The Dutch galliot Young Anthony, KELLY, Mater, from Lisbon for Amsterdam, laden with tea, fruit, and wool, went on shore about six miles west of the Lizard on the night of Sunday. Fortunately the crew were enabled to save themselves in the boats. Of 1300 chests of tea, which were on board, about 500 have been secured for the underwriters; it is supposed that more than the same number have been secreted by the people near the coast, as of the 50 0saved, nearly 20 0were discovered in a barn, where they were placed by the plunderers who swarmed round the vessel. Exertions are making to secure and recover all of the cargo that can be got at. The vessel has gone to pieces. Mineralogy - We understand that a specimen of English Mineral, sent from Truro by Mr. Arthur PENROSE, Assay-Master, was very lately laid before the Committee of the British Museum. It consisted of a cobalt stone, intimately combines with capillary of filiform silver, weighing upwards of 124 lbs. There were present at the examination, his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Duke of Rutland, the Speaker of the House of Commons, Sir Joseph BANKES, and several other Noblemen and Gentlemen of distinguished scientific knowledge, who examined the stone with evident interest, and unanimously pronounced it the largest specimen of native silver they had ever seen. There is now at Bullock's Museum, in Piccadilly, nearly a ton weight of different sized specimens, bearing the full character of the large one mentioned above. Sanguine hopes are entertained in Cornwall of a good pilchard season. The catch of last year was by no means equal to the increased expense of the extended preparations. The fish caught, however, obtained an extraordinary price; about 5l. per hogshead in Cornwall, and double that sum in the Mediterranean market. There is every promise of the market proving equally good this season; and preparations are accordingly making on an extensive scale. - May they be rewarded with abundance! Five men have been convicted of inlisting into the 55th regiment of foot, and of having denied at the time of inlistment that they were privates in the Glamorgan Militia, and committed to the Gloucester House of Correction for one week.
