ARRIVAL OF MARQUIS WELLESLEY IN

DUBLIN.

The new Lord Lieutenant, the Marquis WELLES•
LEY, arrived at Howth on Friday night, and was to
make his public entry into the. City of Dublin, by
Summer-hill, on Saturday, at twelve o'clock.
The LORD MAYOR aad Corporation would proceed
from the Mansion-house at eleven o'clock to meet the
Noble Marquis.
Mr. JOHNSTONE, Private Secretary to the Marquis
WELLEsunr, and who is also said to hold the situa-
tion of Steward of the Household, arrived at Dublin
on Thursday, accompanied by Mr. BLARE.
All the carriages and liveries of the new Lord
Lieutenant are to be made up in Dublin: the livery
buttons of the Noble Marquis will bear the impres-
sion of the Shamrock alone.

New York Papers arrived this morning to the 9th
November, bringing the following Abstract of the
PRESIDENT'S Speech to Congress:
" The progress of our affairs since the last Session
has been such as may be justly claimed and expected
under a Government deriving all its powers from an
enlightened people, and under laws formed by their
representatives on great consideration, for the sole
purpose of promoting the welfare and happiness of

their constituents. In the execution of these laws, and
of the powers vested by the Constitution in the Exe-
cutive, unremitted attention has been paid to the
great-object to which they extend, in the Conce►ns
which are exclusively internal : there is good cause
to be satisfied with the result. The laws have had
their due operation and effect in those relating to
Foreign Powers.
4, I am happy to state, that peace and amity are
preserved with all, by a strict observance, on both
sides, of the rights of each, in matters touching our
commercial intercourse. Where a difference of opi.
nion has existed in any case as to the conditions On
which it should be placed, each party has pursued
its own policy, without giving just cause of offence
to the other.

By an Act of the 31st March, 1815, so much of
the several Acts as imposed higher duties on the ton-
nage of foreign vessels, and on the manufactures and
productions of foreign nations, whenimported into
the United States in foreign vessels, than when im-
ported in vessels of the United States, was repealed ;
when the nature of commerce between the United
States and every other country was taken into view, it
was thought that this proposition would be considered
fair; and even liberal, by every Power.—The orts
of the United States corisist generally of articles of the
first necessity and of raw materials. Many considera-
tions of great weight give us a right to expect that
this commerce should be extended to the colonies as
well as to the European dominions of other Powers—
with the latter, especially with countries manufac-
turing, the advantage was manifestly on their side;
an indemnity for that loss on our side was expected
from a trade with the colonies.

" Such was the basis of our system, as established I
by the Act of 1815, and such its true character. In
the year in which this Act was passed, a treaty was
concluded with Great Britain, in strict conformity
with its principles in regard to her European domi-
nions : to her Colonies in the West Indies, and on
this Continent it was not extended. The British Go-
vernment claimed the exclusive supply of those Co-
lonies ; to this claim the United States could not con•
sent, and, in consequence, each party suspended the
intercourse in the vessels of the other, by a prohibi-
tion which still exists. The same conditions were
offered to France, but not accepted: her Govern-1
ment has demanded other conditions more favourable!
to her navigation, and which should give extraordi-
nary encouragement to her manufactures and pro-
ductions in the ports of the United States: to thew it
was thought improper to accede.

t‘ It is much to be regretted, although a negocla-
don has been long pending, such is the diversity of
the views entertained on the various points, that there

does not appear to be any reasonable prospect of its
early conclusion. It is my ditty to state a cause of
very great regret, that very serious differences have
occurred in this negociation, respecting the constric-
tion of the eighth Ankle of the Treaty of 1805,
whereby Louisiana was ceded to the United States ;
and likewise respecting the seizure of the Apollo, in
1820, for a violation of our revenue laws. The claim
of the Government of Trance has excited no less sur•
prise than concern, because there does not appear to
be a just foundation fur it in either instance.

