On the morning of the 25th, before daylight, Midship man Wingate Pilsbury, of Maine, and Michael Flinn, seaman, both of the steamer Mississippi, were drowned by the upsetting of the launch of that vessel. Neither of the bodies has been recovered. A town in the neighbourhood of Jalapa had pro nounced against the Government of Paredes, and in fa vour of Santa Anna and Federalism. One of the chiefs was the Secretary of Legation to Almonte, when Minis ter to France. The principal chief, Jose Arrillago, is a particular friend of Santa Anna, and said to be a man of energy and ability. At first the movement was con sidered of little importance; but it has since increased in consequence, and from present appearances there is reason to believe it will beeome general throughout the department of Vera Cruz. Intelligence had also been received at Vera Cruz as late as the 21st from Mexico, of some importance. The Government troops sent to quell the insurrection in Ja lisco have been totally defeated at Guadalajara by the pronunciados, and their commander (General Arevallo) killed. The departments of Queretaro and Zacetecas have pronounced against the Government, but not, as is supposed, in connexion with Santa Anna. Except with a portion of the army, it is said that this gentleman is not popular in the country. The Fede ralists have no confidence in his present professions; and without their aid, it is believed, he could not sustain himself at the head of the Government for any length of time, even if his friends could succeed in having him recalled. It is difficult to conjecture what effect these events may have on our relations with Mexico. Should they lead to a change of Government—which is not impro bable—the party coming into power will likely offer proposals of peace, as we learn from a source deserving of credit, that such is the desire of many of the most influential men in Mexico. A close blockade of the coast, however, and a vigorous prosecution of the war, seem the most obvious means of bringing them to terms. On the 21st of July Congress passed a law granting commissions to privateers. Alvarado, Zecoluta, Zas- pam, and Sote Ira Marina have been declared ports ol entry. These ports will be included among those al ready blockaded. General Bravo declined acting as President of the re public on his arrival at Mexico. Congress, however, refused his resignation, and he has since accepted the appointment. General Paredes was to have left Mexico on the 27th for the northern frontier. It is generally suppused he will not take that direction. It is said that some regiments, amounting in all to fourteen hundred men, have marched from the city. It is believed that they were intended to reinforce General Arevallo at Guadalajara. . _ _ " United States ship Cumberland, " Off Vera Cruz, July 30, 1846. " Sir,—Shortly after closing my letter of the 28th ju t taut, the Cumberland, Potomac, and two of the sch ooners, sailed from Green Island for the purpose of attacking the enemy's vessels in the river of Al varado. In passing through the channel leading t o the roads of Antonio Lizardo, I regret to inform you this ship, owing to a strong current, ran on the north-west part of a coral reef, called the Chopas, in three fathoms water. This was about half-past four o'clock - in the afternoon of the 28th. After great exer tions, end lightening her more than a fbot by pumping off the t vater, removing the provisions and shot to the other vet tsels, and depositing most of the spar deck guns on a show 1 part of the reef near the vessel (whence they can be e ssily removed), with the assistance of the Mississippi, she was finally extricated from her perilous position at about eight o'clock, P.M., on the 29th, after grinding in .the coral reef for upwards of twenty-seven hours. " With the exception of her false keel, of which small crushed fra&ments rose to the surface of the water alongside, this ship does not appear to have su st a i ne d an y material injury, as she makes no more water than usual. It is reasonable to infer, however, that much of the cop per on the bottom has been rubbed off. " It affords the great satisfaction to add that the offi cers and men of the Cumberland performed their inces sant labour with untiring zeal and assiduity ; and my acknowledgments are due to Captain Fitzhugh, his officers and men, for the very efficient aid rendered by the Mississippi, whose services were of the greatest im portance ; and to Lieutenant Le Roy and the men of the Potomac, who shared our labours. I am, very respect fully, your obedient servant, " D. CONNER, " Commanding Home Squadron. " lion. George Bancroft, Secretary of the Navy." Fnors MExlco.—The New Orleans papers of the 18th, are filled with the Mexican intelligence which reached this city several days since from Mexico. We annex the following paragraphs which contain information of interest and importaace:— The Bills before Congress which we published some woeks since--one conferring on the Government the control over the revenues for the purposes of the war, and the other declaring the existence of war, and that Me Kico will repel it—were passed by Congress in nearly the sa me form in which they were originally reported. Congress had passed another law to which great im porta u, •e was attached, conferring upon General Paredes the in d.'mited power to appoint officers and procure the necessaiy materials for the w ar, giving the prefer, nce to those t.tf Mexico. We have not seen the law itself; but have :. , econd-hand notice of it, which is not very de Pared.n had determined to release all prisoners con fined for political offences. Tne news received in the city of Mexico from the frontier wt 4 such as to drive the Government alm( st to despair. Ott the :17th July a courier arrived, announcing the departure of eight thousand American troops from Camargo fir Monterey. General Armijo, about the .same time, sent word that six thousand Americans had come down upon New Mexico. And to crown the whole, :a dispatch was received from the British Minister at - W as hi ng ton, which quenched every hope of receiving said from England. Genera! Mejia, who had taken the command of the zermy which followed Arista to Linares, bad established ibis head-quarters at Monterey. General Paredes was to tifrect his march thither, for which purpose he was to wive the city of *Mexico on the 31st of July, making a ritetour, however, to look after the city of Gaudalajara. 'The last brigade composing the division to be under the President's command left the capital on the 28th of July. Mali; • Jaw , departments this side the Sierra Madre from the Cen tral Government there is not a question. To patch out the new Republic it is probable that he was desirous of holding all the country this side the Nueces, and was equally desirous that the American force should not ad vance a step farther in the direction of the Rio Grande. He knew too that the Government of Mexico would op pose, to the utmost of its abilities, the progress of the American arms, would throw a large force into Mate mores, and that thus the expectations of the revolu tionists, of a speedy release from central bondage, would be retarded or completely frustrated. Whatever Carvajal might have thought, or whatever he might have advised, General Taylor was ordered to take up ground opposite Matamoras, and marched his army from Corpus Christi with that intention. When Canales and Carvajal saw the immense preparation made to oppose him, and saw that Arista had taken the com mand a,,,crainst the Americans, they, too, joined the army with a large body of rancheros. They could not well do otherwise, with all their talk of a separation from the Central power and their great hatred of Centraltyranny, for the success of the Mexican army was looked upon as certain; and where would they have been with the American prisoners in Matamoras and they standing . aloof and taking no hand in the matter? The result of the grand battles of Palo Alto and Resaca de la Palma, tke occupation of Matamoras by General Taylor, the flight of Arista with the remnant of his army, and the dispersing the rancheros, are matters well known, and it now remains to be seen what scheme, if any, the re volutionary leaders will next hit upon. Carvajal is very sore upon the subject of the defeat of all his hopes, and blames the American Government for treating his propositions with silent contempt. His family is now in this place, but he himself, although within a few hours' ride, does not feel disposed, either from fear of personal h arm or a d es i re no t t o comm it himself with his countrymen, to come in. Whatever may be his motives or designs, he has the reputation with the Americans as well as the Mexicans of being a brave and intelligent man, and more honest even than many of his neighbours. I might give you the rumours of the whereabouts of Canales, of Seguin, of Antonia Perex, and of some of the other partisan officers, but it would all amount to mere speculation. Gillespie's company has just come in from Mier. The Captain reports that Canales left that place a short time previous to his arrival. He had but a small force, and went off, as was supposed, in the direction of Monterey. I do not believe he is far off, Antonio Perez went through Loredo a few days since with a large cavalluda of horses and mules.