were pretty well filled with passengers,
and the scene on board, as may we'll be
imagined, was terrific for few mimi ties.
The GOODNESS Of the officers Of both boats
was equal to the emergency, and thus
prevented recurrence Of the horrors
so frequently attending such accidents.
No lives were lost, nor was there much
damage done to freight, although each
had about as much on board as the stage

There are the usual conflicting reports
as to the cause Of the accident, but we
believe the most.reliable one Is that which
attributes II toFmistaking signals" We
presume the matter will be Investigated
by the proper authorities, and the true
cause ascertained. After a short delay,
the Science resumed her trip to ParkeS.

whatever, 80 far as we could learn.
