STEAMER NOTES. AS the steamer Cam
den of the St. John line was leaving her
berth at the foot of Franklin wharf, Port
land, Friday afternoon at 4l5 she crashed
into the steamer Monhegan of the Rackland

to assist the Camden. AS she was being
hauled out her stern swung around and
struck the stern of the Monhegan, breaking
one OF the stanchons which support the
upper deck The accident did not detain
the Camden and caused no apprehension
among the passengers on board. Steamer
