This the Admiral refused to do, and consequently they remained is confinement. The 1 Wellesley, 74 (flag ship), intended to leaps Rio in a few days, on a cruise to the northward. The surveying !hips Adventure, Capt. P. P. Kieft, and Beagle, Captain P. iltelms, had wind at Rio, I spoil rOgiand, and were to sail shortly to commence the r survey of the toasts, beginning in the Straits of Magellan, and. the Coasts and Islands of Patagonia. The Jasaeur, Captain Thomas Martin, had gone round Cape Horn, to relieve the Pleb. Orders had gone for the Cambridge, Mersey, awl Eclair, M return round Cape ' Horn. The ll'arspito, 74, Commodore Sir limes Brisbane, flew ['lndia, was appointed to take the command there.

On Wedgestirm sailed the Midas, with convicts for New South Wales e Mellish, for Madras, and several West In. diamen, which put in on Saturday litet, With contrary winds. The Russian sloops of war Moller and Seniavin, arrived this Morning horn Cronstradt, bound on a voyage to Kamschatka. This morning the Stentor transport, Lieut. Burney, arrived at Spitheed, in great distress, having been twenty-three days at sea, bound to Sierra - Leone. and obliged to put back to repair damages which she sustained in heavy gales of woad, in the flay of Biscay. The following narrative, written by an officer, describes her perilous escape from shipwreck, and the suitieings of those on board : 1 The Stentor sailed from Gravesend on the 14th September. and on the 19th passed the Land's End. On the 234 and 24th, we ex perienced a heavy gale in lat. 47. long. 13.19. when theshipeprungl a leak, causing the pumps to be at work every half hour. On the 79th, when in at. 45. 54. it came on to blow one of the severesi hurricanes that ever was experienced ; the Captain, who had messed the Atlantic thirty-six times, said he never sew the like t the sea ran considerably higher than our mainmast , and resembled ' a complete foam ; the wind was W.S.W. with the sea rolling ) hom the northward. From 1 a.m. the ship kept shipping sea after 11 sea--all hands were at pile pumps; the guns were thrown over. as well as every thing . that could be got at. Now a scene mane on which beggars description ; at twelve o'clock the man at the helm gave a signal which was too well understooth—the men rushed to the rigging, clinging to it in all parts—a sea appeared which actually darkened the space between us and the sun ; it came lifting its head, until, with one horrid rush, it swept our decks, filled the whole of the alter part of the ship with water, carried away the bulwarks and dashed into the rigging; our main topsail' was split into ten thousand atoms, and myself, who was In the back stays, bruised all over, and Captain Perry, of the Royal African corps, the commanding officer on board, so severely injured as to be obliged to be carried idto the round-house. The knees of the ship were started by the violence of the shock. Every pamenger on bean' was compelled to work at the pumps. We then attempted to put the ship before the wind, as our only chance of life, which, thank God, succeeded ; but at 6 p.m. to add to our ninety, one of the pumps choked, and the gale still continuing, nor did it at all abate until the next night, having lasted 42 home. Our perils were not yet over, as we were all obliged for our own safety to work in cessantly nt the pumps to keep her afloat, and for the lent nine days we have never had off our wet clothes, our cabin being inundated with water, and all our things destroyed. The binnacle was also I washed away, the boats stove in, and, to add to the confusion, an I alarm was spread of tire, Yet, 'midst all the dangers, the Capteinl (Mr. Marshall), and the Agent (Lieut. Burney), lost not their presence of mind, and to them our safety is grainy indebted. We are quite worn out with fatigues and sufferings. Letters from Cape Coast Castle state that the Brazen, 28, Captain George Willes, was lying there, all well, on the 16th of July, having recently captured IA Fortuna, • Portuguese schooner, With 250 slaves, 45 of whom died on the passage to Sierra Leone; and on the Pith of July she captured the Brazilian ship St- Benedict, fitted tor a cargo of 690 slaves, but with only 25 on board. Major Bowen, one of the Commissioners, on his return from the Gambia, comes home in the Braun, and was shortly to sail fee England. A beautiful brigantine, prize to the ship on a former' cruise, will return to England with her. The Ann, smuggling lugger, belonging to Flurting. with sei crew of fourteen men, fits been sent into Newcastle, ca Lured on the 28th ult. off the Yornshirc coast, by the Mermaid, lieutenant Robertson, after having thrown a valuable cargo overboard during the cbase, c onsisting of brandy, geneva, spirits, tobaceo,' tea.

The first railways, which were of wood, although much anscriot to the mode then in use, were probably inferior to the prereattrit pike loads, CeS which a bone drool about 16 cot. at an avenge. Such, however, is the pentane' so which the art has now arrived, that. as Was stated in our fondle, paper. e single horse on the sievel or slightly descending putt of the Darlington cutaway, the rfft•er being no doubt partly aiJe4 by the descent, can draw a weight of 16 tons, that is, as many tens can be &atm on the railway as ewe).

