At low tide to-day everything was in readines to make another attempt to float the Silver Cloud. Five Californian ptimps and the ship's pumps were manned by about four men, a number of others being employed in getting out of the hold. It was soon found that the pumps made rapid headway against the tide, and by twelve o'clock the tide had risen sufficiently to float her off the bank, and she was swung down by means of warps until she grounded opposite the end of the breastwork, about thirty feet from the Mary Wadley; but as the tide had nearly another foot to rise when our report left the Spit it is thought she will be able to be got alongside to-day. However, as she is now lying on an almost level bottom, little difficulty will be experienced in keeping her upright and getting her cargo out.
