THE LOSS OF THE AMAZON.
We have received a communication, of whichthe follow-
ing is 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
possibly 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 :

" Constantinople, Feb. 28.
" A statement having reached this port to the effect that
a barque had been close todtiheoislli-tfioantedtoff

any without having on
Ishaom inducedwnany disposition
to correct that statement as
follows:
On our voyage from Newcastle to this port we became
aware, about one o'clock on the night of the 4th of January,
of a great fire, which we 50011 made up our minds must arise
from a ship in flames. At that time we were sailing on a wind
under double-reefed topsails, mainsail and jib, but we imme-
diately put on more sail and worked .up to windward, until
at three o'clock in the morning we had got so close to the
wreck that flakes of fire fell on our deck. We sailed round
the vessel, which was then a frightful mass of flame, without
being able to discover any trace of boats or human beings,
and although a strict 100k-out was kept with this view, both
on deck and from the t.oPs, all our efforts were fruitless.
" Atter this we kept by the wreck at a little distance tillo
the day broke, but at 7 o'clock A.M. an explosion took
place, after which nothing more was to be seen- We there-
fore pursued our voyage.
"This took place in latitude 48.43
N., longitude 5.53,
Greenwich.
"Barque Deodata, of Drammen, Norway.
