Loss of the brig Endeavour, Forsyth, of South Shields

This vessel in 10 days from this port went ashore in a fog on the 27th July, at Mechigan, near Fortune Bay in the Island of Newfoundland.— Captain and crew are saved, but the vessel, it is stated, will not be got off. Captain Forsyth, had landed at Mechigan and it was hoped would be able to save part of the cargo and materials. The cargo consisted chiefly of ashes and timber. The vessel was bound to London, and owned by Mr. Richard Hunter, of South Shields.

    Cleared at Halifax, Providence, Sire, for Quebec, also brig Halifax, Whittin, for Quebec. Schooner President, and brig Sir James Kempt, at Halifax from Quebec in 10 days.

The Martha, reports that the Columbus went on shore on Petit Mittis Point on the night of the 8th, and saw her in the same situation two days after. It is however believed, from her resting on a hard sandy bottom, she will be got off the next high tides, without sustaining any material injury. Captain Milburn, of the Martha, has also furnished the following:—

September 4, at 11 A.M. saw a wreck on the lee bow, with nothing standing above water, but the bowsprit and quarter boards, bore down upon it, and ascertained it to be the Rebecca, of St. John, New Brunswick, appeared to have been a schooner ; the quarter and main decks were gone, and forecastle and deck rising and falling with the waves of the sea. She was stove down to the floor-head in the starboard side, as if some vessel had struck her ; there was several casks in the bottom of the hold that lay fast, some iron and others wooden hooped ; the quarter boards on the larboard side were fast, with the exception of one, bulwarks on both sides were entire, likewise the head, but everything swept away in midships ; the windlass stood fast, paint quite fresh (black with two white streaks) the rudder also fast, tiller gone, and when left she was in lat. 48, 51 N. and 38 miles S.E.E. per compass from the south point of Anticosti.

The Emerald saw the Columbus on Saturday last, and was within a quarter mile of her. They were busily employed lighting her.

    A Jolly Boat with "Thisbe of Liverpool," on the stern, was picked up by the Margaret Ann, arrived at Miramichi, in long. 36. The boat was bottom up. This vessel, it is statedbsailed from Liverpool in April last with a very valuable cargo for Montreal, and has not since been heard of.
    The wreck mentioned in Friday's Supplement as having been fallen in with by the Martha, is supposed to be the Rebecca, Squires, which was lately upset in a squall at Bay des Chaleurs, and owing to the wind freshening was abandoned. No lives were lost.

Brockville, September 27th:

Murder,— Henry Hamilton was committed to the Jail of this District, on Tuesday last, charged with the murder of Samuel Tarbox of Prescott, who has for a considerable time acted as Ferryman between Prescott and Ogdensburgh. The circumstances of this melancholy affair as we have heard them are as follows:— It seems Hamilton had been to Ogdensburgh & bargained for some chairs to be sent to Prescott for him ; the person with whom he made the agreement being doubtful about getting his pay, took the chairs himself across to Prescott, and after having entered them at the Customs House left them in custody of Mrs. Tarbox (Tarbox being then absent) with instructions not to let them go out of her possession until Hamilton should have paid her the amount demanded for them. Shortly after Hamilton called for the chairs, Mrs. Tarbox refused to give them up until he should have paid the sum required, which he refused to do, and swore he would have them, and as he was Deputy Customs House Officer would seize them as smuggled property, and accordingly forcibly took the chairs away. In the evening when Tarbox came home his wife informed him of the affair he went immediately in quest of Hamilton to have the matter arranged, and met with him in the street ; a quarrel ensued ; after some hard words had passed, Hamilton left Tarbox, and went to his saddler's shop, but shortly returned, and the quarrel was renewed, when Hamilton told Tarbox that he was armed, and requested him to desist from abusing him, but Tarbox continued speaking to him. Hamilton then said he would hear it no longer and made a pass at him, which Tarbox received in the hand which was severely cut, and he retreated but was followed up by Hamilton who continued to strike at him in which Tarbox was again cut in the hand and breast, and as he was stooping he received the fatal blow in the neck which having entered deep and severed one of the large blood vessels, he fell and shortly expired. The instrument used by Hamilton is supposed to have been a saddler's round knife, used by them for cutting leather ; it being dusk the by-standers could not distinctly discern what it was & it has yet not been found. An inquest was held on the body of Tarbox, and from the evidence adduced to the Jury, they were under the necessity of giving a verdict of "Wilful Murder."

St. John's, Newfoundland August 24.— The barque Platoff, Captain Houston, from the Bay des Chaleur bound for North Shields, with timber, struck on Cape Pine and bilged, on Wednesday the 11th before the gale came on— stood off to sea and weathered the storm, though water lodged, and has since arrived at Trepassey, where she will be obliged to discharge her cargo to be repaired.

Montreal
On Friday morning last the Steam Boat Richelieu in her passage from Quebec to this port, was ran foul of by the New Swiftsure, and received some damage. As we understand this circumstance will become an object of legal investigation, we forbear making any comments on the information we have received which is of a doubtful character on both sides relative to the transaction. The truth however may be brought out on evidence, and we shall then lay a statement of the affair before the public.

There has not been any arrival from sea since Monday last. The wind which blew so violently from the eastward on that day, did not, it appears, extend to any considerable distance down the river. The remaining vessels which are expected this season, if is probable will arrive during the ensuing week. Several vessels are reported to be on shore at Chebucto and its vicinity, some of which are said to be total wrecks, but it is not likely that they were either bound to or from this port.

Hayti.— Emigration to Hayti (says the National Advocate) is progressing with unexampled rapidity ; it is not a mere experiment, but vessel after vessel is dispatched. It is expected that the ship Concordia will sail this day, with 160 coloured persons of both sexes. The Post says, that "six vessels at Philadelphia, one at Port Elizabeth, one at Alexandria, and several others at Baltimore, are on the eve of sailing for the same destination. It is calculated that between 3 and 4000 of these persons will leave the United States within a few days, and that every fortnight additional numbers will be shipped off under the direction of President Boyer's agent, who pays the expense of their transmission, by authority of the Haytian government.

The new regular trading ship Ottawa, so anxiously looked for, arrived this morning in 58 days from London. She is upwards of 300 tons burthen, a superior vessel of A1 class, fitted up in the first style as a passage ship, and is considered a very fast sailing vessel.
