RUNSWICK, YORKSHIRE.—At about 4 A.M.

on the 30th August, while the wind was blowing strongly from the N.E., accompanied by a heavy sea, the schooner Zipporah, of Scarborough, which had been on the beach on the previous day delivering coal, and had anchored in the bay, commenced to drag her anchors, and hoisted a signal of distress. The Life-boat Margaret and Edward thereupon proceeded to her, took off her crew of two men, and brought them safely to land. The vessel shortly afterwards drove on shore and became a total wreck. Before proceeding ashore with the two men, the Life-boat proceeded to a fishing coble which was dragging her anchor, and towed her into a safe position..
