The barque Southern Cross, from Hobartown, was signalled off the Heads at an early hour this morning, and the tug Geelong at once proceeded down for her, and brought her up at 10 30 a.m., casting off abreast of the Peter Denny, where she dropped anchor.

Most of our readers will remember the wreck of the Admella steamer, which took place off Cape Northumberland in August, 1859, and and which created such a profound sensation at the time. It -was then suggested that some efforts should be made to recover the cargo, but some how or other no notice was taken of it, We are now informed by the Melbourne Telegraph that “An attempt is to bo made to recover some valuable property wrecked with the Admella. Mr Thomas Keiller, of Portland, in conjunction with the divers now employed on the Earwon, have made arrangements with Messrs Franco and Longueville, of Port Macdonuell, to proceed at once to the wreck to recover, if possible, the property said to bo still there. It is wellknown at the time of the wreck there was a large quantity of copper and silver-lead, which is recoverable, and it is currently reported that a box containing gold, valued at L 750, is still in the vessel.’’
