LARGE SHIP RUN nosyy

On Tuesdaythe "i;e1;00J,;;" Tolin- .Morrison, of
Dublin, from Cardiff for Dieppe, brought into the
ROW'S the Captain and crew of the Swedish ship
Omen, of Gothenburg, which had been abandoned off
Portland. The Omen was • very fine ship, 1,115 tons
twister, and laden with guano from Pabillon di Pica,
Peru, to Leith, rice Falmouth. Her captain, H.
Ejsermann, had not been home for four years. The
vessel lately arrived in the Channel, and left Falmouth
on Monday; but about half-past five of the next
morning she came into collision with a Norwegian
brig, 30 or 40 miles to the southward of Portland.
The brig was damaged; but the Omen was so much
shattered that the crew abandoned her. They had
enough to do to save their lives, and the Captain lost
about £lOO worth of clothes, /cc., but managed to save
his log-book; the crew saved a portion of their clothes.
About half-peat ten on Tuesday morning they were
picked up by the schooner John Morrison; they
numbered 20, all told, in two of the ship's boats. The
captain came on to Weymouth, and Mr. C. F. Arden,
consul for Norway and Sweden, made arrangements
for the crew, who were next day to be brought to the
Sailors' Home, preparatory to being sent to their
'homes. It is believed that the vessel which ran down
the Omen was the Norwegian brig or barque Kaja.
She bore away, being herself, it was believed, seriously
damaged, and the Swede. were saved in their own
boats, whence they were picked up, as stated, by. the
John Morrieon- They were brought to Weymouth on
Wednesday morning, and lodged at the Sailor's Home.
The of the Ornem did not make a deposition
at the Custom House, this being a voluntary matter,
as she was a foreign ship. The captain of the John
Morrison reported that he was on his voyage from
Cardiff for Dieppe, when he saw • vessel with her
ensign flying ea in distress, about 25 miles S.W. of
Portland Bill. Bore down upon her, and found her to
be the Omen, of Gothenburg, for Leith. The master
of the Omen asked him to stand by him, which he
did from 6.30 to 9.30 a.m., when, there appearing no
chance of saving the ship, he took on bwrd the John
Morrison the master and crew of the Omen, 20 all
told, and brought them into Portland Roads on
Tuesday, and to Weymouth on Wednesday morning.
They did not SOO the vessel founder. However, Mr.
Smith, master of the ship Boadicea, from North
Shields for Palermo, came into Portland Roads on
Tuesday afternoon from straw of weather, and
reported that he had passed a large quantity of wreck,
In fact that his ship was among it some time. Among
It were pillows, with the white covers, cabin furniture,
! and other things, as if a large vessel had foundered;
but the weather was too rough for him to pick up any-
thing. The German brig Amicitia, Lucia, from
Hamburg for Port an Plate, reported having passed
a barque 12 miles E.S.E. of the Start Point, with her
bowsprit gone. The wreck is supposed to be that
which floated when the Omen went down, and the
banjue to be the Norwegian, with which she was in
collision. After receiving every kindness from Mr.
Crosby, at the Sailor's Home, they were sent to their
homes on Wednesday afternoon by Mr. R. Damon,
honorary agent of the Shipwrecked • ' Society.

THE BULGARIAN PEASANTS' RELIEF FUND. 1
The Rev. J. Stephenson, who has taken lip with very :
great interest the matter which is exciting all England at
the present time, on Sunday last devoted the offertory at
St. John's to the above fund, and in the evening preached
on the subject.
The rev, gentleman selected his text from Isaiah xxxii.

assurance for ever, and my people shah dwell in a
