80 tuns, of which the greater part has been Spanish. A further
import of Seal Oil (mostly coloured) having been received by two

yesterday ; they consist of about 200 chests Bengal, 66 Oude, 117
Bombay Fig, 35 Madras, 14 Manilla. and 79 serons Carracca. In
co sequence, however, of the firmness' of the Importers, and the
disinclination evinced on the part of the Trade to buy, excepting
at very low rates, scarcely any thing was done but in Caracca,
which all sold at an average of about 3s std for Cortes ; of Bengal,
26 chests sold at 45 7tl to 4s I Id, and one lot 5s 8d; 4 chests Oude

RUSSIA

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 22.—1 t is positively affirmed that
their Imperial Majesties the Grand Duchess Olga, the Grand
Duke Alexander and his bride, and the Princess Mary of
Hesse, will arrive at Zurskejeselo, on the 9th of September,
where they will spend some weeks. On the 28th of Sep-
tember, the august bride, accompanied by the imperial family,
will make her solemn entry into the capital. Great prepara-
tions are making here for the ceremony. The marriage will
not take place till July next year.
Among the possessions hitherto held by onr Government,
on the north-west coast of America, was the colony of Ross,
above California, in the 38th degree of north latitude. We
now abandon it, after thirty years possession. The popula-
tion, consisting of Russians, Creoles, Aleutians, and Indians,
255 persons, all professing the Christian religion, have re-
ceived orders to quit the colony and to remove to Lilka.

HANOVER.
HANOVER., Ave. 21.—Within a short time the life of our
beloved Sovereign has been twice in great danger, which
Heaven happily saved. Once was at the King's late hunting
party at the Giihrae. There, as we are told, the fowling-
piece that was standing near the King went off in consequence
of the jolting of the carriage, and the ball passed but a few
inches of the King's head. The second time was when the
Kin- was riding out a large dog attacked the King's horse,
which was frightened, and-began to plunge and rear up. The
King's good horsemanship and presence of mind, and the
aid-de-camp hastening to his assistance prevented a fatal
accident. When such events fill the loyal Hanoverians with
apprehensions for their revereil King, on the other hand we
may hope that the skilful hand of Jiiger, who is positively
expeted here tomorrow, will complete the work of Grafe,
and restore the sight of the Cron Prince.

WEST INDIES

The Swift packet has brought the usual files of papers from
the West India islands. The dates arc—from Jamaica to the
29th July, from Demerara to the 18th July, from Barbadoes
to the 16th July, from Trinidad to the 17th July, and from
Antigua to the 21st July, all inclusive.

At Jamaica, it appears, that notwithstanding the lateness
of the season, and the previous long drought, the coffee pro-
perties in the Manchester district had not suffered much. The
berries were ripening fast. The weather generally continued
dry and dusty. The negroes being out of provisions, would,
it was said, be obliged to work for hire. Bills were being
drawn on London by the Colonial bank at 2 per cent. premi-
um for 30. A shock of an earthquake was felt in Spanish-
town on the morning of the 22d. The Legislative Assembly
had been further prorogued to the Ist Septamber.
In consequence of several attempts at incendiarism in the
island of Barbadoes, the governor had in one particnlar in-
stance offered a reward of £2OO, which it was thought would
lead to the detection of the parties concerned. The pro-
spects of the crops had increased through the timely setting
in of the rainy season. The young canes were already par-
tially refreshened, and the Indian corn and yams looked pro-
mising. _ _

The-Trinidad Assembly was in deliberation, but the mea-
sures before it were of no public importance.
In Antigua a proclamation for the discovery of incendiaries
had also been made. The governor was to leave the island
on the 23d for England, but his absence would only be of
temporary duration. Public tanks were in course of con-
struction to alleviate distress caused by drought, and they
were already in a forward state.

ECCLESIASTICAL AND UNIVERSITY

INTELLIGENCE

(From the Oxford Herald.)

The Rev. Dr. 'Wynter, Pre-sident of St:John's College,
will be nominated to succeed Dr. Gilbert in the office of
Vice-Chancellor of this University, at the commencement of
the ensuing month.

