—LirraoAy MERVICIOL—CCLLEECOATS, NORTHr3I-
- MAT 3.—Yesterday afternoon three of our fiebing
rubles were overtaken by • heavy squall, and the am
breaking across the bar rendered it very dangerous for them
to cross Tynensouth Haven. The Perry new lifeboat, be.
longing to the National Lifeboat Institution, was iinall-
diately launched, and proceeded through the heavy breakers
to their help. Encouraged by the presence of the lifeboat,
the coble erew eo•teoded manfully with the elements, and,
being escorted by the lifeboat, they afterw►rds succeeded in
reaching the port in safety. It is now blowing a perfect
gale from the northeast. There are several ships upon the
coed, awl the night has a dirty look. Last February this
valuable lifeboat was the means, under the most perilous
circumstances, of rescuing five out of six of the crew of the
schooner Lovely Nelly, of Seaham, which, durum one of
the beeriest plea that was ever experienced on this coast,
w•a wrecked off Callercoats.

ArND TIM AMLRICiIf
—The Government Emigration Commissioners at Liverpool
have just completed the emigration returns from the port
of Liverpool fur the prasent month, and from these figures
we glean the fact that the American crisis has evi-
dently curbed the western exodus, and striped for • while
the tide of emigration from Liverpool to the United States,
though possibly it may escape and diverge into other
channels, and find its way ultimately to Canada Of
Australia. That such a decrease should bare taken place
eves before any great •' events" had occurred in the United
States is indicative of a foregone oonchision on the part of
those remaieing in Ireland to follow the example of their
more fortunate countrymen, and shun the more crowded
ports of America for the noes gang and prosperous shone
of Australia, to which there appease to be a ds►iethag
tendency of those who hays the mesas aid courage to seek
fortune by energy and esterwies.
