Many persons made .loog speeches in favour of as imusediste .leclar.stion Hof in.lepeedener, inasmuch as there was no longer any government in the mother country, and this morning the city gnarls were donblsd, and the streets appear crowded with soldiers. That. the people are dissatis tied with the present state of things ts certain, and that a 'change mast take place is, in my opinion, rurally certain." The Alarlboroegh parket,Capt.

' The following account of the disaster which betel the brig George the Fourth, of Waterford, boos) to Qiwbec.l has been transits:Merl to the Waterford Mirror.. signed by 'several of the passengers, as a testimony to the steady and manly behaviour of the master of the vessel : • " Oh the morning of the 20th July we dropped down to Passage; we proceeded on our voyage the nest day, and desired the Cape on Thursday, sod though the winds were mid year, we were buoyed op with the pleasing expectation of aeon retching our destined port. The passengers, 118 in sum• ber, were nearly recovered from their sickness, and all sad cipating the pleasures of meeting kind friends, sad' pleasing schemes for future happiness sad wagon, when the cap was unexpectedly dashed from our lips by ono of the meet dreadful calamities teat fall to the lot of seafaring area. At half pest It on the morning of the 14th all hands were aloft reefing top sails, when they discovered a bark close under oar bow • the dreadful word was elven to pet the helm hard up, and aatlber 'new desired it to be put bard down, when she immediately struck us under the starboard bow, which drove away the bow sad carried away bowsprit, which, getting foal oft he Wainer 4be bark, we received a second shock on our larboard bow. which carried away part of the bow, and otcerwise damaged oar figure head awl cut-water; they continued to strike each other's broadside for a few minutes, when our cbaisplates Mate way ; providentially for as the foremast of the bark. Lull right fore and aft oa her own decks; had either of her masts fl :en aboard of us we should both bate inevitably perished together. Previous to our parting, the stump of oar bowsprit became foul of their arisen, which brought it over die lee side of the bark. Such was dm terror and apprehension entertained of our vessel, that the Mate and five of the Seamen left las and 1 west on board the bark; she being home-band sod timber 1 loaded, they considered themselves safer Oa board her. — At the time the ship parted us, several persons ex claimed—'• we are going down by tne sera "--The confusion become dreadful—nothing but lamentation and cries for mercy was to be heard. every person oa board waiting in dreadful suspense. expecting every mommat li he the last, when the Captain went down into the cabin, opeO ed the under the latch, and found that she made no water; sag' one of the seamen went forward and made the same saysiryki. the hold, When the joyful tidings were gives that we had rots leaked no injury In our hold. Oar masts remained standee 'Mill day-light, when the foremast fel., which renewed the ter• tors of the scene ; and with it the topmast; there was nothing loft for us now but to put hrfore the grind, which peovidantlally, blew from the westward. We were about 1,0110 miles free Waterford when the disaster took place. " We have every reason to hope tbat the bark wlli etieldBllloh, to port, as the light from her was discernible ter a ameatiers. ' Me time. Oa Sudsy, the 17th, we were spokes by a PAPUA brig bound to the westward, which kindly offered us assistance, On Monday, the. 18th, we were spokes by the Triaelsoloef Providence, bound to Antwerp. who humanely offered us as: sistanee. We mention these eircumstasces to show the mai kindness of a British brig, which passed us the mania, Mks" our misfortune, without taking the least notice of us. Snell was the terr , r under which moat of the passengers laboarod t that it required all the fortitede and courage of the stoutest hearts io support them daring the remainder of oar stay de board, as every little stock or roll of the vessel renewed their dears, so much that it bar.lstiad sleep from the oyes of severe( of them for many days. To &justice to the female part of the .passengers, they displayed a fortitude which does boomer to their sex. We arrived this day in Waterford after aisle voy age, and feel ourselves board to acknowledge the Moduli( se ?minim; attention of Captain Thomas to us during the whole , of our passage, but particularly on the trying event of the 1411; we also beg leave to oiler our warmest Set nowledgmente tolls" few braveseamen who remained with us." Yesterday a Conn of Directors was held at the East dis House, when the following ships were taken up. viz.— Princess Amelia. Marquis of Mondry, and Astell. The Active frigate sailed from Plymouth on Thnrsday with sealed orders, bre destination is generally believed to be Cadis. Our cruisereare known to keep sip a communi cation with that port. notwithstanding the blockade. The Lyra tender left Plymouth on Sunday. with a Spanish mere senger for Cadis, via Oihraltar. It is understood that by a new regulation the Masten of ships of war are in future to have the charge of the Warrant Olken' stores, with an increase to their pay for such ad. ditional responsibility. LICHTHOUSIEL—We learn that the Commissioners for Northern Lighthouses have contracted for the erection of a lighthouse on Oronsay, a small island on the western ex tremity of the island of Illay. The central. or light tower, will he shoot SO feet above the level of the sea. As the foundations are already dog, and materials in preparation, it is expected that the whole will be conorleled in the course of next tear. The benefit that will result to the shipping ii•tereste from this erection will be obvious to all those who are acquainted with the coast, and it affords an additional proof of the attention and liberality of the coininissioners. An advantage of another description is also anticipated.— The elevation will prove a mostap rfect direction to vessels wishing to visit the village of Pur nahmen, which, fro:u its situation, and from the great facilities and accommodation it affords to strangers, would he a far more convenient point of departure for those wishing to visit Staffs, leolos kin, or the Oiant's Causeway, than any other point in Argyllshire ; especially as excellent tea boats, and careful boatmen, can at all hours be found oo reaso nable terms. — (Greenock Advertiser.) ANDReW RYDING.—An account has by some means got into the London papers stating that this individual had been removed from the Castle to the Lunatic Asylum at Lancas ter. We can aunt.e the public there is no troth iu this statement. tie still remains in the Castle, and is not likely to be soon removed to a less secure place of detention. Al though acquitted by the Jory on the ground of inanity, his dere:torment is not considered of such a nature as to pre clude the fear of an attempt to escape, if a favourable op portunity should offer itself.—(Prestos Chronicls.) We suspect there is some intention of bringing Joanna Soutlicote to life again. We received some weeks ago, a pamphlet, published by a Mrs. Jane Townley. wbe talks very fluently of her " spiritual communication," and who asserts, that the affair of poor Shiloh was a spiritual and not a temporal birth ! And tt is slily insinuated. that after be was thus spiritually born, the graceless yonoester flew away to the wilderness, whence, perhaps, he might now be persuaded to return. and wage war with Priam liohenlobe! lie this as it may, Mrs. Toweley's pamphlet is a great cu riosity, and proves, very satisfactorily, that the age we lire in La awkesita so enlightened as malty people appose it to ha.—Okiepii Mirror ) --a—it. - --- . royal _Arent., staiir ase (Scala legitz), have heen 'completed some time: The Prloce'• Chamber , She Old House of.

