I PMI'S OP TOE LATE STORM.
Duat.tw, FRIDAY, Novelist= ao.-,..Wednefday
evening latl, three tranfports, .with volunteers for
the t Bth and 97th Regiments, chiefly from the South
Mayo Militia, failed from the Pigeon Houle Dock
for Liverpool. Yeaerday morning they had gained
In (mall an rMng, that they were difcernible from
the heights about Dunleary, and, dreadful to relate,
one of them, on board of which were 120 foldiers.
with feveral women and children, were driven on
the rocks under the battery at Dunleary Point. and
all perifhed except the crew and two foldiers, who
were preferved by taking to the boat. Among the
unhappy (offerers on this occafion we regret to find
the name of Lieutenant M‘Lsaw, of the 18th Re.
giment, who had charge of the recruits. He was a
young Officer of unqueflionable merit and uncommon
promife. Another veffel is Rated to have aruck on.
the white bank near the South Bull.

Further accounts (late, that a Parkgate vefrel, with
recruits for the 97th Regiment, foundered in the
gale ; alfo a brig, a (loop, and a very large Swedifh
chip, which had formerly been a frigate. In the
multiplicity of reports on this difirefling firbjeel, it is
alfo (aid, that two nails have foundered cif Killiney
Bay.
This morning the bodies of feveral foldiers, with
97 cn their buttons, were drifted on fhnre along the
coati in the neighbourhood of Black Rock and Dun-
teary.
Since writing the above, we have received more
particulars of this affliaing cataflrophe. The Roch-
dale tranfport, of Liverpool, was one of a fleet which
were conveying .to England the 97th Regiment, for
merly known as the (ren's Germans. YeQerday,
about three o'clock in the afternoon, fhe was ob
(erred from the Black Rock, in tke offing, and
evidently in dithers. Mufkets •were repeatedly fired
as fignals of dithers, but the fury of the elements
precluded the poflibility of any affiliance reaching
them.

The brig R.,,chdale, FinnGsna, is ion in Dublitt bay;
the crew and foldiers, confining of 220 perfons, being
the total number on board, all perithed. The Mary,
of Green Ink, the Trial, of Newry, and another
YOGI, n tme unknown, are alfo lott in Dublin Bay,
with all their crews.

This morning, at day break, the molt appalling
fcene was revealed. The thore iront Dunleary to
Black Rock was almoli literally covered with the
bodies of mess, women, and children ! Our readers
will thudder to hear that 267 vitStims were fwallowed
up in the waves; amongst whom we regret that we
are forced to (late, was Mak-rr O'Gt.aMt•CAs, of the
97th Regiment. There were alto z Lieutenants, 6
Serjeants, 2 drummers. 173 privates, 49 women, and
34 children ;in all z 67 ! The veitel lies doff to the
Power, and though her decks an: pored, her bottom
is completely fcooped through and through. It is a
moo remarkable circumftance, that though the wreck
mull have happened near the flws, not a angle foul
that we have heard of efcaped the d►eadful cats ftrophe.
It is aft:n;(l, :hough we have not equal means of
afcertaining its authenticity, that the Prince of Wales
Parkgate packet, lies a wreck at the back of Dun•
leery Point, and that upwards of 120 peanut were
loft in her. The Captain, two Officers, and forne of
the crew, it is laid, efcaped in the boat. On the
whole, perhaps no former period has to record a
more tremendous vifitation than that of the lan 24
hours. •

Pswzanca, Novasassa 23.—There are ruppored
to be twenty clutters !nit between the Breerons and
Ptdtkow. The Item of a van], having the name
Yarmouth, of Yarmouth, is swathed on (bore at the
Land's End.

Aaaanssw, Nov. 21.—The winter has fat in with
the greateft feverity, and during part if the week we
have had a deal of [now, with very inteofe frnll.
Yeflerday we had a violent llama from E.N.E. to
N.E. when it blew a tremendous gale, accompanied
with fleet and fnow. In the evening the gale abated,
the wind ((Lifting to N.W. and the fruit letting in as
intenfely as before. To the Northward there has
been a very great fall of (now, which lies feveral feet
deep on the roads, and in different places the com-
munication is nearly (topped. The highland road,
from Invernefs to Perth, we are informed, is altrge•
ther blocked up, and the two Diligences which run
between thefe places have been left by the way. The
weather has for fome time pait been uncommonly
boilternus and unfettled, and there arc very melan-
choly accounts from many places on the Eaft and
Welt coatis of Britain, of the lots and damages or
(hipping in the late violent gales. Of the unfort
number lately (handed, we are lorry to add the f
lowing particulars, of the wreck of two veffels be.
longing to this port :—On the zad of Oiftober, the
Diana, MITCHELL., which had gone to Sanday, to
load part of the wreck of the-Dutch frigate Utrecht,
(handed on that Ifland, was driven afttore in the bay
of Renwick, near the wreck. The crew was Caved, as
alto the rigging and materials, bin the %rad, it is
feared, will be totally lolt.—On Weelmfday Taft the
Luna, Yuet, from Montreal to this place, with a
cargo of AM, flour, wood, &c. in taking the bar,
fltuelt, and was mutt unfortunately forced afhore at
the back of the South. Pier; where, owing to the
very heavy Pea on the craft, particularly in the hard
gale of yefterday, the velfel is fo much damaged as
to render it very doubtful if the can be got off; and
a confiderable part of her valuable cargo it is feared
will be loft.

