NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

GIBRALTAR' Nov. 22.—The Levant Star, °war, from the Gulf of
Lepanto to Liverpool, which arrived here yesterday, was plundered
off Mancini° the 25th ult. by a Greek schooner, of several articles
of ship's furniture, &c. Two vessels belonging to this port, recently
arrived, were also plundered by Greek armed vessels off Tunis.

ALNIIRA, Nov. 28.—Two South American armed schooners have

been cruising off this place some days: they have captured, sunk,
and ransomed several Spanish vessels. As their cruising ground is
off these Capes, no vessel can escape being overhauled. A Spanish
schooner, which was taken and ransomed for 400 dollars, is now
here, waiting an opportunity to get safe to Carthagena.
&Hewes:mt.—During the violent gale on Wednesday morning,
the Prussian vessel Albert, Captain Rarzaerr, while between the
Isle of Wight and Beachy Head, struck on a substance Boating
'beneath the surface of the water, supposed to be the weeded' some
vessel, but which, from the darkness, could not be ascertained. In
a few minutes the Albert had five feet water in her hold,. and
though both pumps were immediately going, the joint efforts of the
Master and crew, five In number, were ineffectual; ibe• vessel
having rolled on her beam-ends, the mainmast was cut away, but
the water made so fast, no exertion could save her, although a su-
perior vessel of her class, and provided with every means to render
her seawirthy ; the boat was now lowered with considerable diffi-
culty, and was half filled with water immediately.'Capt. liamtere
and crew were, however, obliged to betake themselves to ie, and in
a few minutes more the Albert went down. The open isoat, in
which they now were without any means of commanding its ma--
dons, was drifted by the violence of the sea for more than an boar
and a half, during which time they were closely passed by a three.
muted schooner, and a Hamburgh galliot, who sbewed his colours;
but both vessels bore away before the wind,without endeavouring to
-lend assistance to the unfortunate sufferers. At length the Doris,
of Oldetsburgh, Captain CONINI ALLAR; came up, who most
humanely laid his ship to, and after many attempts four of. the
-sailors managed to jump from the boat icto the chains of the Doris.
Captain RrrzLArr was caught underneath thabowsprit, and drawn
on board with a noosed rope, perfectly insensible; but the last ha
the boat, a young man of 18, in attempting to gain the vessel, was
struck by her bows, and sunk immediately. Captain Revacers is
dreadfully bruised, and he and the crew were taken into Dover,
deprived of everything but their lives

THINK ON THE POOR.

As you 4it in warm circle, secure from the tempest,

Nor feel the k.en 'torn, as it drifts on the near,
Yt t &hut not your door 'gainat the wandering stranger,

•
lint learn frum your blessings to pity the poor !
Viien the cold northern blist blows both chilly and ruddy,
And the rain patters bard at your windows and door,
As you hear the blast howl, look around on your comforts,
A..tl heave a kind sigh for the iturgent poor!
Oit lift up the latch of chill Poverty's dwAling,
Explore the sad mansion where Care sits obscure-
-13 hold tears of wAnt wa,h the withering bosom,

bun thick of your SaNtoua, and give to the poor !
sinter presents a sad gloomy dark aspect,
clusters the icicles hang at the door ;
berries they grace the brown thorn for the songster,
Bat you must relieve the hard lot of the pour I
Dl.mentber that soon we must sink in that dwelling
\Vh.re riches no sort of distinction procure :
'Mt leveller. Death, and the grave, our last mansion,
Must mingle our dust with the dust of the poor !
Dzs unpurt.