—New Orleans Picayune, 11th. FROM THE SEAT OF %VAR.—We find the following letter in the National Intelligencer, which paper copies from the Baltimore Argus, to whom it was furnished by an officer of the army, who endorses its contents. It places a very different aspect upon the affairs on the Rio Grande, and advances statements as to the Mexican force which we think are much exaggerated. The last arrival from Mexico direct brought information that Paredes was expected to concentrate 10,000 men at St. Luis Potosi, but even that was exceedingly doubtful, from the very fact that great boast was made of having raised, armed, and equipped two brigades of troops at Mexico, consisting of 1,200 men:— " Camargo (Mexico), July 31, 1846. " Information that I rely upon is, that General Mejia, with the remnant of Arista's army, 4,000 strong, is at Cadereita, a town thirty miles east of Monterey. This town has a garrison of near 1,000 men (regulars), a po pulation of 15,000. General Paredes was at San Luis de Potosi on the 15th instant, on his way to Monterey, with 8,000 regular troops ; he has also called on Nueva Leon for 8,000 active militia ; from this department of Tamaulipas he expects 3,000 more making his entire force, when he reaches Monterey on the 15th or 20th proximo, near 25,000 men. General Taylor is straining every nerve to get there before him, but cannot now possibly do so until the sth or 10th September ; so Pa redes has the advantage of numbers, and of naturally a strong rocky position. Paredes will have forty pieces of cannon—we will have about twenty-four; and you may expect (as our army will not be over 10,000) to hear of the most obstinate fight and bloodiest doings ever done up in America or in the world about the 15th of Sep tember. With us it will be neck or nothing—the former, something to eat and houses to live in, perhaps peace ; the latter, death and a continuation of the war. Such is our prospect." FROM THE HOME SQUADRON.—Letters from Commo dore Conner, of as late date as the 30th July, have been received at the Navy Department. The crews of the different ships of the squadron continue healthy, with the exception of a case or two of scurvy. The Porpoise arrived at Vera Cruz on the 18th July. The Peterel reached that port on the 21st, after a passage of 28 days from New York; and the Bonito arrived on the 28th. It was 2,000 strong, and had several pieces of artillery. This brigade, like those which left the capital before it, was perfectly equipped. All these troops, with two or three thousand expected from Guadalajara, united to those under Mejia, it was thought would give Paredes a force at Monterey of from 12,000 to 15,000 men. His long delay in the capital is attributed to his solicitude that his army should be equipped and provided in every particular. In the city of Mexico there were, at last accounts, but 1,200 troops, and there was some intention of raising a volunteer force. Fnot MONTE VmEo.—We received yesterday, by the barque Mason Barney, Captain Scott, Buenos Ayres papers to July Ist. The papers of June 13 give details of the engagement between the Parana expedition and the forts thrown up to oppose the progress of the boats. The convoy is said to have consisted of 95 merchant men, with twelve ships of war, mounting in all eighty five guns. The opposing force, besides three pieces of artillery on an island in front of the position, consisted of seventeen pieces of flying artillery and 500 infantry. The account proceeds : " The enemy commenced a tremendous fire upon our positions, with the view of protecting the convoy. We returned it in a spirited manner, not losing sight of the merchantmen, whose cupidity had led them into the scrape. "At half-past meridian, a British barque, of about 250 tons burden (supposed to be the Holywood or the Cale donia), and three schooners, one of them pilot-boat rigged, under Correntino colours, in their endeavour to avoid our fire, got aground on a bank near an island on the opposite coast. Five of the enemy's largest steamers proceeded to their assistance, but finding our fife too hot for them, they relinquished the undertaking, and fled at full speed. Subsequently the Lizard was sent on the same errand, but had it not been for the timely aid of two large steamers which returned to protect her, she would inevitably have been destroyed. " At two P.M. the firing entirely ceased, the enemy having set fire to and abandoned the vessels aground. The latter were soon consumed, with the exception of the pilot-boat rigged schooner, laden with hides, yerba, and tobacco, which was rescued from the flames by four boats dispatched by us from the shore. The greater part of the merchantmen threw their deck loads overboard, in order to avoid grounding, and we could see tercios of yerba and petacoes of to bacco consigned to the water, intermingled with the bodies of the killed. I believe 32 of the latter have been counted. Both the vessels of war and merchantmen were completely riddled with our shot. It will take them some time to repair before they can proceed on their voyage. Our 17 pieces have fired 1,360 shots, grape and round, and our infantry 20,000. The enemy must hare fired at least 2,500 shots and 200 congreve rockets. The only casualties we have to lament are one infantry soldier killed, Lieutenant-Colonel Thorne and four soldiers wounded, the former slightly in the left shoulder." A letter from Buenos Ayres announces the de parture of Mr. Graham, United States Consul, and a son of Mr. Brent, the Charge d'Affaires for Corrientes and Paraguay. An excursion was recently made into the department of the north, to chastise the predatory Indians. The result was that upwards of 60 fightin g Indians, including two Caciques, have been killed, and 5 taken prisoners ; 900 sheep, 209 head of cattle, 160 mares, and 470 horses, as also large deposits of Indian corn, pumpkins, and other provisions, falling, besides, into the hands of the victors. BUENOS AYRES, JUNE 20.—According to news from Entrerios, the Correntino Envoy to Paraguay has been successful in his mission, President Lopez having agreed to cancel all the treaties that had been formed between the two provinces, in prejudice to the Confederation. The Paraguay army had withdrawn to its own territory. The sloop Fortuna, of the convoy from Corrientos, got aground and bilged on the 14th inst., between Co lonies and Las Paris. The British barque burnt up the Parana was the Caledonia. She had 17,000 hides on board. FROM MONTE VlDEO.—Captain Scott, of the barque Mason Barney, from Monte Video, which place he left on the 3d of July, informs us, that about a week previous to his sailing the British had embarked a part of the 45th regiment that was at that place, for the Cape of Good Hope, leaving behind the 73d regiment. The U. S. ship Plymouth was lying at Monte Video—the boats of which ship were kindly sent to the assistance of Captain Scott, to enable him to get out of the harbour. The U. S. brig Bainbridge sailed on the 23d of June for Buenos Ayres, having on board Mr. Harris, the U. S. Charge d'Affaires. VERA Cauz.