LONDON, MONDAY, AUGUST 22. Oxs o'Csocx. Tina Day.—Thennemeter, 67. Ba. Termer, 3043. Wind N.E. Weather, fair and cloudy. --....-- We refer our readers to the important details inserted in our preceding columns, bringing the news from Warsaw seven days later than any that has appeared in the journals of the morning. The intelligence given by the Prussian States Gazette, the Austrian Observer, and the Hamburg , ' Re -1 porter, is all of great and absorbing interest, al— though the decisive battle for which it prepares the public mind, has not vet taken place. The Emperor of RUSSIA has published another P:celantation to the PotEs, evidently written in t!:.: state of ignorance and fatuity, which govern Courts and Ministers on popular questions. He sw a nothing of the Polish Constitution, nothing of better government, nothing of redress of grkiances ; but calls on the Poles to yield to the tende r mercies of the Court of Petersburgh ! He offers no amnesty ; but if the Poles submit, then he is to display the well-known and long-tried clemency of an Autocrat. The bait will not take, and we are well pleased that the Poles are still 4:ermined to assert their independence of his plea nre or displeasure. • We have accounts this Jay down to. the 17th of August, but they area Prussian State Gazette teriion. It is admitted that PaSIRWITSCII is sa at Lowieez • but asserted that RUDIGER is at Radom, and that 2.5,000 fresh troops are on march i7om Lithuania. la the meantime the Polish general, Dcm- PLINSIit, has returned with his division from Saliogitia, bringing recruits and horses; and •the i, cannoitring parties of the Poles push on towards I 4 riecz, the Landstrum protects the Warta, and 'icy are masters of the right bank as far es Plock. twirrscit has been five weeks on the left of no Vistula, and hitherto has moved with no con- Ldence. Reinforcements will have to fight their ly for several hundred miles, and the approach f the rainy season and long nights favours the Klee. The 'acting catastrophe off the Angles.. coast Lich above Ova II LT 1 , 1 DYAD !BRION., in the hey-day of health and pleasure, have been sod denly deprived of life, proves that samcia t. az o u ATIO s ought long ere this have beenapplied to vessels, in which so many persons are con-1 stantly embarked. The cheapness and facility of conveyance tempt thousands to adopt it, who heretofore avoided the water ; and a special police should controul the commercial and interested pro prietory. In this case there appears to have been a drunken captain, with no other quality to recommend him ; and in the Haverfordwest case he was a man palpably incompetent to the charge of so many precious lives. Neither vessel, too, was so sea worthy as such ought especially to be ; while there is not sufficient provision of extra boats in a species of vessel, which, to the ordinary dangers of navigation, superadd the chances from machinery and fire. We have collected all the de tails which have come to hand, and they will be read with melancholy interest. We noticed the calamity on Saturday, and we propose to continue our narrative on future days. It is afflicting to see reports in newspapers pub lished in our chief manufacturing and commercial districts, of decay of trade and general distress ; because we knowthat a contrary policy is the gene nil interest of all local papers, and that they would not venture tostate such circumstances, unless the facts were established by the public voice. Thus, even at Liverpool, the emporium of commerce and the focus of enterprise, we hear of serious stagna tion; and in Yorkshire, where industry is a habit of life, we read that a general stagnation pervades the woollen, worsted, cotton, and silk trades. This also is but a reflection of London itself, the port of which never presented so little business, and where industry and trading, wholesale and retail, are suf fering and languishing in all branches. Limited views of causes do not enable many to penetrate the true ones, while others in possession of large estates, or accumulations, harden their hearts by a ready common-place answer, that there always was, and always will be GRUMBLERS. At the present moment, there