A PERnous PASSAGE
Arrival Of . Vessel That Was in an Ic,
Pack Seven Days.

Arrival Of Q Vessel That Was in an Tee
Pack seven Days. "
PHILADELPIr1A, July 27.-The bark
1vigtut, which arrived yesterday from
Ivigtut encountered remarkably
stormy and perilous passage, occupying
in all forty-eight days. during which
forty-seven icebergs were passed. She
sailed on June and on that day became
fast, jammed in an ice pack, the area
Of which could not be determined from
aloft. As far as the eye could
reach nothing but long waste
Of thickly packed ice could be
seen. Little or no headway could be
made. For seven long days and nights,
amid great sufferings, the battle with
the ice continued, and finally the craft
found herself gliding through clear
water once more. On the following day
the thermometer gave indications Of ice
again, and it was but a short time until
twenty-five tremendous, glittering mon
sters loomed up in full view On the 18th
seventeen bergs equally as large were
sighted, and on the 10th five were seen.
Favorable winds carried the Ivigtut be-
yond further distractions of the kind.
