LOSS OP THE THANES EAST INDIANAN. Mr. Henry Barry, the purser of the ship, arrived late on Sunday night at the India House, with the melan choly inielligeoce of the loss of the Hon. Company's ship, the thames, Capt. Heaviside, bound to Bencoolen and China, with a general cargo of great value. The Thames was nearly a new ship, of 1350 tons hinthen; had been only one voyage before, and the following in teresting particulars were cotuniunicated to us by a friend of that officer's:— The Thames left the Downs at 12 o'clock on Wed nesday last, with a smart breeze front the S. W. and contoured beating to the westward with fine weather, until Saturday at noon, when she weathered Beachy Head, th, wind then blowing a brisk gale. As night approached the gale increased, and the wind still setting the S. W. strong apprehensions were entertained that the ship would be driven upon a lee shore. T. prevent this, every eflint that seamanship could desist was used , and the stronges endeavours were made to keep an ulliug, but all 10 00 purpose; the gale con tinued to increase s and as darkness cattle no, it blew a complete hurricane; so tremendous as almost to exceed any thing the most experienced seamen on hoard had ever before wi nessed. Finding the ship making fast towards that dreadful shore wlttc6 bad so often proved fatal to 111J1ii,ris, an order was given to continence firing signals of dis ress, and at. incessant firing was front that tim e kept, but such was the slate of the elemeins, that all idea of assiseitice from the shore was soon abandoned as hopeless. The state of mind of the ship's company at this period, can be better imagined than described.— The vessel every moment approaching nearer the shore ; the sea twining mountains high,..anil die moon, which afforded a dim light through the dark clouds, serving only to mike their extreme danger the more apparent. — At length about twelve o'cick the ship struck on a rock. very near the Head, hot she floated from thence, and drifted over near to die town of Eastbourne, between the ROUIOI.IIOIISe :11111 the Martellmiower, whete she again struck, and gust quite ashore. This was SOOll atter two o'clock on Smithy morning; and from that until half-past Male the ship continued to beat with tremen dous violence against the shore, atid every iticceding wave was expected to shatter her to pieces. The sante incessant firing was kept up; lights in a short were very speedily skewu truth die shore; and in a Aunt nine the beach was covered with people, all anxious to assist tit time pron. rvalion of the crew, but inifortuilately without the power of doing so at that tittle. Not lung .her the ship struck, her main-mast went by the board, carrying with it four of the crew, and in the comm. of the night the tore and tiszen masts fol lowed, and seven unto of the crew wa‘lied over-board.

'rite owner, \Jr. Blanchard, with some h;ghly respectable officers of the East India Company's Service, are very actively em ployed in superintending the removal of the cargo.— Nothing can exceed the bustle and contusion that pre vail at Eastbourne in consequence of this deplorable event.

Voltce. MANSION HOUSE On Thursday, the well-known Samuel Waddington, who has been some time employed its selling publica tions in Collie's shop, applied to the Lord Mayor for a warrant against a 13ow-street officer, under the following singular circumstances : Waddington stated, that he had to complain of a most gross assault and battery rommitied union his per son by a Bow-street officer, ❑ toted John Patton, who entered Mr. Guide's house, iu Fleet -street, fur the pur pose of making an illegal seizure. An extent its aid had been executed in the house, and the sheriff's officers were in possession. The front shop, however, did not belong to Mr.Carlile, but to himself, and he remained unmolested by those who entered by legal authority ; bait a Bow street officer thought proper to walk out of his own district and enter the city, for the purpose of doing violence to one of the inhabitants. This officer, upon gMlig into the shop, proceeded to seize Soille papers which were in an obscure part of the shop, not at all exposed to public observation, nor intended for public or private sale. Waddington expostulated against the injustice of such conduct, and asked him whether he had any warrant or authority to sanction a measure of SO arbitrary a nature. The officer replied he had on warrant, but it Waddington resisted, he would blow his brains out. lit the course of this impetuous proceeding, Waddington received a blow from the officer, who per severed in his intention of seizing the papers, and left tie shop, not however without leaving his address with the tutored person. It was, Waddington olnerved, perhaps fortuuate for tne officer, that he at first supposed los :madam to be a city officer, for he was resolved not to resist the city polite. Under these cur 1111 l ssaiices, ha called upon me cuter magistrate for protect on, and had no doubt of receiving it. _ _ . . . . . The Lord M tyor asked hint whether the officer had seized the papers upon the ground that they had no rioter's name allixid to thew; and whether NVad dington had about f any copies of those papers ? Waddington replied, that the officer had given no ex planation of his conduct, and deLlared that he bdieved the papers in be most itioliensive. He added, that tore papers hail beets kept ler a shelf, for tne purpose of lwitig used 1 1 1 1 1Killotie the gas of the shop. As for the suspicion 'oat he would poloish any thing witl hav ing the printer's name :Axed to it, there Was 110111111 g to Apia , bend.

