(From the Times.) The quarterly statement of the revenue exhibits it still on the increase, notwithstanding the lavish reductions to which it has for some time been con tinually exposed. On the Customs of the quarter compared with that ending October, 1852, there is an increase of 120,6671., in the face of reduced du ties on sugar and tea. The returns of the Board of Trade have already prepared us for this improve ment, by the great increase of importation in al most all articles of general consumption, including sugar and tea, and particularly in wheat. In the quarter's Excise, which has just been largely affected by the repeal of the duty on soap, it is something to report that there has been no decrease. The Stamps show an increase of 98,7421., notwithstand ing an increase of about the same amount in the corresponding quarter of last year. It is the na ture of the Assessed Taxes not to rally, like other sources of revenue, after reductions, under the influence of prosperity, for they are levied on articles not liable to rapid fluctuations of use and demand. Accordingly, after the late revision of those taxes, we are not surprised to find them yield 29,996/. less than in the corresponding quarter of last year, though that quarter still showed the effect of the measure substituting the inhabited house tax for the window duties. A slight increase in the produce of the income tax, and decrease in that of the Post-office, are probably alike matters of account ; as also may be said of an improvement in the receipts from the Crown Lands and Miscel laneous items. The result is, that the net increase on the whole revenue of the quarter from ordinary sources is 226,7541. Taking into account Imprest and other Moneys, and Repayment of Advances, this increase is augmented to 417,7271.—a matter of great congratulation at a time when the prospect of a short harvest, war, and some possible checks to our foreign trade, make it doubly important that the credit of the country should stand high, as it undoubtedly does at this moment. The comparison of the whole year with that end ing October 10, 1852, exhibits corresponding re sults, except that in it there happens to be only one branch of income—that from Miscellaneous items—which does not show an improvement. The several amounts of increase stand thus ;—Customs, 361,5191. ; Excise, 372,768/. ; Stamps, 476,372/. ; Taxes, 27,159/. ; Property-tax, 204,191/. ; Post office, 45,000/. ; Crown Lands, 182,8881. ; while the single head of decrease is 110,0331. On all these heads, except Customs and Taxes, there was an increase in the year ending October 10, 1852, as compared with the year before that. In the present instance the aggregate increase: rom ordi nary sources of revenue on the whole year is no less than 1,559,8641. There is also a large increase in the receipts from Imprest and other Moneys, and, still more, in those from Repayment of Ad vances. The netincrease in the income of the year rises to the very high figure of 2,311,7521. We can hardly anticipate any attempt to explain away so palpable and gratifying a fact. It is very plain that we have not got to the end of the reduc tions of which the revenue is capable, though, of course, the precise time for these reductions must depend upon many considerations besides the buoyancy of the revenue. With a revenue so soun d and so pro d uct i ve, and with an expenditure kept well within bounds, there is not much reason for the misgiving that has been expressed in some quarters as to the pos sibility of the financial operation to come off next January. With a large sum of money in hand, the Chancellor of the Exchequer will probably be able to exchange the requisite amount of South Sea and other annuities for Exchequer-bills with out much difficulty. A s expresse d i n our Cit y Article of yesterday, " public obligations bearing 3 per cent. in perpetuity w ill b e pa id off partly by cash in hand and partly by securities carrying in terest at the rate of 31. Os. 10d. per annum, which will admit of being reduced whenever the money market may be favourabl e f or suc h an o p era ti on ." It is still, indeed, in the power of political events to increase the difficulty and cost of the process, but no imaginary pla n o f convers i on cou ld h ave avoided such contingencies, and, unless we give up all idea of paying off any portion of the debt, except by the ordinary process of buying stock iat market prices, we must be prepared for the casualty of the best possible plan being baulked by the inopportune course of public affairs. For our part, we entertain a confident hope that things will be better rather than