off Cape Flattery, at the entrance to the
Straits of Fuca, and afterward stuck in the
mud off Point Hudson. Her damages are
very slight. A portion of the shoe right aft
and another small portion amdships is split
and that is all. While on the dock the
steamer will be stripped, calked. retrenailed

THE OVERDUE sTRATHEARN.
A few days ago dispatch was received
on Change stating that the steamer Strath-
clyde had arrived at Nagasaki. As no
steamer of that name is mentioned in

TO this port from Java with cargo of sugar
for j. ID. opreckelS, and now long overdue.
A cablegram was sent TO Nagasaki and the
following answer was received yesterday by
Messrs Spreckels: 1.-The Strathearn sailed
from Nagasak for San Francisco on Sep
TENDER 18th, and has not been heard of
since" The presumption is that size has
foundered at sea, but the consignees say
that they have not yet by any means given
up hope
