After a voyage of almost seven
months. the ex-coffee clipper barquen-
tine Good News, powderladen, has ar
rived at Tacoma from Wilmington,
Del. So delayed was she that rein
surance on her at one time reached
80 per cent Light winds held her
back considerably, but nearly six
weeks was consumed in beating
around the Horn, and this was follow
ed up by squal in the Southern
Pacific in May that carried away the
foTetopmast and all the vessels
yards. This caused another delay
estimated at about forty days. As il
was, Capt. Ericsson, her skipper, did
very well in getting her into port
even in seven months. A letter from
him to friends in Wilmingt notes
that the vessel is to be sold and in
all probability she will end her days
on the Pacific coast. The Good
News was formerly well known in
the Brazilian coffee trade out of Bal
dmore.-Shipping Illustrated
