frees a watery grave. As it is, the wrack is one which will
Lug be remembered, as well from the fearful amociations with
WM& it is coassated as from the loss of life with which it
was accompanied. It was net until a late hour on the
evening of Wednesday that anything like an accents eel-
miletion of the numbers lest could be made, and then the
erns that presented itself was sufficient to sepal the stoutest
Mart. An eyewitness states that the sufferings of the poor
survivors and their grief were truly hos:trendies. Permits
without their children—ehildren without their pomace—
many without clothes, and, with very few exceptions, all
were wholly destitute their little offsets having been en-
tirely lost, and all the resources they possessed in the
deep. The inhabitants of Killen were very anions on the
envision; every on. did what lay la his power to relieve
those who were saved. Wave after wave, however washed
ashore the bodies of the dead, sad augmented ski horrors
and mos, of the Nene. Every house in Rilkeit wee no-

village wen put in immediate requisition. Dr. Griffis
spared no exertioss, &either did several others. The vessel
eontained 216 passengers, including the crew, of whom 96
were lat. The moment the intelligence reached Limerick,
effective steps were at once taken to provide for the require-
ante of the sufferers. At the Limerick Corporation, e
subscription was at nee raised, to which all the members of
that body readily contributed. Collectors were also appointed
to go through the city for the purpose of obtsiaias mossy;
and in the nuns of a few hours upwsrels of 1401. ware
collected. The utmost cheerfalasm wee snail, sold on the
occasion. We should state that the Edmond was
chartered by Jolts M'Donnell, Esq., T C., of Limerick—
that her impede, Mr. Wilson, is a first class seaman, and
that the crew behaved admirably. The poor carpenter, a
satin of 'Amnion, named Finn, lost his lila in endeavouriug
to sees the pareagen. The crew consisted of 14 ann. The
harbour commiseitherr, headed by the chairman, Fronde
Spaight, gave M. Amounts state that tea other vessels left

there has ben no nonint. We have to report the miming

time the Oesaint left the sea was nannies so high no boat

ashore on the liked opposite Rilrash in the Minoan, bound
from Waterford so Limerick with barley for Mr Tomas.
Edina' Limerick; all safe. Six vessels sailed from Fal-
mouth, Principally foreign vessels, on Monday week, for
Limerick, none of which have been heard of.
On the same night another ship, ladea with emigrants
bowed for New Orleans, was totally lost oa the Blackwater
Bank, along with three other vessels, laden wi'h cargoes of
the value of 3.5,0001. The emigrant ship was an American
named the Adeline, lest from Liverpool, with, it is said, &A
passengers. She Mrs* es the sestkead of the shoal. Her
siguale of distress were (middy perceived by the coastguard,
who, with the inhabitants, immediately put off in their
boats to the wreck, sad, by extraordinary exertion., they
succeeded in mein every soul. The ship, however, went to
pinta.
In the vicinity of the solemn of the Channel, Hate
espeeially on the Crieslah coast, the gale ocoraioned the most
severe lases. The pilots state that rougher weather had not
been ezperienoid there for 'onto time, end distressing as the
accounts may seen, it is feared that there are others equally
' as panful to be added to the list. Late on Wednesday night,
'the wind blowing heavily from the N.W., a flee react,
I milled the Queen, from Cardiff, was driven on the Paine&
brach, near Hoyle. The cries of the ill•fated Row were
heard from the oho-1, but the tempestuous state of the surf
enti-ely prevented the lifeboat being put off to their aid.
Bofors one o'clock the ship had disappeared amongst the
breaker, and the whole of her crew, is all about eight or
ten, noshed. Some of her papers and bulwarks were
washed ashore on the following day, and were taken pos-
session of by the coat guard. None of the brdi,s have
been cast up. Off Falmouth, Padstow, and Forman,
much injury was done to the coasters. Nansens, cant Is
wen almost engulfed in the surf; their decks were swept
and everything moveable carried away. The fins stemma

and unfortunately one of her was was crushed by the falling
debris. The steamer SOCCtildtd in nothing up &noel, and

The later accounts from the west coast speak of additional
wrecks by the prevalent* of the pies. Two vestals were
lost between Tanby and Saundenfoot. Near Fortssadoe her
were wrecked, and towards Milford similar eramahles
occurred.
It was on the w.st coast of Ireland, however, that the
