[For the REPortmal A TRIP ACROSS THE : WATER. " With clashing wheel and lifting lieel, And smoking ,torch on high, When winds are-lond_and billows feel, She thunders foaming by; When seas are silent and serene, With even beam she glides—" As regards the' "'dangers of the seas" (generally excepted in bills of lading), although ships do sometimes leave port never again, to' be heard tlie:nuitiblir of OEOI - is sometimes so great (those, for instance, in our. vessel on my return being over 1,000), that, in ease of ac cident, the safety of but a small pro portion could_lie provided for—and although a feeling of satisfaction and. thankiulness to a kind Providence' on again safely landing,is,,not, as : I believe, either sdtFfeiSiious of uSlconi mon even with those who have made repeated voyages—yet when we con„ Bider how few lives are lost among tile' great numbers continually traversing the " highway of nations;' the gene ral idea of the risk to be encountered is greatly lessened. Most, life insu rance companies are now abandoning the claim formerly made, of an extra 'premium from persons contemplating a trans-Atlantic voyege.While we should be continually grateful to our Maker for the preservation of our lives amid the ever surrounding dan gers of both sea and land, I do not quite feel, as an individual expressed himself to me, " that he always re garded it as a special intervention of Divine Providence when hearing of a person's landing in safety from an ocean steamer." One of the most dreaded dangers of ocean navigation—that of fire— seems to be well guarded against in vessels of the "Inman " and other lines of Atlantic steamers. By means of pumps worked by steam, and hose, connected, any part of the ship can be flooded at short notice' from the supplies of the briny deep. The " City of London" was also provided with the Patent Fire Annihilator, by which a certain gas is speedily cre ated from chemical substances, that extinguishes combustion. Such a process very likely might in a chemi cal point of view be highly interest-_ in.'" and curious to the observer ; but, prom a little personal experience of my own, under similar circumstances on the water, I am rather led to in fer that, if possible, the speedy appli cation of a torrent of Nature's cheap and liquid element would be quite as satisfactory to the minds of-most par ties on board, in case of fire at sea. --Icebergs are said to be more fre quently seen in the later months of summer on the passage, than in June. When fairly in sight during the day,_ not . much danger of contact is, of course,- to be apprehended—although if approaching too near, a ship may strand upon some submerged por tion. Dense kyrs, however, are not uncommon in . th e North Atlantic, and during thilir continuance, or in the darkness of the night, a vessel under full headway ,may come in contact with one of these rovers of the deep; with as fatal a result as that of being dashed upon the rocky cliffs of coast or island. Our captain, a few years before, when commander of the " City of Baltimore," had the misfortune to "collide" 'with an iceberg, and, though not running at full speed, such was the injury to the steamer's bows, that she probably would havegone down but,for th e fact of her being con structed with water tight compart ments. CREEK ' HO- Marvelous but well authenticated accounts are given of the extent of some of these islands of ice, said to be miles in circumference.; and al though two-thirds of their mass floats beneath the surface, they rise' occa sionally hundreds of feet above. The captain of the good ship Minnehaha; of and from the port of Boston, on a return voyage from the Pacific a few years since, descried near Cape Horn, an immense iceberg floating north ward from the Antarctic Seas. On examining it with his glass, he dis eqiered what appeared to be living and moving o' jects upon, its surface, and determined to approach nearer, although prudence generally prompts the shrewd skipper to giVe the ice berg " a wide berth." He headed his vessel cautiously in its direction, 4.stellanono; —Hob,ws MIMI i 4^ r~~' ,",> • . 154 (MANDA--11 1211 :Mil was rewarded z iftildliteilisok; 411 :4 1 g plainly afasiflraftreaysich* two who seem' t4.34f4(10432 ph Witrd when the ice_ shirlOtiocatel frOm its wintry mooritigio,4iiifidi wig : voyaging with it3o4.trerfs limn—apparently, ;motti:', - ast ;POvided larder. tat,joC':iiithic - ed circumstance of n • earlyillio them! :Whig seated ttpright i athailisxmar;.

At such times, he must de ,pend wholly upon the combined aid of the Compass and the Log ; the one showing the course of the vessel, and the other its rate of progress i and the distance traversed. But serious diffi culties and inaccuracies are iigilant ly to be guarded against . here. Imag ine, for instance, the magnetic inter ference of the metal of which a IE4O irpn vessel is builtovith the , slight and easily affected polar, needle brating Upon its deck—liable, too, to be increased, by a cargo of -iron or the like in its hold,, 'to an .uncertain extent. In addition , to -which, con ceive of the perplexity eaessioned.by a continually increasing or lessening variation of the needle, according to the degree 'Of lengittide (anieruiting, it is , said, to nearly one-third of a right 'angle from one shore,of the'At lantic to the.other)- - 4i variation which came near _proving fatal to the first voyage of Columbus to America. "Heaving the log," to the casual observer, would also seem much more unsatisfactoryand unreliable as a ba sis of calculation than it really is. The Log I speak of, is not exactly a log in the common acceptation of the-term ashore, but merely a little triangular sack of canvas, some four inches in diameter and filled with water. Attached to the end of a long cord (upon which regular distances are marked, and running lightly as possible from the reel upon which it is wound), the Log is cast Astern up on the foaming surf, where it is sup posed to remain stationary while the ship moves onward, for the brief space of fourteen seconds by the chronome ter, or more generally the hour-glass. Thus the length of cord payed out in the interval, 'shows the distance traversed by the ship, and her rate of sailing. The general correctness! of the sea man's calculations withnuch a, basis is, it must be said, somewhat remark able. Thus for'nstance .on 'our rer turn trip, owing _to the stormy and overcast weather we experienced, few, if any, opportunities'occurred for ob servations with the sextant ; and the Wain dependence of Capt. Mirehonse was consequently upon the log ; com pass and chart. Yet i at the. hour Pre dicted by, hit' n'nn the day previous, as wo were approaching the Banks of Newfoundland, the fiunilitir. head lands of Cape Race (the; first _to be discovered by the voyager westward) came in sight at the proper distance and bearing from our steamer; al though, from the very iniudl number of ships we had seen during the voy age, one might, have conjectured a deviation from the usual route. . —Especially with our own fast American race, the most rapid yes sels upon these -lines are of course the most popular ;..although not, it would seem, inaij respects the most pleasant.