are thousands so credulous as to ascribe all stagnation to the procrastination of the Reform Bill, and others who suffer in patience, because they calculate on golden days when it shall have passed ! These are of the class who still believe in ghosts and witchcraft—but there are others, and, we hope a majority, who look deeper and farther—and who, from five or six years experience, quote the uncorrected panic, PEEL'S Bill, and the dependence of the country on the variable issues of the Bank of England. Some refer to Taxes, the Corn Bill, high Rents, Land Monopolies, and Exchequer Bills ; while all agree that whatever be the cause or causes they merit prompt and serious inquiry, and better relief than cruel aggravations of the existing merciless laws against Debtors ; and, at least, the active sympathy of the sitting Parliament sad existing Government. I The House of Commons in furtherance of the Reform Bill, met again on Saturday at noon, and sat till half-past six, and it may be hoped that the greater convenience of these hours will lead to a salutary change in the daily hours for legislation. The comparative luxury of doing business during the tintellectual vigour of day-light, instead of the drowsy and exhausting hours of midnight, was felt by members, and all concerned. Various petitions were presented on subjects of public interest, as the Punishment of Death. Molasses, the ill-treatment of Mr. and Mrs Deacle, Marine Insurance, &c. Mr. J. Gordon moved for a present list of Wex ford Magistrates, with a view to expose whether Government has dismissed any of those mixed up with Newtownbarry affair. Sir J. Newport called this itinerant legislation, and referred to a list lately printed ; Mr. Gordon said his itinerant legis lation was better than Sir John's sedentary, and then withdrew his motion. Mr. Rice moved the third reading of the Irish Lord Lieutenant's Bill. Sir John Newport highly applauded the measure, as tending to improve the magistracy, by the influence of responsible per /OW. Mr. O'Connell thought, however, that it would do harm instead of good. He saw no chance of improving the magistracy by giving all the power to one person, to whom the Catholics would object. He preferred even the present scramble to a magis tracy entirely partisan ; and quoted the toryism of the Lord Lieutenancy of England. He did not believe the bill arose from a desire of l patronage, for Ministers preferred only their po litical opponents for apparent want of courage to prefer their friends. Col. Conolly thought this measure was better than the present system. Sir R. Peel, Lord Kit leen, and Mr. Lambert, also approved of it, and the Bill was passed. In the Committee on the Reform Bill, Lord Al thorp moved an alteration in the 18th clause, to prevent freeholders in towns voting for counties, if their premises had a rote in the town. A prolix discussion then took place as usual, and Mr. H. Hughes moved an amendment, and on a division there was 1 against 187. The 19th and 20th clauses relative to Land-Tax and Registration were then agreed to, and the Committee sits again to *morrow. Lord Stormont then arose, and messed govern ment with interfering in the Dablie Lord Althorp said he knew ottbillf of it. Mr O'Connell totally denied the fact, botajihl the anti ream candidates were announcing their ".influence 10111kfronow ministry about to be formed." Lord illanitimt persisted in his assertion, and Mr. Lefroy aid 'police magistrate:was to prop os one of the re llonoiog candidata, and that Sir W. Gusset, Under Secretary of State was canvassing. Mr. O'Con nell justified the selection of Alderman Darley as a nominator, and said that the object of the Noble Lord was to get Ministers to inter fere for the corporation candidates, Lord Ingest:4e and Mr. Shaw. Mr. Crampton said, the charge in that House was a mere election trick ; and after other statements of Mr. Lefroy, and Lord Stormont repeated the assertion, the Attorney General and Mr. Shiel called on Mr. Lefroy for his authority. Sir T. Freemantle and Mr. Wynn thought Sir W. Cosset should be examined, but Mr. Warburton protested against acting on ano nymous information. ROTAL EXCHANGE, ONR O'CLOCK.

