THE HINDOSTAII.—IL 1110111 d teem that on the
chip's danger being apparent, the tailors, agreeable
to a cußom, more honoured in the breach than
the obfervance, began to pipe ell hands to plunder.
Not many hours after the wreck, tome of the Cap-
tain's fpoons were fold in the Borough ; and above
Sol. worth of his plate was (topped yellerday morn-
ing, upon a fufpicions perfon.
A Surveyor of Private Trade, in the fervice of
the Company, was one of the fortunate furvivors;
and it is rather a remarkable co-incidence, that
this perfon was alto on board the unfortunate
Hexer ADDINGTON, and then bad alto a narrow
efcape for his life.
Another fingular circumtiance is the death of
Mr. Ciaacx, on the very day on which his fon, a
Cadet, on board the Hitt:soiree, experienced a
watery grave.—Great hopes are entertained that
part of the bullion, copper, and lead may be fithed
up; but the cargo in general, of woollens, la. is
totally loft.
The Court of Direftors with an alacrity faked
to the fpur of the occafion, have taken up twolarge
(hips for China, to anfwer the encreafing and un-
exampled demands for Teas of every defeription ;
amounting. at prefent, to above twenty-four mil.
lions of lbs. per annum.
Such was the power and impetnofity of the ea&
erly wind on Tuefday, that the tide was driven ap
to Chelfea in a torrent, an hour and a half heft*
i:s egular hour, and fwelled to fuch a ig lurne/of
flono, that the Thames overflowed its banks, and
rofe fn high facing the church, as to cover the mad
and footpath, and extended at tome depth even to
the wall of the church-yard, nearly, if not quite,
fifty feet from the wharf.
About three o'clock on Wednefday morning, a
moll tremendous tire broke out in one of the large
cotton mills belonging to Mafia Strati, at Belper.
in Derbythire, which raged with incredible fury.
and in a few hours deftroyed it. with all the vs.
luable machinery, water wheel, Be. The cna
of this dreadful accident is not yet known. The
lofs will be immenfe, as no pan of the property Is
infured.
By the Grand Jury, at Clerkeuwell, yeftenky. a
true bill was found againft Mr. Pearce, for felony,
in (hooting the butcher. in High-greet, Mary-la•
bonne. Another true bill, for murder, was found
againft Tire. the pork-butcher, of White Crofs-

PARISIAN PASNIONS.—It is Rill the prevailing
falbion to throw over the forehead a thick tuft of
hair, dreffed out in ringlets, fo that neither tur-
bans, capotes, or tropter, can touch upon it. The
edges of the hasps: continue to be turned up and
to be plaited. Tarps, are generally made dada
or grey velvet. Orange, rote, and carnation ea
lours, arc put afide. -Hats made of ftriped rib-
bons, drawn elate and fewed together. are Dow in
great vogue, and the milliners make them of
griped fluffs. In comparifon of Taft year, very
few hats of black velvet are to be fan. The link
