Tragedy OF the seNs--A Horrible Affair.
The following extract from letter
from Lahaina, gives an account of a
most horrible occurrence which recently
happened al a neighboiing island, dated
March %.
You will have heard from Captain
Green, Of the Ontario, that three men
deserted from him last Friday night -
o-dsy two Of them returned; they were
brought to the United States Consulate
Agency, and made one of the most hor
rbIe statements ! ever heard.
They, as they say, hired boat of 3
natives on Friday evening, aud started
for Hawaii. There were three in the
boat, namely: Walter G. ri e of New
Windsor, Orange County, n. I e.; Rob
ert McCarty, New York city; and ia
cob Won Cliff, belonging to Middetown
Point, N. J.-the latter, colored man.
They pulled all Friday night, Saturday
Sunday, and were unable to pull any
longer.
On Tuesday they driGed on the rocks
at Lahana, and having been without
food or fresh water the whole time, and
having drank salt water, they were in
state observation. They were not able
TO get up the pat, (precipice, land agreed
to cast lots to see who should die for the
benefit of the other two, The lot fell on
Won Cliff, who was klllsd by blows on
the head with stone. They cut his arm
and throat and drank his blood, after
which, they cut piece from his right
arm and ate it. After they became
strengthened, they got up the pail, and
met with some natives, who gave them
food, and brought them across the island,
and to this place in canoes. The natives
have been examined and confirm the
statement made by them The dead
bod. was found as they described, and
buried by them. The Governor will
send to Lahaina tomorrow for the woman
they first saw after landing, and for the
remains OF the boat.
Another letter states that these men
were tried for murder, and acquitted,and
subse quently tried for stealing the boat
and fined $50 and costs. Having no
means of paying the fine, they wsre
working it out on the public roads. N

AN ANCIENT RELIC. A correspond
ent oflhe Commercial Advertiser writing
from Scarborough, Eng land, states hat in
that place he museum contains a perfect
skeleton of an ancient Br,or, dug from a
nelg hboring burrow or tumuIus, six or
eight years ago. The skeleton is perfect.
1t was enclosed in a rude coffin, the trunk
Of an oak tree OF vast dimensions, roughly
followed Out. The tanhin of the oak had
so preserved The body that considerable
portions Of the hair was still cIeavlng 10
the sea p, although from various coins,
imp lemenls and weapons of war, &c.,
found in the coffin, ii was inGispuabIy
proved that the body must have been in
TERED at least two thousand years. The
action Of the tann'n had also turned the
skeleton perfectly black. The proportions
Of this curious relic did not justify the com.
mon opinion as 10 the gigantic stature and
muscular frames of the early Brilons. -
The height did not exceed five feet ten or
eleven inches, and the bones generally
were not atove the ordinary size. The
only indication Of muscular power was in
the amplitude of the chest and the perfect
curve Of The ribs.
