THE MISSING STEAMER CITY Of BOSTON
RumOI.S of Her Safety
PROPELLER SEEN AT SEA

The following dispatch was received here
by the Associated Press last night, but
afterward pronounced hoax:
New YORK, March THE steamship City
of Boston, which left this port on January
Is, at II NJ. for Liverpool and Queenstown
via Halifax, and about which go much
anxiety has been manifested, arrived to-day
at Halifax.
The Western papers of Saturday contain
this dispatch:
BosToN, March 4-Captain Haffres. of the
bark E. A. Kennedy, from Liverpool, reports
that at A. NJ, February II, latitude forty
eight degrees, longitude thirty-fve degrees,
he passed long, low propeller, apparently
lying still, heading west northwest. She
showed only one bright light at her mast
head. No other lights were visible in the
cabin or about her decks. She had three
masts and was square rugged forward, with
topsail yards. To all appearances the
steamer was in good condition, and bore no
evidences of having met any disaster. Cap
enough to receive any communication il it
had been desired, and heard the steam
escaping.
A report is current here that the steamer
was the City of Boston, and the agent of the
insurance company is of opinion it may
have been her, as the description CORE
spends to her rig, ETC., but there is con-
siderable doubt, as the captain did not OBJ
serve her very particularly, and the general
appearance of the steamer was Ike others
employed in the Atlantic trade. The
steamer seen was also heading in an oppo-
site direction from that the City of Boston
would take on her voyage. 1t is possible it
msy have been her, and she had lost her
rudder, or was inj ured in her machinery,
which would account for her temporary
stOppaye in mid-ocean,

Contrary to general expectation, the Gov.

has been appointed Auditor of Public Ac-
counts in place of Mr.. Wickliffs, now on
trial for high crimes, etc. The appoint.
ment of Mr.. Graham, an old line Democrat,
and an honest man, gives general satisfac-
ton. Mr. Graham, in all the positions of
public trust TO which he has been appointed,
gave the satisfaction that an honest and
capable officer always gives. Over quar-
ter of . century Mr.. Graham was the editor
and proprietor of Democratic paper pub
lished on Common street, in this city.
Afterwards he WAS appointed Surveyor OF
the Port, in which office he displayed his
usual ability and conducted its affairs in q
manner that has since been badly imisated.
He was commissioned 81 notary public and
in this capacity, from his known integrity,
WAS entrusted with q large amount of
business from all classes of people,
although a strict party man up to se-
cession, when he became Union man. He
also held the office Of United States Marshal,
and i'll every capacity discharged his duties
strictly and honestly. Some of the best
editorials that appeared i'll the columns OF
the True Della, daring the absence of DR..
Kennedy, were from his pen, and if he only
attends to the office OF Auditor, giving it his
personal attention, (beisg u man of great
