' (Received April 27. 1.10 a.m.) It is understood that owing to the atata of the colony's finances it is unlikely tbafc the Government will grant a subsidy to the Vancouver mall service, A strange story comes from Non« mea by the French mall steamer. A small veseel named the Harold, which was reported missing, took shelter near Noumea daring a gale, and reports that while off Elizabeth reef and driving before a terrific storm she passed a whaleboat containing about 20 men looking like castaways. The Harold was unable to render the little craft any assistance, and do newi has been received as to whether any assistance was sent from Nonmea. Two large veseols named the Friars Crag and the Colwyn, bound to Amerioan ports from Newcastle, are rnlealnp, and it is thought that the caatawaya may have been the crew of one of theaa ressels.