worse in January next, and that the Chancellor of the Exchequer will ac complish the conversion of the South Sea and other stocks without that pressure on the money market with which we have been threatened. Ii is veiy . true that the trade of this country is necessarily n an adventurous and so far dangerous state. China, o one can tell how the affairs of Europe, how how Australia, will affect our wealth or our credit, next year. Appearances are so far against but the country has often unexpectedly recovered from more imminent dangers, and it is a great consolation to reflect that in some of these matters we are only doing our duty ; in others, only threatened with what is inevitable. England had no part in the origin of the Eastern difficulty. England has not plunged China into disorder. England has not been too prompt to risk her wealth and credit on the faith of Australian returns. If all these things should prove against her, it is not her fault, nor could they be avoided. EXTRAORDINARY ACCIDENT IN KING WILLIAM STREET.—MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.— Shortly after six o'clock last evening, a most extraordinary accident oc curred in King William-street, London-bridge, nearly opposite the Swan Tavern, which, at the time, caused considerable alarm, and bad nearly proved fatal to several persons. It appears that about the time in question, one of the Favourite omnibuses was proceed ing along the middle of the roadway towards London bridge, when it came in contact with one of Macnamara's luggage-vans, which came in an opposite direction, the pole of the latter forcing its way with great violence through the front panel of the omnibus, immediately behind the off-side horse, and striking with great force the conductor, who happened to be sitting on a seat inside, who was so much injured that, after receiving medical attendance, it was necessary to convey him away in a cab. Fortunately, there was only one pas senger inside (a young lad), who escaped without in jury, and from this circumstance, and th e f a ct of neither of the drivers being hurt, this fearful accident termi nating without loss of life is considered most miraculous. RUSSIAN INVASION OF TURKEY.—Last evening a public meeting of the inhabitants of Kensington, Ham mersmith, and the adjacent districts, was held at the Prince Albert Tavern, Notting-hill, for the purpose of taking into consideration the present aspect of the East ern question, and the conduct of the Government in reference to it. The meeting was a very crowded one, and a large number of persons who presented themselves were unable to obtain admission. Mr. C. W. Dunford was called to the chair, and the meeting was addressed by Mr. R. Bateman, Dr, Truman, Messrs. Ni 3 h o l ay, Williams, Benest e , J. W. Howell and D. Urquhart. The resolutions unanimously adopted, condemned the present system of managing the intercourse of nations, as shown to be injurious by the state of events in the East, and declared the necessity of abandoning secrecy in diplomacy, and attributed the prevailing dearth of provisions more to the conduct of Russia on the Danube than to the defective yield of the late harvest. It was further agreed to appoint a committee to draw up ad dresses to her Majesty the Queen, and the Sultan, and to take measures for their presentation through the usual channels.

OMER PASHA. The Journal des Debats gives the following de tails relative to Omer Pasha who commands the army of the Danube : " Omer Pasha is an Austrian subject • he is a native of Croatia. He was born in 1801 at Vlaski, a village situate in the circle of Ogulini, 13 leagues from Fiume. His family name is Lattas. His father was Lieutenant- Administrator of the circle ; his uncle was a priest of the United Greek Church. Admitted when very young into the School of Mathematics of Thurm, near Carl stadt, in Transylvania, and after having completed his studies with distinction, the young Lattas entered into the corps of the Ponte et Chauss6es ' which in Austria is organised on a milita r y f oo ti ng . In 1830, in conse quence of a misunderstanding with his superiors, he left for Turkey, and embraced Islamism. Chosrew Pasha, who was then Seraskier, took him under his protection, procured him admission into the regular army, and attached him to his personal staff. He even gave him his ward in marriage, who was one of the richest heiresses of Constantinople, and the daughter of one of the Janissaries whose head he had caused to be cut off in 1827, when that corps revolted against the Sultan Mahmoud. In 1833, Lattas, who had taken the name of Omer, was chief of battalion, and was