The following letter relltes to the loss of the Colville Wee
li:charnel' :

rOSTLAND, Nov. 25.
" Sta—l have the most unpleasant task to inform you, that on
Tuesday (yesterday), we had the Colville, Indianian, wrecked on
our beach, and am sorry to say that all on board perished. We
have already found sixteen bodies, and among the number is one of
:man with a collar of a shirt round his neck, and the following in-
nription, as well as I can snake out, on it—' Mr. Gosling, pasten-
pr, per Colville, John Wilson, master.' And on another part—
' The address of my friends is at Mrs. Wilson's, Mile-end; and at
)Jr. Gosling's, No. 63, Leather-lane, Holborn, London.'
" I have taken the body and put it into a decent shell, and intend
burying it, unless I hear anything to the contrary by the next post.
'ins bodies are all naked, and all of them will be put in shells and
laked. Perhaps Mr. Wilson, the master, may be among-the nuns-
t,r. If a person that knew him were here, he might be identified.
will do my utmost to keep all the bodies from being buried, if
..ey can be kept with propriety, until after the arrival of the first
,:suing post, which would be time enough for a person to arrive.

We have hid, I think, the most heart-rending scene that tver
r' es beheld here. The sea passed all over a small village, and car-
-,rd away houses, men, women, and children, before they had
:me to get out.
Please to send immediately, should you know anything of the
person I have mentioned, and direct to me, ' Mr. White, builder,
Portland, Dorset or, if any person should come, they can call on
I. W. Weston, isq. Weymouth, who is Agent to Lloyd's, and I
;:t under him at Portland.—l am, Sir, your most obedient humble
saran!, " W. WHITE."

The following extract of a letter front on board the ship Victory,
Captain Finer, bound from Calcutta to London, dated the 24th of
November, exhibits a remarkable instance of nautical skill and self-
lossession, under trying circumstances, as well u of good fortune :
—" On Monday evening, the 22d, the wind came round front S. W.
to S. and then S.S.E. when we were off the Needles, and blew very
hard. By carrying sail, we weathered the point of St. Catherine's,
sa the Isle of Wight ; but it being impossible to weather the Ower
Fonds, and having a weak worn-out Lascar crew, arising from our
hog and tedious voyage, the only hope of saving the ship was in
letting into St. Helen's Roads, which was attended with considers.
*difficulty, it being night, and blowing hard. We, however,
achieved it, and came to at nine o'clock, PAC but could not get the
ire and maintop sails furled, with the whole ship's company, before
eleven o'clock, eat. Finding we drove, we let go a second anchor,
then blowing a severe gale, and a high sea running. At seven A.X.
yesterday, the cable parted, when a new sheet-anchor was let go,
:•Ittl the ship rode, blowing as severe a gale as ever was remem-
I), red by any one on board. The Captain, seeing that the ship
ale rot ride long, prepared to do all that remained in his power.
At this time the buoy of the Horse-dean Sand was just a-stern of
as, on which, if the ship touched, neither ship, cargo, nor crew,
could have been saved. At nine the ship began to drive both
anchors ahead, and was soon after close to the buoy of the Sands,
when we cut the cableand made sail under a storm stay-sail, and
Just as she gained way, she struck and injured her rudder. We
tow ran up for Spithead, with a signal of distress flying, hopini a
pilot would come off. The ship was got to leeward of ace shinfing,
and the stream-anchor let go, in the hope that it might lus;th ter un-
til a pilot came off. The cable ran ea, and parted on the instant.
Could the ship have been steered, or had a pilot been on board, she
might have been got into the harbour. This being found impossi-
t;e, the Captain ordered all sail to be got on her, for the purpose of
naming the ship on shore under the Hospital. She went on shore
Cost under the Fort, en the larboard entrance of Portsmouth bar-

Jr?l.o fortunately with very little damage, having only her rudder
nhipped, and the iron tiller bkoken. She is now lying nearly up-
r:ght on the beach ; she has rfht made an inch of water, and all the

c:ty on board Is going on as usual." The Victory is insured at
Calcutta to the amount of sixteen lacks of rupees (X 200,000). She
n laden with indigo arid specie, chiefly to the comigntuent of
Mews. Fletcher, Alexander, and Co.

It seems that Prince HOHENLOHN, considering the
Old World too circumscribed a field for the exhibition
of hismiradesi has laid America also under contribution
to his holy fame. A Priest of the Germanized name of
KOIILMAN, who dates his letter from some College in
the United States, has furnished a curious and comical
history of a supernatural cure wrought on the body of
a Airs. MATTINGLY, sister of the Mayor of Washington,
lii:ough the agency of his Serene Highness of Bem•
berg! With the disgusting details we shall not offend
cur readers. Suffice it to say, that just after the mas-
ter of the virgins restored to health in Ireland some
t:gh teen months back, Mrs. MATTINGLY one morning
c tiered up prayers in the capital of the United States
exactly at the moment Prince ALEXANDER offered up
Mass in Germany, and immediately leapt out of bed,
rot only perfectly well, but quite angelic ! The other
Wonders too which she performed are in themselves so
InLch beyond the regular course of nature, that she
srodd appear to have obtained the faculty of working
miracles herself, by being the subject of one.

LAW REPOR P.

bOtIRT OF CHANCERY, DECiI4BEE 4.

POWELL V. BONNER. •
The question in this case, which has for a long periOd
stood for judgment, is, whether Mr. Phi hips, who had
purchased an estate, sold by order of the Court, was,
under the circumstances, entitled to any and what com-
pensation. The Master was desired to sell the estate,
which belonged to an infant, and at the sale it was re-
presented that the estate was within a ring fence, and
that an iron rail-way ran through it. The latter repre-
sentation respecting the iron rail-way appeared to be
incoriect, and upon this fact Mr. Phillips rested his
claim for compensation.
The Loan CHANCELLOR now stated his opinion to be,
that as Mr. Ellis, a Solicitor of this Court, knew that
no iron rail-way ran through the land (although prepa-
rations had been made for the purpose) at the time he
made the succes-ful bidding for Mr. Phillips at the sale,
no compensation ought to be allowed. At the same
time, the Court could not bind Mr. Phillips by the bid-
ding, and he might be at liberty to reject the bargain if
he pleased. He would not allow the costs.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, DECEMBER 4.
PARKIN V. CHAMBERLAIN.

This was an action for money, had and received to
the plaintiff's use. The plaintiff was the deputy clerk
of the parish of Mary-la-bonne, under Mr. Tyler, who re•
ceived the appointment of clerk from the Duke of
Portland, as a, re.% ard for long and faithful services,
and himself resided at Windsor. The defendant was'
sezton, and as such ought to have paid the fees, de-
ducting his salary, to the plaintiff, by whom they were
tuually paid into Mr. Tyler's bankers. The defendant,
as was alleged, had omitted to pay these fees, and in
consequence the plaintiff was dismissed for not making
good his own payments, and now sought to recover the
amount of dm.: fees which he should have received from
the sexton.

The LORD CHIEF JUSrICE was of opinion, that Mn
Parkin could not support the action, as the fees be-
longed not to him, but to Mr. Tyler, there was no
privity between him and the defendant.
The plaintiff was accordingly nonbuited, before any
sta'ement of the defendant's case was made.
