ANOTHER GALE AND 0.1114 T LOW OP
SHIPPINO.

SHIELDS, WIDNUDAY APTIZNOON.
The insurance associations of this and the neigh-
bouring north-west ports are in mseipt of tadalligemor from
their agents on the Norfolk and Suffolk comet, this morn-
ing, giving the details of another very mina loss of ship-
in the North Sea, which eooorred doing Sunday
night and Monday. A gale from the north-east bad. blown
with frightful fury on Sunday night along the nest de-
scribed, end It bad been gooompanW by blinding showers of
snow. A very coaaiderable den of laden vessels from the
north-east poets, on their passage to London, had reached
the neighbourhood of Yarmouth Roads at the time the
gale arose, end the destruction amongst them has been
MI serious. No less than eighteen vessels have been
helped into Lowestoft, with loss of authors, some with their
mats earned away, and many of them leaky. The Speck,
from Hartlepool to Exeter, lost a boy overboard in the gale;
and the master of the Competitor, of Ipswich. Mr. Jere-
miah Allen, was also swept out of his vessel, on Sun-
day night, and drowned. The Jens, of Ipswich, came
ashore on the beach on Sunday night, went to pieces, sad all
hands were drowned. The Orwell schooner, of Arbroath,
drove on the Newcombe Sands, end has become a wreck :
her mew were saved. And on Monday morning the brig
Pytho, of Whitby, was brought into Yarmouth by the Calder
Zile-boat, with her sails split, her anchors gone, and bar math
cut away. Several laden vessels have also been run down
and sunk by tight ships during the snowstorm. Thelma-
master steamship, trading between London and Middles-
brough, ran dose the Yana, of Exeter. but fortunately
=up the crew; and the schooner Quicksilver,' from
land to London, was ran down by the light brig
Jess, of the same place, and sank. The crew of the Quick-
silver got aboard the Jene, and have been landed at Yar-
mouth. The mate, Henry Grieves, was severely injured
daring the collision, end has been removed to the • infir-
man. Yawls in point of fact, are crowding into all the
ports along the line of coast, dameged and crippled by the
effects of the gale, which all the mariners that were oat at
sea agree was one of the most fearful that has been expe-
rienced during main years. It was leas violent on the
north-east coast, bat the snow shower were very blinding,
and great fears are entertained that more vessels have been
run down than are yet accounted for. The storm had gems
on accompanied with thunder and lightning. The weather
is mild on the coast to-day, but old sailors state that *nether
fall of snow is Impending. The wind is about north.—Men-
theater Guardian.

RESIGNATION OP AN ARCHBISHOP.—The Primate
of All Ireland, the Most Ray. Lord John George Beeseford,
Archbishop of Armagh, habit:Mated his intention of retiring
from the active duties of hie diocese on amount of his great
age and increasing inermides. The venerable prelate, who
is the second son of the first Marquis of Waterford, was born
in Dublin in 1773, and was educated at Christ =
Oxford, where he graduated in 1793. He was ooe
Bishop of Cork in 1908, translated to Rocha in 1807, In
Clogher in 1819 to the Archbishopric of Dublin to 3690, and
to Armagh in 1810 (to which last the diocese of Clogher be-
came united under the provisions of the Church Temporalities
Act). The animal value is upwards of 14,0001. a year. The
archbishop will be succeeded in his primacy by the Right
Rev. Dr. J. T. O'Brien, 11i.6 of Oray, Tate, and
Leighton. The Ven. F. Goof MA., Arandenoon of
Raphoe, will be the new Bishop of Ossory.
TEM GLASGOW WESTERN BANK.—We ander-
stand that the call of 281. • share ha. been very generally
responded to, in a manner more satisfactory than had brew
expected. The sentence passed on the Royal British
Bank directors for issuing false balance-sheets, and their
personal liability for the amount of their shares to such
shareholders sa have been induced to purchase stock on
the faith of these fraudulent balance_sheete, mast
lodges very unsay sensations in the reloads of
those gentlemen who have held the office of directors in
the Western Bank for years past. Moreover it' la sow
held that those shareholders who have been so &shed are
not liable for calls, the Lord Chancellor on the 3rd Inst. re-
marking It certainly did, however, appear in the recent
men of the British Bank, which bad been referred to in the
arguments, that where persons bad been drawn into a con-
cern by false and fraudulent representations they were not
held liable. In that case the feud had been represented by
means of false reports and balance-sheets, the preparation of
the reports and 604Mo...sheets being the peculiar duty of
the directors, under the general act regulating joint-dock
companies,"—Olagow Daily Nail.
A JUDGE'I3 VISIT TO A COLLIERT.—On Monde
last, Mr. Baron Bramwell, accompanied by Mr. Pen
Vivian, Mr. B. Daniel, Mr. E. F. Daniel, and another
geatiseasa, paid a visit to the Ilynyddnewydd
near Swansea. His lordship appeared to take greet
interest in the works ; he went underground, dressed to
a collier's clothes (Mr. Dsnief a), walking through the
principal roads and examining the airways picking up
pima of slate as he went on, which he examined
minutely. His lordship was very callous to see the
tire-damp, but to the credit of the manager, Mr. Daniel
be it said, the works were so ventilated, that they were
unable to; dad any. His lordship then tried his hand at
cutting coml, to the great amusement of the company, bat
soon got tired, remarking that the coal was ver7 hard.
After remaining underground for about two hoar% but lord-
ship come out, and gave a sovereign tabs distributed amongst
the men, but at the suggestion of Mr. Daniel, he advised
than to procure books with it. Hie lordship then left, highly
gratified with his visit. and walked to Landon station, a die-
tance of about two miles.-Btoosass Roma