—The Boston Journal furnishes the fol lowing translation of the declaration made by the garri son of Vera Cruz against the Mexican Government and in favour of Santa Anna : At a meeting of the General-in-Chief and officers of the Bth Regiment quartered in the heroic city of Vera Cruz, to take into consideration the calamitous state to which the Republic has arrived, and to seek the most immediate remedy to place it in a career of pros perity, &c., It was resolved to adopt the plan of the 20th of May, pronounced by the military garrison at Guadalaxara, with the following amendments:- 1. All those who may have been banished for politi cal opinions since the year 1821, are invited to return to the Republic and co-operate in the present movement. 2. By this the circumstances of the war with the United States are to be considered as in nowise changed; but it is for the Congress which will assemble to deter mine relative thereto, and for the Mexicans to obey their resolutions. 3. A general invitation is proffered to all those in this department who may have taken up arms against the existing order of government, to unite in this plan, which has for its object the public weal alone. 4. As his Excellency General Antonio Lopez Santa Anna had the glory to establish the republic, whatever may have been his errors, he was a firm supporter of public liberty and national honour—for this we proclaim him leader of this great enterprise. Signed by the officers generally, FROM RIO DE JANElRO.—Captain Williams, Of the barque Brazilerio, at this port from Rio de Janeiro, whence she sailed July 16, reports that the arrival of the barque Amelia Mulholland, with the news of the war with Mexico, created great sensation; freights for Ame rican vessels are almost impossible to be obtained. Com mander Rosseau, of the Columbia, expecting the corvette Plymouth and the brig Bainbridge, from the river, daily, has notified American ship-masters that they will convoy any vessels home that may put themselves under their protection. __ Am . erican credits are in disrepute and cannot be passed, except at considerable advance. ... The Brazilian Government are sending troops in some numbers to the province of Rio Grande, it is supposed in consequence of anticipated troubl e w ith Buenos Ayres. From the river there is no news of any particular mo ment. NEW YORK MONEY MARKET, AuG. 31. MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS. SALES AT STOCK EXCHANGE. 2,560 Ohio 6's, '6O 3,000 U. S. 6's, '62 1,000 111.

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER l5, 1846 extent of the demands of the Irish people in refesenee to political franchises, and to national institutions ; but I greatly fear that your Government are not yet fully alive to the dangers connected with the imminent ap proach of impending famine. However reluctant, there fore, I may be, under present circumstances, to obtrude my opinions either upon your Lordship or upon the public, I yet feel that the duty which I owe to those whom I represent requires me to do all in my power to awaken attention to the appalling nature of the difficul ties by which we are at present surrounded, and to the necessity of making immediate and effectual provision for the future sustenance of the population of Ireland.— I have the honour to be, my Lord, your obedient servant, WILLIAM S. O'BRIEN. Cahirmoyle, Sept. 9, 1846. NEW YORK MARKETS. Cotton—The sales on Saturday were 2,000 bales, at full prices. This morning there is a good demand. Holders are gradually withdrawing their stock from market, awaiting further accounts from abroad, as also from the south, in reference to the prospects of the crop. A.hes—The sales are animated, and the market with out change. Flour--There is a moderate demand for western, and a little more firmness in the market. Southern is dull. FALLING OF A RAILWAY TUNNEL.—FOUR LIVES LOST.—A most fearful accident, involving the loss of tour lives, happened on Saturday evening, by the f a lli ng of a portion of the Mary tunnel, now in course of con struction near .Ashburton, for the South Devon Rail way. During the day a part of the frame-work on which the arch had been built was removed, and the brick work beiug supposed to be perfectly sound, the labourers were directed to displace other portions. The poor fel lows were so engaged all the evening, when at about ten o'clock a heavy crack was heard, and more than fifty yards of th e arc h f e ll i n , b ury i ng man y o f the miners and labourers. With sundry bruises all escaped, with the exception of four poor creatures, named Henry Big wood, William Parnell, John Polhill, and John Setcher. Immediately on their being missed active measures were taken to remove the soil, and in the course of three or tour hours they were recovered. Their bodies presented a . shocking sight. Notwith s t an di ng t h e i r appalling in juries, the unfortunate men were foand to be alive; they survived but a few minutes. At the Coroner's inquest the verdict was " Accidental death." CHURCH. EXTENSION.—A new church is in course 4' erection opposite Vaughan-terra e, Iloxton. It is a spaeiolls and elegant structure, and is expected to be ready for consecration before the close of the present year. The vicarage of St. Bride's, Fleet-street, vacant by the promotion of the Rev. Thomas Dale to the vicarage of St. Pancras, has not yet been tilled up. The nomina tion rests with the Dean and Chapter of Westminster. A prebendal stall in St. Paul's Cathedral, also vacant by Mr. Dale's promotion, still remains to be filled up. It is in the gift of the Bishop of London. NEW WELSH Cuustait.—A. new Welsh church on congregational principles, was on Sunday opened in Aldersgate-street, contiguous to' the General Post-office. The Rev. D. Morgan, of Llanfy lien, conducted the ser vices, and will continue to officiate during the present month. No permanent ministe r will be appointed, as it is intended that the services sh: all be performed for the ' , resent by clergymen of the W plsh church by turns. LETTER FROM SMITH O'BRIEN, M.P., TO THE RIGHT HON. LORD JOHN RUSSELL. My Lord,—Before three months shall have elapsed, several millions of the population of this kingdom will, by the failure of the potato crop, be left destitute of the supply of provisions which, under ordinary circum • stances, would have sustained them until the autumn of next year. In many districts the people are now living upon dis eased potatoes, unfit for human food, and within a few weeks will be deprived of even this wretched sustenance. How is famine to be averted ? How is order to be preserved ? Has the Legislature enacted laws suited for the emergency ? Have the Government made arrange ments adequate to the crisis ? These are questions which absord the attention of the most indifferent—which appal the hearts of the most courageous. Never more than at the present moment has Ireland had reason to deplore the loss of its legislature—an Irish Parliament convened in Dublin, under the advice of an Irish Ministry, would deliberate with an earnest ness of purpose, and act with a vigour which we cannot reasonably expect to find in any other than a native Legislature. Let us not, however, be unjust. Although the late Government were somewhat tardy in their preliminary arrangements, and thereby gave occasion to a less profit able expenditure than would have resulted from more timely precautions, yet Ireland gratefully acknowledges that neither Sir Robert Peel nor the British Parliament can be justly charged with insensibility to the scarcity of last year, or with want of liberality in providing the means of alleviating it. You, my Lord, have to encounter a calamity of far more awful magnitude. The failure of the potato crop, which last year was partial, is now universal. The scarcity which last season commenced in the month of May, will, during the present year, overtake us in Oc tober. I should not trouble your Lordship with this present appeal, if I could persuade myself that your Government have provided resources sufficient to guarantee us against suffering of the most aggravated kind, accompanied by a general convulsion of society. Parliament being dispersed, we have nothing to ex pect from legislation beyond the enactments which were placed upon the statute-book at the close of last session. An Act has passed authorising the Government to apply 50,0001., by way of grant, in aid of public works. This appears to be the only direct contribution on the part of the State, authorised by Parliament to be applied as a subsidy in mitigation of the calamity which has be fallen us. English statesmen frequently speak of pay