that French Shaving schooner, while Iy-
ing near Cape Mount, was blown up on
the 23d November, and all Der crew, a.
bou. 20 in number, with len native slave
dealers and several Krowmen lost their
lives. One krowman only escaped, who
stated that the captain, with The slave deaI-
ers, was in the hold with a lantern, and
a candle in it, looking at The quality Of
the cargo. They had been looking at a
barrel of powder, of which she had great
quantity, and left it open, and were exa-
mining the rum, when The Captain drew
som. in a glass, and the natives said it
had water in il; the Captain put his finger
in it, and then held it to The can die, to let
them see that il would burnt being Too
bot to bis finger he shook it of and some
Of il dropped into the powder behind bin,
when the whole exploded.
