We thank Mr. Dugdale i[pur»er) for report of the trip. On the Stormbird coming up the harbor to the wharf she come into collision with the brigantine Isabelle at anchor. The following is Captain Doiie’s report of the affair: — The morning was very dark, and a strong S.E. gale was blowing. The steamer was coming up under easy steam, and suddenly the reflection of her masthead light revealed a vessel's bowsprit ahead on the lee bow. No light was visible. Immediately the Stormbird’s rudder was put hard a starboard, but owing to the heavy wind blowing she did not answer her helm lively enough, and came into collision with the vessel ahead. The brigantine’s gjibboom, which was rigged in. fouled the steamer’s starboard tore rigging, carrying away the three shrouds, backstays, funnel stays, and also the foremost port davit, besides injuring the boat. As soon as she had got clear of the brigantine, the Stormbird came up to the wharf. Captain Barnard, of the Isabelle, states that at 1.30 a.m. yesterday he was awakened by a sudden crash and shock. On coming on deck he saw a steamer in collision with his vessel’s bows. She soon got clear, and on examination for what damage she bad done to his vessel found the bowsprit shattered greatly and split in two and the shrouds carried away. The knightheads received a severe shock and were wrenched out of position several inches. As to whether the vessel’s stem is damag ed Captain Barnard has as yet been unable to ascertain. He states distinctly that his riding light was burning brightly at the time. Fortunately for both vsssels the brigantine had her new jibboom in, for if it had been in Its proper place yesterday morning tho damage done by the collision‘would no doubt be far greater than was the case. ... ‘ aouminwiAL.