appointed aide de-camp and interpreter to General Chrzanowski, who had charge of the instruction of the Ottoman troops en camped near Constantinople. Omer was thenceforward actively employed in the re-organisation of the Turkish army, and, still protected by Chosrew Pasha, obtained successively important missions and command in the army. The troubles of Syria and the Albanian insur rection of 1846 gave him occasion to distinguish himself, and attracted to him the attention of the Sultan. He was sent to the Kurdistan, and succeeded in obtaining the submission of that province, which was nearly inde pendent of the Porte. Named in 1848 to the command of the army sent to the Danubian provinces, he made the authority of the Sultan respected, while at the same time he respected the susceptibilities and privileges of those provinces, placed as they were under the double protection of Turkey and Russia. " The year 1851 was the most brilliant period of the military career of Omer Pasha. Named Commander-in- Chief of Bosnia, the principal chiefs of which had re fused to recognise the Tanzimat, that is, the new organi sation of the Empire, he combated successfully, though with an inferior force, the Beys of that country. At last he was sent to Montenegro, where he found himself for the first time commanding a regular army of 50,000 men. The intervention of Austria, as is known, put a term to that expedition before decisive operations could be commenced. " At the present date Omer Pasha is at Schumla, at the head of nearly 100,000 men. He is described as dis playing great activity in its organisation, and is occu pied with fortifying the country which may become the theatre of war. " Omer Pasha is about 52 years of age, below the middle height, but with a martial expression of counte nance. He speaks with the same facility the Servian, the Italian, and the German tongues. After the insur rection of Hungary he undertook the defence of the re fugees whose extradition had been demanded by Austria and Russia. He proceeded to Schumla, where he made acquaintance with the principal refugees, and on his arrival at Constantinople, he interfered zealously with the Sultan in their favour. He took several of them with him to Bosnia and Montenegro, and confided to them important posts. Some of them have distinguished themselves greatly, and have remained in the service of Turkey." >unia granted .by Parliament out of the ,•••,••••••••.__ _ to Consolidated Fund, on 10th Oct , 1853 13,665,511 5,367,799 5,739,173 THE CHOLERA. 14,684,169 ( From the General Board of Health.) HAMBURGH. 2,595,557 371,374 2,224,183 By an official report, received from Dr. Gernett, offi cer of health, it appears that the cholera has subsided in Hamburgh, no new attack having occurred in th e th ree days preceding the report, which is dated October 4. The total cases for the city and territory amount to 531; the deaths to 277, or 52 per cent. ; and there are remain ing under treatment, 60. Upwards of five-sixths of the attacks took place in the lower parts of the town and marshy districts, about one-sixth only in the parts above the level of floods. In the new-built parts of the town, which have complete drainage, water-closets, &c., pro portionally very few cases have occurred. It is gratify ing to learn that the English sailors, who amount to about 800 and who suffered severely in 1849, have almost entirely escaped, only seven having been attacked, all of whom recovered. It is understood that a medical practitioner was appointed some time since to watch and aid the crews of English ships, by her Majesty's Go vernment. NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE. Deaths on the Bth of October : Cholera Diarrhoea Deaths on the 9th of October : Cholera Diarrhoea The total number of deaths from cholera and diarrhoea in Newcastle-upon-Tyne during the present outbreak has been 1,473. In the same period (viz., the first 39 days) during the prevalence of epidemic cholera there in 1831-2, the number of deaths was 267. The cases of diarrhcea discovered and brought under immediate treatment by the visitors at Newcastle amount 3,664. The cases approaching cholera, 239. The cholera cases so discovered have been 63 in num ber. Cholera corpses, 3. There have also been 15 old cases passing from diarrhcea into diarrhcea approaching cholera (two of which were relapses after treatment by medical officer) ; and 12 old cases have passed from a state approaching cholera to cholera—making the total number of cases of all kinds discovered and brought under treatment by the visitors from the commencement of the outbreak to the 9th inst. inclusive, 3,969.

