COLLISION AT SEA.
A 3ARQUE SUM?. ADELAIDE, January 15. The barque Zanita, which has arrived here, reports that early on Christmas morning she collided with the barque Odimbatore, 100 miles west of Cape Leuwin, Western Australia. It is believed the Coimbatore sank. When the Zanita drifted olear she sighted what appeared to be a boat with two men clinging to it, and a seoond boat going to the resoue of the first. The Zanita bove-to and cruised about for the remainder of the night and next day, but saw no traces of the Coimbatore, which was coal laden from Newcastle to Port' Elizabeth. While the vessels were looked together one of the Ooimbafcore's crew jumped on board the Zanita. The Zanita had her bowsprit and some gear carried away.
