ILEROIB.3I.

During a fearful gale, at six a.m. on the 19th
inst., the cable of a coasting sloop, the Mary and
Ann, of Newport, Pembroke, snapped asunder, close
under the cliffs, about half a mile below where the
French invading force, under General Tate, landed
at Pencaer, 67 years ago. Intelligence of the
wreck was brought to the Fishguard Lifeboat
Station, and the lifeboat was expeditiously manned
and rowed round the coast to the spot. The sloop
was wrecked against a small precipitous island,
with a channel between it and the mainland about
40 yards across, through which the sea burst with
great fury. One of the crew of tho sloop was cast
by the waves on the side of the cliff facing the
land. Another could be seen lying on his stomach,
with his head to windward, clinging to a ledge of
rock seaward of the island, every wave -washing
over him. Several ladders were lashed together
and a rope made fast to the top. This extempore
bridge was thrown accross the channel, but was im-
mediately broken by the force of the waves, and
the ladders and rope washed adrift. The lifeboat
arrived, but from danger of being wreckied could
not be of any service. Albert Furong, aged 19, a
native of Fishguard, then volunteered to swim
across the Channel with a rope tied to his waist,
so as to be hauled back if unsuccessful; but the
bystanders refused, judging by the fury of the
waves and his apparent physical incapacity for
such a feat that he would certainly be drowned.
David Beddoe, a seaman, nothing dauntea by their
refusal, slipped off his coat and waistcoat, climbed
down the cliff, and plunged into the sea, closely
followed by Furlong. The bystanders actually ran
away " rather than see two men drown in that way."
After several times missing his hold of the opposite
rocks Beddoe got a footing, when at the end of the
channel, and within a few feet of being washed
out to sea. Young Furlong, also, after frequently
missing his hold, grasped some seaweed, and
managed to get a footing beyond reach of the
waves. Their late companions had by this time
mustered curiosity to look after their fate, and
seeing the heroes so far safe one ventured across
with a rope and was pulled up by Beddoe and
Furlong. It was a comparatively easy task

One lad, aged 14, was washed away from
the wreck and drowned. The man who had been
on the ledge was about 60, and by the time he
reached the mainland his arms were stiff in the
position he grasped the rock, and he evidently
could not have lived there much longer.

MARLBOROUGH STREET.

ROBBERY BY AN OFFICER'S SERVANT.—George Gil-
lard, a private of the 11th Hussars, but acting as servant to
Mr. Fremantle, an officer of the 11th Hussars, was charged
before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing a watch from the pan-
try of his master's residence, 15, Tilney-street, Park-lane,
the watch being the property of Robert Batson, a fellow-
servant.

From the evidence of Batson it appeared he missed his
watch from the place in the pantry where he had left it, and
reported it about the house among the servants, and the
prisoner expressed his sorrow at his loss. A constable was
afterwards galled in by Captain Fremantle, and he gave
him a description of the watch. Prisoner begged not to
be prosecuted, saying that, although he took it, he did not
do so with the intention of stealing it. He subsequently
went with the prisoner to prisoner's brother, and the pri-
soner there gave him up the watch.

Ensign Fremantle, of the 11th Hussars, said the pri-
soner bad been his servant about nine months, travelling
with him from place to place. Returning from the theatre
the previous night, and hearing that the prisoner, who was
his groom, was still in the house, and that he had been
charged with stealing Batson!s watch, he asked how that
was, and was told by Batson that as he had got his watch
back he did not wish to prosecute. He, therefore, gave the
prisoner into custody. Captain Fremantle was his (Mr.
Fremantle' s) brother.
In answer to the magistrate, if was stated by Bullock,
203 C, that prisoner had previously been given into cus-
tody, but being released had returned to his master's resi-
dence, and was, as above stated, given into custody a se-
cond time.
Remanded for a week.

THIS DAY'S MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

Very little English wheat was received fresh up to-day,
coastwise or by land carriage. The few good and fine
samples on offer changed hands steadily, at Monday's quo-
tations, but low and damp parcels ruled heavy, at almost
nominal currencies.

There was a large show of foreign wheat, for which we
had a fair retail inquiry, at full prices. Floating cargoes
were dull, but not cheater.
On the whole, the barley trade was steady. In the cur-
rencies, however, no change took place.
The show of English wheat was trifling.
No change took place in the value of malt, but the trade
was in a most inactive state.

