One of the gentle men jumped out, and providentially received no injury, but the other gentleman was taken up seriously cut and hurt. The animal finding himself disentangled from the %chicle, still furiously proceeded towards the bridge, where the horse was at length stopped, without doing any homer mischief.

'lnc drags were instantly procured from the Grampus, the Seamen's Hospital ship; but after dragging tile rein.tioder of that day, and the greater part of Mon day, the tinily could tot be found. Doe evenina last sv.ek, about seven o'clock, as Mr. A. Rouse, of Redruth, was returning train 'lntro, after having disposed of tn. ore at one of the smelting-houses; when .between the villages of Chacewaier and White hall, he was fired at by a rutliian who had concealed hunselF brinual some heaps of earth and gravel that lie near the road. The villatit appears to have taken delibe rate aim, as the ball entered under the right shoulder blade, and came out under the ri,:ht breast. Mr lt 's lior,e, frightened at the report, set forward rapidly tier about 300 yards, when the rider fell, and the animal stopped.

The unfortitihve objects of his Lay were immediately . destroyed by the vigilance of the cousiables.—Abuut three weeks sines a dog, affected by 11:,,Irooholna, which was seen about Southampton atid its neighbourhood, bit three fine yard (logs, two of which were w consequence destroyed. By the request of a me dical gentleman, the other dog was chained up for a few (lays longer, in order that the further progress of the Mse ise might be observed; and on Sunday last the dug (lied of the malady in a dreadful state.

THE NATIONAL REGISTER HURRICANZ AT LIIERPOOIo LIVERPOOL, Dec. I.—Yesterday was remarkably fine from early in the morning till towards four in the after noon, when a cold and sharp wind from the west began to blow fresh, and continued to increase in violence till towards midnight it became a perfect harricane; the sea (or river) ran mountains high; the ships in the Mersey were drifted from their anchors; the passage boat across the river dared not face the gale; several Rats, laden and unladen, were dashed to pieces; the beautiful steam ves sel Ivanhoe, Dublin packet, lying tip in the Queen's Basin, was driven with such violence against the pier, that she is now • complete wreck : close to her a sloop, totally broken to atoms; between twenty and thirty flats sunk mid damaged in various parts of the river; • fine Ameri can packet (the 4 ibiun) ashore, and likely to go to pieces before she eats be got off next spring tides; the dimity, A•terican outward hound ship, likewise stranded, with damage, and must be unloaded ; a great number of boats sunk and broken to pieces; a Yorkshire vessel, in which the • ife and family of the captain were, all perished within • few yards of the pier! During the storm, a windmill, situate near the signal-house, oil the Cheshire side, which cumin not lie stopped by any tabu of the miller, took fire, and was b•rued down. Many new buildings, nearly finished, are levelled with the ground; scarce a roof' in the wan has escaped damage, and the falling slates, tiles, and bi.cks, during the tempest, ren dered the streets dangerous for passengers all the night. A melancholy circumstance attended the fatal storm to a mist respectable family in this town:—Mr. Barton, a considerable brewer, and a highly esteemed inhabitant, residing in Scotland-road, retired to rest with his wife and infant at the usual Muir ; and, dreadful to relate, in the dead of the night, a sudden gust of sired blew down a large stack of chimneys, belonging to the premises, on to are roof, exactly over the bed where Mr. and Mrs. Barton and the infant were asleep, and killed the lather and mo titer on the spot, but the child, that lay between throe, was this moaning found alive! Another stack of chimneys tell down in a house near the pit k, and neatly killed a child of two years old, in bed with its mother t who, in her dreadful alarm, rail out of the house screaming fur help, and before assistance could be procured, the falling rub. Irish had blocked up the door-way, sad the upper panels were obliged to be dashed out before any person could get into the room, where the child was heard crytug at inter vals, and neatly 'Mee hours elapsed before they could get at the bed, where the infant was still alive, but much in jured about the head and breast. The gale has continued very strong all day. Au instance of great courage and perseverance donut the storm last night was related to me by the owner of die ship :—A vessel r eady for sea was