Says the New Zealand Herald of July
10Th: BY the arrival of the Wind,card Ho,
we have received particulars of the shoot
ing of one of her boats crew at Pentecost,
while waiting for recruits, and the massa-
ere Of the boats crew of the Nay Queen
The particulars of the murder do not vary
much from those already received by the
lVtnJied, and already published, except
that the victim died three days afterwards
on board. Concerning the latter, it appears
that while recruiting at Oaba, in the same
spot where the Mystery's boat was lost
some time ago, the two boats of the Muy
Queen were fired upon and massacred by
the natives, eight men being killed, includ-
ing the recruiting agent, European,
while only two escaped, both badly wounded.
Tho perpetrators of this latest outrage are
said to be the same concerned in the mas
sacre of Mr.. johnson, an American trader,
and also the massacre of the men belong
lug to the Mystery, for which peace
offering of pigs was received by the Com
modore. Great satisfaction is expressed
that United States frigate is now in these
waters.
