THE EVENING STAR. LONDON. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1821. THE FUNDS. • The arrival of the three French Mails which are due to-day, is anxiously expected by both the parties whose operations are likely to be materially influenced by the confirmation or contradiction of the rumour of Russia having sent an Ambassador to the Court of Turkey. The confident language in which it is as toted seems to have obtained for it very general cre dit; and the Market has of course improved, both in appearance and in price. Consols are 78% for Mo ney, and 7834 % for the Account. PRICES OF STOCKS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK Bank Stock 239% 240 3 per Cent.. Reduced 77 3 / 4 14 % 3 per Cent.

N.E. &c. the effects of which are visible along the coast to an almost incredible degree. On reference to our Port Letters, received to-day, it will be seen, that at Yarmouth alone between 150 and 250 vessels lost anchors and cables ; also, a great many vessels suffered in the Downs, at Ramsgate, Harwich, Scar borough, &c. but they are chiefly confined to the loss of anchors, cables, masts, &c. We have not yet heard of any lives having been lost, but it is most likely.— The extent of the damage is not yet ascertained. The extracts will be found in another column. We have received New Brunswick Papers to the 11th of October. The Coronation of his MAJESTY was celebrated with great splendour at St. John's, and the festivities were kept up for several days; three oxen were roasted whole; and, at a grand dinner, at which his Excel lency the Lieutenant-Governor presided, a variety of loyal toasts were given, and the amusements con cluded with a grand display of fireworks. Letters from the settlements above Frederickston state, that the harvest has been exceeding good, and there is reason to believe that much more grain will be housed than will be necessary for the consumption of these settlements. It is stated in the Quebec Gazette that the General Post-Office, London, has determined to forward the Mail to Canada by the American Packet, which sails regularly from Liverpool Gn the first of every month for New York. The King's Packets, it is added, do not usually sail from Falmouth till nearly the middle of the month. The new arrangements will, therefore, give at Quebec a regular Mail from England once a fortnight instead of a month. According to the last accounts from the United States, the fever had not yet suspended its ravages in the infected parts of the Union ; and at Baltimore, Norfolk, and the neighbouting towns, several deaths still took place daily. This a w ful scourge had reached Alexandria, where five or six persons peddled every day. It had been announced that Washington had also been infected, but the report, we are happy to state, was unfounded. That city is scarcely ever exempt from intermittent and ague fevers to a cer tain extent, but they were at this period of a very mild nature, and not at all alarming. At Shepherds town, in Virginia, the sickness prevailed with great •iolence. Many families had not one individual in them able to attend upon the sick. It is mentioned as remarkable, that whilst Virginia and part of Mary land were visited by this dreadful disorder, New Orleans and Savannah, which bad heretofore suffered so much, were now comparatively healthy. On the 6th of September, New Orleans was pronounced the "most healthy city in the Union." The Annivenlary of the Gunpowder Plot was, as usual, observed by all the juvenile branches of the London populace, including some grown up children of the west end of the town, and many a paper coat and mitre fell a sacrifice to the fury of the flames in the evening. Tower-hill had an immense bonfire, which was surrounded by some thousands of persons; and so great a display of fire-works has not been known for years. All attempts on the part of the Police to stop these squibs were useless. No accident, however, occurred, and only one person was taken into custody. A general battle took place yesterday morning in Shepherd's-market, between the populace and peace officers ; the latter having removed Guy Faux gib beted, and replaced the pavement, which had been torn up to erect it. After a smart affray the consta bles kept the ground. The entertainments at Guildhall, on the ensuing Lord Mayor's Day, are to be on a most magnificent scale. Last night the whole of the interior of the Hall was lighted by gas, in order to try the effect of several alterations which have been made in the ar rangement of the chandeliers, &c. The effect was brilliant beyond description. A