beat out through the Western Channel this morn-
ing, and proceeded for her destination, Rio Janeiro.
The merchant schooner Herald, 61 tons, Captain
Nance, of Penzance, entered the port this morning,
under the following circumstances, as described by
her master :—She is laden with oranges, and left St.
IThos on the ith of November, hound to London.
Yesterday (Sunday morning), at five o'clock, when
near the Isle of Wight, wind south-east by east,
vessel lying east by north on the starboard tack,
under topsail, topgallant sail, jib, foresail, and single
reefed mainsail, mate's watch, saw a steamer with
lights bearing down towards then 3 ; mate exhibited a
light from the deck, but this not being observed, he
endeavoured to put the schooner about, when she re-
fused stays, and the steamer, which had slackened
her speed, took the Herald on the luff of the bow, and
thus fortunately struck her a " skirting blow," car-
rying away jibboom and bowsprit, bulwarks, and
seven or eight stanchions, besides doing other damage.
The steamer, the Foyle, Captain Kempston, was from
London for Dublin, calling at Plymouth. One of
her officers immediately boarded the disabled schooner,
which was taken in tow by the Foyle, and brought to
within four miles of the breakwater, when the tow
ropes broke, and she entered the harbour under
canvass.
