Shipping Disasters at Liverpool.

Yesterday morning a smart gale blew over Liverpool from
the north-west, and was unfortunately attended with serious
accidents, The storm was particularly severe at the mouth
or the river, and in the channels approaching thereto. A
schooner named the Happy Return, from Dublin to Liver-
pool, in endeavouring to enter the river was driven into the
north-east end of the turbo bank about 4 o'clock in he
morning. The captain's wire, and three of the crew were
washed overboard by the heavy seas that broke over her.
The Cunard steamer British Queen, Captain Kelly, from
Havre to Liverpool, was passing at the time, and the cap-
tain, observing the distress of the schooner, ordered a boat
to put out to her. A boat, stated to be a lifeboat, was
lowered, and manned by six men, under the command of
Mr George Morrison, the second t facer. In endeay..urin,g
to approach the vessel the boat was struck by a heavy sea,
capsized, and five of her crew drowned:. Mr Morrison and
the other seaman were saved by another boat irom the Bri•
tish Queen. In the meantiir e information wire received at
one of the Liverpool lifeboat stations, and a boat imme-
diately put out and succeeded in reacnin,g the wreck, and_
rescuing the captain and one seam an still remaining on
board. Many other vessels have sta.atkairAtad itljurits to hull
and rigging, but no further fatal casualties were reported.
The wind continued very rough until about neon, 11 hen it
began'to moderate. The following report of the occurrence
was posted in the Underwriters' room curing the day :
" Tire British Queen, screw steamer, Kelly, irons Havre,
when coming in this morning, saw the schooner Happy
Return run on the north-east side of the Burbo. the
steamer stopped by h. r and lowered a boat to save the crew,
nut it did not succeed in getting to the wreck. They then
lowered a second and larger boat, which gut to the Happy
Return, after great risk, and while tatting the crew nom
her, as they jumped from the wreck in to the water, the rope
attached to part of the wreck broke, anti in veering the boat
round towards the steamer she was struck by a heavy sea,
which flied and capsized her, drowning five of the seven
men from the steamer, who manned her, and two of the
Happy Return's crew." Owing to the state of the
weather the Royal Mersey Regatta did not take place,

IMPORTANT FOP SKIN DISEASES.—The perfumed
iuiptturous soap which is prepqre.d by M. Motlard,
of Regent-street, is really worthy of the attention of those
troubled with any cutaneous eruptions or rheumatic affec-
tions. This sulphur soap is highly recommended by the
i'aeuity, both as a remedy and as a preventative. The
cull y hitherto has been to combine sulphur with vegetable
oils; this difficulty has been entirety overcome by
Mollard, and he has produced a perfumed curative soap
with all the requisite medical qualities, and well adapted to
•he toilet table of the most fastidtous, M. Mallard bas also
published a practical essay on his preparations, Which may
read with interest and profit, containing, as it does, the
opinion of the most eminent of the feculty in sulphur, as
deed for the many forms of cutaneous eruptions to which
he "flesh is heir
