COLLISION BETWEEN 7IIE GALATEA
AND THE DESPATCH.

(REUTER'S TELEGRAM.)
SOUTHAMPTON, Sept. 19.

The London and South-Western Company's
steamer Despatch, Captain Deal, and the
schooner Galatea, Captain Ball, of Pruro,
came into collision this morning off Ryde.
The Galatea has lost her figure head, cut
water, bowsprit, - gibboom, and sundry other
damages, whilst the Despatch has carried away
her port paddle-box. Her lifeboat, star-
board, bulwarks, and hull were drove in,
and considerably damaged. No person was
injured on board the Galatea, but Capt. Deal
was knocked overboard, and picked up severely
injured and insensible. The doctor of her Ma-
jesty's steamer Liffy, lying near, went to render
assistance, and finding the captain's shoulder was
broken and dislocated, and that his head was
severely injured, his removal here was considered
advisable. The machinery of the Despatch being
uninjured, she towed the Galatea to Southampton
docks. According to the statement of Captain
Ball the Galatea was off Ryde standing for sea, on
her starboard tack, when the collision occurred about
7.40 this morning.

ANOTHER ACCIDENT TO 7RE HOLY-
HEAD MAIL.

CHESTER, Sept. 19.

The Holyhead mail, due here at eleven o'clock
last night, on nearing the station ran into a goods
train which was shunting. Several passengers re-
ceived slight injuries.
