THE DEPREDATIONS OF THE coz.
FEDERATE STEAMER ALABAMA,

NV YORK. Oct I6.-Capt Hagcrs, late OF the
ship Brilliant, which was burnt by the rebel
pirate steamer Alabama, or "29O," reports that
another ship was in sight when The Brilliant
was burning, making up towards the wreck,
probably with the hope of saving life, and as
another light was seen AT night, il is presumed
she also was burned. The vessel which brought
the captain 10 this port only brought eight Of
the crews OF the burnt ships. The rest, sixty in
number, would be put aboard the other vessels
fallen in with by the Emily Farnham The
Brill was built AT East Boston, and with
her freight and outfit cost SSo,0U. She was
owned by Messrs. Jenkins & Co, OF New Y ork
and Capt. Haear, Ill OF whose property was on
her. f'
The following is correct list of the vessels
destroyed by the '.29T'-Ships Brilliant Oc-
mulgce, Beuj. Tucker; harks Virginia, Elisha
Dunbar, Ocean Rover; brig Altamah; schrs.
Courser, Weather Gauge and Starlight, and a
ship, name unknown. One hundred and ninety
one prisoners We're landed on the Island OF
Flores. .........
The Alabama is q wooden vessel of 200 tons
burden, copper bottom, 2l0 feet long, rather
narrow, and painted black. She carries three
Us on side, and is pierced for two more
amidships. She has a lUi-pouBder rified pivot
gun forward OF the bridge, and - -pounder on
the main deck. She has tracks laid forward
for a piyot bOw-gun and for a pivot stern
chaser. Her guns are OF the Blakeley pattern,
made by Wesley Preston, Liverpool, dated
1SG2. The pirate steamer is bark rugged, and is
represented To go l3 knots under sail and Is
knots under steam. She can get up steam in %
min utes. She has all the national flags, but
usually sets the ~. Georges Cross on approach.
ing vessel Her complement of men is feO
but she is anxious TO ship more.
The Virginia was captured Sept. II, in lat 30
lon- "a. She was stripped of all her valuables,
and burned. The Elisha Dunbar was taken
next day, and burned. The crews of both ves-
sells Were put in irons On the deck Of the Ala
bama, and kept there night and day till trans
ferred TO the Emily Farnham.
Capt Clifford, OF the Dunbar, saws he nnder-
stood that the Alabama would cruise aboue the
Grand Bank for a few weeks, TO destroy large
American ships. They had knowledge of two
ships being loaded with arms for the United
States, and were in hopes 10 catch them. The
Rebels were anxious 10 catch the Dreadnau ught
and confident of their ability to capture or run
away from any vessel in the United States
TIE steamer being in the track of both outward
and homeward- hound vessels, and more or less
being in sight every day, she will make great
havoc among them.
The Alabama took her armament and crew
on board near the Western Islands, from an
English bark. Her crew are principally Bng-
lish, her officers being composed of the sschiv-
airy of the South" All the water cons sumed
aboard is condensed. She has eight months
provisions, besides what is being plundered.
