on Sunday morning. The Ulcer arrived at Wasson's. Hotel,
Dover, ea Saturday afternoon, and after partaking of Joiner re-
freshment (having travelled wit!' 'great speed through France), pro.
ceeded on his journey to Loudon. The contents of these dispatches
were forwarded to the KING, at the Lodge, in Windsor Park, by
a Messenger, after the arrival of Mr. Secretary CANSINO at the
Foreign 011 ice.
Mr. STRATFORD CANNING, our Ambassador to the
Porte, will be escorted to the Dardanelles by the English squadron
stationed in the Archipelago. The Greeks flatter themselves that
he will interfere in their favour at Coestantiaople.
Sunday, Prince LEOPOLD dined with his sister, the
Deckle of Kerr, at her Royal Highness's residence in the King's
Palace, Kensington. Prince Limpets afterward* proceeded to his
mansion hoes, in Pall Mall.
Tim Loan CHANCELLOR.—This being the first S
it was expected that his Lordship would have resumed his sittings
at Lincoln's Inn Hall. The doors not being opened at the usual
hour, gave rise to a report that his Lordship bad suitired a relapse,
but which we are happy to say was unfounded, as his Lordship
sent word down, that he was so far recovered, as to leave ae doubt
of being able to preside on Thursday.
The VIcx•CIIANCELLOIR resumed his sittings this day,
and was occupied during the morning in disposing of the motions
which stood over from the last sittings.
Tuesday the 10th inst. a Meeting of the Ca holies of
Connaught was held at B illynasloe, when sundry reso-
lutions were passed with a view to the advancement of
the cause of emancipation. A public dinner took place
afterwinds, and we cannot say that either occasion was
marked by half the bad taste, or imprudence, whit's
have become almost inseparable from those ame üblies
where the trumpet-orators take the lead. At the dinner
abovementioned, Lord FFRENCH, the Chairman, had
the candour, not very common with certain of the Irish
Catholics, to attest the sea vices rendered to Ireland by
the existing Government, and to prefix a compliment to
the LORD LIEUTINANT's heal h.

Letters from Buenos Ayres, brought by the Emma,
state the arrival of Don' BERNARDINO RIVADAVIA, 00
the 21st of October, in the Prince Regent packer, from
England, to the great joy of all the inhabitants.
. Coirsseactst. Muitsaitssassetris.—Daring the late
swims in the commercial world, it has been matter of
observation and congratulation, how well persons en-
gaged in the cotton spinning and manufacturing trades
stood their ground. Within the last few days, how-
ever, we regret to state, that the number of failures in
those branches, chiefly of country houses, has been very
.considerable ; although; so far as we are aware, with
perhaps one exception, not very extensive in puint of
amount, or amongst people whose insolvency is cal-
culated to cause any great surprise. When the rely
low prices of, and depressed state of the demand lor
cotton goods and yarns, as well as the general reduction
of credit, are considered, it will excite no surprise that
at such a time " the weakest go to the wall."
When the ARIADNI left the Cape, the surveying
squadron was about to proceed to the West Cast of
Africa. The purser of the LIVEN, and a Lieutenant,
died at the Cape; and 32 Officers have fallen violins

whcm are the two Lieutenants of the Esetect,e.
A fatal accident occurred on Sunday. at Lea-bridge,
near Upper Clapton. The ice on the river Lea was
crowded with skaiters, and several females wet e amongst
them, when seven Gentlemen venturing too near. a
barge on the river, the ice gave way, and they instantly
plunged into the water. Drags, topes, and boat hooks
were speedily procured, and in about ten minutes six
were rescued from the water, but, unfortunattly, the
seventh, the son of Mr. DICKINSON, a Gentleman in the
East India Houae, was carried by the custent under the
Irarge,• and alter an hour's search tlic body uulJ nit
