Loss OF A LARGE LIVERPOOL SHIP.—NOBLE
LIFEBOAT SERVICE.—AnKLOW, IRELAND, Dee.
27th.—I have to report (says Dr. L'Estrange) the loss of
the ship Tenasserim, of Liverpool, Captain Hewson, bound
from Liverpool to Calcutta. She stranded on Arklow
Banks on the 25th inst., but owing to a fog she was not
seen until yesterday morning, when the lifeboat Arthur
Vonables, of the National Lifeboat Institution, was at
once launched, and was happily the means, under Provi-
dence, of rescuing 31 poor fellows who had taken to the
forelopsail yard for safety. Before the arrival of the life-
boat two sailors had unhappily been washed overboard
and drowned.

THE ABANDONMENT OF THE WEST INDIA TRADER
JAMES LAMB.—The ship Queen of the South,
Captain Wilkin, which has arrived in St. Katherine's Docks
from Algoa Bay, reports having fallen in with a valuable
prize at sea, the British bark James Lamb, bound to Liver-
pool from Demerara, with a cargo of rum, sugar, cotton,
and merchandise valued at many thousand pounds, which
had been abandoned by the crow. Great anxiety, how-
ever, is felt for the safety of the chief officer and six of the
hands of the Queen of tho South, who volunteered to go
on board the abandoned ship with a view of bringing her
on to England. The James Lamb was sighted on the 4th
instant, her position being more than 1,000 miles
from the chops of the Channel. On a boat's crew
from the Queen of the South boarding her it
was found that the hands had left her, and the
ship was nearly half full of water. She appeared, how-
ever, in ve►y good condition, and after some consideration
the chief officer and five of the crew of the Queen of the
South volunteered to take charge of the abandoned vessel
for the purpose of navigating her home. They accordingly
took possession of the vessel and made sail, the Queen of
the South keeping company as long as possible. Towards
midnight a heavy gale came on from the S.W., with a very
heavy sea. The weather continued to increase in severity,
and by the morning the Queen of the South had lost sight
of her prize. She hove to for some time, but nothing could
be seen of the James Lamb. It is hoped, however, that
she succeeded in weathering the gale. Should she be got
safely into port the six brave hands on board of her, as
also others of the crow of the Queen of the South, and the
owners, will be entitled to a handsome amount of salvage.
The crew of the James Lamb were taken off by a passing
ship, and have since arrived.
SUICIDE OF A SEA CAPTAIN.-011 Saturday an
inquest was held in High-street, Whitechapel, on
the body of Captain William Sandey, aged 50 years. Ou
Tuesday deceased was found lying on tho floor of his
bedroom, in a coffee-house in nigh-street, his throat dread-
fully cut, and quite dead. For some days previously ho
had manifested signs of insanity, consequent, it was
thought, on heavy losses in speculation. The jury returned
a verdict of suicide while of unsound mind.
