e delivered from such a pitiable situation)— only twelve days and a half—the shortest ever made by any other vessel. The mammoth steamer President, which sailed three days before us, did not arrive in New York until after the arrival of the Acadia in Boston! There were few incidents that occurred on our passage that would be of any interest to you. A sea-voyage is usually very monotonous; and, situated as dear Rogers and myself were, ours was uncommonly so. We saw quantum suff. of Mother Carey's chickens, spouting whales, tumbling porpoises, and winged flying-fishes. Now and then we saw (and it is always a pleasant sight at sea) a sail in the distance, but did not speak any, except in a single instance. We were surrounded by a dense fog for several days, which impeded our progress, and made it dangerous to run at full speed: it hindered us at least one day on the passage. The weather was generally very fine: only for about forty-eight hours did the wind blow a gale against us.