SCILLY, Nov. at.—During a moll tremendous
gale on the tgth, the Unity. Francis, from Brittol for
Plymouth, was driven on Iltore near St. Mary's, but
got cif after difcharging her cargo, which it da-
maged.
BIDDIFmtv, Nov. 22.—The followieg wallas have
been driven into this port, viz.
Good Intent, of St. Ives, with eoppet• ore, en (bore near Bode:
the reel loft, but nearly all the cargo fared—Soup Mary and
Jane, Thwaites, of New Yarmouth, (torn Plymouth for Heath...
Ichooner John, of Pembroke, from Youghaft for Milfird, both
towed into Clovcly, difinsfted—the Madan. Bear, of this port,
is arrived at Closely, in &lire& The Beavers Golifworthy,
broke from Nor mooring.. and carried away her asalts.-.the John
and Mary, Wall, from St. Ives for Swanks ; and the Lady Pits-
gerald, Gilmore, from Cork for BMA are arrived e. Applodore,
with all their flits fplit.

The following velrels received damage at Milford
on the 2 IR init. liZ.
The Draper, Phillips, from Drifted for Cardiff, drove on her
Auchon and bilged—Conndeo, Killomay, from Weymouth for
[ Dublin ; cargo !hilted, Ids of Alb, atc.-41ders, Carmichael, fro,..
; Briftol for Greenock, with the loraot fails, anchors, and c4bles,
! and is on more—Albion, Thomplou, from Gottenburgh for Dub
lin, with the of, of her anchors and eables—Besumitig, Francis,
from Cardiff for Liverpool, "ilk the ids ti fins.

Naweamt, Nov. 24.ah•About 150 fail of velTels
arrived yeflerday in the Tyne, one of which (a brig)
Aruck upon the Herd Sand, and tke life boat
brought away the crew-4he is thought to be the
Alexander trader, from London.
The Glafgow, Ott, of and from Leith, from
Gottenburgh, laden with iron .and deals, came on
(bore on Friday night Lail, on the rocks called the
Boots, near to Hartley. The crew, (except a boy,
who attempted to fwim on fhore and was drowned).
were laved, by remaining on board until the tide left
the vefrel—fhe is much damaged. but the cargo will
probably be laved. The Mailer reports, that he leEk
Gottenburgh r n the t4th infl. under convoy of the
Forreiler and Electra brig cutters, with a large fleet,
among which were fever a I tranfports with troops, and
that they feparated on Monday, when the Forrelier
(leered to the Southward, with her convoy.
The mailer of the Glafg,,w never recolleas being
out in fuch dreadful weather, as the (hip was almoll
always under water the whole way over ; arid when
the came on (bore, there was not a fail but what was
blown to rags.
On Friday laft a light brig from Peterhead, for
Sunderland, was driven on Ihore near Emory!' ;
fortunately the hand. are all !eyed. Another hose
vetrel was wrecked in Coldingliam hay, near Sr.
Abb's Head ; the mailer and one man laved ; eight
or nine, crew and pafrrngers, perifhed.
The Helen (loop, of Shields, has put into Brid-
lington iu ditirefs—mate wafhed overboard.

The feverity of the (form has prevented the ufnal
'regularity of correfpcndence and travellinz between
Edinburgh, Dumfries, and Cari Ar. The mail coaches
from thefe places have nit arrived regularly for force
days, and the mail has been difparehed on horfeback,
attended by the guard on a fecund boric.

The Manchefter and Carlifle Mail was detained by
fn :w fo as to 14: a dAy in•confequence. Mails
bad arrived at the latter place on Sunday morning
from Glafgow.

So early in the feafon, fo much fnow is nor remem.
bored. The flake: at Taunton, and iii many parts of
Devon and Somerfetatirc, were lately five inches in
circumference.

