DREADFUL SHIPWRECK.—On Friday morning
last, the 2oth inst., during the terrific gale, a large brig was
descried drifting fast on to the rocks in Freshwater West
Bay, and about 9 o'clock, a.m., the ill-fated vessel struck on
a reef of rocks 200 yards from the shore, and in less than
three minutes she was in fragments, and the crow struggling
in the foaming waves, without apparently the least chance
of their being saved. At last poor fellow was seen in the
surf with two large demijohns, or bottles, for a life buoy,
drawing near the shore, when Mr. George Young, of Hub-
berton, who was on the spot, rushed down the steep preci-
pice alone, and plunged into the foaming waves, at the im-
minent peril of his life, and succeeded in saving the poor
fellow more dead than alive, and much cut and bruised,
placed him on a roek, and put his coat round his naked body
until other aid came, when Mr. Mark Roch, of Pennyholt,
took the poor fellow on his back, and with other assistance
carried him up the cliff, whence he was taken to Gupton,
where, it is needless to say, he was treated with great kind-
ness and sympathy. He proved to be the captain of the
ship. When all the others were supposed to be lost, and
at least half an hour had elapsed, Mr. R. Williams, of Gup-
ton, saw another poor fellow struggling on the rocks, and
pointed him out to Mr. Mark Roch, who, with his usual
daring, rushed to his rescue, and saved him from a watery
grave, although sadly bruised and cut about the legs, arms,
and bowels. He carried him with assistance up the cliffs,
and took him also to Gupton, where he was also cared for,
and is now quite recovered. One of the other bodies has
since been found, washed on the shore. The vessel turned
out to be the French brig La Force, from Swansea, with
coal to Senegal, River Gambia, coast of Africa, with a crew
of nine men, two only of whom live to relate the melancholy
tale. We hope the conduct of Messrs. Young and Rock
will meet the reward they so justly merit in saving the lives
of their fellow creatures at the peril of their own, and we
believe this is not the first time we have had to mention 11r.
Young as being instrumental in saving lives from ship-
wreck.—.Pembrokeskire Herald.
A POACHER DENIED THE PRIVILEGES OF TUE
CHURCH.—Some few years ago, say the elyr Express, an
individual in Galloway was apprehended and brought before
the Justine Court at Stranraer, on a charge of killing game.
He was sentenced to a period of imprisonment for the
offence, an underwent the sentence. Since his release he
applied to the minister of the parish in which he resides for
baptism to his child. The rev, gentleman peremptorily re-
fused to administer the ordnance fo: the very strange rea-
son that the landed proprietors of Galloway had suffered
great loss from time to time, through the applicant's
destroying their game.
