Auckland, July 9.—lt is now stated that only two persons are missing with the auxiliary boat Mavis—namely, Captain Johnston and young J. T. Gary, who came lately from America as one of the TJnited Brotherhood party by the American brigantine Freed Edward, which arrived at Fiji lately from San Francisco, and .who left the vessel at Fiji and came on to Auckland. The s.s. ; Ngunguru has returned to Mongonui again. She reports that she did not see the derelict'cuttev.
