Wreck of the Eclipse.— The following is taken from the Nelson Colonist, 7th December:—“ On Friday morning the schooner Eclipse left her moorings with a fine breeze, and when she approached the bar the wind suddenly died away. Her anchors were lot go, hut they would not hold, and she dragged into the surf on the inside of the North Spit. A ketch was immediately earned out but dragged homo. At iow water a warp was taken across the river and she was moved in the next two tides a quarter of a mile. The p.s. Bruce came in and Captuiu Kerley kindly offered to tow her off. H.e got up steam and came alongside, and while the tow line was being passed in she hurst her top sides and filled within five minutes. She is uninsured and belonged entirely to Captain Lev'y. The cargo, consisting of old copper and other things, was all washed out of her, and belonged to Captain Levy. Her hull and spars fetched E 3.0 10a by auction. This is an unfortunate end of the Eclipse, which did good service at Opotiki w hen the fanatic Maoris killed Mr Volkner. Since then she ran ashore on the Boulder Bank at Nelson, and received damage that cost a large sum to repair; and now by her total loss at the Buller we believe Captain Levy has lost all he possessed.” The Nelson Examiner, Bth inst., has tho following letter to theeditor“ Sir—Seeing by this day’s Colonist that Captain Levy has lost his all through the total wreck of his vessel, the Eclipse, allow mo to suggest that a subscription bo made up for the purpose of endeavouring to purchase for him some small vessel to earn a living with. Captain Levy lias many friends in New Zealand, and has saved many lives since he has been in the colonies. I feel pleasure in handing you my small mite towards commencing the (I hope) long list. A list could be left at each of the banks and public places.—l am, &c., A Ee.ie.mi.—Nelson, 7th December. [Our correspondent enclosed £3, and we shall be glad to see a subscription undertaken to reimburse Captain Levy for his severe loss, as ho certainly is a man entitled to public consideration. —Ed.
