Senewarcx.—The schooner Eleanor, of Nassau, New Providence,
was on a voyage from Nue:ilia' bound to Banco*, with a number
of passengers on board, when, in the night of the 234 of May, she
suddenly struck upon site of a cluster of small Keys called the Bro-
thers, within about twelve miles of Ragged Island. The Eleanor,
after striking, drifted off for some distance, when she sunk in deep
water, and sixteen of the passengers instantly perished. Five per-
sons, however, among whom were Mr. John Armbrister, jun. and
a young man f the name of Zanicle, were fortunate enough to reach
one of the Keys, where they remained in great distress for twelve
or fourteen days, when Zanicle determined to endeavour to get to
Ragged Island, and accordingly pushed off astride of a log of wood
which he picked up, and paddled himself to that island, where he
landed, very much exhausted from famine and fatigue, and related
the state in which he had left the survivors on the Key. A vessel
was dispatched front Ragged Island in search of those on the Key ;
but when they arrived there, they could find no one ; but saw a
grave where one person had been buried, which Zanicle supposed
to have been a sick Spaniard whom he had left there. It appeared
afterwards, from the information of Mr. John Armbrister, jun. who
was one of those left on the small Key when Mr. Zanicle quitted
it on the log of wood which drifted him to Ragged Island, that
himself and two Spaniards, after remaining seventeen days on the
small desert Erb were providentially relieved by the Spanish brig
Juan Maria alias Leon. Carlos Ribera master, from Malaga, bound
to Havannah, at which last port Mr. Armbrister was landed, after
experiencing the greatest kindness and the most humane attention.
The Eleanor was chartered by the Governor of 13aracoa, Don Louis
Arua, to go to Nuevitas for his niece, who had lately lost her hus-
band there, and sailed accordingly with four children ' • but meeting
with bad weather, was, at her own desire, landed again with two
of her children, the other two, together with Don Louis, were
drowned when the Deasor sunk.
