The subjoined additional details, dated Demerara,
August 8, have been received respecting the lees by Are of
the above vessel :—" Bhe was cleared at the custom-house on
the 27th ult., and was to have tailed the next twain;
but shortly before midnight the fore part of the ship was die-
covered to be on Are. Captain Id'Beath immediately called
up all hands and caused the ahip's Are-engine to play upon
the parts from which the smoke was issuing. At the same
thne he sent on beard the Elleeborough, which was lying
near, for assistance. Captain Woodcock promptly responded
to the call, and cams with two boats' crews end a Bre.engine
to their assietance. In the meantime the alarm of fire had
wed moue the shipping, and the captains of the Thames,
CamiLlas, and ethers were speedily on board with
their respective crews. and rendered valuable assistance.
The most strenuous efforts were made to subdue the Ars,
but without success. While they were thus en
Captain ld'heath ordered the chains to be
ready for slipping the cables at a moment's notice, In the
event of Its being found necessary to do so, When the
harbour master came on heard, and found that it wee
im-
possible to put out the Are, welch was &weeding rapidly
below, he ordered the ship to be taken up the river, in order
that she might he run aground at some sate place, clear of
the shipping. The cable. were clipped, and sail made on
the ship forward, and she was got over to the west side of
the river, and run aground in front of Canal No. I. The
'aorta to put out the Are were continued during the whole
time, but it was now quite evident that nothing could save
the ship ; and as the heat was becoming intolerable she was
abandoned, and in a dew minutes afterwards the Are burst
forth from the fore and main hatcher., and enveloped the
rigging in a sheet of Game. The captain managed to save
the ship's papers, bat he boat the greater portion of his
clothes and other property he had on board. The crew ex-
hibited great alacrity in rescuing their own things, but it is
reported they did not exert themselves to put out the Are to
the same praiseworthy manner as the sailors from the other
ships who came to their assistance. This extraordinary
apathy on the part of the crew of the ship, combined with
miter circumstances, has given Tim to a suspicion that the
Are was not altogether accidental. Three of the men were
token up on suspicion, bat afterwards liberated. The origin
of the Are remains to this moment a mystery. The ship con-
tinued burning doting the whole of Thursday, nod having
ea board 660 bide. of Nurse, and 357 puneheima of rum, it
easy naturally be supposed that the Are raged with consider-
able fury. Oa Friday morning the wreck having become
much lightened, Boated orli the bank at high water, and at
the ebb of the tide the utmost consternation was created
la the harbour by the alarm that the burning ship was
stoat, and was coming down emonget the shipping.
Fortunately, the burning mw floated down through the
midst of the shipping without doing any damage. It was
thee taken in tow by the Rattlesnake, ateamer, said moored
amide of Kingston Stalling. The rum wee ell destroyed,
but • retie@ of the sugar has been saved in a very damaged
state.'
