The following information on arrivals, due to the condition
of the papers, has been taken from
various sources including the Montreal Gazette MG, Montreal
Herald MH,
and the Canadian Courant & Montreal Advertiser CC.
note: if
ships' rigging or name of Master unpublished, it is indicated by -- (The newspapers
were often
filmed within their binding, making one side of some entries, unreadable, or
only partly legible. This can lead to errors in the interpretation of the entry
or missed entries. ) Be aware that there may be two or more ships of the same
name, from the same, or different ports, during the same year. A few ships also

Passengers:
In the Packet ship Hudson, 9th August from London, at New York,
Mr. J.M. Jackson, Miss Jackson, Miss G. Jackson, and servant,
of Canada and Mr. Smith.
In the Manchester, sailed from New York for Liverpool on the
16th inst., Mr. Price, of the Drury Lane Theatre.
Upwards of twenty sail have arrived since Saturday last, many
of them on their second voyage. Several more are in the river,
bound up.
Latest from France:—
The ship America, Captain Moran, arrived last night (21st Sept) from Havre.
The papers furnished by her are Paris dates to the 12th, and Havre dates to
the 12th August. We present the following extract . . .
The frigate Hebe had arrived at Havre, with five million francs, the first instalment
from the Haytien government, accompanied by an agent to see the funds duly delivered.
From the Brockville Recorder, Sept. 25
Steam Boats:— The present seems to be a period of misfortune to the
Lake and River navigation, as we think will be readily granted when we inform
our readers, that the Steam Boat Queenston on her trip upwards,
last week, is said to have ran down the Kingston Packet.
Whether the blame is to be attached to the Queenston or the Packet we have
not learned. The encounter, however, has not prevented the Queenston making
her usual trips.
On Tuesday morning last, the Steam Boat Canada, which runs between York and
Niagara, whilst clearing the Niagara river, came in contact with the American
Boat Martha Ogden, which was materially damaged, she having been near sinking.
The Steam Boat Toronto, is stated to have burst her steam
conductor, which has prevented her accomplishing her usual trips down the
river.
The Steam Boat Frontenac, which has escaped accident during
this general visitation, made a trip to Prescott for the first time, last
week, and landed several passengers at this place on passing, among whom was
the Rt. Rev'd. Lord Bishop of Quebec, who has proceeded on a visiting tour
to Perth where he was to have preached and administered the rite of confirmation
yesterday. He is expected to be in this place tomorrow. |

Quebec, October 2nd
On Friday morning (Sept 29) six or seven of the seamen of the Captain
Cook,
Quickfall, who had been imprisoned for refusing to do duty during the ship's
stay here, about six weeks, were put on board of the vessel under a guard of
the 79th. The Captain Cook sailed the same morning for Bristol.
The bark Granicus, Wilkie, from Cork, lying at J.S. Cambell's
[sic] Cove, fell over on her broadside last Friday morning. She was righted again
on Saturday evening
by the assistance of the steam-boat Hercules and the boats of the vessels of
war, with no other damage than the loss of two of her masts.
Accident:— On Thursday last, about two o'clock p.m. as the Steam
Boat William Annesley, in proceeding from this City [Montreal]
to
the
opposite
shore, attempted
to get through the usual channel round the rocks, when about halfway across,
the current running very strong, obliged her to wheel suddenly round, which motion
caused what is generally termed a lurch. Mr. Stephen Westover, of Sutton, and
Mr. Henry Rosenberger of St. Amand, with his wife, who were sitting in a waggon
on the deck, were thrown overboard, the tail board of the waggon being forced
out by the quick turn of the boat. Mr. Westover was unfortunately drowned, but
the other two were saved by the prompt exertions of the people belonging to the William
Annesley, who lost no time in lowering the small boat, which picked
up Mrs. Rosenberger, whose husband caught hold of the Water Wheel (the Engine
having been stopped the instant the accident occurred) and was taken aboard uninjured.
The part of the River where this circumstance took place requires improvement
very much, as the passage is really dangerous in its present state.
HEBREW LANGUAGE SIMPLIFIED
and taught in a short time |
The subscriber intending to remain in Montreal for some time will (if
permitted) in the course of the next week propose to give LECTURES on the
above language to the Rev'd. Clergy, and others upon a system devised by
himself, and attested and approved of by some of the most respectable and
learned Clergymen, Presidents and Professors of Colleges and Seminaries,
in the United States of America.
Recommendatory Letters and References will accompany the proposals.

