spite of this enormous proportional
breadth, she can steam sixteen knots in
the hour and as she floats very high,
drawing only seven feet of water, and
consequently is an exceedingly light ship,
the experts we're prepared to find that
she would suffer exceptionally from collision
with high seas. This, however, was not
the case. In the Bay of Biscay, the Liva-
dia encountered q full Biscayan gale, but
the angle of her roll was never above 4o. nor
the angle of her pitch above 80, and Sir e.
Reed says that her behaviour was far superb
or in every way to that of vessels of ordina-
~ construction. The dinner-table was served
Just as if the ship were at anchor in port,
at the full height Of the gale; the broad,
covered gallery, which extends all round
the open deck, was never reached by the
sea, and hardly by the spray, except at the
height of the storm. One of the small
compartments in front was stove in and
filed with water; bnt Sir e. Reed believes,
from examination, that this was due to
some collision with q piece of wreck, and
not to any sea at all The severe blows of
the sea on the fiat bottom appeared to
have had no effect whatever.-Epectatof.
