Tl:e Marquis of LOTHIAN, who has been staying during the last fortnight at Exeter, left-that city yesterday for Sid mouth. The Court of Vice-Admiralty of Quebec hare sen tenced Captain None's, of the brig William, to pay a fine of' 23001. sterling, for having taken from the port of Dublin and brou z lit to Quebec fifty passengers more than were permitted by law to be tarried in said brig. The Lord Commissioners of the Admiralty have, by a recent regulation, ordered that all Clerks who may in future be entered in any of the public offices under their controul, shall undergo a twelve-month's pro bation prior to their being entered on the establishment. COURT OF ALDERMEN —Yesterday the LORD MAYOR held a Court of Aldermen at Guildhall, for the dispatch bf general business. The Inquest of the Ward of Vintry attended, and made a presentment of ruinous houses in the said Ward, and the Solicitor was directed to p•it the Act of Parliament in force relative thereto. The Town Clerk was directed to transmit to the Secretary of State for the Home Department a Report of the proceMings of the Court, and the Returns of the State of the several Prisons in the City of London, agreeably to the pi ovi . signs of the late Act of Parliament.

The northern coasts of Devon and Cornwall, la))- open to its utmost fury. From Clovelly, we learn, that the sea poured over the Pier so furiously, that one-third of it has dis- appeared, and that the ruins have formed a bar across the harbour.which prevents all ingress or egress. Fortu nately, no fishing boats were at sea, or another catas ' trophe might have happened similar to that in which so many fishermen suffered a few years ago.—The pier of Ilfracombe has also suffered considerable damage.—At St. Ives, eight vessels were wrecked, and two more on the Zennor coax, a little farther westward: The crews of the two latter perished. Four seans that were in the water in St. Ives bay, and two at New-quay, with pil chards inclosed in them, were entirely lost; and eight large sewn-boats, with their scans on board, driven on shore and wrecked.—A sloop from Newry for London, appeared off Falmouth on Saturday, whilst our inform ant was writing, in tow of two boats, her mast and sails blown away. It is to be feared, that this is but a small sample of the damage done at sea, and which time h not yet served to inform us of. The shipping in the well sheltered harbour of Falmouth, suffered no damage whatever; but one poor fisherman, out alone, has not returned. The mail-coach from Falmouth, was abso- lately blown over, in crossing the line of the storm on Whitstone-hill near this city; but happily no person was seriously hurt. Dartmoor, Exmoor, Haldon, and all our high hills were covered with snow, and continued so next day. The Ere rose and flooded the low grounds ; and some of its banks and weirs, particularly the weir at Thorverton, sustained damage. The floods prevented many of the usual supplyers of Exeter market, from at tending last Friday. All our mail and other public coaches lost time. From all quarters we hear of house roofs rifled in expLsed situations, and trees uprooted. From Bath, which descelids into a deep valley through which slowly winds the sluggish Avon, we hear, that so late as Saturday, the houses near the river were in the water, and some of them had fallen under its decom posing power and pressure. Such a flood had not been experienced there for twenty years. A child was seen to pass with the stream, through a window, from whence it disappeared. A waggoner, who persisted in driving his team down a. low road near that city, was glad to halt, and sit on his waggon top several hours, whilst three of his horses perished. No coach, we are told, left that city on Saturday; and the horses of a post-chaise and four, substituted to carry out some mail-bags, ac tually swam. A Gentleman who arrived by the coach on Saturday from town, informs us, that the country round Salisbury is in a sad state, from the heavy rains of the past week. Many houses in that city are flooded. —The Tamer (says a correspondent at Launceston) over ' flowed its banks, from the storm of Thursday night and Friday, higher and farther than for the last twenty years.— Western Luminary. Captain James Hill, of Deal, master and owner of the Neath Castle of that port, which foundered off Wain fleet on the 31st ult. and who has been for more than twenty•nine years a sailor, and during that period three times shipwrecked, asserts that he was never before exposed to the melancholy effects of a gale so tremen , dons as that which so awfully and so destructively swept the north-eastern coast on Friday last. The intelligence communicated by Captain Hill cannot but be deemed highly important by mercantile readers at the present juncture, for he states that a fleet of merchantmen, consisting of no less than one hundred and fifty 'vessels, sailed from Yarmouth Roads on Thursday morning.