To the great disappointment of the speculators and public, the Hambro' steamer has arrived, with- oat bringing any important news from Poland—a battle being expected. The private letters from Amsterdam this morn ing bring accounts that the house of Hope and Co. have a commission from the Emperor of Russia to contract for a new Russian loan in Holland, to the amount of 20 millions of silver roubles, about 3,400,0001. sterling. The interest at five per cent. to commence on the Ist June last. The above loan was brought out at 79, at resent only 78 sellers ; but the Dutch are averse to this loan. From the Havannah they write that Don Prosper Carcea, the treasurer of the navy, absconded with about 110,000 dollars. DUBLIN ELECTION. DUBLIN, UTITRDAY. Ccose Or TIIR Pota..—During the entire day the Court House, fitted up as N o. " 2 freeholders booth, was densely filled with anxious spectators. who evinced a lively interest in the success of the reformers by loud approbation of their sup porters, and as forcible dislike for their oppo nents. At five o'clock it presented an alarming and distressing appearance, from the excessively crowd ed state of every accessible spot within it. A num ber of well known popular speakers were present, and several of them adAressed the assembly in eloquent and very appropriate harangues. Mr. Lawless, the Messrs. Thomas and John Reynolds, Mr. Kelly. Mr. Costello, Mr. J. A. Curran, all spoke ; and Mr. H. G. Curran was proceeding in a very powerful withers when the High Sheriffs and candidates entered the Court to announce the state of the poll. Mr. Sheriff Halaban stated it to be as follows : Gross Pall. Votes not dtelded. Votes allowed. Foe tbe Recorder, 268 ... 90 ... 178 Lo►d Ingestris 200 ... 88 ... 17$ Mr. Latouche, 197 ... 114 Sergi. O'Loughlen 188 .. 112 70 Majority for the Recorder, 92—For lard lngestrie, 89. Mr. Curran was then requested to continue his speech, and proceeded to point out to Lord Inges trie in a rapid, energetic, and eloquent style, the disgraceful faction he had associated himself with, and the consequences that must ensue, if his lord. ship persisted in using such unhallowed instru ments, evidently to the great annoyance of the Re corder, and his lordship, and amid the most enthu siastic cheers of the entire assembly. The Recorder presented himself to address them immediately after, but was received with smiling shouts and groans. Mr. Marcus Costello interfered in his behalf, but with only partial and temporary success, and the learned judge was obliged to re tire, after uttering a few unconnected sentences, amid the same dreadful hooting, with which he was received. Lord Ingestrie accompanied him without making an attempt to speak. Mr. Sergeant O'Loughlen then came forward, and was hailed with a burst of deafening cheers, which continued for some minutes. He said it was his duty to account for the state of the poll as an• flounced by the High Sheriff. lie arraigned the entire system by which the majority was effected, and complained of it as unjust and partial. (Hear.) If his colleague and hi:nself had got fair play, they would have stood at least as high as their opponents. (Cheers.) In the freemen's booths their opponents refused to vote by tallies, and it so happened that the deputies could never see his friends except. per haps, every third or fourth turn. (Hear.) In the arrangement of the freeholders booths the old plan was changed, and the letters of the alphabet so dis posed among them that not 300 votes could be taken where 800 were formerly, and the consequence was that 200 freeholders who were prepared to vote, were unable to get up to the poll.(Hear ,hear, ended groans) And thirty-five persons only could be polled during the day, instead of more than 200 generally polled in the same time. The delays practised were such, that on an average not more than from three to four freeholders were polled in an hour. (Hear, and groans.) It was Com such nefarious and nnjust means that • partial majority was effected by their enemies; but these and other objectionable arts were already in a great measure corrected, and it only required a strenuous effort of their friends to-morrow to place them at the head of the poll..