The YACHT WANDERER.-This rak-
isn vessel, so notorious as SLAYER in
ante bellum days, stranded on Cape
Henry beach in ten feet water, on the
18th instant. Hearing of the disaster,
Capt. G. w. Chase, of the wrecking
schooner Henrietta, went down to her
assistance, and returned yesterday to
this city. The particulars we learn from
the enterprising wrecker himself. The
Wanderer was from Bra zil bound te
New York, with cargo of nuts, trop-
ical fruits, and india rubber, most O.
which is a total loss. Her sails and rig
ging were saved uninjured, and as con-
tract has been made with Capt. Chas'
to raise her, it is thought probable tina
she will be gotten off in eight orte
days. Her captain, Joseph Thorndike
ana the crew, have arrived in this city

MURDER BY A NEGRO We learn
that another of those outrageous MUIR
ders by desperate negroes that have so
outraged the feelings of humanity, took
place on the Eastern Shore of Virginia,
one night this week. 1t appears ne
gro fellow named Lewis, called at a
country store late in the night, and
aroused the storekeepcr whose name our
correspondent could not recollect. The
door was opened and the negro imme-
diately made an onslaught on the store
keeper with large butcher knife no had
in his hand prepared for the diabolical
deed. The white man defended him.
self as we'll as he could, but was finally
overcome by the negro who cut his
throat from ear to ear, and then pro-
ceeded to rob the store, after which he
made bis escape. The storek eeper lin
gered in his distressingly painful condi-
ton long enough to tell the ci-eumstan-
ces and the name of the villain to some
one who came along, soon after which
he died.
The negroes name was given as Lew
is, who was well known in the neighbour
hood, and the alarm being given, early
next morning search was made for him,
and he was finally discovered secreted
in a swamp. His captors took him out,
and SO great was the feeling against him
that many were eager to hang him then
and there, but better counsel finally
prevailed and he was committed to
prison to await his trial.
1t is said he had several times before
endeavored to get in the store, and on
one occasion had disguised himself in
fe male apparel and knocked at the door,
but the storekeeper had always pre-
served tho habit of looking out of the
window when anybody kuuokeu al the
door to question them, but by some
means unmentioned he failed to observe
this caution on the latter occasion, which
gave the murderer bis long sought OPP
portunity.
