of the bar at the mouth of that harbour, Tile Ramsgate

having towed the Jamaica from the 'Downs to Blanliwall,

This afternoon, about a quarter past four o'clock, the
brig Palestine, Whittle master, of and from Sandal--
land, bound to Newhaven, in making for Ramsgate har-
bour, missed the entrance, and went to• the back of the
head, where she grounded on the -same spot. where the
unfortunate ship Ocean was lately lost.* The Emerald
steam-packet, which had just arrived from London, und
landed her passengers, went out to her assistance, and suc-
ceeded in extricating her from her perilous position, and
towed her in gallant style into the harbour.
There being scarcely any w►nd, it is not expected that the brig
has received any material damage,

LORD MULGRAVE.-At the entertainment given
to the Viceroy at Belfast on Saturday, his Lordship, in the
course of his address, said, " I appear here as the represen-
tative of my gracious Sovereign, who is the common father
of all his people, whatever may be their denomination ; aml
my purpose in coming among you is, that I may oilect,
personally, information fro.n all parts of this country, and
from all classes of its inhabitants. All, therefore, that 1

expect—l will not say require—but all that I expect on
such an occasion is, that you should duly appreciate the ob-
ject of my visit, and do justice to the MOM 143( wbiel 1
have been actuated. In the course at a varied life, It has
been my lot to mix with individuals entertaining very dif-
ferent shades of. opinion ; and, though public life has many
thanklekg and nrigrateful moments, yet never live I Met
with an honest, intelligent matt, however opposed to me,
from whom, if I did not succeed in dispelling what I should
call his prejudices, I at least generally succeeded in mitigat-
ing them, 4141 never failed to acquire, for my own improve-
ment, some valuable information.°
On Sunday evening, about nine o'clock, whilst the
Lord Reresford steam.packet was at anchor in Guernsey
Roads; a Trench Cliasse.rnaree, of about 150 tons, laden
with wines and brandy, drove from her anchors, and run foul
of the Beresford. Four men, who composed the crew, (the
Captain loin ashore) jumped on board ; and, •by thus
abandoning their vessel, suffered her to drift on the rocks
near Glatney, where in a short time she became a complete
wreck, This kind of cowardly conduct is, as has often
been remarked, peculiar to the French sailors ; English-
men would have been ashamed of such a dastardly aban-
donment of the property of their employer. The noble
bearing of the crew of the Pique offers a lesson in this par-
ticular deserving all commendation —Jersey Argus.
PUBLIC DINNER IN SCOTLAND.—THE POLES.
—The Dun fries Courier of 'Wednesday contains a brief
account of a public entertainment given last Monday even-
ing in the town of' Castle Douglas, to the Right Hon.
11, C. Fergusson, Member for the Stewartry of Kirkcud-
bright. No less than 140 persons sat down. The Chair
was taken by Major Colton of Auchnabony, shortly after
five o'clock ; who was supported on the right by the Hon.
Member for the Stewartry, Count Zamoyeaki, and other
gentlemen ; and on the left by Prince Czartoryski, Lord
Dudley Stewart, Captain Dunn, David Campbell, Esq.,
&c. Mr. M'Millan of Barwhinnock, and Provost Hewet-
son Castle. Douglas, officiated as Croupiers. After the
us of
usual public toasts, which were given with all the honours,
the Chairman proposed the leading toast of the day in a
manner that elicited the warmest plaudits, His Ma-
jesty's Judge 4dvoeate.General replied at much length,
and with his usual ability. Towards the conclusion of his
speech, the Hon. Gentleman made many feeling allusions
to his friend, Prince Csatoryski, and the cause of Sarmatia
generally, which drew from one of the most venerable sons
of Poland a prompt and highly appropriate reply, Although
his ar.cent is foreign, the Prince speaks English remarkably
well, and was readily apprehended by all within hearing
distance. The health of his nephew followed, who, it ap-
pears, was the bravest of the brave, frequently led the van,
and was repeatedly wounded in the course of the severest,
and,to one party at least, the most honourable contest that
ever was waged in modern times. The Count simply re-
turned thanks. He is aane-looking young man, tall in
stature, and of a very interesting cast of countenance.
Lord Dudley Stuart, in the course of a long and ener-
getic speech, also alluded to the wrongs of Poland, and
awakened by his remarks the deepest sympathy on the part
of his auditory. The age of this Nobleman appears to
be about thirty ; his forehead is high and finely arched ;
his ardour is great, and to this quality he superadds feel-