" The principles of the system of reciprocity,
founded on the Law of the Slst March, 1815, have
been since carried into effect with the King of the,
Netherlands, Sweden, Prussia, Hamburgh, Bremen,
Lubeck, and Oldenburgh.
" The Government of Norway has, by an ordinance,
opened the ports of that part of the dominions of the
King of Sweden to vessels of the United States, upon
the payment of no other higher duties than are paid
by the Norwegian vessels. The question concerning
the construction of the first article of the Treaty of
Ghent has been, by a joint act of the Representative,
of the United States and of Great Britain, at the
Court of St. Petersburgh, submitted to the decision
of his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Russia; the
result of which has not yet been received.
la With Spain the Treaty of February 22, 18111, has
been partly carried into execution : possession of East
and West Florida has been given up to the United
States. It has been seen with much concern, that in
in the performance of these duties a collision arose
between the Governor of the territory and the Judge
appointed for the western district.
" In compliance with an injunction of the law of
the Sd of March, three Commissions have also been
appointed, and a Board organized, for carrying into
effect the 11th Article of the Treaty above recited,
making provisions for payment to such of our citi-
zens as have well-founded claims on Spain 3 this Board
has entered on its euties, and made some progress.
" The Government of his Most Faithful ►Majesty,
since the termination of the last Session of Congress,
has been removed from Rio Janeiro to Lisbon, where
a Revolution had occurred, similar to that in Spain.
" It is understood, that the Colonies in South Ame-
rica have had great success, during the present year,
in the struggle for their independence.
" In conducting the financial operations of the
year, it has been found necessary to carry into effect
a loan of five millions of dollars : this sum has been
raised at a premiam of five dollars, fifty-nine hun-
dredths per cent. upon Stock, bearing interest at the
rate of five per cent. per annum.

" A considerable increase of domestic manufac-
tures, by diminishing the importations of foreign, will
probably tend to lessen the amount of the public re-
venue. It cannot be doubted that the more cempleat
our internal resources, and the less dependent we are
on foreign Powers Tor every national, as well as do-
mestic purpose, the greater and more stable will be
the public felicity, by the increase of domestic
manufactures.

tg The examination of the whole coast, for the con-
struction of permanent fortifications, from St. Croix to
the Sabine, will be completed in the present year. Due
progress has been made in the construction of vessels
of war, according to the law provided. Deeply im•
pressed with the blessings we enjoy, and of which we
have such manifold proofs, my mind is irresistibly
drawn to that Atasionxv BEING, the great source
from whence they proceed, and to whom our most
grateful acknowledgments are due.

The new Government of Columbia has extended
its tenitories, and considerably augmented its strength;
and at Buenos Ayres, where cis il dissention had for
some time before prevailed, greater harmony and
better order appear to have been established. Equal
success has attended their efforts in the provinces on
the Pacific. It has long been manifest that it would
be impossible for Spain to reduce these Colonies by
force, and equally so, that no conditions short of their
independence would be satisfactory to them. It may,
therefore, be presumed, and it is earnestly hoped, that
the Government of Spain, guided by enlightened and
liberal Councils, will find it to comport with its inter.
rests to terminate this exhausting controversy on that
basis. To promote this result by friendly counsel
with the Government of Spain, will be the object of
the Government of the United States.

