The Industry, Captain Boddy, from Lond. it
Hartlepool, arrived in the south roads at Lowest:At
on Saturday morning. The master reports that Wil-
liam Cook, an ordinary seaman, of Wells, while fur-
ling the maintop gallant sail, below. the Nore, lost
his hold from the violence of the gait', fell from the
yard upon
the deck, and was killed on the spot. The
body has been landed. William Denthari and four
hands belonging
to the smack Eagle, o. London,
picked up by the schooner Unity, of Portsneouth, 10
miles S.E. of the Spurn Light, were landed on
Saturday morning in a destitute condition. The
Unity had her decks swept, and the smack's boat
ord fishing gear were lost. The hark Bsllairs, Bee'l-

nicked up by the schooner Isabella, of Folkestone,
which landed em at Lowestoft on Saturealy morn-
ing in a destitute condition. They will be forwarded
to their homes by Mr. Cole, the :honorary local
agent of the Seipwreeked Mariners' Society. The
brig Rocket, of Sunderland, was spoken
with
on Friday by a local smack ; she had both
her masts carried. away, and was being towed
by an Ostend smack to that port. Tho
tide on Friday rose at Lowestoft an unusual height,
and some damage was done to the haibour weeks.
On Saturday the wind continued fresh, and the har-
bour was full of vessels more or less disabled. At
1.20 p.m. a telegram was received from Admiral
Fitzroy directing the south cone to be again hoisted.
The intelligence which reached Shields on Satur-
day leaves no doubt that there has been a vary
severe loss of Tyne ships during the late fearful
gale. A telegraphic message reached that town on
Saturday that the Scipio, of North Shields, was
lost, but that her crew were saved. The survivors
of the crew of the brig U. G., which was lost 011 the
Trinity Sands on Thursday, arrived at Shields on
Saturday night. A telegram reached Newcaotle-
quay on Saturday afternoon that the large seem
steam collier Tom John Taylor had put into a York-
shire roadstead, three of her crew having been washeci
overboard. The master had his leg broken. The,
greatest anxiety prevails with regard to the safety of
the 20 laden ships that were foolishly sent to sea on
Wednesday night from the Tyne just before the
terrific gale came on. Another storm warning was
hoisted in Shields harbour on Saturday afternoon
that a gale might be expected from the southward,
and the warning had not been up half an hour when
heavy squalls came away from the southward..
Saturday night was more settled.
On Saturday, at Plymouth, the weather con-
tinued rough. At 9 p.m. it moderated. The wind
was southerly. Many merchant ships, more or less
damaged, had obtained shelter in the Sound. The
schooner Lioness, Capt. Taylor, from Zante for Ply-
mouth and London, arrived on Friday ; the master
and one man had been waahed overboard and.
washed back again. Among other arrivals on Friday
were the Norwegian brig Albion, Capt. Crawford,
from Gottenburg (Falmouth last) with deals and
iron for Mers el-liebir, near Oran, with loss of sails
and part of deck load; the Norwegian ship gorge,
Capt. L. Gjersten, from Akyabg with rice, slightly
damaged ; the Prussian bark Amazon, Capt. Zill-
mer, from Sulina for Antwerp, leaky, with loss of
sails and bulwarks ; the Netherlands brigantive
Femona, Capt. Haddeman, from Rotterdam for Lis-
boa, with loss of sails, boat, and bulwarks, and rud-
der damaged ; the Italian bark Ebe, Capt. Largane,
from Card.:ff with coal for Buenos Ayres, with loss
of foreyard ; the Oldenburg brigantine Friediriehe,
Capt. G. Pooltca. from Rio Taniero, with coffee ; and
the British brig Little Glory, ()apt. Grigg, from
Patras, with currants; Among the arrivals on.
Saturday were the Italian ship Emilie Eloise, Capt.
Seopinich, from Cardiff with coal for Malta, having
lost mainmast and mizenrsas, 150 miles west of
Scilly on the 2d inst. ; the Italiao brig Atalante,
Capt. Gurguilo, from S wansea with .coal for Naples ;
the Norwegian bark Phoenix, Olsen, front
Cardiff with coal for Colon, with lo
saf boats,
bulwarks, &e. ; the Bremen bark Arian,. Capt. Le-
vengen, from Bremen, for Havannah ; and the
Netherlands three-masted schooner De Hoop, Capt.
Van Duyn, from Rotter,lam for Singapore,. with
loss of sails, water casks, bulwarks, &e. The ship
Gertrude, which passed Plymouth from London'
for
Bombay, put back to the Sound on Saturday
evening.

an earthquake had taken place. The sound of
the explosion was also distinctly heard at Tar-
bert, notwithstanding a strong westerly gale which
was blowing at the tine. There would probably
be three or four men in the corning-house when the
accident occurred, all of whom have lost their lives.
Had the weather been calm, the probability is tlost.l.,
seeing the buildings are placed at considerable
distances from ono another, the disaster would have
been confined to the corning-house. As it was,
however, fragments of burning wreck from that
structure were carried to leeward, and in conse-
quence, after the lapse of a minute ur two, the dust-
house, press-house, and glazing-houses, abovo-
mentioned, exploded in rapid succession. In the
interval between the first and second explosions,
the workmen employed in the dusthouse and glazing-
houses managed to get out of doors, and took shelter;

of his genius outstrips their powers of comprehension. The
fact is, that all Bethoven's works, both early and late, are
the natural products of the different phases of an intellect
which knew no bounds to its progressive advancement ;
and, as a necessary consequence, a larger knowledge of the
art generally, and longer special study of the works indi •
