THE LAST OF THE HULKs.-We copy the
following from the San Francisco Evening
News. 1t may be of some interest to Cal
ifornians who have travelled, or may be ex-
pected to travel on what remains of the old
ocean steam tubs. It viii be remembered
that the 'S0utherner' was recently wrecked
off the coast of Oregon, fortunately without
the loss Of life:
The last but one of the numerous con-
demned ocean steam floating hulks has been
consigned to the same fate of its iluStrious
predecessOrs-th steamship Southerner
alias Isthmus, is no more a1oat! Her vOy-
ages have ended! No more will she ira
verse the ocean and contend with the
"bounding billows" She has gone down
to q watery grave, never more to be resur-
rected Farewell old tub, your career has
ended. May you slumber on the shore
where you "caved' in-surrounded by the
roar of that ocean whose waves now dash
and die around you. The sea gulls will
sing your perpetual requiem, and make your
broken fragments their dwelling place and
home Farewell, old tub, FAREWELL
The steamship IsthmuS, just lost, was one
of the many condemned steamers employed
by the General Government in the late war
with Mexico. After the war they were all
condemned by the Quarter Master and sold.
They were bought up for little or nothing
by various parties, and the most Of them
were sent round to California, and here they
were pulled up into first class steamships.
Among them were the Isthmus, Eudora,
Washing ton, Commodore Preble Gen. War
rem, Ann McKim, Chesapeake, &c. All of
these hulks have now been wrecked, with
the exception of the McKim and Washing
ton.
The latter has been laid up and we be-
lieve consigned to perpetual decay. The
former, the McKim, now running under the
name of the Humboldt, between this city
and Humboldt Bay, has only to strand
burst her boiler, o. go ashore, to complete
the loss of this whole feet of old ocean steam
tubs. 1t will not be long before she too
will be no more. But before she goes to
that final bourne she will carry down with
her we fear many persons to an untimely
grave. If the loss of the Isthmus has in
vOlved the death of none of her passengers,
then We congratulate the public that she
has been wrecked. In our Judgment she
has always been unseaworthy, and never
should have been allowed to go to sea from
this port.
