Marisa axe unnati.---The New Bedford Mercury, gives a !Ong and minute account of -a mutiny which occurred on board pedal whaling ship Sharon, in NOvember 1842: The fact of the Mutiny was rcliorted sonic time ago, but the particulars have not been published before. • It seems that the!Sharon bad been cruising near the Caroline Islarl i ds, 'had procured supplies at Ascension; and watt preparing for a voyage when eleven of her crew deserted. She shipped a crew of 17 including 6 nittiVis of the Island. On Sun day, November 6,4m - ,latitude 2 deg. 20 sec. N. long., 11 . 5 were lowered deg. East, both boats loered chase of whales, Capt. Norrii. a Portuguese boy who acted as Steward, and three of the native,' were left on board. ss At 4 o'clock, P, t, the boat of Mr. Smith, the mate, which was ab bbuta milo - and a half from the ship, krceived a signal flying, and pulled towards When within! hailing distance , they were told by a boy from within!` that the natives had mut t , dered Capt. Norris, were in possession of the ship. One of the natives,.entirely naked, leapinl; upon , the taffreil, and brandishing a spear, dated' the crew to ,come on l i board.. And on armrd live stood guard at each side. Hammers, belay ; ,, Mg pins and other m issiles Intl been collected fa?, their use, and were hurled furiotutly at the boat, but did little injury.l When the other oat came -up and consulta--; tion was held, it was proposed that both boats; should advance 'at onc e , and board the ship upon'. one aide, the mate/Mr. Smith, upon %sham the death of the Captain had devolved the command, -proposed that the attack should bomade by both crews in ono boat, leaving him the tithei. This proposition, howeve4 set with no favour. A Mr. Clough wha'hatlacted as Mr. Smith's steersman, requested to be rowed` near eh ough,to.' dart his spear at the naked satage on the teleran, but Mr. Smith would not Coneent, deetning, the danger too great. Mr. Clough tben proposed severaldevicea and finding himself unassisted, determined to re take the ship himself,: And; after dark was row ed to the head of the ship, took„a knife in his teeth and swam 'to the ship, accompanied by two ,sharks. After a struggle o'e an hour and a half, the two sharks being hilt cempanions all the 'While - , he succeeded in reaching the ship, and di ciao 'under, seized the rudder at dna heel i aand climbed into the starboard cabin winddiv. ' Find ing that he was not 'discovered, be groped for arms„and found trio tiaiisketi, which he loaded, and two cutlasses. Hearingiornebody`rdescend ing the stairs, he grasited a cuilass and ran thith er; a struggle ensued, but finally Mr. Clettigh succeeded in throwing his antagonist and left him. fa dead. Discovering another savage tiCtlte gangway, he . shot him . through the heart at the moment a,eutting spade, which the fellow heittin his hand, was aimed. tit himself, and disabled his left arm. Tbe'boats were tben hailed, and Clough . told them that two of the mutineers were killed., and himself severelyerounded; but living heard but ono report Iheylvere afraid only one was dead, and refused to come 'near. After half an hour, however, they Jcame, struck a light and the dead body of,Cap Nerds was found head- Oess. The third shut neer surrendered arftl the Shaien pursued her voyage, Mr, Smith acting is Captain, and Mr. CI ugh as second mate. • If' _this narrative is entirely true, we m::et heartily despise the cowardly etinduct of Smith, but can not too much ailan4 t he daring her oism of Mr. Clough.

The favors - blclimpressiion which his apparently earnest and sincere expression of 'diffidence is calculated to malie,is considerably strengthened by the solemn in 'vacation of aid and wisdom from the first great souice, In outlining responsibilities so vast,' he fervently invoke the aid of that •Almigh ty Ruler of the Universe, in whose hands are the destinies of nations and of men, to guard .this' ,heaven favored land against the mischiefs, which, without His guidance, might arise from an unwise vuhlie'policy. With a firm reliance upon the wisdom of Omnipotence to sustain and direct me in the.path of duty which I am appointed to pur sue, I stand in the presence of this assembled Multitude of my countryman, to take upon My self the solemn obligation, to thE best of my obit to preserve, protect, and defendilie Constitu tion of the United States,' • Tracing the address through from' this hegin . iiiaglo its, conclusion, we are disgusted at the di rect and palpable untruthsembodied in it, and the pre e tical dishonesty which is badly concealed by * hypocritical garbe of , •vcrbac piety.
