spect and esteem of the Dutch Admiral 
Kichchurt, his officers and men, but was 
highly useful and beneficial to the crews of 
our own vessels subsequently wrecked on 
that coast. After this imperfect memoir, it 
is scarcely necessary to say that the late 
Admiral Russell was an officer of consider- 
able talent. ‘To the qualities of a thorough- 
bred English seaman, with the science ‘of an 
able naval tactician, he possessed the nicest 
and highest sense of honour, with the man- 
ners and urbanity of a courtier. He was 
brave, generous and humane ; such a rare 
combination of high and admirable qualities 
will ensure his name being enrolled with 
the illustrious naval heroes of bis time.

An alarming flux and reflux of the sea 
took place within the month at Plymouth : 
at one period, in less than five minutes, the 
same place presented dry ground and a body 
of water two and a-half feet deep! Similar 
phenomena were observed at Weymouth, 
Poole, in the river Dart, and on the Cor- 
nish, .Devon, and Welsh coasts generally. 
The floating bridge at Plymouth across 
the Laira was, in consequence of the sud- 
den ebbing of the tide, suspended in the 
air for a short time, from the chain by 
‘which it.is worked. -» Barges were also left 
dry on the breakwater.
