'HUMMING NARRATIVIL—TWO natives of the island ,
Owyhee, in the. Pacific Ocean, where Captain Cook lost '
bie-lifeeweee brought before the Lord Mayer. They were 'I
warriors, and the sons of Chiefs of the Sandwich Isles. 0,
Mick names are Bosse Olt /Soo and Tuano, and they are ,•
the first people of those barbarous nations that ever set I
"foot upon English ground. It had been the day before I
represented to his Lordship that the two strangers were
brought to this country uuder circumstances of an entra•
'Misery nature, and that being desolate and without mo-
ney, er a knowledge of the language, or power of making
themselves understood, they would in all provability pe-
rish. if some means were nut taken to send them back to
their native country.
With some difficulty an Interpreter was found. He is
young American, who had been taken prisoner by the
Asatives of Owyhee, where he had gone in & schooner,
called the Seahorse, for the purpose of getting sandal
wood, in which that island abounds.
The following circumstances came nut in the course of
the examination 1 • Sunday lut the clergyman who
officiates on board the floating chapel in the river Thames

Through the medium of an interpreter, it was stated,
that the two warriors had been telling at some distance

American &chooser, which had touched upon the island,

Silt of October, by the direction of Mr. Dyer, the magii••
trate; found her shoulders bruised as if by a blunt instru-
ment; saw marks upon her body, but none of them appeared
of consequence enough to tall for medical applicatlms. The
deceased remained at work in the needle-room until the 14th
November. lie C01161111C.1 the evidence of the midwife,
respecting the woman's delivery of the still-born child, and
that parts of the body, where livid marks had beee, began !
to mortify. She said she hail been much beaten, but did not
say by whom, except that it gas not by the ather of the
child. In his prufe.ainnal opinion, the woman did not die of
violence hut of erysipelas, aggravated perhaps by her lying-
in, which would cause tumfaction and inflammation.
Coates, the constable, knew the poor woman, and beard
of her bei•ig ill-treated. Ou the SOO Oztuber weal to a

body, and she constilsined to him of the floggings she hail
received from Captain D. Witnets went to the place
at the desire of several neighbours„ who had heard cmotant
shrieks.
Several females from the workhouse also gave evidence,
but what they said only amounted to what hail fallen from
the midwife' and to promises made by the deceased to tell
who ill used her when she recovered.
Mr. Creenway was then called is and mislead—
he said that au arrangement of this busiuess bees Ow ws-

known; but nompicions whatever were entertained of any
ill usage, or of her being in any danger.--lie said that the
geatleme had received beadles of letters from the deceased,
acknowledging his repeated kiadoess.
it being half-past one o'clock in the morning, the Jury
suggested an adjournment anti it was determined that the
body of the deceased should be opened and examined by

The Jury accordingly met the following day, when the
body was examined, "ad the Jury returned a verdict of—

Pomo Discovery.—Lieutenant Parry, idle
passing through Laocaster /toned, proceeded westward,
awning dowa the parallel of latitude of 15 deg. until he
arrived at shoot 113 deg. W. ion., which he reached on
t►e 28th of September, 1815, when his farther progress was
stopped by the setting In of winter. He was then compelled
to cut his way through two miles of ice of about two feet in
thickness, when be got safely into a snug harbour of a new
Waal, which he named after the First Lord of the Admi-
ralty, and there took up his winter quarters. In this
situation he remained from the 58th of September
i.ntil the Ist of August, 1820, when the sea broke 0p....
During his stay he saw an other Mamas beings than his
ow■ ship's company, nor any animals besides a few
lean deer. Of these he obtained a few, and these were the
fresh provisions which the ships bad during the whole of
the voyage; they were enabled to grow salad in the ship,
by which means the ship's crew were prevented from en.
perienciag the effects of the scunrey. A singular phases*.
nun was observed relative to the magnet. which held a vo.

128 east, plainly proving that, in the course the ship took,
