Total: Number of steamers, 550; tonnage, 488,393. The returns for Glasgow are not yet to hand, POSTED MISSING. The British four-masted iron ship Romsdal has been posted at Lloyd's as missing. She left Liverpool on May 21 of last year for Chittagona. She was then under the command of Captain Smith, and had a crew all told of 31 hands. She arrived at Chittagong and left again on October 31 with a large and valuable cargo of jute for Dundee, and since that time nothing has been heard of the vessel. It was also expected that the captain would have reported himself at St. Helena, but this not having been done, and there being no word of the vessel, it is feared that i she went down during a terrific cyclone i which prevailed shortly after the Romsdal ; sailed. Another vessel, which sailed soon after the Romsdal, arrived at Dundee after a ■ terrible passage. The Romsdal was of 1887 k tons register, built at Greenock in 1877, and was the property of Messrs. Allan, of Glasgow and Liverpool. THE DARCY PRATT. A brigantine was signalled outside of Tiritiri at sundown last evening, but had not made the harbour up to an early hour this morning.
