SOUTH AMERICAN MAILS.

SOUTHAMPTON, MONDAY EVENING.

The royal Brazilian mail-packet Tay, Captain
Sawyer, Admiralty agent, Lieut. Hay, R.N., ar-
rived this evening with the South American mails.
Her dates are—Buenos Ayres, Ist Sept. ; Monte
Video, sth ; Rio de Janeiro, 14th ; Bahia, 18th ;
Pernambuco, 20th ; St. Vincent, 27th ; Teneriffe,
Ist Oct.; Madeira, 2d ; Lisbon, sth.
The Tay brings 83 passengers, among whom are
the Rev. Mr. Biuney and lady, and eleven invalids
from ships of war, &c.
The Tay. also brings home the captain and part
of the crew of the barque Enterprise, which ship
they were forced to abandon in lat. 45.35 S. long.
44.30 W. It appears that in a heavy gale the
main piece to which the rudder was attached broke,
and the water commenced rushing in to the ship so
rapidly that neither by pumping nor baling could
she be kept afloat. After almost unparalleled suf-
ferings during fourteen days, in the worst of wea-
ther, with scarcely any water or provisions, Cap-
tain Gardner and the remnant of his crew (six
having died in the boat) were picked up by the
barque Oriente, in lat. 29.30 S., long. 50 W., and
ultimately transferred to an American ship bound
to Monte Video, at which place they arrived on
the 25th August. To add to the misery of bad
weather in an open boat, and whilst on the verge
of starvation, the captain's wife gave birth to a
daughter. Both the lady and the child at the pre-
sent time are in good health.
The movements of her Majesty's ships are—At
Rio : Indefatigable, Spy, and Trident ; Bahia :
Rifleman, and Express (expected) ; Teneriffe :
Bloodhound ; Lisbon : Neptune and St. George.
The movements of the West India steam-packets
are—Camilla at Rio; Avon left St. Vincent out-
wards on the 23d Sept.
Ships observed or spoken with during the
voyage : Union, transport-steamer, No. 166, be-
tween Lisbon and Cape Finesterre.
