ST. IVES, CORNWALL.—The schooner Jane Smith, of Plymouth, bound from Llanelly to Ipswich with coal, was observed running for St. Ives Harbour at about 8 A.M. on the 15th of September, during a strong gale from the N. and heavy sea, with a signal of distress flying.

The Life-boat Exeter was at once launched and proceeded to her assistance, but inthe meantime the vessel struck on the 'Eidge," and it was with considerable difficulty that the boat managed to get alongside and rescue the crew, consisting of six men. She then returned ashore against the gale, a strong tide setting to the eastward, and reached the harbour at about 9.30, when the men were safely landed in an exhausted state..
