GRAIN FLEET READY.
FOR AUSTRALIAN TRADE. Captain Gustaf Erikson’s’ fleet of windjammers is ready to sail for Australia, states the Helsingfors correspondent of the London Times writing on September 19. The Pamir and the Passat are due to sail from Mariehamn (Finland) to-day, and six others in the next week to two from Gothenburg (Sweden). Others tire at Ipswich and Belfast awaiting orders, -although the Ponapo has been sold, and probably will be broken up, the L’Avenir will probably be sold to a Danish firm, and the Parma was recently sold in England. A number of passengers will sail to Australia, from Copenhagen.
