REPORTED LOSS OF THIRTY VESSELS

IN THE ICE.

The Lords of the Admiralty caused yesterday
the following communication to be forwarded to
Lloyd's in reference to several shipwrecks reported
to have occurred in the ice, near Archangel :
" Admiralty, 27th June, 1867.
" Sir,--I am commanded by my Lords Commis-
sioners of the Admiralty to acquaint you, for the
information of the committee for managing the
affairs of Lloyd's, that they have received from the
Board of Trade a copy of a telegram from St.
Petersburgh, dated the 26th, as follows :
" The Verno steamer and four sailing vessels
have reached Archangel. The Cident is lost. The
De Capo has been abandoned. The captain of the
Verno reports some 30 vessels lost or abandoned in
the ice, and as several crews were drifting on ice
floes, he (the captain) suggests that the British Go-
vernment should send a steamer out from Scotland
to their succour, for the owners of the Verno
were induced to telegraph out to him to go.'
"It must be obvious to the committee at Lloyd's
that no steamer sent from a port in England a dis-
tance of 2,000 miles could possibly reach the W bite
Sea in sufficient time to render any reasonable aid
to the ships in distress, and they would suggest to
the committee whether the most expedient, and, in-
deed, the only expeditious course would not be to
send assistance, by steamers or other vessels, from
Archangel, and this should be effected by telegraph.
My lords will be glad to receive any further infor-
mation, but the probable position of the disabled
ships in the White Sea could only be reached
speedily in the manner pointed out.—l am, sir,
your obedient servant,
(Signed) " HENRY LENNOX.
" Rear-Admiral Halsted, Secretary, Lloyd's."
Since the receipt of the above a further telegram
from St. Petersburgh states that among the English
vessels foundered in the ice were the following :
The Bis, the Effort, The Lorhlee, The Earl of Fife,
The Curlew, The Trident, The Prince of Wales,
The Emanuel, The Ennotnia, The Rogan, The
Conqueror, the Matitanias, and The Perseverance.
