THE benevolent attention of the Charitable of ibis great Metropolis is most anxiously solicited to the lite melancholy event in Donegal Bay, on the North West Coast of Ireland. By this awful visitation, no less than 42 industrious Fishermen, actively employed in providing the means of support ing their Families, have suddenly perished ! Thirty Widows have to lament in sorrow and misery the fate of their Husbands," and 102 Children are thrown destitute Qrphans upon the World! A Calamity so disastrous and extensive is unparalleled in the do mestic History of that Ccantry. Many of the unhappy Sufferers in this Misfortune are rendered totally destitute of support, and others have at once been deprived of Property and Life, by the expiration of their Leases—thus it may be truly said, that all are become equal objects of public compassion. An appeal to the humanity of the Public has already been made in Ireland and Scotland, with considerable success ; and it is hoped that where Charity is fed with such unbounded liberality, the event will not be less favourable.

It is a fact well known, that all Ovens hit berto contrived for the use of fans lies,which are attached to kitchen ranges, owing to the flues, occasion a considerable loss of fuel, as well as diminution of beat. lo obviate this great disadvantage has been the study of the Inventor of the Patent Do mestic Ovens, which are without flues, and which, instead of di minishing, increase the heat, without the least additional fuel. o. H. takes this method of informing the Trade in general, that they may be supplied with them of three different sizes, with or witl.out ranges ; as they heat without a flue, consequently there is no danger of fire happening from them, which is so frequently the case with those that have flues.

Earl GREY rose in the expectation of receiving an answer from his Majesty's Ministers to inquiries of the utmost importance. If be had abstained from put , ting questions on any mevures whatever, to his Ma. jcsty's Ministers until the present crisis, it was be i cause he had thought that Government ought to ex- I no interruption whatever, while considering la renewed application from the enemy for peace.— j This, however, was a period at which he could not I consistently remain silent. He had heard many ru mours of connection with foreign powers that had filled him with no inconsiderable concern. If it was not yet the time to discover the proceedings with re spect to those foreign connections, all he should state was, that - if there should be any Of those rumours true, with respect to inducement held out to powers I opposed to France, by his Majesty's Ministers, no conduct, in his Lordship's opinion, could be more in. jurious to the country, or more impolitic than the con cealment of such measure from Parliament. It ap peared in another Howe, in the account of a Vote of Credit last year, that considerable sums had been ad. vanced to Sweden. If money was advanced to a foreign power, Parliament had a right to know for what.