Colonial Intelligence:
| EMIGRATION TO CANADA |
In the September number of Blackwoods Magazine,
which we received by the Canada, we find the following, in an article on
Emigration, given as the views of the Canada Land Company :— Albion.
The Canada Company having concluded their
arrangements with Government, for the purchase of the Crown Reserves and
a large territory in Upper Canada, might now enter into contracts with
societies, disposed to settle in that healthy and fertile country.
The reserves are scattered in lots of 200
acres each, over all the located and cultivated townships in the province,
extending from the river Ottawa to the St. Clair, along the banks of Lake
Ontario and Lake Erie, about 500 miles, and consist of the richest soil,
under a climate in no respect inferior to that of the state of New York.
The Territory is united on two sides with ranges of those townships, and
is equally advantageously situated having access to it by water along the
other boundaries.
The Company does not intend to send out settlers,
nor to give direct encouragement to emigrants destitute of property, because
undertakings of that kind may be done to greater advantage by individuals
possessed of capital purchasing either detached lots or larger tracts,
or by families uniting their means for co-operation and society.
The company when required, will partially
clear lots, and build such houses as may be neccessary for the reception
of settlers. Their lands will probably be disposed of according to the
following classes :—
1. Lots prepared for settlement by clearing
five acres, & building a cottage. Such lots to be disposed of at annual
payment of probably little more than 1s. per acre. If the house and clearing
cost £50, that sum to be redeemed within a certain number of years
by annual instalments.
2. Lots similarly prepared to be disposed
of at a rent supposed of 2s. per acre on lease ; but the purchaser to be
allowed the option at any time within the first fifteen years, to purchase
the lot at 20 years value of the rental.
3. Lots to be sold for ready money, without
improvements.
4. Lots to be sold payable by instalments
in ten years, seven years, and five years, as may be agreed on.
5. Lots to be sold, with improvements for
ready money.
6. Lots to be sold, with improvements, payable
by instalments.
7. Lots to be sold, with or without improvements,
purchasers paying down a certain fee, or grassum (a lump sum) ; the and
remaining subject to a small quit-rent or feu-duty.
A man, bred to agriculture, who arrives
in Upper Canada with £100, may, in the course of a very few years,
look forward to the enjoyment of comfort and independence as a proprietor
of land, on which, accordng to the terms of his bargain, he may have but
little or no rent to pay, assuredly few taxes, and neither tithes nor poor
rates. With persons of this description the Company will treat upon the
most accommodating principles.
At the office, and from the agents of the
Company, either by personal application, or by letter (post paid), information
will at all times be afforded regarding vessels bound to Canada, the rates
of freight and passage, stores requisite for the voyage, and assistance
will be given to parties when embarking, to protect them from unneccessary
trouble and expense. A map of the province is ready for publication, compiled
from actual survey, in which the districts, counties, and townships, are
all exhibited ; and those in which the Company have lands are particularly
dsitinguished. At the offices of the Company, and of the agents, separate
plans of each township, with the Company's lots therein specially marked,
will be open for public inspection ; so that emigrants may, before their
departure, select any particular neighbourhood in the country, of which
they may, have acquired information, or where they may have friends already
settled.
Emigrants who have money to take with them,
will upon paying it into the hands of the Company in London, or to their
agents at the out-ports, receive orders for the amount, payable either
at Quebec, Montreal, Kingston, or York ; & duplicates will, at the same
time, be delivered, to be left in this country ; so that, in case of accident,
the amount may be recovered by the representatives of the parties.
N.B. The Company has not yet published any
view of their intended proceedings ; so that, although the foregoing has
been made up from conversations with gentlemen in the company's office,
it is not to be considered as the entire plan of operation which may be
ultimately carried into effect, but only as an outline of the views on
which that plan will be formed. |

Steam Boat Accident.— On Thursday evening about 8 o'clock, the
steam boats
Congress and Phoenix, both running at the rate
of 7 or 8 knots an hour, came in contact with each other about ten miles on this
side of Burlington (VT), on the
opposite side of the lake (Champlain), by which the former received considerable
injury.
We have only heard of one life being lost, that of a poor woman who crossing
the shaft at the time, was crushed to pieces. Another woman was dying at Port
Kent, but whether from wounds received on board the boat, we know not. We have
ascertained the following particulars of this disastrous catastrophe, from an
authentic source. The Congress on her way to Whitehall (NY)
had
left
the village of
Port Kent (a stopping place) about ten minutes, when the Phoenix was
seen close
ahead.— The night being dark and the Congress, under the
shade of the mountains, it is supposed that her lights were mistaken for those
of the village by the
Phoenix, as she fired a gun at the same moment she struck the Congress,
which
was
crowded
with cabin passengers, male and female. After they had awaked from the shock,
to describe the scene that ensued is impossible. Some crying that one boat was
sinking, and some the other. The cries of the women and children were heart-rending.
When the tumult had somewhat subsided, and the passengers assured that the danger
had ceased, every one began to search for their baggage. They soon found that
the baggage-room with all its contents had been carried away. The bow of the
Phoenix struck the larboard wing of the Congress,
which was entirely carried off. A number of the beams which support the deck
were broken. The greater part
of the baggage belonging to the passengers entered for Whitehall was lost ; that
of the others intending to land at intermediate places was fortunately on deck.
It was more than half and hour before the boats disengaged. The Phoenix then
towed the Congress into Port Kent, where they arrived about
eleven o'clock. On the following morning the Phoenix proceeded to Whitehall with
such of the passengers
as were inclined to proceed—a number being obliged to return in consequence
of losing their baggage and money. The Phoenix arrived, on her return at Port
Kent on Sunday morning, where she took the returning passengers on board and
arrived at St. Johns that night about eleven o'clock. The mail made up in this
city on Wednesday last for New York was lost. An unsuccessful search had been
made for it.— There are about sixty feet depth of water where the accident
occurred.—Montreal Gazette |
| note: and additional news item in the October
14th issue identified the woman killed, as an Irish woman named
Catherine Kane. |

