The PASSENGERS OF TIE LYONNAIs The
steamship Europa, it appears, fails to bring
the expected confirmation Of the report brought
by the Canada that number of the passen.
gers OF the lost steamer Lyonnais had been
rescued. 1t is now feared that the report was
founded on InisIpprebensiOn, and that none
of those unfortunate passengers has escaped
alive. The agent of the Lyonnais in New
ork bad letters from Paris to the 10th inst =,
which make no mention OF the rescue The
Courier du HaVre, Of Dec. 8, thus speaks of
the rumor
"A Bordeaux Journal, La Gironde, has pub
lished dispatch announcing the safety of a
boat containing Capt. Dsvaulx, of the Lyon
nais. and fifteen of her crew. We have the
painful conviction that La Gironde wa in en-.
TOR.
La Gironds does not Indicate the origin of
this dispatch, and the house of Gauthier
freres hos received nothing in relation to this.
IT Captain Deyaulx has been picked I'D by a
vessel coming TO Europe, and could not send
news of his safety to his family, why could be
Lot as we'll have sent the news to his employ
erst Besides it is three days ago that La eli
| ronde published this despatch, which doabt
less grew out of the safety of the mate of the
| LyOnnais, NJ. Lugaiere, and the lnen who
were in the boat picked up by the Elise -
The hypothesis Is but too probable 1t has
become still more so to US, for if it could have
| been contradicted at all it would certainly
| have been during the five days which elapsed
| between the article Of the Courier and the
| asilng Of the Europa
