calms until the last day out. With her

to a heavy north-northwest gale,swhich, |
though of short duration, was strenu- |
GUS while it lasted. The sea was dashed |
into great pillows, tossing the vessel |
about and filing her decks with water |
The great velocity of the wind made it |
necessary for the sails to be lowered, |
but not before the topsail and two |
staysails had been carried away. For |
tunately, the gale subsidized and the !
Geneva was able to make her entry |
into the harbor early this morning.
