Dwellers in those colonies havo no idea of the preantions taken by this company for the afety and comfort of passengers in the rough and boisterous Atlantio trade. Every berth carries a life-belt (as do the ships of the Union Company), whilst patent lifeboats and rafts aro Btowed at every convenient corner of the deck.

Tho man who, when aßked the time, looks at bis watch and, after having got a glimpse of the sun's position and gone through a few arithmetical o&lr _ v . latio on his fingors, tells you " Oh, a> jOU t twenty or twenty-five minutes to ono/' • car . ries a gold chronograph, or some , other " graph," whioh cost him twenty g> ji neaa to buy, and as much more to keep ' going at all.