The sanitary condition of this town is represented by Dr. Waller Lewis as just as bad in several particulars as Newcastle. Reiterated warnings have been given in vain for the removal of nuisances, and now there appears too much reason to apprehend that an epidemic outbreak is inevitable. At the last meeting of the Local Board of Health all the medical officers reported fresh cases both of diarrhoea and cholera, and on proceeding, on report of these officers, to inspect the infested districts, Dr. Lewis himself witnessed the death of two persons—one a fine young woman, aged 24, and another a child in an oppo site house, who expired a quarter of an hour afterwards ; and four doors he saw a man, the father of a family, in a state of hopeless collapse. Nothing had been at tempted to mitigate the foul condition of this locality. THE LATE .RAILWAY ACCIDENT IN IRELAND, In addition to the persons injured by the late dreadful accident, whose names have been already published, a Mr. Lowry, of Cumberland, and his two sisters were also sufferers on the occasion—one lady seriously, Mr. Lowry and the other lady slightly. They are all, how ever, progressing favourably, and are staying at the Shelburne Hotel, under the care of Surgeon Rynd. Another of the sufferers (Miss Pack), who had been pro nounced "out of danger," lies in a most precarious con dition. The surgeon of Stevens's Hospital states that her life is in imminent peril. Inflammation of the lungs has supervened on the injuries which she received in her chest, and the contusions and lacerated wounds on her legs have led to extensive inflammation, which threatens to assume a bad form. The following additional parti culars connected with this fearful catastrophe are fur nished by the Freeman of Monday morning : "We have learnt some additional particulars relative to the providential escape of Mrs. Latham Blacker and her two daughters, which is, perhaps, the most extraor dinary incident connected with this sad disaster. This lady and her children occupied the coupd of t he as placed the in a first p shock osi tioo of of t d h a e o collis i on, from andcarr carriage, ere which there received d therefore which escape seemed to be utter l y hopeless. Indeed, a w n h d e n a a o w n e h o examined the l etely i t coupd wa i n o d w o h m i t s h h e o y d7 w e t r h e s e i w t t h i n oh g, l e nofextthoeosmeaptasrtbmeienagt_cairtriwedaardiigffihotuilntttoo othoneoemiridedhleowofthteier li y ves co o u f ld th h e a r v a e b ilw e a e yn officialspreserved. ren d eThera the ex mannerlanati o no of their oneebicapeintelligible, but increases our wonder and admi ration at the extraordinary mode by which they were saved from instant destruction. The explanation is shortly this :—When the buffers of the goods engine dashed against those behind the coupd, the violence of the shock was so great that the carriage sprung up (to use the words of one of the witnesses) as high as the wires of the mag netic telegraph,' and, falling on the engine knocked off its funnel, and then rested on the smoke-box' in such a manner that the Misses Blacker, who were seated next the doors at either side, were thrown out upon the top of the smoke-box,' where they were subsequently found lying in a state of insensibility, but uninjured. Mrs. Blacker being seated nearer to the centre of the coupd, was more exposed to the force of the concussion, and consequently received a compound fracture of the leg. On inquiry at the Straffan station on Saturday, where she still lies, we were informed that she passed a good night, but has not yet been pronounced out of danger. She is attended by Surgeon Adams. "We have already mentioned the wonderfully narrow escape of Mrs. Barrington, who was found crushed into a corner and covered over with fragments of the broken carriage when her husband came to search for her. It is stated that, on hearing the frantic shouts of the pas sengers who were on the embankment that the goods train was running into them. Mrs. Barrington fell upon her knees for prayer, and this attitude alone saved her life. The next moment the side of the compartment was driven in with the utmost violence, and the seat op posite to that which she had occupied was forced up wards in such a manner as to form a covering and pro tection for her head. Had she remained sitting, this would certainly have struck her on the head or chest, just in the same manner in which several of the unfor tunate passengers were killed. It is a curious circum stance that the bracelets, reticule, and other small articles which were on Mrs. Barrington's person when the accident occurred were found lying among the dead bodies. " In the first account of this lamentable event, when it was impossible that all the details could be ascertained with perfect accuracy, it was erroneously stated that Sir Edward Kennedy was very active in his exertions to afford the sufferers relief. Doubtless, had Sir Edward Kennedy been present, his conduct would have been expected everything that could be—but he was not there ; and the credit given to him is due to his bro thers, Mr. Robert and Mr. William Kennedy, master of the Kildare hounds—the latter especially, who cannot be too highly praised for his kind, humane, and indefatigable exertions on the occasion. In the confusion o awful scene, our informant (Captain Collis) confounded that a d o e d d Mr. W. Kennedy with his brother Sir Edu,aw now r ectify. thus originated the erroneous statement which rectify. lamentable atibpleaenectisdiennthoasrpoitarlopwohrotehdave fferdf to subeperogroremsstilniigs favourably. d a m n s of ' the railway collision was upw "Mr. ith a N fr e a v c i t l o l eresdti limb,remains hotel, laid After the examination of attended e t it h de Impe rial edby D r . rea T u h m e e inquest e yesterday y the at viy,_ Naas.

