, of half-pay given to unemployed and less fortunate Officers, as the sole reward for the past services of the latter? 4. Are there any efficient or other Officers of Cavalry, Infan try, Artillery, &c. fit for duty, independently of Colonels of Corps, who draw full Regimental pay, yet never reside, or do duty with their Corps? 5. Do any Officers coming under the last-mentioned head, hold military or other situations of profit, or emolument, receiv ed from the Public purse, in addition to the full Regimental pay of their rank? „. . '6. Are wounded Officers who are able, and who , actually do perform their military duties, and receive . fell pay, also over and above entitled to a pension, equally with those Officers whose more severe wounds and sufferings have compelled them to retire on half-pay, and wholly resign all future promotion in their Regiments? 7. Are wounded Officers entitled to a pension or provision for wounds, when they are otherwise well provided for by profit able situations under Government? 8. During peace is it necessary to keep up any men or horses of the Staff and Waggon Corps at home? St.pposing a suit dent number of Officers to remain, could the private artificers, labourers, drivers, and suitable horses be drafted, in the sudden event of a war, from the Horse and Foot Regiments, where there are always many to be had, io as to complete those Corps to any required strength, or could they enlist the remainder if wasted, those Corps never, as fighting men, being effective in the tell of battle? When mechanics and horses are occasion ally wanted for indispensabk public work at home, could not they be hired for those special purposes only; and discharged *hen such work Is completed? The great utility of those Corps, particularly the Staff Corps, upon actual service, no one can question. NUM/. Montreal Papers to the 6th ult. contain the follow ing paragraph :—" The Earl of SELKIRK arrived here on Saturday last, after an absence of about 18 months from this city." The Letters received this morning by the Mail from Gottenburgh and Holland, bring accounts of se veral large failures in Sweden and Switzerland. A respectable Russian house in the City bought on Friday and Saturday all the hemp that they could find in the market. Various are the causes assigned for the transaction, but it is generally imagined that the purchase was made in the contemplation that war between Spain and America is inevitable. The Grand Jury of Staffordshire came unanimousl, to a Resolution, on Friday last, to Petition the House, of Commons for the Abolition of the system of Blood-Money. The Duke of WELLINGTON, it is said, leaves Pari on the 26th inst. for his Head-quarters at Cambray It is thought that he will soon afterwards come tt London, previous to his proceeding to the Congress of Sovereigns. The-Duke, we are sorry to learn, wa , prevented from attending a Levee of the King's 01 Tuesday, by a slight indisposition. The Fashionable World were gratified to an un common degree, on Friday night, by a nouvelle ex hibition at Lansdowne House. The great attraction was to see the Venus de Mcdicis, which, after lyin under ground for nearly two thousand years, was discovered lately among the ruins of Pompeii. Thi , is the original renowned statue, and pronounce, such by CANOVA, who, when he first discovered was seized by such an extravagant fit of devotion as ' induced common people to suppose that his intellect were disordered. It is the finest specimen of tha branch of the art in the known world, and the Nob; Lard sacrificed (if it can be called a sacrifice) muck money and time in acquiring it. This beautiful object is represented as coming from the bath. She was placed in the great banquetting-room, which is at the end of the long range of apartments to the south. —The visitants proceeded to view it with incredibl eagerness. By candlelight she looks as white as snow, and without defect ; but by day the appear ante is different, it having acquired these precious tints so highly prized by the lovers of virtu, ant which time only can bestow. Around the room were other statues, all very fine and real antiques. Refreshments were here plentifully served up unti' two o'clock on Saturday morning, when the part: broke up. In the circle were— The Duke and Duchess of Bedford, Count and Countess Lie , ven, many of the Foreign Ambassadors, Countess Ilarrovrby and Lundy, Marquis and Marcbioneu of Stafford, Lord and Lady Grantham, Lady de Grey, Hon. Mr. Vernon. Mr. Wal pole, Lord and Lady Granville, Lady Elizabeth Fielding, Earl Gower and Lady Charlotte Levison Gower, Lord and Lady , Ebrington, Counter of Mulgrave and L:.dy I hippy.
