POKTMADOC, CARNARVONSHIRE. — At 8 A.M. on the 24th January, a vessel having been observed on the S. side of the bar during a strong W.N.W. wind, the John, Ashbury Life-boat put off, and with some difficulty got alongside the vessel, which proved to be the barque Jlaab, of Moss, Norway, bound from Liverpool to Valparaiso with a cargo of coal.

She had been thoroughly disabled by the gale, and had stranded about two miles S.

of the Black Buoy. The master and 5 of the crew got into the Life-boat, and were put ashore. The remainder of the crew, however, refused to leave the vessel, which subsequently drove in-shore, so that on the weather moderating they were able to land in a pilot-boat..
