Reverie.—Three Ballon in a Life-boat,—one of whom is in the act of rescuing an exhausted mariner from the waves on a fragment of the wreck. "W. Wyon, Mint." Inscription, "Let not the deep swallow me np." TEX beautiful obverse of this medal, executed by the late L. C. WYOS, Esq., represent* the bust of QTJBKS VICTORIA, Her Majesty's locks gracefully waving and gathered in a knot behind, from which Issues a wreath of oak clustering over the forehead. This life-like portrait of the QCEEN, in high relief, conveys a truly pleasing and faithful likeness of HER MAJMTY at that period (1862), combining the dignity of aspect and benevolence which have always characterised the Queen throughout her long and prosperous reign. The reverse, representing the Life-boat, in which there are three Seamen, rescuing a fourth from the sea, Is a work of great merit. Two of the men are steadying the boat, while the other, stooping, draws in the Shipwrecked Sailor, whose figure Is given so as to show the form in the most natural manner; and the expression thrown into bis coun- tenance looking np to his preserver is supplicating in the extreme, while the easy flowing lines of this sailor are finely contrasted by those of his companions: the whole displaying a perfect knowledge of the human frame, and a command of the graver to embody what he had shadowed out to himself. But there Is another pleasing motive for admiration of this beautiful Medal, as the figure wbo Is so humanely extending his relief to the drowning Mariner Is a portrait of the Artist, the late WILUAX WroB, Esq., E.A., himself. The colour of the ribbon (which is corded silk) attached to the medal is blue. The following Is a LIST of the GOLD and SILVER MEDALS which have been voted by the Committee of the Institution from its establishment in 1824 to the 31st Dec., 1896, to persons whose humane and Intrepid exertions In saving Life from Shipwreck on our Coasts have been deemed sufficiently conspicuous to merit that honourable distinction.

The requisite qualities of a Life-boat man's life- belt are— 1. Sufficient extra buoyancy, 22 Ibs., to support a man heavily clothed, with his head and shoulders above the water, or to enable him to support another person besides himself. 2. Perfect flexibility, so as to readily conform to the shape of the wearer. 3. A division into two zones, an upper and lower, so that between the two it may be secured tightly round the waist; for in no other manner can it be confined sufficiently close and secure round the body without such pressure over the chest and ribs as to materially affect the free action of the lungs, impede the muscular movement of the chest and arms, and thereby diminish the power of endurance of fotigue, which, in rowing-boats, is a matter of vital importance. 4. Strength, durability and non-liability to injury. 632 THE LITE-BOAT. [1ST MAT, 1900. THE LIFE-BOAT STATION. THE following brief description and diagrams illustrative of a complete Life-boat Establishment, including the House for the protection of the boat, will serve to convey an idea of the general character of one of the 290 Life-boat Stations of the BOYAL NATIONAL LIFE-BOAT INSTITUTION. It will be seen that it is a work of a costly nature, and that not only in the first instance, but that a large permanent expense is entailed in keeping the whole machinery in an efficient state, in the re-supply of any part of it which may be de- stroyed or worn out, in the exercise of the boats' crews, in launching and working the boats, and in remunerating them for their services in saving their fellow-creatures. Yet, looking to the vast importance of the result effected, and the responsibility of calling on men to risk their lives in effecting the same, it is felt that few if any persons will be found who will consider that expense to be incurred in vain. THE LIFE-BOAT. (See Diagrams on following pages.") The following drawings show the general outline and principal fittings of the different types of Life-boats used in the Institution's service. Figure 1 gives the profile or broadside view. . Fig. 2 the " plan " or deck view. Fig. 3 the " body plan," showing the form of transverse vertical sections at regular intervals in the length; and Fig. 4 the " midship section." The festooned lines on the Fig. 1 profile views represent outside lifelines for men in the water to catch hold. The blackened portion of the keel indicates " iron keel" ballast in distinction from " water ballast" carried in "tanks" or compartments provided in the hold for the purpose, and admitting of being taken in or pumped out at pleasure; both "iron" and "water ballast" are Variable and optional in the several boats according to the special circumstances of the different stations and wishes of the coxswains and crews. IST MAT, 1900.] THE LIFE-BOAT STATION. 633 Water shipped on deck by seas breaking over the boat and otherwise, is automatically freed through the holes in the deck and bottom of boat, connected by large pipes called " relieving tabes " having valves called " relieving valves " fitted at the deck, which pass water downwards bnt not upwards. Some boats, such as the " Norfolk and Suffolk" type, have also freeing scuppers in the sides of boat above deck for the same purpose. Enclosed compartments are automatically ventilated by specially designed valves and pipes. Most of the boats have " centre boards " or " drop-keels " of variable size and weight, which can be used at pleasure and materially add to their weather qualities. SELF-RIGHTING TYPE. Fig.2.

