' " ,Qur telegrams yesterday reported the Bteamer Norfolk as having left Plymouth for -Melbourne; . This is a mistake, as she left for New Zealand, Lyttelton being her first port of call. The Norfolk isthe inaugural vessel of Money and Wigram's line of steamers which are intended to trade between London and New Zealand. She ought to make the passage out in 55 days. 'Some uneasiness is felt in England regarding the training-ship Atalanta, which left Bermuda at the end of January, and has n6t 'since been heard of. Bermuda is about JSOOo miles . from Eagland, and considering "that the Atalanta had been 72 days at sea, it ; isjnotio be wondered tbat fear? are entertained for her safety. When she left Bermuda she had 300 men and* boys on -board. The Admiralty has ordered tbe Channel Squadron- to institute a search for tbe missing ship. It is somewhat of a coincidence (remarks the Syaney Mqrninq Herald) that ithe "Atalanta which succeeded fcthe ill-fated Eurydice as training ship, should have been op precisely the same voyage, as the Eurydice was when she foundered off the Isle of-yWight, during a snow squall,: with the loss of about 330 lives. This dreadful calamity^ occurred on the 24th March, 1878. The Eurydide, like the Atalanta, left ..Bermuda, after a* cruise in the West Indies. The Atalanta was. qommissioned at Devonport on the 17th' September, 1878, and according to. the, Navy List for January last had the following officers on board :— Captain Francis Stirling • Lieutenants E. A. Blackett; Arthur Dove, Philip E. Fisher; Navy Lieutenant, ,W. H. Stevens; chaplain-/ IJev; -Robert - r Nimmo, . M. A. ; staff r surgeon, ' Edward' M."
