"
On the 28th ultimo a large brig, with sugar and cotton, from
the West Indies for Belfast, put into Portnessock, very leaky,
both pumps scarcely able to keep her afloat. She had previously
struck upon a rock on the Irish coast, but afterwards got off,
and was obliged to run for the above place. It is feared the
sugar will be entirely lost ; but the vessel, it is expected, after
discharging her cargo, and undergoing .some little repairs, will
be enabled to proceed to her port of destination."—Tbe Ameri-

A letter from Switzerland, dated May 30, says—
" The sect of the Methodists had found pretty nume-
rous adherents in the Canton of the Vallais ; but they
have greatly diminished since the Government had
deprived the Vicar of Aubonne of. his office,. because
he endeavoured to propagate the doctrines of his sect,
and has ordered a zealous Englishwoman to quit the
Canton, who had taken upon herself to deliver books
to young Clergymen, &c. The notorious schismatic,
Malan, of Geneva, it is said, has now set up for a
worker of miracles."

A few days ago we gave an extract from Lloyd's List, an-
nouncing the loss of the Lark, beams (not Hits, as stated by
mistake), bound from Jamaica for Belfast, when all on board
perished, except one passenger. Mr. Hoax Entente, the pas-
senger alluded to, has arrived at Belfast, on his way to his fa-
ther's, near Ballymoney, and gives a melancholy description of
the sufferings they endured. It appears that this small schooner,
sixty tons burden, upset on the evening of the 11th of April, in
a severe gale, when scudding under bare poles. There were on
board—lVltuast locus, a native of Fiieshire, master; Jamas
Moose, a native of Belfast; ALICSANDLS HILL, a native of Bal.
lycastle ; JANS Prreason, a Norwegian; and a man of colour,
seamen ; Mr. Matcotre bliGaraoa, a native of Scotland ; and
Mr. lir cH Fut:rots, as ahovementioned, passengers. When the
vessel upset, the rigging was immediately cut, and the fore-
mast going overboard, she righted, but full of water, the sea
making a clear passage over her; her cargo being cotton-wool,
kept her afloat. In this emergency, the people on board clung
to the rigging, but had not the means of getting either food or
water. In the middle of the night, the black man died in Mr.
FULTON'S arms. Same time afterwards, JAMES Mooing and
another seaman died in a state of delirium, and were swept
overboard. Next day, Mr. Mi GREGOR, the passenger, also died
delirious. At this time, when there were three human beings
alive on the wreck, a vessel came in sight, but she inhumanly
proceeded on her course without giving any assistance.---Vhis
vessel proved to be the Candi:l),ot Gibraltar, was bound to Ca-
diz from the Ilavannah ; her master's name is Tsavxaso, a na-
tive of Italy].—ln some hours after, the other seaman died de-
lirious. The Captain lived for about 36 hours, when, &tiding
his end approaching, being quite exhausted, he shook hands with
Mr. FULToN, and desired, if he should survive, that he would ac-
quaint his wife with his fate, and of his affection for her in that
awful moment: he soon after sunk down, and was also washed
overboard. Futruw, who is a young man and very stout made,
was now left alone in this dreadful situation, up to his middle in
water, without any sustenance or prospect of relief. He for-
tunately retained his self-possession, though frequently tempted
to abandon all hopes of life. Ile was dying of hunger and thirst;
the only food he got was a dead rat, which he devoured vora-
ciously; this, however, was probably the means of saving his
life. After having been on the wreck three days and nights, the
American brig Susan Jane providentially came in sight, and her
humane master, SAMUEL Fair AN lost not, a moment in send-
ing his boat to the wreck, and tookl Pima on board his vessel,
' where, by great assiduity and judicious treatment, he was gra-
' dually restored. The Susan Jain was bound to Cadiz with Spa-
nish troops on board, where they arrived in safety. The British
Consul at Cadiz, Josses! !Coax, Es generously did everything
' in his power for Mr. FloAost providing him with cloths, and
other necessaries, and procuring! him a passage bonze to his
• country and friends.—Belfast News Lesser.

a Philadelphia audience, a most flattering testimony of ask re-

house was filled with.beauty, fashion, and taste. Indeed we de
not recollect, for years past, to have witnessed a more brilliant
row of boxes. He -entered upon his crutches, amidst universal
acclamations. After this had subsided, be wok his sear, and in
a short and neat address, stated the object of his visit to this
City, and the nature of the entertainments which be was about
to offer for the evening. He then proceeded, in a very spirited
and vivacious manner, to his readings, recitations, songs, imita-
tions, &c. and for about two hours kept, the house entranced
admiration at the versatility, and, if we may use the term, at
the elasticity. of his genius. The whole was co:Outlet% by a feel-
• ing parting address, amidst universal rt."

but by the evidence of lUr. Cwaates Wuartme (Collector for
the Coast business inwards and outwards); asarWr, Titst.ts
Mounts '(one of the Surveyors-General-olthe atobins), rt 10-
pokes that there is a possibility Of introducing foretell' eons bho
vessels carrying on the trade coastwise, particularly from Itehnd, .
as it is not the practice to measure British or Irish grain either
'into or out of the vessel, hut to rely upon the declaration of the
Captain of the. vessel, and the ordinary cockets,-which are not.
examined with attention. •
The mode in which any such- fraud an be committed must •
be by the British or Irish vessel either touching clandestinely at ..
some foreign port, and taking in a quantity Of corn to mix with ."
thedeclared cargo (suck declaration speeifying a less quantity= •
than is actually taken on board), or by meeting some foreign
vessel at sea, and taking in a supply there, without touching at .
any port. Such a process in either case would unquestionably
be attended with many difficulties; and from the number of per=.,
sees on board who must necessarily be acquainted with the
fraud, must be extremely liable to detection; but as It is repre- •
seated to be not absolutely Impracticable, your Committee deem
it a subject which deserves the attention of the moseconversent
