THE ARCTIC EXPEDITION.

On the 9th March lass, at six o'clock, a. at. a countryman
who was employed gathering sea-weed on Irris shore, in the
parish of Clonmauny, county of Donegal, found a bottle which
had been thrown out by his Majesty's ship Puny, Capt. PA Aar,
in lat. 62. 8. N. long. 69. 27. W. The countryman, anxious to
ascertain the contents of the bottle, conceiving it c.intained some-
thing which might be valuable to him, instatit;y broke it, ;,rd
found a paper, on which was inserted the followilig, iu seven dif-
ferent languages:.

‘' His :Majesty's ship Fury.—Set off July, 1821, lat. 62. E. N.
long. 62. 27. W. At one, r. u. moderate bretzcs from the
Northward, dull misty weather, fleela in company.
W. PARRY, Commander."
This paper he gave to Mr. CHICHESTER, who immediately trans-
mitted it to the Admiralty. The shore where the bottle was
found is in lat. 55. 15. N. long. 7. 28. W.

It was'Captain Thomas NlAtsar, R. N. and not Captain F.
AIANIIT, who attended his MAJESTY'S Levee on Friday.
The pedestrian who had engaged to run four times round Win-
chester Race Course (eight miles) within an hour, completed the
task on Monday, in five minutes less than that time.
Coax EICHANGR, MARK-LANE, APRIL 22.—The supply of
Wheat this morning being small,. that of prime quality sold is.
per quarter higher than on this day sennight, and for such kind
the demand was tolerably brisk ; but there is no improvement
in price of the inferior descriptions, which composed the chief
part of what was at market. The Barley trade was heavy at
last Monday's prices, and especially for the stained and inferior
samples. Oats are front ls. to ls. 6d. per quarter dearer, the
arrivals during last week having been small. White Pens are
2s. per quarter higher. In Beans and Grey Peas no alteration.
