BAU,TWAI,TEE, Co. DOWH.—On Sunday morning the 30th September, at about half- past four o'clock the Coastguard watchman observed a dim light in the direction of the Skull Martin Rock. The Coastguard galley was immediately manned and went off to render assistance. It was found that the vessel was the barque Cuyuni, of Glasgow, bound from that port to Demerara with a general cargo. The sea proved to be too rough and heavy for the galley, and as the wind was freshening and the sea was getting heavier it was considered best to return to shore in order to obtain the services of the Life-boat. On landing it was seen that signals of distress were still shown by the vessel, and all haste was therefore made in assembling the crew of the Admiral Henry Meynell Life-boat and in getting that boat launched. On reaching the vessel she took off some of the crew and brought them ashore, the master and other officers refusing to leave the ship.

No sooner, however, had the Life-boat landed than the vessel again showed signals, and the Life-boat returned to her.

The remainder of those on board, fourteen in number, were then rescued, and the vessel afterwards became a total wreck..
