The steamer came off undamaged and is now at the wharf. It is understood that som<v_of the cargo of timber was jettisoned when the vessel went aground on Friday, but a good deal will be recoverable. The stranding would not have happened but for a mishap which took place to the steampipe at. the time of crossing the bar.
