the intelligence of the ship's loss being sent to England. Those in the pinnace suffered intensely. They were exposed in the boat for thirteen days; many became delirious, and all were in a shocking condition. On the 14th of that month the boat gained the main land, forty miles west of Rangoon, where the natives acted with friendship and hospitality.

The Orpheus, 382 tons, engaged in the East India trade, was lost on the 18th of October, outside the harbour of Cochin; crew saved.

The Hanover, 700 tons, ran upon the rocks at the entrance of the harbour of Bath, United States, on the night of the 9th of November. She went to pieces within ten minutes after she struck, and twenty-six men-the entire crew, excepting the chief mateperished.

The Shepherdess, from Moulmein, encountered fearful gales in the Channel, by which she was reduced to a complete wreck, and went on shore to the westward of Plymouth, on the night of the 6th December. Two of the crew jumped overboard, and were drowned; the rest of the

crew scrambled on to the rocks, and were saved.

31. CLOSING OF THE PALACE COURT.-This ancient Court, whose iniquities have been so long forced upon public notice, having been abolished by Act of Parliament, was this day finally closed.

At 11 o'clock Mr. Brent took his seat on the bench for the last time, and the Court was opened by the crier (Mr. Eley) in the usual manner. The attorneys attended, as well as the officers of the Court, but the barristers did not appear.

The Deputy Prothonotary (Mr. Hewlett) inquired whether any person present had any business to transact in the Marshalsea or Palace Courts?

No answer was given to the interrogatory.

The Prothonotary told the crier to adjourn the Courts.

Mr. Eley went through the usual form of adjournment for the last time, the Court rose never to resume its sittings; and the doors of the Court were finally closed to the administration of justice, or, as it was more generally considered, of injustice.

The MINISTRY, as it stood at the Opening of the Second Session of the Fifteenth Parliament, appointed to meet 21st of September, 1847, and from thence continued till the 1st of February, 1849.
