We understand his MAJESTY has been most
tracioualy pleased to grant Mr. Louis Law's, of Rams-
ee, permission to publish the splendid Picture of the
*Wm and Royal Harbour of Ramsgate, under his especial
Patronage. So flattering a mark of distinction towards
ghat highly-favoured town is duly appreciated by its loyal-
14kabitants.
Lord ELDON, as usual, was one of the first
Yesterday, no doubt, to take the field to partake of his fa-
t9hrite amusement of partridge shooting. His Lordship
an excellent shot, and would bag more game than any
qher sportsman in the kingdom, if he were not so slues

'Prong.

. We have authority to state that the Marquis
f Smuo has so identified himself with the welfare of Ire-
land, that he has declared he will oppose any Ministry or
government that do not intend to ameliorate the condition
sf this country, by extending the blessings and privileges of

(From tlie-Dubtin Evening Post of Saturday.)
I, We state from authority, and we defy contradic-
*tion, that' the Duke of Wellington has succeeded in
making the proper impression on the highest quarter,
• on the subject of the Catholic Claims.
We were prepared for this announcement by vari-
-2:'51!5 e.omMunications?:—we were prepared for it by
.
reading in the London Papers several uncontradicted
~.4tatements. We shall quote one of these :
`` We are authorised by a Gentleman of high character
:41' State, that the Duke of Wellington expressed himself four
'Yirt:arg ago favourable to the settlement of the Catholic Claims
n
-• e said, if an arrangement by Concordat' could be entered
Int9.with the Pope, he saw no difficulty in the way of ad-
• .the. Catholics to an equality with Protestants.
This fact is the more important, as it shows the Duke's
.` opinion on the subject is .not one which has been recently
ken up, and warrants, the conclusion that he is not now
teaverizing, as has been insinuated, but seriously favour-
- • 41110 to an adjustment of the claims."--Morning Chron.
Now for the authenticity of this paragraph we can
'onehyersonally. We know "a gentleman of high
iharacter," to whom the puke expressed himself in
the manner described. We can add, too, that a
change in the Cabinet, with a view to this measure,
is likely to take place. The London Papers report,
that Lord -.nsdowne is again about to take office,
and it is hinted that Earl Grey will succeed to the
Admiralty. We shall not pretend either to confirm
or to deny these statements. All that we mean to
vouch for is this, that Parliament will meet in No-
vember, with a view of considering the question, and
appointing a Committee. A letter which we soh-
join goes to this extent, but we have the fact from
another source.
London, Thursday Evening half-past seven o'clock.
, I have been informed at the House of Commons
this evening, that all the clerks are ordered to be in
• - attendance in November, as it is in contemplation
for the Parliament to sit in that month, for the pur-
Pose of appointingia Committee who .are to inquire
Lato the means of relieving the disabilities of the
•"0„, man Catticajes, and_:.to report thereon when the
House, meets regularly in February. . Such- is the
tinderstanding now:among the inferior officers of the
House of Commons, avid as other vircumstances
-. haves occurred to corroborate this view of things,
I lose no time in sending to you the information. It
ja said that the Committee will be fairly chosen.

At a late hour, yesterday evening, we received
notice of a most distressing accident which occurred
ap Lochlomond that afternoon, whereby no less than
rat rives were lost. The following are the particu-
us, so far as we have been able to obtain them from
our informant. The Lady of the Lake steam boat,
Was on her return from her usual voyage to the head
at the Loch, and had lain to, opposite Tether, to re-
ceive aboard those passengers who had landed there,
such other visitors as were waiting for her at that
Place. She arrived between two and three in the
afternoon, and the small boat, which belongs to
the Inn, and which is under the charge of the
hostler, immediately put of. The boat was
quite crowded. One person has told us there
Were about twenty, and another says there were
from twenty to twenty-five crammed into the small
coble. The Lake was smooth, and shining as a
. mirror, and the steam-boat was not much more than
:30 yards from the shore. Some of the company,
remonstrated against the boatman taking so many in
at one time, but he assured them that there was no
,danger, and .the devoted boat aecordingly pushed
slowly off 'with: its victims.- A person, who was
standing on the beach, described it to us that the
boat " wabbled on," from One side to another, till
it came close to the steamer; it then made a
" creen " towards the steamer, so alarmir4 that
"most of the passengers rose up and clustered to
the other side, when the boat completely heeled
over, and floated keel uppermost. It was a mo-
ment of intense agony. Few shrieks were heard;
one or two piercing ones could only be distinguished
---the unfortunates seemed to have. been stifled with
the waters instantly. Some of the passengers
escaped by swimming 'to the shore. Many were
not, however, so fortunate. The drowning caught to
the drowning, and went down locked fast together.
One young man mate a most providential escape.
Re was a. stout swimmer, and at. the moment the
boat swamped, he found himself entangled with
three. They clung to the skirt of his coat, but it.
gave way, and he got to the shore, denuded of this
Part of his dress. The seaman who was instra-
alental in saying four lives, mentioned that the small
boat had come against the steamer, which made
'the boat dip quite to its gunwale, and that the
People on board it then leant off to the other
side, which overbalanced it, and precipitated them
,all into the Water. When our other inform.
ant left Tarbet, there were nine persons brought'
ashore lifeless; others Were in such a state that it
was even doubtful if they could be resuscitated. It
alade a deep impression on his mind, while standing
in the kitchen of the inn,. to see dinner cooking for
the living, and on tables and dressers in the same
apartment were stretched the corpses -of the dead.
A new married couple were of 'the number drowned.
Where the accident took place there was almost five
fathom of water. The lake is so translucent, that
.its bottom can easily be seen Lit becomes probable,
Iherefore, that no more than the number specified
have been lost.—Paisley Advertiser, Aug. 30.,
