A telegram received from the general manager of tho Union Insurance Company states that " telegraphic advices from London state that the cargo of the Calypso will all be saved, but of course in a damaged state. Loss 50 per cent, at outside.” It may be explained that the “Australian Shipping News,” of April 17th, in ohronicling-the sinking of the vessel, added that private telegrams received in Melbourne were to the effect that the Calypso su k off Gravesend. It may be presumed that after the collision she was bronsht up from Margate and beache f at Gravesend, which, as Londoners will- recollect, has a fine sandy beach. It is also worth mentioning that in cases of wreck and of wool cargo marks being oblitera'ed, the insurance offices pay in full, pnt the wool into hoteh potch, have it re-secured and sold for the benefit of tbe underwriters who had policies on it.—“ Otago Daily Times.” It is reported that some of the ballast taken from the shipping has been deposited out in raidharbor. Tha harbor authorities have been on the alert, and it is said have obtaim d sufficient evidence to taka proceedings against the patties.
