DR. COX'S DESCRIPTION OF THE STRANDING
OF THE GREAT BRITAIN.

On Sunday morning, an unusually large congregation
assembled at the Presbyterian Church, in Rodney-street,
it having been announced that Dr. Cox, of New York,
would preach. As some of our readers are probably
aware, the reverend gentleman was one of the foreigners
engaged in the formation of " The Evangelical Alliance ;"
and it will be remembered that a valedictory breakfast
was given to the doctor and other American ministers
by the Liverpool admirers of "The Alliance," on the
21st ultimo, at the Music-hall, Bold-street, prior to the
sailing of the Great Britain, in which it was the intention
of the strangers to return home. They accordingly em-
barked, but the accident to their noble vessel brought
them again to Liverpool; and it was the expectation that
the learned doctor would make some allusion to the
scene in Dundrum Bay, together with his high reputation
as an eloquent preacher, that filled the above-mentioned
place of worship with a crowd of strange listeners, as
well as a full attendance of the ordinary worshippers.
The reverend doctor preached from the Bth chapter
of Romans, verses 18 to 25, and his discourse was
divided into several beads, one of which was as to what
was meant by the " vanity" to which the creature is said
in the text to be subjected—" For the creature was made
subject to VANITY, not willingly, but by reason of km
who hath subjected the same in hope." In treating of
this he said—" A part of this vanity is made up of disap-
pointments. How grand a chapter of human history does
the word indicate ! What hopes destroyed in a moment ;
what plans thwarted ; what expectations frustrated ; yea,
even, what prayers unheard ! Yet we ought to be very
cautious in speaking thus of prayer. Prayer is not
dictation ; it is request with submission. The best
answer to prayer is often not that which the suppliant
may expect or would choose. When we pray we commit
our interests to the care of our Heavenly Father; and
must say and feel, " Not as I will, but as Thou wilt."
1 am reminded forcibly of this when 1 remember that I
little thought two weeks ago of preaching this day in
Liverpool. I expected that I should instead he preaching
to my own beloved people in America. With what high
hopes did the Great Britain, with 300 souls on board,
leave the docks of Liverpool ! Suppose of the thousands
who thronged the shores to witness her departure, it had
been asked, " Where is she going?" who among them
would have replied ought but that she was going to Ame-
rica ; and yet in nine and a half hours afterwards she was
stranded in the storm, in the dark night, amid raininga,
and lightnings and thunders, and the heaving of the sea,
and the panic-stricken terrors of the hundreds on board.
For the suddenness of the shock, the necessary ignorance
of all as to our real position, made every one fear the
worst, from the repeated concussions to which we were
subjected by the fury of the elements. While going with
the wind and the storm we knew not its fury, but when
we were aground we felt the power of its might. It is not
my province to inquire into the providence of man, or to
investigate the absence of it ; let us look at the providence
of God. The expectations of thousands in America and
in' Europe were thwarted in a moment, although every
event, every accessory, seemed to assure us of a happy and
rapid transit across the broad Atlantic. I will sketch one
or two of the many providences for which oar warmest
gratitude is due to him who disposeth all things ;
and I do it with the desire that you will pray for us; that
you will pray to the God of all mercies to assuage the
agonies felt by the friends of the voyagers, to-day and to-
morrow, when the continued absence of the Great Britain
will remind them of the fate of the unhappy President,
and no telegraphic communication through air or ocean
can tell them that the giant of the waters is not gorged in
the deep. My consolation in these events is a humble
confidence in the wisdom of the sublime counsels of Him
who overrules all things, and who comforted the heart of
the child-bereaved Jacob, when he exclaimed, " All these
things are against me." The first thing I will mention is,
that no life was lost. What is property to life ? Oh, how
valuable is the life of man ! not as an animal, but as the
whole creature—body and soul. While in this world you
are within the province of hope, if you are not prepared
to die, by the grace of God you may be soon. Here were
300 human lives in imminent peril. Of these half a hun-
dred were little children from Vienna and some from Eng-
land, whose education had been ' on the light fantastic
toe,' and whose occupation tendeth to vanity. I pitied
them much, but I am now very glad to think that they
are not coming to my country, where there is vanity
enough without them. 1 say this out of no unkindness to
wards these poor children, who perhaps have no fathers
or mothers to teach them, having not been long in this
world to acquire those principles by which they might safely
go through and triumphantly go out of it. No life was lost !
There were even more saved than were with Paul when he
was shipwrecked on the island of Melita. The next provi-
dence was the position which we were in, a dangerous
bay, in which no vessel had hitherto escaped destruction. I
am not pretending to give a graphic description ; nor can 1
lay claim to the accuracy of a surveyor, I shall merely
state what I believe. When I looked out of the gigantic
vessel the following morning, there was on either side a
ledge of sunken rocks, which must have been fatal to the
ship had she gone in at a different angle of only five de-
grees either way. The sand too of that little chasm was
of a hard tenacious nature, and the force with which the
vessel went ashore sent it so deeply into it, as to form a
safe support when the waters of the tide receded. Had 1
the sands been of a looser kind, or had the shore been
mud, the receding of the tide would have let her fall over
on her beam ends, and who can then tell what would have
been the result. Who navigated the ship into that cove
of safety ? in the waves of the storm—with the darkness
of night stretched over us—when the waters were high.
The hand of God, our Heavenly Father ! Who else could
have guided the ship through those rocks, which would
have riddled her iron model; let in the inundation; and
she would have been a great sepulchre, and we the
corpses ! In the morning, when the approaching chariot
of the sun brightened the east, and I looked over the
sides of the vessel, the water around us was not three
feet in depth. The poor people of th 3 coast were assem-
bling, and when I and the rest of the passengers were let
down many feet to be borne ashore on the shoulders of
men, I looked back at the ill-fated ship, and thought that
I bad never before seen so fitting a thing wherewith to
compare the stranding of the ark upon Mount Ararat.
I suppose there were a hundred and fifty of the passen-
gers in the cabin at half past nine o'clock, when
the ship grounded ; and they behaved extremely
well- I heard no such thing as one profane or rash
expression in that moment of terror. We had no
counsellor, no plan, no leader. The anxiety and anguish
of females, too much frightened to shriek, made the whole
scene one of indescribable confusion, such as I can never
forget. I proposed to some who stood near me to go to
prayer ; but they requested me not, as it would tend to
increase the consternation by making the danger appear
more imminent than perhaps it really might be. What,
said I, is prayer to God no medicine for the mind dis-
tressed ? is not God a very present help in time of trouble?
is not man's extremity God's opportunity ? I accordingly
arose, and, after a few words, all walking and talking
ceased, and we joined in prayer, with a feeling that we
might in a moment go down to the bottom, and on the
pinions of hope and faith go up to judgment. We also
felt that we were sinners, and that there could be no hope
save in Jesus Christ, our Saviour. There was no such
monster as an infidel then to show himself ! Many there
were, who now feel that their rescue was a solemn warning
to them ; as indeed it is to you, and to all. lam happy
to say that tall seemed delighted with the opportunity of
prayer ; and when a second supplication was offered by
the Rev. Mr. Gill, it seemed indeed like ointment poured
forth. It made us all feel one family ; there was no
formality, no state, no affectation; all gave way before a
sense of mutual danger and mutual trust in God. I hope
and believe God's providence and presence then, may be
blessed to the salvation of a thousand souls; for sup-
posing one hundred, or a less number, of careless sinners,
to be arrested in their course, and induced to seek after
the things of God, and of his Christ, their influence and
example will produce like results, and my hopes may
more than be fulfilled. I trust it made us all resolve, by
the grace of God, to be better Christians, and walk in His
paths more regularly„raore circumspectly."
The learned doctor then proceeded with his discourse ;
and in the prayer, near the conclusion of the service,
again alluded to his recent deliverance from shipwreck,
in a most eloquent and touching manner.