Lord Mayor), I appeal to e-or Lord in defence of the in;ivileg.• of .he city of London, as w.II as of the outraged laws of the couoiry." In reply to a qtwation from Mr. Humphreys, Wad dington said the papers which Parton took up before he collared him were printed papers, but that he had only used them as waste paper, never having sold any. Parton, being called on to answer the charge, said he saw printed papers in the window which had not the printer's name, the same as others he had received at the shop front Waddington when snaking a purchase there on the 10th of January. He here produced one of the papers, which was headed, " An Address to all the Pub lic except the Rubbers;" and proceeded to say, that con sidering himself justified by law in seizing the papers, and bringing Waddington before a mastisivrie to answer for exposing them, he went into the shop for that pur pose. lie admitted that he collared 'Waddington. but denied that he threatened to blow his brains out; hut that Waddington said the friends of liberty, who were outside the holm-, meaning a mob who had collected. would not allow him to be taken, he (Porton) said, if any one were to interfere, he would blow his brains out. lie stated that he had not at the time any fire-arms about him. The facts being stated on both sides, Mr. Humphreys produced the act of the 39th of George the fiord, by which it is enacted, that if any person shill sell, or in ahy m inner expose to public view, any printed paper, on which the name of the printer shall not be printed, it shall be lawful for any of his Majesty's subjects to take such person before a justice of the peace to answer for the said offence. The Lord Mayor. on Inokin2 at the act, told Wa.l - it appeared to him that the officer was justified in what he had done. Waddington appeared by no means satisfied with his Lordship's decision, and was reliving to argue the matter, when the I.,rd Mayor repeated that the com plaint. was dismissed. Waddington reluctantly retired from the bar, where he stood, consoling himself, how ever, for the disappointment he had experienced. by the consideration that he hail exposed to public view the outrage that had been committed on him. CORONER'd INaIUEST —TuestlE, morning, at eleven o'clock, an i ig4i.iiion was taken at the Prince Regent, Sevmonr.place, Marylebone, berme Thomas Stirling, Esq. Cormier, on the body of Mr. Harris, nephew, it is said, of an opulent gentleman, by whose death he would have come into ignsession of between 30,0001. and 40,0001. The investigation lasted some hours, and excited the utmost interest. The first Williela examined was James Dodd, a watchman, of Seymour. place, who stated that on the Friday nreceding, at 3110.4 nine o'clock, having heard that a man had dreadfully ill-used his wife in a house in Quern-street, he with oilier watchmen gained ailmiss'ai into the house, in the passage lie Maud the &ceased's wile lying; ihe bottom part of her lice was shatter 41, and she was bleeding profusely at the mouth. lie went into the hark paritmr, and found the deceased lying on his back nit the floor ; a nirgeon was sent tt,r, nn examining the a ; tart mein, he foam' near the window a pistol, which Bail lately been discharged; atwitter pistol was laying neat the right hand tat the deceased, and also appeared to hat e been recently discharged —Mr. John North, of Soy. ~,,, ir-place, surgeon, stated he went to the house of Collinson, in Quern-street, on the Friday preced ing at half-past nine o'clock ; he 101,11)(1 a kin ale severely led on the right side of the lower part of the face; he also observed the deceased lying on his back on the parlour fluor; he appeared to h :ve received very cons'. derable injury.
