A collision occurred in the harbor yesterday afternoon between the cutters Dart and Three Brothers. Both vessels were beating up the harbor against a fresh sea breeze, the former being on the starboard and the latter on the port tack. The master of the Dart seeing that he could not weather the Three Brothers and that a collision was inevitable put his vessel about, and when in stays she was struck by the latter with considerable force. The Dart escaped uninjured, but the mast of the Three Brothers snapped about 12 feet. above the deck, and fell overboard, fortunately injuring no one. Had the Dart kept on her course instead of going about, the Three Brothers would have struck her amidships, and the consequences been serious, but as it was she was struck in a slanting direction, which accounts for her not receiving any injury.
