PRICES OF PRODUCE

We are favored with the following
extract of a letter, received in town via
England. N. T. Mer. .AdD.
"Gi6raltar, .AprH 5.-A great deal has
been done in hard wheat at the prices
we mentioned in our last, but'the arti-
Gle not being yet admitted at Cadiz, nor
any Of the other ports Of Spain, except
Algesiras, and as it is feared that Co
vernment may finally be disposed not
to allow the importation Of foreign
growths at all, our buyers have become
in consequence less eager, and prices
are therefore likely to recede. At any
rate, whatever may be determined in
regard to wheat, it is thought, that to
Flour the ports will continue shut
From this cause, there is now hardly
any demand for the article which is
scarcely any thing better than nominal

MR.. CLAY AT HOME.

II gives us great satisfaction TO put

the honorable reception which Mr.
Clay experienced on his arrival at Lex
ington Never was juster homage
paid TO talent and frmness, than on
this occasion, and never did any COM
bination of circumstances render tri
butte more grateful to him to whom it
was offered, than this must have been
to MIR. Clay. His triumph over his en-
emies is indeed signally pure and per
feet.
From the Kentucky { Lexington } Reporter
Mr.. CLAY reached home on Thurs
day last, and was '0sfcomed by his con-
stituents with more than usual cordial
lily. Early in the forenoon ofthat day,
a number of the Citizens of the Town
rode several miles, to Bryan's Station
to meet him, and in the suburbs he
was met by Capt. PIXIES Company OF
Artillery Cadets; the whole escort pro-
ceeded with him through town to his
residence. On Wednesday a Public

like honor will successfully be tender.

waited to greet him, and to tender
their assurances of undiminished conf

MELANCHOLY DISASTER BY THE
LATE STORM

Norfolk, June give stated in our
last, that two of the Hampton Pilot
Boats were exposed to the fury of the
destructive storm of Saturday last, and
that it was apprehended that one OF
them had been lost, with all on board,
except small boy, who miraculously
escaoed a watery grave. We have
since learned the following painful par
ticulars confirming that apprehension:
The Pilot Boat TEAZER, Of Hamp-
ton, was capsized during the gale Of
Saturday, about noon, near the Wash
Woods, and Hill;am Bigley, John House,
Shadrach House, Charles Rudd, John
Whitfield and Dick, "a coloured man be-
longing to Mr.. John Herbert, OF Hamp-
ton, buried in the ocean.
William Anderson, the boy who was
providentially saved, states that they
took the gale off Hog Island, and scud-
ded before the wind until they were
capsized by breakers, when all hands
were swept off the deck, and the cabin
filled with water. At the moment OF
this sad disaster he was in the cabin,
where he remained until next morning
up to his chin in water, before he was
able TO extricate himself from that aw-
full situation. Being unable to effect a
passage to the deck by the companion
ladder, he was compelled to dive thro'
hole in the bulk head before he could
extricate himself. Upon reaching the
deck, he found that his unfortunate
companions were gone. Dick was the
last person seen on deck, who was ex-
claiming with the utmost anguish, "We
are all lost After capsizing and
drifting on shore, the boat partly right
ed, and when the boy lett her she lay
on her beam ends.
After reaching the shore, the boy
wandered about several hours before ne
could find any person to whom he
could communicate his distress
when he came to the house OF Captain
Dudley, who gave him kind recep
ton, and administered to all his wants
with the solicitude of a parent. MIR
Bigley and John House, we understand
have left families to deplorc this sac
visitation of Him who rides in the
whirlwind and directs the storm.
