LOSS OF THE S. 8.

The Company's & S. Hai phong had gone to her assistance from Swa tow. The Fokian will leave here to-day.

The Boat Rocka are about thirty milea from Bwatow. The S.S. Douglas left here. for the Coast Ports on the 31st ult., and

should have arrived in Switow porterday

on her return voyaga.

It is believed that the accident occurred last night, and the Danube, which arrived

here this morning from the North, reports that when off Swaton last night a dense black fog was met with. It is probablo, therefore, that the Douglas wout on shore during the fog.

The accident is a peculiarly unfortunate one, a Capt. Tong, with his family, were to prossed Home on the completion of this TOPage,

This is the third Douglas which has been lost on this coast, the last one having been stranded in the Haitan Straits on Nov. 14th 1880.
