The Overdue steamer Celtic.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-The agent here OF
the White Star steamer Celtic, says she
left New York on Dec. 18th for Liverpool
and has not yet reached Queenstown, He
says the vessel was due at the latter port
on Monday morning last,and the probable
cause of her non-arrival is an accident &c
the machinery. He feels no anxiety fol-
her safety as the Celtic is staunch ship.
Five years ago she broke down at sea and
proceeded under sail, reaching speed OF
thirteen knots. This rats cannot be ex.
pected now as the winds lately have been
unfayorable for east bound vessels.
