Arrival Of the steamer
CeylOn.

This vessel, which left England in
October last, for a nine months ex-
cursion around the world, arrived
at this port on Saturday last. fifteen
days from Yokohama. The Ceylon
is screw steamer of 2,100 tons
burthen, commanded by Capt. Len
ham, and was fitted out with every
regard for the comfort and pleasure
of voyagers,-of whom there are
thirty-two on board-including an
experienced medical man, DIR. G. H.
Locker, a first-class cook, and a
band of musicians. Among the
tourists is Mr.. G. E. Fripp, special
artist for the Graphic illustrated
paper, who was artist and corres-
pondent for that journal during the
war in South Africa. Shortly after
leaving Yokohama for this port, the
Ceyion experienced a severe gale, or
typhoon, in which she lost one boat
and damaged several others, since
which has experienced fine weather.
She proceeds hence to Hilo to-day,
leaving at 4 PM, where she will re-
main several days in order to afford
the party an opportunity to visit the
volcano, after which she will sail
directly for San Francisco. There
those who wish to do so, will proceed
across the Continent and so on to
London.
The voyage is represented as hav-
ing been a very agreeable one, and
its record will doubtless make Il
readable book. The ship has visited
a great many points of interest:
Bordeaux, Lisbon, Gibraltar, NAL
aga, Marseilles, Genoa, Naples,
Palermo, Malta, Piraeus, Constanti-
nople, Smyrna, Rhodes, Alexandria,
Port Said, Suez, Alden, Bombay,
Colombo, Point de Gale, Madras,
Calcutta, Penang, Singapore, Ma
nilla, Hongkong, Shanghae. Naga-
saki, Hiogo, Yokohama, and now
Honolulu After leaving San Fran
cisco she will proceed on the return
to Southampton via Magatlan, Pa
mama, Guayaquil, Callao, Valparaiso,
Falkland Islands, Montevideo, Rio
de Janeiro, Bahia, Cape de Verde,
Canary Islands, and Madeira.
While the ship was at Singapore,
the party went to Johole and spent
a day with the Maharaja, who enter
tain them at banquet. At Hong
kong, all went up to Canton and
thoroughly inspected that great
Chinese hive. From IIiogo, in
Japan, went inland to Kioto, and
enjoyed the exciting novelty of
shooting the rapids.
One result of this novel voyage
will be that the travellers, on their
return to England, (besides the
varied experiences, will have gained

Esquire Thos. Larkin was the victim last Sun
day afternoon Of most outrageous assault, the
mystery Of which is that it did not result in his
death. He was making q call on the family Of
Mr.. shsughnessey, the old gentleman who not
long since broke his leg at the La Sale street
bridge, and was sitting there comforting Mr.. 8.
while Drs. Macarthur and Hard were dressing the
limb. AS they were at work one John Gordon
appeared with the handle Of pick and before he
could be interfered with struck Mr.. Larkin two
villainous blows-one on the breast and another
on the head, laying bare the skull by cut some
six inches long! DR.. Macarthur then interfered
and secured the weapon. The outrageous attack
rled the Doctors good Scottish blood, and in his
great indignation he would have inflicted just
punishment in kind then and there but for better
counsel, and after another scufile with the vii
lain kicked him out Of the house. The Esquire
was found insensible and given immediate atten.
ton so that his recovery is only matter Of time.
The dressing Of Mr.. Shaughnesseys wound was
then concluded. -Corden was arrested during the
evening and on Monday admitted to bail in bonds
OF $500.

committed suicide In that shop. She was at
work after dinner when she suddenly fell from
her chair. fit seemed to be the cause and the
usual restoratives were administered and physi

she had bought and taken strychnine. II also
appeared from note found in her pocket, that
she had died OF u broken heart"-unrequited

who for reasons best known to himself about a
year since ceased keeping company with her. a

the above facts. She was about "a years OF age,
