Grave 0rthl essness OF r.ife.Saving
Station Apparatus.
BOSTON, March G.--The Italian bark
Giovona, from Palermo for Boston,
which passed Cape Cod on the 9th inst. +,
is lost. Only the seward was saved.
Six or seven vessels are ashore between
Sandy Hook and Sandwich.
The following particulars of the loss
of the Giovona have been received ::
Atsunset, on Thursday evening, the
steward and captain got on plank
and tried to reach the shore. The
former was saved and the latter sank
in the surf. At II o'clock the vessels
main and mizzen masts went by the
board, tearing up her deck in the
ball. One hour later the cargo
began washing ashore. AT day
light this morning two men were
discovered on planks between the YES
sci and the shore, and five more We're
clinging to the foretop,. which still re-
mains standing. One after another
they released their hold and dropped
into the sea, to be seen no more. The
life-saving men made every effort in
their power to rescue them, but it was
of no avail, the bombs with which the
stations are provided being utterly
worthless, and no shot could be thrown
to the vessel, although only four hun
dred yards from the shore. Her cargo
and fragments of the hull line the
shore for miles. The vessel is fast
breaking up.
