During the last days of February a hurricane of
unexampled fury raged oa the coasts of Holland
and North of Germany. On the night of the 27th,
a large ship with three masts was driven on shore
close to Shevemingen on the Dutch cont.: The
cries of the crew were heard alt night ; but the
violence of the storm was such, that it was impossi-
ble to venture to their relief, though the ship was
not more than a pistol-shot from the shore. At
eight next nsr.rning she went to pieces, and eight
men were seen to perish in the waves. bhe
was freighted with eight handfed pipes of
choice Bonrdeaux wine, on account of the
house of Couslere, Brands, and Co. of Am-
sterdam. The same morning, a ship, with two
masts, laden with corn and linen, bound lam Riga
to Antwerp, went ashore near the same place; and
on the 28th, a Schevening vessel, with six usher-
men cn beard, was er.gulphed by the billows, in
sight of the wives and children of the unfortunate
sufferer.. Not a man was saved from moors the
crews of all the three vessels.

The English tran port. the Doris, was lying at
anchor before Cuxhaven, ready to sail for England,
and waiting only for a far...livable wind. She was
drirvn on shore, on the 27th, near Olteird:Aff, with
the loss of her rudder, and has ssstained other col.
siderable damage. The whole of the crew wrre
saved, and are quartered, forth. present, at attrn-
dorff.

The town of Gluckstadt has bren a particular

subsistence cf that place, the aisala fishery, is is a

were stranded upon e rocks near Ssuckdinft.—
An English ship of st4r, oomroanded by Captos

sustained considerable snjury. The extent of the
losses of the trews is not yet known t but that of
two ships only, amounted to thirteen men. Six large
vessels will not be able to pat to sea this year, and
