Bityartwav ca.—The equinoctial gales have commenced, and ,n
etc test and te3d inst. they proved extraordinary violent from tee
southward and westward, which occasioned a heavy pressuse of the
sea against the Breakwater, at Plymouth. During the former da►
his Majesty's schooner Sea leak, the Thalia East Indiainan, Pro-
vidence coal brig, and Pilgrim merchant sloop, of about 60 tons,
were in the Sound, the two first vessels being moored in good births,
the Providence nearly where the unfortunate Jasper lay, and the Pilgrim
close to tire Melattipus Shoal, in the most exposed part of the Sound,
and not far from the spot whence his '•laiesty-'s late schooner Tele-
graph began to drive ashore. They all nide out the storm in snide ,
and when it had abated, the brig and sloop went intothe Catwater.
On the 9.3 d the vessels in the Sound were his Majesty's ship Spartan,
the Sea I .ark, ;And the Thalia, which sustained the gale with thesame
ease as before, and report highly of the sheltering protection afforded
by the breakwater. Notsithatanding the fury of the waves, not a
single stone of the finished part of this structure has been injured err
displaced. The raising of the western arm already begins to have
the most beneficial influence on the anchorage, particularly from half
ebb to half- fluod.
Aguas. ic Exenostow.—One of the most ludicrous exhibition;
wok piece on the Hirer Thames on Monday afternoon that a c ever
remember. It had been announced and placarded round the metro •
polls for some days past, that Mr. Usher, the Clown at the Coburg
Teratte, intended, previous to the theatrical performances of the
evening, to make two excursions, one on water, the other on /and ;
the aquatic excursion consisted of a tub with four geese attached to
it, to go from Westminster bridge to Waterloo bridge. The lan•i
one, a chaise drawn by four white tom cats, from Waterloo bridge
to the theatre. About four ti clock, the stab being launched emus t'.'
yard of Mr. Nelson, the Water Bailiff, Mt. Usher immediately sear-
ed himself in it. 'Pe geese were splendidly decorated with sarions
coloured ribands; but, not being used to such confinement, repeat-
edll• entangled themselves with each other, till the adventurer was
obliged to he towel down tome distance boa boar. On reaching les
destination, a general and loud huz.za took place. The poor grei7
appeared at this time nearly exhausted with fatigue. Of the latter
eaeurslon we can say but little ; it was more defective than tile forme-.
However. Mr. Usher's friends did rot disappoint him of his ride;
fur, on finding his cats proving unruly, they instantly mounted hen•,
chaise and all, on their shoulders, and carried him in triumph to tlrr
stage door of the theatre, where he wa.3 lauded without the least inju-
ry. The novelty of the scene caused a vast concourse of perverse
collect together ; the river was completely covered with boats; est-
minster and Waterloo brAget presented a grand appearance, front
the immense number of spectators who had stationed themselves upon
them. The road leading to the theatre and the New-cut was to
the onged, that it was hardly possible for a horse or chaise to pass for
some hours. We do not remember to have observed so numerous
an assemblage collected on any preceding occasion, esceptieg the time
the Prince Regent, accotnoettied by the Dukes of York and Welling-
toneopetied Waterloo bride.
PIIOOttES3 OF A POUNO OF COTTON..-The follGNing
ae-
count of,one peeled w•eig it of antiftetured cnttoa w h show the im-
e °nonce of Cie trade to the country in a very conspicuous manner.—
There was sent of for London. I-etely, from Paisley. a small piece
of muslin, about one pound weight, the history of which is ra follows t.
The woel came front the East Indies to London ; from London it
went into Lancashire. where it was manuf.etured into yarn; from
Nlancliceter it was sent to Paisley, where it wan woven ; it was sent
to Ayrshire next, where it was tambottred ; afterwards it was con-
veyed to Dumbarton. where it was hand-sewed, and again retuned
to Paisley. when it was sent to a distant part of the country of Ren-
frew, to be bleached, and was returned to Paisley; whence it was
sent ro Glaegow, and was finished ; told from Glasgow was sent per
coach to London. It is difficult precisely to ascertain the time taken
to bring this article to market ; but it may be pretty near the truth to
reckon it 3 years from the time it was packed in India, till in clotn it
arrived at the merchant's werenouse in London ; whither it urns%
have been conveyed 5.000 miles by sta. oral 090 by lend, and cal-
tributed to reward no leas titan ISO people, whose services were

cotton, and by which the value has been taleanced ?Otto pee eent.—
W hat is said of this one piece descriptive of no inconaiderable part
of the trade. _ . . - . . . .

We have received a letter from a friend now in Paris, in which he
gives us some curious information respecting several individuals,
natives of Cogland and I-eland, who although posse.sed of otsider-
able property, Face carried it all with them to the Continent, where
they intend tc.• reside, with a view of evading the payment of just
debts contracted in their own country. This tiro t fraudulent cords t
has for some time past excited a great degree of alarm among num-
bers of people who considered their property as lost. We are happy,
however. in being enabled to state, un the amino ity of our Cone-
pontlent, that a decision has lately been made. width may lead to
conslueores highly favourable to the claims of the irtjuted et editor
A case lately MOO: befJle a French Court, and nine Judges decided
against threz, that it a British subject had obtain, a a judgment in
his own country against another British subject. he can seize the
. goods of the defendant in France. We ay infonurd, that, in con-
a. pierce of this decision many English and Irish, who were figuring
away in Paris, upon the property of ethers, have gone of to Switzer-
land. Our Correspondent gives an account of one individual, whom
name, however, we must riot mention until we teceive further con-
firmation r-specting the fact, who sonic years ago lived here in a
splendid style. who has taken the whole of his great fortune along
with him to France, trig.:ther with the sum of 130.0001. which was
the property of a near relative. lint the chief claimant has lately bud
a petition pres.nted to Louis XV 111. by the English Ambrustdpr,
setting torth the extreme hardship of the care, and requesting liberty
to attach the person and property of the individual who had possession
of his all. We expect that this Affair will lead to some very curio-u
and interesting result.—Provincial Pipe re
A trial fora libel, Itippinghant v. Liman, took place in the Assize

tiff is well known here. having delivered lectures on clo-ration end
public speaking at the Stirmy Institution. The defendant is t.le
printer and publisher of the Chrotrick, the jouroal iu

though oprwell by two eminent counsel, who were rut:titled fot •.;:e
def.mtlant. The daniages were laid at. i and • verdict fr

became the object of the- pmseention on account of hi: refusing to
deliver up. the real writer. The object of the libel was chielly to im-
peach the talent: of the plaintiff, but did nut canto:a any attack on
