Dr. Lee and other medical gentlemen used every exertion to restore animation but in vain. The jury returned a verdict of "Accidental Death," and the oreman suggested to the jury the propriety of adding?

The Jury expressed their astonishment that Graham could rend rno assistance, and that he should leave the port with only one seaman on board.

A small dingy was lying near the government shed, on the beach, which the female requested Irvine to shove off, and put her On board, but he declined, saying, "it was not his boat, and hewonldnot lake it;" the deceased then requested Irvine to assist him to shove the boat off, which he did, and the female got into it, and the deceased' appeared very awkward in the boat, but shoved off. On getting alongside the Maria the woman called out " are you all asleep," (or words to that effect,) and immediately afterwards screamed out for assist, ance, as the dingy got overturned. A seaman, named Frank, on board the Maria, hauled his boat alongside and got in, when he picked the woman np, but the soldier had sunk to rise no more. The female on being taken onboard, stated that decensed clung to her for a considerable time, and it was with difficulty she could get rid of him ; that the boat was upset by mere accident as the deceased and her were sitting on the same thought of boat; he on the inner side, and on reaching across ber to lay hold of the rope which hung from the side of the Maria capsized the boat. On the following morning the government boats crew, toge ther with a comrade of deceased, went in search o* the body and found it at no very great distance' from where' the accident took place.
