An Extraordinary Voyage. What a nautical journal declares to have been "ano of the most extraordinary voyagen ever made acrom the Atlantic" was recently completed by the Vigilant, a small -- tag belonging to New York, which port she left for Cardif, Wales, on October IL She experienced fer- rifo weather, and sent out 8.0.8; calls when the captain feäred she would founder. The steamer Byndam took off the captain and twelve of the Vigilant's orew. Three men-Ferguson, a Scot; Waleb, an Irishman; and John Smith, an American-elected to stick by the tag. They brought her into port on November 1; har ing been at their pcata fifty hours without food, water, or sleep. Scotland, Ireland, and America may well be proud of men like these.-Outlook.
