During the night of the 7th February the schooner Zouave was lost on the Hasbro' Sand. She belonged to Ports- mouth, was bound from that place to Seaham, and carried a crew of 6 hands.

The night was hazy and the wind fresh at S.W. when she got on shore. Her signals of distress were observed shortly after midnight, and the Palling No. 2 Life-boat, the British Workman, was promptly launched, and succeeded in reaching the wreck by 3 A.M., and safely embarking the crew, returned to the shore about day- light. A heavy sea was running when this service was accomplished, and the conduct of the coxswain, WALTER PESTEL, together with that of his crew, elicited the warm commendation of the Local Com- mittee..
