On the home voyage Of our New York

twelve summers,was one Of the first victims.
His shipma.es sadly enclosed bis BODY iu

grief ct the loss Of bic natural protector.
spraUg overheard, and before be could be
rescued, was beyond the reach of human
aid.
On the day following the burial, large
shark was noticed in the wake Of the ship,
and as it was almost calm, the sailors asked
permission TO catch it, which was readily
granted BY the captain. Having procured
9 hook and attached a chain and line, and
baited it with pork, they cast it overheard.

board. As it lay on the deck in its death
struggles, the sailors heard a singular rum,
bling noise, that seemed to proceed
from within the dying monster catpive.
Taking ship axe they soon cut their way
into the row dead fish and to their great
surprise found that it had swalloed tie

Massacre of Christians at Jsddah.

A letter from AIe1sndiat 10 the London
Times gives The following details Of the
massacre at Jsddah Of the English and
French Consuls:
About sunset on the 18th Of June the
house Of the English Vice Consul at Jed. i.
dab was suddenly attacked, and invaded
BY some hundred Of Hudramites, (inhab.
itants Of Southern Arabia, who seized the
persons ofthe Consul, wounded him grieV.
ously, and then flung him, still alive, from
the window into the street, where q mob
Of the same fsnatics hacked bis body into
pieces The house was then pillsged, the
serveuts and two drsgoTen Assaasinated,
and the archieves Of the Consulate were
burnt. While this horrible scene was
going on, similar crimes we're committed
at the French Consulate. This Consul,
also attacked by band Of fanatics who
penetrated into the house by the windows
fell mortally wounded by several sabre cuts.
His wife was killed BY a dagger thrusts in
her breast, after having defended herself
courageously, killed the murder of her bus.
band, and wounded several others. Her
daughter, IS years old, succeeded iu esca-
ping by secret door. In the next room
we're the Chancellor Of the Consulate and
bis servant. The latter is a Mussulman,
an old soldier who formerly served in a
battalion Of native Algerines. These two
men and the Consul's youngest daughter
defended themselve SO heroioally that the
murderers retreated for moment, they
soon returned to the charge, but this time
employed 3 stratsgem. A Hudarmite, an
acquaintance of the Chancellor's approach

slightly wounded him in the arm.-

the point of perishing when the Consul's
daughter threw herself on the assassin,
and bit him SO deeply iu the hand that he

several others, and so succeeded in cover

the Chancellor, and a servant, who have
all arrived this evening, in company tf the