—(Cheers.) The learned gentleman concluded by an energetic ap peal to the electors to attend early at the hustings next morning, and was warmly cheered. Mr. Wombe returned his friends thanks, in eloquent terms, for the support they had already given him. He said the real majority was but 68, and earnestly urged them to come up early to the hustings this day. The Court was then adjourned tiU ten o'closk this day— Saturday. . . WRRCK OF THE ft THSAT-CASTLE STEAMER. UPWARDS OF EIGHTY LIVES LOST. (Prom the Liverpasl Mrsußiek.) II Is this day ma palatal duty to record one of the most dreadful catastrophes which has occurred In this pert of the amnia, for many rein paw. We allude to the inn of the Roth.., Castle, with nearly the whole of her passengers, on the night of Wednesday lea. The Reeks? Castle. oar readers are aware. Is one of the mamma plying between this port and Desertions and Bangor. She leer Liverpool on NVedneeday matting ar II o'clock, for those places, having on board. as nearly as has yet been ascertained from 101 to 105 passengers. besides her captain. crew, hand, ae,amounting to 11l person.. Thr wind was blowing rather freshly from the north-west. tier regular time of reaching Besumaris would have peen rix o'clock in the evening, but owing to the strength of she gale, which was right a-bead. site did not pass the great Onus. head until about ten at night. After leaving the Ornahead, the vessel male directly fir Pus, Island, and about twelve o'clock she reached a bar.k situated about three milt% from Puffin Island, or Prim , - holme. and known by the name of Hotelman's Bank At this time it easiest low water, the wind blowing N.N al'. a heavy gale. Unfortunately, the vessel had been driven too far to the northward, and, owing to this circumstance. as well as to the lownem of the tide, she struck with great violence on the bank. We should state, however, that for two hours before this time the teasel had heonnte exceedingly leaky, and the crew and passengers worked at the pumps by turns, three at a time. When the vested struck, the shock was tremendous, and the shrieks of the passengers. particularly of the females and children, whom apprehension. now gave place to despair, are dcerribrd by the survivors as agonising in the extreme. It is impossible to describe the scene which followed. After the first ahock the passengers, most of whom had crowded upon deck, were ordered by Captain Atkinson to go aft. They had scarcely done this. when she struck again with a violent shock, and then lay upon the bank on her madman] side. The altrum bell was now rung with so much violence that the clapper broke, and some of the passengers continued to strike it for some time with it atone. The bell was heatd we believe, at Ileaumails, but as there sae no light hoisted on the mast of the steamer, those who heard the signal were of course ignorant from whence ft proceeded. The sea was running mountains high, end every wave broke over the teasel; but the mom was shining throughout this distressing scene with a clear and calm serenity. A very short time after the vessel struck, a report was spread that the Captain was overboard. This proved to he the case. The violence with which the waves broke over the deck, rendered it almost impossible for the paesengers to preserve their footing, and we believe that several indivi. duals were at this tin c washed overboard. The females, in particular, uttered the nom pier clog cries; some locked them. selves in each others' MIMI, while others, losing all self-com mand, tore off their caps and bonnets, in the wildness of de spair. Jones, the steward of the vessel, and his wife, who was no board, lashed themselves to the mat, determined to spend their last moments in each others' arms. It is impossible to pursue the details of litich a scene. or to pourtray to the imagination all the circumstances of horror by which it was accompanied. Soon after the vessel struck, a party of the passengers, about 13 or 20, lowered the boat and crowded nun it. It was impossible for any open lost to live in such a sea, even though not overloaded ; and she im. mediately swamped and went to the bottom, with all who had made this last Itopelem effort for self-preservation. Soon afterwards, the vessel being struck by a tremendous sea, separated in two, and one half, on which were about forty person, was carried sway. Among these was Air. John Nuttal, of Bury. whose life was ultimately me served, from whose lips we have ascertained most of them 'freeing particulars. %lr. Nurtal, on being carried away. clung instinctively to the first object which presented itself to his gaup, and found it to roneic of a portion of the wreck, about 2i yards square, consietine of the rudder-wheel, and a portion of the timber to which it was attached. Free other persons were also adhering to the same fragile sup. port, and among these was a boy, son of the helmsman, who had climbed on 31r. Nut•al's back, and clung round his neck. These six individuals succeeded in picking sip other three, and afforded then, a refuge. Among these was bliss Whittaker, of Bur), who was caught by Mr. Nuttall by the hair of the head, as she was swept past them, and thus almost miraculously preserved. They re mained in this peed/on, drifting before the wind and tide, until seven o'clock in the morning. For the first four or five hours the tide was flawing, and carried them towards land, hut when it began to ebb, they were carried out to sea.