STORM AT QREENOCK.
Prom the Glasgow Courier, March 4.1
Courier Office, ha(/.past One o'C'lo:lc.—Copy of a letter from
Greenock, deed this morning

ORLENOCK, Marto' 4.-IThe effects of last night's storm
bas been most severely felt here.

The ship Ann; of Livemool, brake n.drift from the back
of the quay, and tore the shed on the east end of the Vostom-
house quay all along .as she drove from thence ; droVe on shore
on Cartidyke Bay, where she now lies with a schooner that
drove from the roads.
The Essequibo, lying across the end of the quay, cast away
'her stern.fast, by which means she escaped Unhurt.
The Betsey brig broke adrift. from Steel and Co.'s building
yard, drove across the bank, anti is on abate above the Hill of
'Ardmore.
The Margaret Bogle, is on the highest part of the bank op.
polite Port.Wasgow, with her rudder unshipped, and other
damage ; she drove from Gourock.bsy. •

At Port-GlasgoW, the Nestor, Crawford, parted her bow.
fast and swung round, but appears .to have received no da-
mage. The Thames has her stern entirely stove in.
great number of logs are adrift in the River, and scattered
along the shore on both sides.

Yesterday afterpoon, about half-past four
o'clock, the Mike of YORK arrived in town from
a visit to t h K i NICI at Brighton.

Wednesday, at two o'clock, a Cabirwt Council
was held at the. Foreign Office, which was at.
tended by all the Cabinet Ministers. The Cabi-
net Ministers continued iii deliberation till about
a quarter past four.

On
Sutulay afternoon, In one and two
o'clock, a crowd assembled in front of the diSseeting room in
Duke-atreet, which was attacked on the morning of Siiturday,
. and the doors burst open, and every thing it contained destroyed.
The Superintendent and a number of the officers of ,Police
were immediately on the spot, and the appearanee of the
mob was such that a detachment of the 77th regiment was
sent for. On their approach the crowd dispersed, but in a short
time thereafter they assembled in Portland-street, and burst
open the outer gates of another dissecting-room, when they
were immediately checked by Mr. Hartle, with a partyof the
77th. They then made
.a sortie to a dissecting-mom in col.
lege' Street and finally, between seven and eight o'clock,
they made their appearance in front of Doctor Jeffrey's
Laundry and the College, suspected to be a . diesecting-roorn.—
Dr. Jeffrey immediately opened his door, and addressed them,
inviting a few of the respectable amongst their number to come
in and examine his house and prernise.s, which, after some so-
licitation by the Superintendent of Police, were inspected by
about a dozen of them, who immediately reported their satis-
faction to the assembled crowd, which soon after gradually
dispetsed.—(Ght.tgow Centier, March 4.)
PitovEttß3.—A Member of the house of Com-
mons in the reign of ELTZAUET it, made a speech entirely corn -
posed of the most homely proverbs. The subject was a bill
against - double payments of book-debts. Knavish trades-
men were then in the habit of swelling out their book-
debts with those who took credit, particularly to their younger
customers. One of the members who began to speak, "for very
fear shook, " and stood silent. This nervous orator was fallow-
ed by a blunt and true representative of the famous governor
of Barataria, delivering himself thus :—" It is now my chance
to speak something, and that without humming or hawing. I
think this:is a good law. Even reckoning makes long friends.
As far goes the penny as the penny's master. Vigilantibut non
dorntientibns jliTO subvenittne. Pay the reckoning over-night,
and you ahidl not be troubled in the Morning. If ready
money, be measure pnblica, let every one cut his coat according
to his cloth. When his old suit is in the - wane, let stay
ttill that his money bring a new suit in the increase."
A-Hint to Servants ty" all Work.--In a Sussex
paper a few days since appeared an advertise
ment for " a servant of all work," with an N.B.
intimating that no snuff-taker would be' eligible."
THISTLES.--A Gentleman noticing the treat
number of thistles on the poor lands in this country, states
that in Germany they are used as food for horses, first under-
going the process of being beaten in a sack' until the
prickles are destroyed ; horses will then eat them greedily.
The writer states that he witnessed,' a fete years since, the
very great and good effects of this 'boil on a German cavalry
regiment in the British service ; the horses of which were
brought from a very poor state into good condition in a very
short space of time. Thistles, it is to be observed, have con-
siderable:diuretic effects on horses.
Motu. GAMBLEll9.—Yesteratti afternoon ano-
ther grab was made in the notorious No. 33. Informations
having been given, a regular sortie took place from Bow-
etreet ; and as the doors were strongly barricadoed the officers
were at Aide for some time. Determined, however, to curet
their object and execute the warrant with which they were
charged, the Police broke in the pannel of the outward .door,
anti effected an entrance; when the scene assumed ail the rigi-
tation and manoeuvres of former experiments. Eleven Gentle-
men were eventually put into roaches, and conveyed to.the above
office.

