we were conveyed iq a' yaw, ladie and all.

- It took tis two boura to do what an American
captain would have done In fifteen minute. "
About 10 o'clock at night' we at'arted. - The,
issouri is a splendid ship, of eoormouedimrn-;
arona, tnd when ate haeon her full weight or

on board, belonging to the ship, who could spe.ak,
English, viz: tha Doctor and tha third officer.
For the firat five day. wa had a most favorab'e

rag of canvass apread the whole time, The

Jeeffe: betL The panengera all seemed to IcpI

sea it blow a day or two before he ia sure ilj ia

made only from .even to eight miles an hour.
