at the Savannah Florida and Western
Railroad wharves loading a solid cargo
of crossties for New York. The Has
kali is new vessel, having been turn
ed out recently at Rockland, Me-, and
hailing from Boston. She is four
master, and registers Its gross tons.
She is the largest four-m master to visit
the port, not excepting the Coy.
Ames, which was here some years ago.
Capt. MckoWn has every reason to
feel proud of his vessel for she is
model of convenience and safety. Much
is heard of the hard fight the schoon-
er gives steam craft, and this may be
well understood when the conveniences
for officers and crew and the excel
lent facilities for handling cargo on
this vessel are known. The interior
of the cabin is richly finished in hard
wood. Every apartment is large and
commodious, including the state rooms,
saloon, and other apartments of the
vessel
This is the first trip of the Haskall
South, and she is now loading her
first cargo of lumber. She will load
about 1,500, 600 feet The vessel is

parstus is installed throughout such
