BULL BAY.—At 10 P.M. on the 9th May, a stiff breeze blowing from the E., the Guion Company's steamer Dakota, bound from Liverpool to New Tork, was reported to be ashore close in under the cliffs, inside the East Mouse. This vessel carried a crew and passengers numbering about 530, and the Life-boat Eleanor, in common with other boats, proceeded to render assistance.

About 20 persons were landed by the Life-boat, when the Eocket Apparatus came into use, whiinJi, from the nearness of the wreck to the cliffs, was found to be safer and more expeditious. Some smaller shore-boats of lighter draught were also found useful, the Life-boat laying by in case of accidents. All on board were safely landed..
