from Captain Shaw, Of the Schooner
Thorn, which arrived at Boston nm
Sunday, from st Isabella, Spanish
Main, that while lying there, a boat
was deserted floating among the Reefs
On boarding her there were found Iour
Indians. three Of whom were dead; the
other nearly so! The survivor stated
that they were at work on board of a
brig on the Indian Coast, near Rio de la
Hache, and that being intoxicated trey
had thrown the Captain, mate and crew

the boat. Eight muskets, several blum.

NEWSPAPER BORROWERS.

We have heard hundreds Of COM
plants from our subscribers, respect
ing their troublesome neighbors; but
have never been able 10 hit upon a
plan to remove the cause Of the evil
which is nothing more nor less IN nine
cases out Of ten, than the sin Of covet-
business. There are thousands Of perss
sons possessed of houses and lands and
much goods who are so poor in spirit,
that they depend on their neighbors,
who are in moderate circumstances, TO
furnish them with newspapers. We
have even had some Of our subscribers
discontinue their papers for time,
because they could not obtain them
until dozen neighbors had read them;
and in many cases the subscriber suf-
fers total loss.
A subscriber who has been very much
harrassed and vexed by newspaper
borrowers has sent us the following
note, which shows that he is resolved
to afford his neighbors still greater ac-
commodations.
"Mr. Barber-Please send me until
further orders, six papers weekly, so
that may be able to serve FIVE Of my
rich neighbors at once, and have one
paper for myself and family.

A TITLED TRAVELLER.

The following reference to the dis
tinguished Italian nobleman who is
now engaged in travelling through the
country, is given in the Portland Ad-
vertis err
Count VIDUA, whose name we have
mentioned, is an intelligent Italian ira
weller, who having visited every other
quarter of the globe-who having pc
netra,ed into the heart OF Africa, and
along the coasts Of Asia, is filling up
the measure Of his information and GU
rlosity, by exploring the wonders and
resources Of the new world His in
quiries in every part of the country are
extremely minute and ingenious, and
by preserving minutes Of all valuable
facts, he has accumulated vast body
of materials, which may hereafter ex-
tend in the old world knowledge of
the situation, character and institutions
of our part Of the globe. His intended
route is to Quebec, through the Lakes,
across 10 the Ohio river, to New Or
leans, and through the Western States
to Washington He is remarkably well
qualified for accurate and useful obser-
walton, by a previous, and for foreign
er, wonderfully minute knowledge Of
cur political and civil history. We
wish him successful accomplishment
of his interesting undertaking.

HORRID SUICIDE!!i

Mr.. E. l.. WELLS, by profession a
clock and watch maker, put an end to
his existence last evening, between the
hours of and o'clock, by cutting his
throat with razor, as found by the in
QUESTION taken about 9 last night, at
the Raleigh Tavern, where the horrid
deed was perpetrated. Mr.. Wells, as
appears from some papers found in his
possession, emigraled from Quebec,
the capital of Lower Canada, to the
United States, some time during the
present year, and came to this place
last April, or May. He was gentle
man Of Industrious and steady habits,
and believed to be an adept in his call
ing; his mind was vigorous and intel.
ligent, his department correct, and by
the affability and politeness of his man
ners, he had conciliated the affection of
all who knew him.

Boston, Oct. "a most remarkable
change has taken place in the atmos-
phere since yesterday. The mercury
| in the thermometer stood at 81 yester-
day at two O'Clock; the wind at mid
nigh, changed to the northeast, and
the mercury at half past one to day
stood at 81. Accompanying the cold
east wind came large cloud Of smoke
which has given peculiarly brassy
hue to external objects. tits extreme
ly pene,rative, and affects the nostrils
and eyes, producing very sensible
smart and slight inflammation; ii is
quite difficult of respiration, especially
in confined apartments The smoke
is supposed to have had its origin in
the extensive fires in the woods of the
state of Maine, and collecting in agreat
mass, as is not unusually the case, 1t
has at length, having been kept back by
the south west winds, extended itself to
this city, and will probably proceed to
the south west, until it becomes dissi-

FIRE.
Ne,c York, Oct. ll.--A fire broke out
about six o'clock last evening, in the
large four story fire proof store No. As
Front street, occupied by Messrs.
Wardell, Van Beuren & Co. grocers,
which was destroyed, with most of the
property it contained. The fire was
said to have originated from the fall
ling Of a pipe Of brandy out of the
sling from a considerable height in the
scuttlc to the floor, where it burst and
communicated to candle, which in
stantly set the whole in flames. The
store contained a great quantity Of
spir:tuous liquors, the whole Of which
to the upper stories were soon in a
blaze-and by the time the engines ar
rived, the fire was bursting out in
large body from the roof. The store Of
Messrs. NJ. * l, Brett, No. At was con-
siderably injured.
We were unable to ascertain the a.
mount Of Messrs. Wardell, Van Beu-
rem * Co.'S stock thus destroyed-it
was variously estimated atfrom $4,000
to 5000 dollars.
