already stated, is the first steamer that ever left
New York for the East by that route, and
altogether the voyage IL peculiar. The Spartan

contains 50, 500 or 393620 gallons. The cargo is

heretofore being that the commodity was too

the oil is now selling at high prices, in advance
OF the cargoes sent by sailing vessels during JAN

only make the passage in from 1870 to 40 days,
