STARTLING RUMoR.-Tweve years ago last
fall, brig called the " Nile" Capt Brookings,
sailed fiom this port for the West Indies. Sub
sequently, she was found bottom up, ashore on
Bermuda 1t was supposed that her officers and
crew had all found watery grave. Last week,
young man named Reed, returned home to
Woolwich, after an absence in Mexico and
South America Of six years, and he says that he
saw in California a man named Jones, who sail
ed in the " Nile"-that Jones stated that when
in the neighborhood of Bermuda, the brig was
fallen in with by rakish craft, that she was
robbed of all her vauables, that Capt Brookings,
and all his crew were transferred to the pirate
vessel, the " Nile" was then scuttled, the crew
were taken to the south side of Cubu transfer
red to another vessel, carried to Mexico. placed
in the mnes and there they have been kept at
labor ever since, being allowed above ground
but one houl in twenty-four. Jones, by dint of
good fortune succeeded in escaping some five
or six years since, and in finding his way to
California, where he is now living The report
has caused some excitement in this region, and
we understand that measures are on foot to test
its correctness. Mr. Reeds friends have nc
doubt of his veracity-Bath Inquirer.

"EyCrything for Principle,"

Mr.. EditOr;-I notice in the last Freeman
six reasons why we should be active at the com
ing election They should be well considered
by every Liberty Nan in the state. But there
is another question, which ought to be seriously
considered, and that too with the liberaity of. a
phiIanthropst. Ought we to deprive ourselves
of Liberty representative by quarrelng about
what man shall represent us? 1t seems to me
that a man, who will suffer himself to divide his
own friends in the coming election, and thereby
distract the growing influence Of the Liberty
men of this state, and perhaps shut out from the
House of Representatives liberty member
forgets the great cause for which we have sc
long labored Mr.. Editor, there may be many
towns in this state in which the Liberty Party
almost hold the ascendency-there may be many
men in each of these towns who have laboreC
long, and with great success-and now shall
there be one man who shall so far forget his duty
as to permit the least division in his town about
who shall be the candidate!
