cured here this evening. Paul Fitz German, 6S

will probably die. Constant dissipation had

COLLISION WITH THE PORTLAND STE AMER
The steamer John Brooks, Capt. Lisco mb, on
her passage from Boston at o'clock Tuesday
morning, in thick fog, when three miles east
Thatcher's Island off sCape Aun, came in col
lision with the schooner Helena, staving in the
starboard side of the steamer forward of the
wheel, and completely demolisbing two state
rooms, causing considerable commotion among
tn passengers. Fortunately no one was in
jured. The weather was SO thick that nothing
could be discovered beyond the hull Of either
vessel, both being completely enveloped in the
mist, and the shock OF the collision conveyed
the first knowledge Of the danger. The Off
GERS of the steamer hao merely time enough
TO hail the schooner when she disappeared in
the fog. The John Brooks was stopped half
an hour in an effort to discover her again and
render assistance if any was needed, but no
signs Of her were found. 1t is believed that
the schooner sustained no damage beyond the
loss of her bowsprit The vessel was probably
the British schooner Helena, Capt Brinton
which left Boston Monday for Harborvile !. 20
