A gentleman from a neighboring city being in Beaufort u few days since was surprised to meet on the street a young girl of his acquantancc who had mysteriously disappeated from her home a short time before.

On Wednesday last a colored sailor on board the Ironclud Catskill got into an altercation on board with the Master ut arms which resulted iu til's slaying of the sailor. It appears that John A.

"\\ hereupon the master at arms whoae name is Monaghan, an Irishman, went into the sail room after him in tlie passage way of which they came to blows, the master at arms using a sabre bayonet which wa9 wrenched out of lus hand by the sailor Gordon, who in turn attempted to use it upon his adversary. Monaglmm then siez.d a rifle from the tuck near by, fixed a bayonet and plunged it into the abdomen of Jordan who sank upon the floor ex cl aiming, 'I am stabbed'. He died on Friday morning.
