DREADFUL GALE.—On the Morning of Fridt,, the 15th
May, at five o'clock, 18 small boats, from. Boddam (the crews
generally consisting of one man and two or three boys), went out
to the small- lines to the'south of lloddani, upon the coast of
Cruden. The morning, until 8 o'clock; was fin; the wind at
soutli,4est, which at that - time..veered to W. and N. W.
when .a hurricane, with snow, came on all at once, as they
were in the act of hauling their lines, which they were then
obliged to abandon, and take to their oais ; but although
only about a mile from the shore, it was with- much difficulty
that any could reach it ; such as did, took to the nearest
opening among the rocks, where they could find any
shelter. Six of the boats drove to sea ; four of which, with
fifteen Men and boys, were picked up by. Captain William
.Bence,vf the Lord Saltoun of Fraserburgh ; and such was the
siolenc.• of the gale, that the: crews were obliged to be hauled
on board over the stern 6f the"Vetset byrones. 'Another boat was
picked up by Capt. David Johnston-, Of the Betsey of Thurso.
Both Capt. Bence and• Capt. Johnston were inost attentive to the
sufferers. Another boat, on board of which were two men and two
boys, sora_of one of the men, -it is feared, was lost; during a
violent shower of hail at 12 o'clock, noon, the had been upset ;
she was not afterwards seen, and there yet no accounts
of her. One of the men has left a widct and five chil-
dren. About eleven o'clock, forenoon, a schooner passed the
boats, one of which made a. signal to her,. Which was •not
taken the least notict of ; this boat • was afterwards picked
up by one of the before-named vessels. SoMe of the crews
that were picked • up were landed at Stonehaven, others at
Aberdeen ; and all of . them express their gratitude for the at-
tention paid to them, and the aid they obtained at Aberdeen
(where about ,E 6 were collected for the purpose), to enable
them to travel home.—(Edinburgh Courant, June 2.)

A letter has been received from the Cape of Goad Hole,
to-day, by a Gentleman in this City (Edinburgh), which an-
nounces the safe arrival of the Westmoreland, from Leith for
New South Wales, after a passage of twelve weeks from Ports-
mouth.—(Caledonian Mercury.)
Two English ships, the Edward Ellice and the Lord SUffield,
were captured and taken into 'Huaeo, a port near Lirna, on the
9th of December last, by Lord Cochrane's squadron. The
Hyperion frigate was in sight at the time. The cause alleged
was, that they had Spanish property onboard. All the sailors
left than, and entered on board the Chili= fleet. The vessels
were to be taken to Valparaiso for adjudication.
On Thursday last as a market boat was returning from Ply-
mouth Dock, sne was upset by a sudden gukt of wind before
the sheets could he cleared, and twq,"out of three women, pas-
sengers, were drowned within sight of their home.

We cannot picture to our imagination a more tremendous
calamity than that which has lattly threatened this county; nor
can we point out any persons more worthy of some expression
of the county's gratitude, than those who have so happily be7n
the means of averting the threatened evil. We allude to the
following announcement, which we copy from the last week's
impression cf the taiunToN GAZETTE:—
It is said Mr. tambton was so indignant at the manner in
" which his late motion for Parliamentary Reform was treated
"by the House, that he would never enter within the walls
" again ; and that it has required the strongest persuasions to
" induce him to change that resolution."
Had this paragraph appeared" in any other paper we could not
have believed it,—but placed, as it is, in a conspicuous situation
in the official Journal of our excellent representative, we cannot
doubt its authenticity. Had Mr. Lambton resisted the impor-
-tunitiea.of his friends, and persevered in his determination to
r/taiguids.seaq, the-a gricaltural and commercial interests of this
county must have suffered to an incalculable extent; for no
Member, perhaps, ever did so much for both as has teen ac-
complished by Mr. Lambton. He has invariably supported
the petitions of the agriculturists, and strove to lighten their
burthens by an ingenious application of the County Rates ; and
he has also proved himself the indefatigable supporter of the
commercial and shipping interests, as may lie learnt fum the
merchants and ship-owners of Sunderland, Slields, and Stock-
ton, all of whom entertain the warmest sense of gratitude towards
him, and which was in some degree testified by deeds at a late
election at the Sunderland Exchange. We coult, dwell upon
the excellencies of our worthy. Member fer hours, but we must
be brief-Mr: Lambton is still the Representative of the County
of Durham, and we congratulate his constituents on the happy
circumstance of his having been dissuaded from an intention
which must have involved the county in lamentation and ruin.

Fr.° It ENcs, MAY 14 —(Extract of a private
.Letter.)—List Saturday his Excellency Lord
BuitGnEnsa, Envoy Extraordinary and Plenipo
tentiary from his Britannic Majesty to this Court,
gave, at the Palace of his residence, a splendid
entertainment, at which all 'the principal per-
sonages, both natives and foreigners, in this city,
assisted, and which was honoured by the pre-
sence of the Hereditary Prince, his Imperial
Highness the Archduke LEOPOLD, and his con-
sort, the Archduchess MARIA TILERESA, as well
as the Princes of the Royal Families of Saxony,
Carrignano, and Denmark, who are now here.
The entertainment consisted of a concert of select
vocal and instrumental music, composed with
great skill and- science' by his Excellency
self. The magnificence of the decorations, sump-
tuousness of the viands, and splendour of the
illuminations, Were in the accustomed style of all
those f&es that have ever been given by the above
British Minister. Another concert, not inferior
to the preceding, was given by his Excellency
Lord BURG lIERFII ; and several other fine pieces
of music, of his Excellency's composition, were
highly applauded. The concourse of illustrious
personages was immense. • , .

Mrs. CHARLES KEMBLE, we regret to hear,
and we are sure that the public will share in our
feelings, has been for some time too much affected
by the rheumatism to be able to resume her pro-
fession. A stronger proof of her inability in this
respect can hardly be offered than her want of
power to appear before her friends on the annual
benefit of herself and her husband this evening.
Mr. HAaLtir's benefit last night, at Drury-
lime Theatre, displayed an elegant assemblage,
and the entertainments of the night went off
with ecZat.

The large Picture that was exhibited yester-
day, at the Grand Festival in honour of his late
..STY, was painted by Mr. DEVI& It repre-
sents his late MAJESTY on horseback, ata Review,
with his hat off, returning a salute. It was lent
by the Artist for the. occasion, and exhibits no
ordinary specimen of historical genius in the
Fine Arts.
