It had been my intention, and i my regret that extreme pressure of business contingent upon an appointment to the Government of India, deprived roe of the power per sonally to take my leave of you. Still I cannot embark without the satisfaction of assur ing you, that a grateful recollection of your marked favour will always be alive in my heart ; and your happi ness individually, and your prosperity collectively, will ever be among the most earnest of my anxious prayers.

The SPEAKER laid before the House on Monday the fol lowing communication, which was read, and laid on the table : " Treasury Department, fan. 4, YB2B. " Sir,--I have the honour to transmit the annual state ment of the district tonnage of the United States, on the 31st of December, 1526, with the letter of the register of the Treasury, amounting to 1,534,190 S3-95ths, and spewing an aggregate increase during the year, of 111,079 06-95ths. " By the comparative statement of the tonnage of the United States, annexed to the commercial statements which were transmitted to Congress on the 25th of February last, it will be seen, that, from the year 1818, when the tonnage had fallen to 1,225,184, there was a progressive increase to the end of 1825, amounting, in the average, to 28,276 annually. The greatest increase was in the year 1824, when it was 52,597. It will be satisfactory to observe, that the increase of the year 1826 has exceeded the increase of the year just named by 58,481, and has exceeded the average annual increase of the whole period, by 82,808 tons. " This increase has been chiefly in the enrolled licensed tonnage, but the increase in the registered tonnage has also been considerable ; exceeding the greatest increase in any of those years, by 6,375, and exceeding the average in crease of the period mentioned, by 23,374 tons. " I have the honour to remain, with great respect, " Your obedient Servant, " RICHARD RUSH. " The Honourable the Speaker of the House of Itcpre. sentatives of the United States." OLD BAILEY.

These branches of manufacture have for some time been in a most flourishing state ; great difficulty being some times experienced in fulfilling orders for the market.-- During the whole of the late dulness, when almost every business came in for a large share of the depression, the carpet and bonnet weaving suffered comparatively little, and not a farthing Was deducted from the wages that had been previously given for the work. Those employed at the bonnets are for the most part women, and so urgent is the demand for these articles, that a single isonnet is sometimes hardly to be got from the manufacturers, so general is the sweep which they are tinder the necessity of making to fulfil their orders. The greater part of the supply goes for the use the. army. 'The manufacture of printed worsted .;hawls is also ex ceedingly brisk ; a species of manufactur e w hi c h i s almost wholly confined to Kilmarnock. The number of weavers employed in this brarich, amou n t to 100, and the, number of printers to about I'2o.

Their earnings vary from 25s to 30s. a-week, and they demand an advance of 81 pet cent. They have selected this particular period for their turn out, being well aware of the p ros p er ity of the trade, and judging that their masters, from the pressure of orders, would be necessitated to comply with-their wishes. It so happened, however, that at the time of their strike, few orders were on hand, and the gr ea t er num b er o f t h e mas t ers h ave d etermined to resist the dem an d, an d some h ave b egun t o p l ace weavers in their situations. The probability is, that the demand for goods will very soon put the masters to their shift ; and they have resolved that when this is the case, unless the printers go in at the old prices, they shall supply their places with weavers, great num b ers o f w h om are otThring their services. It has been found that with a little prac tice, th e y perform the work as neatly and cleanly as the regular tradesmen.

MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE.—The brig Rover, from Pernambuco for this port, has put into Warren Point, near Newry, with loss of bowsprit. It ap pears that, towards the latter end of the week before last. the Rover was lying-to off the Calf of Man, during a gale of wind. The night was uncommonly dark, a dense fog rendering it impossible to see the length of the vessel. Whilst things were in this state, the Rorer came in contact with a vessel, schooner rigged, which was also, 'se under stand, lying-to during the gale. The schooner was struck annidships, and, before her crew could make their escape on board the brig, she went down ; and all on board perished. The crew of the Rover were too much engaged with their own vessel, to rends: any aid to the unfortunate crew of the schooner.—Liverpool Advertiser. EXTRAORDINARY INSTANCE OF ANIMAL SAGACITY.—A favourite pony snare, the property of Mr. FIELD EVANe, of Henfaes, near Pool, Montgomeryshire, sometime vo had a colt, and both grazed in a field adjoin ing the Severn. One day the pony, to the surprise of Mr. Fv.xxs and his family, made her appearance in front of the house, and by clattering with her feet, and other noises and motions, showed she wished to attract the attention of per sons in the house. On observing, this, a person went out, and she immediately galloped off. Mr. EVANS suspecting from the extraordinary conduct of the animal all was not right, desired that she should be followed ; and, what was still more extraordinary, all the gates (there were several) from the house to the field were forced open. How the animal did open them no person can conceive. On reach ing the field, the Pony was found looking into the river over the spot where her colt was found drowned, which had no doubt gone too near the river and slipped in ; and its dam finding she could render it no assistance, applied, in this interesting and affectionate manner, to her muter for help. —Shrewsbury Chronicle.

