for. His Majesty then went to the hospital

JIERLIN, Auc. 15.—0 n the 13th of this month, a
mmisterial Rescript was addrw-sed to the censors, most
strictly erj dning them to refuse their imprimateur to all
Iltrar,raphs which contains the most distant allusion to
ehvous matters in their periodicals, which are not ex-
PreNsly au horised by their licence to treat of religious
eontrovers'es.
THE HAGUE. Ana. 22.—The journals contain nurne-
1,0118 accounts of the devastation caused in various parts
by
a hurricane or waterspout that came from the South.
The fellowing are xiracts
" LIEGZ ZwALUW, AUG. 19.—T ,-day about half Test
're o'clock in the afternoon we had a furious hurricane
or waterspout from the South-west, which beat down
several large and strong barns, some to the very founda-
l°ll, from the house of the Burgomaster to that of
"utian de Vigel. The houses, too, have suffered enor-
trus damage, the roofs were carried away, the windows
4herl to pieces, to d many are so much injured that they
Ire M danger of falling.
It is impossible to estimate the damage, for not only
the stock in the barns, but also what corn was mown
tstill in the fields. was taken up and scatteredlar
nos r.
th We bear that the same hurricane, accompanied by a
°llder storm, raged at ZkNenberger, and did much
image. The Roman Catholic church, in particular,
suffered much damage."
AMsrEarnam,2l.—There was good reason to
rear that we should receive melancholy accounts of the
effects of the violent hurricane which arose in the after-
noon of Tuesday, the 19th, and continued through the
bight and the following day. The immediate environs
of this city have not remained free. We do not hear that
ttlq• damage worth mentioning has been done, except the
uprooting of a few trees.
AARLENDERVEEN, AUG. 20.—A waterspout did great
damage here yesterday. On the road near Alphen it
tore up a bridge, and threw it to a great distance. A
farmhouse was much injured, and many large trees up-
rooted. A small vessel on the Rhine, on board which
Were a man and his wife and three children, was turned
upside down. The mast of it was fixed in the bed of
the river. The parents and two children were thrown
Into
. the Rhine.under the vessel, and saved with much
bane
; the third, a girl eleven years old, seems to
"ure been below in the cabin, and perished. We may
thank Providence that the waterspout did not pass over
the parts of the populous districts of Alphen, Aarlan-
merveen; &c., which are more covered with buildings.
The accounts from Zeviubergen are of a similar na-
!in% ; more damage seems to have been done there, and
it was feared that several lives were lost. A child was
found buried under the ruins, a carpenter is missing,
knd a servant was found dead in a barn.
THE HAGUE, AUG. 21.—We learn that their Majes-
ties the King and Queen will set out to-morrow on their
tutended visit to Luxemburg. A part of their attend-
tate have already left the Hague.

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.
TEN MEN DROWNED.
(Front the Caledonian Mercury.)
beNeke....A most distressing catastrophe occurred here Tester_
duY (Wednesday), by which ten individuals have been drowned.
"5 Red Rover fishing boat, of tluckhavcn, with a crew of six
William "Eliorason master, in taking the old harbour, about
‘oid.day, was driven among the rocks and totally wrecked. Three
the crew were instantly drowned. The master got on to a rock
4'4 was saved. His brother reached a small rock, near the iron
pale, which is surrounded by deep water, and covered at full tide;
4liainst which the sea was fearfully oreakiog. Many fruitless at_
tempts were made to rescue him. As a last attempt, Lieutenant
"*Ylde, of the Preventive service ; Mr. Lucas, chief boatman,
With four seafaring men belong to the town, whose names
were David Darg, Peter Darg, William Miller, and Wit.

Clement, volunteered their services, and, in a fishing
at. Willy ventured out. They had in arty reached the rock
when the poor man was washed off; bur he kept up for a short time,
'rid neared the boat. The crew hail almost succeeded in catching
bill hand, when a sea struck the boat and drove it among the rocks
behind the pier, where, melancholy to mention, it was dashed to
Pieces, and the whole crew drowned. The object of their solici-
hide was carried to sea, and met the same fete. It is distressing
to think of the extent of affliction which this farful event has
occasioned. Lieutenant Wylde, Mr. Lucas, Peter Darg, and Wil.
bun Clement, were married men, and all of them except Mr.
Lucas, have left families. The two farmer were excellent seamen,
14 much respected in Dunbar. The stale of excitement and
bloom which this melancholy occurrence has occasioned among all
Musses is very great. It is not known what caused the Red Rover
`Q attempt Dunbar with such a fearful swell in shore. She had
Pot bean fishing there for some days, and not more than six boats
belonging to the station had ventured to the fishing ground on the
preceding evening. It is thought that she was well fished, and
frorn the circumstance of few Dunbar boa's being out, expected a
!pore ready market for her cargo.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
Extract of a letter twin Dunbar, dated August 90 :—" A fist-1-
'4 boat, in trying to enter this harbour to-day at noon, in a rough
eta, struck on a rock and went to pieces ; one man out of five was
iraehed over the rocks and was saved. Another got on a rock with
a certainty of being drowned unitss a boat could reach him.
Lteut. Wyl.le, of the coast-guard, with five men, made tho praise
Worthy attempt, but befcre they could reach him he was washed off
the rock and drowned, and, lamentable to state, a heavy sea struck
the boat amongst the rocks, which was dashed to pieces, and all on
board perished. Thus perished a brave officer and nine men in a
tiq minutes, in sight of hutillreds of persons, who could render no
ihssistance. 4Ollll

