About IL o'clock on Sunday (Suaday's the best
day to go 10 sea) determined on going to sea- for
the purpose of seeing how my beautiful and gallant
Celeste would work in the tides way. The wind be-
ing fair and blowing stiff breeze, by rise Mon
day morning we were 10 miles to the eastward OF
Sandy Hook. Capt G. is thorough going sailor and
and mathematician. | amused myself taking the sun
when he had got sufficiently up and came within 60
miles Of our true place by my own calculations This
approximation the truth by tyro in the art of.na
VACATION being glory enough for one day, and being
laughed by the captain for my pains, secretly
solved to drop the subject and not TO resume 1t till
should be able to ship cabin boy with the intent Of
mastering the profession.
Bearing to the norhward, a sail was sPied of our
weather quarter. 1t looked just like white kerchicf
spread out in the heavens and Swimming along the
surface. BY noon, we were along side. 1t proved
10 be the Dutch ship Dort Captain Van Doren, from
Hamburg for the port Of New York. The Captain
was very civil fellow, and being able myself TO jab-
Der in low Dutch, we soon became intimate. Having
got our regular files of the Algcmeine ZcItung the
Hamburg Gaarten, the Leipsig Dorede, &c. o.. we
were preparing decaGp, when the Captain arrested
nv attention and inquired very seriously for my
name.
"James Gordon Bennett said ], with unusual sang
frsd.
"Give me your hand" exclaimed the Caplan,-I
now translate the conversation under the belief that
aiow Dutch dialogue would not be very entertaining
10 nv readers" give me your hand. The very man
1 wanted most to see"
So saying, he gave my hand a regular Dctch
squeeze from the effects of which have not yet re-
covered The compestors say my manuscript is
worse than usual It's all owing TO q hearty shake of
the hand. After complmenting me upon my success
in the Herald, and telling me than my Wall street
ticles had excited great sensation in the mercantile
circles Of Holland and the German towns, assuring
me that they regularly translated they came
to hand, and looked on perfect specimens Of
commercial economy during which time felt very
foolish, he led me TO the main cabin.
Allow me-" said he TO a noble finely dressed and
arisocraiical looking gentleman about as high my
thumb nail, " to introduce you to James Gordon Ben
nett, Esq the proprietor and editor Of the New York
Morning Herald"
MY little gentleman rose, and looked for all the
wsrId Just like George Nv. when he was regent
bowed.
"Mr Bennett" said the Captain, you have The
honor of Standing in the presence of Prince Fazenhem
of the Gerranc States"
l bowed again involuntary, for have no more re-
gard for Princes, than have for simple Misers. The
Prince spoke in natural tone Of voice which greatly
surprised me, seeing his dminu,ive stature ventured
20 inqsIre if he was the same gentleman who accom-
panied Bulwer up the Rhine. He was. ! now felt
more at home, and asked anxiousy after the health
OF queen Nymphale.
The Captain in the mean time had repaired to her
state roop and was galaniine her to where we were
standing Just as I had finished nay question Intro
