The British steamer Argyll, bound from London to China, has been run down and sunk by a Norwegian steamer off the Portugese coast. One man was lost.— The P. and O. steamer Mongolia while coming down the Thames collided with the steamer Atlas, and waa damaged, but not seriously. A London telegram of the 23rd inst. to the Melbourne Argus says :— The accident to the P. & O steamer Australia occurred off Ushant on Friday. The steamer Trentham Hall ■was passing and in attempting to tow her tack broke several hawsers. The high seas finally forced her to desist after two days, and she went to Plymouth for assistance. Afterwards the Australia drifted into a dangerous position near Guernsey, where the Valorous and another war vessel followed her with the intention of towing her out. Thia failed, and with difficulty tbe vessels removed the passengers, who were conveyed to Plymouth, where they will await the Pekin. Powerful tugs brought the Australia to Plymouth today.
