THE ANTOFAGASTA. Some months ago telegrams were received from Nelson stating that wreckage had been found, upon a portion of which was painted the words “Antofagasta,” which was evidently the name of a vessel. Considerable correspondence took place in the various papers as to the origin of the word, and to what country the vessel belonged. We (Auckland “Herald”) have never seen or heard anything which would give the slightest clue until yesterday, on the arrival of Mr Campbell, a gentleman hailing from Christchurch, who has been on a tour through South America, and returned via Tahiti and the Islands, arriving here by the schooner Wild Wave from the Society Group. Mr Campbell some time ago saw a copy of the “Herald” containing the account of the finding of the piece of wreckage with “ Antofagasta ” thereon, and it instantly brought to his mind the fact that while in Valparaiso he was desirous to sail for Sydney, and after various inquiries ascertained that a barque was lying at Pisagua, in Peru, of the same name, or very similar to that found on Farewell Spit. She was to sail for Sydney, in ballast, but as the agent in Valparaiso could not guarantee the barque to wait until Mr Campbell reached Pisagua, he declined to book by her, and came on to Tahiti, reaching there in August, in another vessel, thence to Auckland by the schooner Wave of Life. Where the wreckage was found is in the direct track from Peru, and will therefore materially assist in clearing np the mystery which lias shrouded the wreckage. SHIPPING TELEGRAMS.
