Stole of Liters's?, in Russia—ft is calculated
that Russia possesses three hundred and fifty writers
now living. The greater part beloog to the order
of the Nobility, and about an eighth to the Clergy.
The number of works in the Russian language in
1807, was computed at 4,000. The number now is
double that. Russian and German Gazelles ere
published at St. Petersburgh, Moscow, Riga,
Milieu, Revel, Abo, and Cason. There is also a
literary Journal published at Moscow in the Ras..
sian, and another at %Vilna in the Polone.e
language. Moscow contains nine public libraries
and ten printing houses; Petersburgh seven libra-
ries and fifteen printilig houses. Wilsia. Revel.
Dorpat, Charkoff, have also each a library and
Iwo or three printiog houses. The number of letter-
founderies throughout the whole extent of the
Ru.sien Empire does not amount to more than
eight or nine.

_.-.c enviers from Lisbon, by the Lady
Arabella packet. to the Bth instant, contain a con-
tradiction of the assertion of the French Paper.,
that Mr. W•ttu, the British Minis'er, having re-
ceived some offence, had quitted the Portuguese
capital. It is true that some misunderstanding had
arisen, but at the time the packet sailed it was
understood that the difference, whatever it might
be, had been arranged. Dispatches from Mr.
WAggp to Government were conveyed by the Lady
A►abella. At Lisbon tranquillity still prevail..
*bough there was an evident unessinros in the public

were of a very gloomy character.

On the 14th September the sloop Vigilant, of
New London, lying at a wharf at Charleston. was
struck with lightning. and her meat ahivered to
splinters, from the head to the foot. Another vessel.
the brig LI Validate, lying et the same wharf, was
also struck ; the heed of her maintup-mast (says the
Charleston Courier, is splintered a distance of live
or six feet. %there the fluid appears to hove glanced
and entered the head of the trysail-mast, and de-
scended through the centre to the bottom, where i•
escaped without doing Natter injury ; there is
scarcely any mark of the lightning im the exterior
of the trysail-most. Several persons who were em-
ployed about the wharf were knocked down, but
we do not learn that any were seriously hurt.

A match was run on Tuesday morning for a con-
siderable vom, by • young Gentleman, from the
corner of Paternoster-row, Ave-Maria-lane, to the
Obelisk, St. George's-fields, in ten minutes. Mr.
B. started at a quarter past six, ran down the
Broad-way along Water-line, and over Blackfii4nr
Bridge. where In crossed to the right side of the
Surrey-road, and reached the Obelisk at twenty-one
minutes and a half pest six, winning his wager by
three minutes mud • half. Teu to one on time.
It will he remembered that, shout a month ago,
• chaise belonging to Mrs. WORTHINGTON, of
Ulverston, returning from Lancaster, germs the
sands", with • sailor as a lossienger, was lost in •
quicksand. The driver use 11100 found dead near
the spot, and it was supposed that the sailor and
one of the horses had also perished; the other horse
had escaped to the shore. Some of the Jury who
sat upon the body of the unfortunate driver, re-
marked at the time that the head of the deceased
appeared much bruised, and it was discovered that
his watch and the money he had received at Lan-
caster for his fare, were missing ; but still the Jury
did not feel themselves warranted in bringing in
any other verdict titan that of " Found drowsed."
Circumstances, however, have come to light, tend-
ing to prove that the unfortunate man was basely
and diabolically murdered. The horse, supposed
to have been drowned, was last week found, without
his harness, near Ulverston, and a man, answering
the description of the sailor, was apprehended is
the saute neighbourhood, haring in hio..ilisiniesierso
the driver's watch. The supposed robber ersiesesoor'
darer has been eansositted to Lancaster CiestleZ

Messenger'. mission had been inipremed ob him,
he engaged an open hum, with seven men, to etinvey
him scruss toe Channel. This host started from the
harbour of Calais about 4 o'clock on Sunday after-
noon, and made towards Dover. The weather was
then floe, and the sea steady, though the wind was
somewhat control- ; hut after being out at sett
shout two hours, there came on • violent storm.
To make for Dover was found to be dangerous, as
well as useless; on which the party were compelled
to tack for Deal. The *hid blew uncommonly
and the men began to despair of even getting
• NW Deal as to be enabled to raise the ens-
tianisty signals for boats to coins nut. This object,
however, was eventually accomplished, after having
leen blown about for a lung time ; but on making
the usii4l signs, they were answered, by the tiring
jr Aims, that Ille boats could not venture out,
men% to the severity of the gale.
The boat kept out ut sea, and after beating
about for a considerable time, it laid to, mid sows
afterwards made for Ramsgate. It'ith great diffi-
culty it was enabled to make Ramsgate Pier, end
eventually to get within our harbour about eight
o'clock this worsting. The perilous situation of the
boot had been observed for some time, and it gave
great satisfaction to see it at last regularly making
for the Pier. The whole party, who hail thus beau
besting about in an open boat for sixteen hours,
while the ordinary passage occupi.s only three or
fitar, on landing were, as you may imagine, greatly
exhausted. The sea hail been beating over them
for hours, three or four of the meal occupying them-
selves in bailing out the water. The messenger
very anon afierwurds proceeded in a post-chaise fur
London, wet as he was.