number of persons were present, who expressed much approbation at the manner in which the whole was conducted. In the midst of their admiration a ludicrous scene took place. From the most glaring light, in an instant, total dark ness prevailed, the whole of the gas being extinguished by a preconcerted signal. Some carious jumbling snatches took place, but a speedy restoration of part of the lights soon restored order and harmony. THE KING. The KING was expected to arrive yesterday at Dunkirk, on his way from Hanover to England. His MAJZSTY was to be met there by Sir CHAIM= STUART, our Ambassador at the Court of France, and other distinguisheJ characters. We have some doubts whether this arrangement might net have been made previous to the alteration of the time for the Kutch; departure from Hanover. It is stated that his MA.7lE:ale design of paying a visit to Scotland, in 1822, is not abandoned. Among the gossip connected with his stay in the Northern portion of his dominions, his Grace the Duke of ATHOL is said to have already made arrangements for equipping, in the genuine Highland costume, a body guard, selected from his tenantry, whose pro ♦ince it will be to attend the Kiwo during his residence at, and excursions in the vicinity of Blair Athol. Friday, Viscount Sinstourx and Viscount MEL mut received dispatches from the Marquis of Lox- DONDERRY, dated from Hanover. - -- The Duke of BEDFORD" and a large party of No blemen and Gentlemen, are at present on a visit to Mr. COKE, at his seat at Holkham, in Norfolk. The Duke of NORFOLK is among the numerous distinguished visitors at Mr. COKE'S seat, in Norfolk. Prince PAUL ESTERHAZY arrived at Chandos- House, at seven o'clock on Sunday morning, fi-om Ramsgate, accompanied by the Chevalier de Timm. The Princess and family are expected in town in a few days. Earl Fire is shortly expected in town from Paris. Viscount and Viscountess GRANVILLE, Viscount and Viscountess Moaprru, are among the numerous visitors to the Earl and Countess of CARLISLE, at their seat, Castle Howard, in Yorkshire.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.—A new Musical Piece, translated from the French, entitled Maid or Wife, or the Deceiver deceived, was last night produced at this Theatre. The plot is as simple as possible :—A hypo critical Baronet gives his wile leave to visit a relation for a few days. The moment she has left his man sion, he turns in his mind how he can best beguile his hours of their loneliness, and recollecting that he had seen a lovely girl in the neighbouring village, he in forms his valet, Ready, that he will endeavour to procure the company and conversation of this fair one, during the absence of his wife. The Lady on whom he has fixed his attention is Fanny Grubb'e, or, more properly speaking, Fanny Ready, as the valet had two months before been joined in holy matrimony with this young Lady ; but the marriage had been kept secret, lest Mr. Ready should forfeit an annuity of fifty pounds, which his master had settled on him as long as he remained unmarried. Mrs. Ready, in the absence of the Baronet, pays a visit to her husband; but, alas! the Baronet, having in vain ransacked every hovel in the village for the rustic beauty who had obliterated his ideas of connu bial faith, returns to his mansion at this critical mo ment, and beholds in Mrs. Ready the sylvan goddess whose ordinary haunts he had so unsuccessfully ex plored. All is delight with the master, who believes the Lady to have been purposely placed in his way; and all is despair with the servant, who sees, on one side, his annuity, and on the other, his honour, in danger. The valet, by a coup de main, settles the bu siness. His master, prior to his leaving home, has given him full power over the servants, and he dis patches one of them with an express to the Baronet's Lady, intimating that her husband was then in a " very dangerous situation—such a situation as no married Lady could wish her lord to be placed in." The Lady returns immediately ; she nearly surprises Fanny and her husband at dinner : a good deal of equivoque ensues, and the Piece ends with the deter mination of the Baronet to raise Ready from the si tuation of valet to that of steward, on condition of his never divulging the Baronet's trifling aberrations from the strict path of duty. This petite drama has consi derable merit ; the situations of the dramatis persona are in general extremely comic, and, before a word is uttered, speak for themselves. Miss COPELAND, who for several seasons has been a leading actress at the Surrey, made her first appearance on these boards in the character of Fanny. The part does not give any opportunity for a great display of talent, but all that could be done for it was performed by Miss COPELAND. Her acting and singing were pleasing. She was very justly encored in a ballad air, intro duced in the dinner scene. Mr. ELLISTON, as Sir George, played well. Mr. HARLEY, as Ready, his ser vant, also deserved praise.