MIRACULOUS ESCAi'E OF AN EMIGRANT SHIP WITH
600 SOULS ON BOARD.—The American ship Connecticut,
Mr. Williams commander, which left Liverpool on the
21st of last month for New York, with about six hundred
emigrants on board, has just succeeded in reaching
Falmouth, after a most narrow escape of being overcome
by a succession of frightful gales to the westward of
Cape Clear. Some five or six days after she had left the
Mersey, with every prospect of a rapid voyage across
the Atlantic:, the wind veered round to west-north-west,
and in twelve hours it blew terrifically from that quarter.
It continued for days, the ship labouring severely ; and
there appearing no chance of beating against it, the of-
ficers thought it prudent to put back. This had no
sooner been carried out before a change took place, and
eventually the wind dropped to a calm. In a few hours,
however, as dusk set in, another storm broke forth, if
possible more furious than the one they had previously
encountered, the sea ran tremendously high, and the
ship carried away her main and foretopmast, besides
sustaining other damage. For three days and nights
there was no abatement in its fury, the vessel shipping
heavy seas and rolling in a manner to create tho utmost
dismay among all on board. Attempts were made to
bear up for Cork. In retracing her course she narrowly
escaped destruction by collision. The ship Martha Rae,
in attempting to speak with her, got foul of her, and oc-
casioned considerable mischief. She was unable to
reach Cork. Some pilots succeeded in boarding her off
the Scilly Islands, and a steam-tug subsequently coming
within hail she was employed to take the Connecticut.
in tow, and she was got into Falmouth. The emigrants
seem to have suffered greatly.
HORRIBLE MURDERS ON THE HIGH SEAS.—Asivices
yesterday, by the Brazilian mail-packet, dated Monte
Video, Apia 5, furnish some particulars of the discovery
of horrible murders on board the ship Reindeer, Captain
Wilson master, from Valparaiso, of the captain, first
and second mates, steward, and two passengers, by pail
of the crew, for the purpose of plunder, a large amount
of specie being understood to be in the vessel. A few
weeks prior to the above date some fishermen discovered
the vessel abandoned near Cape Antonio. She was lying
between two b&nks, where she had evidently been run
and scuttled, and then plundered. The fishermen, after
much exertion, managed to get out some of the cargo,
by which they were enabled to get at the scuttle-holes,
and fill them up. When she floated, they got her off,
and making sail, contrived to run her into Monte
Video, where she remains. Previous to her discovery,
a number of her crew, who had landed from an open
boat at Saladin, had been arrested on suspicion of being
concerned in wilfully casting away the ship. They
were conveyed to Buenos Ayres, where two of them
confessed to certain of the crew murdering the whole of
the ship's officers and the passengers who were on
board.
STRASBOURG RAlLWAY.—Advices from the Paris
Bourse mention that the capital of the Strasbourg Rail-
way is likely to be increased to the extent
