This arma ment, together wall the great advantage which this vessel possesses ,of throwing boiling water, must afford a protection adequate to an attack from any of the picaroons lurking in these seas. Yer engine is one of the most powerful, and is capable of throwing double ,the quantity of water (boiling hot) which an ordinary fire engine now in use in this city can. It is certain she can dis charge from her boiler ten hogsheads, of 120 gallons each, in a minute, and throw it nearly to a distance of point blank musket range.

On the 19th July Captain DAYMOND sailed from the coast of Newfoundland, and in the evening encountered several floating islands of ice. On the following morning, at sun-rise, the ship was so completely enveloped in ice that there appeared no-means of es-cape, even from the tops of themasts. The ice, in its whole ex tent, rose about 14 feet above the surface of the i water; it d r ift e d t owar d s the - south-east, and 'lore the ship along with it 2 9 successive days. On the 17th Feb., Captain D. being 300 miles east of Cape Place, in 44. 37. north lat., per 'cetved an opening to the south-east, and sue.: eoeded in disengaging himself. From the.l9th January to- the-3d of February the brig only made four miles a day, and during the 29 days Th 's 'singular navigation lasted he descried near 100 very , extensive mountains of compact ice.

[PRIVATE LETTEU.] MulovEn, OCT. 24.--41 is MAJESTY'S depai tgre7Was been postponed to the 29th of. this month, as. his ; Majesty is notyet sufficiently re covered to undergo the' fatigues of so long.a jour• ney. The weather here is yet fine for the season of the 'year, but it is feared that rain will succeed and render 'the roads very bad. His Majesty, . • it is • said, had yesterday a slight return of pain, 'which prevented his dining with the • 7 • • :f4 members of his august family.. His Majesty, according to - the reports in the city, had invited their Royal Highnesses the Dukes and Duchesses of CuMberland and, Cambridge and their .chil i . dren, - the. Landgravine of Hesse Homburg, the. . , Dukes-of-Brunswick, &c. His 'Majesty •resides in kii_apartineriti; where none are alleiwed. , t4 enter, :.except the:inVmbers of the Royal Family, and. - Ministers of State, and the English attendants. The avenue lead ! mg from Herreuhausen -to the city seems de serted in comparison to the first days a ft er his . . Majesty's arrival. H i s, Majesty's continued ab,- sence from ,the various exhibitions and amuse ments has rendered them - dull. The exact day of his Majesty's departure cannot be known, • for it depends upon the state of..his Majesty's. health. Monday has been fixed. upon, but none can be certain. It is. intended to' proceed by easy stages,- so as to be eleven days upon" the road. On the first night th e Kin g is ,turest at Rothenkirche, and the second in Minden. The, route afterwards is to continue-through Coblenti, Cologne, Aix-la-Chapelle, Liege, and,Brussels. Prince Metternicharrived here on the• AOth, in.the. evening, and on the following' day he was Pre-' seated to his Majesty by Count Munster, the Ha noverian Minister for Foreign Affairs. The King, it is reported, was not able to receive the Prince otherwise than as an invaVd,. Seated in an easy chair, With his leg stretched out on a couch. The Hanoverian newspaper (a paper which is at least demi-official) states that Prince: Metternich haS come as being specially deputed by the. Em peror -of Austria to congratulate his Majesty on his arrival in his Continental dominions. That 'May partly be the object of his .visit, but nobody believes that this great diplomatic ✓ character came here for nothing more, particularly while one of the Imperial family, Prince Ferdinand, is here, deputed specially for that purpose. Prince Met ternich' and the Marquis of LOndOnderry visit each other daily. Count Lieven has not yet arrived, although the Countess came 'to Hanover On Sunday. The protracted, absence Of the Count, united with some of- the-late declarations of Russia, gives cause of surmises . uufavourable4o the. peace •of Europe. The toffee-house politi cians here think that it looks as if-Russia.was determined to wage war with the Turks_witliout the consent of Austria and of England. England, they-say, will then wage war with "Russia, - and they ; look. forward to the occupation of Hanover by the troops of •Prussia as a matter of course. Mention this merely as the chit-chat of the place. IVe have 'here many of the Diplomatists from the German Courts, Mr. Rose fioni Berlin, and Mr. Gordon from . Vienna, the Prussian" Minister, Count Von llulow, the Duke of Nassau's Minis ter, Baron Von Marschall, Count Von Schlieffen, besides those whose names have been before stated. The Grand Duke ;of Saxe Weimar ar rived here yesterday. The Prince of Thurn and Taxis, and Count Von Bernstoff, have left Ha nover.;- the latter is gone to Gartow. Couriers set -out twice or thrice a week: to Paris. The Landgrave of Hesse Homburg has arrived.,—Let ters are said to have been received here from Prince Leopold of Saxe Coburg, stating, that his Royal Highness was about to proceed to Italy • With his mother, whose health has for some time past been in a very precarious state. I have this mo ment inqiiirld after his Majesty'S health at the Palace, and.have been informed that his . Majeitv slept well during the night, and : that lie hiniself 'quite well. The various members of the . Royal Family are to-day to dine with his Majes ty„ and in the. evening there is to be a drawing room. His Majesty is not expected to leave the Palace to=day.. . It_ is said, that in the evening, the middle classes, or as they are called here, the burghers, intend to give his Majesty a serenade or torch music, similar to that which was before given by the officers.—The parties which have been given by the Duke of Cambridge have, in some slight degree, enlivened the general dullness. There was a party yesterday even ing, at the Duke of Cumberland's residence.-- En the morning there was an exhibition of the King's stud of horses, which are very fine.— The stables are superior to the-mews- in London. The Artillery troops, after they had performed various manoeuvres before Prince Ferdinand of Austria, on. Saturday last, departed • to their win ter stations, The highest praisewas giVen to them by Prince Ferdinand, who is acknowledged to tie'a good judge. The Duke of Cambridge has returned public thanks in the name of the King, to- ail the troops, and has also apressed his:Majesty's regret, that indispositica prevented fiiin from .witnessingtheir manoeuvres.
