ABERDEEN, JANUARY 10.

The vessel which was driven ashore, as mentioned
in our last, proves to be the Danish schooner Good-
enough, which had been captured by the Moreland
Swedish, privateer, and sent for Marstrand, with a
prizemaster, his son, and three men on. board. They
were soon after overtaken with a storm from E. and
E. by S. and on Saturday last was driven on shore on
the rocks at Cove, to the southward of this place.—
Previous to her coming ashore, the prizemaster's son
was washed overboard ; and afterwards the prize-
master himself, in endeavouring to bring' the vessel
jute a creek among the rocks, was thrown from the
bows, and perished. The other three men were with
difficulty sated by the people on shore ; there being
no possibility of getting near the vessel, which lay
under a tremendous rock, they were hauled up by
ropes. The vessel soon went th .pieces, and hardly
any part of her cargo, or materials has been saved.
The following Aberdeen Vessels were expecied to
sail, from their different loading ports in North Ame-
rica as follows :—The ship Neptune, Lawson, and
galliot George, Keith, on or about the 130 Novern.
ber—the Seven Sisters, Brownie, nearly loaded.= the
19th November ; but the Lion, Allen, was not then
likely to get her cargo completed, the time of her
sailing consequently uncertain.
The sloop Isabella and Margaret, John Milne, of
and from this place, to Inverness, with porter and
other goods, struck a reef of rocks near Lossiemouth,
about two o'clock in the morning of Wednesday last.
The crew saved in their boat, but the vessel and the
greater part of her cargo feared, to be lost.
The brig Eliza, Bruce, of and from this place, to
Pictou, was driven ashore a .few miles to the eastward
of Halifax, about the midule of October. The crew
.saved, but the vessel not expected to be got 6ff ;--
every assistance, we learn, was offered for saving the
materials.

On Saturday last, a boat was cast ashore near
Newburgh, but the vessel's name to which it hal be-
longed was so much effaced, as not to be legible, al-
though it appeared to belong to Leith, which was
painted on the outside of the stern, as was the name
James' on the inside.

The same day, a boat, carvel built, with white pain-
ted bottom and green paint stroke, was found at the
mouth of Don ; the name on the stern likewise ille-
gible : the boat appeared to be American built, and
to have been long in the water.
The Atlas, Gibbon, of this place, from Stockholm
to Newcastle, was put to Cromarty in the late gale.
On Monday last, a Danish cutter privateer is re-
ported to have hailed the vessel employed as a float-
ing light on the Bell Rock, to know where he was,
having, as it would appear, been driven on this coast
in the late severe gale; and lost his reckoning, which,
we hope, may soon be corrected fur him by some of
our cruizers.

Arrived at Peterhead, on the 27th ult. a Danish
brigantine, bound to Leith Roads, prize to ille Alex-
andria man of war. She is last from Gottenburgh,
with nine or ten other prizes. The people on boarcl
mention, that a cartel arrived at Gottenburgh from
Norway, and the men in her were divided amongst
our fleet, the oldest of them seat to Britain in the
prizes. There is hardly getting provisions in Nor-
way at any rate.

from Stockholm, bound to Newcastle, in attempting
Fraserburglitharbour on the 31st ult. rug on the back
of the pier, and it is apprehended that she must un-
load the whole of her cargo, consisting of tar, iron,
&c. before she can proceed to Newcastle.
