THE LOSS OF THE AMAZON.
We have received a communication, of which the follow-
ingis a translation, from Constantinople, written, we be-
lieve, by the captain of the barque which was seen to
pass near the Amazon, and which, it was hoped, might
po,sibly have rescued others of the passengers or crew
of that ill-fated vessel. It will be seen that the captain
of the Norwegian barque did everything in his power
to afford assistance, but that all his efforts were in
vain :
