NEW EOMHET, KENT.—Distress signals having been shown by the barque Windermere, of Newcastle, bound from London for Eangoon, with a general cargo, during a moderate E.S.E. gale and a heavy sea, on the 17th of January, the crew of the Sandal Magna Life-boat were immediately summoned, and the boat was launched at 9.15 P.M. On reaching the vessel, which had stranded off Littlestone, it was found she was striking very heavily, and was driving along shore. The master and crew, thirteen in all, were therefore taken into the Life-boat, and landed at about 1.30 A.M..
