Last week arrived here the Adamant, from London, with General Carleton's Lady and sister, and other female passengers on board; passing the Island of Bicquet, in the River St. Lawrence, with a fair wind, and no Pilot to be got, by twelve o'clock at night, on Sunday fortnight, she, and another ship following her, got on a rock on the east end of Reed Island, by being deceived in the course by a large chart of that river: the Adamant, being a strong ship, beat over the rock, with the loss of both her anchors; but the other ship in company, loaded with wine and brandy, went all to pieces in an hour's time; the people were saved by the Adamant, who went back to Bicquet, and lay till a Pilot came from Quebec. The General's Lady landed, and would not trust herself any further on the water, but took land-carriage for 70 or 80 miles over a bad road to Quebec.
