It is reported that Russia has engaged to support
the cause of FENDINANU VII. in Spanish America,
with a squadron, including six ships of the line. and
an army ut from 13 to ‘.;:st,ooo men, in consideration
of thtl cession of Old and New Caletornia, the island
of Minorca, and certain commercial advantages by
Siain to Russia.
Fears are entertained at the India House fir the
safety of four valuable ships. The LORD CATHCART
on the Ist of March spoke a ship, name not mention-
ed, in the Bengal River. This vessel had just arrived
from China, and affirmed that the BARROSA, with
three other ships, had been lost in the China Seas,
in a very heavy Typhoon.—lt is known that the
ELPHINSTONE and %samara, regular Indiamen, and
the &titans* and ANNA extra ships, were expected
in those seas at a period which would tally precisely
with that assigned to the above disaster. Nothing
was known as to the late of the crea 6. The insurance
on them at I.Lovo's is very heavy.
In the violent gale on the afternoon of Tuesday
se'nnight, the Ellen, of Swansea, MORGAN &VAN,
master, foundered in Tenby-bay, and melancholy to
relate, the whole on board (eleven persons) perished !
She was seen about two miles from the shore, with a
fig.', hoisted as a signal for help ; but the sea running
i:tlcommonly high, no boats could get to her, and
she went down ! This vessel was stranded on Crede
Sands, in Barnstaple-bay, on the Saturday before,
w!!ere she discharged her cargo of culm, and was
only got off on the morning of the day she was lost.
S--:en men from the shore, employed in getting her
rf, could not afterwards be relanded, and were
cl;;igecl to proceed to sea with her, most of whom
have left families.

S urday as three men employed on the new works
carrying on at Sheerness Dock-yard, were deicer'.
d:ng i:: the diving-bell, some accident occurred, and
the sigma to be drawn up not being understood by
Ele person above, two out of the three were unfortu-
r:cely drowned ; the one who was saved made his
r.:ape from under the bell, which the others were un-
to effect ; as soon as recovered, the bodies were
Lketi to the surgery, and means used to restore ani-
tr..rion, but unhappily without effect.

Our Readers will recollect that Lord FOLKSTONE
!rated some time ago in Parliament, that, in conse-
cuence of orders received from Lord Sicut,:trrti by
Le Gaoler of Reading, the latter had refused to
allow him, though a Magistrate, to visit toe State
l'figrners. At the Quarter Sessions held at Reading
G;. :Le 18th instant, a regular complaint was pre-
ferred by Lord Foutsrors, that on two occasions he
had been retnsed access to the COunty Gaol, contrary
to the provisions of 31st Geo. 111. c. 46. The Gaoler
reprimanded for his misconduct, and the Court—
Re,oked.
That in consequence of the submission of Mr.
16talf, and his promise that his miseonduct shall not be repeated,
c.:d considering that he has acted only in compliance with orders
w4icik he might think himself bound to obey, but which being
