Iniormation has bcenreeeved Of SAD aiian
Which took place on board OF one OF w'llalns
& Gliddens linelef clipper ships--lne real
commanded by Capt John H. Drew OF Ha'io-
well ON her late passage from Boston to San
Franciseo. The, ship was off Cape Horn, where
Ear several DAYS she was in great peril by one
Of the most terrible gales ever experienced in
June-the dead Of winter.% During this gale It
seems that the third mate insulted his superior
officer, the second mate, by some offensive
language, ON account OF which the latter kick.
ed the former, After the second mate had re-
tired to his berth lthey both occupied the same
cabin,) the third mate, resolved on revenge,
proceeded totheir room below, unlocked his
chest, took therefrom his loaded revolver, and,
approaching his victims bunk, fred twice at
him. Both balls took effect, but were not 30
Immediately fatal but that the wounded man
wa abls to sprine upon his assassin ana RAISE
the cry of inurderl When Capt. Drew ana
others with him reached the scene, the muir
derer had his victim under him upon the floor
and was endeavoring to break his head open
with the butt of his pistol which, on seeing the
captain approaching, he, instantly turned and
blew the second mates brains out with fresh
discharge. The murderer was Immediately
seized, putin irons and kept 4 in, confinement
for the rest of the voyage, till the, ship arrived
in San Francisco, which was upon the 9th of
September last, when he was delivered up to
the United States authorities The event was
most painful one to Captain Drew and all on
board. 1t took place at time when the ship
needed the help of the entire crew in fearful
storm; four, sailors were already ON the sick
list, and this affair deprived her of two more
men. With great difficulty the ship survived
the hurricane, and reached her destination as
above stated. We know not the name of the
murdered man or of his assassin. The first had
been in the same ship with Capt. Drew his two
previous voyages around the world. and was a
good officer. The murderer belonged near Sa-
lem, Mass, where, we understand, he sustain.
ed good reputation. What has been done in
his case since his delivery to the authorities
we have not yet learned; but doubtless SO per.
sistent case of wilful murder must cost him
his life. ~ s.ss : hrsr.l - aJiefu o. 6s4sffUattn