THE LIFE-BOAT TRANSPORTING-CABJRIAGE. The Life-boat transporting-carriage is a very important auxiliary to the boat. Nearly every Life-boat, except a few of the larger sizes, is provided with a carriage, on which she is kept in the boat-house ready for immediate transportation to the most favourable position for launching to a wreck. A Life-boat is thus made available for a greater extent of coast than she otherwise would be. In addition to its ordinary use, a carriage is of immense service in launching a boat from a flat beach; while " Tipping's plates," with which the main wheels are sometimes clad, greatly facilitate the transport of the boat over the long stretches of soft sand which have to be traversed before deep enough water is reached to float the boat. 640 THE LIFE-BOAT. [1ST MAT, 1900. The carriage consists of a fore and main body. The latter is formed of a keelway, and of bilgeways attached to it, and resting on the main axle, the boat's weight being entirely on the rollers of the keelway. Its leading characteristics are that while for launching it forms an inclined plane, down which the boat can be launched off the rear end, it can also be used for replacing the boat, the inclined plane being reversed by removing the fore-carriage.

A yery full equipment of stores is supplied to the Life-boats of the Institution— such as cork life-belts, anchors and cables, grapnels and lines, life-buoys, lanterns, rockets, and many other articles, together with portable or lannching-skids. IST MAT, 1900.] THE LIFE-BOAT STATION. 641 THE LIFE-BOAT HOUSE. The boats of the NATIONAL LIFE-BOAT INSTITUTION, and all belonging to them, are kept in roomy and substantial boat-houses, under lock and key, in charge of paid coxswains, under the general superintendence of local honorary committees of residents in the several localities. Each boat has its appointed coxswain at a salary of 8/., and an assistant at 21. a. year, with further allowances nnder special circumstances. The crew consists, in addition, of a bowman, who is paid 30s. a year, and as many boatmen as the boat pulls oars. A signalman is also appointed who receives a retaining fee of I/, per annum, and payment as a helper each time he is on duty. The members of the volunteer crews are registered and, wherever practicable, at least double the number of men required are entered on the register. Such men are mostly resident boatmen, fishermen or Coastguardmen. On every . every time of going afloat for exercise. It should be specially crews, excepting when remunerated by the owners of vessels for property salvage service, are paid by the Institution for their efforts, whether successful or not, in saving life. These payments are increased bv one half during the six months of each year beginning the 1st October, and ending the 31st March. The Institution also grants retiring allowances to Coxswains, Bowmen and Signalmen of good behaviour and long service. A reward of Is. is given to the man who first brings intelligence of a wreck in such a position as not to be in sight of a Coastguard man on duty or other responsible look-out man. A flag hoisted by day, and the firing of a carronade (or other alarm signal) by night, are the well-known signals for calling the crew together. On boarding wrecks, the preservation of life is the sole consideration. Should any goods or merchandise be brought into the Life-boat, contrary to the coxswain's remonstrance, he is authorised to throw them overboard. The formatirnof a Life-boat Station costs considerably more than 1,0002., and the Annual Expense of maintaining it is about 1252.—in many instances much more. Such is a brief summary of the chief of the Regulations under which the Life-boats are worked. How faithfully and with what result they are carried out let the journals of each Life-boat Station and the annals of the Institution tell. The NATIONAL LIFE-BOAT INSTITUTION has now 290 Life-boats under its charge. Nearly all of these have been specially presented to it, and they save every year hundreds of shipwrecked sailors. Altogether, the Institution has granted rewards for the saving of 41,842 lives, either by its Life-boats or by other means. Despite, however, this fleet of 290 Life-boats, and of 16 others locally provided or otherwise sup- ported, and despite the numerous rocket apparatus stations on our coast, there remains the melancholy fact that between 500 and 600 lives are lost annually on or near the coasts of the United Kingdom alone, as shown by the Board of Trade Returns, proclaiming solemnly, though silently, that, for humanity's sake, and for the national credit, no exertions should be spared in providing every possible means for the conveyance of succour to Jie shipwrecked. The Institution needs an income of at least 80,0002. to maintain its great Life-saving Fleet; and the Committee feel assured that it will never lack it so long as it maintains its boats in the state of thorough efficiency that they are in at the present time, and manned as they are on every emergency by as fearless and noble a class of men as ever Nelson or Collingwood led to battle to uphold our country's honour and glory. 2—- ANNUAL SUBSCEIPTIONS AND DONATIONS. 1st JANUAET TO 31st DECEMBEE, 1899.