— With this numerous fleet the Neath Castle remained in company, until the rising tempest became so diffusive and so strong, as to cause their dispersio9 in all direc tions. It is our painful duty to add, that this experi enced mariner yet further stated, that the violence of the hurricane and the overwhelming sea, together with the appalling perils of darkness on a harbourless shore, to which these ships were exposed, when he parted from them, had deeply impressed his mind with a sorrowful apprehension that most of them would be inevitably lost.—Our Grimsby Correspondent's let ter conveys the heart-rending tidings that not less than thirty vessels are on shore between Grimsby and Tetney Haven, an extent of only seven miles, aed that the ship ping has sustained considerable damage during the late gale. Fifty-nine sail are stated to be on shot e on the Lin colnshire coast—on the coast of Norfolk seven sail are on shore between Hunston Light-house and Lynn. The following went down near Wainfleet on Friday last : John Watt, of Sunderland, light, crew saved ;. Neath Castle, Hill, of Deal, light, crew saved; Darby, Hunter, of Newcastle, crew lost; ship total wreck. A brig, the Jason, belonging to Clay, in ballast; crew and vessel lost. Two unfortunate seamen, who perished in the storm, were washed on shore at Wrangle. In the pocket of one of them was a Bible, with the name of " Thomas Hunter, Edinburgh, Sept. 1, 1820," inscribed ; which circumstance, coupled with other memorandums from Gateshead, induces a belief that the vessel belongs to a northern port. The Patty, of Yarmouth, Breeze, master, was found on the Long Sand on Sunday morning, a complete wreck, w ithout a single hand on board. Tne schooner Neutral Fisher, Bawling, of Whitby, in ballast, drifted out of Wainfleet Haven, early on Friday morning, and I was driven into Lynn Roads the same afternoon ; she was boarded by Mr. Mann, one of the Lynn pilots, but was upset in a squall, and he pilot, with a man and .boy on beard, were drowned: providentially the master was on shore, and to this circumstance he owes, in all probability, his life. A brig, name unknown, also went down in Lynn Roads ; two others were ashore, one of them wrecked.—Boston Gazette. A letter of yesterday from Windsor says:- "W e have, here at this present time the greatest flood that has been known for many years ; it came very suddenly, and is supposed to be owing to the great fall of snow in the low country. Nothing can be seen from Maideabeai to Chertsey, but water over the tops of the hedges. E:on is totally surrounded with water, every field is covered, - and the water runs across the street to such a depth. that no one can pass except in a boat or cart ; the Little Park is under water, and part of the Park wall thrown down by the violence of the water. No carriages caa come to Windsor by Dacha, the water is so deep round the wall. The loss in cattle has been very great, because the flood came so suddenly there was not time to re move them to places of safety." PORT: MOUTH, Nov. I . — Thursday night , and d urin g the whole of yesterday, it has been blowing a tremen dous gale from the N.E. but has moderated a little to day. The chimney of Mr. Goodeve's house, in the High-street, Gosport, was blown down by the violence of the wind yesterday morning, and carried away part of the parapet wall with. it into the street. Fortunately , 'no one was pssing at the time but a boy, who, from being hear the wall, escaped with only a slight bruise in the face. A house in King-street was also damaged, and the windows of several houses in Cold Hxibour, were blown in. Soo Amrrox, NOVEMBER I.t-We have experienced since Tuesday successive gales,accompanied with heavy rains. The whole of yesterday it blew a complete hurri cane, .so as to prevent .the arrival of any vessel from Portsmouth, or the mill from the Isle of Wight. Last evening some chimnies of the Custom House were blown down, and beat in part of the roof; some chimnies at the Dolphin Inn were likewise blown down, and two large trees in the Danery gardens. We are happy to say no serious accident has come to our knowledge. The King of SPAIN has pufished the following.De tree, postponing, till after his arrival in Madrid, the adoption of those measures which may be necessary to blend " clemency" with " justice:" "Ever since the first moment of friy restoration to freedom, my paternal mini! has sought to 'fix the future lot of all my subjects, hi order that they might live in security; some in the enjoyment of the rewards due tot their fidelity and loyalty, and others, in the oblivion accorded to their past errors, that they might render themselves worthy of the respect of their countrymen and of my Royal benevolence. At the tame time I have decided, that the principal delinquents, who had placed themselves beyond the reach of pardon, should suffer the punishmeia to which their transgressions had ren dered them liable. But a subject so interesting, and which must form an epoch in the annals of our religi ous and monarchical restoration, requires the deepest meditation. When I shall arrive at Madrid, and be there surrounded by the lights with which my counsel lors, with all their reflection and well-tried wisdom, will supply me, I will make known my Royal will, re gulating that will according to my natural clemency, to the claims of public justice, to the tranquillity of my people, the security of the throne, and