I followed it with mv eye, until it vanithotl in the dittanee, when my attention wa» attracted by a dark speck far out in the lifting, with a tittle tiny white tail. With my glut* I made it out to be a ship'a buat, but I saw no one on board, and the tall waa idly flappiug about the matt. On making my report I wat deiired to pull toward* it in the |$ij;i aridas we approached, one of the crew tatdhe thought he aaw some one peering over the bow.
