Sainsbury was restless and unsettled, being depressed at the state of his health, and ho feared it was hopeless to expect cornpleto recovery. On Monday last there was nothing to show that the illness was more acute, and whon last seen early on Tuesday morning j ho appeared to be sleeping soundiyin his cabin, which was specially set aside for him. Tho steward attending him missed the patient about 5 30 on Tuesday mornins, and reported the matter to the cffi'.;ers. The Captain put the ship about and searched for two hours, but no trace of tho missing man was found. The position of the vessel was 38 39 S. 167 12 E.
