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; 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 GO packages of valu able manufactured goods, which were conveyed safely on board the Elizabeth ; but in this effort het boat was st ave d. H app il y , a ll t hi s t i me t h e brig antine was stanch, or she must have gone down, 83 the men could not have stood at the pumps in. such weather. The towropes were two 7-inch and one 4-inch warp, about 100 fathoms long, fastened to the windlass of th e sc h ooner an d to the windlass b'ts, of the bri gan ti ne . Wh en t h e E l i zabeth commenc ed 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 had to beat to windward fur 10 consecutive den towing a ship of much larger tonnage, deeply WV' , and in a great manner unmanageable. The entire complerßent 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 th e B r iti s h me rcantile marine. RE WARDS TO FIREMEN. On Wednesday afternoon Mr. Cornewall Lewis wa s 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. George's Holborn, St. Luke, St. Pancras, and Marylebonef 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 effi' cers to provide parish engines, and the 76th section of that Act provided cs that the keeper of such parish engines as should arrive earliest at a fire should re' ceive 305., the second 204., and the third 103., and the turncock should receive 10s., such rewards to be paid b Y the churchwardens or overseers, with the consent don e 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; but now a great number of insurance companies exist who are deeply interested in the protection Of P"; 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 Salem are generanY attendance before the parish engine keepers. Th e whole of the Act 14th George M., except, that sec tion referring to fire-engines, had.been repealed by the Act 7th and Bth Victoria, and it was humbil submitted that the remaining section ought to be repealed also. Several of the members of the depu tation 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 fir e might be only in a chimney, or of so slight a nature as to do only a few shillings' worth of damage , .it was sure to cost the parish' 31. or 41. T h , e , average of these payments, taken for five years show ed that the parish of Marylebone paid 3001. yearly 1 , 14 rewards ; Bermondsey, 67/. ; Sr.' Pancras, 231. ; S' George's, Southwark, 481.; and the united parishe? of St. Andrew's, and St. George's, Holborn, 3 91 Many frivolous claims were preferred. Mr. C. LEWIS said that the case had been vet/ 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 non. Gentleman would give it his best attention. Cif' 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 Humphery, M.P., then withdrew.

Morelli, of the Italian Theatre, was engag ed by M. Ronconi at 15,000 f. for the season, with a benefit. On Saturday the sth January Ronconi caused Morell i'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 tided to Roneoni that he was unable to sing.
