She was designed for and has from her first trip been employed by them between the ports of Aspinwall and this city, She was a carefotly con.

In Auguat, 1868, her hull was sheathed in metal. She had beam engines, with cylinders and stroke piston, She was inspected to 1870, and then was rated as Al of the first class. This rating evidences her to have been & brigantine as good as leaves this hurber. Captain Gray, her commander, is Known as a cool man tr any emergency, and tt ts probably to thia quality and the aid that itis believed he exacted from his crew that the passengers are indebted for their lives if a disaster has occurred, The flames are described to have overmasiered the efforts to subdue them, and it could only have been by the most tndomitable perse- verance and calm pluck in fighting against them that it was possible to bring the vessel to where itt dreading passengers could escape from tt.
