Two gentlemen from Venezuela arrived
in Portland yesterday morning for the
purpose of purchasing schooner to use
in the West Indian trade. They are
looking for beamy vessel of about one
hundred tons that will be suitable to
carry cattle on from Venezuela to Cuba
and the other West Indian islands. The
gentlemen bear the names of Il Balliache
and H. Wendehake.
Z The schooner Grace Davis. Captain
Dodge, had her flag at half mast yester-
day morning out of respect to Captain
Dodge's father who died suddenly at
South Portland Sunday.
The Horatio Hall of the New York line
was locked with difficulty yesterday
afternoon on her arrival from New York
owing to the strong wind and tide and
the fact that one of the English steamers
took up good part of the channel. The

assist in docking the big steamer.
