LYDD, DUNOENESS.—On the evening of the 10th of January, signals of distress were shown by a vessel anchored in the East Bay, Dungeness, during a moderate W.S.W. gale and a rough sea. The David Hulett Life-boat was launched at 6.30 P.M., and found that the schooner Margaret, of St. Ives, laden with nuts from Spain, had dragged her anchors, and had been in collision with a steamer.

The schooner's crew of three men were taken into the Life-boat and brought safely ashore..
