THE WEST INDIA MAIL-STEAMER

TWEED.

The announcement of the reported loss of another of
the West India mail-packets, which reached London on
Sunday from Havre rid Southampton, and appeared in
this journal of yesterday, caused great excitement in the
City ; and anxious inquiries were made during the day
at the company's office, in Moorgat?-street, with a view
to ascertain whether any authentic information had been
received by the directors on the subject. To these in-
quiries but one reply was given, vie , that the directors
had received no official information of the wreck, the
only intelligence forwarded to the office being a abort
note from their agent at Southampton, and an extract
from the Havre papt,r, the latter containing no facts
beyond those published yesterday.
The Southampton agent wrote as follows :—" By the
Calpe steamer, just arrived from liavre, an American
account has come of the loss of the Tweed. They say
she struck on the Alacranes, and went to pieces almost
immediately, on the 12th of February—that 60 persons
wore lost ; but beyond this I am unable to obtain any
particulars relative to this very unfortunate report,
which, I trust, may be without foundation."
The hope expressed in the last sentence of the South-
atopton agent's letter is shared, it is right to say, by
several of the directors, but the prevailing impression, it
must be added, among parties competent to judge is, that
the account received via Havre is too circumstantial in
its details to be untrue in fact. Moreover, the locality
where the wreck is alleged to have taken place agrees
so exactly with the supposed position of the ship at the
date quoted, that little, if any doubt, is entertained of
her loss.

The frightft:l loss of life described to have taken
place—no less than 60 persons—may, perhaps, lead to
an impression that many passengers have been lost in
the ship. This fear will be in a great degree set at rest
by an announcement, furnished yesterday by Captain
Chappell, the indefatigable secretary of the Royal Mail
Steam-ship C,)mpany, to the effect that when the Tweed
left Grenada, her starting point on the present Toyage,
she had but seven passengers on board for Vera Cruz.
These were—

Mr. Price, of the firm of Manning, Mackintosh, and
Co., of Vera Cruz.

Air. Ellice, nephew of Russell Ellice, Esq., the East
India director.
Mr. Ynchausti.
Mr. Ferias.
Mr. Fontecha.
Mr. G. Le Charlier.
Mr. B• u •

It is possible that passengers may have booked from
Jamaica and the Havanuah for Vera Cruz, in which
event they would, of course, be on board when the
alleged wreck took place ; but it is not considered pro-
bable that any had so booked.
The Alacranes, on which the ship is supposed to hare
struck, is a dangerous coral reef, about 400 miles from
the Havannah, and about 70 from the coast of Yucatan.
It is considered by navigators the most dangerous part
of the Gulf of Mexico, the currents being so capricious
and powerful in that region as frequently to carry vessels
upwards of 40 miles out of their course in one day.
The Tweed was due at Southampton to m'rrow.
In consequence of numerous applications from the re:

latives of persons supposed to be on board the Tweed,
we have procured from the General Register•office of

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY AT THE CAMDEN RAILWAY
STATlON.—Yesterday morning the employes of Messrs.
Crowley and Co., the railway carriers, discovered that
no fewer than twenty-six bales of goods, which had been
transmitted to the firm for conveyance by the Camden-
town rail, had been stolen. The robbery is supposed to
have been effcet,,d between three and four o'clock yes-
terday morning, by some of the most expert of their
class, from the great bulk and weight of the property
taken, in the conveying away of which, it appears, they'
borrowed a horse and cart from some adjacent stables,
belonging to Messrs. Sutton and Co.

We- understand that his Majesty the King of the.
French has lately presented the Dowager Lady Brentott
with a beautiful vase of Sevres china, in token of the
high estimation in which ho holds the memory of het
husband, the late Vice-Admiral Sir J. Brenton, Bee., re
copy of whose memoir his Majesty had been graciously*
pleased to accept from Lady Brenton.
