THE WRECK OF THE COLUMBUS.
) ) 1
The following has been communicated to us by alias-
senger in the Euphrates, recently arrived from India.
Our correspondent states that the wreck alluded to was
generally considered by those on board the Euphrates to be
iI) part of the large timber ship Columbus:—
About the forenoon of the 25th of September, an alarm of a
*rock was given, and it became general throughout the ship. Some
• , ti
•
as
. serted that there were twenty men on it, others ten ; indeed so it
firs did appear. The t feeling of every man on board was to save
than lives. We were at the came under a very heavy press of sail,
gorr.g about seven knots, with a heavy sea. With great difficulty
we gm in sail and backed the maintopsail and brought her up.
From the extreme helm sea, we bad great difficulty,. in getting the
boat down, when she sensed officer and four sailors Jumped into it,
at the risk of thelplives. We were at the time about a quarter of a
iwile trout the wreck.; it was then rolling ate tremendous rate, and
, looked truly awful. The officer in the boat dared not appioach
very near. hot was able to see that it was an enormous mass of
timber bolted through, with two steles; one on one side, and live
or am large timbers socking upne lit. lam happy to say there
f were no men on tt. The officers in the beat say it was about Nor
t
50 feet long and 60 broad, but I think mach larger. We fell in
with at about three of four hundred milasfrom the land, in the ex. ,
11•.: track of the boamward.bound ships front the East and West
i .• ladies ; and should any ship go on board of het, I would not give
Muth for the vessel afterwards. There is no knowing what injury
ibis floatreference machine may do. By a referen to Captain Meade,
cominaciding the Euphrates, her exact situation may be known, and
steps should be adopted to destroy or bring her home : she would
well pay fur the undertaking.

In the evening of Siturday se'nnight a man, dressed as
a sailor, with red trousers, decoyed two little boys (the
eldest about six years old) with the promise of money
sad gingerbread, from the Quay, Bristol, to the field on
Kinesdown, leading from Cotham-lodge to Redland-
i court, where he stripped them of their clothes, and left
them entirely naked. Shame at their nakedness prevented
tie poor little fellows from leaving the spot, though at no
great distance from Mr. Creed's tunipike and milk-house ;
and the eldest covered his companion and himself for the
night with the waste fodder he could feel around them,
snider a hedge. There they were discovered on the
ii Sunday morning by the dairy woman who attended the
.9 ' cows in that field, and testored to their parents.—Both

&NUL t•R ROBIERY.-081 Tuesday, Mr. Johnson, a
respectable farmer, of Trowel Moor, was robbed at one of
the principal inns, in this town, under the following cir-
csuestances:—lie was accosted in the street, by a gentle-
man, with " How do you, Sir? You come from Trowel,
dm% you ?" " Yes," waa the reply, " but you have the
• i adtantage of me, for I. don't know you." "Oh," says the
grfrtlerrian, " I know you well, and will be obliged if you
will carry me a letter to a person (whose name was men.
Gourd) at Trowel." Mr. Johnson with pleasure assented.
I
The gentleman then proposed going to an inn to write the
note, where they had not been seated many minutes before
two ethors came in, and the conversation turned on losses
so twist machinery, and general roguery. At length it was
agreed to order four glasses of brandy and water, when the
villains (for such they turned out to be) took the opportu.
, nity to put some narcotic substance Into Mr. Johnson's
`f 4 glass, which, after he had drank, caused him to fall into a
1k - Lupot, from which he could not be roused for scrotal
hours., It was. then discovered that he had been robbed of
I if. in cash.—NottingAam Journal.
CRUELTY TO CRABS AID LOSSTERS.—A considerable
. number of the respectable inhabitants of Bath have sub.
. s.:ribeil arid circulated a hand-bill, addressed to fishernoeu
, and fishmonger, in which they state their opinion that all
+i tiunecessary rain towards the inferior animals reeprehensible
I '
in'a moral view ; and that the very disgraceful practice
common on the coasts, of putting wooden pegs into the
great claws of crabs and lobsters, instead of tying them
/ with string, to prevent their injuring each other, or persons
II i'''.- • employed in handling them, causes great and protracted
suffering ; and, besides the cruelty to the animals, they
arc, as articles of provision, sometimes material/ injured,
tune flesh being inflamed, wasted, watery, am in some
P' cases suppurated, and rendered unpalatable, unwholesome,
and disgusting. Therefore, in order to discourage the
i practice, they declare that they will net in future buy any
• stabs or lobsters in that pegged or tortured state, and that
they will use their influence with others to adopt the same
resehttion. The fishmongers have also published a de-
elation in approbation of the resolution of their customers,
i aqd promising, as
.far as practicable, to deal with those
) • fishermen only who shall tie the claws of their crabs and
letwiers. . .
