and shared the same fate, while one of
the villains slashed our captain across
the face and gave him a wound which
was months in healing, The dead
bodies were searched and thrown over
board, and the living transferred to the
dhow. They were found in her hold
half dead for want Of air, and momen-
tarily expecting to be- led out and muir
dered. The Algerine was caught red
handed, and could trump up no excuse.
He and his whole gang were trans
ferred to the frigate, prize crew put
aboard of the dhow, and we sailed away
for Malta, | was taken very ill there
and had no part in the proceedings.
The captain, mate and one or two
others were condemned and executed,
and the dhow was made prize to the
frigate. 1t was currently reported that
large sum of money was found under
her cabin floor, and that every man
aboard the frigate was well rewarded
The remaining prisoners, numbering
over forty men, were after a time ex-
changed for the shipwrecked French
men, while our brig sailed home empty
handed and much the worse off for the
strange vovage.-N. Y. Sun
