THE WRECK OF THE ROYAL CHAR7ER.

LATEST PARTICULARS.

MOBLVRA BAY, TCseDAY ATTERNOON.

Last night war a very boisterous one. The wea-
ther became wry wid in the aftermath, and at 7 In the even-
ing the wind rose and blew way stiffly. At about two this
morning • shower of very large hell/tour fell. There were
several loud peels of thunder, and some very vivid flashes of
lightning. It has rented heavily all this morning, and
blown a gale. There is a very heavy sea rolling in Motives
Bay, and the wand being westerly its Inclination is to carry
the wreck snow out from the shore. Sha has WA, however,
to ell appearance, been much, If anything disturbed. On
a day like this, if the weather continue as it is, the divers
can of tonne do nothing. They have not as yet succeeded
in bringing up anything but bees of copper. Strange to say,
though only 41 bodies out of nearly 600 have fleeted on chore
the divers have only met with one corpse below; and that
west° entangled In cordage that they were unable to make
oat what it was. It has, however, been driven ashore In the
parish of Penrhos-Cligny, that In which Mcielvra is situated.
It would be impeseible to speak in term, of too great praise
of the conduct of the Rev. Mr. Hughes, the rector
of Llanaltgo, the parish adjoining that in which
the wreck took place. Mr. Hughes, his amiable lady,
and her sisters, the Mimes Mouledale, have been inces-
sant in their exertions to comfort the poor shipwrecked pas-
sengers who have escaped from the wreck, and to assuage
the anguish of those who have lost relatives. The manner
In which their kin loess and hospitality have been displayed
is as remarkable for its genuine earnestness as for its
thoroughly homely character. Mr. Hughes's church ie
' nearer to the wreck than that of Penrhat-Cligny, and
most of the bodies which have been cast ashore have come
within and been buried In Llanaltgo pariah. His house
has been an open one for the last six or seven days, and
he and his family have not had an entire night's rest since
the wreck. Seven bodice lay in Llenaltio church to-day,
when the coroner for Anglesey, Mr. W. Jones, arrived.
Five of them are thew of men, one that of • woman, and
the remaining one that of an infant. All are mutilated, the
woman and child frightfully eo. Mr. Jones held a pro
forest itqueet on them. There was no one present to iden-
tify them. The coiner made an order for their interment.
The following lea specimen of some of the communications
which come front poor mothers :
Deer Sir,—l beg to state my eon has been in Australia
eight you'd, sad, according to his lest letter, I might expect
him bows about this time. I feel very unhappy, fearing,

be one of those dear sufferers of this dreadful wreck. Per-
haps whet makes me more impressed it, that on that fearful
night I dreamed. I don't know where I wen, but a man cams