THE SEE OF CHICHESTER.—This Bishoprick, which has
become vacant by the lamented death of Dr. Otter, it is ex.
pected will be filled by an Oxford man. Amongst those
whose names we have heard mentioned as most likely to
succeed, is that of Dr. Shuttleworth, Warden of New Col-
lege. The ministerial papers have been advancing the claims
of Dr. Hampden, Regius Professor of Divinity, and Dr.
Arnold, Head Master of Rugby School, on the ground that
they are not likely to follow the example of the Rev. Pre-
lates of Ripon and Salisbury (Drs. Longley and Denison,)
who refused to join the ministers in their schemes of church
spoliation. The name of the Rev. Dr. Hindes has also been
put forward, from his connexion with the premier.
The Rev. John Bartholomew, M.A., of Corpus Christi
College, is elected a Canon of the Cathedral of Exeter, in
the room of the Rev. Dr. Fisher, deceased.

COLONIAL INTELLIGENCE,

NEW SOUTH—WALES.
We have received a file of Sydney papers to the 30th of
April, inclusive. They do not add much to the intelligence
previously received. The following are the only extracts of
importance:—
ANOTHER BOLTER.—Nathaniel Davies, better known as
one connected with the Cato-street conspirators, who cut off
the heads of the offenders, and held them up to the gaze of
the multitude some years ago, exclaiming, " Behold the head
of a traitor I" but who lately has been employed in collect-
ing monies for the Gas Light Company, has bolted from the
Colony, it is supposed, with about £4OO. of the company,.
cash. The committee, it is rumoured, has taken steps to
capture the runaway, in order, if possible, to bring him to
lustice, and thereby make an example of him, to deter others

from following in his, ima his predeeesors' steps. This is
another instance in proof for the consideration of the legisla-
ture, of the immediate necessity for the enactment of a regu-
lation to compel all parties intending to leave the colony to
publish such intention, with full name, and previous occupa-
tion, some short time, as in its wisdom may be thought ne-
cessary, previous to departure. As it now is, any free person
may leave the colony in debt, when he thinks proper, with
impunity; and as he pockets his ill-gotten gains, laughs at
the credulity of his creditors. And so it will of course con-
tinue to be until the government issue orders, as we think it
ought to do, declaring it illegal for any person to embark as
a passenger on board any vessel, without undergoing this
necessary ordeal ; and also, making it fineable for any mas-
ter of a vessel to receive any passenger on board his ship
without their producing the necessary testimonials as before
stated. This will prevent the honest tradesman from in-
evitable ruin, which certainly will eventually be the case if
some salutary alteration be not speedily made.
NEW C,ituttenEs.—A meeting was held on Monday last,
in the vestry of St. Phillip's church, of individuals interested
in the erection of an additional church or chapel of ease
to St. Phillip's parish, which has long been required for the
daily increasing inhabitants in and about that neighbour-
hood.

JOHN THOMAS WILSON.—This notorious man was seen
in company with the captain of the Nereus, a short time
back, doing it up " brown," on the island of Guam. It is
a pity a vessel is not sent to secure him, no doubt he could
soon be traced among the Indian islands. • He would be
a fine subject to make an example of to bolters.
THE MARKETS.—TUESDAY, APRIL 22.—Flour has taken
a fall of £5 per ton since our last publication. The prices
now asked at all the mills are, for first quality, 50s. per
1001bs. ; second quality, 40s. per 100113 s. ; Third quality, 30s.

PORTU GAL

Accounts from Lisbon to the 31st ult. have been received.
It appeared that a 'serious disturbance had broken out at
Castello Branco, the 6th regiment of infantry in garrison in
that place having revolted, and proclaimed the Constitution
of lE&.. Measures were immediately taken by government
for the suppression of the revolt by the despatch of such
troops to the spot as could be depended upon ; but the gene-
ral aspect of affairs in the interior of Portugal was of a very
menacing character. The law for the suspension of the
habeas corpus, amended in the senate, has been passed, and
was published in the official gazette. The treaty of com-
merce between Portugal and the United States has at length
been officially concluded, but has yet to be laid before the
Cortes.