Hurricane:
A severe equinoxal hurricane was experienced on the 5th and
6th September, in about lat. 32° N. and lon. 77° W.
Several vessels, dismasted in the gale have since been
seen under jury
masts, making for the nearest ports, and some spars and other
articles, have been passed by vessels which have since arrived.
The Liverpool papers give some particulars of the severe gale
on the English coast on the 6th and 7th of September. Many
vessels were driven on shore, others were sunk, and all the
passengers and crews were drowned. The several steam vessels
which sailed for different ports all rode out the gale in safety.
One of them, the Manchester, made a passage direct from Dublin
to Liverpool encountering a tremendous sea, but weathered the
gale in safety.
New York, Oct. 21
Steam Navigation in the Winter:— Captain Ward
proposes to connect his newly invented apparatus to Steam Boats,
for the purpose of navigating our rivers during the winter season,
by cutting a passage through the ice. The bows of the boat are
to be defended by a frame-work of timber, which will come in
contact with the floating masses, while several large circular
saws, seven feet in diameter, with heavy hammers, all worked
by the steam engine, will cut and break the ice ahead and open
a way of more than sufficient width to admit it. It is needless
to say that if this invention should prove successful even
so far as to render the Hudson river navigable for four, three,
or two months longer than it is at present, it would prove of
great advantage to the city, and to those who adopt the plan.
The model has received the approbation of experienced men.— D.Adv. |

Captain Handyside, of the brig Pomona, hence the 20th August for Peterhead, has
come up to Quebec in the St. Lawrence. He reports that in long. 34,3 W a heavy
sea struck the Pomona, which started her stern post, and she became water logged
immediately. After remaining in the foretop six days himself and the crew, with
the exception of three who perished, were taken off the wreck by the Traveller,
of Bristol, and on the 6th inst. were put on board the St. Lawrence.
Early Snow.— On Thursday night it froze so hard that ice fully
an inch thick was formed, and yesterday, even in situations exposed to the sun,
the ice,
hardly thawed. In the evening snow commenced falling and the ground is today
covered with it to the depth of two or three inches. On Tuesday snow fell in
the parishes six or eight leagues to the south of Quebec. Carioles have been
used in the vicinity of Quebec. |

| Extract of a letter, dated |
Bathurst, Bay Chaleur, September 27. |

| "On Monday last the Alexander, from
Aberdeen arrived here ; 6 or 8 days previous, when about 2 leagues to the
N.W. of St. Paul's
Island fell in with the brig John Twezell (John
Twizell), of South Shields,
abandoned by the crew. She is timber laden, apparently from Quebec ; in
5 hours they pumped her out, the topgallant and studding sails had been
taken from her, topsail yard lowered on the cap, try-sail and spencer hauled
up, jib stowed, and all the small articles taken away—an auger was
found in the after peak. The Alexander succeeded in bringing her into the
Bay, when the master gave her in charge to Captain Hogg (one of his owners)
who carried he into Carraquette ; they purpose sending her home immediately." |

Twizell, Captain Grant, had arrived at Quebec
August 1st, from Dublin with 156 settlers ; she cleared for sailing for

The Alien question has come into play in our courts. An action
of ejectment was tried last week, and the plaintiff defeated
in consequence of his father having resided in the United States
after the treaty of 1783.
The father of the Plaintiff was born in the United States previous
to the revolution.
A dreadful accident happened early on Wednesday morning on board
the Winscales, Capt. Brown, in this harbour.
A sailor, who in a moment of excitement, arising from intoxication,
was dancing on the deck, fell into the hold to a depth of 20
feet, and was killed on the spot. An inquest will be held this
day.— Quebec Gazette |

upwards went on shore at St. Vallier last Saturday morning, with
loss of
one anchor and windlass. It is expected she would be got off
on the next tide."
Since copying the above, we learn that on Monday evening, during
the storm, the Canadian bilged and filled with water.— Gazette |