We have to report a steady, but by no means active, in-
quiry for oats, at full quotations.

Beans and peas were dull, but not cheaper.
Although the supply of foreign flour continues large,
the trade was firm, at late rates.

FRANCE.

The Moniteur publishes the official return of the
customs revenue for January, 1861, amounting to
8,134,900 f., being 5,476,337 f. less than in the
corresponding month of 1860, and 4,453,347 f.
less than in 1859. The official journal
makes the following remarks on the subject:—
" The tables which present the principal com-
mercial and maritime results obtained during the
month of January last, as compared with those of
the corresponding period of the two preceding
years, show in several respects a fresh increase
in our commercial relations with foreign coun-
tries. In the imports the most marked aug-
mentation has taken place in French colonial
sugar, coffee, raw cotton, and metals, particularly
i❑ cast iron from England. Sugar, as compared
with 1860, has ircreasd 49,348 metrical quin-
tals (2211 lb. each•), and with 1859, 76,051 m.q.;
coffee, 8,806 and 4,613 ; cotton, 37,031 and 28,217 ;
and rough castings, 10,430 and 29,905 respectively.
There has also been an improvement in cocoa and on
raw wool, as compared with Jan., 1860. In exports
the commercial movement has rather slackened in
some kinds of merchandise—refined sugar has been
sent abroad under benefit of drawback in a less quan-
tity by 3,739 met. quin. than in the corresponding
month of 1860. Among the goods, the stock of
which in our entrepots maintains itself at a higher
point, notwithstanding the increase in the consump-
tion, coffee must be more particularly mentioned.
There remained on hand 147,824 met. quin. at
the end Of last month, while there had been only
98,985 at the end of the same month of 1860, and
80,766 in that of 1859. Lastly, attention is directed
to the increase of the movement of French shipping
to foreign countries, the French colonies, and in the
great fisheries. The national flag, as compared with
1860, has gained during the month more than 14,000
tons in arrivals, and nearly 20,000 tons in depar-
tures."

REVIEWS OF THE WORK.

'Curtis on Manhood.—This is a truly valuable work, and
should be in the hands of young and old."—" Sunday Times,"
?:id 31 arch, 185(1.
"The author has conferred a great boon by publishing this
little work, in which is described the source of those diseases
which produce decline in youth or more frequently premature
old age."—" Daily Telegraph," March 27, ISM

Dr. CURTIS may be consulted as usual, either by letter or
Personally. at his residence, as above. The efficacy and
harmless nature of the remedies employed by him having
been demen.tratcd by the most complete success during a
practice extending over a period of twenty-five years, nervous
sufferers can rely that the utmost skill and experience will be
made available in the treatment of their cases.

THE THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
•—• STRICTURES of the URETHRA; showing why they
so often appear Incurable, when in reality they might be
removed by the most simple means.
By F. B. COUHTENAY, M.R.C.S.E.,
- -

And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the

Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply ample evidence of his
Zreat discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuab.
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject
to stricture."—Medical Circular, Dec. Ist, 1858.

GLOUCESTER.

The city of Gloucester being completely open to
the west and south, not a hill rising between it and
the Bristol Channel, felt the full severity of the gale.
Besides trees thrown down all over the vale of
Gloucester, up which the wind rushed with great
velocity, the ships in the Berkeley Canal and
Gloucester docks were damaged, and the railway
station belonging to the Great Western and South
Wales Companies was almost demolished.

PLYMOUTH, THURSDAY, 10 A.M.

This morning, at one o'clock, as the crew of a
Brigham fishiug sloop, who had been to the theatre,
were rowing, up Catwater to get on board their
vessel, they heard cries of distress from the Batten-
ridge, and on reaching the spot were providentially
enabled to pick off the remaining portion.of the
crew of a wrecked vessel (the master and two men)
belonging to the French brig Augustine, which
parted her cables in the Sound at 10 o'clock last
night, and went ashore immediately. Three of the
cre-,v are unfortunately drowned. The three sur-
vivors are under medical treatment at the Admiral
IVlLBride tavern. The storm commenced last night
from S.S.W. It veered round about one o'clock to