THE LOSS OE THE JULIANA.
Extract of a letter from Margate :—`4 The Juliana, C..210,Fs
Oots.virs, left Bengal the latter end uf July, and had a fair run to
the Downs, at which place she put her mail-bags ashore
day Week, the ;Usti and a short time after, Mrs. Ociseig, the
wife of the Captain, was landed. The ship brought up on Sat.
day in Margate Roads; but the weather being verytempestoone,
she drove, and lest one, if not two anchors. A lishlng.bogg
spoke them, and promised to send off an anchor and cable,
which was duly performed ; but, owing to the state of the tide,
this valuable assistance could not depart before the evening, and
their utmost exertions could not enable them to find the Juliana.
It appears from the accounts furnished by the surviving part of
the crew, that the ship struck upon the Kentish Knock, when;
it was thought expedient to cut away all three masts, which was
effected, and the vessel floated again. The sea running moun-
tains high, and the wind raging at the time, the boats were
Lowered, and all hopes of saving the ship abandoned. At this
moment, when all bands were preparing to leave her, a heavy.
swell tore away the boats from the ship's side; in this forlori
state a raft was determined upon, which, after much labour,
was completed, when, by another very heavy swell of the sea,
it was actually capsized. Despair, if ever it found a place igh
the breast of an English seaman, might at this moment era/rat-
ably be supposed to enter; but to hasten the catastrophe, the in-
satiate element quickly swallowed up nearly the whole of this
fated clew, poor Captain Ocn.nt amongst them ; and only three
or four have got on shore at :Margate, to communicate the dread..
ful tidings. Thy above will be found substantially correct."
We have been enabled to collect the following addition;)
ticulars of this lamentabk catastrophe :—The Juliana had arrived
lopposite 2. gate, when a sudden swell of the sea drove her
with irresistible violence from off land, and after being exposed
for several lunar* to the violence of the storm, she was cast upon
the Kentish Knock. This Was 00 the evening of the 24th inst.
The first thing she lost was her rudder. The distressing situa-
tion of the crew during the night passes description ; all hands
were employed at the pump, but the water yet increased upon
them, and every moment they expected the ship to go to pieces.
Captain Mize's, unwilling to quit her till the last remnant of
hope was exhausted, prevailed upon his men to continue their
exertions, and it was not till the afternoon of Christmas Day
that they resolved to abandon her, and endeavour to save their
lives. They then hoisted out the long-boat, into which all who
could were taken, and the rest gat toms a raft. After the an.
fortunate beings, thirty-seven in number, had thus left the ship,
the Captain imagined that he yet saw some hope of saving part
of her *ergo, by waiting till the morning ; end as there was as
immediate danger of the ship going down, actuated by at ardent
desire to promote the interests of his employers, and reluctant
to abandon his post, he unfortunately persuaded the crew agar
to return to a scene from which so few were ever to escape,—
They did so, and lashed the boat and raft to the ship. Wing
this Night their sufferings-were beyond description : the sea ran
mountains high, the water continued to gain upon them, and
they were obliged to remain upon the deck, exposed so all the
horrible inclemency of the wea:her. When every hope of saving
any particle of the effects was lest, and every moment added ,a
their danger, the Captain gave orders to seek safety in the beat;
and notwithstanding the intense darkness of the night, all were
instantly in motion.. Before, however, the unavoidable prcpara.
tions were completed, a most violent sea broke upon them, and
shivered the boat into pieces. Nothing could now exceed the
consternation and despair of the unfortunate victims; but it wss
of short continuance, for soon after the vessel itself was sous,
and immediately sunk. in the dreadful scene that ensued, six
of the men only were able to fiad the raft, and they by that
means avoided the immediate fate of their wretched companions.
Such, however, had been the privations they had endured, and
such the dreadful inclemency of the night, that four out of the

remaining six perished before the morning, and the other two,
when quite exhausted, were picked up by a fishing-boat, and
they only have escaped to tell the dreadful tale.'these men
have reached London. The only passengers on board were
Miss Ileriot, daughter to Lieutenant Ileriot, of the Bengal
Establishment, and her female attendant. This interening and
was coming to England for her education, and the Captain was
to have delivered her to the care of her grandfather, who resides
at Chehea.

Zdanoars, Dec. 30.—The boat which was so long in attend-
ance with an anchor and cable for the Juliana, has becn out to the
Kentish Knock this morning. and reports that, in about 7}
fathoms water, they discovered the masts of a sunken vessel.
which appeared to be teak wood ; the sea being high, they con-
tinued but a short time.

Bomar, JULY 4.—The Mulgrave Castle got out on Webs.
day, and the Lady Nugent on Thursday, without muck diffi-
culty, though the wind was dead to South, and in the evening
began to blow hard. Friday was a very boisterous day, ands
schooner (the Fly) was blown from her moorings and grounded
on the rocks under the walls of the Castle, and it is feared she
, will be totally lost. The same weather continued on Saturday
and Sunday, and with repeated hard squalls, and a good deal d
rain fell; the Royal George and the Nadiree at the Midas
ground. The weather was somewhat more moderate on Maw
day, when the Royal George, Farquharson, and Caroline, sailed
for China ; the Fazed Karim, for Madras ; and the Hon. Car
patsy's cruizer Antelope, for Mocha. The weather was modem's
during the day, but began to blow harder in the evening.

The 1 lonourable Captain Cam is appointed to command the
ROYAL Groecr yacht.
Tuesday, the Bet.terre, of 18 guns, Captain GEORGE Perateu.,
arrived at Portsmouth, in 20 days from the Bermudas, having
been three years and a half on the North American station. The
BELLETTE has been stationed chiefly on the ccasts of Novi Scotia
and New Brunswick, for the protection of the revenue and
fisheries against the encroachments of the Americans; and up-
wards of fourteen vessels have been condemned to Captin
recant., for violating the existing laws and treaties, as well as
a number of boats. The island of Bermuda had this year escaped
the fever, not a single case h .ving occurred, which is attributed
to the strictness of the quarantine laws. His Excellency Sir
Wnaaast I.usu.ev had dissolved his Parliament, and probably
would never have occasion to call another to obtain supplies, as
there are funds in the hands of the Governor and Council (ally
equal to meet the expenditure of the Government. The Nutmeat,
Captain &taxer, was the only vessel of war at Bermuda when
the Betz.rres sailed.

