THE LATE GALE.

Additions are reported to the list of disasters
which occurred on the Cornish coast on the 22d inst.
Visitors to the celebrated Logan Rock will remem-
ber a little creek or inlet, called Portchapel Cove, in
which large quantities of wreck were seen early on
Friday morning. Information was sent to Pen-
zance, and in a short time the proper authorities
were at the Cove. The wreck washed ashore com-
prised pieces of masts, spars, chains, cables, rigging,
and sails ; at length a paper was picked up, which
proved to be a page of a ship's log book, and bore
the dates of the 12th, 13th, 14th, and 15th of April,
1859. It belonged to the brig Majesty, bound from
Monte Video for Cork or Falmouth, and it was
signed " Thomas Alexander, mate ;" shortly after-
wards there was picked up the stern board of a
ship's board, with the words" Majesty, Plymouth,"
painted in yellow letter on a blue ground. It is
concluded that the brig Majesty, belonging
to Mr. J. W. Guswell, of Plymouth, has been
dashed to pieces, and that all the crew, seven or
eight men, perished. The schooner Juno, Green,
master, of Plymouth, foundered off the Land's End;
crew saved. The sloop Osprey has arrived with the
wreck of the schooner Priscilla, of Jersey, in tow ;
the schooner was laden with fish, potatoes, and oil ;
her masts and rigging had been cut away, and she
had lost one of her crew overboard when fallen in
with by the sloop. On Thursday afternoon an in-
quest was held at Penzance, before Mr. Roscoria,
county coroner, on the bodies of two seamen be-
longing to the unfortunate Prussian barque Die
Sonne, which went to pieces on Pra Sands, in-
volving the loss of nine lives. The second mate,
one of the two men saved, gave evidence, the
pith of which has already appeared in The Sun.
it appeared that the pilot and his son were taken
on board on Tuesday morning, near the Scilly.
Islands. During the severe gale which com-
menced that night the main and mizenmasts were
cut away and the anchor was let go; 90 fathoms of
chain were dropped and the ship was for some time
checked, but she made a sheer and the chain broke.
At this time four men were disabled, and the re-
mainder were unable to clear the chain so as to let
go another anchor. Soon after this the ship struck
on some rocks called " The Stones," and the rudder
broke. Nothing more could be done, and the ship
rapidly drifted on the shore with the terrible con-
sequences which have been narrated.
The details of the distressing shipwrecks and loss
of life upon the Gower coast are slowly coming to
hand, and fully bear out the extent and magnitude
of our previous reports. The following is believed
to be a correct list of the wrecks :—The Eliza, of
Jersey, which was in charge of Daniel Rees, a pilot,
of blandly, lost with all hands—supposed five—and
also the pilot Rees. The Jenne Celine, of Jersey,
a French lugger, totally lost upon the rocks and all
hands drowned. The coroner has formally opened the
inquest upon the bodies of four French seamen east
ashore, who are supposed to have been the crew of
this vessel. The brig St. Catherine, of Fay, sailed
at the same time, and, as no subsequent tidings
have been heard of her, she has doubtless gone
down, with all hands, supposed to be six in number.
The Sophie, of Regneville (number of crew not
known) foundered ; entire crew lost. The Charles
Walker, of Llanelly, totally lost, together with the
whole of the crew, believed to be six in number.
The brig Onward, of Llanelly, total wreck ; crew
lost, together with the captain's son and the pilot,
Christopher Lewis ; the bodies of the captain
(David Clement) and the pilot (Christopher Lewis)
have been washed ashore and identified at the in-
quest which was formerly opened. The Fanny
Mary, of Almwch (North Wales), completely broken
up, and all hands (supposed five in number) perished
—the boy jumped on board the pilot boat, and was
saved. The Huntress totally wrecked in .Brough-
ton-bay ; crew lost, number unknown, supposed to
be at least six in number. The .Roscina also ashore,
and total wreck ; crew lost, number unknown. The
Brothers of Llanelly, complete wreck in Brough-
ton-bay ; crew saved.
The Water Lily ashore ;
crew lost, supposed to be four n number ; hull of
vessel might possibly be saved and got off. The
Fanny, also ashore ; entire crew lost. The Anne,
of Barnstaple, wrecked in Broughton-bay ; entire
crew (supposed five in number) lost. The Amethyst,
of Dublin, ashore, and no hopes of her being got
off; the fate of her crew has not been ascertained.
There is no longer any doubt that upwards of 50
seamen have been lost, and, probably, when the full
at
t details

been
ound t htaot
Saturday evening about 18 bodies had been washed
ashore.

TBE CHILDREN OP THE LATE TOlf SAYERS.—
At the Rolls Chambers, yesterday, before Mr. Marshall
the chief clerk, the case of "Sayers v. Sturt" was dis-
cussed as to an issue to ascertain whether the children
born after the marriage—when the parties were separated
—could claim with the other children born before Sayers
married. There was about £3,000 collected after the fight
with Heenan, which was settled on Sayers, and after his
death to bo divided among his children. The question was
as to Sayers' children. Mr. Edward Johnson applied for
an issue. Mr. Gay, from the office of Mr. Dale, appeared
for the plaintiffs and trustees. The chief clerk referred the
matter to the Master of the Rolls.
The son of a farmer named Howard, living at
Sonny Bridge, who by the loss of one of his legs has been
incapacitated from following his ordinary pursuits,
recently sent to the Princess of Wales "a true lover's
knot," which ho had carved out of wood with his own
knife, and which ho offered to her royal highness as a mark
of respectful attachment. Howard has just received the
following unexpected acknowledgment, dated from Sand-
ringham Palace :—" Sir,—I have received the commands
of the Princess of Wales to thank you for your kiud atten-
tion, and to say that she has pleasure in returning the
offering which you have sent her, and that she regrets the
eircintustance under which your ingenious work was exe-
Ated. Her royal highness has further directed me to
enclose a cheque for ten guineas, as a little pecuniary
acknowledgment, to which she hopes there will be no
objection.—l am, sir, your obedient servant, HERBERT
L FISILEA.--gr. 110911 ROWDad."
