Towards night, Mr. Tynaus, our chief engineer, reported the coal fast going, and in order to get a fresh supply to continue our operations among the fishermen, Captain Wood turned for Halifax, and at dark we were dashing off thirteen knots an hour towards Cape Sable. Wednesday, 17th.--At 6 o'clock, when I woke were on Brown's bank, about forty miles from the cape. It was a dull, smoky day, the sea calm and the air cool.

One coming in our way, was captured — the fishing schooner North America, of New London, Connecticut. David Mainwaring, master.

It consists of a low barouche, drawn by four elegant and fiery "thoroughbreds," with postillions mounted on the left or "near" horse of each pair. Two footmen, in extreme livery, are suspended from a high seat on the back of the carriage, technically called the "bramble." The barouche is lined with rich satin damask, and the outside trimmings are of heavy gilt. The postillions are dressed in buckskin breeches and high-top boots, with black silk velvet jackets and caps highly ornamented with gold lace.
