MELANCHOLY FATALITY AT SEA.—LIVERPOOL,
TUDIDAY. —By the arrival at this port of the ship Morning
Star, from City Point, Virginia, we are placed in possession
of a few facia relating to a sad and painful occurrence
which took place on the 22nd March. Captain Arthur
Campbell, of the Morning Star, thus details the event :
"On the 22nd March, at 7 a.m., when steering east by
south of Cape Henry (east coast of North America), I fell in
with a schooner in a sinking condition, and ultimately came
up with her, but unfortunately could render no immediate
amistance, as the wind was blowing a perfect hurricane at
the time. I, however, ran et close as safety would permit to
the schooner, and attempted to save the crew. but failed.
I again made a second attempt, and while doing so the
schooner went down stem foremost, with all hands on
board, within two cables' length of my ship. I then tan
the Morning Star close to where the vessel went down, in
order to more easily pick up any of the crew who might
some to the surface' in this last act I was to be disap-
pointed, aa after the schooner went down there was not a
trace left behind to show that such a sad and deplorable
event had occurred but a few minutes before. I read the
name of the schooner on her stern, but in the excitement
and confusion at the time I forget it.

Is purchased, and that a tendency to pref. r a cokuirless sod
