Fnecfa Of The GreRf Gale.

ENGLAND,
Effects of the Great Gale.
From tie European Times, Nov. 80.
During the late gale the emgrsnt ship Edmond
rom London, was driven on shore on the Dun
CANA rocks near Limerick, and soon became g
total wreck. The shrieks of the people Oh board
were terrific, and the vessel was seen by the
family Of gentleman named Russell who exert
ed themselves in every way to render assistance
Wave after wave washed ashore the bodies of the
dead, and every house In kilkee was made sort
of hospital The vessel contained two hundred
and sixtcen passengers. of whom ninety six were
lost. Subscriptions OF very liberal amount were
entered into in many places. Several other yes
sels were driven ashore, and many more are
missing.
On Sunday last the screw.steamer Albatross,
Captain Lyall, belonging to the Waterford Steam
Packet Company, reached this port after having
experienced very heavy gale. 1t appears that
she left Dublin on Saturday evening, about half
past ten, the weather being at that time rather
favorable. She had valuable cargo, and about
400 head Of cattle; some of these were on deck
but the greater portion in the hold where they
were tied in the usual way. After being out
short time the vessel encountered q severe gale,
and several heavy seas swept the decks, carrying
several OF the cattle overheard We understand
that the severity Of the weather rendered it ne
cessary to drive from so to 60 head Of cattle over
board.
The rolling the vessel caused such confusion
among the cattle in the hold, that some of the
boarding by which they were separated gave
way, and the poor beasts unable to maintain their
position, were driven in clusters to the eeward
side. Numbers of them were smothered. The
consequence was, that the vessel was thrown
upon her beam ends, and she could not be rghted.
She was then allowed to drive before the wind
for about four hours, after which the gale moder
ated The Albatrogs arrived here on Sunday, at
noon, being delayed Of course, several hours be-
yond her usual time On Monday the dead cat
tie were taken out Of the vessel and carried
away in carts They numbered about 100, aud
were oil more or less swelled with sea-water.
The vessel did not sustain any injury and on
Monday she sailed again on her return trip.
SCHULZ, Nov 20.-The Odessa with indian
corn, from Constantinople to f falmouth, arrived
safe at the latter port, where she got orders for
" cstport, proceeded on her voyage thither, and
got north as far as the Blasqucts, where she en-
countered the gales of Monday and Tuesday last.
Unable to make port OF safety, she was driven
back and the captain having been washed over
board, the crew not well knowing where they
We're underwent the most deplorabc suerings.
At one time they were SO near the land that
many Of the men were in the rigging to leap
ashore; and they eten passed driven furiously
by the gale between the Skelligs and the Lemon
Rock, and went close by the Bull Cow and Calf,
off the Dursey. One man of the crew broke his
arm another dislocated his wrist, and many 9th
ers were wounded and injured in various places
hour this morning they were brought ashore in
Crookhaven by the pilot Hooker, Harry brennan,
the crew OF which got the vessel safe into Long
Island Channel. The crew of the Odessa are all
Italians but one man. pilot from Falmouth.
They had not slept an hour nor tasted mors ell
for four days, but those who are disabled are now
upper proper medical treatment No vessel ever
more narrowly escaped being completely dashed
to pieces.
