THE LIVERPOOL PACKET FROM NEW YORK.
Some apprehensions are entertained for the safety of th,z.
Liverpool, a 4 the ship Illinois, which sailed from New
York the day after her, arrived at Liverpool on the 12th
instant, and the ships London and Panthea, that gaited.
from New York the 24th ultimo, nine days after the Li=
verpool, have arrived, the former off Falmouth on the 17th
instant, and the latter at Liverpool on Monday. The Liver-
pool was to replace the Albion, which was unfortunately lost off
Kinsale, and so many of the passengers and crew drowned.; on
the 22d of April last. The annexed extract of a letter from
New York notices the, sailing of the Liverpool, with other par-
ticulars :

" NEI7 YORX, JULY 15.—The following are the names of
the passengers in the new packet ship Liverpool, Capt. Lee, which
left the Hook yesterday at half-past 12 o'clock for Liverpoo. '
to wit., Mr. N. T. Heard and family, of New York ; Mr. Min
Simpson, of London; Mr. Robert Mathers, of Liverpool:
Mr. William Christie, of, Jamaica ; Mr. Samuel Wright, of
Savannah ; Mr. William Castle, of Montreal ; Mr. Thomas
Wright, of England ' • and Mr. G. A. Northedge, of.gen-
treal. The Liverpool is a fine ship, on her first voyage :
her model is. greatly admired, and her areornmolitiOn.s. a-r;
etliial to any thing of the kind we ever saw."

CORONEa'S INQ, EsT.-An inquest was held. on
Tuts'lay evening, at the Duke's Head, Queen-street; Efigc-'
'ware-road; before TitpiffAs S'TIRLING Esq., Coroner for the
, County of- ;Middlesex, on the body of a fine young woman,
named MARY WALL. The deceased had joined 'with a, few
!bends in a dance, at the hotise of her parents, in Cato-street,
on Sunday evening, and feeling herself suddenly overcenie- by
the heat, rat down in a chair and fainted. Her anxious friends.
in the midst of their agitation, instead of removing her into the
air, placed her sitting m a chair, in a Small parlour, where, the
company eagerly pressing close about her, she experienced
succession of violent fits for the space of about twenty minutes,
when she expired. Verdict—" Died by the visitatiou of God."
On Thursday elening, at Falmouth, at abiiut
half-past nine, the atmosphere became suddenly enlightened,
of. a bluish colour, and a body of fire was observed to shoot
in a southerly direction; it was apparently about the sire of,
a man's hat ; it fell in the bay, near a boat, in which some per-
sons were fishing ; continued on the surface about 6 seconds,
and then sank. The water was thrown about with conderable
force, and continued to bubble some time after i,disappeared.

Assizes rt Atby, the Jury who were-impannelled

were locked up in a Jury-room all night; and

twelve asses, each drawinga car. with a kish in if.
Into a kish each Juror was politely. handed,.and
the asses having been drawn up in a line the ca-
valoaJe moved' on in slow and solemn procession
to. the verge of the county, amidst the .shouts 'and
Cheers of the populace.—(Carlow Po?)

In the actual dislocated condition of the Go-
vernment, from the loss of one of its most impor-
tant functionaries, ,the suspense and anxiety of
those.who take an inte,rest in politics find relief
in.a succession of • conjectures, as to• the manner
in which the present vacancy, and' certain others
which are expected to follow it, will be•filted up..
It. is Mated. by some of the partiisans of Ministers
—.but we do not. pledge
,ourselves, for the truth
of the statement—that the Duke of Wellington
is to attempt.the eifice of Foreign Secretary.—
His Grace,knOws,how, with an:a:nu at his COM..
mand, to make this nation truly formidable to
her enemies ; but. it is-only candid to acknow-
ledge our suspicion, that.he may not be equally
well qualified to'increase the number, or to rivet
the affections, of her friends. M a time also, when
the peace and happitu of Europe may.be more or
less affected by the measures•about -to be adopted
by this country, we are not quite sure how far
the_Duke of Wellington ought to be made the
organ of the Cabinet----we mean if the Cabinet has,
much. regard to the smooth and easy. working of
that species of rnaoceavrein which its living mem-
bers have long shown their delight, and their lost
representative his proficiency. \Ve do not object
to the :failure of a system of foreign politics which
no ,friend of liberty or of humanity can excuse.
Far from it. We-only think how hard run the
Ministers must be, if' they commit the success of
it to th€., :Duke of Vellington. Another -ap-
pointment. which is talked about must be pre-
ceded by another death .or resignation—we
mean the promotion • of Mr. Huskisson to
that place now occupied by Mr. •Vansittart.--
in that case what becomes of the leader-
ship ? It must, we suppose, be divided--Mr.
Peel to talk about politick.. and Mr. Hus-
kisson concerning all that belongs to figures! In
case of a subsidy to a foreign poWer—if such a
thing were now imaginable—or of any mixed
question of policy and finance, we should like
to hear by what principles of casuistry the as-
signment of labour would be regulated between
the two Right llonoUrable Gentlemen. Would
they neutralize each other, and both sit mute ?
It were a doubt ,worth resolving by- the, pre-
sumptive Chancellor of the Exchequer.—One
fact is taken for granted by the best informed
rnennamely, that, until his Majesty's return
from the North, there will be no definitive ar-
rangement.
