GREENCASTLE.—On the 19th February, at 5 P.M., a schooner was observed at anchor, in a very dangerous position, off Ennishowen Head. The wind was blowing strongly from the S.S.W., and the sea was very heavy. The Greencastle Life-boat went off to her assistance, and brought the crew, consisting of 5 men, ashore.

The vessel proved to be the schooner Mary Elizabeth, of Beaumaris, bound from Workington to Londonderry, with a cargo of bar iron; she had two anchors out, but was labouring very badly, and had lost her fore-topmast and head gear. When the boat reached the spot she had much difficulty in going alongside, as the main boom of the vessel was flying about in all directions, her crew being quite unable to haul it amidships and secure it.
