ad has been—since she was built, about two

years ago—running between Hull and Rotterdam. On
Saturday week, having taken on board a very large cargo

of cotton and Woollen goods, twist, manufactured iron, oil,

earthenware, cotton wool, &c., the Camerton, under the
command of Captain Cross, and manned by 20 men, in-
__

eluding the engineers, firemen, and stokers, and having
on board also about 12 passengers, left the Humber Dock,
and proceeded on her voyage. All went well until Sunday
week, when the ill-fated vessel encountered a terrific gale,
which sent her on shore, about 14 miles from Goree, at
the mouth of the Maese. The boats were got out, and all
hands, excepting Captain Cross, the second mate, and
Henry Jubb, a seaman, were saved.
WRECK OF THE EARL OE:CHARLEMONT.—The Earl of
Charlemont, Captain Gardner, a Liverpool emigrant ship,
carrying 435 passengers, for Sydney and Melbourne, went
on shore on Barwen Heads on Saturday, the ISth of June
last. The Earl of Charlemont sighted Cape Otway on the
preceding Friday, passed it about 12 o'clock and kept off
about two miles from the shore. About 5 o'clock the same
evening she was 20 miles from the lighthouse, a breeze
blowing off the shore. Lay to for the night, which was
quite clear, the moonlight lasting until 4 o'clock, the ves-
sel bearing in and out during that time. At 4 o'clock
there came on a dense fog, so thick that the nearest object
was not visible. The Captain was on the poop from 4
until half-past 5 o'clock, when the vessel struck. There
was no wind at the time, but the tide was setting in

sly, and the vessel bumped so violently that the fore-
mast went over the bows at once, carrying away the rig-
ging, and so close was the vessel to the shore that some of
the crew clambered down the chains along the fallen mast
and made to the shore by swimming a few yards. the
ship then fell on her starboard side and began to fill, and
the tide 'rising made a clean breach over her. Capt.
Gardner's statement is as follows At daylight ordered
the foremast to be cut away, to lighten the ship forward,
and get her further on the beach. Cut away the main-
topmast rigging and backstays, reserving the mainyard to
get the boats out. Gig launched, and swamped. Jolly-
boat launched to convey a line on shore—it capsized, but
the crew retained the line, and made it fast to the rocks.
The line, however, was of no use, having fouled among
some rocks in deep water. The long-boat was next
launched, and it capsized; then the life-boat, and
it capsized—both boats losing the line. The latter
boat was saved from damage, and hauled up on shore
by the crew. A passenger now volunteered to swim
on shore with a line from the jibboom, and succeeded in
landing. To the line we attached a strong rope, which he
and the men already there hauled on shore, and made fast
to the rocks. The officers and Men then launched the life-
boat from the shore and made the ship. This boat was
now slunc, by head and stern, like a cradle, to the strong
rope already made fast from the ship to the shore, and
landed the passengers ; the ladies and children first, then
the invalids and married men, and then the remainder,
the captain remaining on board, and attending at the gang-
way, until all the passengers had been safely landed; the
whole being effected, without accident, by about half-past
8 o'clock at night."

having been transacted at daily advancing nrices for all arti-

des. The weather during the same period has been stormy
and unsettled. The arrivals at Liverpool consist of liberal
supplies of Wheat and Flour from abroad, but of other pro-
duce thence or from other sources the imports are very light.
Our market this morning was well attended, and holders in
some instances commenced by asking extravagant prices,
which had the effect of checking sales ; ultimately a fair ex-
tent of business occurred, at the following advance:—Wheat,
6d to 8d per 70 lb.; Flour, 5s to Gs per sack, and 2s to 38 per
barrel; Oats, 2.d to 3d per 45 lb.; Oatmeal, 3s per load; and
Beans, 2s per qr.

PRESTON, OCT. I.—There was a tolerably fair supply of
English Wheat at our Corn Exchange this morning, a con.
siderable portion of which was new, but mostly in bad con-
dition. At the opening of the market the farmers were very
extravagant in their pretentions, but this checked sales, and
ultimately a clearance was effected at an average advance of
2s per windle. Foreign met a free sale at an improvement of
1041 per bushel. English Flour 4s to 5s per pack ; and Ame-
rican as much per barrel dearer on the week. No Beans or
Peas offering ; both inquired for, and would command high
figures. There is not a sample of new Oats forward, and old
for provender are sought after, at 6d per bushel over last cur-
rency. The market is cleared of Oatmeal, at an amendment
of 48 per load on new, and 3s on old. Indian Means, and
Bran Is per 240 lbs. higher.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, Ocr. I.—The weather this
week has continued to rule very favourable for the northern
harvest, with which considerable progress has now been
made; but there is still a great deal of Wheat out. At this
day's market there was a better supply of Wheat from the
farmers than for some time past, with several samples of
the new crop : quality and condition very various, but upon
the whole satisfactory. New being much wanted. it was soon
disposed of, as also the old, at an advance of 6s to 8s per qr.
on last Saturday's rates. Coastwise, and from abroad, the
arrivals during the week are only limited, and a further im-
provement in value of 6s to 7s per quarter from last Saturday
was established for both English and foreign samples. Grind-
ing Barley very scarce, and 34s per quarter paid for old Nor.
folk and Danish qualities. Oats, few offering, and holders
demand an advance of 2s per quarter for all kinds. The
market is quite bare of Pease and Beans. Flour held for 6s
to 7s per sack more money.
WAKEFIELD, SEPT. 30.—The arrivals of Wheat are fair,
but the quantity of new offering is unusually small ; trade is
less active; we quote fine fresh new and old at 6d to is per qr.
higher. . Oats are lad per stone, and Shelling 4s per load
higher. Beans are 2s per qr. higher. Malt is scarce, and
dearer.

Although we have an advance of 4s per qr. on Wheat, yet we
have a quiet trade. Prices given are 66s and 67s for 60 lb.

had, and only a few samples of Oats, which make 13d to 13id

CORK, OCT. I.—Our markets for Flour and Grain having
opened under great excitement this week, enabled sellers to
realize an advance of 3s to 5s per sack on Flour, and 2s per
barrel on Wheat, while the asking prices were considerably
more. The feeling towards the close of the week is modu•
lated, and prices nominal with a limited inquiry and few sales.
Indian Corn met less attention for speculation, and the con-
sumption being small, holders show more inclination to sell.
DUBLIN, SErr. 30.—Our market opened to-day with con-
siderable excitement, and an advance was generally demanded
on every description of grain. Wheat, native as well as
foreign, was Is, and Oats, Bere, and Barley, 6d dearer, but
towards the close the general feeling of the market was less
confident, and the advance was not sustained.
