I never was nearer marrying imprudently than
after my first waltz. It is the champagne of the art; a
single round is sufficient to intoxicate.—Dr. Eldon's
Traveller's Oracle.

The young man who figured as hero in the
ridiculous duel story which we related last week, has been
discharged from his situation, and has left the town.—

REv. ROWLAND HILL.—The Cheltenham
Chapel was crowded to excise at the morning and evening
services on Sund.ry last, and at the evening service on Tues-
day, in order to hear the farewell addresses of this truly ve-
nerable Divine, who is now in his 85th year, and has la-
boured in the Ministry more than sixty years with eminent
success and unabated popularity. His asp et and manner
are must interesting and impressive, nor does his voice or
language exhibit any symptoms of intellectual decay, while
his patriarchal appearance, and affectionate earnestness of
delivery, rivet the attention, and engage the hearts of hie
numerous auditors.— Cheltenhant Ckronick.
THE PR ANTOM SHIP.—The following anec-
dote has been furnished to us by a correspondent, who states
that it wars communicated to him by an old seaman, on
whore veracity he can rely, and who is ready to make af-
fidavit as to the truth of it .—" It was during the spring
of 1771 (the year before the American revolutionary Ivas)
that 1 belonged to a King's cutter, the Burke, Captain
?iICE. We were one day laid on Galway bay, all hands
upon deck, the weather pretty fine, and a smart breeze
blowing away from the southward, when we were very
much surprised to see a brig working into the bay, under
her two topsails doubly reefed, and had gained the miildle of
the bay ere any one had seen her—she appeared as if she
had sprung out of the middle of it. She continued making
her way further up, till all on a sudden she disappeared as
quickly and as unaccountably as she had appeared. Where
and hew she bad gone (aa there was no creek •r channel
a herein she could have got) we were nttel ly at a loss to
know. Our Captain having occasion to go on shore, we
manned the gig (a long, light beat, peculiar to vessels of
war) and pulled to the beach, where we found the towns-
people, all on the qui vive respecting this vessel, as several
of them had seen her, ue well as ourselves, The account
they gave of her was, that some years before, a vessel of
precisely the same kind, came into the bay, with all hands
in board dead, apparently from starvation : the vessel we
-atw was reported by the townspeople to be in every respect
the very same, and they stated that she had made her ap-
pearance the same way once or twice betitre."—Bull
Packet.

Note.—The apparent decrease in the number and tonnage of
ships belonging to his Majesty's dominions for the year ended Mh
January, 1628, has arisen from the operation of the Registry
Acts, 4th and 6th Geo. IV., which required all vessels to be re-
gistered de novo within a limited period. The consequence has
been, that many vessels which were supposed to be in existence
were found to be no longer so. 'l'. E. WILLOUGHBY.
