RETURN OF AN EMIGRANT SHIP—EXTRAORDINARY
CHAPTER Or ACCIDINTS TO THE PASSENGERS.—The
American Packet ship Isaac Webb, Capt. Webb, belong-
ing to the Black Ball Line of Liverpool and New Yoik
Packets, which sailed from Liverpool on the 7th of
January, was compelled to return to port in a leaky con-
dition, after being knocked about the Atlantic for twenty-
four days. She had 350 passengers, chiefly Irish—and
rarely have passengers been subjected to the same vicis-
situdes as those on board the Isaac Webb—forty-five of
them originally took passage in the James Foster, jun.,
belonging to the same line, which sailed from the Mersey
on the Gth of November last, and having been driven
about for seven weeks - forty-nine days in the Atlantic,
and having lost all the sails, boats, and rudder, had to
rnn back to Queenstown, where she arrived on the 25th
of December. These passengers were then forwarded to
Liverpool, to be taken to New York by the Isaac Webb.
Another body of the passengers had engaged passages
in the ill-fated - Isaac Wright, and were on board when
that vessel was destroyed by fire, in the Mersey. They
were also transhipped to the Isaac Webb, which sailed
t., the number of souls being increased to
3 of a crew, the latter chiefly Americans.

For. the first fortnight the weather was pretty fine, the
sea running high, but on the 23rd ult. the wind rose,

sea washed continually over the decks. Next
day a poor Irish passenger named Flynn, succumbed to
the severity of the weather, which was intensely cold.
'He was sown up in his hammock, and the canvass
filled with coal to cause the body to sink, but it
floated a long time after being thrown overboard. On
the 24th, passed within a hundred yards of the wreck of
a ship. 25th, at eight p.m., a tremendous sea struck the
vessel, stove in the port holes, knocking down the men at
the pumps, and filling the apartments of the male and
female passengers, who were knee-deep in water. The
passengers were now at the pumps continually
.night and
day. On the 26th, at nine a.m., the leak gaining on the
ship, Captain Hutchinson gave orders to put back to
Liverpool, where they arrived on the 31st ult. The poor
creatures, on landing, presented a truly miserable appear-
ance, as, owing to the severe weather, there could be no
cooking on board, and they were almost starved, and were
rite exhausted by the incessant working at the pumps,
ng engaged in that service from the 14th to the 26th ;
1r could any washing be done. They all seemed
rejoiced at their safe return fo Liverpool, and many bore
testimony to the great attention displayed by Captain
Hutchinson' his 'officers, and crew. The following is the
address alluded to :

4,Ship Isaac Webb, Jan. 30th, 1859.
We, the undersigned passengers on board the Isaac
Webb, feel it our duty under God to express our heart-
felt thanks to Captain Hutchinson and his officers, for
their uniform attention to our comfort, under the
distressing circumstances in -which the ship has been
labouring for the last fortnight ; and to the crew, for
their unceasing exertions in endeavouring to save our
lives :

them by the first packet ship, " Harvest Queen," sailing
on the sth inst.
