For near a week past we have had very squally weather, attended by a r_markably high tide, which is a very uncommon circumstance at this time of the year. Yesterday afternoon a Marga.e packet was brought into this bay by one of our yawls, called the ildice. She had been driving about the whole of the preceding night at the mercy of the winds and waves, her mast having broke at an early hour in the evenin:s,. The r ds4en g ers were all brought on shore. You may readily con ceive their situation, especially the fentsle part, Some of whom were most seriously ill from their fright, which was not a little aggravated by the following distressing circumstance fine little b,y, abeut seven years old, WAS leaning on -the quarter rail, when the mat broke, and falling oa his arm, shivered it to pieces. No surgical aid WAS On board to ameliorate his stifferingi, and wrortiricatien has taken place ; he now lies at , Kitehener'e publweisouse, and I understand there are little hopes entertained of his recovery. After takipg refre 7ats here, :A the passengers,. ladies as well as gentl-men, ventured on board the ye.: I (that went to neir assistance, and brought them in here) for London, where I hope they have arrived safe. Tbe Committee of Spanish Merchants waited, on Tuesday, upon the Spanish Ambassador, to ascertain, as tar as could be consistent with propritty, his Excellency's sentiments on the ins pending &lager ; and .parecularly to request, diet he would favour them web .•n assoranee, that ships laded with Ar. in from this country for Spain woui 1 be protetf•A in the same manner a; thc,e loaded with wool from Spain were by our cruis. even in time of war ? The conduft of his Excellency evidently proved, that he not only wished to avoid say answer at Bair: time to questions of a public let tere, but that he was fearful of saying any taing which might commit his authority, or implicate precipitately in any degree the intereos of the two conotries. His Excellency, however, went so fir as to say, that to start a doubt on the sub joa would be to suppose, that the Spanish Go vernment were about to ac on a system dia metrically opposite Or that principle which had hi therto governed their intercours • with Great Britain. The Merchants urged the propriety of assurances from the Ambassador, in his official capacity, that no sequestration of property would take place, so far as regarded vessels laden with grain, for the supply of Spain, and that such vessels would expe rience the same proteetion as those now experienced that brought wool from .pain to this country. His Excellency still waved any direCt answer or ai• surance ; but when the Merchants said, that such instruCtrons respeaing the wool ships had been i,sued and santlionea by the British Govern ment, and 'hat they could produce such a paper fo• the satisfaction of his Excellency, if he pleased; the Ambassador at last observed, that if they would f.‘your him with a copy of the docu ment ,inw des tilled, he would rake the particular case wineli they re v resented into consideration.— Wednesday, the 9th and 10th Loyal London Vo lunteers had 2 brigade :!_ty. They marched from their g: oSiads i . the city, about three o'clock, and proceeded to the fields near Hackney, where they performed the review maneeuvras, to the admiration of every one. 'fie thing was, in general, excellent ; and we never knew independent firing so well kept 1;1. Both regiments were highly complimented on their steadiness and discipline. Yesterday se'nnight, the annual dinner of the Cone:wry of the Trades of Eshoburgh took place in the great hall of the King's Arms "Tavern. An elegant dinner was served op in Bar crtt. p's beg snit', and the wines, itc. were excellent of their lunds. Among many other persons of distinftion, wh honoured the trades with their company to dinner, were his Excellency the Earl of Mots Lieut.

