This day also they had nothing to eat. In this dreadful condition they re mained file' some days. Part of a cask of water was got at, but it was at first two-thirds salt, and bitted/ no fresher than the wave that washed over them. lit was, however, drank, except by two or three of the men, and was eagerly resorted to by those in parti cular who afterwards died, who asked for it as fast as it could be handed to them. On the Friday night a boy and a man died; on the Wednesday following, after a week of privation, another man died ; and on Thursday a fourth. The Captain had a dog on board, which being a favourite, he was unwilling to kill until the last ex tremity. After being nine days without nourishment or water, save a few drops caught on the poop when it rained, and which, owing - to the spray, were little ,fresher than the sea itself, it was on Thursday repre amed to the Captain, that they must all perish unless the dog were killed for subsistence. To this be at length agreed, and the animal being bled to death, the Captain directed the Mate (Mr. M'Cloud, from whose information this narrative is drawn up) to serve out every part equally and economically, which he did by dividing the blood with a table- 1 spoon ; three spoons-full to each man,•and the liver, heart, and kidnies, were divided into 15 shares each, and distributed for that day's subsistence. About this time, the Captain, who had throughout suppressed the expression of his sufferings, lest he should inti midate the men, became deranged—rushed upon deck—bid GOD bless his wife and children—spoke of mutiny in the ship, and used other incoherent language. He was prevailed upon to go to his cot, where, after twenty-four hours of insanity, and suffering, he ex pired. The whole of the survivors now became so weak, that only the Mate, a robust young man, and three others, could stand : these steered the vessel as well as they could towards the east, the westerly gales still prevailing. As they conjectured they had sailed, since water-logged, about 600 miles, they were in hopes of seeing the land of Ireland, or they would have given up every exertion for preserva tion ; but on the afternoon of Friday (the 11th day) it became more calm, and the wind suddenly changing to the eastward, blighted all their hopes. They had not seen a vessel during the whole passage, and a glimpse of hope rushing upon them that some one might fall in their way, they hauled up the fore sail, made fast the tiller, and committed themselves the whole of that night to the guidance of PROVW °sum By this time three-quarters of the dog were consumed. At day-break next morning, they saw, with inexpres-ible delight, a vessel to leeward. The Mate, and the few who could drag their emaciated limbs, managed to set the foresail, and with some pieces of canvass made a sort of signal from the top mast rigging. As soon as the people in the vessel pied t hem, they laid their sails aback. and hoisted out their boat, which was soon alongside of them.— The sea was so rough, that the boat had to make se veral trips to rescue all the survivors. The wreck was of course abandoned, being then in lat. 45. N. long. 28. W. a very great distance from any land.— It was providential that the wind changed to the east ward, which threw this vessel in their way, as she otherwise would have passed them during the night. She proved to be the Ann, of New York, Captain Crocker, bound to Liverpool.--" Everything," says the Mate of the Barrett, " was done for us, which me dicine, meat, drink, and hospitality could supply, and my own father could not have treated me with greater kindness than Captain Crocker." The Anr. arrived at Liverpool on Friday night last, a week after taking the sufferers from the wreck, who, during this time, with the exception of one or two, were unable to rise from their hammocks. They are all of them so weak and emaciated, having their limbs also broken out in ulcers, owing► to the continued action of the salt-water for eleven long days, that they will be unable for some weeks, even with every attention, to pursue their perilous vocation. The survivors are twelve iu number. Among these is J. Caldwell, son of Mr. W. Caldwell, of Frodsham, conveyancer. ORATORIO. DRURY-LANE THEATRE.—According to annual custom, the regular performances of the two Houses were suspended yesterday, in commemoration of the death of CHARLES the FIRST, and an Oratorio was given at this Theatre, under the able direction of Sir GEORGE SMART. The first and second parts consisted of selections from The Messiah and Mount of Olives, and the third was Miscellaneous. VRAHAM, as usual, took the lead, and was ably Itspported by PYNE, MTS. SALMON, Miss GOODALL, Miss Povsy, and Madame Castroaltse. The last mentioned Lady made her first public appearance, since her return from the Continent, on this occasion. Her reception was most flattering. She gave, at the end of the First Part, a Recitative and Air, with great taste and science, which obtained the honour of ati encore. A new Concerto was then performed, in which Mr. LINDLEY introduced the beautiful Scotch air of The last time I came o'er the moor; and displayed his astonishing powers on the violoncello, in a manner that called , forth the most rapturous applause. Mrs. SALMON gave with excellent harmony " 0! ki eternal honours crown his name." Miss Povev and Miss GOODALL were honoured with warm testimonials of approbation. Mr. BRAIIAM'S performance of LUTHER'S Hymn, "Great Gen! what do I sec and hear was a most splendid specimen of solemn harmony, and it was called for again in a tone that admitted of no evasion. In the third act, in " See, from the silent grove Alexis flies," his powers of giving delight were most fully called into play, and happily connected as they were with LINDLEY'S violoncello, the treat was perfect, and the listeners could imagine nothing that could swell the triumph of harmony. PYNE and Nlgt.soN sung with much taste, and Mr. H CUTLER with in finite science. The performance was successful throughout, and honoured in all its parts with pro found attention and fervent approbation.

