THE SHIP CONSTITUTION, OF NEWBURYP0Rr.
The reported loss of the ship Constitution from this port
fer Eayre has caused good deal Of unaaness in Utica
two gentlemen well known in that city being passengers on
board Or Churchill son Of A. Churchill Esq, and DR.
Kelly relative Of DR. Churchill being in this city when
the reported loss Of the ship received called on board
the Beona and reports the result to his friend in Utica
He says:
Icelled on Mr. Livingston the agent but found he had
no further information then went board the Belgian
shin Beonn which brings the only report yet received
On the LIST Of Jan. inst, at 10 A NJ, saw the ship Con
stuton lying her side water logged her masts g9ne
ard no one on board and signals Of course given lhe
mate of tie Bel0ns hr DePappe, who gave me this &c
count was in the topmast with glass and within dozen
rods of the wreck lie saw all the letters OF her NAME
and says distinctly she coppered and was large me
ship The sea not very rough nj the time Out tbey
had frequent squalls They saw no ships for two or three
DAYS before or after the lt but about he fh saw the
masts of another wreck.
The latitude of the wreck Of the Constitution was about
80 deg n and longitude 20 w. THIS would be about 400
miles Enst of Sandy Hook did not the Captain Of
the Belona who was not on board. The mate does not
sneak very good English but appears intelligent.
Mr. Livingston the agent says the Constitution was not
cop1ered but she was painted green on her bottom ms
fet furnishes the only ground for doubling the identity OF
Ie wreck But the paint might easily be mistaken Tor
conner which in fact done by persons mere before
her sailing ,,.l
Mr. Livingston thinks that az no one was on board the
ock and IA the CAPTAIN and crew would not leave her
Gov the omen sea while she was whole they must have
been taken of by some other vessel which seems reason
able. c.
The steamer Asia left this port the day after the Con
uton and may have taken the and passengers Oh
if the accident happened before she passed The storm
took place believe the day after she sailed
do not wish unnecessarily to alarm you, but 1t seemed
TO me important 10 lay these facts before you

the wreck fallen in with is doubted by Of the owners
from the fact Of her having Joined hands carved her
catheas instead of star described by the BelOna.
