LIFEBOAT SERVICES.

NEWBIGGIN, NORTHUMBERLAND,
THURSDAY NIGHT.

I have the pleasure of reporting another very
pliant service of our lifeboat (says the Bev. E. N. Macgin).
About 5 o'clock the. morning, a vend was discovered on the
rocks at Spital Point, about a mile to the south-west
of Newbiggiu ; she proved to be the brigantine Neptune,
325 tons, from New York, bound to Grangemouth, N. 8.,
and laden with petroleum. The morning was very dark
and the master appears not to hays seen the lights, owing
to the fog over the land. The ship struck the rocks at
about 2 o'clock in the morning, but the signals of aim-
kegs were not observed till 5 o'clock. The lifeboat
of the National Lifeboat Institution was launched with
the utmost promptitude, and succeeded in rescuing the
seater and eight men forming the crew and bringing them
safely to land. There was a heavy sea on, and there was
great danger from the number of rocks surrounding the
ship, tendering approach rather hazardous. There is no
hope of saving the yowl, as she is full of water.

HAUX LEY, NORTHUMBERLAND, Taull-SDAT NIGHT.
1 have to inform you (reports Mr. E. Whitfield) that
• schooner called the Tom Criegle, of fume, port of
Wick, 94 tone register, John Calder master, laden,
from &Ahem, bound to Aberdeen, came on shore upon Bon-
dicer Rocks, a very dangerous locality, about half a mile
B.E. of the Hauzley Lifeooat House' early this morning.
The wind at the time wu blowing strongly from the south,
the weather was foggy, and there was • heavy sea running.
Torch lights were oburved by the Hensley fisherman, and
the lifeboat of the National Lifeboat lestitution was at once
Lunched, sod soon reached the vessel. The crew of three
men were takes one immediately and brought on there in
safety. The vessel is likely to become • total wreck.
