On the ftth of Augitst, at 4p. in. near the IlJuks of Newfoutat aitil, it la gait to blow hunt from the S.

We then observed a ship nit the lee how, about out: hundred yards from us. At this mo ment we broke our tiller, and carried away our rudder head, and soon after fell on board the t.eorge merchantman, of Liverpool, when we lay sotne tittle beating each other to pieces. The George's masts were carried away, and our anchor stew its her shies. In this sinking state the ship's rompaity, 16 in number, got tut board of us, iti clittlitig two children. She then dropt her stem , and its a few minutes sunk, with the nia'ster, man uud a Child. To gut the Warrior berme the wind, we cut away our iitquii-mast, and hove our curious s overboard, but it had not the desired o'- 01 ; we the n strove to throw overboard part of our guns, but were linable so to do, owing to the slap being nearly oil her broadside, and in some degree vrater-loggetl—w e then eta away our mails-mast, and grit a tiller shipped in the ward-room, when she righted, %%Inch enabled tis to throw oyes hoard twelve of our In:MI-sleek guns. At this time Cie wind chilled to the south-%te:4, and we got her before it, lint found the hisser deck ports under water and ten feet and a halt s water in the hold—all halals to the pumps, when we soma gained on her. At this time the gale, which had lasted for seven hours, began to moderate, and by two o'clock a. in. on the 10th tie had nearly freed the whole from water. Our bell-rooms, powder Hiss cazim.s, provision-rooms, and almost every other place in the interior of the ship got tilled with water thiriog the gale, which nearly destroyed every thing thereto,. About forty sail of the consoy, we tinder stand, ore dismastetl, tool several foundered during the gale. We have spoken slaps having on board the crews of live others."

DEPORT FROM THE HOUSE OF COMMOVE _ THE STATE OF MENDICITY IN TIIC SIETROPO (Continued from our Paper of Voiterday.) The Ret•. Win. Gurney'• Examinution continued. Did they appear to be tier ou:: I believe they were her own—there was it family likeness. !late you ►ten that woinan lately ?—I now and then see kr, perhaps once in a mouth or siN week-; she gets in debt here and there. and is obliged to inner about; slie has been down in Kent-street. Itite you lately seen her beggiug fre quently, and the children, they we the great Ibrguara. I thought if we could have got the children front her, we could have proenred their admission into a school, and numbers of my friends would here subscribed to support the children decently, and that aright probably have led to great good. As to the w an, I have several friends who would have roman' her woak to do, common plain needle-work, if she had been ih cloned to be industrious ; but when 1 futon' the gin-shop was her resort, I gave it up, being convinced that nothing could lie door with her but by main force. While they get halfpence and pence, the money goes to the giuo.hop; if they get a sloilizig or eighteen-pence, it goes to the butcher's. Ties woman is, perhaps, only one of tidy a hoot I have met with of that particular class. I have hound among the mendicants that have twi n . eipally tormented we, and as to whom I hate re itentl y grieved that I could not relieve them wheal I have seen they were distressed ; they have principally been women ; and the general account they gave of themselves is, either that they are sea men's wives, or have been deserted by their hus bands, or the wives of poor manufacturers oho have hail no employment ; I mean such as shoemakers, tool artizsais who get their brew' when there is a pretty brisk fiial'', dissolve, probably m gin, what little money they have gut; and then, per haps, when they come to be in debt, they would work, but call get no employment. They seem to know every thing which passes in one's mind almost about beggars: finding I would not see them at my house, they .used to waylay me ; they Itate waited at the top of the street in which I lire; they have drawn hack when I hate come out at my door; they have given one time to come out of my own sheet ; and as soon as I got out, if I turned towards the church, they knew they should have me there ; and they have been us• d to conie in and tell their complaints, not to gether, but one at a tune ; they have assured ire that they rend)• were starving. When I fous.d tovy a ere bosh, which I have io litany instunete, knew there WAS no use there to the ()terser rs, for that they always sent them away; they used really to &tee we : But I come to a tle termwation that I would not relieve any of them, unless I first or all sent a person to examine at the place where they said they lodged, whether they really were lodging there, and how they behaved themselves, mod w holier they ever tame home drunk; and when they found that, they okays used to ? come and lodge in St. Clement'si.lane, in my palish. There are some houses in that lane, with ...rely room in the house occupied by these people, with some of thew three or lour children. There are inuily houses in that lane which are full from t p to bottom with persons of that description, who go about begging in various a aye. There are seine of the most extraordinary methods used by these people, in order to obtain money, that can he conceived of; and they are so numerous, that I baldly know which to point out. Sonic of them have u t ertain sum to raise, then they come with something written; but when they want to get a little money immediately, they have a sou who has been on board ship six or seven years, and they find there is a letter lying for them, but they commit raise money to pay the postage ; and they expect, perlhips, a remittance from this sou; this I have had fifty tunes over ; others will mention a right to prize-money, but that they cannot, without some recommendation, get information. Did you' ever send those persons to get informa tion ?—Yes, many times ; but their oliji et was to get a letter with any name to it, with which pro bably in a short time they could get 201. If I have written to any body in the office of the Toaisiner of the Navy, whom I knew fur instruction or coun sel how they ought to act, reemumendiug the bearer to this person for any information he could give upon such poiuts ; if I only said, I beg leave to recommend the bearer to your notice, they would paste this upon another sheet of paper, cutting off the bottom part (and one person was detected iu doing this) and then they would take the name at the bottom, and so paste it together, making a km d of a reconnueodation of this person : knowing oho 1 oas acquano.d with, sonic other clevgymaii. per haps setting, rue down as giving them ICU btlik1110; that clergyman is induced to give than ten shit hues also, mod to send them to sonic henev u l en t person in his congregation; and so they go on tilt they have got twenty pounds: a n d that has fre quently been done, I do not mean always by im position.
