THE LOSS OF THE LONDON.

The official inquiry was resumed this morning at
Greenwich, when some of the other members of the
crew were examined, but their evidence was in a
great measure merely a repetition of that already
adduced. The assessors have now had before them
witnesses to speak to the construction of the vessel,
her cargo, and navigation, and at the close of the
evidence they will make a report to the Board of
Trade based upon the evidence adduced. The
public interest in the inquiry, judging from the
attendance this morning, seems to have in a great
measure closed with the examination of the engi-
neers. Nothing beyond that which is now on re-
cord can ever be known relative to the last and fatal
voyage of the steam vessel London.