— Their deliverance was thus effected. Having caught • piece of timber whirls was flo ping past them, they tied a handle. rehire to it, and waved it as a signal, in hopes of being otserved. They alto shouted as long as they could retain any eom. mend over their Takes. Hut although they were now within sight of Beatimaris, they failed for a long time to attract the entice of those on shore. At length Miss Whittaker gave up her ilannel petticoat, which being tern into large strips, was hoisted from the top of the staff; and being by this means at length perceived from the land, the life.heat put off to their assistance, and succeeded in rescuing them from a watery grave. Among the peranra thus saved were, Mr. John Wilyon, of Manchester, a gentleman from Leeds, William Joan, a Liverpool pilot, Bliss Whitaker, Mr. Nuttall, and the boy who clung to his neck. On arriving at Beaumaris they were conveyed to the Head Inn, kept by Mr. Breeknell, where the most humane attention was paid them. They were put to bed, and attended by a medical gentleman, under whose care they speedily ierovered from the state of exhausion in which they were found. Mr. Whittaker, brother to the holy we have named, on finding that the vessel was going to pieces, stripped himself to his shirt, and an being swept away by the wares. lie clung to a piece of wood, part of the wreck. He was rot picked up until half-past eight, by which time he had drifted seven or eight miles to seaward. His deliverers were reverel persons be- Imaging to a pleasute.lmat or schooner. the property, we be neve, of a nephew of 31r. Aldimen Wright, of this town, and which was lying at anc' , or t ff Ileaumaris. The persons on board the schooner heard the bell of the steamer, but there being no light at the mar head, they did not know in what au stcr to kr ad rek f. Wc may litre mention that the only ridden , . on Puffin hula' d are the keeper of the Tele,raph and I is slaughter, who have only a small boat at their command, and were unable to rnder any assistance to the sufferers. The acci den. happened two or three miles from Puffin Island, and eight or nine from Bangor Daring the v. h.ile of Thursday a mother of boats were empl iyed in searching for the bodies of Om suff:rerc a r umber of which were picked up, while crh.es wet: wa.hed ashore. Up to Wile o'clock yesterday monies. 33 bodies had been found: 18 of these were placed I in the County 1141 or Saisions House at Beaumaris, to swift the irtpirst. T te ore,. 20 were on Puffin isl and. We hay • stced that the rumiter of persons on board exceeded i led. Of these 21 individuals have been saved; so that at , tie vary lnwest c enputadon upwards of 80 lives have been lost. 11 it a small proportion of these were residents of lA. 1 ae-pooll ; tl.e 'tree.. st part tieing fru is Manchester, Bury, :eel whet n iris of the country.

They continued on the plank until the morning was far advanced; at length one of them, a foe young man, lost his held through recessive weakness, and sunk into a watery grave. His other companion. a re ther elderly man, soon afterwards shared a similar fate. With great exertion Mr. Martin still retained his hold, and at length picked up a small spar, which was floating post. To this he fastened his handkerchief, and kept continually waving it ass signal, as well as his state of exhaustion per mitted. It at length caught the eye of some boatmen who succeeded in resetting him, after being immersed five hours In the foaming element. Near Mr. Martin was another spar to which three individuals were also clinging. Twn or dress also fell off and were dmwned, and the other was picked up by the same boat which saved Mr. Martin. This in. dividnal was at that apparently lifeless, but was afterwards restored to a stye of consciousness. Mr. Martin was ►e air don his arrival at George's Pier by a crowd of his friends, who conduct:el him to his house in Cable•street. Ills interview with his family was truly affecting. Mr. Rudland, one of the band on board the Itothsay ('as le, was most miraculously preserved by clinging to his bass drum. The following is the copy of a lever which he has since transmitted to his wife in this town : " Beaumaris, Au 18, 1831.