THE SPANISH MARRIAGES.—The Paris journals are
already expressing triumph, and anticipating the best re-
sults to France from these two unions. The Paris cor-
respondent of the Times, in allusion to this subject, says,
" These journals commence well. You will speedily
hear of the overthrow of the Pyrenees by this immense
acquisition gained for France: you will see the Princess,
destined, in certain circumstances, to rule over Spain,
arrive in Paris, and become French ; you will hear of her
adopting the views as she will adopt the language of the
French Court, that her children, brought up at the
Chateau of the Tuileries with those of her illustrious
brothers in-law, will become, like them, truly and bond
fide French princes. You will hear, probably, before
waiting long, of the advantages secured to French com-
merce in Spain over that of all foreign countries. You
will hear of the security given to the African possessions
of France by not the cession, perhaps, but the application
of Majorca and Minorca, the latter in particular, to the
uses and the services of France ; and you will hear how
far the project to make the Mediterranean a French
lake will have been advanced by this glorious idea, so
happily realised."
In Belgium and the north of France,'the potato crop is
reported to be not only good, but abundant : the unsound
crop of last year being succeeded by one perfectly healthy.

COLLTHIHN ON THE RIVER.—A collision took place
near the Cheshire shore, on Saturday night, between
two of the Woodside boats, but owing to the clearness of
the weather, both vessels being able to reverse their
engines, the consequences were exceedingly trivial. The
Wirral left this side at half-past nine, and the Nun the
opposite side at the same time; the former, steaming to
stem the tide, which was running up rapidly towards the
Rock, came in collision with the other boat, which was
running down in land to make a reach to the Pier. Some
of the passengers were much alarmed, and the boat was
about a quarter of an hour behind her time. No blame
is, we learn, attached to either captain.

