The schooner Lady Bentley. captain Scott. at
this port, sailed from o noa 9th May-was al
Omoa Il days, during which time saw several
men killed, among them Mr.. A. p. Osman,
| American Consul. The castle is continually
firing into town, aud every house has more
less damage done to it. 1t puts one in mind of
the Deserted Village. Peter Cruiser, the super
cargo, went to town every day, and in one in.
stance came very near being killed: being in Mr..
Osman's house "a pound shot passed through
within 10 feet of him. The Don Miguel party
on our arrival had small vessels, but they have
lost Q, one shipwrecked and one dsarmed at Ba.
lie; remain, which is the support Of the castle,
Here they are arming three American vessels, the
| Wasp, the Plandome, and the William, to block
ade the castle and cut of supplies-the only way
| BY which it can be taken, as the town party has
no artillery, and the castle has some so, IS and
"a Founders and plenty of powder and shot
The csste is said to be short of provisions, and
by strict blockade il must surrender.

which makes it impossible to scale them-the
force within is about 900 men and about 500 wo-

description. There are also about so prisoners
within, one of which is said to be an American.
We were much indebted to an English schooner
Stationed there with troops. and a corvette to
protect the English commerce, who offered US
the same protection as the English and gave no.

The siege is over, but the assailed have

tanned that very few persons under age have
died, and therefore, if we add to our resi-
dent population OF 3l,00O-the probable
number OF emgrants ,000-making B5,-
600; and take 10th as the number of adults,
say less than 5000, we have had a death
out OF every persons liable 10 the disease
Such week, as the one from the 18th TO the
oath, have never seen, and hope never will
be repeated. Imagination can scarcely con
ceive a more distressing time. The inquiry
made was not who is sick, but who are dead
and buried. Many who rose with the
mornings sun, alive and healthy, we're, ere
II set, beyond the reach ofhuman ills. When
we (the boarders of our HoteD parted with
each other at night, il was felt by each
OF US, that probably we had seen each
other for the last time, or at best, that our
next interview would be at the bed side of
some one olus who was rapidly journeyine
the way of all flesh. None of nv intimate
friends have been taken away, but many with
whom was slightly acquainted, and knew
by name.
The tatal effects ofthe cholera here, and at
Quebec, must be attributed mainly TO the
excessive hlthiness Of the places
The Montreal Minerva states, that among
35o members OF Temperance Society in
that city there had been but one death and
very few mild cases only. This speaks
volumes.
