the agent OF the company in th.s city Is OF the
opinion tnat 1t may have been her. the description
gwen corresponds TO her rig, &c, but there Is con-
siderable doubt as the captain did not observe her
very particularly, and the general appearance OF
the steamer was like others employed in the Atlantic
trade The steamer seen was also heading in an op.

would take on her voyage. II ID possible 1t may
have been her and that she had lost her rudder or