What I traps of r hbportant consequences does not this single feet involve; and as L am this can be done in other Ogees, what a wonderful field is thus opened for internal improvement. At present we arc paying, on best turnyike roads, as much as this, and more, fug tauten:, awl Mx or eight times as much for all the expenses of carriage. Coal, for example, from the vicinity of Dalkeith, eats in Edin burgh, which is only six miles distant, 45. per ton for carnets albne, which at the above rates on the railway would only amount to Bd.; and coal Imported at Leith costs 3s. ttel. pet ton for thtear riage up to Edinburgh, and as the distance is only two, or at most two and a half miles, the carriage by the railway would °nixes!: 24d. Coal also from the .Union Canal Basin costs Is. 3d. for car- Sage to the centre of the town, the distance of which is scarcely a' mile. Stone, again, for oar buildings in Edintringh; front the great quarries of Craigleith and Hailes, dipole the former two miles and the latter four from the centre of the town, 1 cost respectively 2e. 2d. and 3 s. 2 d. per „ cart, or 2s. 811. I and 3s. I Id. per ton for carriage, while by the railway it would only come to 11. and 441., and any additional charge for carrying along the streets and delivery might bring it to Ad. and 81.. Be. tween Glasgow and Edinburgh, one of out greatest thorouebfaret the carriage of such articles as are usual) , c-nveyed along that Toast costs some It.. and others millet as 31. and Gl. pet ton; the average may run about 2/., told the distance being 4 1 miles, this is-ye ti natty at the rate of Il el. per ton for each mile. Even Canstriatii. gatron conies much short of the above standard of one penny a ton p mile. On the Union Canal, for egample, costs shipped• trout `Redding Colliery, Cost at Port Hopctoun 4s. 84d, for the expases I of transport, and the distance being 2G miles. this is at the rate of i 2.1. or double the expense by the railway. But the distance by the road is only 22 miles, and by a proper railway would be no greater ; and this brings she comparative expense up very neatly to 24d. a ton per raise. On the blogkialwl Canal, again, in the neigh bourhood of Glasgow, the distance from One of the coal pits to the lifonkland basin is 104 miles, and thel expense of transport 2s, 2d., which is at the rate very nearly of 21d. per ton. Such then is the euperimity of thus new mode of erneveyence over any other that has hitherto been invented.

AGRICULTURAL IMPROVEMENTS. On Wednesday last a splendid and richly chased god cup, of the capacity of three quarts, was presented t0.,11r. Joseph Nelson, for one of the most rapid and suceeasful exertions in the cultivation of waste land, and in the plant ing of forest trees, ever known in this country. This well merited tribute of respect was given by Thomas Jolicpit Trafford, Esq. of Trafford Park, and several neighbortriii; gentlemen, and preeented b 1 Mr. Baines, of Let tls. The following is the inscription : Presented By Thomas Joseph Trafford, Esq. and others, .To Mr. Joseph As a Token of, their Approbation Of his aupenor Skill end Management and Imprsvement Of Chat Moat INC On preeenting he cup Mr. flaines said— " Mr. Nelion—l have the honour to be deputed' by Thomas .1.). sepli Trafford. Esq. and a number of ether Lencashire gentlemen friends to agricultural improvement*, to prsseat to you this pslds 4 goblet, as a mark of their respect for and their admiration of.,your talents and skill, as an agriculturist and a planter. fly the suc cessful application of those talents you have transformed a'desert into a fruitful plain. If our forefathers, much less numeraitathen ourselves; deemed him a public benefactor who raised a blade of ,grass where herbage never before grew, that honour is preemi nently dee to you. Successive generatiO.s of men have paned away, and seen in the heart of this fully peopled canny large tracts of land, locally tilted Mosses, surrendered up limos& without as effort to reclaim them. It has been your merit dlionnor the art of cultivating them with success, and to apply pies In such a way as to make this land as in; ductire,*botti get else Mang of timber and for the general products of agricultirra, tta stay land in the eeuntry. You have combined with die experi ence of age the energy of youth, and upon this marshy waste vett heye erected an imperishable monument to O . your skill and hio,- . r• To which Mr. Nelson replied— I.• " I receive, Sir,lat your hands, with the ti iisersst gratitude, :his valuable token of the approbation of the generous friends of agri cultural improvements. From my earliest days I have studied the properties and principles of vegetable life, and the experience of more than threescore years and ten has convinced me that, though much has been done within my time, much still remains to be door, to improve the cultivation of the land of this country, and particu larly of this county. The example which I have set on Chat lilozs will, I hope, be followed by others, till the name of Mess Lard shall no longer reproach the county of Lancaster. My endeavour has been unite simplicity Mid economy In all my labours with usefulnell, ip and in this I hope I have succeeded. If I hart, as you and my other friends are pleased to think, been a public bene factor, I am indebted to your confidence and support for the service I have rendered ; and I hope.both you, and the ancient and honeur able family of Trafford, will reap the reward of those labours air which you set so high a value." In order to show the value and importance of the im provements now making in this quarter, it may be pror.:r to state that Chat Moss is a tract of land consisting of up wards of 6,006 acres, adjoining the north aide of the groat road from Manchester to Liverpool, with the Mersey and lrwell navigation at the distance of shalt' a mile, and that the Manchester and Liverpool railway now forming passes over that Moss to the extent of four miles. The tutzt, which has never before been cultivated with success, is pos sessed by several proprietors, of whom Thomas Jes i eph Trafford, of Trefford Park, Faq. is the chief ; and ,the labours of Mr. Nelson, who is superintendent and Ma nager fer Mr. Baines, commenced five years ago, uvon that part of the land which was formerly occupied by William Roscoe, Esq.
