sunk in three feet water near that place
We have not heard what amount of damage
she has sustained by this casualty, but pre-
sumo from the shallow depth of the water
in which she is sunk that her freight will
all be saved without much damage. Should
this disable the Ahdd, so rs to prevent her
from running, we are informed tiias the
steamer Science will take her place in the

Presently the "Professor' changed the
