Wreck of the italian Bark Giovanni
The l.ife.bOats to the Rescue.

Boston, March 4. At o'clock this afternoon,
during the snow-storm inward bound bark
went ashore about three miles north of Highland
light, Cape Cod, she having struck upon the outer
edge of the inner bar; the first contact with the
shore tearing away the rudder from its fastenings,
the sea making a complete breach over her. No
communication could be had with her, owing to
the immense waves breaking upon the shore. She
showed what was supposed to be an Italian flag,
and from this circumstance it was copjectured that
the vessel was the Italian bark Giovanni, from
Palermo for Boston, which has been expected here
for some days past.
Capt. Worthen and crew from life saving station
No. 7, were promptly on the spot to render all
possible aid to the mariners, and the crew will be