ments from the Imperial Exchequer, as if England alone contributed to the public revenue ; and we are told that it is unreasonable that the people of England should be taxed for the relief of Irish distress. Nothing is more abhorrent to our feelings than the sentiment of depend ence upon England. Give to us the management of our own revenue, the care of our own resources, the protec tion of our own people, and we shall gladly relieve the Parliament of England from the duty of providing for our necessities ; but until such restitution shall be made, we are under no obligation to forego our claims upon the revenue which is drawn from the Irish nation. The means of subsistence and employment destroyed by the failure of the potato crop cannot be valued at less than 10,000,000/. sterling. We may fairly question whether, under similar circumstances, an Irish Parliament, though unassisted by the Exchequer of England, would deem a sum of 60,0001. an adequate contribution on the part of the State towards the employment of the poor in useful and reproductive works. If we understand rightly the meaning of the Treasury minute dated the 31st of August, 1846, we have reason to complain that the present Government have com menced their operations by a gross breach of faith. In dividuals and public bodies were induced by the late ad ministration to commence public works, upon an agree ment that a moiety of the expense of such works should be contributed by the state. By this Treasury minute we learn that, in violation of these agreements, the Go vernment now propose to withhold such portions of the moiety granted on the part of the state as remains unex pended, and to compel the contracting parties either to leave their works unfinished, or to complete them at their own sole expense. To such a proceeding I can remember no parallel in the financial operations of modern times. The only effective measure upon which we can place reliance for the relief of the famishing poor is 9 and 10 Vic., c. 107, "An Act to facilitate the employment of the labouring poor, for a limited period, in the distressed districts of Ireland." Under this Act the presentment sessions of each barony ( a body which very imperfectly represents the rate-payers, as it is not elected by them) is empowered, with the sanction of the Government, to present an unlimited amount of money for the execution of public works. The amount so presented is to be levied by a tax similar to the poor rate, payable partly by tenants and partly by landlords. Now, these are precisely the two classes of society which will suffer most severely from the failure of the potato crop. As for the holders of small farms, their condition will be such, that, instead of being subjected to taxa tion they ought rather to be considered as objects of re lief. Many who will be liable to this assessment would be happy to obtain emplyment as labourers on the public works. The occupiers of large farms will suffer less severely; but it is to be remembered they will have lost nearly the whole of that article of subsistence upon which not only their families and servants were chiefly dependent, but which also afforded food to their horses, cattle, pigs, and fowls. This class, therefore, has never been less able to bear taxation than during the present year. With reference to the landlords of Ireland, it is to be observed that there are very few estates which are not subject to heavy incumbrances of every description, so that the owners seldom enjoy more than a portion of the rental which they ostensibly receive. The full amount of their rental is, however, the basis upon which the tax will be levied. During the present year few land lords will be able to realise the full amount of their rents. At the same time, those who reside in Ireland will be naturally expected to give as much employment as they can afford, and to contribute, by way of public subscrip tion and private charity, to the relief of distress. Whilst the resident landlord is subjected to all these deductions, and whilst he is called upon to pay heavy taxes for the employment of the poor, no contribution is demanded from the monied classes, who receive in many cases a larger portion of the rents of the landlord than that which falls to his own share. Mortgagees and persons deriving jointures and annuities from land will escape altogether from the taxation imposed for the relief of public distress. I am far from contending that the agricultural classes should be exempted from an equitable contribution to wards the relief of the poor, and I rejoice to perceive that the principle of distributing the burden of taxation between landlord and tenant has been adopted in the re ceut Act ; but it is altogether inconsistent with equity to cast exclusively upon that class of the community which must necessarily suffer the greatest amount of privation from the failure of the potato crop, nearly the whole responsibility of providing for the alleviation of this calamity. My object in addressing to your Lordship the fore going observations has been to i m p ress y ou with a sense of the danger to which the peace, if not the existence, of society in this country is at present exposed; and to con vince you that the measures hitherto adopted are not only wholly inadequate to the crisis, but also, in many respects, unjust in their nature. Being disposed to be lieve that you will not be unwilling to take into consider ation the suggestions of one of the representatives of the Irish people, I venture shortly to recapitulate some of the measures which the present exigency appears to me to require. It is greatly to be desired that Parliament should re assemble early in October. If I say that it onght to be convened in Dublin, the proposal will probably excite your Lordship's ridicule ; but such is my opinion. The power of her Majesty to summon her Parliament to meet in Dublin is unquestionable. The autumnal session of this year, whether to be held in Dublin or in London, ought to be dedicated chiefly to the consideration of Irish questions, both social and political. Irrespectively of the urgency of the present distress, the several members of your government have frequently proclaimed that a long career of useful legis lation is due to the Irish nation, and we have ostenta tiously paraded their disposition to effect such legislation whenever they should be invested with power. We have now an opportunity of ascertaining the sincerity of these declarations, and believe me, my Lord, none will be more ready to accord to you their uubought homage for bene fits conferred upon Ireland than those who, whilst they seek no personal favours from your administration, are resolved never to relax their efforts to render their country independent of the caprice of an English Go vernment and of an English Parliament. I should be compelled to enlarge this letter beyond the limits which I have imposed upon myself, if I were to enter into a full discussion of all the remedial mea sures which ought to be submitted to Parliament when so convened. You will find in the numerous Parlia mentary reports relative to Ireland, and in the reports of the Repeal Association, matter sufficient to occupy the attention of Parliament during many months. I content myself with enumerating a few of these mea sures which appear to be most imperatively required under the present circumstances of this country. They are such as would not fail to obtain the most attentive consideration on the part of an Irish Parliament. Proposals for public expenditure upon works of a national character—such as naval dock-yards, safety harbours, a central prison, an asylum for criminal luna tics, agricultural schools, museums, &c., &c. Advances of public money by way of loan, in aid of the enterprises which offer a prospective return sufficient to indemnify the state for its outlay. Of this nature are railways in progress towards completion, canals, water works, mercantile docks, piers, and other works under taken by companies or individuals. A special tax upon absentees in aid of local objects of an useful nature. A Bill to secure to tenants, when removed from their , holdings compensation for the labour and capital ex . pended by thein in substantial improvements. - Measures more effective than those hitherto adopted fur the drainage and reclamation of waste lands.

