THE BARON OF RENFREW ABANDONED

OFF THE DUTCH COAST.

Natraet of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Dover, dated
the 21st of October :

" The cutter JEra, THOMAS Ora; Master, arrived here this
morning with the Second Mate and sixty of the crew of the B,ron
of Renfrew. CLARK reports that yesterday morning, at seven
o'clock, the wind blowing very bard at N.B. the ship parted from
her chain, and her bead cast toothe Eastward ; there being a great
deal of sea, and the after-part of her rudder loose, the ship would
not veer. At live rat. the ship being S.E. of the North Foreland,
about fifteen miles, driving under bare poles to the Southward, the
wind N. by W. the cutter Friends' Endeavour in company, the
Ara took out Mr. Haul , Second Palate, and sixty of the crew,
and in effecting this the /Era's and the ship's boat were loot. The
Ara staid by the ship until half-past eight, r.o. when she appeared
to be driving towards Graveines, and their having nearly seventy
people on board, and no boat, CLARK considered it expedient to
leave the ship, and steer for the English coast. We hope and trust
the Friends' Endeavour will arrive with the remainder of the crew.
The Ara has returned in the direct km of the ship, with two other
*utters, to render every assistance. Great praise appears to be due
to the Master of the Xra for his exertions."

Tell us, ye bright rob'd legions of the sky,
Who tend the snub of just men when they die;
Escorting swift their chariot-wheels of Lunn
Back to their Father, Goo, from wheel they cane—
Tell as, what unwont myriads throttled the air,
Who left their chrystal thrones to greet hint there;
What sweeter sounds unusual hail'd his flight,
What broader blazinp of Eternal Light;
Hnw glow'fil the gates of bliss, celestial ',amid,
Lifted their golden beads, with life inferned,
And, joyous, tun'd their hinges to make way,
When Htertscsr enteed on the realms of day!
How blest his lot the living here bewail ;
Arita sainted spirits, gone before him, bail :
Who clasps again his children's mother dear,
And cannot, though in Heaven, refrain a tear
Who finds that holy wife encircled round
With kindred Swears,' everlasting crown'd ;
While Baunawtee's Gammas with their foes adore,
AU reigning Kings without dissension more!
Ah ! well for him—but what, alas! their pain,
The widow'd Wife, the Children that remain ?
While earthly feelings still retain their dross,
The gain he finds 'minds them of their loss.
Say, will their pangs be lessened or repriev'd
By this, thee knowledge other he.rs a-e griev'd ?
Lo! Brother-Statesmen, mourn him; o'er his bier
CA24:4INQ and Lanspows drop the manly tear :
Though WTSDVAX, Gaarran, welcome him above,
And Prey and Foa communicate their love—
Thrre'l joy in Heaven, but grief on Earth below ;
And happy litrrist,ar is our cause of woo!
••• Enough, fly/ Muse :be liv'd the life of man,
His years protracted to its latest 'pant
Nor 4 that regret might reap unkind amends
°tithed himself—his faculties—his friends:—
With undiminish'd energy of mind,
E'en to the last, be labour'd fur his kind:
Taught private life each virtue to reveal;
And, as a Patriot, wattled the public weal !
Here kt my strains, but not my sorrow end,
For I, and all the world, have lost a Friend !

" The various branches of the fevenue have, taking
them in general, been coaspletelg competent to our
wants. The late alterations in the indirect taxes have
answered to all expectations in -the increase of their
produce, independent of the real relief which has there-
by been secured to commerce and agriculture. All dif-
ficulties in the collecting of the Personae Tates and
Exci-e have, as is seen from experience, almost com-
pletely vanished. They, wpm, at the introduction of the
new plan, unavoidable; the doipg away with, them has
nevertheless been the subject of my most antions cares;
it is with that intention that, after having consulted the
Atom of the Provinces, and having male use of the
power given me by 4w, I have more generally intro-
duced the farming of the Excise on the grinding of
corn ; the manner in which this arrangement has been
received, gives grounds for supposing that it will, in all
respects, fully answer the objects I had in view.
It is most satisfaitory to me that I am not obliged
to lay before your High Mightinesses a more unfavour-
able statement of the finances of the kingslom notwith-
standing the extraordinary expenditures which are the
necessary consequence of the disasters which befel us at
the beginning of the year. The accounts of the revenue
which will, ere long, be laid.hefore your Assembly, are
such as will justify me in giving a further relief to my
beloved subjects by reducing the taxes.
The operations of the Sinking Fund will, without
doubt, in a short time further the possibility of corn-
pleely liquidating the National Debt.
" Netherlands Mint supply is regular.—The cal-
ling in, and the putting out of circulation, of the French
coins, are brought to a close by the last regulations,
without on any point having given real cause for com-
plaint. The Issuing of new coins goes on steadily ;
and. for the greater convenience of common use, and
much wishing it, I propose to lay before you a plan for
increasing our series of gold coins, by adding one ad-
ditional kind.

