EIe.er Gazette.
II is stated on the authority OF some OF
the passengers lately arrived from India,
that a sailor belonging to the Vansittart,
Chinaman, who had formerly been on
board the Northumberland, when the latter
vessel conveyed Buonaparie TO 81. Helena,
had mentioned 10 some OF his shipmates,
when the Vansittart was off that Island on
her late homeward voyage, that hebad been
seeing some OF his acquaintance who were
in the service of Buonaparte; that he got on
shore during the night, and proceeded TO
the residence of Napoleon, aud had been
well received aud entertained. He said he
had done so for two successive nights. I'M
mediaiely on this being reported TO the Of
Gcers of the ship. he was seized, searched,
and sent to the Governors where he was
strictly investigated as to the means he had
used, whether he had seen Buonapar.e, or
if he had been entrusted with any letters or
packages. Nothing whatever had trans
PRED and it was believed the whole o.
riginated in the mad irolic OF British
Tar. 1t threw, however, the " hole island
into great agilation-the practcabilIty OF
a person proceeding TO the residence OF
Buonaparte, and returning during the night
being deemed impossible.
