MISSING SEAMEN.
The three fishermen reported to have been missing since Sunday week, and who were supposed to have been drowned, have turned up safely. It appears that during a squall on Monday they lost their sails, and being unable to row all the way back, owing to the heavy sea, were obliged to land near Poncarrrow Lighthouse. The weather having calmed somewhat, they rowed home on Friday last, and appear none the worse for their outing.