to those rela tions which so closely unite me with the Allied Powers. This, my sovereign will, shall be made known to all the people of this Realm, and my Council will be held charged with its execution. " October 9.2, 1893." Some notion may be formed of the consternation produced by the Decrees of FERbINAND, from the statement that since the period of their being issued, no less than 8000 passports have been applied for and de livered. It is a moderate computation to estimate that, upon the average, each of these 8000 persons has three or four relatives or connexions—wife, children, parents, brothers, or friends—upon whom must fall, indirectly, some portion of the penalty attaching to the proscribed individual. Thirty thousand persons are thus, by the mere force of circumstances, made to have a direct and powerful interest in bringing about another change, and these 30,000, too, comps ising many of the most powerful and influential characters in Spain. A calcu lation like this, strews, at once, the impolicy of such indiscriminate and comprehensive punishment. Yesterday, the chief topic of conversation in the English Stock-market, was a large transfer of Reduced Annuities from the East India Company to the Bank of England, in pursuance of an arrangement made be tween the Directors of each establishment, and by which, we understand, the Batik has lent the EaTt India . Company £2,500,000 at the low rate of interest of 2 1 / 2 per cent. according to report, for the space of two years. The amount of Stock transferred, we under stand, is nearly £2,700,000. The following is an extract of a letter from Gibraltar, dated Oct. 16 :—" We are crowded with the unfortu nate Spaniards who have taken refuge here to escape the miseries of a dungeon, or the tortures of the bloody Inquisition. Among them arc upwards of sixty of the most distinguished Deputies of the Cortes, as Valdes, Alava, and Infantes; Quiroga, Yandiola, Mauzanares, and Calatrava, are also here. They seem much at a loss to select a point of retreat and security. At first it was their intention to have gone over to Ceuta, and maintained themselves as Constitutionalists ; but hav ing practised a ,reconnoissance, the want . of supplies, and incapability of the works to - withstand a siege, in duced them to abandon the project. We have had many French men of war lying in the Bay ; on their first visit they worked in an extraordinary tinseaman like manner, but are now improved.—Sir Robt. Wilson arrived here a few days since from Cadiz and Tarifa; he was at first undecided as to his future destination, but has determined at last to return to England, in the first packet.—There never was such an influx of Con trabandistas to Gibraltar; they take advantage of the disorders which everywhere prevail throughout Spain, to smuggle with impunity. Freon Cadiz, we learn, all the old prohibitory commercial regulations have been revived, and that the French watch their execution, ex cepting when it implicates any of their own sessels. They are also repairing the fortifications with great activity ; the breaches formed by the sea are almost closed up, and it is uoderstood they intend to erect a fort on the Puercas, or rocks at the entrance of the har bour. These precautionary steps indicate strongly, that the occupation is not quite of such, a temporary nature as many would wish to believe." Tee of Loons!—a proposition has made its ap pearance on the Stock Exchange for one to the Knights of Malta ! ! The • ingenuity of our -monied men seems taxed to the utmost to find out persons to lend their louse cash to. We should as soon have thought of lending half a million to the Poor Knights of Windsor; as to the Knights of Malta; but tastes no doubt differ. The money, it seems, is to be repaid when the Order of St. John of Jerusalem has recovered its estates in France; and it will recover its estates as soon' as it has got " a local habitation, and a name." What it wants just now with so much money we are not informed ; perhaps it is to set up again the Colossus of Rhodes. Sunday laic it was discoyeied that the convicts under sentence of death in Newgate bad it in contemplation to effect an escape, by an ascent to the top of the Gaol from the Press-yard. In consequence, the Governor, aided by his assistants, repaired to the yard, and there , discovered that the rugs and blankets of the convicts had been actually cut into slips, in order to form a lad der far their escape. They were all immediately locked tip for the night. On Monday morning the She- Jiffs attended the Gaol—in examination took place, the result of which was, that three of the, principals were double ironed, and confined to their cells. The SPEAKER of the House of Commons has been taking an extensive tour on the Continent, accompanied by portions of his fatriliy. The Honourable Gentleman first went to Paris: thence to Geneva, remaining a con siderable time in the neighbourhood of the tlcautifel -Mikes theme; and afterwards proceeded •to Florence, .where he rentaitied, and *as in. excellent health accord• ing. to the Matterviast idateeved.ftwa him. •His return is :expected 1,1 about a foil sight's time. iNTALLIGENOE. •IEh7N !NG. .

