The schooner Robert Levers arriv-
ed yesterday morning from Honolulu,
after the by no means fast trip of IS
days, but Capt. Goodman was speedy
enough to win a very nice race with
the barkentine Newsboy that left the
Hawaiian islands the same time as the
Robert Levers, says the Chronicle of
the 9th. All of the island boats have
been making slow time lately on ac-
count of unfavorable winds, and it was
a case of good seamanship that would
tell in the race. Though pitted against
square-rigger, Capt. Goodman won
the match by six hours, as the News
boys came into port in the afternoon.
