The following is a Copy of a Letter received this morning from Ike Agent to the North and South American Coffee-house, dated New York, September 18,1827 " The American coast, and nearly all the West India Islands, Mei', visited, during the lastemonth, by violent hurricanes, and Mel ‘strietion of persons and property has been very great. The flaw Packet has arrived here from the City of St. Domingo, the Captain of which gives a very unfavourable account of the burn eroe there : it commenced on the 18th of August, from the S.E. sad terminated with the wind from the S.S.W. All the mahogany zeir the coast had gone to sea, and would probably be lost ; mostl cf the vessels in the harbour were driven on shore ; the vessels at 'anchor at the mouth of the harbour * got under weigh, at the commencement of the gale, and put to sea, and were all wrecked. Two vessels, mahogany loaded, went to pieces at'the mouth of Sc. Domingo River, and parts of the crews loot; several Haytian c 0...... were lost,.with all their crews. " The following meets have been lost on the coast: British barque Alonzo. nine of her crew lost; British brig St. Domingo, melon lost; British brig Julia, one man saved ; British brig Sa. ma o, Gland" part of the crew saved; the British brig Eliza- Mk, Nelson, sailed from the coast a few days before, and fears wire entertained for her safety. The British schooner Friendship has arrived at New London Dam Nassau, N.P. in distress; bound to St. John's. The Brithh schooner Jane, of Belfast, atrived at Wilmington thleth of September, from Kingston, Jamaica, in distress; her ergo consisted of sugar, rum, coffee, &c. She experienced consi *table damage in the late gale, and had the misfortune of having the Captain, Sankerson, and three men washed overboard, and lost the Second Mate. Dlr. M`Kenzie was also washed overboard, but regained the vessel, and brought her, in a shattered state, to this rort, where she will be obliged to discharge her cargo to re pair damages. o 'Au English brig, with a cargo of mahogany, valued at 165,000 dollars, was ashore, twenty miles smith of Ocracock.“ The Devonshire, Aciamson, from Dublin to Liverpool,' was driven on the necks near Holyhead on Thursday night, and, It was feared, would be wrecked.

We have much grat fic ad an in announcing the arrival rat Captain Back and Lieutenant Kendall, of the Royal Na' y, in charge of the Land Arctic Expedition, who landed here yesterday marring from the ship Ptinteol Wales, last from York Factory, Hudson's Bay, which they le t on thelSth of September. Tnese intrepid facets, as well as their shier, are arrived home in the most perfect health, as are sixteen of the eighteen men who accomo.mied them in their arduous discoveries— one of their Amber was lost in a rapid. and one died from n +tura' causes. Captain Back accompanied Cap tain Franklin in his endeavours to reach Icy Cape by the western Channel of Mackenzie's River ; and Lien• tenant Kendall vent with Dr. Richardson, in an eastern direction, to examine the intermediate coast between the Mackenzie and the Cnppermine Rivers. Thiugh neither party I f the Expedition has actually traced the navigation of a Nottb-west passage, yet they are per fectly satisfied, - from the success which has attended their discoveries, that a passage is open from Davis's Straits to Betting's Straits, or from the North Atlantic to the North Pacific Ocean ; and thus the geographical problem is solved, that the great Continent of America lean island only, but from insurmountab!e obstructions of ice, the passage around it can never, or but •very seldom, be navigated. The ship Prinie of Wales went past for the River; with the men on board who were easployed in the Expedition. Captain Back and Lieu tenant Kendal Net off for the Admiralty. Letters have been received here from Sir Edward Codriugton's squadron, dated off Navarin, Sept. 25, which state, that they were then blockading the Turkish fleet in that port, which consisted of four sail of the line, fifteen frigates, twenty•five corvettes, and a number of smaller vessels. Nothing particular had occurred slice they had commenced this service, which was in cenformity with the Tt ea ty made with the Governments tf Russia and France, and which had been noti fi ed to the Comm an d er o f tbell.eeti as well as what measures would be pursued to carry the Treaty into effect.