Nine miles from Holyhead, the Mail Coach, on
the 19th, thick raft in die (now, nor mold any help
extricata it until the next day, when thineen men
and many cart horfes were employe.i. The wind was
fo flrong, that the horfes woula not face i:, nor could
the men keep their feet.
On Friday week, about two o'clock in the morning,
one of the ft age coaches to the North was overfet,
near the 94th mile flone from London, by which three
outfide palfengers were much hurt, one dangernufly.
By the late heavy gales In much damage has been
done to feveial valuable oak and other timber trees,
on the eflate of Earl Yowls, near Tenbury, that it is
eflimAted 114 .1-crdlVp will Main a fors of nearly
to,oool. Confiderable damage has alfo been done to
the fruit trees in that neiglibourhood by the late heavy
fall rf fnow.

During the flOrm on Thurfday night !aft, the dark-
nets was In great in the theets of Dublin, that feveral
carriages were upfet, the drivers being unable to fee
their way, and fevar.4l ferious accidents weie the
confequence. In the number was the Lord Chancel-
lor's coach, on itr return from the Viceregal Lodge
in the Phoenix Park. Fortunately,. however, Lady
Matimiots, who was in the carriage, elcaped with
only a flight contntitm. Owing to the darknefs,..nd
the extreme feverity of the weather. only one of .the
Mails, the Belfaft. had arrived at Dublin, at three
o'clrck on friday afternoon, and the North Mail
going not, could not proceed farther than Santry,
about four miles from that city.
Two young gentlemen of fortune, the Hon. Mr.
E. and T. N. K. EN. had a difpute on Sunday even-
ing, at a ftibiciiption houfe in St. James's, and in
confequence of which a challenge was given, and
accepted in a few minutes, and the parties met to
fight by moon light in St. James's Park. They were,
however, prevented, and Mr. R. was held to bail.
Foot Raca.—C. R. Covssizr, Efq. of Charlotte-
firect, Firzruy-fquare, undertook, yetterday, for a
wager c.l fifty guinea-, with a Captain SMITH, to run
la mile in Live mitintes and a half At four Harts. The
gretrid v: as on the foot path between Paddit:gton
and Kilburn tot-11011re, a qual-ter of a mile of which
was meafttred. ;dr. C. weighs twelve none : he
scent the fiat quarter of a mile in one Minute, 16
fecunds ; the fecund in one minute 22 tecunds ; and
the third in one minute 43 fecnnds. He had to per-
form the other qua' ter of a mile in one minute t z
feconds, and he 101 l the match by a quarter of a mi
nute. The pedetliian w:ts anntr,:d 20 minutes
betwe-n each flags, but he L'.id not take half the time.
Bets were aphid the performance.
1 A great number of silver coin;, chiefly of the Ed-
wards of England, and Alc,,:inder 111. of Scotland,
I have been found lately in the courfe of the ltreet
now opening from George's4lreet to Union freer,
Aberdeen. A fecund depofit of the fame kind was
found on Tuefday fe'nnight. The workmen, in
digging near the (cite of Dyer's Hall, found an
earthen jar, containing nearly two thoufand p;eces of
various reigns and value. They are for the moll part
filver pennies (Dcnarii) of Edward I. IL and 111
lome of Alexander 111. of Scotland—and, it is Paid,
tome of Robert, whether I. or 11. we know not. Of
thole of Edward I. fome are of the Dublin coinage,
the King's head in a triangle, and having on the ob-
, verfe, Givitas Duliinie ; and fume, in addition to the
titles of Rex Anglia and Domino: Hibernia, have Dux
Aquitanis. Many of the coins are of bale metal (the
taro motets) but come are of very tine filter—and the
greater part are in excellent prefervation. Thole of
bale metal were known at the time by the defignation
Pollard:anti Crockardr, and were, as Knyghton informs
us, prohibited by tiatute 27th, Edward I. It was (up. I
pled, (urns
led, that thefe large of money had been depts.
fried in hiding places, during the continuance of the
Englifh army in Scotland in the reign of Edward 111.
But a filver coin of %teen Elizabeth, bearing date
103, having been found artrongfl them, prove that
goo years have not yet elapfed fince the lame
was villa/ed. A boy, employed in wathing away
the earth from fame of the Imaller pieces, found the
coin in quaion a 4.4 e, which he took for a corn
mon (billing. how it has happened, that fo largo a
turn of ancient money fhould have beep depofited
about eight feet beneath the furface, fo lately as the,
reign of been Mash it is tot eafy to eonjedure.
