As the Caister life-boat was returning to the shore, the brig Elizabeth, of BIyth, was seen on the south part of the Cross Sand with a signal of distress flying. Approach- ing her, they saw the ship's boat in the midst of the breakers on the sand, and, making all speed, they found the crew of the vessel in her, and saved them, 8 in number, from their imminent peril. Some of the poor fellows were only half clothed, and their boat was almost swamped, for it had nearly filled and must soon have sunk.
