so thick that neither sun, moon, nor stars,
were to be seen. On the 10Th June he
left Abaco, for Powel's Point, EIetheuera,
or Hetera, where he arrived on the even
ing Of the goth. The next day, 2lst, he
loaded with fruit, such as pine apples,
ltimes aud oranges, and sailed for this port
| on the following morning. He arrived
here the Sd inst, having been absent 35
DAYS; having sailed out, and back, 1880