MARTIN AND DEFOI. These heroes cannot agree as to weight, sum to be fought for, Etc. ifs and buts stand between them. Defoe thinks himself insulted by the letter of Martin, which has been already published, and on that account wool.' prefer him to any man, if he will fight for 501. a-side, and y' his weight does no: exceed his (Defoe's), which he states to be ten stone twelve pounds., THE MURDER OF MR. W.IVEARE. We mentioned in a former Paper that Mrs. Probert and Miss Noyes were to undergo a private examination before the Magistrates, for the purpose of ascertaining how far their stories coincided with the statements of the prisoners in custody.' This examination took , place yesterday, at the house of Mr. Ciutterbuck, at Watford, but was conducted, from prudemial motives, with• great secrecy. All the Magistrates, who have hitherto ex erted themselves on this painful subject, were present, as well as Sir Charles Poole, and several of the prin cipal inhabitants of the neighbourhood. Mrs. Probert and her sister were taken down to Wat ford on Monday night, in separate post-chaises, the former in the custody of Bishop, the Bow-street officer; the latter, under the care of Simmons, a local constable. They did not reach the Essex Arms till twelve at night, and it was then announced that the Magistrates were forthwith to enter upon the examination. After some• time, however, it was notified, that the proceedings were to be deferred till the. next day. Miss Noyes seemed to be much more sensiby affected than Mrs. Probert. She cried almost incessantly, and was greatly depreved. After having had tea in the same apartment with the officers, they retired to rest in separate chatne hers, in which they were locked up for the night; Miss Noyes entreated that she might be allowed to have a light during the night ; but this was refused, as well as a subsequent request, that the chamber-maid might be allowed to sleep with her; she in consequence spent the night in darkness, and, we understand, in the greatest agony, not venturing to go to bed at all. In the morn• ing they breakfasted again with the officers, and soon after ten, were conducted on foot to Mr. Clutterbuces house. We understand, that the great coat worn by John Thurtell on the night of the murder has been found, with the lining of the sleeves cut our, as if for the purpose of removing the marks of blood; there are such marks, however, on other parts of the, coat, it is also rumoured, that the bloody clothes of Weare have been found in the lodgings of some of the parties. Hunt and Probert arrived at Hertford Gaol between four and five o'clock on Sunday morning, in two post chaises, and well guarded. John Thurtell has been con fined there since Thursday last. The visiting Magistrates have ordeeed the three nri-, boners to be kept - sepaeate; that th6y he double-ironed, and that no person whatever permitted to see either of them, unless by the special order or in-the presence of a Magistrate, excepting the Chaplain to the Gaol. • The arrangement of cells was discussed in the pre sence of Hunt and Probert, on their arrival ycstereay morning. On the Magistrates' order being alluded so, Hunt betrayed considerable alarm, and entreated that he might not be kept in solitary confinement. "Vt !:,y should you fear being alone?" was asked; the reply was evasive, Hunt. only observing, that he should greatly refsr the company of three or four persons. Although it is determined to keep the prisoners apart from each other, it is nevertheless ordered that two men 4oeld always be with each, and Hunt's desire is therefore present complicd with ; he is in one of the rooms usual] y - devoted to female prisoners, of whom there ale none in the Gaol at this time. John Thurtell is about 32 years of age; he appears under great mental depression, indicating a strong in ternal struggle, yet he sleeps soundly, and maintains as invincible silence with the men placed over him. - He sent for the Managing Director of the County Fi:e- Office, who immediately left London for the jail; an interview took place, when Thurtell begged - that.bail might be taken for his brother, on the wartantfor con , Tiring to defraud the Insurance Office, as he had* large family: : The Gentleman observed, that hie:. ,pected the prisoner had some important comniunication to make; he replied, that he could confess nothing, for his brother was innocent of the charge. Sunday the three prisoners attended Divine Service; they were in three distifict pews ;' the text was appux priate, e Do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with thy GOD." A pin might have been heard drop during the Sermon. Beyond mute attention, nothing was ob.i servable in the conduct 6f the prisonerss The following is the subitarice or a statement given by Probert Thurtell pretended to be paying his addresses to my- sister-in-low, Miss Noyes, and there fore frequently came to my cottage; on the Friday on which the murder was collimated, he came to me and said he wished I would give Hunt a seat in my gig, as he Was a good. singer, and would much amuse Miss Noyes, and greatly contribute to the conviviality of the cottage; he Observed that he could not take him down with him, as he had promised to give a Gentleman, a friend of his, who was going into the country, si lift on the road as tar as he was going ; I consented to 'this re, quest, and Hunt left London with me in the gig.