As to O'erturn the empire of the sun,
And lay the world *t waste ere Spring begun,
As to revenge thy dying Winter's cause,
And scourge the kingdoms breaking front his laws,
Comes roaring March ! and bids the earth obey,
Or try with him the triumph of the day ;
Then, with a voice, once heard, is ever known,
Calls up a thousand winds around his throne,
And on he drives ! with fury at its height,
And, unrebuk'd, displays resistless might
Again he hurls the tempest of his power,
Fresh winds invokes for every coming hour.
Yet as regardless of his fiery mood
The sun, at times, pours out a radiant flood,
Anti earth, though suffering front the tyrant's farce,
smiles fisiNutinutent 4(10 wratilul eAmese ;
While he, with very rage and Unttlak'd thirst,
Renders each effort weaker than the lira ;
Till wasted—spent—again his strength he tries,
And crushing all who fought his hattle-lics.

[MORNING CHRONICMI
'the Ultras seem at length to, have conjured
up:a spirit which they may find it difficult to
allay. Taking counsel from their cunning, they
bethought themselves that the exclusion of
Manuel far the Sessien was preferable to his ex-
hultion, as by the former they would not only
et themselves from the presence of the Mem-
ber of all others the most formidable to them,
from his talents and intrepidity, but at the same
tune' deprive the Electors of La Vend6e of the
power either to re-elect him, or to elect some
other individual obnoxious also to power. Un-
fortunately for them the intrepidity which
rendered them anxious to get rid of Manuel,
gave a character of peculiar difficulty to the task
ca expelling him. His speech from the Tribune
was truly worthy of the occasion, and while it
,must rally round him every heart in which
there remains the least vestige of regard for the
Laws, it must have filled the enemies of Consti-
tutional Government with dismay. •

II I do not," he says, " expect an act of justice; it is to one
of,vengeance that I resign myself. I, profess respect for. the
4iMberitiCA on which they are founded, and trecognize their
power no longer from the moment when, in contempt of the
Law, they mop powers which it has not given them. In such
3 state of things, whether submission be an act of prudence I
know not, tut this .1 know, as soon as resiqance is a right it
becomes a linty. It is a duty, especially for those who, like us,
ought best of all to know our rights I. and, for mc, I should owe
this example of oarlike to those worthy citizens of La Vendee
Who have giVen France so noble an example of courage and in-
dependence, in a second time giving me their votes."
Acting up to the letter of this bold defiance,
he. disregarded the iniquitouti act of a majority,
who have covered themselves with eternal in-
fatny, and appeared next day in the midst of his
-.enemies. The French tition, peculiarly alive
to whatever bears the character of energy, re-
quired only such an occasion and such an actor,
to draw from it the expression of its feelings.
The National Guard, armed citizens, who may:
be considered representatives of the respectable
part of, the: population, called on by the Presi-
dent of the Chamber to use force towards l‘la-
nuel, refused to act. We have here a most un-
tviivocal demonstration of the side on which the
nation ranges intsell. Manual was expelled by
force, and with him the whole of the Opposition
left the Chamber. This is probably the first
act of a great drattinia. The Charter which
has given so much pain to the admirers of
the old regime is now fairly destroyed. The
next act will be the great, struggle which,must
commence for the acquisition of a real Constitu-
tion, or the establishment of a complete des-
. potism. To the next accounts, from Paris we
look forward with a painful interest. We fer-
vently hope the French, on so momentous an
occasion, will not be found wanting ; that a de-
testable• faction will no longer be allowed to
trample on their fellow-citizens, and to -waste
their resources in mad attempts against the- liber-
ties of other natiotta, and that we may soon have
the satisfaction of. ranking France in the list of
free nations, no longer the enemy, but the friend
of the prosperity of her neighbours. The most
difficult step waslaken, when the National Guard
took its side, It was an act which must inspire
universal confidence. How much Europe, owes
to this gallant band, whatever may be the issue
of the struggle ! The prayers
,of every friend of
good government throughout the world will be
afered up for their success.
