MELANCHOLY AccmlxT AND Lie or Ftvg
LlYlEL—Yastertlay morning • 'melancholy solidest accursed
by tbe upeettion of a gain smack is Kyles of Bute, by
which five persons are suppoesd to have lost their lives.'
All that we have been yet able to pther is very map%
and what we have got hie been oommaaicated by Donald
11`11wheeney, fisherman, belonging to Glasgow. one of the
men who wee saved, and who arrived here yesterday
evening Per Wawa The mask was purchaaed
lately from a fisherman belonging to Loch Bonn,
by Mr. William Wacker, fish merchant ben. end
wee engaged in buying up fish in the- Kyle*
of Bate. Yesterday morning was very stormy, sad the
smack, with eleven or twelve persons oa board, an and
lads, and having some 18 bona el herrings on board, was
knocking about off Calle, in the 11,71 s of Bute, waiting to
put she AA on board an inoomiag steamer, when she
was suddenly upset in a squall, hlUd, and went dew's,
leaving all on board scrambling for their lives. There
was a small boat, but in the scramble it was up-
bet. Some clung to theidaating boxes of fish, and after
koockieg about in this way for more than an hour
were picked up by skiffs which came to their soliatance.
Hoplurk of le.rp' skiff was first on the spot, and picked up
M`Bwhethey, who had contrived to save a lad gamed
Robert Gallacher, • nephew of the owner of the smack,
and Archibald Bleak, belonging to Torbert. On the whole,
seven are reported to have been picked up by the skiff..
while five or four at least have to • certainty perished. Of
these only one belongs to Greenock that we are aware °l—
amely, William Gallachor, egad twenty-owl year;
youngest son of the owner of the smack, and who was only
married a few weeks ago. The can of the previous owner
of the smack is said to be among the dtherned.—Ziorth

A NOVEL Singe or Face.—Yesterday at the
Hampstead Police court a respectable-looking young man
named Janus Skeggs, alias Welteee gad Stanley, was
finally examined before Mr. Marshall and Mr. Prance,
charged with obtaining money wider false pretences. The
prisoner, an apprentice to a map engraver, had adopted a
very artful mode of levying omainbutioro on the public.
He had waited on a number of persons informing them that
he had heard at Lea-bridge station throe men arranging to
commit burglaries in their bonsai. The primmer when
taken into custody admitted that there was so tratb is
the statemeets he had made. When before the magistrates,
he said be was sorry for what to had done ;he did not ask
for the money. The chairman committed him for trial oe
four separate charm lof obtaining money wider false pre-
tersest. The primmer had, he said. prooseded in a very art-
ful manner by Dot asking for money, bat took it from the
parties ; and it would be for ajury to say whether he had
act broken the letter of Maslow.
THE CRAMLINOTON STMEIL —.otl Tuesday after-
noon a detachment of the 61th Regiment arrived in New-
castle from Maacheater, to be in maser to assist ia pre-
earring order during the eviction of the coition from their
houses at Cromlington. The soldiers are under the coup
mend of Captain Ryan, Lieutenant Brooke, and Saloon
Ward, and number about 100. They carry make*
sad are equipped for the work which they may have
to perform. The men strived about 1 o'clock, and plied
arms upon the Carlisle platform until arnagementa were
made as to the order of their proceeding. It woe rather
singular that during this time the miners who bad been
committed to the Northumberland Quarter Sessiose for
triad, on the charge of being riotous on Friday, entered the
station in the oasiody of the police, and took their depar-
ture by the north train for Morpeth. The military eon
left the Cravat Station for the Barracks, which are situated
on the Barrack-road, fa this town. They may wait there
until any fresh signs of disturbance are manifested at Cram-
lingtoo, or be directed to leave by the train which may
again canny the " candy men" to the some of potion. The
intelligent and leading men awng the miners deprecate
say acts of violence on the part of say of their Dumber, and
hope that the remaining bovines, may be peaceably ma-
naged. It may be worth while to notice that at the lout
meeting hold to aoasider the question of going in to work
