Every day brings us some new instance of the
shameful and gross neglect with which our Ministers
treat the commerce of this country. They have suffered
the United States to obtain the first fruits of a ben&
ficial commercial intercourse with the Independent
Colonies of South America ; they have witeessed
France forming a commercial treaty with the United
States on the basis of reciprocity of interest and li-
berality, which is likely to injure us considerably.—
But this is not the worst ; for so totally indifferent are
they to the commercial interests of this country, that
they suffer our merchant ships to be plundered by a
piratical banditti, while we have a naval peace esta-
blishment ample enough to protect it in every quarter
of the globe.
It was but the other day we stated that the little
protection our merchant ships had in the Atlantic
was owing to the spirited exertions of the Govern-
ment of the United States, which had fitted out
some active cruizers against the pirates; and we now
have to record the fact, that the English traders at
Bahia are indebted for their personal safety and the
preservation of their property to a French vessel
lying off that port. The latest accounts from Bahia
state that it was likely to be the scene of an imme-
diate contest between the Brazilians and the Portu-
guese. The English merchants were leaving their
country houses, and going to reside in the Lower
Town. They were laying in a good supply of pro-
visions, as all communication was cut off with the
country, and fresh beef was very high.
A French 64 gun ship was at Bahia ; the Captain
had made the offer of his ship to the British mer-
chants for their protection, whenever they might
think proper to leave the town ; bis boats would at-
tend six hours each day, to receive such persons as
were desirous of leaving Bahia. The British mer-
chants had called a meeting, and stated that they
would accept the French Captain's offer in a few days

Accounts have been received this morning from
Hull of a very distressing nature, in regard to the
Greenland whale fishery, stating, that seven ships
were totally lost, 14 remained in the ice not expected
to get out, and eleven were missing. The account
also states, that the fish they had caught averages
about 124-tons.

Liars hics.mr.n left town this morning at six
o'clock, for his Lordship's seat in Scotland.
Lord Stnstotrrn left town yesterday, for his Lord-
' ship's seat in Gloucestershire, and was to sleep at Ox-
ford last night.
The Duke of WELLINGTON is much better, but his
Grace has not been out since he had an audience of
his MAJESTY on his return from Scotland.
Sir CHARLES LONG and Mr. PEEL had audiences

Livaaroto., Szrr. 10.—The True Briton, HARVEY, hence for
St. John's, N. B. was abandoned at sea the 25th ult. in lat. 55.
long. 90. and it was supposed she would go down in two hours
after the crew left her. They have arrived here in the Hebe,
from Quebec. The following particulars of the loss of the True
Briton are communicated by Captain Ha aver :—After being
out 18 dayt, and having reached lat. SS. N. long. 30. W. the ship
was struck down on her beam-ends by a heavy sea, in the night
of the 24th ult. The gale continued, and next day she sprung a
leak : all hands were put to the two pumps, but the water gained
on them ; the vessel now running before the wind. The water-
casks, &c. were by midnight floated in the hold, and the ballast
covered with water, which increased to a depth of four feet. It
was then found that the vessel bad started a butt on the starboard
quarter, and worked very much in the after-run. At live nest
morning, having lost all power of her helm, she fell, water-logged,
on her beam-ends; and with much difficulty the long-boat was
launched, and all bands, 18 in number, got into her, with only
four small oars, and a very small supply of provisions, and a
compass: a tremendous sea was running, which obliged them to
keep before the wind. At nine in the morning they were film-
' mutely picked up by a brig, the Sally, of Harrington, Captain
Dertnsuite, from Dublin, bound to Miramichi, who, by great
exertion and with meek difficulty, saved them from their perilous
situation. On the 29th this vessel fell in with the Hebe, Captain
Nixon, bound for this port, who took them on board, and treats sl
them with great humanity.

His Serene Highness immediately set off for Rams-

In consequence of the LORD CHANCELLOR'S deci-
sion in favour of the Trustees of the British Museum,
the latter are going to build two wings in the garden
behind, 315 feet long by 35 feet wide. The estimated
expense is £200,000, which the Government will ad-
vance by instalments of £20,000 a year during ten
years. The present house is not to be pulled down,
but repaired and beautified, so as to correspond as
nearly as possible with the new work. The library,
the Townley collection of marbles, and those things
that are the heaviest, are to be removed into the new
wings, so that only the light articles will be in the
present house.
Cumberland Gate; the great northern entrance to
Hyde Park, is about to undergo a very great improve-
ment—it is said at the sole expense of Mr. HOPE,
whose classical taste and princely munificence are so
well known in the fashionable world.
The foundation is laid out for the new Union Club
House, on the north side of Cockspur-street, nearly
opposite Spring-gardens. It will have a grand front
with pillars.
The College of Physicians is to be on the south side
of Pall-mall East, at the back of the Union Club.—
Both the above buildings will have a front that will
face the east, so as to form one side of a street to run
from Coekspur-street te Pall-mall East.
The Union University Club, at the corner of Suffolk-
street, is proceeding very rapidly.