RUDI.ANO" Jones (rite steward) and his wife, to whose melancholy fate we have already briefly adverted, continued with the mast, to which they had tied themselves until it was broken in two and carried overboard. They were never seen alive afterwards. When the vessel struck, and was going to pieces, Mr. nose. jun. (of the firm of &milkmen, Tinne, and Co. of this town,) who is an excellent swimmer, and two others, stripped of their el,ohes, and swam to a plank which was floating in the sea, and contrived loan to it. He soon became insensible, and remained In that state not having the slightest remembrance of what paned afterwards, or of the means by which he reached Beau marls. He soon came to himself, and though much er. feebled by the injuries he eustained, and the exertions be made, we are happy to state be is now in a fair way of re emery. Another gentleman lashed himself and his wife to a plank, and both reached the shore ; unhappily, however, the gentleman died almost immediately ; the lady, we under stand, is doing well. W have the satisfaction to state that Mr. Alderman Wright was not among the sufferers, m ge nerally reported throughout the town on Thursday, nor was be on board of the vessel. The worthy Alderman. who is at present residing at Beaumaris, has been most laudably active in affording every kind of assistance to the survivors. The engine and boiler of the Rotheey Castle remain oo the bank and are expected to be saved. There was on board the steamer a party of 34 indivi duals, all from Bury or its neighbourhood, who were proceeding to Beaumaris and Bangor is a pleasure ex cursion. Of these only three have been saved; Mr. Nut ' tall, and Mr. and Mies Whittaker. We omitted to state that Mr. Whittaker, when takes out of the water, had cow -1 pletelylOn his eye sight, and although it was broad day fight he Imagined that he was surrounded by the darkness of midnight.

TIAMBURGH PAPERS. BY EXPRESS--THIS DAY. SVAIIIAII, AVG. B.—There are various reports 10 circa lsties respecting the operations of the main armies. At four o'clock in the morning, the day before yesterday, some pa wed thought they heard a cannonade in the direction of s i rnauswo and the ?ids, and supposed that there was an a ction there. It was said that Gen. Sierawski had been killed, and that the Russians had already reached Moacsonoir and T o mo. The Journals, however, affirm, that these accounts are false, and that at a late hour in the morning, no account of a battle had been received. Again, it was affirmed, that there mu.t have been a great battle near I.owies and Sochasew, but we hare neither any accounts of such an event. It is dear, however, that such a battle is supposed to be at hand, for there has been a grand religious solemnity in the army, and General Skrsynecki himself rides through the ranks and e:murages the troops. It is believed, however, that Field marshal Paskewitch avoids • battle, because be and the Grand Duke Michael removed their head. quarters from Nieborow and Arkadin, where they they were on the sth on the approach of the Polish army, which has in consequence creased the Rawka, and Skrzy nacre heattquarters has been transferred to Bolimsen, on the left bank of that river. It is said also that the Poles have also crossed the Bzura. The Commander-in-Chief will, it is su pposed, try to find means to compel Field Marshal Paskcwitsch to a battle. The Landstrum has taken sao Cossacks near Raven. The Russians are said to hare taken some hundred horses of the Polish artillery.- o.neral Paskewitaeh is supposed to intend to make a side march, as he did from Pultusk to Float, and proceed from Locks to the Vistula, to join General Rudiger, who would enter Sar.domir at thesame time, and flank the Poles The Russian troops under General Golowvin!are again ap proaching the capital, that General had his head.guarted the day before yesterday at Kaluesya. On the same day one of his nide-de-camps came with • trumpeter to Frage, and delivered several letters for the wives of Russian officers who ire at Warsaw, also to General Rosen t and a declaration that General Golowvin was ready to exchange fora Russian officer, Lieutenant-Colonel llahe/10,6M, who was lately taken prisoner. The Journals of this city say, that the communications barren Lithuania and the Russian army is, indeed, inter rupted; but that the insurrection about Welepsk has spread 13 far, that no troops from that side am come to General Paskewiwh, as General Tolstoi wants them all spinet the insurgents. The Vistula has again rims coosiderably. and is said to have carried away the bridge erected by lindlgeee corps at Jose fon. An important project of law will shortly be brought ilward, to determine the extent of the power of the Oa rernor of the capital during a siege..—Prussiess Sues Cantle, August 17.