Mr. Dietrichsen, surviving partner of the firm of Han-
nay and Dietrichsen, committed suicide on Wednesday,
by cutting his throat.
ST. MICHAEL'S MOUNT.—It is rumoured that our
most gracious Sovereign has offered £55,000 for St. Mi-
chael's Mount, Devonshire, as a marine residence, but
that the sum asked is £75,000.
THE NAVAL STATION AT COVE.—A letter has been
received by the Earl of Bandon from Lord John Russell,
intimating that the Lords of the Admiralty approved of
the establishment of a naval station at Cove for the re-
pairs of steamers, ships of war, &c., that an engineer
would be sent over at once to, lay out the necessary works,
and labourers then employed in the excavations, &c.
A CONSCIENTIOUS DEBTOR.—The Rev. Wm. Robert-

son, of Monzievaird, has received £1 sterling from a party
in London, as tenfold payment of a debt incurred in that
parish about forty years ago. He has duly paid the sum
to Mr. Duncan M'Grigor, at the house of Burn, the son
of the person to whom the debt was due ; and Mr. D.
M'Grigor has returned the amount to be distributed
among the poor of the parish.—Perthshire Courier.
New NAVIGATION.—Much interest was excited yes-
terday by the noble though not entirely new exhibition
of part of a sea-going vessel drawn by horses to the water
side. An iron ship, of 300 tons, being in course of con-
struction by the Messrs. Pim, the bows and foremost por-
tion of the hull were removed from the foundry in Eng-
lish-street, in a cradle drawn by sixteen horses, and aided
by nearly 200 men to their yard on the Humber-bank,
near Wellington-street, where the after part will be re-
moved in about a fortnight to complete the vessel, which
is intended for the Liverpool and Dublin trade.—Hull
Paper.
APPA7ILING DISTRESS.—WO (Cork Ezaminer) pray
attention to the statement of the Rev. Mr. Daly, con-
tained in this day's paper, with reference to the destitu-
tion of the parish of Kilworth, of which he is the pastor.
Many of the poor inhabitants, he declared, at the Fermoy
presentment sessions, had no other means of subsistence
but cabbage leaves, the effects of which were visible in
their altered frames and appearance. The Earl of Mount-
cashel, without repeating the shocking details, testified
to the truth of every word of the clergyman's recital.
It is strange that a state of circumstances so undoubtedly
real and sickening to contemplate should occur in a
Christian land.

rHE HEROES OF THE SUTLEJ.—On Sunday upwards
of 150 invalids of the 3rd Light Dragoons, 16th Lancers,
and 9th, 10th, 29th, 31st, 50th, 53rd, 62nd, and 80th
Regiments of Foot, from India, arrived at Chatham,
having disembarked at Gravesend from the Herefordshire,
all of whom were engaged in the four battles on the banks
of the Sutlej It was painful to witness the mutilation
which some of these brave men suffered in the late en-
counters with the Sikhs—most of them having lost an arm
or a leg, and one sergeant both legs and arms. They left
Ferozepore the 14th March last, and arrived at Bombay
the 27th April, having been conveyed in steam-boats from
the mouth of the Indus, and they embarked on board
the above ship on the 16th of May, from Bombay. The
ship put in at St. Helena for water and stores, and they
also put in at Fayal. Lieut. M. Deane Freeman, of the
80th, who was shot through the thigh, died on the
passage.

MONEY MARKET—SATURDAY NIGHT.—The news
by the overland mail has produced no effect upon the
Consol market, notwithstanding its political ceo-
plexion seems to be regarded as far from satisfactory-
In the general appearance of prices at the Stock-Exchange
there was no particular alteration, except that heaviness
continues the leading character of business. The deal-
ings in all the departments were of the most limited kind,
the early closing of the markets inducing many of the
jobbers to withdraw themselves entirely on a Saturday.
Consols, for money and the account, left cff this afternoon
at 951 to 2-; Long Annuities (expiring sth of January,
1860) 10 1-16; India Stock, 260 ; and Exchequer-bills,
15s. to lls. prem. The bargains in the fotein mar-

ket are scarcely worth enumeration. They include
Buenos Ayres, at 43; Mexican, for the account, at 25 ;
Portuguese Four per Cents., for the account, at 42;
Spanish Five per Cents., 261 ; and Dutch Four per
Cents., Certificates, at 921. During the last week, and
particularly within the last two days, the demand for
money on commercial paper has been increasing. The
current rate for discounting bills of the first class may be
set down at 3 to 31 per cent.

