PORT NICHOLSON.
tn the Spectator of the 13th instant, we find some additional particulars of the robberies committed on the wreck of the Falco, which differ materially from the account published in our last number. These particulars are given by two persons who were on, the spot at the time, and if their account may be relied upon, it would appear that the master of the Falco evinced but little anxiety for the safety of his vessel, and none for that of the mail entrusted to his charge. The Government despatches alluded to in the former account of the wreck were those brought out in the Tyne ; the Falco must have left Wellington before the Louisa Campbell arrived there.
