Favourable winds amid smooth seas had hitherto been our continua attend.. ants, and every thing on board conspired to render the coughs...sent aieLsnonotony of a long voyage less annoying than they usually are. The cabin ittlaw sengersconsnited of Major and Mre. L--, a new samied couple; Miss rioter to the lat ter ; Mr. D—, a young Irishman, sod myself. Our Captain was a man of pleasing manner* and liberal ideas, and formed an important acquiaition a to fford ottr iu p g ar e t v y e . ry by fa j c i i i i ii i i t i y ng to ln the all ind its si ree iteu re c a s tio o n f s and ' them. Much of our time was *Peat in conversetion, said iu walking on deck ; and when the dews of evening obliged us to descend to the cabin, the Captaiii would ()flea entertain us with a relation of the va rious dangers which he and other persons had en costitered at *ea, or detail with great gravity sonic of, the previinnOuperstitioas of. sailors. 'Although fic ptioirseed more general information than usually fiats to the lot of sea-faring persons, his mind was tioctured with some of their weak nesses and prejodices. The Ladies of our party had i great tame for natural history, sod wished to obtain speciineui stall the most interesting kinds of sea-birds. They had severel times requested the Captain to @Wet one of Mother Carry's chickens, that they might take a drawing from it; however, he always declined doing so, 'but never gave any satisfactory reason for his unwillingness to oblige theta in this respect. At last, Mr. 1). killed two of the birds, after having several time. missed whole flocks of them. The Captain seemed very much startled when he saw the ',Mamie (bop On the waves—"" Will you have the goodness to let dose the bout to pick up the geni e?" said Mr. D--. rs Yes, Sir," replied he, rr if you'll go off in her, and never returu on hoard this ves.el—here is a serious laneiesess—be assured we have not seen the end of it." He then walked away without offeriug to give soy orders about loweiiug the boat ; and the seamen, who witnessed the transaction, looked as if they would taut have obeyed him had he even done so. Though we saw no lend, every thing proved that we were in the West India seas. The sky had, 1 , within a fesedays, begun to assume a more doz. zling aspect, sod long ranges of conical-shaped clouds floated along the horizon. Laud birds, with beautiful plumage, often hovered round the vessel, and we eometinies fancied we could discover a vegetuble fragrance in the breezes that swelled our sails. One delightful clear morning, when we were in hourly expectation of milking 16 land, some dol phin opprared astern. As the weather was very moderate, the Captain proposed that we should 6,1 i for them ; and a rest many hooks were imme diately baited for that purpose by the "cameo. We caught large quantities of dolphin, still of afloat r kind of fide and put the whole into the heads of the steward, with orders that part should be dressed fur dinner, amid part distributed among the crew. When the diuuer hour arrived, we ill assembled is the cabin, in hialeopinta, and set down to table. It being St. George's day, the Captain, who was an Englishman, had ordered that every thing should be provided cud set forth in the most sumptuous style, and the steward had done full justice to his directions. We made the swims, which were exqui site and abundant, circulate rapidly, red every glass increased oar gaiety and good humour, while the icflueuce of our mirth rendered the Lerlies addi tionally amusing and animated. The Captain re marked, that as there were two clariusset-players among the crew, we ought to have a dance upon the quarterAeck at nun-set. This proposal was re ceived with much delight, particular'', by the fe males of unr party ; and the Captain had just told the servant in wattitog to bid the mueciaris prepare themaelver, when the mate entered the cabin, and said, that the man at the helm had dropped down almost seiweless, and that another of the crew was so ill that he could scarcely speak. The Csidain, on receiving this information, grew very pale,aud seemed at a loss what to reply. At last, he started from his chair, and hurried up the gang way. Our mirth ceased in a moment, 'hough none of usappearetl to know whys but the minds of all were evidently occupied by what they had jug , heard, and Major L-- remarked, a ith a Wilier int; voice, that Dedillell were very liable to be tuken niddeuly ill iii hot (Amery. Aftrra little time, we sent the servant to ircpoire what was going forward upon deck. He returned immediately, and infinmed us that the taro sailors were wur.e, aud that r third had just been attacked in the seine wry. He had scarcely said these words, when Mrs. L--gars a shriek, and crird out that her sister. had fainted sway. This added to our confusion and alarm ; and the Major awl Mr. () trembled so much that they were hardly able to cutlery the young Lady to her state room. All conveisatirin was now ut au end, and no one uttered a word until Mrs. L returned from her sister's apartment. While we were imploring how the latter was, tise•Cuptisin entered the c!ahiii in u state of grearegitatioa, " This is a dreadful hosi- Iltb14" said he. " The faet is—it is sty duty to tell you—l fear we are all poisoned by the halt we have ate : one of the crew died s few minutes since, and five adhere are dangerrmaly .66 Poisoned! my Crud !Do you sly so?

" What is to be done ?" cried the Major thetructeilly ; "are there no means of corm teractioy,ji ?"—'6 None that I' know of," returned the Captain. 6' All remedies arevain.