GALLANT LIFE-BOAT SERVICES IN 1899. aORLESTON, SUFFOLK. AT about 12.5 a.m., on the 30th September, 1899, the Coastguard on duty reported to the Coxswain of the Life-boat that a vessel was showing signals of distress off Great Yarmouth. At the time a whole gale was blowing from S.E., the sea was very heavy, the weather was thick and rain was falling. The crew of the Life-boat Marie Lane, belonging to the ROYAL, NATIONAL LIFE-BOAT INBTITOTMW, were summoned, and a message tn a steam-tug was despatched by telephone; but it was ascertained that one could not be obtained until daylight. The boat then attempted to sail out, but was driven back, and therefore made for Yarmouth. Having succeeded in there obtaining the services of a tug she proceeded in tow to the vessel, and found her to be the schooner Lorne, of Aberystwyth, bound from Yarmouth for London, in ballast. She was riding very heavily, dragging her anchors, and her windlass was broken. She had left Yarmouth two days previously, but had been compelled to put back through stress of weather. Her crew of four men were taken into the Life-boat, which was then towed to a windward position to enable her to sail back to her station. The Life-boat men stated that the sea on the bar and for half-a-mile out was the heaviest they had ever experienced. In returning, with the drogue out, the sails furled down to a goose-wing, and the forward ballast-tanks empty, one terrible sea pooped the boat; every man on board was under water and it was estimated that the boat—the behaviour of which they warmly praised—was carried by that sea a distance of at least two hundred yards. CAISTEK, NORFOLK. Os the 8th November, the Life-boat Beaachamp, which also belongs to the KOYAL NATIONAL LIFE-BOAT ISSTITUTION, saved, in circumstances of considerable difficulty and danger, the crew of eight men from the lugger Palestine, of Banff, which, while making for Loweetoft from the fishing-ground, stranded on the Cockle Sand in a strong gale from SSW. and a very heavy sea. At 4 a.m., the watchmen at Caisler observed signals of distress in the direction of the Sand, followed by signals from the Gotkle Light-vessel. The Life-boat was launched as soon as possible, and, proceeding under storm canvas across the Barber Sand, bore away for the Cockle Sand. By this time the flares had disappeared, but the shipwrecked men had hoisted a small lantern on Che mast; this light guided the Life-boat men to the scene of the casualty and on Hearing it the cries of the men shouting for help were distinctly heard. The Life-boat anchored and veered down towards the vessel, intending to pass a rope to her, bat the after part of the boat touching the ground put her nearly out of control, and being struck on the port bow by an enormous sea, she was carried directly on to the deck of the wreck which was sunk on the sand, only the fore part being above the water, and to this portion her crew were clinging, being con- tinually drenched by the enormous seas which washed over them. The Life-boat had her bow smashed and received other injuries; but having been got clear of the wreck, a rope was passed to the men, and the boat approached near enough to rescue them. They were in a thoroughly exhausted condition and the master and a boy had a narrow escape, as in jumping from the vessel they missed the boat and fell into the water; but they were grasped by the Life-boat men, and safely taken into the boat. During all these operations, mountainous seas continually broke over the Life-boat. The lugger entirely disappeared ten minutes after the men had been taken off, and it is a fortunate circumstance that they took the precaution to hoist the lantern when the flares went out, as this light, although a small one, was the means of directing the Life-boat mett to their assistance, thus avoiding loss of time in searching for them in the intense darkness which prevailed at the time. Having got all on board, the Life-boat anchored until daylight, when the steam-tug Gleaner was signalled for and towed her to Caister, where the men were safely landed. On beaching the boat, it was found that the collision with the wreck had seriously damaged her, and she was therefore taken to a shipbuilder's yard at Great Yarmouth, where the necessary repairs were executed. In recognition of their specially good services on this occasion, an exira reward was granted to the crew of the Life-boat, by the Committee of Management of the Institution, and the men had the gratification of receiving from those whom they had rescued, a letter, of which the following is a copy:— "M«. JAMES H. HAYLBTT, Caister-on-Sea, Coxswain of the Life-boat Beawkamp, " DEAB SIK,—We, the undersigned, being the crew of the Scotch boat Palestine, which was wrecked on the Cockle Sand during the night of Tuesday last, gratefully and sincerely lender to you and your brave crew our thanks for the courageous way in which yon came to onr rescue, and after many dangerous attempts succeeded eventually in saving one and all of us from a watery grave. We further beg to assure you that we shall remember youi heroic services as long as we are spared, and would be much obliged if you would give publicity to this, our thanks, in the Yarmouth Independent. " We are, gratefully yours, (Signed) GEORGE MAIE, WILLIAM MAIR, For ourselves and remainder of crew."

The Committee earnestly appeal to the British Public for Funds to enable them to maintain their 290 Life-boats now on the Coast and tbeir Crews in the most perfect state of efficiency. This can only be effected by a large and permanent annual income. The Annual Subscriptions, Donations and Dividends are quite inadequate for the purpose. The Committee are confident that in their endeavour to provide the brave Life-boat men, who nobly hazard their lives in order that they may save others, with the best possible means for carrying on iheir great work, they will meet with the entire approval of the people of thia the greatest maritime country in the world, and that their appeal will not be made in vain, so that tlie scope and efficiency of our great Life-saving Service, of which the Nation has always been so proud, may not have to be curtailed. Annual Sulaenptimt and Donations are earnestly solicited, and will be thankfully received by the Secretary, CHAKLES DIBDIN, Esq., at the Institution, 14 JOHN STREET, APELPHI, LONDON ; by the Bankers of the Institution, SJcssrs.