Your Lordship cannot be ignorant of the nature or CONDITION OF THE DORSET SHIRE LABOURER. BEAMINSTER, THURSDAY. —This afternoon a nume rous and highly respectable meeting of the inhabitants of Dorsetshire, was held in the parochial school-room in this town, for the purpose "of taking into consideration the propriety of forming a society for bettering the con dition of the labouring classes by the field garden allot ment system. The Right Hon. Lord Stavordale took the chair ; and amongst a large attendance of clergymen on the plat form, were the Revs. Messrs. Crookson, Mayers, Morris, Worthy, Blennerhassett, Whitehead, Helyar, Lane, Ward, and C. Fox. Several ladies were also present. Lord STAVORDALE, on taking the chair, observed that a circular announcing the meeting had been sent to the gentry, the landowners, and the occupiers of land throughout the district. Before he called upon the gen tlemen who had consented to take a part in the proceed ings of the day, he would beg to state the motives that had induced him to be present, and the limits within which he was prepared to support such a society as they contemplated establishing. He was not one of those who believed that the field garden system was a perfect remedy for all the evils and ills of the condition of the labourer of this country—that it would totally put an end to the distress to which they were some times liable ; but he did believe it would be an alle viation of that distress, and, therefore, he was prepared to do what he could to assist in this undertaking. It had been said that no prospect was so pleasant as that from a man's own window over his own land. That sentiment savoured of considerable selfishness, and he should be sorry to inculcate it into the labourer, but in a limited sense he was inclined to receive - it. He was in clined to believe that no pleasure was sweeter than that which a labourer naturally takes in the plot of land, rented by himself and cropped by his own exertions and those of his family.—(Cheers.) With regard to the practical question—what chance they had of establishing such a society in this district, he would observe, that in that town the allotment system had already been estab lished, and he had been informed by the founder of it, that there was an extensive competition for the land. He had no doubt other towns were similarly circumstanced, and, therefore, he thought there was a good opening for their exertions. He was quite aware that the establish ment of a society was a matter of some difficulty and delicacy, but he thought, with proper management and forbearance, they might bring over those who at present were doubtful of the success of their scheme. If the tenants would look with favour on the scheme, and en deavour to unite to form a society, he did think that they would find it of benefit to all classes.—(Cheers.) Captain STEEL, the secretary, then, at the request of the Chairman, read letters which he had received in reply to circulars sent to Lord Ashley, the Lord Bishop of Salisbury. the High Sheriff of the county, Mr. N. B. Cochrane, M.P. for Brid port, Sir Dudley Hill, Captain Scobell, the Rev. John Mutes, Rev. J. F. Johnson, Rev. Mr. Maskell, and Dr. B. Wills, M.D., of Brixton. The most important parts of these communications we subjoin:— (Front Lord Ashley.) " Ryde, August 28. " Sir,—lt would give me much pleasure to assist the projected association for the benefit of the labouring classes in Dorset, by every means in my power. I shall be happy, if I can thus render any service, to become one of the patrons.—Your very obedient servant, " ASHLEY." (From the Lord Bishop of the diocese.) " Swo.na,ge, August 29. " Sir,—l am very sorry that it will not be in my power to be present at the meeting; but if the associa tion be formed for the purpose of promoting the object referred to in your letter, I shall be happy to become a member of it, in such capacity as the Committee may desire. I have been able to do something in the fur therance of the field garden system in the parish of Chardstock, where I have set apart twelve acres of land, under the management of the clergyman of the parish, to be occupied in this manner. It appears to be the surest mode in which a certain amount of good can be done to the poor of our agricultural parishes. " I am, Sir, your very faithful servant, . _ " E. SARUM." The High Sheriff, in his letter, stated that he " had ong had allotments en his estate, and under his rules ,hey had been found to answer well, Our limitation has been quarter acres, except where the families have been large, when half an acre has not been found too much." Mr. Cochrane stated that, " in my parishes, in Scot land, I have always found the system adopted with the happiest results." Captain Scobell (who has had extensive experience of the system) supplied the following suggestions, which he recommended as rules for the contemplated society:— "1. That there must be no favourites among the tenants ; neither exclusion in the onset from previous misdeeds. This is not only a preserving, but a reclaim ing system. " 2. The tenants should be (except in cases of sick ness or accident) self-maintaining labourers and jour neymen mechanics—no higher grades, or permanent paupers. "3. The land should be of good average quality. They can uphold it. Its situation should be convenient. "4. The size of the respective field-gardens ought to be from 20 to 40 poles, enough to grow for home con sumption, but not enough to make them salesmen. "5. Above all, the rent should not be more nor less than the proportionate charge to the farmer for similar land. If it is more, the motive will be suspected ;if less, it will look like charity, and seem to want permanency. "6. Let the rules for occupation be few and simple ; easy to be understood, and not likely to be questionable in performance. A tenant should never be displaced but for a proved breach of one of these rules. "7. A portion should be planted (and from the potato failure a large portion) with vegetables, not potatoes." Colonel BRAGUE then rose to move the first resolution. Having briefly expressed the pleasure he felt at seeing the excellent young nobleman in the chair, supporting the measures of another Noble Lord (he meant Lord Ashley) he moved— " That practical experience, both in the neighbouring county and elsewhere, has shown that field•garden allot ments have been the means of administering to the com forts of the labourer and of reclaiming him from idle and dissolute habits." The Rev. J. F. WHITTT, in seconding this, contended that the system realised both the objects stated. That an increase of comfort was needed by the labourer no one there he should think would doubt or question. It is well known that there was in many parishes great destitution, and in seasons of great trial the afflictions of the poor would be enough to make those surrounded with the comforts of life shudder at the extent of them. The Rev. Gentleman bore testimony to the good effects of the system in the county of Suffolk, where he had seen it carried out by Sir Edward Kerrison, and where many poachers had been reclaimed by its influence. Mr. BANIDINEL proposed the second resolution. He said he thought it was their duty and their interest to do all they could for those whom God had been pleased to place beneath them, but upon whom he looked with an equal eye—(Cheers)-- but that that object was carried out better by the landlord and the farmer than by any one else they had ample experience. The Rev. Mr. WARD, of Compton Valiance, seconded the resolution in a long and able speech. He said he was not a very proper person to address them on the subject of allotments, because about two years ago he gave a por tion of his glebe land as allotments, and this year it had been returned on his hands ; but this he must add, that his parishioners were blessed with a landlord who was a father to them, and a tenant vsho was a very good mas ter. Were that the case throughout the country, there would be no need of such associations as this. In a