COVERACK, CORNWALL.—About 6 A.M.

on the 21st February a four-masted steel barque—the Clan Graham, of nearly 2,000 tons register—while on a voyage from AJgoa Bay to the English Channel in ballast, ran aground on the rocks near Lowland Point. It was, atthe time, blowing a moderate S.S.W.

gale with a heavy sea. In response to rockets sent up by the barque, the Lifeboat Constance Melanie went to her assistance and was requested to stand by her. About the same time a tug came up, and it was decided to make an effort to get the vessel off on the rising tide, and later two other tugs arrived.

The Life-boat did excellent service in carrying warps from the stranded vessel to the tugs, and eventually the vessel was saved and taken into Falmouth Harbour, making water rapidly..
