yard lighter in tow, arrived at the spot, but their
vices were not required, as the flowing of the tide
carried the Pelican off. Indeed, s.o far was the Co
from 'being of any assistance, that we are informed,
ran into the Pelican, and carried alara y her jibbooni.
Pelican eventually made the anchorVe at Spithead,!
saluted the Admiral this morning, after which Cap
Rowley went aboard in the Fanny yacht, and le
tered and inspected the ship's crew. At about
o'clock she came into harbour, to disembark her slle,
and be paid off. This vessel has been upwanda ef
be lt
years in the service. The Pelican appears 10 fort
most abjectly filthy state. She is fit for notbmg fuo
than to be broken up. The want of assistance was
keenly felt at a time when this vessel appeared ill hs
danger, and serves to prove the necessity (whic,,,,
pointed out months since) of having a powerful 517,
vessel ready at any minute at each of our ports, WI
forth to the assistance of a ship in distress, or ta+
the incursions of an enemy. Here was a crazy rig
a valuable freight on board beating her bottom out 11l
a dangerous beach, and firing guns and rockets f:otil'
sistance two hours before any came, and this wiwa
mile of the flag of the Commander-in-Chief of the
naval port in the world ! Surely this is proof ellet
the necessity for guarding against the recurrence or
serious and lamentable losses of life and property se Ps
been attendant upon even a few moments (not
hours') delay in renderin assistance. The only yea
this port fit for service is the the Comet, a stnallatesmer,b
after she received her orders to get up her steam, °lf,
lieve near two hours were spent ; thus the vessel
in a heavy surf, and upon one of the most danle;
parts of the coast, have gone to pieces, lost herpr74
freight, and every soul have perished, because, is
first port in the world, no boat could be manned, go
delay must be occasioned by a steamer having Woo'
her fires. and get up her power. We should like to_w,
why the Admiralty authorities, when made acqlno
with the fact that a vessel of the royal navy ivs9°,ol
tress, with a valuable freight on board, did not 101 l
boat and send some officer as their representative god
and repert the danger of the distressed vessel. Ttr
praise cannot be given to Lieutenant Grand,' *VIO
promptness he displayed in going to the assistalweall
Pelican. We believe a Court of Inquiry will bev7olll
ascertain by whose negligence or ignorance the,. ;
took the ground. fl°°,
The Amazon, 26, Captain Stopford, arri
Sheerness this morning, and brought up atsrd,oo,
where she anchored and saluted ; she will receive bile
wages, and make trial of the range of her guns W
