A Britisli trading vessel has been fired into by '

a Spanish ship of war, oil‘ Cape St. Vincents U)’
which one passenger was killed, and two more
wounded ; the vessel received also coiisiderable
damage in the rigging and sails. She was after-
‘waridsboarded by an ofiicer from the ship, who a-
pologised, saying that a Patriot biig had taken a
Spanish frigate, with half a million of dollars on
board. _ '
Dqf:-at of Zworillo.-—-Capt. XVehb. arrived at
Norfolk, informs"that about the 20th _ult. news
reached Maracaibo of the defeat of Gen. Muril-
lo at Columbuso, a small place a shozt distance up
the Lake, and that his loss was very great. He
has since made a requisition for more troops, am-
munition, and clothing, but it was not probable it
would be filled. The Patriots were highly ela-
ted at their success, as the odds were greatly,a-
srainstthem. Capt. W. did not understand t‘i..: ,

A few cases of the Yellow Fever have occurred
at Charleston. It was confined to strangers, ‘un-
accustomed to the climate, three of whom died.

A number of persons have died in Baltimore of
a malignant fever; but -it does not appear to be
contagious, and is principally confined to l‘cll’s
Point. 7 ’ _ _

At Mobile it is very sickly’; ‘W0 01' “W66 the

The‘Ma.yor of Savannnh, under date of the
12th inst. has issueda Proclamation, declaring
“,3-fxzna contagious fever has prevailed, or now
exists in that city.’ . .

A sail boat, having on board a Mr. Campbell.
witbhis wife and’ three children, and a sister of
Mrs. Ciampbell, was upset at New-York on Sat-
urday‘-last, and all, except Mrs. C. were drowned.

‘Two’-.Iri‘slimen died a few days ago at Provi-
dence, in consequence of drinking freely of cold
water.

- In the course oflast month, four men from the
. northern states,(thei‘r names not mentioned,) who
were employed in building a brick house in Burke
county, Georgia, were poisoned by the use of a
species of wild /zoar-hound or tlzoroug/zworl.-—
Three of the number died in a few hours, and

A mulatto man in Baltimore, .being oppressed
with heat, went up to the top of his master's
house, where be supposed he would be more com-

, fortable. ' Thus unconscious of his danger, he
fell asleep, and amid the slumber, was precipita-
ted from the house into eternity.

At a Court of Oyer and Terminer, held at Leb-
anon, (Penn.) on the 4th inst. came on the trial '
Christian D-achterman, of Millerstown, for the
murder of his son Jolimaged 19. It appeared in
evidence by the confession of the prisoner, that
about the dawn ofday on the 19th of May, he took
from a pile of stove wood, in the room where his
-son was asleep, a billet of walnut, and with it
gave the unfortunate victim several blows, which
caused "hisimmediate death.

, wife andaboy, soon alarmed the inhabitants, and
led them to the horrid scene. Mr. D. was much
agitated, and related to the inquireis that he had
done a terrible act. On being asked the reason,
he said that he had thought, for about three weeks
before, that he was not his son ; and that he had
that _morning killed an evil spirit, or, as be some-

, times termed it, a dragon .’ Both the prisoner and

. deceased, some months before this fatal deed or.-

) currcd,'=liad joined the Methodists ; and it appear-

ed that the prisoner’s mind had often been deran-
ged, from a belief that his sins were too ntimer-
ous to be pardoned; and that he had often at-
tempted to knock his own brains out. But

‘«_such circumstances appeared to accompany the
act, as to create a belief in the minds of the jury,

1-that the prisoner was fully conscious of it; yet,

-by an interposition ofthcir humanity, in their ver-
dict the next morning,’ they reduced the ofience

I‘ ' to murder in the second degree ; and he was sen-

‘. ‘ tenced by the court to six years imprisonment in

s the penitentiary. '