The Arab left on the 2d of September?, whom a l relieve/kiss was going on with tranquil prosperity. A greater number of emigrants, principally from the North of Ireland. had arrived out this season than in any preceding ; some had gone into the United States, but the greater num• her had distributed themselves in the Upper Provinces, whilst some hundreds had obtained employ in the new grand Canal, which is forming betwee n Kingston and the Ottowa ; so that, considering the great influx of pauper emigrants, no great degree of distress was anti cipated in the approaching winter season. With respect to the staple article of trade at Quebec, we understand that the quantity of timber shipped this season for Eng land was materially smaller than it had been during the three preceding years, in consequence bf the over trading having created a large stock on hand, in the great English markets, and that only five new ships had been launched this year; but still, things had so accommodated themselves, that but little mercantile embarrassment was felt, and the industrious labourer had not' wanted employ. We do not hear of any ship ments of wheat for this country. Yesterday, the brig Mary Anne, E. Thomas, Master, arrived fr om St. Domingo, in 42 days, with coffee, to Cowes, for orders.

LANARKSHIRE ELECTION.—The time appointed for the election of our County Representative is now at hand, and, in proportion to its nearness, is the intensity of interest felt by the public in its issue. We know not whether it may be regarded as an indication of strength on the one hand, and of weakness on . the other, that the party of Sir MICHAEL SHAW STEWART continue to de port themselves with so much coolness, while those who t ank under the banners of the Hon. CHAS. DOUGLAS become every day more eager and strenuous in their ex ertions. Such at least is the fact, whatever be its cause. We are told that at Lanark, the bustle of preparation against the approaching 16th curt. is prodigious, and that every man, woman, and child in that ancient burgh, has imbibed the spirit of,„oo,Anntest, and become most inveter'are politicians of. *the hour. The, t%VD candidates have hired suits of apartments in the same inn.-. 4 proof that they are not afraid of each other!: near neighbiHrhood ; and, from all we can learn, the 16th of October bids fair to surpass in interest any other day recorded in the annals of the good town of Lanark. The consummate epicurism and coarse manners of Qum, the actor, often rendered hint a very disagree able guest. Dining one day with the Duchess of M BOROUGH, her Grace, to his great surprise, helped her ! self to the leanest part of a haunch of venison, which stood near her " What !" said Quia, " and does your Grace eat no fat?" " Not of venison, Sir."—" Never, my Lady Duchess? —a Never, I assure you." Too much affected to restrain tis genuine sentiments, the 4 epicure exclaimed, " I like to dine with such fools." DREADFUL ACCIDENT.—J , iday evening a melancholy and fatal accident occurred between Doncaster and Ferrybridge, about half-past seven o'clock. The Yoilf Highflyer Coach was on its route towards Don caster, whe t a Gentleman on horseback being observ. ed gallopping towards the coach at a most furious pace, plenty of room was given him to pass; but unfor tunately the horse came in contact with the splinter bar of the coach, and threw the rider's head with such tremendous force against the foot board, that he was killed on the spot—his head presenting a shocking spectacle. Some idea of the vio!ence of the concussion may be formed, from the fact of the foot board being smashed by it. We have not heard the unfortunate Gentleman's name. SHACKING ACCIDENT.—Friday, a barge, heavily la den with chalk, was proceeding from Gravesend to London, when in Clement's Reach the violence of the wind, and the extent of the cargo, rendered her unma- nageable, and she rapidly filled with water. There were six persons in her, four of whom were in the cabin be low, when an instantaneous shout proceeded from Smith, who was conducting her, and Charles Leigh, an apprentice to him. The four men below barfly endeavoured to ascend, and one of them had actually reached half way, when the water poured in so copi ously as to wash him back, and, together with the re mainder, in a few moments sunk with the bargi. Whilst she was sinking. Leigh and another jumped into a small boat which was lashed. to her stern, which in their anxiety they overarm fortunately precipitating Leigh beyond its section; but his companion, less for tunate, wasimbsequessine isead w on the tide needing, lifeleseieerder shore. Leigh continued swimming until Nature had become nearly exhausted, when he happily reached one of the hatches, which had been washed from the barge, and after remaining In that situation nearly an hair, he was drifted oss the Essex ride of the River, and by some labourers he, with the corpse of Ms 'mate, was conveyed to •the Wharf-house at Grays. •The bodies of the other individuals have not yet been found. Captain Itasca &IVENS of the