The attention of the General Board of Health having been called by the coroner to an inquest just held by him, relative to certain deaths from cholera in York row, Pearson-street, Shoreditch, an inspector of the board was directed to examine into the state of the house and locality in which these deaths occurred. From the inspector's report, it appears that five deaths took place in one house in York-row, and two attacks in two other houses in the same row, which did not prove fatal ; that in this entire district there is a total want of proper drainage, and that in the particular instance in which these cholera cases occurred there were privies built up against the backs of the houses. In the house in whic h the deaths occurred, on which the inquest was held, the cesspool was full up to the floor, and in the adjoining house there was foul liquid matter , to the depth of nine inches, immediately under the floor boards. HIGHWAY ROBBERY BY A SOLDlER.—Yesterday after noon Messrs. Legh and Berridge, magistrates for th e borough of Windsor, were engaged for some time in the investigation of a charge of highway robbery with vio lence, brought by Charles Holmes, a labourer, residing at Sunning-hill, against Charles Shorrock, a man about 25 years of age, wearing the uniform of the 11th Regi ment of Foot, and supposed to be a deserter from the Winchester Barracks, where the depot of the 11th is now lying, the regiment being on foreign service. It appeared from the evidence that on Sunday morning, about 9 o'clock, the prosecutor was walking through the Great Park from Sunning-hill in the direction ofVVindsor, when he was overtaken by the prisoner, nearly a mile from Lakin's-gate. They entered into conversation, and walked some distance together, but before they arrived in sight of the gate, the prisoner suddenly turned round upon prosecutor, knocked him down, and while he was down, knelt heavily upon him, and attempted to take away his stick. stunned by the blow, the pro secutor was powerless, and the prisoner proceeded to rifle three of his pockets, leaving him senseless on the road. When prosecutor recovered, he saw the prisoner running away. The prisoner threw away his belt as he ran along. On examining his pockets prosecutor missed his tobacco-box, but some money secreted iu ano. ther pocket had escaped the search of the prisoner Prosecutor then got up and ran after the prisoner. One of prosecutor's teeth was knocked out, his face covered with blood, and it is evident that the attack upon him was of a murderous character. The prisoner had not proceeded far when he was encountered in the Sheet street-road by a labourer named May, who saw the pro secutor in the distance, and heard him cry out, " Stop him !" May then gave chase, succeeded in overtaking the prisoner, and gave him into the custody of Silver the police-constable. On searching the prisoner Silver found upon him the tobacco-box, which was identied by the prosecutor. Th e ev id ence b e i ng th us complete, and the prisoner declining to say anything in his defence, he was fully committed for trial at the n ex t assizes for the county of Bucks.

Messrs. Freud and Hamill, I the contractors, performed a rapid bit of work under adverse circumstances. The notices expiring on Thurs day midnight, the tolling of the clock at that hour was followed by the rapid strokes of picks and shovels. The whole trench from the Milton-road to the Ten-ace-pier I was opened before two p.m., and had not the van with the wire broken down on Shooter's-hill, a current would have been passed immediately after that time ; as it was, however, signals were exchanged with London and Deal before seven p.m. The office was only taken on Mon day, the 3d inst., and partitions were erected, altera tions effected, and the work completed in time for the opening at eight a.m, yesterday morning.

