sad Bleakwaler al Paritshead.-11 is in
contemplation to form a company Tor the conatroc•
lion of a pier or breakwater at Portehead, near the
mouth of the river Avon, "to secure, at all times of
the tide, a safe and commodious station for ,eream
ships,' merchant vesses, and other craft, bourid for
Bristol and the ports of the Severn; and also to feed
ate the transmission of the Welsh end' Irish, and
(ultimately) of the foreign mails, to and from the
kingdom." The capital proposed to be raised for
carrying the above join execution, is 60,0001., in
shares of 201. each. The desireability of this im
provemeift must Jie generally admitted, and particu
larly from the fact that, in all negotiations thathave
transpired, whether with the government or public
companies, for making• the !port of Bristol a small
packet Station, the erection - sof a pier at Portiahead
has been insisted upon as indispensably necessary.
On Monday, when the bishop of Durham was
proceeding from Whitburn to Tynerisocith, he was

proceeded to discusa.the affairs of the nation, and
the Bishop reasoned with his fellow passenger ; till
tit length the latter, displeased that he wail not al
lowed to have the matter all his own way, rqdely
iced the Rev. prelate by the collar, and maintained
s hold until be was compelled to relinquish it.

(Mltchell. a beer seller) were foucd five fowling pie.

The Thesis at Derby and in the seigabaurimod.—
The late rains have dune considerable dama g e in
Derby and the neighbourhood. Dtiring the whole
of T..esday night •and the greater part of Wedues

'Dlrwent is said by some to have been the largest
that has occurred since the year 17957. The mea
dows were curnplete/y covered, and we are sorry to
say a considerable quantity of hay has bten washed
east or spoiled. The 'lreot has alao overflovied its
bank. and damaged the hay crops. SS a fear the loss
sustained by some of the farmers in this district will
'be serious.
Chesterfield end the neighboarhoixi. were milled
with the largest flood, with the exception or one.
that hari been known in the memory of the oldest
inhabitants.
The amount of damage done by this flood, is at

washed away by the stream. Several wooden bridges
hate been swept away, and the heavy rains have

There js not in the Brant Isles a fairer valley

“ A long hatred Cavalier—be it so, and whither

The other paused ere te replied ; and as he hesi
tated• one of his companions wheeled - from the left, a
movement that passed not unobserved by the cava
lier. and with somewhat sorry` grace, he declared his
willingness-to visit the tiostetr7.
It was a long low building;' strongly 'formed of
rough undressed stones. Its porch had loop-holes
fur musquetry its windows were ,proteebvl by
strung bars of iron—an angry streamlct gushing-o
ver loose and broken stones which it had torn from
the mountain above, formed a deep moat round tile
building, and to add to its martial character, the"
party had no sooner crossed a rustic bridge than they
were 'challenged by a guard of soldiers. The cava
lier at this could not conceal his uneasiness.
" By our lady ! comrades of mine," said he "ye

It is in truth sorneichat of both, and as OCCII-4013
requires, serves fur either ; but that little recketh.
thou shalt find good entertainment, stud thy steed

It was now too late to retreat, and the cavalier
disthounting, and grvtn; his horse to the groom, en•
tered the building tedOwed by his companions. A
large fire was blazing ou the hearth, huge waien ta
pers stood upon the board, and the drowsy soldiers
that occupied the benches glanced listlessly at the
cavalier. The light showed him to be a young mars,
of middle age, but strongly and gracefully built, his
features were plain, but animated by a keesi and
bright eye that told of the gallant recklessness of Ms
royal aeherent, and his long rtken hair, sparkling
with night dew as it curled over his shoulders, ad
ded s glace and - beauty to his whale appdirance.
He had no sooner seated himself than t Scamtignum
again addressed hun. o Sir Cavalier, you must even

It will be seen, that although in Tennessee a ma
jority of the members of Congress, elected at. the
same timewith the last election of Governor, are op
pose& to the administration of Mr. Van :/wren, we.
nevertheless have given biro the 15 votes of that
State in the above table. We set down North CAP:
olina as lost to Mr. Van Buren, because, in the r hat
elixtion of Representatives to Congress in thai &ate,
the aggregate of the popular vote for the adminis
tration candidates was 30,832, and that for=the op
position candidates 35,365 showing an actual
ma
joritg of the people of 4,534 against the aduiliiiSui:
anon
With these data before him, we submit to the jtlg
aunt of the candid 'reader, whether it he an eaten-
Milled truth, that according to the latest elections in
.11 the states in the Union, the opposition to Mr. Van-
Buren, tf . kept muted on the Presidential election,
ie not cotwiderably more than equal to Eiji &feet
We shall be ready to stand corrected by any exposit
non of an error in the data hem ni lied on.
But, mark the {act ; ace do not believe that, in cast;
the opposition are united, Mr. Van Barren can carry
the Tote of Tennessee. General Jackson carried a
in 1628, and again in 1632 ; but Mr. Van Buren
could not carry it with all Jackson's influence' in
1536, nor for Repreicnnaives tamable br his pol/ry
to lsn.
Nor. in case the opposition unite, do we tellete
that Mr. Van Buren can carry the vote of Delaware
for General Jackson could not carry it against Itr*
Clay, in 1832, nor . could lift,. V.IlLa Buren again- - *
General Harrison in . 1836. it is set - down for 11. f.
Van Buren, because the ad.miiiistration'enslidate foe
Congress holds the certifirati of election, though up
on votes that will probably be connsied. Nor in
case the opposition unite, can Mr. Van Bol!it carry
Ohio ; for although Gen. Jacksob earned Ohio in
1632 by a majority of 5600, Mr. Van Buren could
carry it againsiGen. Harrison in 1536. For the
same rea..on, we believe he has no prospect of carry -
ang Indiana against Gen. Harrison.
These several Stairs; whose votes amount. to 418,
taken from Mr. Van Burro's before named aggregate
of 135, leave him only 87 Elmtoralmoses, while their
addition to the opposition 'vote of ISO, nukes an ag- .
gnegate of 207.
But we think it not improbable, in case the oppo
sition should unite, that Mr. Van Buren may obtain
the votes of Louinans, Booth Carolrrta. and
srppi; t0ta.:14., arid lose those at Illinois and
gin, B—garinng in this 16 Totes, which added to n 7,
