NELSON.
[From the Nelson Examiner, April 12.]
Considerable anxiety is felt as to the fate of the Castle Eden, which sailed from Lyttelton for Nelson on the 7th of March last, and has never since been heard of. For a time, we supposed that she might have encountered had weather, and been compelled to take refuge in some other port, but it seems a folly to buoy ourselves up longer with any such hope. We have heard it said that she bad a very mutinous crew on board when she sailed from Lyttelton ; and the only conclusion we can come to is, that the vessel has been wrecked, or ran away with." She was a vessel of 930 tons, and had several passengers on board for this place. The editor of the Lyttelton Times will confer a favour on the friends of the unfortunate persons on board the Castle Eden when she sailed, if he makes known their names.