left at anchor in the liver, in the care of a lad between 12 and la years of age the captain and crew wen eon shine, and could nut have gone to the ship had they been ever ►o well inclined, as nu boat durst ventute from the pier on any account. During the storm, the vessel broke aii eight inch cable shot t in two, and drifted widi the wind ; the boy rail to the tiller, but war knocked down by a sudden lurch of the ship; as soon as lie recovered, lie ran again to the helm, and, with the assistance of a rope, fastened himself sit as to be able to steer the vessel through all the storm sate into the Queen's Basin, where the ON uer found her this inoruing very little injured. HasTratos. Dec. 3.—(Extract of a private letter.)—A melancnoly accident occurred im our beach this morn ing. About half past eight o'clock, a g Wry was perceived to be waking for the shore, with thirteen hands in In r, from a cutter in the rifling; and as the surf was very her , y, many persons were looking, expecting fr he slate of the weather, some mischief would ensue. Ott her making the shore, she came throuLth some very heat y seas said), and had juts, encountered one when the boat eame broadside to ; one of the men in her was seen to stand up, and she immediately upset. The men were most, it not all of them, seen floating about, and every exertion was made, by men swi 11111 l mg our with ropes tastened to their bodies, in order to brit% some of the un inruinate beings on shine. Four were brought in by their exertions, but only three survived ; the other was too far exhausted to be recovered ; time met wit!' a watery grave. One of ihem 1 saw Clinging to an oar for a considerable time after the others bad stink, and waved his hand for 461151.111 U j at last he was overwhelmed in the peaty surf, at a time when a man who had swain OUL Was within a rod of hue. Thus have nine persons perished to sight of hootheds of their fellow -creatures, who had no means of giving them at-sistance. During the prevalence of one of those heavy gales which marked nearly the is hole of last wick, we sails of a wind-mill at Appleton, Yorkshire, were taken a back, and its powerful axie revoked against the fixed principle of its movements. The effect was that of a heavy lever operating upon a light fulcrum; the base of the milt yielded to the unnatural revolution of the sails, and the whole structure upset with a crash, which pot teuded the deal h of the nutter and his man, both of whom had been at work in the upper floor of this fra gi'e cane, in. But " the ways of Providence are inscrut able." This apparently devoted pair crept nom the ruins without the sill:lncat injury, and were of the first to "see after the stock and secure the property." ''nett miracnlous escape is be attributed to this most sistgoLr intervention the elocity of the ax'e, in a ratio con-. trary from its design twisted it out of its pivots, and as the mill veered beiore ns pr, cipitation, the axle reached the ground first—eased the IA of the structure, and left the upper story nearly entire. The mill belonged to Sir Milner; it was let on a repairing lease. Tene ments so leased are not often found in the best repair— All that the neighbours say on the stolject is, that they never expected it to have stood against tile storms of the last ten years. Ois Thursday about twelve o'clock, wh:lkt the maid servant of Mr. Smith, bout dud shile.ithiker, of 45, LVel lington-street, Clerkenwell, was guile on an errand, she left the street door open, when souse sneaking sidaitis went into the parlour, and stole a brlver watch, value six guineas, and escaped undiscovered. I n humation was immediately given of the rubbery at the police-office, Hatton-garden. Sal OF IRELAND. A meeting upon this subject was held on Tuesday, at the Thatched House, St. James's-street. Lord Darnley took the chair. Mr. S. TIGHE opened the business of the meeting. His object was to have that inquiry instituted which should make England acquainted with the real causes of the calamities that now afflicted Ireland. It was a fit subject for the investigation of Parliament, and he there fore moved a petition to the King to convene Parliament as early as possible, to see whether the evil could be re merited, Ireland, amidst its crimes, having escaped the suspicion of disloyalty, and disafkction to the Govein ment.