weight and measurement is made up Of the usual
Yankee notions, and includes 1000 cases OF Kerosene

Captain Havener reports leaving Boston on March
1Sth with light N. w. wind, which held for three
days, and was succeeded by a n. f. breeze for two
days. On the ODD March, the wind came out of the
s. +. quarter, and treshened to heavy gale, which
brought the ship to the wind, and compelled her TO
heave to for IA hours when it moderated, and veercd
round to 5. W., and held between that point and
west to the 29th of March. For the four following
days the wind was north, and, after being beeamed
for one day. she fell in with the n. f. Trade the
5th April in 20 deg. North latitude. 1t proved good
