Full Text

COLLISION. - The steamer MAY QUEEN, upward bound from Cleveland, collided with the schooner PREBLE near Bar Point, Wednesday morning. The steamer approached a heavy bank of fog just as the schooner emerged from it and a collision was inevitable. She struck the PREBLE near the fore rigging, carried away a few staunchions and did other trifling damage. She immediately took the vessel in tow to Malden.
