.— On the 20th September information was received j here, that the smack Jane, of Carnarvon,! was riding outside the Orme's Head dis- j masted, and with signals of distress flying.

The wind was blowing strong from the j north. The Sisters' Memorial life-boat was quickly manned and launched, and on ar- riving alongside, found the vessel fast drift- ing towards the rocks with her mast and all the gear overboard. They took off the captain, his wife, and 2 men. The life- boat was afterwards taken in tow by the steamer, Prince Arthur, to Beaumaris..
