The Plymouth correspondent of a London paper writes:—" While the steamer Warrior was off an island in the West Indies, but out of sight of land, a human cry was heard, and the carpenter said be had seen a man struggling in the water. The engines were at once stopped, and a boat put off. After a long pull in the direction noted the cry was again heard, and half an hour later a man was discovered and picked up. He proved to be a native of Jamaica, named Alexander Hughes, and said he had been three days in the water clinging to a clothes chest. He was one of the crew and passengers of the schooner The Little Minnie, which capsized at sea and sank while on her passage to Colon. The accident occurred 60 miles from where the man was picked up. He was the only survivor."
