In a race between the first American ship, Washington, and the Britannia, the British vessel won by two days. With the inauguration of the Col- lins line in 1850, the Cunard Company met with keen competition; but they held their own, and In 185 they added the Persia to their fleet, and she averaged a speed of 13.1 knots per Lour—which eclipsed every previous performance by any steamer. The average length of passage from Liv- erpool to New York was then tweive days. —London Mail. “ —— e The Sea Encroaching. That the shore of tne gulf upon which Galveston is situated is gradually sinking is a fact which cannot be disregarded. A city which had an elevation of only twelve feet at most cannot last long even | with a subsidence of cne to two feet In a century. Direct evidence of the ge ; eral sinking of the Atlantic coast is given | by the configuration of the land. Even the historical record shows that, though im- | perceptible in a single year, the advance | of the sea is consideratle when decades are compared and enormous when meas- | ured by centurle New York Po: | OCEAN TRAVEL.