SUPERSTITION IN THE 19TH CENTURY. —ln the
back settlements of the parish of Margaret noodling, a young man,
Who lives with his mother, had been for some time grievously
~attlicted with intermittent fever and ague ; physicians had visited
4,01 in vain, he still remained ill, until a cunning woman was con-
sulted, who resides between Epping Forest and Ongar, and the
charmer's prescription runs as follows :—" That a small nut should
he
cut in twain, the kernel extracted, and a live spider placed in the
shell, which was to be sewn up in a bag and worn round his neck,
and as the spider wasted so would the fever leave him " The charm
Was procured;_ the patient positively wore it, and as "the whole
Matter was in a nut-shell," of course he soon recovered, and (says
our correspondent) is able to undertake his harvest. We should
have thought such ignorance could not have found a resting place
ill the darkest nook in Essex, but our correspondent assures us, in
Solemn phrase, he is not cracking a joke upon the nut-shell.—Chelets-
feed Chroniee.
DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT LIVERPOOL.—Just as we
Were going to press last night, word reached the fire police station
that the sugar-warehouse and premises of Messrs. Parry and Light-
foot, Ellanborougli-street, were on fire. Mr. Hewitt immediately
dispatched several engines, and a large number of the fire-brigade.
There being plenty of water, the engines were soon got into
DIV. Shortly after eleven o'clock the roof of the sugar-
house fell in, and the total destruction of the building
seemed inevitable. About a quarter to twelve o'clock the fire had
reached its utmost Hinds, but no sooner had the flames been got well
under in this part of the premises, than it watt discovered the warehouse
Adjoining, which fronts Wellington-street, had caught fire, and that
the flames had got well hold of the building. The rooms being partly
empty, assisted materially the progress of the flames, and the fire
spread rapidly for some time. In about an hour and a half from the time
of the discovery the flames were gut under to so great an extent as to
Place all appehensions of the further destrtion of property beyond
doubt. The total loss is roughly estimateduc at between 5,000/. and
6.oool.—Lieerpool Mercury.
STATE OF THE HOSIERY AND LACE TRADES.—The
state of the staple manufactures of the town has not improved since
our last, and a general gloom pervades the workmen, as well as the
'heaters. The N7rought cotton hose branch, however, which employs
the greatest number of hands, is, if any thing, in the best state of
any of the cotton hosi,?rY branches, if we except the fancy branch,
Which is rather limited; btit even this is very dull, the hands not
having full employment. A rumour has prevailed, that the Act of
Parliament passed last session, indeed the working of cut hosiery,
And a grtevous.atsappointment is felt that !t only relates to giving out a
ticket with the work. We have not heard that any of the masters,
or any additional hosiers, have adopted the method of giving put
tickets, and in all probability they will not until the Ist if January
when the law becomes compulsory, under the heavy fine of Si. for
each omission. It remains now to be seen whether this salutary
statute will remain, like the Truck Act, a dead letter, because the
hands, from fear of losing their employment, have not the spirit to
gendrally enforce it. All partial operations of a restrictive law is an
unjust infliction upon individuals, as it punishes them in removing
the evil. The fancy bobbing net trade continues in a lamentable
state. A general gloom seems to pervade most of the machine
owners, as they find alteration upon alteration of pattern to bring
little or no relief. There is no material alteration to the warp lace
trade since our last, the cotton branches are very dull, and manygood
hands are out of employment. The worsted jucquard shawls are in-
creasing, and becoming commonly worn.—Xottieghant Review.
TROUT IN A Dook.—On the evening of Friday
last, while the water was pumping out of the graving dock, two fine
trout were captured, each weighing from a pound to a pound and a
halt We have observed several others taken from the same place
during the season.—Dundee Courier.
EXECUTION AT CLONMEL.—On Saturday last
Denis Lucie forfeited his life in the front of our county gaol, for the
Inurder of Daniel Sullivan, near Fethard, in this county, in the year
1843, of Which he was found guilty at our late , assizes, before Chief
Justice Doherty. From an early hour thismoming the streets in the
"Immediate vicinity of the gaol were literally crammed with persons
9,f all ages and sexes. All the windows which commanded 4 view of the
'mai spot were also tilled with people, who, to their sitqme.
Anxiously, awaited the dismal moment to arrive to behold the last finishes
of the law perform his rigorous atni, 41as ! appalling duty. Shortly atter
1
o'clock the place of execution was suitzsglitded by a strong military
and d Police force, which consisted of a troop of do 13111 Light Dragoons
end two companies of the 3311 Foot, the former unites- alg Command
of Lieutenant Gore, and the latter under Captain Galway, together
With a strong possee of constabularY. commanded by sub-inspecthi
'e„ Leod ; and in a few minutes dichtnoed-stmt became a reservoir
