LOSS OF THE QUEEN OF THE THAMES.

The ' Times ' says:—The douht in which the reported loss of the Queen of the Thames is involved, is increased by the statement in the San Francisco

' News of the World.' Her loss is now " rumored in Liverpool," instead of reported in London. By the 25th of April, the date of the London report, the steamer was only 06 days out, which was hardly long enough to justify fears for her sa'ety; but by the 6 h May—the latest date brought by the Nebraska —she would be 77 days out. After ail, it may turn out, as in many similar cases, that the report regarding her loss is uufouiided, and that, though crippled, she may eventually succeed in reaching port. Let us hope so meanwhile.

A telegram, dated Nelson, June 2, says:—There are no particulars of the loss of the Queen of the Thames be yond the following :—' On A pril 25th there was a report'in London, which is unconfirmed that the steaimVQueen of the Thames, from Melbourne for London, is lost, and many passengers drowned.

The Queen of the Thames bad on board 10L cabin passeugers, including the Hon. 0. Cowper, Agent-Ceneral of New South Wales; Mr. Moore, owner of the vessel; Oliver (of the firm of Oliver and Ulph, Dunodin) and wife ; Wtntworth, of Dunedin, with wife and family; and Goyder, Survey or-Gene-ral of."South Australia. She had eighty seven secend class and twenty thirdclass passengers.
