LOSS OF FIVE BRITISH SHIPS AS TA-
GANROG.
The following is an extract of a letter received at
Lloyd's, from the Admiralty, by W. Dobson, Esq., the
secretary:--
" Ta, ecember 11, 1844.
" Since my report of the lossanrog ofD the British schooner
Elizabeth, and the dangerous position of four other
British ships, the masters and crews of the latter have
been obliged to abandon their vessels, and are now here,
like the men of the Elizabeth, all destitute; for, although'
the said ships have not yet gone to pieces, their po-
sition is such that no hope remains of their being
saved ; and I fear that by reason of the dis-
tance from the land, and the dangerous state
of the ice, very little of the cargoes, or even
of their stores, can be got out of them. Thus,
as you already know, the crew of the Elizabeth, which.
is utterly lost, consisting of seven persons, have saved'
nothing. The Ann Metcalfe is lying on her beam ends,
and is full of water, and the crew, of twelve persons, has
also saved nothing. The Countess of Dunmore is lying
on her side, and must upset with the first shift of wind.
This vessel, notwithstanding an early application from
myself to the acting Governor, both verbally and in
writing, for the protection of the property, has, it is this
day discovered, been plundered by the fishermen of all
her stores, Bcc., the crew, consisting of twelve persons,
having previously reached the shore with extreme dit
culty, and without being able to bring away anything.
The crews of the Hants and British Queen, which ships,
having their sides cut through, are mere wrecks, were
more fortunate, having brought on their shoulders some
effects, but most of their clothes were lost during their
passage to the shore, their lives having been in great
peril while passing over the moving ice. These two
crews consist of twenty pars DRS."
(Signed by the British-Vice-Consul.)
CLEARANCE OF SURPLUS STORES IN THE
PORTS OF BRAZIL.
A decree of the Brazilian Government, received at the
Board of Trade, has been forwarded to Lloyd's. The
articles, which are only of importance to merchants
trading to the Brazils, can be seen at Lloyd's.
LOSS OF THE BRIGS NINE AND PRINCE
ALBERT.
The following is an extract of a letter from the British
Consul at the Cape de Verde, forwarded from the
kozeign`-offtee to W. Dobson, Esq., the Secretary at
Cfbyd's

" Boa Vista, Cape de Verds, Nov. 14, 1844.
"My Lord,—l have the honour to report the loss of
the English brigs Nine, Captain Sinclair, upon the 17th
of September last, upon the Hartwell Reef, at the north-
end of the island, and the Prince Albert, Peter Berry,
master, upon the north point of the island of Fuego, on
the 16th of September. Both vessels were bound to
lehaboe for guano, and were in ballast. lam happy to
say no lives were lost. The crews have been sent to
the river Gambia, there being no chance of their getting
from the islands, an opportunity direct to England sal-
dom'or ever offering.. Some clothing was given them.
" To the Earl of Aberdeen."
