BROUGHTY FERRY.—A telegram having been received stating that two vessels appeared to be embayed at the mouth of the Tay and were in danger of being driven on the banks, on which a terrific sea was breaking, during a very strong gale from the E.S.E., on the 14th March, the Life-boat English Mechanic was despatched down the river at 1 P.M. The steam-tug Fairweather, which had meanwhile been sent from Dundee, took the Life-boat in tow, and after getting beyond the Horse Shoe Buoy, the two vessels were observed bearing towards the Abertay Lightship at the entrance to the river.The tug and Life-boat thereupon put about and returned up the river, guiding the vessels along the channel until they reached Tayport Koadstead. They were both three-masted schooners, one being the Queen of Mistley, of Harwich, the other a Dutch vessel named the Willim. The former had been drifting about in the North Sea for several days at the mercy of the gale, •which had driven her far out of her course, and while crossing the bar several seas broke over her, carrying away the after wheelhouse, stoving one of her boats, and causing considerable damage to the deck fittings..