" We sailed from the Downs the 19th of August, and got off the French coast the lame day, but no thing material Iran:rued until the 24th, when the flotilla came out into the roads, to the number of 60 brigs, and 48 loggers. with several other small .craft, and moored in a line. On the 25th, we had an engagement with eight loggers under the forts of Ambreteuse and Vimeroux, but luckily Sustained no damage. On the 26th, we stood in shore in the forenoon, and were heavily fired at by the forts and flotilla ; and in the afternoon of the same dap, 14 brigs and nine loggers were s en standing for Vi mereux : we immediately crowded all sail after them, being joined by the Harr y sloop of war, Constitution cutter, and two gun-brigs, which force the Moretteur has magnified into a frigate of 44 guns, a ship of 24, and two brigs of 18. We were fortunate enough to get within point blank shot of them, which put them into great cool union ; but they were soon as sisted by another floti:la, which, seeing their situation, came to their support ; hut from the nearness of our position, and the time we were engaged, we have reason to think the slaughter of the crew must have been very grew, as we kept a constant fire upon them for three hours, and perfealy drove them be fore us. 'fhe damage we sustained was trifling. We had four marines wounded slightly, and a spar car tied away. The cutter was unfortunately sunk by a shell, but the whole crew were saved. The Heppe had one man killed. On the Zth, we bad another salon of Pollee. with the left wing of the enemy's flotilla s and drove them back with a heavy loss of men, and their vessels much hulled. On the 30th, the wind shifting, we stood over for our own coast, but returned back for Boulogne again on the 91st, and found in the outer roads 45 brigs, and several loggers, which all went i nto t h e inner harbour on the 2.J. On the 6th we perceived 44 brigs and :7.0 loggers corn-ng round Cape Grisatea from Ostend, together with a prams of twenty 34-pounders: we immedi ately weighed and stood for them, and fell in with them between Ambleteuse and Vimerenx, but the moment we began our fire the wind failed us, C..d we were unfortunately becalmed under the fire of their batteries, from which we had one man killed, one lost his leg, and another part of his shoulder, and had they been expert gunners we must have suffered much more. On the WI they greatly en creased their number of vessels in the outer roads ; and on the 12th, 4 brigs let Boulogne for Calais: we made sail after, but could not get within shot of them. On the 13th most of the ir brigs and tuggers were manoeuvring : we stood towards :hem, and re ceived a most tremendous fire from their batteries, when several shot passed through our sails. On the 18th we made another attack upon them, and got close in with their Admiral, to whom we gave two bioadsides with round and grape, and did them con siderable damage; as they were returning to the harbour if Boulogne and Vimereux, we were so , close in with them, and so many of the shells of their batteries burst over us, that we were obliged, tor the safety of the men, to send them from the tipper &tern on the main deck, as we were more exiii.si d in this anion to their batteries than in any usher r since the war began; the wind changing, we sailed fat the Downs. leaving the flotilla in the oiat,r ; ter as the equinoxial gales are begun, they must by this time have made for their harbours." SCO7 LAND, CIRCUIT INTELLIGENCE. MIMI ART, SEPT. 21. The Circuit Court of Justiciary was openel at th's place upon Monday the 17th curt. by the Right Hon. Lord Cut. Len. The first case that came lverore the Court was an indittment against yeiia Fie, Archibald RA IMSOV. drebibald lti.Deagal, Radii-Kb Show,Catheriste Camp bell, Anne Campbell, and Ale:ander M.Kreneh, or Darroch. accused of committing depredations upon the cargo of a vessel from the Vi est Indies, that Was wrecked lately amongst the small isles of Jura, and likewise for assaulting the master of the vessel. Archibald APDongal, Roak rich Sim, Catharine Camp bell, and .4 , irse Campbell, were outlawed for not ap pearing, and the trial proceeded as to the other three. The evidence was summed up on the part of the Crown. by Mr. D•vto Bo v Ls, Advocate-de pute, and on the part of the pannels, by Mr. Rosser CA Yuma.. Advocate ; and Lord Cutter m j having charged uury, they were inclosed at eight o'clock in the evening. Next morning a verdia was returned, finding the libel not proven against Archi bald Ramsay, Alexander M•Krecch, or &reach, nor against Jahn 211Tre s the other pannel, so far as re garded his abstritaing any part of the cargo ; but boding it proven, that he behaved in a eery im proper manner to the master of the vessel, when endeavouring to protect the property of his owners. The Court found, that the verdsfl was conceived in such terms, respeifting 31 , Fee, as not to find the pannel guilty of any of the crimes charged in the libel, and that therefore tn. punishment could follow upon it. The whole three were therefore assoilzied roa#ttiter, and dismissed from the bar. The Court neat proceeded to the trial of DM ,, ran Mee 4rther, Lin pf Niel Mac Arthur, residing at Dail, in die p.irish of Louth, Knaptoil, and county of Argyll. who was accused of the murder of Eli zabeth Mac Kinnon, his wife, in the month of Oc tober last. The dead body had been found in the morning after the murder, lying on the banks of the Crinan Ca:•al, with the feet in the canal ; and it was supposed the murder had been perpetrated by 'trim :in amyl on the evviiing preceding, as the deceased WAS an her way to the village of Lochgalphead, ac companied by her husband. After a very long trial, the evidence on the part of the Crown was summed up by the Anew:Aso De n:Vs ; and by Mr. JAMES L'Astv, Advocate on we par: et the panne' ; ft* Jur / w-re charged by Lord Cut.r.rie, and 7 nc! , ...,1 At .• • .*4.l•lck in the morning, and at ten 0%1..1: j • te,r:ay returned a verdiet, all in one voice p.i:in:lljgasity of tits war/sr ; where upon L. w.. ..-.I to be tied npaf bread and eraser o:.&y, an .

I tent the following letter to the Editor of that Paper, on the 14th inst. On the 18th of this month, rso notice having been taketi of the letter. L sent a note to the Editor, stating; that such a letter bad been transmitted to him, and re questing that it might he acknowledged in his notice • 'to Cot respondents. The note, like the letter, has . to this day been totally disregarded. I therefore find it necessary to putsue some oth.r coUrse, order to repel the charge; no other cours-t seems so proper as the publication of the letter it self, wits a statem-rat pf the fa.l of its being fruit lessly sent to the Edi tor o f ric Mdriiing Cioniefr.

I refrain, Sir, fiom noticing a variety of other misrepresentations of the Society, generally 'steam. pitied with abuse; trusting that what 1 now ser.d will be sufficient to put the public on their r uirct; and to induce them rather to judge of the Society by its pewee/hey', which are published in its reports,,t than by the unsupported charges, which are iesidhl onsly advanced against it by those who are hostile to the institution.
