PRIACE EDIPARD's ISLAND.

CHARLOTTE TOWN, AUG. -25.—The Sophia Brig,
PASSMORE, froM Bristol,• arrived on the ibth inst.
with a Mr. NOREIS,' his family, and other settlers,
in number 23. They may prove a valuable acquisi-
lion. On the 2ist, the Elizabeth, Mit.Ns, arrived
from North Britain, with seventy-six settlers.—
These latter came without money or provisions, and,
it is said, will be followed by three Ships .more of
the same description. It is melancholy to
that poor people should be so deceived, 'as they are
taught to imagine that they are coming to a land
flowing • with milk and honey—and on their arrival
cannot find a house to shelter them. But High-
landers are better calculated to meet such hardships
than any other people. In a tew days they -disap-
pear, and burrow like rabbits' in the woods, or mix
with their clans.

Yesterday arrived the .F,lizateth, SHIPLEY, from
Liverpool,, and the Hope, BALDWIN, cleared for
London.

A few days since, died, of a deep decline, brought
on by misfortunes, Air. GaiNLy, of Scotland, a
young man of stria- honour and integrity, whose
fate was peculiarly' severe. He never recovered an
injury which he received last October on his arrival
here in a boat with a Mr. BAINi, who was unfor-
tunately drowned.

The account of the daring attempt CO rob the
house Of Countesg MORTON, in Park-street, en
"'Wednesday evening, given in our Paper .Of yeSter-
day, attracted, during the Whole of the afternoon,,
great concourse of people round the watch-house,
*tit Mount-street, to which the two wotinded rob-
bers had been carried, many expe&ing to See them
brought out to undergo an examination at Marl-
-borough-stteet -Police Office.. Strangers, however,
were disappointed, the Prisoners being in a danger-
bus state. One of them, who had been shot in the
arm, underwent amputation close to the socket of
his. shoulder. The other, who" had his leg btoketi,
and whose name is :hones Suirklq, but three weeks
liberated from Newgate, and is the reported Captain
of a numerous gang of housebreakers, i's also in a
dangerous state.

. ,
On Wednesday evening, about eight o'clock;, a
gang of robbers entered the house of Lord
131IIERSII, in St. Jaines's-place, and took away a
quantity of linen. They escaped undiscovered, dur-
ing the absence of the seryant, . ,
