DROGHEDA.—On the 11th May, at about 11.30 A.M., a vessel was reported to be in distress outside the Bar. The crew of the No. 2 Life-boat, John Rutter Qhorley, were assembled, and the boat was launched as quickly as possible and proceeded out to the vessel. On nearing the wreck, it was found that she was sinking, and it was seen that her crew, 2 in number, had been compelled to take to their own boat.

The Life-boat went after them and took them safely ashore. The* vessel proved to.
