DISCOVERY OF A CLUE TO LOlio-LOST TREASURE
The Dutch journals contain the following :—" About sixty
years ags, in 1799, an English frigate, the Lutine,
foundered between Vieland and Terschellng, having on
board- ass enormous treasure in gold and silver bars, in-
tended-for Russia. All the crew, with the exception of
one man, perished. This man reached the shore, and
communicated to some fishermen the name and destination
of the vessel, but at the end of three days he died from the
fatigue which he had undergone. The hull became 60
deeply imbedded in the sand that all attempts to save any
part, of the treasure were fruitless. A commission was
formed, and several experiments tried, on condition that
the persons engaged were to have half the treasure re-
covered ; but the outlay of money was a pure loss, and the
affair at last sank in oblivion. A few days since, two
fishermen discovered near the spot where the Lutine
pandered, a buoy floating just under water, and, on
pulling it up, they found at the other end of it a piece of
plank, on which was marked out with copper nails the
word Latins,. As the spot where the ill-fated vessel
went down is now known, it is expected that fresh and
perhaps more successful experiments will be made to get
at her treasure."
WRECK OF THE STEAMER AMIILIA.—A Court of Enquiry,
ordered by the Board of Trade, has been sitting at the
Bristol Court House, to investigate ihe circumstances
under which the steamer Amelia, pl ing between Liver-
pool and Bristol, was lost off St. Gowan's Head, near
Milford, on the morning of the 29th of March. Captain
'Hardy, RN , attended as the naval assessor of the magis-
trates, Messrs. B. P. King and Joseph Coates; Mr. Am.
brose Foote, collector of customs, conducted theJ case on
behalf of the Board of Trade. The master and the mate
were alone examined. The magistrates retired for about
half an hoar, and on their return Mr. Brice, the magis-
trates' clerk, stated that he was directed to read so much
of the report of the magistrates to the Board of Trade as
they thought material for the information of the public.
That portion of the report was as follows :—" In the
opinion of the justices, the accident arose in consequence of
the master either mistaking the land he made, or misjudg-
ing his distance from it, and disregarding the use of the
lead, which, with reference to the fog whicb, then prevailed,
ought to have been especially attended to." The magis-
trates had given their reasons for coming to this conclusion
in their report to the Board of Trade, and Captain Hardy,
the naval assessor, fully concurred in the judgment which
lead b.en arrived at.
