PADDLE-WHEEL versus SCREW STEAMERS

As even sailing ships, under favourable circumstances, may
once in a time equal the speed of the best ocean steamers, so is
it quite possible for any large-sized screw, of even small engine
power, to do almost as much once in the twelve months; but
"an opportunity for comparison has °tiered on other vo -
0/I"2_,,y,ages
(besides the one noted above) between screw a paddle
steamers, both to the eastward and westward," a ie following
statement of the passages of the Cunard s amers and the
Liverpool and Philadelphia screws very iniy illustrates :
