First. In regard g tho Bcc hcrsef;-From al thai
oxso been able gather during the passage she been
brought hero for tho express purpose Of being Sold and
there onlyne purpose for which she DO purchased
namely: TO run tho blockade Of Mobile, sops oths
southern port She Ia admirably ntted for slch pur
pose and most appropriately termed the Belle for she
IA model Of beauty AZ she paragon In speed. Her
capacity 10 ninety nve tons burthcn She was built
New York for yacht In which capacity thc did duty for
some timc. u Is claimed Tor her that beat the
vessel that deprived tho farfamed America Of her
wellearncd hureh. Her present captain inform
Cd mo that she has made fourteen aud
half nots In Long Island Found. Certain Ia she made
twelve knots for some hours Saturday during her
sage 70 this plaoe This guod TO last however;
and succession Of caims. alternaisd with light battling
winds materially checked her speed The Belle, in add,
ton to her superb lines and other testimony 70 the ship
builders skill, carries an enormous n,aipsall, hfgs
enough indeed for schooner OF $50 tons burden The
foregoing brief description viii show how well adapted the
Belle TO the blockade. Only let our cruisers look
sharp and Of them may be fortunate enough 10 pick
up Hst rate craft Of cxcceent sailing qualties toech

Ihsve suspect that running the beckAdc
be nothing To the Belle but that shs has player
game already between Mobile and Havana. Iwas almost
convinced u the fact this morning going down tho
cabin, where found tho captain and passenger who
