Trials Of a Tramp
Remarkable Experience of
the Steamer Istrian.

NORFOLK, Va, March IA special
from Newport News to the Landmark
says: "After being out forty-three
days, the steamship Istrain came up to
her pier this morning at s o'clock with
5000 tons Of cargo from Liverpool.
Capt. Dreamer gave your correspondent
the following history of his long voy-
age:
1--WE left Liverpool at midnight on
the 9th day Of January, and had very
severe weather coming down the chan
nel, being obliged to carry our pilot to
Waterford Island, as it was impossible
to land him at the Liverpool pilot sta
ton on account of the heavy weather.
The storm continued till the 9th,
when we had it fair till February I'd,
when we again encountered a heavy
gale from the northwest, lasting nearly
three weeks, becoming so severe at
times that my ship was obliged to stop
aud We were at the mercy Of the sea.
We were then 600 miles from Berrnu-
da, on February 10, for which point
We were making, as there were only
about eighty-fve tons of coal Oh board,
and We we're burning thirty-6ve tons g
day. Up to the Goth, We experienced
the most severe gales and the storm vas
INDISPENSABLE. For five days We had
90 fire at all. If we had kept up steam
during this weather and had tried to
make Bermuda, We would never have
gotten into port. On the night Of the
I'D we we're again compelled to stop,
letting our fires 60 out again. AT mid
night on the 23d the ship started again.
The wind became in u favor, set
available sail and put every man to
work breaking up between decks, bulk
head, cargo, batting, spars, matches
and any available wood. On the morn
ing Of the 26th, we reached Bermuda
With the last stick of wood burnt and
could not possibly have gone ten miles
further.
Considering the very severe wealth
er the Istrain encountered during the
voyage, aud the fact of her having
to stop during the worst of it, and not
being under control, proves her to be a
stauuch and seawortby vessel, notWith-
standing what has been published to
the contrary. Her cargo is in good
condition, and you can see she is none
the worse for wear. Her engines are
good, and the chief engineer is worthy
of praise for the manner 10 which he
handled her."

One More lnsu.,au.

Science is an exacting taskmaster,
to give up time, talents, hope, ambi-
tion, even life itself at the beck and
call of the tyrant. The search for the
North Pole has cost many lives and
more treasure, and yet there is no lack
of enthusiasts who are ready to take
up the work where the last victims
had laid IL down. The latest idea is
to explore this region by means of a
balloon, which seems quite the most
visionary and hopeless of all of the
many fruitless efforts that have been
made in that direction. The effect of
intense cold on the gas in the balloon,
the possibility OF binding storms, the
impossibility of getting out Of trouble
in case of accident, and the certainty
that no rescuing hand could reach the
party, as no one would know where to
find them, should all be considered.
1t may be among the possibilities OF
science TO store gas under pressure
and at such low temperature that ar
amount could be provided sufficient to
bridge over any emergency that might
ar ise ;but in tasks of this kind there is
so much to be looked out for and
guarded against that only tempera-
ment of the most elastic and daring
description would think of going into
it. The history OF explorations is
punctuated with horrors and tragedies
and fringed with the bones of martyrs
to science. This, however, is no bar
to future investigations, and there is
not the slightest difficulty in filling up
the ranks when the order comes to go
forward. New York Ledger.
