Recovery of Victory is hopeless. She is now lying only visible two feet above water at full tide, and at low water daylight can bo seen through her. Has broken in two near the main gangway. Has burst her decks. Is full of water and filling with sand. Doubtful if anything can be saved, Captain Toogood has left Wickliffe Bay, hopeless as to another attempt; and Mr Scott, who went round to-day, will no doubt
return
Remark, from Wellington, brings news to 22nd inst. Nothing important in papers ; but verbally stated that renewal of Native war is almost
certain
Schooner Colleen Bawn, bound for Wellington, got aground at Kaipoi. Has got off, and taken to Lyttelton to discharge for repairs.
