BBIDLINGTON. — On the 3rd February a signal of distress was observed from the lugger Garibaldi of Gravelines, which was riding in the roadstead about a mile and a half south of the harbour. The Lifeboat William John and Frances was launched at 7.30 P.M., proceeded under sail to the vessel, and found that she had been in collision, and partly disabled, and as a heavy sea was running, and the wind was blowing a gale from the N.E., the crew of five mea were taken into the Life-boat and brought ashore..
