ssngsrs.

BKSrcIA, Cal, December "a Last
night, at six o'clock. the steamer Amelia,
from Vallejo to Bonicin, ran on Outer
Island, about a thousand yards from tho
wharf at Benicia. At the time Of the
accident tho fog WIS very thick, and II
was impossible to make accurate calcu.
lations. Tho steamers Partheneus and
Walker passed the island in safety. but
the Amndor, on her way to Sacramento.
came heading directly into the island,
and in such 4 way as to strike the Ame-
lila anidships and crush her. Tho pas
sengsrs stood terror-stricken, awaiting
the blow, but at the last moment tho
danger was seen. and, by the skillful
management OF Captain Fourntt, Of the
Amador, tho di~rectness Of the blow was
avoided, and no serious injury occurred
to the boat or passengers. The Amador,
after landing her passengers ut Benicia,
Immediately put back to the relief Of tho
Amelia. Her freight was transferred to
the Amador, with the passengers. The
Walker remained with the Amelia to
assist In getting her Off at high water
and towing her to a place OF safety In
cAse she IL seriously injured, which Il Is
feared may DO so. as she lies with her
bow resting on jagged rocks and hor
stern very low in the water. That no
lives were lost or nj moro serious dam.
ags done seems ~providontial. consider
ing the possibilities in favor Of u terrible
calamity.

Fsr the Week Esdins December ~, 1874
The great bonanza Of the northern
portion OF the Comstock continues to
be the center OF attraction. throwing all
else in the way OF ore developments
along the lode into tho shade. As will
be seen by our report to-day. Its width
is not yet ascertained. Cress-cut
No. 2 in tho Consolidated Virginia, 100
feet south Of the California line Is in
265 feet, and no signs Of the east wall a.
yet. And 1t still continues in rich ore.
Verify, the big bulge" Of the
great bonanza would seem to be
principally in the California ground.
although the Consolidated Virginia GER
tainly has a huge slice Of ii. Tho value
Of such a hugo body Of rich ore cannot
be estimated. except by mere wild
guesses and self.astounding and con-
founding attempts at figuring. The
greatest figures was reached three or
four days ago, since which time prices
have ruled lower. with, however. q tend
ency to advance again. Many Of those
best posted as to the real value
Of the great bonanza develop
ment thought California stock
would advance to $500 per share. and it
certainly did reach 1t. and even
overtoppcd it a little. Just about that
time many who had evidently been hold
ing for that figure. sold out, thinking 1t
was best to realize when they could get
what they had been looking and waiting
for. The consequence naturally was,
a slight decline; yet that is merely
a breathing spell, for ii is very
liable to advance again and 60
beyond the former high figures. The
ore certainly is in the ground, unques-
tionably rich and plenty of it, and who
shall say that the stock cannot 60 to
81, 200 u share. Poor folks, small hold
ers. would take poor newspaper advice
awhile ago and sell out at poor figures.
