ABERDEEN, APRIL 23.
On the night of Wednesday last, -his Majesty's
schooner WIDGEON, Lieutenant GEORGE ELLIOT,
which accompanied the American convoy, went
ashore at Black Potts, a little to the northward of
Banff. The crew, as also a great part of the mate-
rials and stores, were saved ; but, from the unsettled
and boisterous weather, it is very doubtful if the ves-
sel can be got off. Tuesday last, on board a vessel
unloading lime at the Quay, a spar, or as it is called
the Sway, whereby the lime barrel is hoisted and di-
rected, having broke, the barrel full of lime fell into
the hold, and striking a seaman's leg, shattered it and
his foot in a shocking manner. The poor man was
carried to the Infirmary, where the leg was immedi-
• atcly amputated.

CORN FICMANGE, MARE-LANE, APRIL 2.7.--Wheat
to-day is in short supply, and fine samples readily
keep their price, but ordinary dull in sales—The sup-
ply of Barley is likewise short, and rather higher—
Fine Malt also—White Peas this week are cheaper:
Beans of the two kinds vary but little—Of Oats there
are not many at hand, and this trade appears to fetch
somewhat better price—The terms of Flour . without
variation.