neighbouring parish, however, he had been struck with the difference in appearance produced by the introduction of the system, and, as a further proof, he might mention that in the neighbourhood of Naples— the plain of Sorrentet—la found 35,000 people living in comfort and comparative affluence upon a piece of land four miles long by two broad, There were no poor laws, and there were no beggars, which in Italy was a remarkable thing. Every one had a fair day's wages for a fair day's work. The country was principally cul tivated by the spade, and the product was so enormous that every creature found a comfortable subsistence. How happened it that within these British dominions, the richest in the world, there were large numbers of the population more miserable than any population in the world ? How came it that the peasantry of Eng land were the worst educated of any in Europe ? He did not speak of that county in particular ; yet still there was distress enough in some parishes to warrant them in calling for the formation of a Dorset Labourers' Society. Such society was not needed on estates where they had paternal landlords ; but it was needed where the land was in the hands of persons of small property, as he knew a large portion of the west of Dorset was. But, atter all, it was to the landlords of England that they must look in that emergency.—(Cheers.) If—he might say it fearlessly in that county—if the landlords of England would but do their duty, every one else would do theirs.—(Cheers.) He believed that an enor mous responsibility in the sight of God rested upon them. Let them not look to what was wanted in the large ma nufacturing towns—let them look at home. The land lords had no right to expect those under them to take their places in tending to the wants and comforts of those who were their especial care—the poor.—(Cheers.) But when he affirmed it to be the duty of the landlord to have the tenantry on his estate under his peculiar care, not only those in his own pet cottages, but those in the most remote corner of his estate—when he said that he would not debar the tenant from his privilege, for surely it must be to him a great happiness to ride over his farm and find his labourers glad to see him, in stead of saying, " Here comes master," and hiding themselves.—(Loud cheers.) But when he thought 1 their own responsibilities and duties he confessed he felt at a loss for words to express his feelings. It had been asked how could the clergy interfere ? His answer was, from first to last the clergy had the education of England's best hope—the young heirs of her fair broad lands—and a word spoken by them had had immense effect. He did believe that if the clergy would do their duty, England would be in a very different state. If landlord, tenant, and clergy would do their duty, then would they indeed see increased domestic comfort in their peasantry—then indeed would industrious habits be encouraged, and our Queen would reign (to use the words of King George the Good) in the hearts of a loyal and religious people.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. GILBERT proposed the third resolution, which the Rev. Mr. LANE supported. The fourth resolution, forming the society, was pro posed by Mr. J. Gundry, a large manufacturer of Brid port, and seconded by Mr. Gilbert. It was determined that the Lords Ilchester, Portarlington, Bridport, Ash ley, Rivers, and the Lord Bishop of Salisbury, should be patrons ; the Lord Stavordale, president ; and the Hon. and Rev. Somerville Hay, the Hon. and Rev. W. Scott, the High. Sheriff of the county, the Members for the county, the Members for Bridport and Lyme, Sir J. B. Smith, Mr. H. C. Compton, M.P., and Mr. R. B. Sheridan, M.P., vice-presidents. Mr. SPARKS (and the Rev. W. B. Whitehead, vicar of Chard) then, at the request of the Chairman, detailed the progress of the society with which they were con nected—the Crewkerne, Chard, and Ilminster Field- Garden Allotment and Labourers' Friend Society, which had been in existence fourteen years, and now comprised thirty parishes, and more than 800 allotments. The Rev. Gentleman expatiated on its good effects at consi derable length, and commended it for saving the la bourers from the demoralising, detested, and degrading influences of the union workhouse. It also, by amelio rating their moral condition, elevated them morally and religiously, for the Bible was a plant which would never flourish well amidst scenes of destitution and pauperism. He advocated, with it, clothing clubs, loan funds, savings' banks, and parochial schools. He was not foolish enough to suppose that they could ever attain an Arcadia. Vain were the search for scenes like these : No view appears, " By sighs unruffled, or unstained by tears." But let thew remember that though the poor were " not to cease out of the land," it was in their power to remove the sting from poverty.—(Loud cheering.) The Rev. Gentleman, in conclusi on , congratulated the county on having, by such a meeting, given so noble a refutation to their heartless traducers. Captain STEEL said, he would not call in question whit had been said, nor would he justify what had been written of the county ; but he wished to remark that this meeting had not been called forth either by the re port of the Committee of the Commons on field-garden allotments, or by the animadversions of the press. The committee, at their first meeting, were deeply impressed with the necessity for such a society. He could also as sure them that the gentleman who appeared there as an emissary of the parent society, had as little to do with any of those animadversions as he had. The resolutions having all been carried nein. con., Mr. J. PoPE, tenant farmer, proposed a vote of thanks to the Noble President ; and, in reference to an obser vation respecting Mr. Sheridan, observed—Let the Hon. Gentleman exercise the same discretion in carrying out his benevolent intentions as the Noble Lord, and be shall have as hearty a welcome. Lord STAVORDALE returned thanks, and observed that he firmly believed that Mr. Sheridan's motives had been misconstrued. The meeting then separated. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. HUMANITY IN THE LAW OF DEBTOR AND CREDITOR.— A case having come before the L , rd Mayor in which an unfortunate debtor was stated to have been incapacitated from attending to answer for having omitted to pay cer tain rates, The LORD MAYOR himself represented to the appli cant the obligation upon him to do all with charity, and stated that Mr. Burden, the governor of Whitecross street Prison, had, on Saturday, on presenting his entry batik to the gaol committee, pointed out a passage of which the following is a copy:— " Richard M--n was committed to the Debtors' Prison, Whitecross-street, on the 9th instant, by the Court of Bankruptcy, under the Small Debts' Act, for forty days, for a debt of 51. 