The Glasgow Herald gives a long account of the ship wreck of the Annie Jane, the most interesting portions el which we subjoin : It appears that by great efforts the vessel was got clear of a reef of rocks which jutted seaward, upon which the waves were breaking furiously, and where it was evident to all that, had the ship struck, not a soul would have survived to tell the tale. Having rounded the reef, the ship got opposite or into Vaternish Bay, a large in dentation with a sandy beach ; and, according to the account of one class of the survivors, she was there run ashore to escape the reef of rocks which formed the opposite entrance to the bay ; and, according to the opinion of others, she was forced in by the fury of the gale. Certain it is, that within twenty mi nutes after clearing the reef, and between twelve and one o'clock on the morning of the 29th ult., the ship took the ground with a fearful concussion. All the officers and crew were, of course, on deck at this fearful con juncture ; but there were also on deck a large number of male passengers, who held on by ropes and rigging, and with feelings of despair con teruplated their fate, as indicated by the dull outline of die land, and the roar ing of the surf an the beach. Mean while, the great ma jority of the passengers, including ail.' the women and children, were below in their berths, bu,t the striking of the ship gave them a fearful wakening. 11; any rushed on deck in a state of nakedness; wives clung to their hus bands, and children clung to both, some mut; e from ter ror, and others uttering appalling screams, a n , d eagerly shrieking, "Is there hope?" In fact, the seen.'• is des• cribed by the survivors as the most agonising which it could enter into the heart of man to conceive. The poor creatures had not long to wait for the catastrop;le. After the first shock was over the passengers rushe.d to the boats, three of which were placed between the mizenmast and the poop, and the fourth lay on the top of the cooking-house forward. The lifeboat had already been lost. But, as happens too commonly in such me lancholy cases, the boats were of no earthly use, for they were all fixed down and secured, or lay bottom up. Indeed, it is extremely questionable if there was any chance of the boats living in such a storm, even had the means of launching been at hand ; and the be lief is, that the passengers had rushed to them from the instinctive hope of obtaining relief thereby, or of pre venting the crew making use of them for their own special preservation. While the passengers were thus clustered round the boats, and within a very few mi nutes after the ship had grounded, she was struck by a sea of frightful potency, which instantly carried away the dense mass of human beings into the watery waste, and boats and bulwarks went along with them. It is the opinion of our informants that at least 100 of our fellow -creatures perished by this fell swoop: The wild wail of the sufferers was heard for a moment, and then all was still—at least, so far as this unhappy group was concerned. The great majority of the women and children, as well as some of the male passengers, remained below, either paralysed by terror or afraid that they would be washed away in the event of their coming upon deck. But their time also had come. The frightful thumping of the great ship, taken in connexion with her cargo of railway iron, must have immediately beaten the bottom out of her ; and while her fabric was in this weakened and disrupted state, another dreadful sea broke on board and literally crushed that part of the deck situated between the mainmast and the mizenmast, down upon the berths below, which were occupied by terror stricken women and sleeping children. They were killed rather than drowned, as was fully evidenced by the naked, mutilated, and gashed bodies which were afterwards cast on shore. The main and wizen masts went at the same moment. This second branch of the catastrophe took place within a very few minutes after the passengers and part of the crew had been swept away from the deck along with the boats. The most of the remaining seamen and passengers now took refuge on the poop, which was a very high one, and each suc ceeding assault of the sea carried away its victim or vic tims. In short, within one hour after the Annie Jane struck the remaining stumps of her masts went by the board, and she broke into three pieces. An additional number perished at this disruption ; and all the surviv ors remained on the poop, with the exception of 7 men, who had secured themselves on the topgallant forecastle. The poop fortunately floated well, and, as it was about high water, the wreck was drifted inwards by the wind and each heave of the sea, when it finally grounded about 4 o'clock a.m. The forecastle, with the seven men, came ashore much about the same time. The wreck had been observed from the island almost as soon as the day broke ; and, in the first instance, seven or eight of the Barra men (all who were in the neighbourhood at the tune) came down to render such aid as might be in their power. The remains of the mizenmast were still attached by the shrouds to the wreck of the poop, and by the help of the islanders it was placed so as to form a sort of bridge or ladder between the poop and the shal low water ; and, as the tide had now fully ebbed, all the survivors got on shore without much