HABWICH.—While a gale was blowing from the S., accompanied by a heavy sea, on the morning of the 30th March, a telephone message was received from Felixstowe stating that a schooner was aground on the St. Andrew's Bank and that she had signals of distress flying.

The steam Life-boat City of Glasgow left her moorings at 9.10 and found the stranded vessel was the Hose, of and for Ipswich, laden -with granite from Guernsey. It was seen that she would inevitably become a total wreck, and her crew of four men were therefore taken into the Life-boat and safe1.7 landed at about 11.45..
