The Jamaica Papers contain the following m
lancholy narrative :
KINUSTON. JAN. S.—By the brig Prince Regent,
front the Havannah, we ascertain that Mr. Fisher, who
had lett the brig Margaret (on her passage front Per.
Royal to the 1H h and St. John'at New BMW
wick), with three men in a boat, with ihe intention of
going ashore at the Caymanas to procure a light, baring
been without one for many days, and who *ere supposed
by the Captain of the brig Margaret to have perished,
as reported by him on his being compels! to put into
Black River, had reached the Ilavannah almost ex-
hausted by the fatigues and hardships he had under-
gone since he left the vessel. Two of the seamen had
died at different periods. It *prays' that after leaving
the brig they &acceded in landing upon the Little Cay-
manes, but could not find any person near iihere they
landed. Upon their return to the boat they were en
able to perceive their own vessel, and endeavoured to
reach another, inn without success. By this time they
were at a long distance from the land, and it began to
blew very hard, which drifted them considerably to lee-
ward of the place they hail started from, when they de-
termined to make for the coast of Cuba. On reaching
the shore, the surf was so great that the boat was dashed
to pieces, and one titan drowned. After 'rendering
shout for fire days, witliont perceiving a living creature,
and without nay thing to satisfy their hunger but ber-
ries from the hushes, another of them died. Forte-
nately, on the fifth day, they met a Spaniard,who agreed
to conduct them to the alarming), a distance of 120
miles, for the sum of 100 dollars. Mr. Fisher alone pro-
ceeded, and arrived in that city in a most deplorable
-rate, being all but dead. The on surviving seaman,
a black man, was so completely exhausted; as to be un-
able to follow, and nu doubt, afterwards perished."

EXTRAORDINARY INATANCE OP RESOLUTION IN •N
INDIAN WON AN.-Ithen Ily,ler Ali invaded thilting-
dom of Calicut, an Indian widow, about the age of 30,
braved in person all his efforts, She had upon her
estate, near the confines of Camara, a miserable fort,
called Bailers!, into whirh she went, and took with her
twelve bandied lomeemen, her subjects and labourers,
who determined to p(rish by her side. They sustained
two violent assaults, and each time rushing into the
midst of the enemies' troops, repulsed them with Con-
siderable lose. An incnrsion from the Mahrattas at last
gar, Nyder Alt an opportunity to abandon the.siege.
Her gratitude was as eminent as her etiarage. A young
gentleman of the name of Browne was, as a freekader,
nrgoehting for the purchase of souse goods Mr thr
European market : he went with her into the fort, and
assisted in the defence. After the siege had been aban-
doned, she made presents of so much value as satisfied
his wishes. He returned to his native country, where
he long lived, enjoying a fortune acquired by his virtue
and spirit.
CELtBRATIDORZYNOUND.-011Wedseadaylast,wItilst
gallantly coursing a hare on the High Wolds, about
~
orr seven miles from Scarborou h, Mr. Tindall's celebrated
greyhound Sancho, drop down dead, in consequence
of as. rupture of a 111 -vessel. Althouirh he bad run
for seven successive seasons, his speed, vigour, and re-
solution remained unimpaired ; and he was considered
by the best judges to have possessed a rare combination
of those excellent qualities which constitute superiority
in the greyhound. He died and lies interred on the
theatre of his former victories, the same ground where
he won the Flixton Cup, given by W. I. Denison, Esq.
in 1814, beating 15 greyhounds. He was got by Mr.
Tindall's black dog, Jest (son of Mr. Langlefs
Mateh'rm), out of Major Topham's yellow and white
bitch, Fly, winner of the Cup at Mahon, in 1810, and
daughter of %Ir. Best's famous Snowdrop, the last son of
Ohl Snowball.

A Paris Paper states, that Mr. James Rothschild est
with an accident, while driving his cabriolet is the
Champs Elyse's, by his horse having taken fright, is
consegitence of which the vehicle was dashed against a
post awl broken, while Mr. R. also came in contact with
it, but the injury he received vial not of a serious
nature.

Yesterday, as Mr. Dare, of Ilford, was passing
thromgh Whitechapel, near Osburn-street, about eight
o'clock, in a rhaise-cart, his horse took fright at the
rolling of a sarao•hophead, with some broken staves
in it, and ran with such force against a post as to upset
the vehicle, by which accident Mr. Dare had his collar.
bone broken.

Svtcor I.—Saturday evening, a young woman, servant
of all work in a gentleman's faintly, in Coleman-street,
having some dispute with the cook, on which seesaw
she was threatened to be discharged, went and hung
herself from the bannisters of the stairs, in which sites-
tion she was folnd shortly after by one of the men me-
vents, who cut her down. A aurgeon was seat for, who
bled her ; she showed some signs of life for a time, but
it was only of a short duration, for, in spite of all medi-
cal assistance, she expire'.