16s. 11d. The prisoner, aged sixty, was brought in a cab, and appeared to be labouring under imbecility of mind and iu a low sinking state of bodily health, requirint him to be immediately put to bed in the infirmary. On the following day the Governor made an affidavit of the facts, eccompanied with the surgeon's certificate, and applied to Mr. Com missioner Fane for the prisoner's discharge, under the 62d clause of the 7th and Bth Victoria, cap. 96, which application (although the first of the kind) was granted, and the prisoner was restored to his home on the same day, having his immediate necessities relieved from the Sheriffs' fund." His Lordship observed, that nothing could be a more persuasive indication of the advancing improvement of the times than such an evidence of the lenient character of the laws respecting debtor and credi tor. Formerly poor wretches, who, like multitudes of paupers of the present day, were criminal only by their poverty, were dragged from their beds of sickness and of straw, to gratify the viedictive spirit of creditors. By the untiring labours, however, of bene volent men in the Legislature and in the press, the frightful inhumanity exercised against poor debtors and poor paupers was undergoing a certain, although a slow change. He trusted, and he believed, that neither the Parliament nor the press would be silent so long as the evils which were so powerfully condemned by the friends of the poor existed in a shape at all formidable. In speaking of those who were unable to pay their debts, he of course excluded the persons who had dishonestly con tracted debts. To quite a different tribunal he would submit the case of all such individuals. The following is the clause upon which Mr. Burden applied for the discharge of his prisoner : " 62d. And be it enacted, that if it shall at any time appear to the satisfaction of the judge of any such court, by the oath or affirmation of any person, or otherwise, that any defendant is unable, from sickness or unavoid able accident, to pay and discharge the debt or damages recovered against him, or any instalment thereof ordered to be paid as aforesaid, it shall be lawful for the judge in his discretion to suspend or stay any judgment, order, or execution given, made, or issued in such action, for such time as the judge shall think fit, and so from time to time, until it shall appear by the like proof as aforesaid that such temporary cause of disability has ceased." His Lordship finally observed, that it was satisfactory to him to be able to state that the sheriffs' fund, which was applicable to all cases of the kind, had lately ren dered essential services in the great mass of cases in which prisoners who had been confined were discharged without being possessed of property to the amount of one farthing. He thought that the expression of his feelings and opinions in a place to which such numbers of cases of misfortune and suffering were brought would attract the attention of the benecent to the general condition of the poor, and wake more manifest the ne cessity of a more extended and active sympathy. A young man, named John Edwin, who looked like a simple country lad, was charged with having stolen several silk handkerchiefs in the course of his rambles on Saturday. The prisoner turned out to be a perfect " filch " and a philosopher. Haydon, City policeman, No. 274, stated that on Saturday evening, as he was coming ashore from a steam-boat at Swan-pier, he saw the prisoner close behind a gentleman, and observed, from certain move ments, that " something was about to be done." The prisoner walked deliberately out of the vessel, and the officer went round, met him in Swan-lane, and took him into custody, having given notice to the gentleman to follow. Upon the person of the prisoner were found five silk handkerchiefs, one of which was at once identi fied. One he tied neatly round the calf of each leg ; another was adding in like manner to the size of each arm, while the fifth was elsewhere inge niously disposed about him. Ile had made each of the handkerchiefs change its master on board the steamer in the short voyage from Hungerford-market to London bridge. As the prisoner was going to the station-house, with a crowd behind, he said, " well, it is a bad job, and no mistake ; but it was to be, and how could such as me stop it ? I'm nailed, but I can't help it." The LORD MAYOR—WeII, prisoner, you had a good day's work I perceive. The prisoner—l have been dreadful hard up, your Lordship, I do assure you ; why, I have been obliged to beg. I tried on everything before I tried on this, but it would not do. The LORD MAYOR—People do not go into steamers to beg. The prisoner —They'll go anywhere to beg, please you my Lord. 'The LORD MAYOR—You are an expert hand, and I shall send you for trial. The prisoner —Don't send me for trial—there will be no merit in conwicting me. It's too plain a case.— (Laughter.) Consider my poverty this once, please you my Lord, and give me a summary. The LORD MAYOR—No, you will not do for London. The prisoner—Well, my Lord, if you can't be per suaded to do a kind thing, why then I must do as you wish.—(A laugh.) Committed for trial. GUILDHALL. EMBEZZLEMENT.—A youth named Willia m Tbbutt, in the employment of Mrs. Henderson, a baker in Fore street, was charged before Mr. Alderman Hunter with embezzling several sums of money, varying from 6s. to 305., received in payment on acconnt from different cus tomers. Some charges were established, but the case was remanded till Friday next, in order to give the pro- secutrix an opportunity of ascertaining to what extent the system of embezzlement may have been carried on. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. James Martin was brought up, charged with stealing wearing apparel, the property of John Brodie, labourer. The complainant said he was in bed that morning about.twenty minutes to six o'clock, and was awoke by a noise as of some one in the room. He looked, and saw the man at the bar making his way to the door, with a bundle of clothes under his arm and a pair of shoes in his hand. He pursued him down stairs into the back kitchen, and there found him with a pair of his shoes on his feet, and a bundle containing a waistcoat, neckerchief, trousers, and coat, all belonging to the com plainant. He said the man was an entire stranger, and had no business in the house. The defendant, whose - excuse was quite beside the point. was committed for trial at the ensuing sessions. Mary Gordon was placed at the bar, charged with stealing several articles of wearing apparel from the house, 21, King• street, Soho. Mary Cooper said she had left her rooms for a few minutes, and on her return found the woman at the bar with a bundle of clothes in her hand at the bottom of the stairs. The complainant left her nephew in charge of the woman and the bundle while she ran up stairs and examined her drawers, when she found several articles missing. She gave the woman into custody. She identified the contents of the bundle as her property. The nephew and the policeman gave corroborative evidence. The prisoner, who was crying, and who said she did not know what she was doing at the time, was committed for trial. MARKET NE WS.-(Y_ES TERDA Y.) C ORN-EXCIZA.NO E. m The arrivals of English Wheat for our arket last week were considerably on the increase, those of all other articles of home produce, including Flour, small. From Ireland and Scotland the receipts of Grain were very trifling, while the imports from abroad were on a limited scale. Fresh up, to day, a full average quantity of home-grown Wheat came to hand, coastwise as well as by land carriage, from Essex, Kent, and Su ssex , h ence t h e stands were much better sup plied with samples than for some weeks past. This, together with the prevailing fine weather, had some influence upon the trade. Fine dry qualities were, however, in steady re quest, at an advance in the quotations obtained on Monday last of Is per quarter, being a decline of Is on Friday's prices, but the middling and inferior kinds were a slow inquiry, at the rates quoted on this day se'nnight, and a clearance was not effected without difficulty. We had a fair average quantity of free Foreign Wheat on sale. Holders were not quite so firm as last week, and a few sales were effected in the secondary qualities at a trifling decline on Friday's rates. The transactions for export in bonded qua lities were confined to a few low qualities of Dantzic. Very little Barley was on show. The finest parcels moved off freely, other kinds slowly, at late rates. Fine Malt, ready for delivery, was taken off readily, at very full rates, but the middling and inferior hung on hand. The supply of all kinds of Oats was very trifling; the trade was ; therefore, tolerably steady at Friday's advance of from is to 2s per quarter. Very abort supplies of this article may be expected for some time hence. Several parcels of Rye found buyers at extreme figures. The show of Beans was again small, but equal to the wants of the buyers, who purchased sparingly at late rates. In Peas comparatively little was doing, and prices were with difficulty supported. Flour moved off slowly at our quotations.