'The new Courts of Law adjoiniog Westminster Hall are 'proceeding very rapidly. in point of convenience and ele gance they will be unequalled. They will have entrances from Palace-yard and Westminster Hall, by a passage which runs alongside Westminster Hall. from Old to New Palace yard. We understand that the office of the Board of Trade 4 and the Privy Council which adjoins the Hanle Departmeol in Whitehall will be pulled down, and larger and more capacious premises erected in their stead. J On the ground where Richmond House, the corner of Parliament -street, eight houses of the first rate are erected, built of brick, with handsome stone pillars, and a balus trade running along the top. This row of houses looks down Whitehall, towards Clearing-cross, and commands a view of the Thames back and front. The new Union Club Home, in the King's Mews, will be ready for the reception of the members in the ensuing spring. The new University Club will he ready about the same time. The College of physicians is in a state of for wardness. The new street called Pall Mall Rost will not be finished for some time, as the new Royal Stables in Pim lico most be completed before they can build on the ground in the King's Mews. All the above handsome edifices will make the neighbourhood of Charing Cross and Whitehall look quite lively. EMICIIATION.—The Montreal papers say, that emigran's from Europe continued to arrive there daily, most of them Irishmen, and whose appearance bespoke " variety of wretchedness." Within a few days three steam-hoots had conveyed from Quebec to Montreal no less than 780 of these unfortunate beings.

El/gremlin? ENTRAORDINART.—Abon? three months ago a party, consisting of eight or tea persons, left town for a village not limey miles distant from London, on a matri monial excursion. Every thing appeared 'suspicions : the morning was fine (it was the latterend of May); the friends were in high spirits at the approaching event, which was to bind together too families lung united in hoods of friend ship. The party had arrived at the last resting.place—the spire of the village church was distinguishable—the clergy. man (for aught u a know) had adjusted his canonicals, and laid his thuinA on " matrimony," when the party at the ion discovered that the bride had fled, no one knew where or.by what means, until st length the dreadful mystery was Iled by a post-hoy, who, on being questioned to that effect, said," He bad seen that there young lady a z cum'd out of the coach wi'' he (pointing to the hail. ss bridegroom), to up the road a piece wi' an add gemman a-dressed all in black clothes, and pops into a chay as %vat waiten for 'on, and hong off for Lunnun." This informa tion, so artlessly given, bore too much the stamp of truth for a doubt of its certainty to be entertained. Consterna tion seise.' on the whole perty,and after some consideration the horses' heads were turned round for London. Not the slightest trace could be found of the fair fugitive until abou t ten days ago. when a friend of her unhappy parents die covered that she had tak , .ll op her abode in one of those wretched asylums for sacertain class of unfortunate females, to which the perfidy of her heartless paramour had forced her. An application was made by her friends to the keeper of the house, who esiately restored her to a home onee 'Raptor, hut now rendered miserable by remorse and shame. Ibe venerable seducer is identified, and legal pro f-Ml*lp are.coaninenced alainst him.