Tuesday arrived at Portsmouth the NaWCAITLE, 60, Vice-
Admiral Gairmit Cos.ruys, from the North American station,
in which cometand he was succeeded by Rear-Admiral Pants,
from the Leeward Islands, who arrived at Halifax in the FORTE
frigate, Sir 'Noma,' COCHRANC, on the 10th instant, from Bar-
badoes and Bermuda. All the West India Islands are now in-
cluded within one naval command—that of Rear-Admiral Sir

CHARLES llowiter,whu is stationed at Jamaica. The NEWCASTLE
bad a short run of only thirteen days from Halifax, it blowing a
gale all the passage through.
The Swift, Pace, at rived in the River from Harlingen, saw
three or four vessels driven on shore in the Vile on the 24th
instant ; also saw two fishing smacks strike on the Galloper
Sands oil the 27th, and immediately disappeared.
The paragraph announcing the appointment of Mr. DTMON 6to
a birth in the Lines frigate is contradicted. Air. Deswee has
left the service some years, and is at present at his father's
ticrivelsby Hall.
Several vessels which put to sea at the commencement of the
present month, from Livt :pool bound to America, &c. have
been compelled to put back, from the succession of heavy gales ,
from the westward, after having been a considerable distance on
their voyage.
The Beau smuggling cutter, of 163 tons, 10 guns, and 45
Men, from Flushing, laden with 1,7A70 bales of tobacco, tea, gin,
&c. was captured on the 25th instant by the boats of his Ma-
jesty's ships Seaustaaits and SHIM. off Robertshead, and carried
into Cork the next day. Niue of the crew escaped by taking
away one of the men of war's boats.

Letters from Bombay, dated July 21, sa) --- On
the Bth of July, a superb sword from the (iOVERNOR
GENERAL., was presented tothe Imatini tiscA r, by
Air. Ames, our Envoy to the Persian Court. The
chokra morbus had nearly subsided in that part of
Arabia. Ti e Immot says he has lost ten thousand of
his subjects by it. At Kishmee all was quiet, but
most •I the British Officers were sickly."

The following extract from the Austrian Observer,
contains the latest intelligence from Turkey :
“ CONSTANTINOPLE, NOVEMBER 27.
" If the news lately received from Albania can be
relied on, the events to which they refer will have
great influence on the fate of the Morea. Chourschid
Paella has assured the Porte that he will soon deliver
it from Ali Pacha, the most dangerous of its enemies.
He had taken by assault Litturizza, which was re-
garded as the last strong hold of the power of the
Pacha of lumina ; and he had sworn by his own head,
that that of the rebel should soon be stuck on the
gates of the Seraglio.
" The news from Persia is alarming to the Turks.
The Per sians have taken, on the Upper Euphrates,
the city of Musch, and approached Erzertn. On the
side of Bagdad, they had advanced to Kerkuk, but
they had been repulsed by the inhabitants, and had
thrown themselves into the villages of the neighbour-
hood. The Persian Prince, who commanded the
troops, had announced that be had received orders
from his father to retreat. In the meantime the
Pacha of Bagdad did not trust him, but formed his
defence with the greater activity.
" It is generally believed here that Bagdad is in a
state not to tear any attack. By news from Aleppo, I
it would appear, that the treachery of Kiaja, Chief
of the Turkish troops, his secret desire to supplant
the Paella; and to succeed to his honours, were the
causes of the late irruption of the Persians on the Ot-
toman tenitory. There have broken out several fires
in this capital within the last few weeks, but they
were soon got under by the activity of the Authorities.
" Circumstances have at last determined the Porte
'to introduce into Turkey the European formalities of
passports. It is known that up to the present mo-
went foreigners, as well as natives, enjoyed the most
unlimited freedom to travel in all directions. The
Ottoman Government has at last ordered that all
travellers must supply themselves with passports to
continue their routes.
" There have been, in the present and past month,
vielent storms in the Black Sea, by which several ves-
sels have been wrecked. Of this number was an
Austrian brig, wrecked on the coast of Itomelia, in
which, out of twelve men, seven perished."
