We infert the following fntercfling par¬ ticulars of the refcue of a boy, who was call upon a rock near the mo'Jth of Kin- Icle harbour, duiing the wreck of a veflel ifi which he was a palTenger :-— The praifeworthy exertions of the Sove¬ reign of Kinfale, afiiiled hy fevcral other Gentlemen, to refcue the unfortunate lad, or to convey pronfions to him, were inef¬ fectual, the boats having been reluctantly obliged to retire, and to leave the unfortu¬ nate boy for the fecond night upon this <Jefolatc rook, without food or (belter, and vith all the fearful anticipation that, be¬ fore morning, cold and hunger would ter¬ minate hu exigence. As they retreated and the fufpenfe W3S unutterable until he was feen cline'ng to, and occafionally climbiogthe cliffs, where an immenfe feu had left him. He fucceed in mounting beyond the reach of the fprays, and was feen mod aftive-ly employed in affilling the po^r boy, who wr.s in a completely ex haufted It3fe of mind and body, and who could with difficulty defcend to where his preferver beckoned him- At length he reached him, and Jack Carty proceeded to invell his body with the rope which he had taken-from his own, and then performed the duty of ufhering him to the fpot where he had himfelf beeu thrown, where he con- figncd him to the waves- Doubt aud anx¬ iety were again painfully excited while the men in the boat were drawing him through the breakers and ltac, through which he mud pafs, before his fafety could be faid to be enfured ; but both were diffipated when he was feen taken in ever the gunnel, which was announced hy three cheers by the men in the boats. Dining thefe few moments of agitation, the intrepid Jack Carty, who remained on the ifland, was forgotten ; but the boy's fafety being iuiovvri, all eyes ivYrc turned ib tiie former, and he was dillinflly feen fitting down with the utmoft compolure on the point of a rock, waiting for his own chance of be¬ ing releaf-d. This happily, was not long accomplishing ; a rope was flung on the cliffs, and Jack more adroit than his pre- decdfbr on the Ifland, foofl felzed and tied it round his waid and moulders Not- withdandmg the perils of the fcene, it was almod uhimfical to fee this Sns fellow coU leeiiun; the boy's and his own cLtlies, which he deliberately tied up in a bundle; and pur under hinarm, and then defcend- ing to the mod favorable fpot, he watched his opportunity, and threw himfelf into the fca. from which, in the courfc of about five minutes, he was r;leafed hy his com* panions, who figmfied his fafety by loud cheers, which were returned from ihofe parts of the land where they could be heard.