Mrs. snow regained her senses, sad I ea. - - -••- • 7 74' ti . --,~+' ~'-^~:R' ' . . . deatonred Alas her '4latiarri by ream king, that we might possibly (rape the fatal influence of the poison, as some constitutions were. not so easily affected by it as others. "Is there then a tittle hope ?" she 'estelitioned. "Oh ! God, pent it niuy be so ! Haw dreadful to die in the midst of the ocean, far from friends and home, and then to be thrown into the deep.—" There is one thing," said the Captain. faintly, " I we. go i ng to tell you, that—but this sensation—l mean • remedy."--" Speak on," cried the Major, its breathless suspense. "It may have a chance of saving you," continued the former ; " you must immediately"—He gave u deep sigh, sod dropped his head upon his shoulder, apparently unable to utter a word more. " Oh, this is the w•witt of all !" cried Mrs. L--- in "gritty; "hr was on the point of telling us how to counteract the effects of the poison—. Was it heavenly mercy that deprived him of the power of speech ? Can it be called mere r' " Flush, bush ! you rave b " returned her husband. •I We here only to be resigned aora—Let us at least die together." The crew bad dined about en hour and a half before us, and consequently felt the effects of toe poison much curlier that we did. Every our, hoer. ever, now began to exhibit alarming symptom'. Mr. became delirious; the Major lay upon the cabin floor in a state of torpidity; and the Captain had drowned all sense and recollection by drinking a large quantity of brssitly. Mrs. L-- watched her husband and her sister alternately; is a state of quiet despair. I was comp instively but little affected, and therefore employed myself in assisting others until they seemed to be past all relief, and then sat down, anticipatitig the horrid comequences which would result from the death of the whole ship's company. While lilU9 occupied. I heard the steersmen call ont, " Taken ell aback here." A voice, which I knew to be the mate's, immediately answered, " Well, and what's that to its ? Put her before the wind, and let her go where she pleases." I soon perceived, by the rushing of the writer, that there was a great iocresse in the velocity of the ship's progress, and went upon deck to ascertain the cause. I found the mere stretched upon the top of the companion, and addressed him, but he made no reply. The man at tile helm wile tying a rope round the tiller, am, told me he had become ►o bliud and dizzy, that he could neither steer, nor see the compass, and would therefore tie the rudder in such a mariner as would keep the ship's broil as near the wind as Possible. On going forward to the bows, tfouird the crew lying inotionleu in every direction. They were insensible of the dangerous situation in which our vessel was, or totally indif ferent to it ; and all uty representations on this herd failed to draw 'forth an intelligible remark from any of then). Our ship carried a greet deal of canvass, the lower studding sails being up, for we had enjoyed a gentle breeze directly e-stern, be. fore the wind headed us in the way already men tioned. About an hour after sunset almost every person On board seemed to have become worse. I alone ►etained my senses unimpaired. The wind now blew very fresh, and we went through the water at the rate of ten miles an hoar. The night looked dreary and turbulent. The sky was covered with large fleeces sit broken clouds, ■nd the soars noshed angrily through them, as they were wildly hurried slung by the blast. The sea began to run high, and the masts sliewed, by their inc,issain creaking, that they carried snore sail than they could well sustain. 1 stood alone veer the stern of the ship. Nothing Could helicon' above or below deck, but the dashing of the surges, and the soon gs of the wind. All the people on boar,' were to me the slime as dead ; and I was tossed about, ite the vast expanse of waters, without a conipanitan or fellow-sufferer. 1 Lime nut what might be lily rate, or "there 1 shouid be carried. The ves.el, as it careered along the raging• derp, uncontrolled by Iminin hoods, seemed under the guidancgOstrelentleas demon, to whose caprice its ill-fate swim bad been mys teriously conaigned by sonic superior power. 1 was filled with dread lest se alitruld strike upon rocks, or run ashore and often imagined that the clonolo which bestirred the horizon were the black cliffs of some desolate coast. At last, I distinctly. SAW u light at some distance-1s anticipated instant dm:tub:loon—l grew irresolute whether to remain upon deck, and face death, or wait for it below. I soon discovered a ship a little way a-head-1 instinc tively rim to the lobo, and loosed the rope that tied the tiller, which at once bounded hick and knocked me mer. A horrible crashing mid loud cries now broke upon my ear, and I saw that we bad got en tangled with another vowel. But the velocity with which we swept along rendered our extrication in. slantimeows; and, on looking back, 1 saw a ship, without • bowsprit, potchiog iriegolarly among the waves, and heard the rattling of cordage, and a tumult of voices. But, after a little time, soothing was distinguishable by the rte or by the ear. My situation appeared doubly horrible when 1 retlrcted that I had just bred within call of human ctestures, who might have saved and assisted all on board, had not sit evil destiny hurtled us along. sod made its the means of injoirolg thuse who alone were ca pable or •ffordi:ig us ridged*. • About midnight, our fore-top -must gave wsy, and fell upon deck with a tremendous noise...- The ship immediately swung round, and began to labour in a terrible manner, while several waves broke over her sticeestively. 1 hod just resolved to descend the gang-way for shelter, when a white figure rushed past me with a wild sksiek, and sprung overboard. I saw it struggling among the hollows, and tossing about its aims distractedly, but had on means of uffordisig it any as.istance, I witched it for some time, mud observed its consul. sire motions gradually glow more feeble; but its form soon became undiatioigutahuble amidst the foam of the heisting eaves.

The sea beat against the vessel with a none like that of artillery, end the crashing of the buL work., driven in by its Violence, gave startling proof the danger that threatened as. Having bob vend times been dashed against the cabin walls by the violent pitching of the ship. I groped for my bed, and lay down in it, and. notwithstanding tb. horrors that surrounded use, gradually dropped uleep.

The ship rolled v i o l en tl y at isim. terval., but the noise of whirls and waves had alto. get her ceased. I got up hastily and almost dreaded to look round, lest I should find my worst antic**. toots concerning my companions too fatally in. sliced. I immediately discovered the Captain lying eft eire side of the cabin quite dead. Opposite hie. was Major stretched along the floor, grasping firmly the handle of the door of his wife apartment. He had, I suppose, in a moment agony, wished to take farewell of the partner of heart. but had been unable to get beyond the where he now lay.

I could not di.cover Mr. D any where, and therefore concluded that be was the person who had leaped overboard the preceding night. On going upon deck, I 'found that every thing wore • new i•tpeet.
