DISAXTERS NEAR MILFORD HAVRS.-1 Later
dated Saturday says :—" Yesterday and to-day we wen
visited with one of the mod fearful plea I ever remember
witsosing, and many fatal casualties have, I fear, occurred
as our coast. Numbers of seeds have pined the shelter.
log protection of the haven, and about six hundred as
now there, safe from the violence of the storm. Thine
unfortunate vessels, however, in striving to reach it, sank
in the very sight of the haven, and no human aid could
be given them. The sea ran mountains high, and over-
whelmed them in • moment. They went down suddenly
as they stood, with all hands on board, and not a ves-
tige of wreck save • small bucket has come oe shore to
tall us their name or port. These melancholy wrecks hap-
pened between 10 and 11 o'clock this morning, and the
three easels foundered within a short distance of each
other. The first was • large brigantine, with painted
ports ; she ensued a fine ship, and was well handled,
but neither skill nor bravery availed to save her. The '
mighty waters poured down upon her, and she soak like
lead a little distance from the Turbot-beak, with all
hands. The seemed was • brig, apparently about 200
tons burden, and she bad • narrow punted white streak
around her sides. She foundered shortly after the b4an-
tine, and close to the Lewis Rock. MI hands perished.
A bucket has Joel been picked up with 'Mayflower' painted
on it. I think it belonged to this brig. The third was •
large bark, having • broad wide streak and painted
ports. She pliantly bore up to the harbour, and, could
she but have reached its friendly shelter, would have been
saved. But a little outside the harbour rock several tre-
mendous seas broke over her, from which she Dever reco-
vered. As she went in by the Lewis Rock the water was
high ma her decks, up to the rails. Still she drove on till
she reached the harbour buoy, and then •trsrssdously heavy
sea broke high over her, right astern, and ease down upon
her with thundering violence. liar bow neverapin see, and
in • minute or so the hapless bark went down Mad-fees•
mod, with all bands on board. We have sot yea beard of
• single body washed ashes, bed that era of the de►oted
crews of either of the three vessels amid have seeped
with life is next to impossible. Perhaps the lafeemation I
have riven may sufficiently distinguish the vessels, or that
they may be rexignisoil by the owners or Shen ens eeted
with them. Such persons will doubtless know about what
point their vessels would be at this zaandag. and if outlay
cal read their sad fate in the record above."-

THE CONDEMNED ffioaDaaas —lt will be remem-
bered that • short time back a young man, named George
Inkpen, was convicted of the murder of his sweetheart by
drownieg her in the Surrey Canal, the intention of the
parties having, no doubt, been to destroy themselves by
suicide. The prisoner has been respited during her Ma-
jesty's pleasure.—The prisoner William Malony, who was
convicted of the murder of hie wife in Westminster, and
Richard Reeve, the boy who killed his sister in Drury.court,
also remain in Newgate, awaiting the decision of the go-
vernment as to what will be their fate, both having been
respited during her Majesty's pleasure.