They were all young men, and helOnged to a gang of a most desperate description, who have for a long time infested this metropolis. Tobin was the first brought out seemed to be thoroughly sensible of his unfortunate situation. Davis, only sixteen years of age, when brought out was most dreadfully agitated. They were attended by the Rev. Mr. Comm. Joseph Martin, a Jew, with one leg, was the last who came out, attended by a Priest of the. Jewish persuasion. ' During the time of his being tied up, he exclaimed aloud he was innocent.-11111e, who was one of the gang, was respited last night. Just before the criminals were turned off, a young man slipped from the parapet of the wall of the Sec. siuns House-yard, and, falling on the pavement, frac tured his head in a dreadful manner. He was taken immediately to the Hospital. SPORTING. The Honourable Mr. Jrxannotes Ihrrien, last week, found a hare near Shrewsbury, which they chased to the banks of the Severn, where the hounds were at fault. The hare bad taken the water, and when near the middle of the river ceased swim ming, and floated down the stream like a log of wood, for about 200 yards, when the raised bat her ears, and then her head and, finding herself opposite a wood, ►he swam on shore, and after a short run, was killed by the (lop. The Brookside Sussex harriers pressed a hare so hard last week, that the poor animal leaped over the cliff near Black I:07k Bottom into the sea, and was drowned. It was with difficulty the dogs could be prevented from following. The Worcestershire Fox-bounds had a famous chase on WA nesday. After drawing a few covers, they found a gallant fox, which led them a brilliant run of one hour and 45 minute a, wi-h -out a single check, and the fox was at last run into an outsbuikl ing. The chase was upwards of 22 miles over a heavy country, so that but few of the numerous field were in at the death, GREAT DAY'S PLAY AT PIGEON SHOOTIN3. It is at length fixed that the King's Theatre shall open under an entirely new Direction, in the middle of next month, and there is every reason to believe that, from a vai iety of concurring causes, the Opera will be most splendidly attended this season. There was a very grand Concert at the New Argyll Rooms on Saturday last, in commemoration of the birth-day of MozA RT, and the music consisted of selections from the works of that great Master. The Comedy of The Chances will be shortly pro duced at Covent-Garden Theatre, adapted to the Stage in the shape of an Opera. Mr. BISHOP is now occupied in composing the music. A public entertainment has been given to Mr. KEAN, at New York, in testimony of the sense enter tained of his great merits. Mr. KEAN's health having been drank in a most distinguished and flattering manner, he addressed the company (according to the report of the American Papers), in nearly these words: " OTNTLLIALS—TO pass over in silence such unequivocal tes timonials of your approbation would, I fear, savour more of in , sensibility than diffidence; and, while I apologize for my want of eloquence, I must sdd, that I am proud of this flattering op portunity to offer, in the simple language of my heart, my grate ful acknowledgments to the citizens of New York. When the professional man is fortunate enough to blend private esteem with public approbation, he 'must have achieved the very extent of his ambition. 'lli • union of those feelings have been so mani festly conspicuous during my short residence in this city, that it has placed the records of your kindnesses menwria in dons. I have too high an opinion of the sound judgment and liberality of feeling of those Gentlemen whom I have now the honour of ad dressing, not to suppose they would not encourage me in those sentiments of attachment I ever must entertain for that country which gave me birth—for that country in which I have left everything that is dear to me—for that country which, by its plaudits, fanned the humble spark of talent, till it lighted up a reputation which is the passport to your protection—the intro duction to your hospitality ; nor does the influence of your fa vour extend only to the stranger whom you have so generously welcomed. There are heats dear to me, conjoined with mine by ties of affection and alliance, who are, perhaps, at this mo ment anticipating, with joy, my professional success in this country, and will blend your names with their thanks to the grand Dismiss& of liveries. It is there, Gentlemen, in my do mestic circle, I shall dwell on the retrospection of these hours; it is there that I shall instruct the being entrusted to my care to respect and love the patrons of his father ; and while the pages of your history record achievements that give lustre to the political and warlike character of your country, be assured that the Fsnglish Actor will, to the last hour, extol the merits of your private worth, and gratefully transmit his Columbian lau rels to the charge of his posterity.