FEARFUL ACCIDENT.—A dreadful accident has
aken place in the Clapham-road, close to the Hanover
Arms publichouse, by which two men have lost their lives
and a third now lies in a most precarious state. The Clap-
ham Stores beerhouse, situated at the corner of Church-
street, Clapham-road. has for some time been undergoing
repair prior to an application being made at the next an
nual licensing meeting for a spirit license. As the house
stood back some three yards from the "face" of the ether
houses in the street, it was deemed advisable to bring out
the front so as to make it in a line with the other part of
the street. Yesterday the workmen had laid on the first
floor joists ready for the floor, and three of the men were
engaged at seven o'clock in the evening in getting
the fixtures up, to complete it as quickly as
possible. The men so employed were two car-
penters and a plasterer. Shortly after seven o'clock the
whole of the new building fell with a fearful crash, bring-
ing down part of the roof of the old house with it, and
coming down SO suddenly that the three men beneath were
crushed. When taken out two of them wore quite dead,
and the third was taken to a surgeon's. No hopes are given
of his recovery. One of the two mei& was the foreman,
named Mackintosh, who has feft a wife and large family.
A woman was passing at the time, and a portion of the wall
knocked her down and seriously cut open her head, but she
quickly extricated herself, and, after having her wounds
boundup, was able to go home to her friends. Macintosh
was taken to the Greyhound Tavern. The other unfortu-
nate man was taken to another tavern up the road. Both
men have been recognised, and are stated to have left large
91 1' families.

and itself as when it still retains its coolness and its har-
mony. While land is hoping for concessions, while
boroughs are trembling for existence, while int(reSts ate
struggling for amendaney, public men are looking
to electiotia, a strong national enthusiasm cannot be main-
tained. The passions of each class have alre ley found an
object and a channel. This was hot alohe his view, it was the
deep, intense, and all the More intense be =se instinctive,
judgment of the public. Why with one voice did they
sweep away the ill-starred bill of 1854 when the BAissian
war impended, but because they knew it would divide them,
and that division would be fatal to their interest? But it
was hot only in 1854 that the state of Europe was at
variance with a re-construction of ©tit Legislature ; 1852
found us engaged in a similar adventure. It also found a
military despotism suddenly restored, which, however
friendly it might be to us, made a sudden call on public
unanimity, and induc:d the country to revive the long..
abandoned force of the militia. In 1859 a European
war coincided with the general election, which a re-
constructive measure had produced, and few deny
that such a general election was a heavy blow to
our influence in Europe. If indeed the powers of the
world u ere reedy to suspend intrigue, diplomacy, and war
while our reconstruction was proceeding, if history entered
into an engagement to stand until a Anal project had been
carried, the case would be a different one. But an empire
like ours is too extensive in its parts, too varied in its
nterests, and has too many pints of contact with other
ortions of the world to give a reasonable prospect of the
freedom and the vacancy a reconstruction calls for. The
person who looks forward to it may well remind us of the
benighted countryman in Horace, whose fashion it was to
stand by rivers in the firm belief that they would rapidly
exhaust themselves—

FRANCE.

The lU'oniteur publishes the official return of the
customs revenue for January, 186 i, amounting to
8,134,900 f., being 5,476,337 f. less than in the
corresponding month of 1860, and 4,453,347 f.
less than in 1859. The official journal
makes the following remarks on the subject :
" The tables which present the principal com-
mercial and maritime results obtainod during the
month of January last, as compared with those of
the corresponding period of the tcro preceding
years, show in several respects a flesh increase
in our commercial relations with foreign coun-
tries. In the imports the most narked aug-
mentation has taken place in French colonial
sugar, coffee, raw cotton, and metals, particularly
in cast iron from England. Sugar, at compared
with 1860, has ircreasd 49,348 metrical quin-
tals (2211 lb. each•), and with 1859, 7(,051 m.q. ;
coffee, 8,806 and 4,613 ; cotton, 37,031 and 28,247 ;
and rough castings, 10,430 and 29,905 respectively.
There has also been an improvement in cocoa and on
raw wool, as compared with Jan., 1860. In exports
the commercial mo'cement has rather slackened in
some kinds of merchandise—refined sugar has been
sent abroad under benefit of drawbackin a less quan-
tity by 3,739 met. quin. than in the corresponding
month of 1860. Among the goods, the stock of
which in our entrepots maintains itself at a higher
point, notwithstanding the increase in the consump-
tion, coffee must be more particularly mentioned.
There remained on hand 147,824 met. quin. at
the end of last month, while there had been only
98,985 at the end of the same month of 1860, and
80,766 in that of 1859. Lastly, attention is directed
to the increase of the movement of French shipping
to foreign countries, the French colonies, and in the
great fisheries. The national flag, as compared with
1860, has gained during the month more than 14,000
tons in arrivals, and nearly 20,000 tons in depar-
tures."

