Correspondence Of the n. Y. Commercial Advertiser


NASSAU, N. p, Nov II, 1911.
Tho brig Creole, Capt. Enson, of Richmond,
with a cargo of tobacco and 1875 slaves, and four
or five passengers, for New Orleans, sailed from
Hampton Roads on the 9th ult. On the 1th
inst. at s O'Clock, =. NJ, the brig was hove 10,
supposing they would make Abaco next dav.
After the passengers and crew not on duty had
turned IN, the slaves rose upon them, muir
dercd passenger, Mr. John lIewel, owner Of
portion of them, by stabbng him with a bowie
knife, wounded the captain and one of the hands
severely. Bat little defence could be made. as
they were not prepared for such an attack, hav-
Ing but one musket on board while the slaves
had pistols, knives, and biud.e )ns made by cut
ting up handspikcs. They were under no more
restraint than is usual with Storage passengers
and 1t is more tlan probable the whole thing
was arranged before they left Il edmond and
Norfolk. Having obtained possession they
| broke open trunks and ransacked the whole
vessel.
They spared the lives of the passengers and
mates and others, on condition that The vessel
should be taken to Abaco or an Enrlish island
Under these circumstances they arrived here ON
the morning OF the 9th.
The American consul Immediately had the
| captain and two OF the men taken on shore and
their wounds dressed, and also those on board
! ana requested Tue governor 10 pace guard OF
board to prevent the slaves from going on shore
lie well knew that If this was not done it would
be impossible TO secure those guilty OF the mur.
der. This was complied WITH and an inyestga.
ton ordered 10 be taken by two magistrates
The consul also has taken the testimony Of the
, passengers and crew.
Niucteen slaves were Unidentified as having
taken active part in the mutiny and murder,ant
confined until farther orders, the Government
refusing to send them to America for the pres
cnt and the remainder of the slaves, with the
exception Of five, who declined, were liberated
by the Interference of her Majesys subject,
and the authorities ofthe colony, who con,endet
that they could only be cons .dercd and treated
as passengers with Abe right to 90 Oh shore il
boats from the shore whenever they pleased
While the consul commended they were, undo
the circumstances oflhc case, as much portion
of ihe cargo as the tobacco, and that the British
Government had no, the right to interfere in an,
manner that would procure their liberation.
The captain is conyalescng, md will probabl
recover, though it will be very slowly the othc
wounded are doing well. On their liberation,
vessel was Immediately put up for Jamaica, ad

TIE FIRST LOCOMOTIVE FROM Bosroy -
About haf-past 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon
two Locomotive Engines the IIampden and the
Norfolk, with their tenders, arrived at Green
bush from Chatham. They came over the road
without encountering any other obstacle than
that presented by a foot Of snow. Thus the
railroad chain between Albany and Boston is at
length complete. twill be seen by an adcer-
tsenlcnt that the first train of cars will start
from this city for the East Oh Tuesday morning.
The Claremont Eagle, speaking of this impor-
tant work, says:
The read runs to the grand depot of the Erie
Canal, and the manufacturers, fishermen and
importers of Massachusetts will pour over it the
treasures from fifteen tributary rail roads into
the lap of the bounIcss vest and receive in
return the products Of $4,000 miles OF canals

BATH MAINE THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 2s 1871. ..

There is nought beneath The sun that lies
OF high, unchanging, immortal worth.
Why clingest thou then SO fondly to earth
Those high aspiring thoughts that burn
In thy hearts deep cells-and tbither return,
With their terrene toll unsatisfed,
We're not given for earth-Death's portals but
hide
From thy mental view the Enclosed book
Ofwisdom and knowledge Wilt thou then look
Yet again, mid the darkness, and mist, and
cloud,
That envelope earth like funeral shroud,
To seek for the hidden lore that lies
There only in fathomless mysteries
o turn thee, turn thee, from earth away,
From clouds and darkness to heavens broad
ray
From wearying unrewarded toh,
Come, learn of Him who created all.
Let the deathless powers that He hath given
Be satisfied with the wonders of heaven.
Despondng Christian hither come,
And view the scenes of thy future home,
ne mansion VI test my bou lOI Ilee
Hath reserved throughout eternity.
Behold thy place at Hi right hand,
Where thy soul, in confidence, can stand,
Justified freely by disgrace,
And fearlessly view the Almighty 8 face.
Doth not the sight fresh strength impart
With frightened eye, and joyous heart,
Canst thou not now thy course pursue'
Let thy mental eye ever keep in view
The goal. and though, to thy limited sense,
The ways and designs of Providence
Are dark and strange, pet remember that thou
Hereafter shalt know what thou knowest not
now.
How gracious that promise oh is it not worth
A life of unceasing toll On earth,
The thought, that when we from this world
have gone,
We shall all things know even as we are known
Then, trusting disciple replne not that thou
Must struggle with sorrpws and trials below,
While thou thinkest not of it, life cord will
be broken,
To thy glorifed spirit the welcome be spoken
We'll done, good and faithful, behold thy re-
ward,
Forever partalie Of the Joy of thy Lord
To thee will the gracious permission be given,
To search to their depths all the wonders of
heaven. IL.