Montreal:
On Monday morning last, about five o'clock, the steamboat New Swiftsure,
on
her
passage from Quebec, was run aground about twenty miles below this city. The
Lady of the Lake, on passing the Swiftsure was
hailed by the latter, and immediately had the engine stopped, and sent a boat
along side. A number of the passengers
who had been in the Swiftsure at the time of the accident, were
taken on board
the Lady of the Lake and conveyed to Montreal ; others remained
and have not
yet made their appearance.—
We were informed by the passengers that the
accident was entirely owing to the negligence or ignorance of the pilot, who
mistook the regular channel, and thus caused the delay of the Swiftsure, which
at this season of the year must be a serious inconvenience to the Company.
The Lady of the Lake left Quebec at half-past eleven o'clock on Saturday night,
and arrived here a little after ten on Monday morning ; she is a very swift boat,
and her accomodations for passengers much superior to what her external appearance
indicates. |

The Weather:
On Saturday evening a severe frost set in, and has continued since that time,
by which our streets have received more improvement than they did for the six
months preceeding. Passengers can now walk wth dry feet, who were, last week
obliged to wade knee deep through the mud, especially in the neighbourhood of
the new College Bridge, where it was really dangerous to attempt passing.
We understand that some of the Steam Boats have been sent to their winter quarters,
and if the frost continues, the remainder must very soon follow the same example.
KINGSTON, Nov. 14
We regret exceedingly that it is not in our power to give a more favourable account
of the Steam Boat Niagara. On Friday last she was lying in about
four and a half feet of water, off Poplar point, 50 miles from this place, and
there is but little
probability of her being got off this season. We perceive by the York papers,
that the passengers have expressed their entire approbation of Captain Mosier's
conduct. The passengers' names are Samuel Clowes ; Smith Griffin ; George Rikert
; Thomas Bell ; David Sleeper ; Ronald Chisholm ; Thomas Moore ; David Simpson
and John Leighton. |

A schooner has been despatched to save materials.

Nov 23— brig Duchess
of
Gloster, King, (for) Liverpool
Shipping Intelligence:
The Abeona sailed on Wednesday for London. The Duchess
of Gloster, (the last
vessel) sailed on Thursday morning. The navigation is quite open.
The bark Thomas Wallace, Brown, came up on Wednesday, she lost
both anchors, rudder &c. and is full of water. The damage sustained is her hull
is supposed not to be so great as at first stated— it will however be impracticable
to send her to sea again. She is now dismantled and hauled up inside of Atkinson's
Wharf.
STEAM BOATS.—
The Edmond Henry, the last boat in port, repaired to her winter
quarters, Boucherville,
on Monday, where the Laprairie and the St. Lawrence Steam-boat
Company's boats,
Quebec, New Swiftsure, Waterloo, Chambly, Malsham and Lady
Sherbrooke are laid up. The latter boat has had her engine taken out,
which with one of similar power, now making by Mr. Ward, will be put into the
new boat John Molson, now building by Mr. Farrington, which
will be ready for
launching on the opening of navigation. The Hercules and Richelieu winter
at
Sorel ; the Lady of the Lake, at Bout de Lisle ; the Montreal at
La Tortue. This
boat will in the course of the winter, undergo a thorough repair ; be made much
larger, and will ply during the navigation of 1827, between Montreal and Longueil.
The William Annesley, winters in the Lachine Canal. This boat is also to undergo
a thorough repair ; and will during the ensuing summer, ply between Point Fortune
and Hull.— Gazette |

QUEBEC, December 7th
The Quebec Packet, Atkinson, which sailed from
this port for London, on the 25th ult. struck on Red Island on
Wednesday the 29th, and as it was found that she leaked, was
run ashore at Trois Pistoles, to be examined, when the damage
she had received was found so considerable, it was neccessary
to put back to Quebec. The ice formed in the river so fast,
that she could only, after considerable difficulty reach Patrick's
Hole, about nine miles below this port, where she now lies with
four feet of water in her hold.
The Quebec Packet is the vessel which was seen beating up on
Saturday off Berthier, and was conjectured by some to be the
vessel with detachments of the Staff Corps, under Major Duvernet.
No information of the vessel bringing out those detachments has
been obtained, and the reports published that she had been lost
are without foundation.— Old Gazette
The Weather.—
Considering the advanced period of the season, the weather is
remarkably mild. Since our last, we have had a little frost,
which hardened the streets, so that the inhabitants may go to
market without wading mid-leg in mud as was the case last week.
The country roads, however, are in a most wretched state, particularly
those between St. Johns and LaPrairie. This has occasioned the
United States mail to be irregular in its arrival here for some
time past, and the disappointment must continue until the winter
sets in, so as to insure good and expeditious travelling. The
river is perfectly open, and the atmosphere so mild, that batteaux
continue to run between this city [Montreal] and LaPrairie, in
the utmost safety. |
