WHITBY.—At 11.45 A.M. on the 6th December, during a strong gale from the E.N.E. and a heavy sea, with snow, the brig Star of Hope, of and for Newcastle from Dieppe, in ballast, became embayed between Whitby and Upgang Rocks. She then ran for the beach, and stranded about two hundred and fifty yards north of the West Pier. The No. 1 Life-boat, Robert and Mary Ellis, was at once launched, gallantly pulled through the heavy sea, and in about twenty minutes from the time of the vessel stranding, her crew, consisting of six men, were safely landed.
