A letter has been received in Hobart Town, dated on board the brig Amity, 2nd April when lying of Clark's Reef. The brig had 100 barrels of oil on board and the Lindsay 370 barrels. The latter vessel had picked up an open boat at sea, a New Zealand lad who had witnessed the capture by the blacks, of the brig Dragon. He states that the vessel was burnt, and all the crew were put to death and afterwards eaten. The attack first commenced when the crew of the whaler had made fast to a fish, and had run it into a small inlet when the numbers of the natives soon overpowered them and the disastrous sequel too easily was effected"
