HOLYHEAD.—On the 23rd November, at about 3.30 A.M., during a very heavy gale, signals of distress were seen in the bay.

The Life-boat Thomas Fielden was immediately launched, and proceeded in tow of a steamer to the assistance of a French brig ashore at Nimrod Rocks; and having made a line fast to the vessel, she was towed into harbour. The boat afterwards proceeded to the three-masted schooner James Carthy, the water being too low to admit of the steamer going near her, and rescued her crew of 10 men. Very great difficulty was experienced in effecting this service, the heavy seas breaking completely over the vessel and Life-boat.
