The Accident to the Ship Sebastian Cabot.

An inquiry, ordered by the Board of Trade, into
the circumstances attending the accident to this ves-
sel, was opened before Mr. Raffles, the stipendiary
magistrate, and Captains Harris and Baker, nauti-
cal assessors, at the Liverpool Police-court, on Tues-
day. The Sebastian Cabot was a fine vessel of 893
tons register, built at Workington, in 1854, and
classed A lat Lloyds for 14 years. She left the
East India Docks, London, on the 24th of Septem-
ber, for a voyage to Bombay, under the command
of Mr. Joseph Hopkinson, and with a crew of 24
men and four apprentices, together with 1100 tons
of general cargo. Everything went well until the
7th of October, although very severe weather was
paratus
encountered. On this day the mate was lett in al-
most exclusive charge of the ship, although the
I starboard well chain, stanchion, and the steering ap-
vvere broken. The master remained in his
cabin, and when told of the accident coolly re-
, about 34
"'lurked, " Well, all we can do is to put into the
nearest port," and did not bestir himself in a man-
ner which the occasion demanded. The ship was
tried to make Falmouth, but was compelled to stand
miles west of the Scilly Isles, and the mato
to sea, owing to the adverse state of the weather.
The vessel sprang a leak soon after this, and signals
of distress were exhibited. A vessel, called the
Archipelago, took the Sebastian Cabot in tow, but
did more harm than good, and her captain, it is
said, endeavoured to incite the crew of the Sebastian
Cabot to mutiny and desertion. During the 14th,
15th, and 16tli, the vessel drifted towards thelrish
coast, and, on the 17th, the mate endeavoured to
land, but could not do so; and ho and his boat's
crew were picked up by a German barque, and
taken to Waterford. Ultimately
the
Cabot was picked up by h Limerick steamer, and
