WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 24TH.

Passed another comfortable night; found we had been getting on well all

night; the air and water this morning 74 degrees; the wind favourable

from 10 o'clock last night; read Ponreau's "Brief View of the American

Constitution"; also the three remaining of Channing's "Discourses," the

two first, and the two last excellent. Mr. Street mentions a young

gentleman from Boston about to marry one of Mr. Woolley's daughters.

Finished the evening by looking at the "Treatise on Singing."