--------
" The industrious application of the States' Commis-
sion to the framing of the National Code of Law, will
afford me an opportunity of again laying before your
Assembly an important measure of legislation.
" Several other subjects will require the attention of your High
filightinesses during your present sitting. I open it with the per.
suasios that it will not is any degree tend less to the good of the
country than former Sessions. I experience the most heartfelt
batisfaction Lt the Manner in which our countrymen confide with
VII. love in us, and support the Throne of the Netherlands; and
thus supported, High and Mighty Sirs, our united efforts, under
the support of Goo, and the continued blessings of peace, cannot
fail to promote tke glory of our beloved country."
The King then left the Chamber, being led out by the Commis-
sioners appointed for the occasion.
The Assembly was shortly after dismissed by the President.

sentence on the second, in a part of our itisptesstori of
yesterday. He sans, found Guilty, and sentenced* for
both offences, to fifteen months' tniprisoninent, and to
pay a fine of Five Hundred Pounds.
On sentente being pronounced;the prisoner addressed
the Court, and said that his health requited Write com-
forts; he hoped, therefore, th.tt he might be Flit in
some warm situation; he was /2 years of age, and 15
months' imprisonment would Men probabiy last his
time. Would the Court, therefore, give leave for him
to get apartments in the Governor's house?

which the prisoner stood was painful—it was intended
to be so; but there was a Prison Committee, and any
indulgence which they might see proper, they would re-

FROM THI 'TOILE.

PARIS, Dammam 24.
We think that some authentic details will not be read
without interest, which relate to a great personage who
for a long time was very near the Prince Constantine,
now Emperor of Russia. We speak of General Croutta,
born in one of the Prince's Islands, situated in the Sea
of Marmara, opposite the Seraglio.
A Russian Ambassador, who resided at Constan-
tinople, having recognised striking traits of genius in
young Croutta, took care of his education, and at-
tached him to his embassy. At his return to St. Peters-
burgh, he presented his protege to the great Catherine,
as being acquainted with the Greek, Turkish, Russian,
land French languages, and as being besides possessed
lof political and military talents. Cathy ine afterwards
advanced him, entered him in the college ()ISt. Peters.
burgh, and entrusted the education of the P, ince Con-
stantine to him. The latter knew how to appreciate
the great talents and qualities of Croatia, attached him
to his persots, and made him his Aide de•Camp. In
conversation he oftener gives him the title of Pater,
than that of Governor.
Six years ago, the Emperor Alexander being at
Warsaw, said publicly of Croutta,"Would to GOD
that I had many Generals like Croutta, for, independ-
ently of his talents, he is a martyr to labour."
Croutta has not shared the disgrace of C ipo d'lstria,

because Mince Constantine did nut con,ut iir the policy
of his brother. -
General Croutta is about .57 j ears ..f 47. e he is short,
bald, with a ltwen and penetrating blur rye. He is a
•tatesman and a goldrioldier. He inhabits, with Mince
Constantine, the Palace called Belveder nr Warsaw.

gg From the Straits of Gibraltar to the waters of Car-
thagena, ihe number of Colon. ibi in corsairs, large and
4mall, is very considerable. All our ships, whoie car-
goes are valuable, becorn- their prey, and, to co:nplete
our misfortune, those which are not laden they sink or
burn. We see landed on our coasts, every day, the un-
fortunate crews of ships taketi, sunk, or burnt. On the
3d ult. the Commissary of Marine of Almeira received
advices from different maritime points on the coast of
the kingdom of Grenada, in which it was announced,
that on the 2d, and on the morning the 3d, fifteen
vessels had been captured. These corsairs, having re.
solved to annihilate our mercantile navy, have taken
their measures so well, that no ship can escape them.—
They have armed small boats, which pass along the
coast touching the land, eater our ports, and carry off
ships. This has just happened at Las Rogaetas, close to
Almeirst, where they have seised in the port a large
three-masted vessel, which had taken refuge there."

COURT OF SESSION.

EDINBURGH. Dzcsams
!DEAL DECISION! Of Tag MS CAUSE.

