The Nelson Is commanded by Capt.
Charles Jansen, n Norwegian. For three
days UP to Saturday last, she was fish

Delaware Breakwater. Ihai Hay w sne
York with 400 bushels of sea bass, an
unusually large catch: Head winds were
encountered and the Nelson beat slowly
up the Jersey coast, making short tacks.
Yesterday afternoon the gale became
terrific. Sail was shortened until dou.
ble-reefed foresail was all she cou,d
stagger under. and that was hnally
furled to save 1t from being blown from
the bolt ropes.
Under bare poles the Nelson was
tossed wildly about. Just before dusk
broke over the port bow and threatened
to send the gallan little schooner to
Davy Jones's locker
Louis Hansen; one OF the hands, was vas
caught up by this sea, swept from MS
feet and dashed towards the lee ran,
which is only a foot high. He grasped
the gunwale of one of the dories, lasned
amidships, and hung on for his litc.

her. His escape was a narrow one.
The tubs, lines, oars, water-casks and

The Nelson dashed on under bare
poles and finally ran in behind Red Hook
and rode out the night in safety with
both anchors out.
Capt. Jansen said he did not see any
other smacks last night. The Nelson
was towed from Red Hook this morning,
