MISSING SHIP.
(BY ELKCI'iUC TELEGRAPH.— COPYRIGHT.) London, November 24. TriE Admiralty has declined to send a vessel to search the Crozet Islands for truces of tho missing ship Cawpcrdowu. bound from London to Newcastle.
(The Catnperdown is a ship of I*lß7 tons, and took out a part cargo to Capetown, and then proceeded on her way to Newcastle to load. She is now long overdue, and was rocently posted as " missing" at Lloyd's. As it was surmised that her crew might, i» the event of mishap to the ship, have succeeded in reaching the Crozets, Tristan d' Acunha, or other islets in the Southern Ocean, a request was made that one of the vessels of the Australian squadron should go in search of those possible survivors, but the home authorities have apparently deemed the chance too remote a one to justify the expenditure.]