REFUSING CHRISTIAN BURIAL. The town was
thrown into great excitement on Tuesday, in consequence
of the Rev. S. Carr, vicar of St. Peter's, having refused
Christian burial of a man named Foster, an umbrella-
maker, who resided on North-hill, in the above parish.
Mr. Carr, being applied to to perform the funeral rites,
it appears, refused, on the ground that deceased had lived
a dissolute life, therefore he could not conscientiously
comply with the request of the family in that respect, but
allowed the grave of Foster's late wife to be opened, that
his remains might be deposited therein, and the bell was
tolled as the funeral procession approached the church-
yard. On the corpse arriving at the grave, a messenger
was brought to Mr. Carr, to request him to officiate per-,
sonally, but he was inexorable, and still persisted in his
refusal, as regarded himself, or any other clergyman to
officiate for him. The consequence was, that the corpse
was taken back, and an application was made to Mr.
Herrick, minister lof the Independent chapel, East
Stockwell-street, for permission to have the corpse in-
terred in the burial-ground adjoining the meeting-house,
which was instantly complied with by Mr. Herrick, who
also volunteered to perform the funeral rites. A grave
was immediately sunk, and at nine o'clock the same eve-
ning the corpse was conveyed thither, attended by at least
a thousand persons, who observed the most profound de-
corum.—Chelmsford Chronicle.

EXCHANGE DISORDERLY.—One of the porters who fre
quent the purlieus of the Exchange flags, waiting for
employment, and whose name is Wm. Wilson, was
charged before the stipendiary magistrate, yesterday, with
having abused and menaced the officer placed there by the
proprietors. without any apparent reason. The case was
clearly proved, and in ordering the prisoner to find bail,
Mr. Rushton stated that it was only by permission that
these men congregated within the area. The Exchange
was private property, and it was not to be tolerated
that persons who were allowed to stand there, waiting for
employment, should annoy the officer on duty. In London
the parties were not allowed to stand within the Exchange
at all. In default of hail the defendant was committed.
INQUESTS YESTERDAY.—Three inquests were held
yesterday before the borough coroner. The first was
upon an infant, three months old, the daughter of Patrick

lane. Death was caused by the child being overlain on
Thursday night.—The second case was that of a married
woman, fifty years of age, named Mary Angle. She re-
sided in Redcross-street, and, on Friday last, she was
seen intoxicated, but when she went to bed in the even-

TRILOQUIST, and INIPROVISATORE,
MR. JACOBS,
FROM THE STRAND THEATRE, LONDON,
Who respectfully begs to announce that he has been induced,
from the great success lie experienced on his last visit, again to
engage the Theatre Royal for a limited number of nights, pre-
vious to his departure for America.
The astounding feats he has now to introduce will entirely
eclipse all other Professors of the Cabalistic Art. His mysteries
have gained for him the name of the modern Faustus. The
Experiments performed by La Compt, Lodowergski, Herr Do-
bler, and Monsieur Phillipe, are to him perfectly easy, while the
'mere every-day tricks of the East, West, North, and South
Wizards are thrown completely into the shade. Formerly an
audience could be amused with changing an Egg into a Canary
Bird. Mr. Jacobs, with perfect ease, transforms Globes of
Water and Gold Fish into live Ducks and Geese; a single Egg
into a Flock of Pigeons ; a box of common Horse Beans into
Ilot Coffee, Sugar, and Milk enough to supply the whole au-
dience; a Lady's Ring into a beautiful Orange Tree ; a small
Automaton Enchantress, supplies from a Magic Tavern the
audience with Whiskey, Gin, Rum, Brandy, Sherry, and Port ;
indeed, to unumerate the many wonders accomplished by the
Wizard-of-Wizards, would be superfluous in an advertisement.
The Stage will be fitted up in a style of great splendour, form-
ing a complete Temple of Enchantment.
Mr. JACOBS' Ventriloquism will be found highly amusing.
lie imitates twelve voices in as distinct a manner as though
twelve persons were actually in earnest conversation. The time
of the audience is not idly occupied with Mimicry, but the
voices follow each other with great rapidity from various parts
ascending, descending, or receding with astonishing effect.
Mr. JAcous will also extemporize a Song upon various sub-
jects given him by the audience,after the manner of the Italian
improvisatori. The whole Entertainment, from its varied
nature, will be found a treat not often to be met with.
Mr. JACOBS, in addition to his own Performances, has en-
gaged the celebrated Mr. BATSMAN, the first AMERICAN
DELINEATOR, COMIC SINGER. and MUSICAL PERFORMER Of
the day. He will make his first appearance in this country
TO-MORROW (Wednesday), the 7th instant, and re-appear
every Evening during the Week.
