! FROM INDIA.
| The ship juno has arrived below from
| Calcutta, whence she sailed on the 18th
August last. We are indebted to Capt.
Doak, and the passengers for the follow
ing intelligence -
The ship MarceIlus, Aborn, Of Boston,
from Holland, was stranded on Sugar
Island on the 18th Of May, owing 10 the
liucompetency and intemperance Of the
pilot. Capt. Aborn, after going to Cal
Ecutta, returned to the ship with the con-
Isignee and the gentlemen appointed to
survty her. II being determined that
the ship world not be worth the expense
of an attempt to get her off, Capt. Aborn
remained 10 strip her and ship the ma.
iteriaIs to town by brig which had been
procured for the purpose. The specie
land cargo had been previously carried TO
town. Before the shipment was complete
led, the violence Of the wind obliged the
fbrig TO run up with the Sd officer, and
lpart Of the crew, leaving Capt. Aborn, his
lst and I'd officers and 5 men on the ISL
Land. II was some days before they had
an opportunity to get to town, and num-
Der Of them had then the symptoms Of the
Jungle fever, Of which captain Aborn died
90 the 2lst OF June; Mr.. Lyman, lst
officer, on the LIST Of July; William Edge
comb, OF Marblehead, seamen, on the 10th
Of June Albert Benson, seaman, on the
23d OF June, and Robert Flood, steward,
on the 25th July. Mr.. Ropes and one Of
1.-THE gentlemen Of the survey, and others
of the crew Of the Marcellus, were taken
with the same fever soon after their re-.
turn from The ship aud remsiDed dagger.
onsIy III for some time, but eventually re-
covered. The hull and materials Of the
Marcellus had been sold al auction. Mr..
Gerry, I'd officer, and Of the crew, have
returned in The Juno. The pilot. who lost
the MarcellDs had been tried by a court
of inquiry and dismissed from the compa-
jny's service-His name is Rutter.
TWAS very sickly 10 Calcutta: all the
crew of the barque Patriot, of Salem,
4 we're sick before the Juno sailed-and
some of the crew of the Juno were left
sick.
I The Rev. Mr.. Jndson, one of the A.
merican Missionaries, with his family,
arrived in Calcutta about the 18th Aug.
from Rungoon, which place he was obiig-
led to leave on account of war being a.
bout to take place between the king Of
Pegu and the Siamese.
| The u. S. frigate Congress had been
Expected at Calcutta with treasure from
Manila, in consequence of advices from
the latter place. The last advices from
her stated that she was refitting at Pulo-
Oar, and was expected to return to Cam
ltOn.
The loss Of vessels and property has
been greater in the Bay of Bengal 10 May,
June and July last, than ever was known
before, the most part were country and
British ships; we learn of no American
vessels. A violent gale was experienced
by several vessels, which returned with
great loss, that sailed in company with the
Ebrig Otter, OF Boston, from Calcutta.
i On the l4th Nov. the Juno hove too
about two miles to windward Of ST. Hele-
ma, and 10 abou! 20 minutes after was
boarded by boat from the flag ship Vigo,
III, Rear Admiral Lambert, and very
politely treated. The ship was permitted
TO approach the roads by signal from
| the flag ship, and 10 half an hour the vi
COS boats came alongside with water from
the shore, and supplied it free Of expence.
II being late in the day, and the ship a
considerable distance from the land could
not procure any vegetables or refresh
ments from the shore, aud which were
rather scarce--was informed that two
American ships passed the island the
proceeding day, supposed TO be the Clay,
OF Boston, and the Caroline, Of Salem.
Capt. Doak was informed by the officers
Foi the Vigo, that the Emperor Napoleon
was in perfect health, that he received no
company bnt kept himself entirely se-
Guided, even from the governor. The
new Palace at Longwood was SO far coM-
pleted as TO enable the Emperor TO live in
il. II is said to be magnificent building
and be usefuIly situated.
/ Gen. Bertrand and his lady still remain
with BoDaparte. The Russian and Aus
trian commissioners left ST. Helena some

but French nobleman. Bonaparte has
not consented TO see single person since
Lord Amherst was admitted 10 an audi

A lady Of some rank, lately returning
from India had endeavored TO get intro.