HURRICANE AND SHIPWRECK.
About nine o'clock nn the evening of 'Nearby, the 2d
fastest, during a thick fog, the Spanish brig Providencia, of
about 150 tan% from St. Ander° fur Bristol, with wool, ran
on a melt cared the Hellweathera, at Scilly, and began to All
tlttt•t. About twelve, the rrew first saw St. Agnees light, and
*rod a gun, when a number of boats pet off, and saved all
wise sweeter board ; and st day-break next morning, almost
every boat and man that could be spared from the different
islands attended fur the purpose of getting out t►e cargo,
which was happily effected on the same day, end the whole
conveyed to Si. Mary's, bet in so damaged • .tale (through
exposure to the wind and ruip) that though originally worth
10,0001. its present value is not above one third of that sum.
Os Wednesday night, the boats still remaining round the
wreck were assailed by a violent gale, when the Hero, a Sue
large boat belonging to flryber island, and worth about
3001. was dashed to pieces; the men in her, amounting to
twenty-six, with difficulty escaped to a rock, where they re-
mained all night, exposed to lie severity of the storm. Ow
Thursday morning the wind moderated greatly ; but at half.
past two In the afternoon a violent hurricane ■rose almost
instantaneously, and did great damage on the different
Meads, blowing down hedges, unroofing houses (which in
some instances were laid completely bare) overturning corn-
stacks, fie. The large window at the east end of St. Martin's
church was blown out •ud deplorably shattered. Great
fears arc entertained fur the safely of the boat Nelson, (isr St.

fur Penzance a short lime previous to the cummewpmeat

ALBINO.— There is now living at Mill Creek,
in Berkley county, Virginia a child very nearly
resembling this description : it is a female, about
twenty mouths old, of dark Mulatto parents. Her
hair iv of • reddish colour, harsh and woolly; her
face much resembling a Neg►o's; rather light gray
or blue eyes; and a skin scarcely to be excelled in
fairness. Attempts were made to darken its co-
lour by exposing it to the rays of the sun ; but thou
proved ineffectual. Its cheeks sud lips are slightly
tinged with red, sou to resider the countenance by
no mean* disagreeable.—(Winchester Vie. Rep.)
A negro woman has been delivered of twins—one
black, the other mulatto. To all appearance the
children are of two fathers—one white, the other
black.—(Nichotold Enquirer.)
Friday evening • young man, in the dress of a
sailor, attempted to hang himself on the to of oue
of the trees in Christ's Piece, Cambridge, but a per-
son passing cut him down, and he has since perfectly
recovered. It appeared that he had offered to enlist
in the morning, but was refused as being too short.'
Friday night, • little before seven o'clock, as one'
of the Bath coaches was coming down from Lon--
don, the off wheel came in contact with the wear
wheels of the Cheltenham coach, which was stile
to town. The concueston was so great as to over-
turn thl former coach, which was full inside and
nearly full out. An unfortunate woman, on whom
the coach full, was very much hurt. Several others
were more or less injured. The horses of the Chel-
tenham coach, which► was not upset, having broken
the pole from the coach. ran off therewith, at
full speed, but were stopped et Colebrook turn-
pike. The Cheltenham coachusea, we hear, was
most seriously hurt.—(Both Journal)

Mi. Justice BATLEY said the Oispilliffilii ataisld
fur Saturday week, end it was uccerliugly so hied;
LANGRIDOS V. dRRTILLi.
This was an ictimi which was tried before the
LORD Cote? JUSTICE, when a verdict was tittered
for the Plaintiff, subject to the opinion of the Court
on a point reserved.
Mr. HILLER, in support or the verdict, stated
the facts. It was ati Action of assunipsit, brought
erratum the Defendant as agent of the 011111•111 ,rl. a
Norwegian vessel called the Carolina .Matilda, car
the remount of demsges dune by that vessel In a
ship belonging to the Plaintiff called the Zenobia,
winch ship was run down by the Carolina Matilda
in her lounge down the river Themes. As soonas
the Plaintiff became acquainted with the accident
he commenced proceeding, iii the Cowet of Ad-
miralty, and the Carolina Matilda was &tanned at
Gravesend. The Defendant, anxions that the
vessel should not be detained, under took to the
amount of 180/. for any damage which the Zenobia
had sustained, which, on investigation, should ap-
pear to be caused by the blameable conduct of the
Carolina Matilda. The Plaintiff suffered the
vessel to proceed, and on bringing.his action had
a verdict, which he (Mr. Puller) user appeared to
sustain. The objection taken by the Defendant
was fronded on 52d George 111. and sec. 30, which
regulated the pilotage of vessels in die nver, and in
canal voyages. The Defendant contended, that by
that Act owners were exempt where a regular pilot
wits on board ; and in this instance there was a re•
gator Trinity-house pilot on board the Caroline
Matilda.
Mr. Justice BATLEY inquired if there had not
'been two cases decided in the Common Pies. on
this point, and whether he (Mr. Puller) would not
• bare to contend for the overthrow of both these
'eases? if so, it would be desirable that the argu-
ment should stand over till the Court was full.
Mr. PULLER said he should certainly have to
touch these two cases; but it was pot alone 3
overturning them that he hoped to succeed. T
present was distinguishable from Stage cases in
two respects, first, he should contend that the
voyage on which the Carolina Matilda was proceed-
ing was not such a voyage as the Act of 52d
George ill contemplated ; and further, even if it
were, and notwithstanding there was a regular
pilot on board, the undertaking given by the Dg-
fendent rendered him liable to the amount of IGO/.
Mr. Justice BATLEY said, as the argument weut
to touch decided cases it had better stand over till
the Court shoti!rl be full.
The argument accordingly stands over to a fu-
ture day.