—During the performance, some person bad got upon the platform, which is thrown across the pit for the entry of the Champion in the Coronation ; he stood there for a few moments, and several persons called to him from the pit to come down. Mr. &Livros was at this time at dinner with Fanny ; when he suddenly started from table, advanced to the front of the Stage, and in an angry voice said " You must not stand there, Sir!" While the hapless intruder was taking his de parture as speedily as he could, Mr. &Limn added, " This indulgence has been ranted by the audience to the management, and it is to be hoped that no Gentleman will infringe it." The offender disap peared under the emphasis that was laid upon Gen tleman, and no more was heard about him.—The Coronation followed, which was succeeded by Gio vanni in London, in which Madame VESTRIS appeared with her usual success in thefascinating Libertine. ADELPHI THEATRE.—Yesterday evening, after the Burletta of the Corsair's Bride, a new Piece, entitled The Married Bachelor; or, Master and Man, was brought out at this Theatre. It is a translation from the same French Play on which the new Piece brought out last night at Drury-Lane Theatre, is founded. It possesses considerable comic merit, and was given out for another representation, amidst the applause: of a numerous and respectable audience. NATAL INT,ELLIGENCE. Meat, Nov. S.—Wind N. N.W. and moderate.—The wind' last night got round to the N. by E.. and blew hard.

HASTINGS, Nov. s.—During the gale of Saturday, the Danish galliot Young Martha, from Boulogne to liourdeaux, in ballast, came on shore between Hastings and Rye Harbour, near the Martell° Tower, No. 33, and very soon became a complete wreck. Aethe gale increased, with a very heavy surf, it was with the utmost difficulty that a boat could be got off to the assistance of this vessel; three Officers of the Coast Blockade, however, made the attempt in a six-oared galley, hut before they could launch their boat from the beach, they observed one of the crew of the galliot struggling with the waves ; and Mr. Dears, Admiralty dlidshipman, immediately swans off to his assistance, carrying with him a rope, the extremity of which was held by Mr. BARNISTON, who was up to his neck in the surf ; and, al though the sea was very high, Mr. Dawes succeeded in reaching the unfortunate man, who was nearly exhausted, and securing the rope round his body, be was recovered from the devouring element. There still remained clinging to the wreck the master, three of the crew, two women, and three children; all of whom could be distinctly seen from the beach. Every exertion was made by Messrs. Darter., Bummer, and HAIINISION, Midshipmen, and a party of seamen, to get a boat off to their assistance, and they succeeded in reaching almost within hail of the wreck ; but, unfortunately, they were driven to leeward by the heavy sea and tide, and being obliged to make for the shore, their boat was upset, and they were obliged to swim for their lives. This did not, however, deter them from making a second at tempt ; for, hauling their boat along-shore to windward of the wreck, they launched her again, but they had scarcely got through the surf; when the boat shipped a very heavy sea and was upset, and, with five seamen, composing the crew, these brave men were nearly sacrificed to their humanity, being obliged again to swim through a dreadful surf to reach the shore. The scene which followed was distressing in the highest degree; the mizenmast was carried away, sweeping into the sea two women, with three children, and two of the crew ; they were seen for a short time struggling with the waves, but soon sunk to rise no more. Two of the crew still remained on the wreck, and were seen on the foremast, to which It is supposed they had lashed themselves; but as the gale increased, accompanied with a tremendous sea, every attempt to get to them proved in vain. These poor fellows remained in this situation for several hours, but the foremast being carried away at eleven rag. they must have been precipitated into the deep. The bodies of two women, two children, and one man, have been picked up. Poarsmourn, Nov. 4.
