while off the Ikaw. During the whole of this time

overwhelining had been the violence of the tempest,
as to hoist out several of the port-holes, carrying
away the royal and top-gallant yards, sails and ail,
together with part of the booms, all the hammock.
cloths, &c. In this wretched state, with her bow-
sprit sprung, and having only one day's provisions
and one ton of water leff, by throwing four of her
guns over-hoard, she miraculously reached Peterhead.'
Yet, even in this melancholy condition, she contrived
to rescue from foundering a foreign vessel, totally
disntasted, and in the most hopeless plight, by throw-
ing a deep set-lead with a hawser on board her, nei-
ther ship having a boat left, and thus succeisfullyti
sowed her into port.
The fol!owing is an Extract of a Letter from an
Officer of the TANTA a relative to the loss of that ship :
On Sunday, August 18, we were standing in for
Kekke Bay, off Dagerott, in the Baltic, where we had
settivecrall our supplies of fresh beef and vegetabteiii
the.year. We had been out on a cruise off the Rus-
sian-coast, and had taken five prizes. All our fresh
beef being out, we were going in fcrmore,having very
ine weather, going in sounding from nine to ten fa-
thoms. At about a quarter before twelve all hands
were turned up about ship ; as we then found we had
suddenly shoaled, our water to six fathoms, and next
cast to five, when we put her abouti nstantly, an das soon
as the ship was round the other way, she struck lightly
forward ; we boxed her off, and she struck again
in the after-part, and went off immediately. 7?.
On our I trading the well, we found the ship was in
a sinking state, full of water. We thought it thp
safest way to go to the Island cf Wormi. We gct
all our pumps to work, but f ,und ire could not get
nut the water, as the leak was increasing. We an,
chored off Worms, and got the ship all ready for un-
2.,ggitig, We were sure she was a lost slip, as she
made 20 feet of water in an hour. We were constantly
pumping her for four successive days and nights. At
last the people were overcome with fatigue and quitei
exhauae.d ; we thought it therefore the best way, for
the preservatit a of tike ship's company, to run her on
shore, which ate did.. On the fifth morning we got!
the ship ur,rigged, and all the people and stores 9a
