EFFECTS OF THE LATE STORM.

ST. PETERSBURGH, DECEMBER 9.—The Eng.
lith (hip the Princefs of Wales, Captain Yovno,
which, on account of the contrary wind, had
been obliged to lie at anchor two days off Tol-
buchin's Light.houfe, and was furrounded by
drift ice, loft its anchor, was driven by the ice,
and is ftranded on the fouth coati of the Gulph
of Finland, so werßs from Cronftadt. To let it
afloat, a third part of the valuable cargo was fafe•
ly lodged in boats, and brought dry on fhore :
but in the night of the al December it had the
misfortune to be pierced through by the drift ice.
It liesnow aground in is feet water, three werfts
from the emit, and two thirds of the cargo are
under water. The fugal., coffee, and indigo are
fpoiled ; the woollen and cotton goods may per-
haps have fuffered lets. It is hoped, that when
the ice is (after, the (hip, which is a three malt
veffel, of 300 tons, may be alfo brought into the
harbour : at prefent it is impable, without the
utmoft hazard, to pats to it over the Wore and
broken ice floats. The cargo is eftimated at 50,0001.
and the (hip at 4.0001.

anchor would not hold, and the drove fo far to
the leeward, that it was impoilible to clear the
Cagle Point, and was forced on Chore dole by

mall of Kent, and molt other places, of plunder-
ing the wrecks of veffels, having been fo longfane-
timed by cullom, and the Magiftrates on the (pot
conceiving themfelves utututhorifed to reftrain or
pun& Nth. Underwriters of the property on board
the above vdel, took the opinion of Counfel, and
being advifed that this offence amounted to felony,
applied to Sir RICHARD Foao, who granted a war-
rant fer (earthing thepronifes fufpedled of contain-
ing property taken from the wreck, and difpatched
&vett, and feveral other Officers, to Whitflable,
who found a r calks of pot alb, and reverel etas
of (agar, which appeared to have come from

concealed. The tradefinan was brought up a pri-
loner to town by the Officers, and has undergone
feveral private examinations at Bow.fireet, where

employed in weighing the wreck ; and on the

employed in taking calks out of that ve&l, and
conveying them to the warehoufe belonging to
the pffosser. Several other witneffes from Whit.
Sable were examined. The prifoner *Hedged that
the goods were only lodged in the prattifes, to
Pave the heavy charges which would be made at
the Cullom-Houk. Sir It:comae FORD died it
proper, under all the circumftances, to hold him
to bail, to take his trial for the fame, at the cata-