We had on offer about 650 Beasts, 2,100 Sheep and Lambs, and 30 Calves from abroad, in, generally speaking (if we ex cept the Sheep), good condition. Nearly the whole found buyers, at late rates. From our own grazing districts the arrivals of beasts were somewhat on the increase, but of middling quality; altogether the Bullock supply was large. Prime Scots, moved off steadily at last week's quota tions; but in some instances the value of the inferior breeds had a downward tendency, and a clearance of such was with difficulty effected. The droves from the northern districts comprised 1,800 short-horns ; from the eastern counties, 300 Scots, short-horns, &c. ; from the western and midland districts, 900 Herefords, runts, Devons, &c. ; and from other parts of England, 600 of various breeds. The numbers of Sheep were again seasonably extensive, yet the Mutton trade was very steady, and last Monday's cur rencies were readily supported. In Lambs, the numbers of which were good—a full average amount of business was transacted, at late rates. The Veal trade was steady, at full prices. Pigs moved off steadily, at our quotations.

BOROUGH HOP MARKET. Owing to the large quantities of new Hops daily arriving here from Kent and ussex, the demand has been inactive, and lower rates have been again submitted to. Many par ties have, however, withdrawn their samples for the present. Sussex Pockets are selling at from 80s to 88s; and Kent ditto, 84s to 1003 per cwt. These low prices are undoubtedly caused by the favourable accounts from the plantations, and the excellent co n d i ti on i n w hi c h the Hops come to hand. In Yearling and Old Hops, which are offering at considerably reduced figures, scarcely a transaction has taken place. The duty is now called 200,0001. BOROUGH AND SPITAX.PIELDS. The supplies of Potatoes still continue large, but compara tively speaking, of inferior quality. Selected qualities are in good request, at from 51 to 61 per ton, but the diseased par cels are selling as low as 31 par ton. OOL. The imports of Wool into London last week were 800 bales, 111 being from Hamburgh, .541 Algoa Bay, and the remainder from various quarters. The public sales, which commenced on Thursday, continue to be well attended, and most of the parcels offered have found buyers at fully the last sales prices. In the private contract market very little business is doing, yet the holders are not disposed to accept of lower rates. TALLOW. This market is very firm, and prices are steadily advanc ing. Fine old Y.C. is 42s 3d, and fine new Y.C. 42s 9d per cwt. Town Tallow is firm, at 41s 6d net cash. The advises from St. Petersburgh received this morning have a tendency upwards; the prices paid are higher, at which a fair business is doing. The shipments are limited compared with former years.

SHIPWRECK OF HER MAJESTY'S SHIP OSPREY NEW ZEALAND.—On Saturday dispatches were received by the Lords of the Admiralty, communicating the total loss of her Majesty's ship Osprey, twelve guns, com manded by Captain Patten, off False Hokianga, on the coast of New Zealand. The following are the parti culars:—On Tuesday, the 10th of March last, the Osprey went off the western coast of the above-mentioned co lony, returning to England. The master had taken an observation, which proved that she was in latitude of Hokianga, but the weather coming on thick and hazy, she was kept off the land till the evening, when it cleared away. She then stood in and fired two guns to announce to the pilot at H o kianga th a t th e ship was off the har bour, but again stood to sea for the night. .O n the fol lowing morning, on nearing the coast, a high southern headland, similar . to Hokianga, was seen, with what was presumed the ploys house, butt Which subsequently proved to be a white spot on the cliff. Soon after wards, perceiving a flag run up, i t was confidently anticipated that it was the entrance of the Hoki anga, and the ship stood on, over the surf, bring ing the northern and southern heads in one. After crossing the breakers, which were judged to be the three of the Hokianga, the vessel touched the ground; but it was thought that she was just merely on the bar, over which she would soon forge, but almost immediately she struck again, with increased violence, and a succession of shocks brought the alarming conviction that she was on shore, and that it was not the entrance to Hokianga, but that of Haere-Kino, or False Hokianga, situate eighteen miles from the real harbour of Hokianga. The guns (12) were instantly thrown overboard, and the masts were cut away, which, falling with the sails set towards the shore, dragged the ship still higher on the beach. On the tide receding, the vessel being about half way between high and low water mark, the officers and crew were enabled to land about two o'clock on the morning of the 12th, with their small arms and some dry ammu nition, which bad fortunately been saved on deck, the greater part having been thrown overboard. The vessel stood upright in the sand, and appeared but slightly injured ; it is feared, however, that she can never be got off, owing to the character of the coast. The natives rendered ever y p oss ibl e assistance to the officers and crew. The accounts state that they are friendly and peaceable. The Racehorse had been dis patched from New Zealand, to bring . back the unfor tunate ship's crew. A court-martial will be appointed to try the master for the loss of the Tessa WORKS by ROBERT J.
