ME LATE GALES.

THURSO, N. 8., Nov. 18.

While it was blowing hard last night with showers of
snow (says John Swanson, Esq.), the schooner Anna
Bervie of Lerwick brought up in the bay with sails split.
The lifeboat Polly of the National Lifeboat Institution
put off and took out the crew of five men and brought
them safely ashore.

MUNDESLEY, N ORFOLK, Nov. 18.

A number of small vessels were riding off hero on the
16th inst., when it suddenly came on to blow from the
E.N.E., a heavy sea also running in, which caused four of
them to part from their chains and drive ashore. As soon
as their perilous p3sition was seen the Mundesley old life-
boat went to the rescue, and succeeded in saving the lives
of nice men and two women from the rigging of the
stranded vessels, one man and ono boy having unfortu
nately perished by being washed overboard by the heavy
seas as the vessel drove ashore.

RAMSGATE, Monday Night.
About half-past six o'clock this morning signal guns and
rockets were fired from the North Sand Head and Gull
light ships. It was blowing strong at the time from
N:N.W. The lifeboat Bradford, of the National Lifeboat
Institution, immediately proceeded out, and was niet `by
the harbour steam-tug Aid, which took her in tow, and
proceeded direct for the North Sand Head, where a brig
was observed on shore on the high part of the sand. The
lifeboat was' towed to windward, and then bore 'clown
to the brig, which was observed to bo under water,
with a very heavy sea breaking over her.
The lugger Florence Nightingale, of Broadstairs,
was just leaving her, having succeeded with great
risk and skill in rescuing the crew of eight men, and a
quarter of an hour afterwaids the vessel turned over and
entirely disappeared. It is believed the lugger happened
to be near the brig when she got upon the Sand. As the
lifeboat left the wreck she observed the North Deal and
Walmer lifeboats, which belong to the National Lifeboat
Institution, approaching, when they were informed that
the crew of the brig wei e saved, and the lifeboats there-
upon returned. The vessel was the brig Joseph and
Elizabeth, of Whitby, bound from Shields to Dunkirk
with coals. When out at the Sand a large quantity of
spars and rigging was observed about a ,mile from the
wreck of the brig, supposed to belong to another vessel
lost during the night.

HASBOROUGH, NORFOLK, Nov. 17.

Intelligence was brought here last evening (reports the
Rev. J. Slater) that a vessel was ashore about two miles to
the south of this place. .The wind was blowingvery strong
at the time, bringing up a very heavy sea. The Hudders-
field lifeboat of the National Lifeboat Institution was
launched as soon as possible and proceeded to the wreck,
and effected a communication with her, but unfortunately
the crew, instead of taking the line, went aft, and the
lifeboat then drifted to leeward, and such was the strength
of the boiling tide that all efforts to pull back to the vessel
were unavailing; and the crew of the lifeboat were there-
fore obliged to take the boat back to land in order that
they might go along the shore and launch her again
to windward of the wreck. Meantime, however, before the
lifeboat could get afloat again the shipwrecked crew of five
men were fortunately got safely ashore by means of the rocket
apparatus. The vessel was the brigantine Amazon, from
Dunkirk. Immediately after this the crew of the lifeboat
heard that another vessel was ashore at Ostend • about a
mile and a half to the northward of Hasborough, and they,
therefore, hastened to convey the lifeboat thither, but be-
fore they could reach 'the scene of wreck the men heard
that the lifeboat, Recompense, of the National Lifeboat
Institution, stationed at Bacton, had preceded them, and
rescued the hands on board. About the same time another
small vessel, laden with wheat, stranded about a mile
south of Hasborough. The crew of two men and a boy
were saved by means of the rocket apparatus.

POLICE IN Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE—A SHAM POLICE-CONSTABLE.
Hanwell, a young man, described as a baker, and
Wm. Osborne, a blacksmith, were charged before Mr.
Tyrwhitt with-breaking open the door of Chas. Haines, a
ginger beer bottler, living in Bennett's-buildings, St.
Giles's, and stealing therefrom some articles. Hanwell was
further charged with assaulting the prosecutor, and repre-
senting himself as a constable of the .P division, he' not
being one, and Osborne was further charged with being
drunk. .= •

The prosecutor, a young man, who gave his evidenee in
anything but a clear manner, said—About 1 o'clock this
morning I sa-as in my room, 1, Bennett's-buildings, St.
Giles's, when my door was broken open by Hanwell, who
seized hold of me and said he was a police-coUstable of the
division, that he had got something against me, and
that I was to come along with him. I went along with
him, and on getting into Denmark-street I told him that I
would go with him, and that the first constable I saw I
would make him take us both to Bow-street station. Han-
well then struck me a violent blow in the mouth, knocking
me down, and ran away till he was caught in the arms of
police-constable 145 F. I lost my apron and scarf pin.

By Hanwell—The lock of the door was easily forced.
There was a second Verson in the room. I will swear that
you said that you belonged to the F division.
By Mr. Tyrwhitt —I have seen Hartwell before.

David Gamble, 145 F—l was on duty this morning in
High-street, and heard cries of "Police" in Denmark-street,
and met the two prisoners and another running at a fast
rate. I stopped Hanwell, who had a leather apron in his
hand. The prosecutor came up bleeding, and said that
Hanwell had broken into his room and represented him-
self as a police-constable. He said that Hanwell had taken
the apron and Osborne the pin. I took them to the station
and searched them, and found on Hanwell 305., but no pin.
Musicll said the money was his master's.
William Hughes, 172 C—Hearing cries of " Police," I
went into Denmark-street, and saw the prosecutor lying
on the ground, and he said Hanwell bad knocked him
down, and that his apron and pin had been taken from him.
Prosecutor recalled, said in answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt
Osborne did not come into the room but was outside,
whilellanwell was in.

Sergeant Chappell, 4 F—The pin was brought to the
station this morning by a female. I wish for a remand,
as I think I shall be able to produce further evidence.
Mr. Tyrwhitt remanded the prisoners, and refused Han-
well's father's application for bail.
