AN ATLANTIC VOYAGE IN a LILLI'
PuTTAN SHIP.
From The New York World. July lO.l


The project Of crossing the Atlantic by
very small vessels, to which the unsuccessful
trip Of the Pisi0n first drew attention, has
been revived In the case Of the Red, White
and Blue a miniature full-rigged ship, ccm-
manded by Capt. JOHN NJ. HUDsOS, late
a masters mate in the United States navy,
and solely accompanied by Capt FRANCIS
EDWARD FTTcH. This vessel is furnished
with three masis and sixteen sails, in area
sixty-fve yards Of canvas, her greatest
length being byenty-three feet by a width,
Of FIVE and a half feet BY the libarallty of
several gentlemen, the nautical Lilliput has
been furnished with full equipments, chart,
compass, barometer, and meteorological appa-
ratus, and is stored with eighty days pro-
visions, including two hundred and fifty
gallons Of water, fifty cans OF desicated roast
beef thirty packages Of coffee, two hundred
pounds Of bread, and liquors, preserves,
cigars, and solids and Injuries in proiusion,
besides which there are one thousand seven
hundred pounds of ballast on board, and adj
ded 70 which a weight Of three tons is ne
cessary to submerge the vessel, even when it
is overloaded. Having for some time been
perfeciing their arrangements, Capt. Hun
SON and Capt FrfCH- started from the bat
terry at eleven O'Clock yesterday, under full
canvas. The company were entertained by
a handsome collation., where spirited and
earnest speeches were made by Capt JAMES
NJ THOMPSON, ST., Capts. HUDSON and
FTCH. At 2:45 p. NJ, amid the cheers Of
the large number Of friends and well-wish-
ers, the minute little craft set of alongside
of Sandy Hook, and with the two adventu-
rous men on board, set sail over the wide
blue. bound finally for London, and not in
landing to touch land at all before reaching
Cape Finisterre, Portugal. 1t is expected,
il an goes well, that the trip will be made
10 forty days, although provisions have been
laid In for twice that length Of time Capts
HUDsoN and FITCH state that they fully
know she peril and difficulty of the under
taking, and are provided against all contin-
gencies They are well prepared for all pos
sible accidents, and from the metallic life
boat, or the lYGERsoLL patent, out Of which
the Red, Wiiic and Blue is modelled, entire |
sesworthiness is expected, and safe voyage. |
The ship has already undergone severe |
tests in the most difficult seas and lively |
gales

LORD RROUGIIMAN.

From the Paris correspondence Of the
Boston Post June, lO) we extract the follow
ing
Lord BRoUCHAN is now passing a few
days in Prris on his way north from his villa
AZ Cannes in the south Of France Though
in his seth year, the old war horse who has
80 often carried havoc and terror into the
ranks Of the conservatives, still retains much
of his pristine vigor. He i ssaid to be as CO.
pious and varied in his conversation and
his gibes are as sarcastic as ever. His de-
yotion 60 the ladies is rs great and his love
for Paris as intense as when years, one
might almost say ages, ago he assisted n
the toilette Of Madame AECANIER or PAU
LINE BoNAI'ARTE- His nasal organ has lost
none Of is development, his eyes none Of
their fire. His plaid pants are as pr0RoRces
and his hands of SIS dubious a tint as of old.
There's life in the old dog yeti May he
long live 10 draw his e5000 pensions and
remind us of the days that are past. He is
said % be amusing his leasure hours by
transating into French his work on the
English Constitution. II he succeeds in
persuading this nation that the English
Constitution is better than his own he will
do well Apropos Of Cannes a characteristic
story Is told Of him at the time of his first
arrival there. lie wished 20 buildea hand
some villa, or as the French say "vH cottage
Bripeie." that would be an additional orna-
ment 10 the enchanting scenery Of the place.
Having consulted the principal contractors
he obtained from each his estimate Of the
cost. To every one be said "How much
will YOU make by the operation? Ali re-
piled absolutely nothing, my Lord. The
iestmates hardly equal the cost Of the
materials. Cone however, was sufficiently
conscientious 10 say. 81 am a poor man
with five children. / have worked hard for
% years. / shall make 10000 francs ifyour
lordship employs me, and hope you will
not think Il too much.' Too much,n said
Lord BBoUGHAaf 81 consider il too little.
I will give You $4,000 francs IL YOU will
prove 20 me the accuracy of your estimate
The man did SO. Lord BBoUGHAN kept
his promise, and when the work was CONF
pleied gave him $4,000 francs more than
his expenses. This anecdote, as the French
say, "a sou prix.' Il is as valuable as
showing the setter side Of a man who has
always bad the reputation Of somewhat
austere and rugged nature.
