WRECKS ON THE NORFOLK COAST.

CAISTOB, GREAT YARMOUTH, JAN. 17.

During very stonily winds with snow storms
yesterday afternoon (states the Rev. G. W. Steward) a
vessel was observed coming up Hemsley Hole with colours
of distress in the rigging. She was making for the shore
at Scratby, but was signalled to keep away, and to take the
land at Caistor, which was the only place where it was
practicable for her to come ashore. The Birmingham No. 2
lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution, stationed
at Candor, was then got ready. The ship as she neared
the land appe..red to have sprung a leak, as the crew were
observed pumping. She came ashore nearly opposite this
place in the midst of a moat terrific sea, and the lifeboat
was at once launched, and, w,tL tLe assistance of a large
number of persona on the beach, she was hauled off in
spite of the terrible wind and weather, and the ship-
wrecked orew of five men were rescued from their perilous
position by the lifeboat in • comparatively short time.
The sea was breaking 20 feet high alongside the vessel. The
imasbguard had fired two rockets with the view of effecting •
communication with the ship, but had missed her. She was
the schooner Clyde, of Yarmouth, and was bound to that
port from the North with • cargo of coals, and she will
most likely become a total wreck.. The weather was ter-
rible.

This morning a coastguardman arrived from Yarmouth
with a message to the effect that a large ship was lying
at anchor in the breakers, off the South Danes, requiring
immediate assistance, and asking that the Caistor
lifeboat might he at once taken to her aid.
The coastguard had fired several rockets, which
had failed to reach the vessel. It was blowing a
very heavy gale of wind at the time with thick squalls
of snow. The beachmen at once mustered, and with the
assistance of the Scratby men, who had come over to
Caistor at daylight, the lifeboat was launched after very
hard work, and then proceeded in the direction of the
stranded vessel. Meantime it appeared that the Yarmouth
surf lifeboat, the Duff, which also belongs to the
National Lifeboat Institution, had gone out to the ship,
and with the assistance of • steam tug had got
her clear of the beach, and had safely taken her into
Yarmouth Harbour. After going through the breakers of
the Inner Barber Sand on her way, the Calder lifeboat,
on reaching Yarmouth, saw that the ship was in tow of a
steam tug, and therefore returned to windward in the
midst of the heavy gale and snowstorm. Mr. Matthew
Butcher also reports that the Yarmouth large lifeboat,
The Brave Robert Shedden, of the National Institution,
was also launched yesterday to • vessel on the Seratby
Sand, but it proved to he a wreck, with all the crew lost.
On returning she fell in with a vessel in distress that had
lost her mainmast, and was happily successful in taking
her into Lowestoft Harbour.

An American telegraph company is about to
establish a telegraphic communication between Canton
and Pekin, and the Russian government will establish •
telegraphic communication between Pekin and Irtuak, in
Siberia, and the mouth of the Amoor river in connexion
with the telegraph line between America and Russia.
Some idea of the importance of the line between Canton
and Pekin may be gathered from the population of some of
the places it will serve. The population of Canton is
1,000,000, of Hong-Kong 200,000, of Amoy 210,000, of
Foochow 1,200,000, of Ningpo 300,000, of Shanghai
2,000,000, of Nankin 400,000, and of Pekin 2,000,000.
