RAMSEY, ISLE OF MAN.—At 9.20 A.M.

on the 16th June a telegram was received from the Point of Ayr stating that a schooner, with all sails blown away, was driving before the gale in the direction of Eamsey Bay. A strong N.W. gale was blowing, the sea was heavy and the weather thick. The Life-boat was promptly launched with the view of assisting the vessel, which was the Phoebe, of Peel, but she managed to get some head sail on and reached the harbour. Another schooner, the Maid of Irvine, of Belfast, bound from Annalong for Workzngton, which was lying two miles N.E. of the harbour, signalled for assistance, and the Life-boat on proceeding to her found she was riding heavily, had lost one anchor, and was leaking badly. The crew of three men, who were utterly exhausted, were taken into the Life-boat, which safely landed them and immediately proceeded to the schooner Furness Abbey, of and from Glenarm, bound for Barrow,laden with iron ore. She had lost all her sails, her spars were broken, and being in a perfectly helpless condition, about two miles S.E. of the harbour, in dangerous proximity to the rocks at Manghold Head, she showed signals of distress. Her crew of three men, who were also thoroughly exhausted, were taken into the Life-boat and safely landed. The vessel was leaking badly, and there was every probability that she would founder..
