SCPPOSZD LOl3B OP A HARTLEPOOL VESSEL AND
ALL HANDL —Yesterday it was come*, reported in the
Hartlepoole that a sloop had been run down off Staithee,
on the Yorkshire coast, oa the night of Sunday last,
by a large foreign barque, which was going in a southernly
direction, and that al on board had perished. The
report also names the vessel as the Glance, of Hartlepool,
belonging to Mr. Smiley Huntley, shipchandler. Our cot.
respondent made every inquiry in the matter, and found
that Mr. Huntley had been apprised of the report. and bad
telepaphed to the harbour-master at Whitby to make
the aseeseary inquiries as to its authenticity. If, as
the report states, the crew had perished and the
/sell went down in the dead of the night, with only
the barque's crew to know its fate, it accounts for the
owner of the craft not receiving any particulars. Then
were only two hands on board the Chutes, Captain Clark
and his son, who belong to Lynn. The vessel wee laden
with freestone from Whitby, bound to HartJapooL Upte
the time of oar despatch leerily, Mr. Huntley had reeeived

is reported to have taken place at Statham, which is a few
miles from the poet. a little time would isseemerily elapse
