P;Ast il ou ß Tl l l, T M l A S a r c i u 2S6E.—ALlViaatAniSt schoonerbriga brigantine ell Elizabeth.am tn ar is The was G. P. Wittall, of Bristol, registers 148 tons, is com manded by Captain Joseph Miles, and left Bristol on Monday, the 11th of March inst., for Trieste and Smyrna, with a general cargo of hale goods, con of twists, manufactured cottons, calicos, &c., a quantity of iron and coal. On the 15th inst., at 9.30 A.M.,when in longitude 8.48 west ant i latitude 46.34 th, under all plain sail, steering south-wear, they were overtaken by a sudden gust of wind from the south-east, which broke the head of the foretnast under the cross trees, just above the jaws, and it) the fall the foremast carried away the mainmast 17 feet from the deck, and the wreck fell over the starboard s id e . The masts thumped heavily against the ship, and the crew cut all away as. speedily as possible. Having rigged two main staysaili on the' stump of the masts, they put the vessel before the wind, and so ran all that day and night, and the next morn ing, at 8 A M., sighted a schooner, which bore down, and at noon took them in tow. She proved to be the Elizabeth, John Long master, belong ing to Captain Collins, of London, 104 tons register, and in ballast, from London for St. Michaels. While making fast, the stump of the brigantine's main mast, went by the board, tore the coat and combings up, and thus admitted the water freely into the hold, until it was stopped. Six bales of goods and a quantity of iron were then thrown overboard to lighten her aft. On Sunday and Mon day the sea made a complete breach over the brigan tine, and nothing could then be done to assist her ; i but the men cut away the forecastle bulkhead, took out a quantity of nail-rod iron, and with consider able difficulty passed it up the forecastle hatchway and threw it overboard. On Tuesday, the weather having somewhat abated, Captain Long and four of his hands left the Elizabeth and assisted Captain Miles in hoisting a fore topmast staysail and spare topmast staysail on the broken foremast, and in rig ging against the gallows aft a lower boom and a spare spar as shears, on which a main staysail, shoulder of mutton fashion, was hoisted. The next day (Wednes day) Captain Long went again on board, and eased the brigantine of five bales and 60 packages of valu able manufactured goods, which were conveyed safely on board the Elizabeth ; but in this effort her boat was stoved. Happily, ail this time the brig antine was stanch, or she must have gone down, as the men could not have stood at the pumps in such weather. The tow-ropes were two 7-inch and one 4-inch warp, about 100 fathoms long, fastened to the windlass of the schooner and to the windlass bits of the brigantine. When the Elizabeth commenced her arduous task she was under double-reefed try sail, double-reefed foresail, reefed fore staysail, and standing jib; the sea constantly made a complete breach right fore and aft over her decks. Excepting on Monday, she was all the time under reefed canvass and bud to beat to windward for 10 consecutive day, towing a ship of much larger tonnage, deeply laden, and in a great manner unmanageable. The entire complement of the brigantine is eight persons, and that of the schooner the same; and the conduct, skill, and energy of both masters and their limited crews under such difficult circumstances is highly creditable to the character of the British mercantile marine. RE WARDS TO FIREMEN. On Wednesday afternoon Mr. Cornewall Lewis was waited upon at the Home-office by a deputation of the officers of the parishes of St George-the -Martyr, Southwark, Bermondsey, St. Saviour's, Christ Church, Spitalfields, St. Andrew's and St. Georges Holborn, St. Luke, St. Pancras, and Marylebbne, who presented a memorial requesting the interference of the Government to prevent the unnecessary expense to which the ratepayers were put by the present sys tem of rewards to the keepers of the •engines which were called to a fire. The memorial urged that'the Act 14th George 111. empowered the parochial offi cers to provide parish engines, and the 76th section of that Act provided " that the keeper of such parish engines as should arrive earliest •at a fire should re ceive 305., the second 20e, and the third 10s. and the turneock should rece i ve 10 s ., suc h rewards to be paid by the churchwardens or overseers, with the consent of one or more justices of the peace." At the time of the passing of this Act there were but few insurance companies; and consequently it was eminently useful in its operation; hut now a great number of insurance companies exist who are deeply interested in the protection of pro perty, and the ratepayers ought now to be relieved from the burden of paying these rewards. The in surance companies permit their paid servants to claim these rewards, and their firemen are generally . in attendance before the parish engine keepers. The whole of the Act 14th George 111., except that Sec tion referring to fire-engines, had been repealed by the Act 7th and Bth Victoria, and it was humbly submitted that the remaining section ought to be repealed also. Several of the members of the depu tarion urged at length the evils arising from the pre sent system. In some cases the parties whose pre mises suffered injury repaid these rewards to the parish ; but in poor localities the burden fell on the ratepayers generally ; and even though the fire might be only in a chimney, or of so alight a nature as to do only a few shillings' worrh of damage, it was sure to cost the parish 31. or 41.• The average of these payments, taken for five years showed that the parish of Marylebone paid 3001. yearly in rewards-; Bermondsey, 671. ; St. Pancras, 23/. ; St. George's, Southwark, 481.; and the united parishes of St. Andrew's, and St. George's, Holborn, 091. Many frivolous claims were preferred. Mr. C. LEWIS said that the case had been very clearly presented to him, and he would premise that it should be carefully considered. He would take care to communicate with Sir G. Grey, who was at that time out of town ; and no doubt the Right Hon. Gentleman would give it his best attention. Cir cumstances had no doubt altered since 1774, when this Act was passed, and a greater burden was* thrown upon the parishes, except in the case of St. Pancras, where it appeared the authotities had some power to protect themselves. The deputation, which was headed by Alderman .lumphory, M.P., then withdrew. RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS. BRISTOL, Maio! 28.

Ronconi at 15,000 f. for the season, with a benefit. On Saturday the sth January Ronconi caused Morelli's be nefit to be announced for Monday the 7th. Morelli went to the rehearsal on that afternoon, but at 5 o'clock Morelli no tified to Roneoni that he was unable to sing. Notwithstand ing this Ronconi made no change in the performances, and at half-past eight in the evening he announced to the public that Morelli had just informed him that ho was unable to. appear. This caused a storm of disapprobation, and Morelli was severely attacked in the theatrical journals. Thinking thrt Ronconi had acted in this way to injure him in public estimation, Morelli yesterday brought an action against him before the Civil Tribunal and the Tribunal condemned Ron coni to give •a new benefit to Morelli, and to announce it, in accordance with the usual custom, five days in advance, or in default, to pay I,ooof. ; it also condemned Ronconi to pay Morelli 2,000 t. damages.— Galignani.
