LOSS OF THE AMP Bio» 5 s OF THE
biLE. AMERICAN SHIPMO
[From the Liverpool Courier, Oct. 6 ]
Ihe American ship Mobile, Captain J w
Tarbox, together with about s.xty " ""
*ons, including passengers and crew
from this port on Tuesday last tiavine on bllird
as near as can be ascertained, tifiv three n«s'■
■enger? and a crew numbering t'wentv-three i
men, including officers. She proceeded" safely !
uniil half past two o'clock on Wedneadav
morning, when she struck on the Arklow
tfaokp, on the Iri-h coast, and shortiy after
wards commenced to break up. At the time
she struck the wind was blowing a pesf ct
hurricane from E. N. E , with a verv heavy
sea run/iing; the only sails she carried at the
tune being the fore and main top sails close
reefed. Efforts were made to launch the boats
shortly alter she struck, but,owing to the hea
vy sea running, this could not be accomplish
ed. The scene on board the ill-fated ship, a
few minutes after striking, baffle*all descrip
tion, the poor passengers running about in ull
directions, crying out piteously for help; and,
at every succeeding ses, one or more of their
number were washed off the wreck, until, in a
very short time, all had disappeared, with the
exception of eight seamen and one passenger,
who had been able to lash themselves to the
channels.
In a few hours after the vessel struck, the
weather moderated, and continued so un;il
Thursday morning, when about 11 o'clock
two echoon hove in sight, and immediately
bore down to the wreck. One of the schooti
era, which was bound to Glasgow, took four
of the sailor* and a paasetiger oo board, and
conveyed them to Gla«go»»; the other took the
remaining four off ami landed them at Wex
ford. When rescued, the* were in a very ex
hausted state from cold and exposure. They
were forwarded to tuia poit in the Wexford
steamer, and arrived on Sunday evening, des
titute of everything but what they stood in.
It is said that after the veasul eiruck noae of
thoae on board considered thera wag any
chance ofbeing saved.
Captain I'arbox, the commander of the ill
feted ship, together with all his officers, perish
ed. He was w eli known, and much respected
in this town. 11 is supposed the ship went to
pieces on Friday, as great quantities of the
wreck, cargo, Ate-, several water casks, and
portions of a vessel, were passed on Friday
and Saturday. The Mobile was r fine vessel,
of one thousand tons burthen, nearly new, and
only making her second voyage. The four
se amen brought to this port were taken in
charge by the American consul, who provi
ded tor their temporary naceasities, and placed
them in a comfortable boarding house.
TRAGICAL EVENT IN PARIS.
The Journal des Debate of October 4, con
tains the following account of a recent trage
dy in Paris:
Yesterday, about nine o'clock in the eve
ning, the quarter of the Madeleine was thrown
into a state of excitement by the knowledge
of a crime which had been just committed
therp, and which has produced the most pain
ful impression. Mr. Bower, aged thirty-eight
yeais, an Englishman, and the Paris corres
pondent of the Morning Advertiser, resided
with his wife and children iu the Rue de Seze,
No. 2. Some months since one of his coun
trymen, Mr. Morion, aged about thirty-five
years, correspondent ot the Dai.y News, and
who resided ill tiie neighborhood, on the
Boulevard des Capucines,29, became intimate
with him and paid him frequent visits. Sub
sequently his assiduities having excited some
suspicions and jealousy in the mind of Mr.
Bower, the latter inteidicttd him from visiting
at his house in future. It would appear, how
ever, that a reconciliation took place between
them, and that Mr. Morton continued his vis
its. Unfortunately, a circumstance of a par
ticular kind occuired to revive the suspicions
of Mr. Bower. His wife, the mother of four
children, was contined about a mouth ago,
and the suffering she underwent was such as
to be frequently followed by inteivals of men
tal derangement.
In the course of last evening, and during one
of her attacks, she told her husband that she
did not wish to see him again, that he was the
devil, that she did not love him, and had never
loved him, and she added that the child to which
she had just given birth was the child of Mr.
Morton. This extraordinary disclosure pro
duced a terrible impression on Mr. Bower; yet
he restrained himself, aud sat down about 8
o'clock to supper. Scarcely had he commen
ced his repast when Mr. Morton entered. The
moment Mr. Bower saw him he ordered him
instantlv to qui', and as Mr. llorton did not
seem to*obey as quickly as the other desired,
he got up from the table, holding his knife in
his hand, and pursued him on the stairs to the
floor beneath, wher, after ari exchange ot some
words, he eiruck him a violent blow with the
knife on the left side of the head near the ear,
which stretched him without movement on the
floor, bsthed in his blood, which flowed iri abun
dance from the wound. Death was instanta
neous. The knife was afterwards picked up.
It is a table knile rounded at the end ; the blade
was bent in the middle by the violence of the
blow. , , .
The Commissary ot Police ot the section ol
the Madeleine, being informed of the crime, pro
ceeded immediately to the spot, and was soon
after joined by the agents on duty, who search
ed, but unsuccessfully, the house, Irom the cel
lar to the garret, to'discover the perpetrator,
who escaped, no one knows how.
