that they saw the u. States brig Syren.
Lying in Table Bay, Cape of Good Hope,
and that she was captured by the Med
way "A, near the line. They also stated,
that few days previous to her capture,
the Penguin fell in with the private arm
ed brig Macedonian, and chased her "a
hours. The Macedonian fired her two
stern hasers, which passed through the
Penguin's coursers-got clear in fog.
Loss Of the Schr. Adclia.
In our last we mentioned the loss of a
schooner in the Gul phi stream, belonging
to Philadelphia. We have since then
conversed with one of the crew, who was
saved from the wreck. From him we
learn, that it was the schr. Adelia, capt.
Wilson. She sailed from Philadelphia
the 29th of May, bound to st. Domingo,
& on the Cd of June,a sea struck & cap
sized her. The lanyards of both masts
were cut, and they went over the side.
The vessel then righted full of water.--
The crew consisting of seven, dashed
themselves to the bowsprit, to prevent be-
ing washed overheard, as the sea made
fair breach over thenl--They remained
on the wreck ten days, during which they
succeeded in securing barrel of flour, a
barrel ofhams. and a pipe of wine, which
doated OFT Of the hatchway. While on
the wreck, saw five sail, and made sig
mails of distress, which were not observed
by them-On the 18th of June, discover
ed sail standing directly for US, which
proved to be the Spanish brig Amelia, in
z days from Salem bound to Havana.
She took all the crew of the wreck.-A
few days afterwards, we fell in with the
brig Aconda. captain Stocking, in Is days
from Middletown, bound to Mantanzies.
On board her we put Mr.. White mate of
the Adelia, and three seamen, viz. John
Crowell, Cornelius Swanson and Amos
Tufts, Of Medford, (Mass.)-While on
board the Aconda, We fell in with the
brig Comet, captain Blen; from Marti-
nique bound to n. York, who took Mr..
White and Mr.. Tufts on board, and ar
rived here last Monday. The captain of
the Adelia, and the remainder of the crew
were on board the Spanish brig.
