encountered a dismal gale at W.S.W. ateoded
with heavy sea, which threw the vessel on her

beam-ends, but on cutting away her mainmast,
she righted, when a tremendous sea taking her
abaft, completely sxept the deck of every tLic,y;
but the bits, windlass, and cat stand, and s,>olt•af-
terxards several planks of the deck anti the India
hatchway blew up, end her stern-post became
loosened. The sca then making a complete
-breach over her, they were obliged to take

to the tore-top, where they vernal cd until the
7th inst. without food, not having been ahie

to save a single ounce of provisions—for.
innately they secured two casks of w.t er,
which no doubt preserved the lives of the
Survivors. On the 7th they descried a sail, to
which they made a signal by hoisting a blanket,
and had the satisfaction of seeing that it was per-
ceived, but soon afterwards a thick fog came on,
and they lost sight of her for three hours ; on its
clearing away they sga;n got sight of her, but
lost her again in a fog for an hour and
an half ; and this second disappointment be.

cleared away, and the friendly sail. was still
seen standing towards them, and shorly af-
terwards reached them, and took from the
wreck all the survivors, consisting of the Captain,
carpenter, and five seamen, all of whom were in
a complete state of exhaustion. Seven of the

crew, and the only passenger on hoard, had sunk
under fatigue- and privation before the brig
came to their assistance. They were completely
worn out, and (lied without pain and without
a struggle. The Captain had his brother- in-law
between his knees, endeavouring to rouse him
from Slumbering, as be thought, but round he
had resigned his last breath. The survivors speak
