LOSS OF THE EUPHRATES INDIAMAN. II The Hon. Company's ship Euphrates, Captain HERBERT, which ' left this port (Columbo) on the 29th of December, grounded, at about eleven o'clock on the night of the Ist inst. on the rock off Dondra Head, within 100 yards of the shore. The wind being exceedingly light, and a fine star light night, the ladies and all the passengers were safely landed, and an express having been sent off to Matura, notifying the misfortune which had happened, the civil and military Officers immediately set off for the spot, to render every assistance in their power. Before day-light the vessel had three feet water on her orlop deck, and was become a perfect wreck, lying on her beam•ends ;—every soul on board had. in the mean time, been landed, with the principal part of the passengers' baggage, and some of the cargo. On the 3d she remained in the same situation, and hopes were entertained that more of the property might be saved before the ship should go to pieces. The Northampton, which sailed from Portsmouth in company with the Euphrates, arrived here in the offing last night." —(Ceylon Gazelle, Jan. 5, 1813.)

We consWeiect the paragraph as a most foul libel; not-believing that any person Whateier, much less a Nobleman; could be found in this coudtry so bigotted—so lest to every sense of peace and propriety ; but the fAct has been again stated in an article which Concludei thus: 14 As we love the Protestant Constitution, let us Unite to prbteet it.

The origin of the quarrel does not seem to be well understood, it having been related in various ways ; bite the contending parties appear to have met with intentions determinedly murderous, each having supplied themselves with arms and ammunition. The Orangemen having been worsted in the onset, retreated to a village, where they took shelter in some houses, which their purstier; set on fire. Driven to desperation, they fired out of the windows, and killed two of their opponents on the spot : afterwards they sallied out, with the intention of saving themselves by retreat, when they stabbed another (who is now dead), but, being over Powered, three of them were killed. Thus three of each party have been killed, and, we understand, a great number have been wounded."—(Belfast New: Letter.)
