THE GALE.

SHIELDS, Monday Night.

The weather all day has been squally, but, as the wind
has been WSW., the sea has been smooth on the bar, and
some laden ships have sailed to-day. There has been a con-
siderable arrival of light colliers. Freights to London range
from 6s 6d to 6s 9d, with a good deal of tonnage in the port.
The brig John and Isabella, which has arrived here light,
from Dieppe, reports that, when off Filey, that vessel came
in contact with the laden brig Gloriana, from Amble for
Rouen, coal laden. The John and Isabella's larboard bow
is stove in, and stanchions and bulwark carried away to mid-
ship. Four of the crew of the Gloriana got on board the
John and Isabella, and stated to the master of that vessel
that their ship was in a sinking state. Mr. Rowell, the
master, reports that he requested the master and crew of
the Gloriana to get on board his vessel, but the portion left
behind refused to do so.

TUESDAY, Noon.

After the despatch was sent off last night a storm warning
came from Admiral Fitzroy, and the night signals were
instantly hoisted. By 8 o'clock the squalls of wind from
W.S.W., which had been blowing all day, had increased
into a gale, and from half-past 10 it blew a perfect hurricane,
which raged until nearly midnight. As stated in the des
patch of last night, several ships put to sea yesterday
morning; one of them, a schooner, put back last night,
being unable to contend with the gale. She was brought
into harbour bya powerful tug, and moored at the new quay,
but when the gale came away with such fury at about 10
o'clock she dragged her two anchors and the powerful tug
hauling at her over a quarter of a mile towards the harbour's
mouth, and it was feared she would have drifted to sea, had
not two boats full of company boatmen put off to her assist-
ance and brought her into the Lowlights. A light vessel,
which was towing into the Tyne; by two steamers, was car-
ried by the force of the gale on to the Sand Point, where
she remained until this morning. The wind being off shore,
we have no disasters to record at sea, but the wellel which
put to sea yesterday in the face of the gale i probably
drive a couple of hundred miles out of their course, for there
is no chance of their getting hold of the land this morning,
as the wind is squally and wild in the exme

The wind, which for the last two days had been blowing
a moderate gale from the south-vast, increased to a hurri-
cane last night. Its violence continued from about 9 o'clock
last night till 2 this morning, when it moderated, and to-
day has been ca!ra, with the barometer at 30.15 and still
rising. A fleet of about 100 sail, which had brought up at
the entrance to the river, took their departure this morn-
ing,and greatth

from having broken their moorings. A large fleet of colliers
are known to be on their way to this port from the north,

The Hants Independent states that the remains
of an ancient ship are visible at low water in the river
Ramble, near the village of Swanwick, and are supposed
to be " one of a Danish fleet, which history records was
wrecked at that spot in Xing Alfred's time,"
