The *‘N«w Zealand Times’* has the following further information concerning the missing schooner Excelsior. It is the general impression amongst those who knew the vessel and how she was laden, that she has capsized. Their reason for 90 thinking appears to be that when the Excelsior left Timaru she was in ballast only, the material used for ballasting her being shingle, and as a very heavy squall has been reported to have swept up the coast on the day the schooner left, a squall in which the barquentine Prince Alfred lost all her soils, she must have mot the full force of it, and being thrown on her beam ends the ballast shifted, not having shifting boards, and she filled and sank. Besides the master, William Hunt, she carried five men, whose names we have been unable to ascertain ; but from what wo can gather the cook’s name is supposed to be Taylor, and Welsh the name of another of the men.