The declarations of that Prince on the subject of the Roman Catholics of Ireland deserve attention : " Cardiff, July 81, 1645. " Ormond--It b a th pl ease d G o d by many suc . cessive misfortun es , to re d uce my a ff a i res o f l ate from a verry prosperous condition to so low an eb as to be a, perfect tryall of all men's integrities to me ; and you being a person whom I consider as most entyrly and generously resolved to stand and fall with your King, I doe principally rely upon you for your utermost assistance in my present hazards. I have comanded Digby to acquaint you at large with all particulars of my condition, what I have to hope, trust to, or feare. Wherein you will fynde that if my expectations of reliefe out of hind, be not in sonic good measure and speedilye answered, I am lvkely to be reduced to great extremity. " I hope one of those expresses I sent you since my misfortune by the battaile of Naseby, ar come to you, and ani therfore confident that you ar in a good forwardness for the sending over to me a consider able supply of men, artillery, and amunition. All that I have to add is, that the necessity of your speedy performing them is made much more pressynge by new disasters, so that I absolutely corn ad you (what hazard soever that kingdoms can come by it), personally to bring me all the forses of what sort soever you can draw from thence, and leave the Government there (during e your absence) in the fittest hands that you shall judge best to dis charge it ; for I may not want you heere to comand, those forces which will be brought from thence, and such as from hence shall be joyned to those. "But . you must not understand this as a permis sion for you to grant to the Irish (in case they will not otherwais have a peace) any thing more in mat ter of religion than what 1 have allowed alreddy„ except only in some convenient parishes where the much greater number ar Papists. I give you power to permitt them to have some places which they may use as chappells for their devotions if there be no other impediment for obtaining a peace; bat I will rather cause to suffer all extremities than ever to abandon my religion and particularly ether to English or Irish rebells. To which effect I have commanded Dighy to wryt to their agents that were employed hither : giving yon power to cause deliver and suppresse this letter as yon shall judge best foe my service. " To conclude, if the Irish shall so unworthily take advantage of my weake condition as to presse me to that which I cannot grant with a safe consci ence and without it to reject a peace, 1 comand you if you can to procure a farther cessation; if not to make what divisions you can among them and ra ther leave it to the chance of a warr between them and these forces which you have not power to draw to my assistance than to give my consent to any such allowance of Popery as must evidently brynge de struction to that profession which by the grace of God I shall now maintaine through all extremities. " I know, Ormond, that I impose a very hard taske upon y ou b ut if God prosper me you will be a happy and glo r i ous sub j ect; if otherwais von will perishe nobly an d gene rouslywith him an d 'f or hi nt who is your constant reall and faithful friend, " CHARLES, R. " For the Marquis of Ormond." A memorandum on the back of the letter, in the handwriting of Ormond, notes the day on which letter was received, and by whose banils it came.

On Thursday the 17th tilt. there was :t very heavy fall of snow on Staiumore, accompanied by a strong wind from the east. The Glasgow mail left Mr. FRYER'S inn, at Brough, about midnight, with six excellent horses, and had not proceeded further than Shape Stones Pasture, litte more than three miles, when it was discovered that the horses had got off the road. The coachman left his seat to endeavour to set the leaders right, but soon lost his way.. The guard then took one of the lamps to look foe' the coachman, but got so far out of the track, that when the driver cast up he had to go in search of the guard.— There were five passengers, among whom were Lord b NA PIER and Captain GRAHAM, of the Royal Navy.

An admirable instance of presence of mind was exhibited by the herdsman, near Hollvpark, whose house W as attacked a few nights since by an armed party. They handed him a hook to swear, which he adroitly slipped into his pocket; favoured by the darkness, and returned them, unperceived, a different book. This fortunate ruse will, it is confidently believed, lead to the detection of these midnight ruffians.—Limerick Chronicle. SINGULAR NOCTURNAL FISHING.-- A young woman, who resides on the banks of the Carron, near to Carron Works, was astonished, while standing, a few nights ago, at her father's door, to hear a heavy plunging noise in the river. Fearful lest it had proceeded from a human being in distress, she immediately procured t light, and courageously hastened to the spot, to render assistance. Instead, however, of meeting with any thing so disastrous, she was not a little surprised to find that the noise proceeded from the house cat, which, with all the skill of an otter, was in deadly conflict with a fine salmon grilse. • Having rendered Puss prompt assistance, she had the satisfaction of carrying home a very fine fish, weighing four pounds,—Stirling Advertiser.
