HARWICH.—The steam Life-boat Duke of Northumberland, with the reserve Lifeboat in tow, went out on the morning of the 6th January, in a fresh gale from the N.E., snow squalls and a very heavy sea, signals having been fired by the Cork Light-vessel. On reaching the Cork Sands the masts of a vessel with sails set were seen, and on arriving near to her three men were observed in the rigging, two of whom waved their hands to the Lifeboat men. The reserve Life-boat was towed close to the sunken wreck, and threw out grappling irons and life lines, which two of the men caught, tied round themselves, and jumping into the water, were pulled into the Life-boat in a very exhausted and benumbed condition. The other man was dead. The boats then promptly returned to their station, where the men were landed and their wants attended to. Having placed the two survivors in safety, the coxswain of the steam Life-boat considered it would be seemly to return to the wreck and bring ashore the dead body which had been left in the rigging. The boat therefore returned to the wreck, and having made fast to the rigging, one of the crew of the reserve boat, who had volunteered to go in the steamer, jumped on to the rigging, unlashed the man's body and fastened a line to it, by means of which it was dragged on board the Life-boat. The Life-boat man was also hauled on board by means of a line, and the returnjourney was made to Harwich. The wrecked vessel was the ketch Day's, of Barrow, laden with scrap-iron, and bound from London for Newcastle..