sloop Magdalene of Montrose, was drowsed in that bay on Tuesday night. He was in the act of wearing his vessel, when he got entangled with the main boom or sheet, which swept him overboard; and in consequence of the high wind and darkness of the night, no assistance could be rendered. Mrs.Por.r.ocx, a respectable widow, who resides with her daughter and son•in-law, at Tully, in the south liberties of this city, became blind 22 years ago, from inffammationia the eyes, induced by one of them being injured by a stalk of flax. During this long period, the book of nature was a complete blank to her,so completely had" dim suffusion veiled" those tender organs. Thus she continued, without the remotest hope of ever discerning an object, when, about two weeks since, she said to her daughter, Mrs. Stephenson, " I think, my dear, I per ceive the window ; Has it bars across i t ? " " Th at were a happy circumstance, indeed," replied the daugh ter ; " but I fear it is only imagination, as the window has no bars." The mother was silent for a minute, and ' then exclaimed, " I think, daughter, I can see my arm." It was no phantasm; a kind Providence was restoring what he had taken away; and from that moment the object of his goodness has been daily improving, inso much that she can now clearly distinguish the different members of the family, and walk abroad without needing, as formerly, one to lead her by the band.— Londonderry Journal. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. NEWMARKET SECOND OCTOBER MEETING. • flowitar Evennto. . From the value of •tho Stakes (between six and seven thousand pounds) appointed for decision this Meeting; the high character of the horses entered, and the *anticipated numerous attendance of the Nobility, we have good remain fee expectiog in excellent week's spurt. There are two or three sales daring disc week, from the stud of the Duke of :Grafton, Lord Anson, lac. including the fol donimendblanawnwhowoos--Patamostr, Arab, a two-year old filly, by Woful, out of Catgut, Picluet, Zaida—lna. Prue, Elizabeth, by Orville—:Miniature, Careless, Sligo, Noureddin, a two-year old colt, by Merlin, out of Prue, a yearling f. by Tramp, out of Psue, a filly foal, by Whisker, out of Elizabeth; a filly foal by Emilius, out of Prue, a colt foal by Morisco ; out of Miniature, and a filly foal by Morisco, out of Ina, Theorem, two yearling colts by Tireslas and Centaur, and eleven brood mares, colts, and fillies, from Mr. R. Wilson's stud. ' The most important Stakes to be run in the ensuing week, are the Garden Stakes, the Cleaewell Stakes for two year old (won last year by Mr. Haffenden's Trumpeter), the Prendergast Stakes for two year olds, and the Frogmore Stakes,. Souvenir is the fa. vomit, for the Garden Stakes, in consequence of the very light lorsight es her (6st. alb. only): but there are some who think that notwithstanding this advantage, she will have plenty of work cut out for her by Babel, Tincoman, and Sligo; for our own parts, we think that the distance (the T.m.m. course) will give the older horses a good chance with her. Lord Lowther's Scribe is the favourite for the Prendergast, in consequence of her having won the July Stakes; it should be recollected, however, that Juryman could have won that Stakes easy, had not Lord I.owther declared to win with the filly—and that for the Prendergast she has a field of twenty-six horses against her, most of them fresh ones. The Frogmore brings out a good field of Derby horses ; the race seems ) to be between Espagnolle and Grampus, 5 to 4 having been taken between them—the former having the call. It is a matter of doubt whether Glenartney will start; high odds bate been offered against him. The match for 890, em be run to-morrow, between the two Oaks fillies out of Donna Clara and Pontine, is expected to be a close affair, Donna Clara giving 31b. she is the favourite.— Lunacy has the call io her match against Lord Tavistock's Pledge colt. A great many two year olds will come out in the course of the week, anal thus afford some clue for the betting on the Derby and Oaks. Lord Anson's Heroine, who is entered in the Garden Stakes, is dead. Mameluke is at Mr. Dilly's stables; he takes common exercise only, and looks well; he has not had any gallops, and having no engagements, is not expected to run any more this season. There have keen an amazing number of horses out this morning from the training sullies of Messrs. Stephenson, Blow, Doe, Prince, Edwards, Marsden, Cooper, Pettit, O. Payne, Dilly, Boyce, Theakstone, Cbifney, and Rogers. They are all in a very i healthy state, and as there are three or four trials daily, many us them are expected to be matched. King Charles the Second's Plate, annually run for here by Charter, on the second Thursday in October was not contested last Thursday, Captain Watson's ch. g. Sysem,nade by Mr. J. Wether. by, having walked over. It was fully expected that Mr. Howe's Skiff would have started—being on the Course in riding order, and his Jockey ready to mount; why be was withdrawn is a secret to us.

INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF COM.N — TX - PLEAS, Oct. Is. 'JOHNSON V. trawarae. Me. Sergeant Witoe, with whom was Mr. Comets', stated that this was an issue directed by t! , e Court of Chancery, to try a question of very gre.t importance to the commercial world. The Legislature, in order the more effectually to protect the fair and honest veJitor, •• had, by the A:t of the 47th Geo. 111. proeidecl . that the freehold estates of persons dying insolvent, and who were traders, within the operation of the Bankrupt Laws , .s , ouldbe.liable to the payment of their debts ; but the f eehold property of those who were not thus engaged io business was not so liable. The facts of this case . were these :—A Mr. Rome, who for many years kept the Prince of Orange Hotel a: Gravesend, died in 1819. About three months previous to that event he transferred the Inn to his son-in.law, the present de. 'en rant—but, as was alleged, yet kept the stables. At t!.e time of his death he owed eonsidereble sums of money, and upon his creditors inquiring - how they were to get paid? they were met with the answer that the deceased had sold the Inn to the present defendant, who was to be allowed ten years to pay for it, ant that the freehold property could not be touched on account -of Rowe's having : for some time previously to his death ceased to be a trader. The ciedithrs hereupon filed a bill in Chancery, where, after several hearings, this issue was ordered to try whether the deceased was a trader at the time of his death? John Banks knee the deceased Mr. Rowe, from 1805 to 1819, in which he died—during that time he kept the PI ince of Orange Hotel, and bought and sold wineand si.irits, and also hay, &c. W. WcrAward, oseer to Mr. Rowe—Perfectly recol lected his leaving the inn, he was then in an Intl m state , of health—he me that he yet remained my master and John's, the other ostler, as he had not given sip the . . tables, nor should he during his life; but that if it pleased , ...* GOD to restore his health, he intended to open a corn chandler's shop. 4nibro.e.Everett—Made a board, by Rowe's orders. upon which was Written " W. Rowe, Dealer in Hay & Straw, and Corn." Mr: Mathews, plaintiff's solicitor—With the , excep tion of the inn and freehold property, Rowe had only property to the amount of about 1001.; his a,certained :.debts were from 1.3001.143,14001. Several other witnesses were called, who proved their . Milling hay and straw to Rowe shortly befo.e his death. • Mr. Sergeant TADDY, for the most part agreed with the law as laid down by his Learned &oilier. The principal question for the consideration of tl e Jury was, did Rowe intend to be merely a livery stable keeper, or did he intend to become a gem ral dealer in hay and s•raw In the first pace, as under . the old Bankrupt Laws, he could not have been made a bankrupt, this issue must be found for the defendant. Tire Learned Sergeant contended that the evidence was altogether ie. sufficient to prove any thing like a who l esale dealing. lie then cal ed several witnesses, whose evidence,Was _quite contradictory of that for the plaintiff. . who heed opposite, 'term saw theshoir . board; and he must have done so, had - it been Mt. Barnett, the proprietor of the Lord Nelson hotel, never heard of Rowe's dealing in hay and straw. Several other witnesses gave similar testimony. Mr. SergeantW tun having replied ; the LORD Plitt" JUSTICE summed up, and the Jury found the issue for the plaintiff. TIIE. MARKETS. CORN EXCHANGE., MARK-LANE, Orr. 15.
