After several unsuccessful attempts t go directly of
to the buoys, which had been thrown overboard, the
boatmen rowed for some distance to the southward
and sailed down upon them. The spectators seemed
to be relieved to some extent when they saw that the
line attached to one of the buoys had been got at,
and that the boatmen were drawing themselves by
means of it towards the vessel. At length they
reached her side, and when all were safely in the
boat the cheer again rose, and was responded to on
the shore, A few moments brought all safely to
land. We hardly know in what manner to express
our admiration of the manner in which the life-boat
was managed yesterday forenoon ; and we trust tha
some substantial mark of gratitude will show that
the public are not insensible to the claims of men
who volunteer to sutler and to hazard their own lives
that they may rescue their fellow-men from the brink
of destruction. As regards the vessels and their ma-
nagement, it is a different question. Where the
poor men have suffered so much we would not wil-
lingly say anything to their discredit; but we
cannot help thinking that, instead of being wrecks on
our beach, they might have been, with very little ad-
ditional exertion, lying in safety in our wet dock.—
Montrose Standard of Tuesday.

" The directors have not thought it advisable to
recommend, in this report, any plan for adoption ;
yet they are prepared to receive suggestions as to the
future course to be pursued.
" To arrive at a sound opinion upon this question,
it will be proper to take into view that, during the
liquidation of the debts, the affairs of the bank• have
been so conducted as to leave unimpaired the legal
existence of the company ; and as the bank was es-
tablished under the original law; the late enactment
restricting the privileges of joint-stock banks does
not apply to this company, and therefore the advan-
tages attached to it should be considered as an avail-
able property, which, if judiciously used, might give
an increased value to the shares therein. But this
value (whatever it may be) appertaining to its legal
position, can only be realised by adopting some plan
for reviving the business of the bank, either for ac-
count of the present proprietors, or by some other
party, who may become their successors.
" The directors who retire from office, by rotation,
are Messrs. George Boyle Chappell, Joseph C. Dyer,
and John Gouldsborough. They will be proposed
for re-election.
