A MADMAN AT SEA

The Brisbane Teha/rnph of 10th March relates the following respecting one of the passengers of the City of Brisbane, which arrived from Sydney on oth March;—“ One of the steerage passengers, a married man named Patrick Barry (whose wife and four children were on board), broke out every now and then in a violent and uncontrollable fit of anger, and went about the deck threatening the lives of all who crossed his path. Xlpon one occasion he sprang over the paddle-box, and slid from there to the sponson, where for some time lie walked about in imminent danger of falling overboard at every roll of the Steamer. Rome time afterwards he burst into the women’s cabin in the steerage, and greatly frightened those who were sleeping within, by bis violent demeanor. During the night of I’riday he wandered about the deck. Being spoken to by one of the sailors, named William Mangan, lie suddenly, without the least provocation, seized a hardwood batten, and aimed a furious blow with it at the man’s head, and broke his arm. After this outrage, Barry was secured and placed under restraint ; but he managed during the night to break loose, and created further alarm. Ultimately he was, by Captain Hill’s order, again secured and placed with his hands tied in one of the closets, a man being ordered to keep watch over him. This was done at about six o’clock on Saturday evening. He was shortly afterwards visited by his wife, who induced him to partake of some refreshment. At about two o’clock in the morning, the chief engineer looked into the closet to see how the man was getting on, when, to his surprise, he found Barry dead. His body was still warm, showing that he had not been dead an hour at jaost,”
