excessive swell in her bilge lately increased by Mr..
Douglas by "inpping"--that Is. by piankng on the

Sappho more buoyancy under the large cloud OF
canvas which she spreads in all weathers; but IL is
doubtful II she has gained in speed--at least this Is
the impression OF her former owners. Perhaps IL
might be well to say she has little to gain In this par