difficulty by seven in the morning. When mustered the survivors were found to number a total of 102, of whom one was a child, 12 were women, and 28 belonged to the crew, exclusive of the captain, who was also saved. When the poop was drifting ashore he secured himself upon its skylight. But the departed friends of the survivors were ashore before them, for the beach was literally lined by their dead bodies, as well as by innumerable fragments of the broken ship, and the light part of her cargo. None of the survivors estimate the loss of life at less than 350, and others consider it close upon 400 souls. The latter would be the case if 500 individuals, including children, were on board, as is generally believed. Almost all the cabin passengers perished, including Captain Munro, of Quebec, and his wife. Only one c hild was save d. It belonged to a humble Irishwoman, who, with her two children, was about to join her husband in America. She struggled hard to preserve them both, by binding one on her back, and grasping the other in her arms ; but, when the ship parted, the latter was dashed into the sea, and the other remained. Soon after reaching the shore the survivors repaired to a farm-steading, or cluster of houses, which was not far from the beach, and re paired their exhausted energies by rest. The women and officers occupied the houses, and the seamen and male steerage passengers lay down in barn, byre, and stable. There was no scarcity of provisions, for some barrels of beef and pork had been washed ashore, and the Barra people supplied potatoes. Then came the burying of the dead. Christian sepulture was deemed impracticable, for the churchyard was 10 miles distant, and there were neither carpenters to make coffins nor proper timber to fashion them from for th e numerous bodies which lay above the ground. Capacious pits were dug close to the lonely shore, and the poor sufferers were deposited therein, exactly in the state in which they were cast from the wreck---a great many, as we have said, be ing naked and mutilated. To this style of burial there were only two exceptions—viz., in the case of Mr. Bell, the first mate, and a French Canadian clergyman or priest, for whose remains roughly constructed coffins were made by the surviving carpenters from pieces of the wreck. In this way 260 bodies had been interred up to Monday last, when our informants left the island ; but a great many still remained unburied, and indeed every tide threw them up. The names of the men who have already come from Barra are : — Crew—James Boyd and James Marshall, both of Quebec ; Charles Carrol, Bay of Chaleur ; Thos. Gemmill, Joseph Miller, and Antonio Ligett, of Quebec ; Charles Burdon, of New York ; James Wood and Charles Burnet, of Dundee. We have not obtained the names of the other seamen, who are French• Canadians. Passengers.—John Kingston and James Kingston, brothers, from county of Cork ; Timothy Dineur, Cork ; Thomas Edmiston, Antrim ; Alexander M'Cormick, Armagh ; and Twearing, Cork. Such as were saved remained by the wreck until thtb tide ebbed, when they waded ashore, the water taking them nearly to the armpits. At daylight the bay was strewn with dead bodies to the number of nearly 300, greatly disfigured, many of them without limbs and heads and nearly all naked, thereby showing how instnnt must have been their death, and the fearful strength a the waters which in so short a time made such havoc. The emigrants were mixed English, Irish, and Scotch.' A hundred house carpenters and joiners from Glasgow were of the number—fresh, able young men : all of them have perished. They unfortunately had been in that part of the ship immediately above the car g o, which gave way first, and were among the first that were car ried off. Others perished in endeavouring to get out of the boats.

DEPARTURES FOR AUSTRALIA.—The departuros from the port of London for the Australian colonies .during the past week have been numerous, including several vessels of a large class. They have altogether ,com prised 14 :-7 to Port Philip, with an aggregate burden of 4,164 tons; 3 to Sydney, with an aggregate burd l / 4 31 2 of 1,734 tons ; 2 to Adelaide, with an aggregate bur den of 1,126 tons ; 1 to Swan River, of 381 tons ; and Ito Portland Bay, of 287 tons. Their total capacity was consequently 7,692 tons. The shipments of manu factures and ordinary merchandise continue large, but the rates of freight have further declined. As showing,. however, the caution now displayed, it is mentioned that not a single vessel has been put upon the berth for Aus tralia during the last few days. VIENNA.—The mercantile advices from Vienna of thy' 7th inst. show an increase of financial embarrassment in that city. The lowest rate of discount for the best bills was 7 per cent., and the Austrian Bank were refused three-fourths of those offered. The rate of exchange on London had at the same time advanced from 10.50 to 11. It is remarked that, notwithstanding the gloomy appearance of affairs, their termination in war was stil disbelieved. 50 50 20 50 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 142 1. 34i 1 all 50 40 25 25 812 a 100 - ' 100 474 174 all 100 St. St. St. St. 100 100 100 100 261 13i 20 20 all all 6A all 100 all 15 20 20 25 25 21s. 100 20 113 100 12i 12i 25 St. St. St. St. 20 59 i lit i 104 2 26 51 7i I 30 20 1 40 30 1 10 28A 50 50 100 20 25 100 10 5 33, 4 66 5i 6i li f )
