Hos Red:n har plats blifvit begärd för nedanskrifne uppsats: To the editor of the Göteborgs Handelsoch Sjöfarts-Tidning. Sir! The great publicity of your paper in Sweden and particularly in Gothenburg has induced me to ask the favour of your kind assistance in doing an act of common justice to a gentleman, whose energy and circumspection have become conspicuous under the trying circumstances, which he had to go through, and J should therefore feel very much obliged to you publishing the following lines about the passage of the St. George? fromf Hull to Gothenburg. The St. George, Capt. Hindhaugh, left Hull on Nov. 23 on her voyage to Gothenburg. After steaming about 24 hours under a severe gale, her engine broke, the gale inereased to a perfect hurricane and her position became so dangerous, that Capt. Hindhaugh saw himself obliged to scek shelter in Christiansand. Her bulwarks were partly smashed by the were violence of the waves and the sea threatened several times to carry away even the saloon and everything on board, so that the St. George would have been a lost ship without the good judgment and activity of Capt. Hindhaugh. Aless energetie man would never have left Christiansand under these circumstances, but the experienced and brave captain of the St. George, trusting in the exertions of his first mate and able crew, by whom he was admirably supported, proceded by canvas to Gothenburg in order to deliver punctually the merchandise entrusted to his care. IIe reached Gothenburg on Nov. 29, after having encountered another severe gale, that drove him a considerable distance off his port. I think it therefore but an act of common justice to express publiely the high admiration, which Capt. IIindhaughs abilities and exertions deserve for reaching Gothenburg under such trying circumstances. One interested in the safe arrival of the St. George.
