ashore in the harbour. The weather aoce the morning had
been very severe, there being a continued heavy rain with
strong wind. It would appear that the steamer parted her

at the right of the bartioar, where she bumped heavily
several Maim and was fast filling. As soon as the steam
was got up, seeing there was no chance of saving her, she
was steered on to the shore opposite the Cutcherry, where
she settled in the wed. Oreat excitement prevailed on hoard,

is most valuable. Alter the squall of the 2201. the

them into the boats I. no easy matter, but happily it is con-
ehslal without aosident, one boat receiving them on the

two men on the starboard gangway attempting to