—He then read the petition. Mr. D. DONOVAN, of Cork, declared that the cattle of all Ireland's cal 'es was over-taxation. He diets proceeded to condemn the system of " middle-men." i They must do something more than make a barrack of Ireland, before they would make Ireland better. The truth was, the Government of Ireland was ton expensive; it was much too highly taxed; and till a remedy was applied to that evil, the tranquillity of Ireland could not be restored. Mr. %VELA-5 spoke of the imperfect character of the laws. The proximate causes of the evils were the send ing home of Irish labourers without providing fur their subsistence, and the low prices of the produce of the land. They were so low that the occupiers could not pay the rents which the landlords were entitled to re ceive. Mr. S. Rice, M.P. had no objection to discuss the question—out let it be discussed by open means; before, however, they did any thing, let them pause as to consequence likely to result Irons their conduct. He had just returned from Limerick ; and no man, who had a heart within his bosom, could witness what he had seen without being deeply affected. He begged them to because, if they proceeded, they must do harm. Lord DARNLEY said, under all the circumstances, he submitted whether it would not be better to adjourn the present meeting.—(Hear hear 1 Move, move.) Mr. Mooniest . moved, as an ametlmein, that this be adjourned to a future day, such day of meeting being notified with their noble chairman's name. Mr. Mee, senior, spoke against the interference of gentlemen in England at the present moment, especially as there had been a change of the Irish Ministers—b,. sides, Parliament was about to meet. He was fur ad journment eine the. Colonel To it it Ens thought this meeting had beets most r iperly called. Ile added, that they wanted informatioil ou the subject—of the causes of the evils, and of the remedies Mr them. Those who were present cei tato!). were somewhat impartial—they had no local prejudices to bias them. Lord BLesstarotosr dicl not see any good would re. Silt from adjournment, if they were to petition at all. Mr. %VA TS OH thought those Irishmen who were there ought to be in Ireland; he was sorry to sce so ma:ty Irishmen at the meeting; iu their own country they would be useful. There was danger, and they might 14 be at the post of danger. The question of adjournment was then negatived by a considerable majority. Mr BEECHR k said, he thought Parliament ought to be assembled, nut because he tie,tred severe measures, but because he considered it ought to investigate so im portant a matter. It was then moved by him, that the King, considering the circinlmstances of Ireland, be pe:i. honed to convene Parliament forthwith. The petition was then agreed to, and signed by Lohl DJridey ; after which the weenna adjourned. Howard and Gibbs's Bankruptcp.—ln the Vice- Chancellor's Court, on Wednesday morning, his Honour delivered his judgment in the several peti tions in this bankruptcy. He dismissed the pres,l:it assigneess, and dictated that a new choice of assig nees should be made, but the time of making it to be stayed, to give Mr. Carroll an opportunity of presenting a petition, for the purpose of establish ing his debt under the Commission. During the performance of The 7'seo Gentlemen ef Fcrona, at Covent Garden, on Thursday night, Mr. Abbot, who was acting Sir Proleus, met wiza an accident, which caused great alarm, but happily proved nut to have caused serious injury. In the last banditti scene, the weapon of one of the party struck him with some violence near the eye, kit without touching the organ. A most violent shuck was given to the audience. The report of a profes sional gentleman, however, soon quieted the anxiety that was felt. The performance stopped instantly, but it was very near the conclusion of the play. On Thursday sennight the Mayor of Cork re ceived a communication trom Government, requiri!:4 hint to take away from the venders of gun-powder in that city, their entire stocks in that article. He accordingly took the necessary measnres to put those instructions into execution, and in the course of the day, attended by the Sh,!ritfs and a number of peace officers, proceeded to the houses of all Ow persons in that trade, in the above city, who readily delivered to hitn all the gun-powder in their pos session. Departure of Me Guards for lrcland.—On day morning, at an early hour, the third battaia , A of the First, or Grenadier Regiment of Foot Guar , :R, under the command of Colonel Stewart, began to assemble at their barracks at Kn ightsbridge, tnr the purpose of marching to the Basin of tile G::.!i3 Junction Canal, where boats were waiting to con vey them to Liverpool, on their way to llablin.— The 16th Lancers, the 19th, 49eh, filth, and ;..j regiments are gone w Ireland.
