We were then about three hundred miles to the westward of the island of St. Michael—latitude 35 deg. north, longituce 80 deg. west. We accordingly bore aown upon her and came close alongside, whea a@ boat was lowered from the corvette and the first ofticer came on board ofus. He told us that nis vessel was the Austrian corvette Hellgo- Jand, bound from Calcutta and St. Helena to Titeste, that they had been caught in the hurri- cane of the 2ist of November, that their rud- der was disabled and their boilers would not con- tain steam, and, in conclusion, stated he wanted to be towed tu St. Michael, which we agreed to do, and he returned to nis ship.

During the cruise sie bad | visited Rio Janeiro, Jamaica, Barvbaaos, Havana, &c. During the passage she had experienced much heavy weather, which tested the seaworthi- ness of the ship and the seawansnip of ber crew to the juliest extent. She is @ fine cratt, 200 feet long and of 1,800 tons burden. The armawent consists of two heavy Armstrong guns, seven-inch calibre, and four saluting guus.

Her complement of men 1s 268, Tne discipline of the Austrian navy is 8 strict ag that Of our own. Her commander, the Chevalier Wubelm Luna, is the oficey who won much renown at tue battle of Lissa, under the command of the late Commodore Tegethoff, when an Austrian vessel sank the celebrated italian man-ol-war Ke Galantuomo. For his distinguished services on.this occasion the Chevalier was pro- moted to tue grade of srigate captain, which rank he still holds. “THE ROANOKE, — The Iron-clad To Be Removed from the Battery to Winter Quarters in the Navy Yard.
