[From a New York Paper.]
Captain Archibald Hall, in this State, called on ns on
Monday last, and gave us an account of his recent suffer-
ings by shipwreck, from which we have prepared the -fol-
lowing statement:—
Captain flail sailed from Bolton on the 22e1 of September, ;a
the sloop Sally, of St. George, bound to Machias. His crew con-
sisted of two young lads, seventeen or eighteen years old ; and
had on board two female passengers belonging to Machias. After
leaving Boston they soon experienced very rough and boisteroua
weather, and, after being out twenty-six days, while ecadding
under bare poles in a violent gale, they lost both the.; mast aril
rudder, front which time they drifted at the mercy or the winds
and waves twenty-one days longer, before they were taken tram off
the wink.
In a few days they found their store of provisions reduced :u
nine biscuits. Upon this morsel fire persons lived so spoon& so
to make it last fourteen days. At last the bispuit failed, are no
help appeared. Their only sustenance now was two or three Pa's,
which they were so fortunate as to obtain by means of a cat. which
1-they had on board; end finally they feassed their famiebed bodies
oa the eat herself These means of sustenance finally failed them,
Med still there was no prospect of relief. They had hitherto teen
obliged to keep one hand at the pump most of the time, to parer t
the vessel front sinking: but they had now becomel,l weak as to
be. scarcely able to walk. Three days longer they rurrived without
the least sustenance, save what they obtained from an old beet'
bone, which they boiled over five times, and drank the licior.
which became slightly nntritive, by means of the marrow and fat of
the bone.
Two days before they were relieved a brig hove in
their dying hearts revived within them, and their hall-glawd eyes
beamed with hope. The brig drew near—she was net wire than
half a mile distant—she hauled to the wind, threw back her top-
sails, and appeared to be watching the wreck. With longing eyes
the dying sufferers waited to see the boat lowered into water,
But whilst they watched, behold the brig filled her sail!, kept n
her course, and was out of sight. Hunger had now dtrenstiens
to the last resource, one must perish to preserve the lives of the
others a little longer. Who that onl should be tfv.y totem*
agreed to determine the next day at twelve o'clock, if Pravalaeoa
should not sooner interpose in their behalf. ]gut they were not
left to this sad extremity. About three o'clock in the afternoon,
the brig Daniel, Captain Lawton, of Dattmouth (Ehirlatel), ap.
peered in sight—came to their relief, took them front the wreck,
and carried them to St. John's, Newfoundland, where they Went
treated with the greatest possible kindness by the etd;:eno
of St. John's, as well as by Laptain Iwwtota They weep
famished with an abundance of clothing and money; tied atter
their strength was sufficiently teetered; they took pee** foe
their homes in this date, where they have eakly
Argue.
