This barque arrived in harbor on Friday night, and anchored off the breakwater. She is a German vessel of 400 tons, commanded by Captain Vogt, and was built some ten years ago at Schleswig. Her cargo consists of about 600 tons Yankee notions, all for this port, and she comes consigned to Messrs Edwards, Bennett, and Co. The voyage has occupied 127 days, and when we consider that the run to the Equator occupied 47 out of this we may come to the conclusion that the passage is a very fair one for such a small vessel. The Androklos met with a very severe gale off the Cape of Good Hope, and strained so much that she has been leaking ever since, but only slightly. Tne following is the captain’s reports of the trip: —Left New York July 12th, and had light and variable winds to the Equator, which was crossed 47 days out in 27deg W., there having been no N.E. trades, the ship being on a bow-line the whole time. The S. E. trades were very light, and when they failed light and variable winds were experienced to the meridian of the Cape, which was crossed 80 days out. The day after a fearful equinoctial gale was encountered, which carried away main topsail yard and did other damage aloft. A heavy sea swept her decks, carrying away the longboat, and owing to the vessel’s straining so heavily a leak was sprung. Ran before the gale for some 20 hours, and then had to bring to. Luckily a few hours after the gale abated. Ran down the easting in 40deg. S., experiencing strong westerly gales to making Bass’s Straits, which were passed through on November 4th. Thence had fine westerly and northerly weather to making Cape Farewell on the 12th. Came through Straits on the 13th with N.W. wind, and had northerly breezes down the coast, arriving as above. When off Cape Farewell Capt. Vogt saw some rough timber floating in the water, and the body of a man. There was a fresh breeze and a high sea running, so he did not lower a boat. SHIPPING TELEGRAMS.
