Loss or ♦ Frextro-roAr.—We regret to state that
a fishing-buat. the Julia. belonging to a dwp.sea Fishing Company
of liJinburgh, and manned by six men belonging to Coctensie, was
lost in the tremendous gale of Thursday lam, and the whole crew
drowned, by which disaster five widows end 5.4 children, almost
aU under age. have been left In a state of poverty and helplessness.
It appears that the Julia, along with a number or other ho its, bad
taken shelter for some time on Thursday under the Le of the isle
of May, and that while the others, front a 'cameo( danger, returned
to their various ports in the Fritb. the crew of the Julia, with
daring temerity, proceeded to sea. l'he disaster which afterwards
betel them was learnt on Friday morning, by the boat coming on
shore a wreck at Thornton Loch, a Intl, way east of Dunbar.—
The crew consisted of

Jahn Brown—ltft a wide* and four children.
Jahn Pidgeon—widow and two children.
Juan Coul—widow and @even children.
James Cuul—widow and five children.
Morton Durham—widow and via children.
William SM./alt. aged 17, unmarried.

Upon the melancholy event becoming known. Mr. Cadell, of
Cockenzie. humanely visited the destitute famihes. and ailnumsteted
to their immediate yams; cud we noderstand be has since set on
foot a subscription on their behalf. None of the bodies of the
bshermen bad been found yesterday. The swell of the sea. for 46
hours before the jale came en. was truly treniendom; so much so
that seine of them eapected to have their masts shaken out of
their vessels. We mach fear that we may have (artiste deplorable
effects to relate of the storm.

About two hundred emigrants for the Cangdas sailed from Leltll

Foal's/Tao Taxies —From an expression used by the boar of
Wellington, in his speech on the second reading of the Ca. lodic
Relief Bill, we are inclined to hope that the resturatiou of all these
titles will take place at no distant period. We arodc to a seta' bee
id which his Grace said, that the Stu .n Emily having erased to
eli*t the disabilities affecting its adbrrents should ce.ise also. In
.Scutland such a boon would greatly increase the Duke's popularity.
