| lie following remarkable clrcum-
stauce is very similar to one which oc-
Cured at Newport nearly hundred
years ago. The story Of tho vessel which
appered off the beach, with all her sails
up, and standing in for the shore, has
been bruited for many year, five re-
collect Alright, there was found on board
no living creature except a cat--cvery
kettle over the fire, and preparations
made for breakfast. The story has been
the subject Of many conjectures and idle
tales and legends, but we believe the
yoyagers on board that mysterious vessel
were never afterwards heard of. PROV.

| MYSTERIOUS CRcUMsTANSE.-On thurs
day morning, a three masted vessel was
seen off the Bug and Bun head on the
Wexford coast, in full sail which place
is considered very dangerous even for
small craft, in consequence Of the great
number Of rocks which are along that
part Of the coast. The people on the
shore, alarmed for the safety ofthe crew
and vessel, hastenod down to the sen
side to apprize those on board Of their
danger. The people shouted and made
every possible signal, but no answer
from the vessel. She continued 80 near
the shore, and in q short time she came
along side the island, without meeting
any accident, contrary to the expecta.
tions of the anxious and astopished spec-
tators The Waterguards put off in
boat and boarded the vessel and on OK
animation they discovered there was no
person on board dead or alive The
sails, rigging and vessel were in the most
perfect order, and she appeared not to
have suffered the least injury in any re-
pect. She is a foreign vessel and prin-
cipally laden with oil. A box Of dollars
was found, also three watches suspended
from nails, close by the births in the
cabin. What adds to the mystery is.
that the log book was filled up and dated
on Wednesday, tho day previous to her
being discovered.
| The watetguards, who still remain in
possession viii! not be allow ed by the coun.
try people to go ashore, as they ara ap-
prehensivo the crew died from tho choI-
era morbus; but if this were the case,
some Of the bodies would be found on
board. The most probable conjecture 10.
that tho crew abandoned the vessel, fear
ing wreck, or, that they were washed
overheard on Wednesday night, during
which it blew very hard. We expect
to be able To give further particulars a.
bout this singular business in our next.
