MURDER AND PlRACY.—Advices yesterday by the
Brazilian Mail Packet, dated Monte Video, April 5, fur-
nish some particulars of the discovery of horrible murders
on board the ship Reindeer (Captain Wilson, master, from
Valparaiso) of the captain, first and second mates, steward,
and two passengers, by a part of the crew, for the purposes
of plunder, a large amount of specie being understood to be
in the vessel. A few weeks prior to the above date some
fishermen discovered the vessel abandoned near Cape An-
tonio. She was lying between two banks, where she hail
evidently been run and scuttled, and then plundered. The
fishermen, after much exertion, managed to get out some of
the cargo, by which they were enabled to get at the scuttle
holes and fill them up. When she floated they cot her off
the bank, and, making sail, contrived to run her into Monte
Video, where she remains. Previous to her.; discovery, a
number of her crew, who had landed from an open boat at
Saladin, had been arrested on suspicion of being concerned
in wilfully casting away the ship. They were conveyed to
Buenos Ayres, where two of them confined to certain of
the crew murdering the whole of the ship's officers and the
passengers who were on board.
