THE AUSTRIAN REICHSRATH.

VLEINA, Nov. 26.

The draft of the address of the Lower House of
the Reichsratb, in reply to the speech from the throne, re-
grets the interruption of constitutional activity in some
portions of the empire. It expresses a wish that the
Croatian and Hungarian Diets may be convened after the
close of the session, and hopes that the Lombardo-Venetian
and Gelician Lista will likewise soon be assembled. The
address regards the re.eriablishment and consolidation of •
lasting peace as the unalterable determination of the
government. It confidently believes that the government,
co-operating with the German Confederation, will mist
the duchies in fully obtaining their rights in the
succession question, and in effecting an independent settle-
ment of their own affairs. The Reichsrath will gladly hail
all efforts on the part of the government to oppose asps-
ratist tendencies adverse to the interests of the German
Confederation, and any endeavours tending to strengthen,
by Federal reform, the bond between the German States.
The iteieberath hopes that the exceptional circumstances
necessitating the proclamation of • state of siege in Galicia
will shortly disappear. The address asks for • reduction in
the military and naval expenditure. It then declares that
• law establishing ministerial responsibility is urgently
seeded to complete the Austrian constitution. In conclusion
it expresses hopes that the inconveniences aimed by the
failure of the commercial negotiations with Prussia will be
lessened by the proposed modifications in the customs tariff.
The discussion of the address in full sitting will commence
on Tuesday next.

THE GALL- IMPORTANT LIFEBOAT
SERVICES.

WLNTERTON, pr,Aa GREAT YARMOUTH,
Nov. 27.

The Rev. J. Nelson reports::—" The brig John,
of Hartlepool, drove on shore during the night of the 24th
inst, in a violent gale from the E.S.E. She was discovered
at daylight with the sea running over her and the crew in
the rigging. The coastguard immediately proceeded so her
with the rocket apparatus. The National Institution's
lifeboat was also manned by the beachmen and launched,
and was fortunately the means of rescuing the crew of six
men from their perilone position. The lifeboat behaved
well, and the crew express great oonfidsnce in her."
DUNDEE, Nov. 23.
A vessel was reported to be on shore this mornieg (says
James: blunter, jam, Esq.), while the sea was running very
heavar. is soon as the crew of tho Droughty Ferry (the
Mary Hartley) lifeboat of the National Institution were In-
formed of this they immediately launched the lifeboat and
proceeded in tow of • steamer to the assistance of the crew
of the stranded vessel, but, unfortunately, they could Sod
no Uww of the ship. However, while they were on the
look-out they discovered the schooner David and John, of
Montrose, in distress. The schooner entered the Tay last
fight, and, when her crew of four men were rescued by the
lifeboat, she was riding at anchor at No. 2 buoy and was
rolling very much in the heavy surf, and it was feared she
would-go down. Indeed, a few hours after the crew were
taken off, the wreck lost her mast and diaappeared.
PADSTOW, CORNWALL, Nov. 26.
This morning (report* the Rev. Richard Tyacke), in a
N.W. gale a vessel was sighted off Trevose Head, making
for Padatow Harbour. The Padatow lifeboat of the Na-
tional Institution was launched with all possible speed to
bar aasistanoe. She was found to be the Elizabeth, of
Llanelly. Although not required to save the crew, she
remained in attsace on the vessel along with a six-cared
galley, taking the warps from the capstone of the Padstow
Harbour Association, and rendering assistance in pumping
out the veesel, and did not leave her until she was in • safe
position. The appliaoces of the Harbour Association were in
a great measure the means of saving the vessel. In the
meantime another vessel, the Marie Estella, of Nantes,
was seen running for the harbour, end the lifeboat's crew
remained in their position in readiness to render assistance,
but happily under the guidance from the shore of expe-
rienced persona belonging to the port, she entered the har-
bour in safety.

THE Tin:110E1B LEFTEOAT.—A new lifeboat bas im.
mediately been sent to l'ynemouth to replace the dis-
abled boat. The new lifeboat will probably be at Tyne.
this day (Monday). The National Institution has also sent
2GI. to the lifeboat crew for their gallant but unsuccessful
exertions on the night of the 25th inst. We may add
that the ease of the two noble fellows who unfortunately
perished by jumping out of the lifeboat on that awful occa-
sion will be considered at the next general meeting of the
National Lifeboat Institution. The two poor men hare un-
happily left two widows and nine children to lamest their
Ices.
