THE LATE GALES.

On Friday afternoon the Government steamer
Medusa, 889 tons, 320 horse-power, Master Corn
mending J. H. Allard, arrived in Great Yarmouth
roadstead, and anchored off the Britannia pier.
After receiving on board two experienced masters
of smacks and a North Sea pilot, the Medusa was to
start on a cruise in the North Sea and to the mouth
of the Elbe, in search of the missing smacks, 13 in
number. The gunboats attached to the Pembroke
at Harwich, and the Cornwallis at Hull, are also
expected on the same service. Reports of a most
contradictory nature prevail with reference to the
missing smacks ; but as 17 or 18 days have elapsed
since the gale, but little hope is entertained as to
the safety of the 91 men and boys on board.
Late en Saturday night a portion of the passen-
gers and crew of the bark Prince Frederick William,
347 tons, were landed at Dover, and are now at the
Siilors' Horne. The bark was beund from New.
castle to the coast of Malabar,and in the North Sea
became so damaged that she was taken in tow by
another vessel, from welch she parted company,
leaving the mate and four men on board the vessel
which had her in tow. The only hope for the Prince
Frederick 'William is that, notwithstanding her
crippled state, she may be able to make either Yar-
mouth or the Downs. At 11 o'clock on Saturday
night eight men of the Swedish brig Mory
,Svere
were landed at Dover. This vessel became water-
logged off the Texel in a heavy gale. One man
was drowned; the remaining portion of the crew
were picked up by a Dantsic brig, and are now in
a very destitute condition at the Sailors' Home.
There is every reason to believe that there are
several vessels knocking about the North Sea in a
disabled condition. The following laden collier
vessels have sailed from the Tyne nearly a month
—The Spray, the James, the Quayside, the Brod-
ricks, the Lady Mary, and the Esther. Of the
safety of soma of those laden collier vessels there
are scarcely any hopes. In fact, it is almost certain
that some of them have foundered and drowned
their crews. It is fully anticipated that there will
be a considerable loss of Tyne seamen in the late
gales. Some of the crews of vessels that are known
to be lost have suffered very much from exposure.
One man belonging to the Ganges, which became
waterlogged on her passage from the Baltic,
perished from the effects of the cold, and the re-
mainder 'of the crew were exposed to the fury cf
the gale without food or drink 48 hours before they
were rescued. The north-east gale of Thursday was
very violent in the North Sea. The other steam-
ship which arrived in the Tyne to-day was obliged
to lie for thirteen hours, in consequence or
the force of the storm. The only casualty
that occurred upon the Northumberland coast was
at Amble, where a Scotch vessel, the Cygnet, of
Aberdeen, drove ashore. All the crew but the mate
were rescued by the coastguard. He was washed off
the rigging and drowned. The vessel is completely
broken to pieces.
