AYR, NOV. 7.

" I,4st night it bleW a tremendOus gale from the W.
and N. W. with the heaviest fall of rain, at times)
ever known in this country. About noon, this day,
the Sloop George and Sophia, NIA. Lcoi.:4 Most iioN
master, from' Belfast to Greenock, with linen and
butter, appeared in the Bay,shaving lest her main-
sail, boom, and gaff, in the- preceding gales, and
run for this Harbour, where the immense rush of
water from the river, swollen by the previous pro-
digious fall of rain,— cast her 'unfortunately behind
the North Quay.,
From this perilous situation, five brave seamen,
featless of danger, set off in a boat for their relief,
viz. David Hurd, mate of the Ship I:lQra, James
Anderson, John Meek, Peter Anderson, and John
Mackenzie ; when, melancholy to relate, a prodi-
gious.sea struck the Boat, and oversetit, by which
the three first were unfortunately drowned. Peter
Anderson, by getting hold. of the bottom of the
Boat, and John. Mackenzie, by means of an oar,
kept themselves afloat, till a second boat with sea-
men equally despising danger, went boldly to their
assistance, and brought them safe off, viz. Captain
William Lawson, Hugh Parfet, M. Lyon, -James
Hume, Joseph Paton, and two whose names are
not known. 'The Sloop has since been brought into
the. Harbour, but full of water.

of Dunglass, and Mr.. MAITLAND, of Balgreggiltl,
Who, by accident, were - witnesses of the tragic
scene, and of the noble exertions of the last Boat's
Crew, for the relief of their Brethren and preser-
vation of the Sloop, after generously rewarding the
