The cargo, consist Ing of barrels of spirits, is nntuncbed, with tne exception or oue oask which bad start ed. There are no signs of tbe vessel hav ing suffered from bad weather in any single respect, tbe most minute examinations bav ing failed to detect any injury above tbe water or below it. A harmonium la tbe captain's cabin and tbe musio books were all in their places untouched by sail water. A little phial of oil was still standing by a sewing machine, and a reel of cotton and a thimble bad not yet rolled oil. the table. Nor bad. tbe cabin been plundered for its oontents, belonging to a lady and child, ' were of considerable value, a award was in its scabbard, rusty, and with marks of blood baviog been wiped off. There are marks like abarp outs on tbe top gallant rail and on both sides of tbe vessel's bow, wbicb appear to bave been done on purpose Wbethfr tbis points to. any act of violence and with what motive' committed why tbe vassal was left under sail, or ia apparent absence ol either plunder or peril, wby she was ever deserted at all is slill au absolute mystoryj for up to the present -moment ro traoe has been found of tbe' lady 'or child, ol tbe captain or any one of tbe crew.
