Steamer Collision,
i The Age to-day publishes a telegram from its special correspondent at Hobart, stating that while the Union steamship Wairarapa was racing the steamship Adelaide to the Heads a collision occurred between the two vessels when nearing the Swanspit light. The stern of the Wai«rarapa was struck, and a plate was dinted to a depth of three inches, above the cook's berth, which was much damaged. It is estimated that the repairs to the Wairarapa will cost fully £1000. The correspondent of the Age declares that the passengers on board expressed great indignation at the occurrence. ?., Hobabt, Yesterday.
