WICK.—The fishing-lugger Isabella, of Wick, while attempting to put to sea on the 26th February, the water being still rough after a S.W. gale, was struck by heavy sea and was driven up the river.

Both her anchors were dropped, but they were of no avail and she was soon thrown on the rocks, where the sea made a clean breach over her. The-Life-boat John Anns was launched at 5 P.M., and at 6.30 returned, bringing the crew of the fishing-boat, six men in number..
