pers tell of Dutch galliot which has made
its appearance in the waters of the Delaware,
and attracts much attention in consequence Of
its oddity and ugliness. In consequence of
her breadth at the water line, and narrowness
of deck, she cannot come within some three
feet Of the wharf. If the bowsprit was taken
of, il would require great degree OF naun'
cal skill to distinguish her bow from the stern;
If there is any difference in the bluntness OF
her extremities the bow has it. ..