GLOUCESTER.

The city of Gloucester being completely open to
the west and south, not a hill rising between it and
the Bristol Channel, felt the full severity of the gale.
Besides trees thrown down all over the vale of
Gloucester, up which the wind rushed with great
velocity, the ships in the Berkeley Canal and
Gloucester docks were damaged, and the railway
station belonging to the Great Western and South
Wales Companies was almost demolished.

PLYMOUTH, THURSDAY, 10 A.M.

This morning, at one o'clock, as the crew of a
Brigham fishing sloop, who had been to the theatre,
were rowing up Catwater to get on- board their
vessel, they heard cries of distress from the Batten-
ridge, and on reaching the spot were providentially
enabled to pick off the remaining portion of the
crew of a wrecked vessel (the master and two men)
belonging to the French brig Augustine; which
parted her cables in the Sound at 10 o'clock last
night, and went ashore immediately. Three of the
crew are unfortunately drowned. The three sur-
vivors are under medical treatment at the Admiral
l\l'Bride tavern. The storm commenced last night
from S.S.W. It veered round about one o'clock to
W.S.W., blowing strong, and is now returning to
London, England, 1861-02-22

11EI2()ISM.

During a fearful gale, at six a.m. on the 19th
inst., the cable of a coasting sloop, the Mary and
Ann, of Newport, Pembroke, snapped asunder, close
under the cliffs, about half a mile below where the
French invading force, under General Tate, landed
at Pencaer, 67 years ago. Intelligence of the
wreck was brought to the Fishguard Lifeboat
Station, and the lifeboat was expeditiously manned
and rowed round the coast to the spot. The sloop
was wrecked against a small precipitous island,
with a channel between it and the mainland about
40 yards across, through which the sea burst with
great fury. One of the crew of the sloop was cast
by the waves on the side of the cliff facing the
land. Another could be seen lying on his stomach,
with his head to windward, clinging to a ledge of
rock seaward of the island, every wave washing
over him. Several ladders were lashed together
and a rope made fast to the top. This extempore
bridge was thrown aecross the channel, but was im-
mediately broken by the force of the waves, and
the ladders and rope washed adrift. The lifeboat
arrived, but from danger of being wrecked could
not be of any service. Albert Furlong, aged 19, a
native of Fishguard, then volunteered to swim
across the Channel with a rope tied to his waist,
so as to be hauled back if unsuccessful; but the
bystanders refused, judging by the fury of the
waves and his apparent physical incapacity for
such a feat that he would certainly be drowned.
David Beddoe, a seaman, nothing daunted by their
refusal, slipped off his coat and waistcoat, climbed
down the cliff, and plunged into the sea, closely
followed by Furlong. The bystanders actually ran
away " rather than see two men drown in that way."
After several times missing his hold of the opposite
rocks Beddoe got a footing, when at the end of the
channel, and within a few feet of being washed
out to sea. Young Furlong, also, after frequently,
missing his hold, grasped some seaweed, and,
managed to get a footing beyond reach of the
waves. Their late companions had by this time

the wreck and drowned. The man who had been
on the ledge was about 60, and by the time he
reached the mainland his arms were stiff in the
position he grasped the rock, and he evidently
could not have lived there much longer.

Chili.—From this Republic the news is unim-
portant. In local matters the approaching elec-
tions engage public attention, and it is hoped that
both the Government and the Opposition parties
will agree on a line of policy which will tend to
prevent a disturbance. In the South the Indians
have fearfully ravaged the country, burning the
forage and pastures, in order to deprive the army
of all the resources the country might afford. The
market continues well supplied, and an improve-
ment in business is daily looked for. Manufactured
goods, metals, and liquors are abundant. Cerolina
rice is scarce and in demand.
