SHOCKING AFFAIR "A MAN LEFT ON BARREN
PREcIPICE-The United States steamer Surveyor
has been engaged the present summer in surveying
the adjacent Bay, and Its various harbors, &c.,
der the command OF Capt. w. G. Williams of the
United States Typographical Corps. Something
more than week ago, the boat was at deaths
Door," well known channel leading into Green
Bay, and station was erected on the Bluffs, con-
OF precipces and chasms. In some Places
the Bluffs are two hundred and even two hundred
and fifty feethigh-the surrounding counryls mostly
barren and rocky. On the day before alluded to,
Captain Williams was on shore with a party OF men.
Dinner hour approached, and the party went to the
landing then II was discovered that Richard Bart
lett young man employed in the survey, was
nissing. Instead of waiting, Captain Williams di-
reced the to shove of and pull tor the steamer
which was accordingly done. Alter dinner Captain
W. continued his survey. Bartlett not appearing,
the sailing master directed the bell to be rung, and
sent party OF men ashore to search for the MISS
lng man. they returned at sunset without success.
Tracts were discovered on the Bluffs WI thin sight
ot the boat, but they could not be traced any dis
lance. The two succeeding days considerable
search was made, but 1t was all unavailing. In the
meantime the ST. amer had visited Eagle Harbor
and returned. The search was then abandoned AS
useless. The lost man has wealthy relatives at But
dlo, and he Is the only son OF a widowed mother.
Daring rs the Indians are, they rarely visit that
rocky place Ii Bartlett had received wound or
been killed, we think he would have been found.
When las! seen, II was quarter OF an hour before
the boat showed oil; he parted from comrade-
each taking, as they supposed, the nearest route

direction. AS It was a cloudy day, he may have
got into piece OF timber, where 1t is the easiest
