Our staunch old ship arrived here on the 4th inst, On the previous day, st six P. M., while coming towards the outer bar of the Woosung river, we beheld a three masted French steamer, showing white and blue lights, about one mile diatant off our starboard cathead, and heading directly for us. Believing that she desired to speak with us, our captain gave orders to stop the engines ‘and remain stationary, In ten minutes afterwards she crossed our bows, carrylog away eur jibboom, and an chored off our port beam. The damage she sustained by the oollission was more serious than ours, however, involving the om of her quarter boats and bulwarks, her main yard and mizen topmast. She moved out of signt early next morning, to repair damages, ashamed to show herself in open day- light. Iam unable to give you the name of this steamer, but wé bad a full view of her on the morning of the Sth inst., as she moved by us on her way up to Shanghae. She was recognized by our pilot as the vessel which was placed at the disposal of the French Minister some time ego. She is certainly a disgrace to any nation. After re- placing our broken spar by a new one, we movod up to ‘our present anchorage. ‘Three horrid butcheries were committed ou board tho English brig Galiant, Captain Moore, belonging to Calcutta, on the evening of the ist uit. at seven in the afternoon, after coming to an anchor off the outer bar of the Woosung river, the crew went below, and commenced to drink and esicg songs, uatt) eleven o'clock, when some of the most sober of them, while attempting to get on deck, found that the hatches were all fastened down fore and aft. The second mato, who was one of the revellers, became alarmed at this, and taking bold of an axe, be finally succeoced ia forcing his way on the deck, followed by remainder of the crew. the deck was to move towards the cabin, but while doing so, he tell across the dead body of a Malay sailor, whose face, breast amd abaomen were terribly matilated by kuife wounds Fearing that pirates had taken possession of the veesel, he ran forward, elipped the cable and dropped down to the Mia- nesota, crying murder The commanding officer on board the Minnesota heard the cries, and sent tho first wh boai, in charge of Lieutenant Simms, to nis assisten When this officer boarded the brig, he found the entrances to the cabin blocked up by the lifeless bodies of Cap tain Moore and his first mute; the throat of the former was cut irom car to car, and the mate’s brains ware deat out in @ shocking manner.