By a verdict of a Jury, in March last, it was found
that the Deed of Entail and Trust Deed, which exclude
the present Earl of Fife from a considerable part of his
estates, amounting to 20,0001. per annum, and accumu-
lated rents since 180 S, were not the deeds of the grantee,
the late Earl of Fife. This verdict proceeded upon the
direction in law given from the Bench, that if they, the
Jury, were satisfied that one of the witnesses neither saw
the grantee sign, nor heard him acknowledge his sub•
scription, they must find these were not the deeds of the
grantee. The defendapts excepted to this direction, and
brought the cause into:the Court of Law for opinion.
The question of law having been ably argued on
both sides of the bar, the Judges gave their opinions
upon Thursday last. It was held unanimously, that it
was well settled in our law, and supported by our best
authorities, as well a% by a long series of consistent de-
cisions, that a deed is null if the witnesses, or tale of
them, neither see the gran:ee sign, nor hear him ac-
knowledge his subscription. And that, of consequence,
it was a right direction to the Jury, that if they were
satisfied the late E.arl of Fife did not acknowledge his
subscription to George Wtl•on, one at the imp u mental y
witnesses—it being admitted that he did not see the
Earl sign—they must find that these were rot the deeds
of the late Earl of Fife. _ _ _

The defenders also excepted to another point of the
Lord Chief Commissioner's charge, where he told the
Jury that it was his opinion 44 the acknowledgment must
be clear and explicit, and that he had not found any
case in which a virtual acknowledgment or equipollent
had been sustained." The Judges were also unanimous
in refusing this bill ; upon a fair consideration of the
whole charge, it must be considered correct. Any opi-
nion in regard to virtual acknowledgment was merely
obitur dictums, and not intended as a direction to the
Jury. The fact of acknowledgment had been left open
for their consideration in the concluding part of the
passage objected to, where it is said is that it was not
necessary to carry the doctrine so far in this case, as
according to the evidence of the two witnesses, if they,
the Jury, believed either of them. it did not appear that
there was any acknowledgment either express or virtual."
The Judges in the Court of Session have found that
the direction, in law, was correct; and that the verdict
annulling the deeds stands good. The Bill of Excep-
tions was therefore dismissed, and the Earl of Fife found
entitled to expenses.

BOW-STREET.

Gams Laws.—A person named Pierce, the •bailiff of a man
named Demie, appeared before Sir R. Bums, to an information
filed by Boyce Combe, Esq. for keeping a setting dog, for the pur-
pose of destroying game, not being authorised so to do. The ca.e
I proved by the informant and a man named Nichle, the owner of
the ground on which the dog was seen, was this ;—On the 11th
day of October, these two persons, Combe and Nickle, were in the
field of the latter, when they heard a shot fired. They proceeded
towards the spot, where they perceived the defendant and a young
Gentleman, named Deleroix, with guns in their hands, and two
pointers beating up the field ; this was the offence imputed.
The defendant said, he had the gun in his hand, for destroying
crows and other birds of that description ; but the dogs were not
his property.
Sat lt. litmus said, the dogs were then used by him, and there-
fcire he must be accountable for that conduct.—He was accordingly
fined live pounds, and 7s. costs.
Mr. Detest* then appeared to the information of the same mane

CASTLE FOR BES.

FROM THE DUBLIN CIIIRESP3IIDENT OF SATURDAY.
We regret to state, that a great portion of Castle
Forbes, in the county of Longford, the ancient resi-
dence of the Eirl of GRANARD, was destroyed on
Thursday morning, by fite. Our Correspondent informs
ui, that the fire originated in the kitchen chimney, and
at three o'clock, without any alarm having been given,
communicated to the bed-room of Lord FORBES.—
His L )rchbip must inevitably have perished, were it
not that a spaniel, whizh invariably slept in his room,
f►rtunately awoke him, before the flames had reached
his bed, but not before a great portion of the furniture
in the apartment had been destroyed.—The fire was
principally confined to the ancient part of the Castle;
and we are glad to learn, that the valuable library,
paintings, and family pl tte, have been saved.

WRITTEN lIT SIR Il CERT WETTING

You meaner beauties of the night,
That poorly satisfy our eyes,
More by your numbers than your light—
You common people of she
What are yot when the Moon shall rise ?
You violets which first appear,
By these your purple mantles known,
Much like proud virgins of the year,
As if the spring were all your own,
What are you when the Rose is blown?
You wandering chavnters of the wood,
Who fill the cares with nature's lays,
Thinking your passions understood
By weaker accents—what's your praise,
When Pbllomel her voice dotk raise?
So when my Princesse shall be seen,
In sweetnesse of her lookes and minde,
By virtue brat, then choice, a Queen,
Tell me if she were not design'
Th' eclipse and glory of her kind?

of which they were to be jointly interested. As a pre-
liminary step, the improvement was submitted to the
Directors of the Post-office, is the hopes that they
would approve of it, and adapt it in his Majesty's mail-
coaches ;• but the Directors not being of opinion that
the advantages were such as the inventor had repro
seated, had declined availing themselves of it. The
defendant had subsequently broken through the corn.
