last, in Anath Bay, on the notth-side of St. Domingo,
on a reef of rocks (unknown to any but the natives,)
which was created by the earthquake of 1212, and
extends four miles from the shore. Shortly after she
struck she bilged and went down ; and from a gale
of wind springing up during the ensuing night, few
of her stores were saved. Much difficulty prevailed
against saving the people, which was, hrisiever, hap-
pily effected. Captain MAitsnm. and his Officers came
home is the SNAKE.

THE FETE.—The streets of the metropolis were as
much crowded yettcrday as on any of the recent
mocessions, with people hastening westwards from the
most distant criarters. The Lawn, in St. James's
Park, was entirely thrown open to the publit, and
multitudes were enjoying their verdant promenade
till a late hour. The bridge over Constitution-Hill is
dedicated to naval triumphs, and inscribed with the
names of naval heroes, Smith, Saumarez, Strachan,
Broke, Collingwood, Duncan, St. Vincent, Howe,
&c. " Nelson of the Nile" is placed over the Royal
Booth, on a line with si Wellington" over the centre
of the gallery. The Temple of Concord has disap-
peared, and is now covered with v:liat is to form the
first part of the grand exhibitions of the fireworks. It
represents an ancient circular Gothic Castle, stir.
rounded with its appropriate towers, and surmounted
by battlements. All this is, after the representation
of war and siege, to vanish, and the edifice to peace
to shine out in all its beauty and splendour. Hyde
Park presented the aspect of a great country fair.
Two long ranges of booths were placed on the sides
of the road leading to the north of the Serpentine
river, and many clusters of them scattered about dif-
ferent parts of the Park. Chinese lanthorns were sus-
pended from many of the trees. The miniature fleet
lie in the river moored in a long line. Innumerable
butts of beer, and vast quantities of all sorts of provi-
,sions, were carried in on Saturday. The booths last
night were all lighted up, disposing of their various
stock, and the amusements of the Hyde-park Fair
were already begun.
This morning, from the wind veering to the S.W.
the weather appeared unpropitious, and it rained from
eight till near eleven, when the clouds dispersed, and
to the great j yof the public, the festivities commen%
ctd. The can d in the Park was covered with it num-
ber of enmities and four-oared cutters ; a boat-race
baud to form a put of the amusements.
