As soon as this re gimeut was dismissed, they repaired to their different scenes of diversion. Most of them, however, were attracted by me. One pulled out the tassels of my boots, another unbuttoned my breeches, (at the knees ma dam.") a fourth siole n y -obacco box and a i fifth strutted with my hat on his head. We were suddenly alarmed by a dreadful up roar in the next room, and on enquiring the cause learnt that the oldest boy, an urchin a bout eleven years old, had upset th? cradle, in which 1 y two of the rickety children, and in running off had o.er urntda table? on flinnJir irnfl ivkn have mvrr r.niintpnnncrtl ! irVurh Ktonrl a set of Crockery lo Con lhat gabble as it is called, or even any low & plete the uproar, every one joined 10 chorus Vulgar expressions, to their children ; 'but' with the sufferer; some venting impreca "Who teach them on all occasions to use theitions cnthe unlucky urchin, who was the most correct language and enunciation their j cause aud others endeavouring to quiet fcfantine faculties and organs are capable of; ; ther.-. by louder vtciferatioi s.

The iiussitn squadron, consisting of six sail of the line and two f rigates, had reached Spithead. for two da a aud. two nights. An English transport from London was lost, with 240 passengers, near Pontusval. Our files of Lloyd's Lists, from the 9th to the 23d December, inclusive, contain gloomy accounts of the loss and damage of nearly 200 sail of foreign vessels, with many livts, on the European coast, during a succession of the most tremendous galei ever known.

The recent discove ries made bv Lieutenant KotZebue, of the Russian navy, and more so, we understand, the reports made by our Greenlandmcn; this season, arc the circumstances which have gi ven a renewed feeling aud interest to the sub ject of a north west passage. The French ambassador, Marquis D'Os mond, had arrived ioXondon from Paris. Accounts from Cadiz of the 17th Novem ber stated that the llussiao ambassador had been there some days waiting for the Rus sian squadron, which had been ceded to Spaiu, upon conditions which remained un- ! known.
