MUrISY-We learn from the Salem Mercury
of this morning, that the ship Sumatra from Sa-
lem, arrived at Batavia, May Sd. A letter from
IA: Captain states that the 2lst of April, off
Java head he saw vessel in distress. ran down,
and discovered it ta be the British bark Kilners,
Df GLASGOW, and to his establishment, the only
person he saw was n female, who appeared frantic
with despair. The captain sent 8 boat and took
her on board the Sumatra.
She was young lady, eighteen years of age,
the wife of Capt. Smith Of the Barque-she
stated that the Kmers left Batavia two months
previous for Europe; that soon after leaving the
crew mutinied, and came near killing the Captain
Cher husband) and her.elf-but the Captain finally
succeeded in securing them below in different
part. Of the ship-and endeavored with only two
boys to assist him. to work the ship back to Bata-
via, and on the morning previous to her meeting
them, she missed her husband and the boys. She
thought that part Of the crew in the night had
freed themselves, and thrown the Captain and the
BOYS overheard, and taken the boat and pulled for
the land.
In 20 minutes after she got on board the q ST.
matra," perceived, by the aid Of my glass, the
men crawling from the matches and liberating each
other; they then ran aft. and put her helm hard
up,' and her head sails filed Immediately
,'illed away" the Sumatra " and gathering head
way very quickly enabled US to avoid them. They
tackled several times after us-the next morning
she was Is miles to leeward. The Dutch Gov
eminent took care of the lady, as there is no Eng
lish Consul here.
