SHIPWRECK AND LOSS OF LIVES.

QUEBEC, JULY 28.—The Neptune, which arrived this
morning from Gaspe, has brought intelligence of the total loss of the
Triton from Dublin, on the Bth inst. during a gale from F.S E. on
Cape Rosier. There were 138 emigrant passengers. of whom 25 to 25
have been drowned. A number of the bodies had been found and',
buried, and others were daily washed up from the wreck. Sixty of the
surviving passengers are on their way to Quebec, in the --,
Capt. &Miff ; the remainder having spread themselves about, in the
country adjoining where the wreck took place. Captain Boudreault
spoke the --, on Sunday week a little below Pointe des Monts; the
passengers were short of provisions, and on an allowance of a biscuit
and a half a day, their stock not enabling them to continue on that
allowance more than three days. They have probably therefore, put
into some of the ports below for provisions; if not, they may be hourly
expected. Captain Boudreault also informs us that a shallop of about
forty tons, belonging to Captain Abler, loaded with salt, was driven
ashore at the same time, and the Captain (Dennis) and the crew drowned.
A LOVER or EASZ.— W hen Polignac was recognised at
Granville, he was asked why he attempted his escape, and is said to have
answered. " Because I feared to be disquieted."
Daniel O'Connell, Esq. M.P. left Cork on Tuesday morn-
ing, for his seat, Derrinane Abbey, county Kerry.
Nicholas Philpot Leader, Esq. M.P. left Cork on Monday
for his seat, Drinagh, in that county.
The accounts from Monte Video state that an exposition
from the Government to the inhabitants has been published. Gate-
, cal Rivera Is deprived of all his official authorities. An interview
between the Governor and Rivera wee expected, from which the citi.
tens anticipated the conclusion o a peace.

Mr. Edward Herbert, jun. confirniA the above evidence, but it d•d
not appear quite clear that the stair with the knife was given in:-
meiliately, and the Jury, after a charge from Justice IloaAt3gl'E9,
found a verdict of Manslaughter. The prisoner, a remarkably mild
looking man, was simtencul to twelve months hard labour.
Thomas Cooper, aged 19, was intlicteti for writing, striding, ant! tit.
tering a certain letter, threatening to burn and destroy Use pitiperty of
