From the Frankfort Commentator, March 81


The Argus, having noticed that certain resolu
tons in favor of Mr.. Clay and Mr.. Sergeant" had
been offered by MIR. Hunt, at public meeting in
Lexington, makes this very pertinent enquiry
''Is this the same Charlton Hunt who was late.
&" " Jackson candidate in Fayette and who
" sworc publicly that he would be id if any
" thing would ever induce him to support Mr.
"Clay"
Ayc-thc same: tho very same Mr.. Hunt, who
was lately JackSon candidate in Faycte, and who,
you san, thus and so; and he is not the only
man, by ten thOumnd, who with as much zeal slatc-
ly," you ascrbc to him, has been constrain-
ed to rcnouncc the cause of Jackson, and support
the National Republican ticket, as the only means
of retrieving the country from inclablc disgrace
and impending ruin. But the Argus attributes the
revolt of Mr.. Hunt to disappointment in not get
ting Office from Gen. Jackson. Mr.. Hunt
holds the highly honorable office of Mayor If Ler.
ngfOn, by the free suiirages of his fellow citizens
and it is not likely that he expected or sought
patrona ge from Gen. Jackson. But will the Argus
can the Argus-inake a computation of the num-
Der of leading JdcksOnans, who would fall off, il
they but satisfied that all hopes of office were
gone? 1t would be curious computation Take
out these, from the party, and what miserable
mass ofbrawn and muscle, mitkout bone or sinctc
would be left, TO constitute the Republican party
The editor ofthc Argus can begin his computation
by considering what would he the effect of dcpriv
ing the present holder of the offices of Deputy
Marshall and publisher the laws of the United
States at Frankfort.

Loss Of the Ship Huntlcy, and dreadful suffering
of the CrPIr.


Of the Crer.
This ship the property of Mcssrs. Cannon &
Miller, of Liverpool; and commanded by capt Han
nah, sailed from st. Andrews, n. b. on the 18th
of Jan. On the 9TH Feb, in lat. - so, lon. 81 0,
nearly 1000 miles from the coast of Ireland, she
struck by heavy sea, which stove in her stern.
The master and crew sought refuge in the tops,
where they remained for two days On the third
day, the weather having moderated, they succeeded
in getting the long boat out. Unfortunately, they
could not procure any provisions, end the master
and crew, sixteen in number, committed themselves
to the mercy of the waves, with only the clothes
they had on and without provisions, except few
pieces of salt beef without water, and without
even compass. After having been buffctted a.
bout for nine days, during which boy named
John Biggn, died from eating the raw meat and
drinking salt water, they made, tine 18th inst.
Slime Head, and were dcscred from Boi1in Island,
about 46 miles from Wesport, on the coast of Ire
land. A boat was Immediately sent to the assist
ancc of the survivors, who brought into the
harbour. The spcctace of suffering which they
exhibited was truly appalling. 1t was with the ut
most difficulty the inhabitants could be got to rem
der assistance to lift them out of the boat, being
impressed with the idea that they had come from
| a ship which had the cholera on board! Thew were
taken to the house of Mr.. HiIdebrand and the mos
prompt and humane attentions were paid to them
They were afterwards removed to the hospital a
Westport, having been brought from Boffin by the
Hamilton revenue cutter, and were under the car,
