Recently acquired by the Aberdeen Line, the cargo steamer Horatius arrived at Sydney from London last month.

When she was acquired by the Aberdeen Line officers were transferred to the vessel from other ships of the company’s fleet. Captain W. J Wil- ' liams, who was last at Melbourne in charge of the Demosthenes, is in command. It is said that the Aberdeen Lino intends to take over two more cargo vessels for the Australian service, hut the names of these vessels are not yet known. On her recent trip the Horatius, which had on board a large cargo and was consequently low in the water, encountered heavy weather while crossing the Bay of Biscay. With the Nerbudda and the Bendigo, both on their way to Australia, she encountered some of the worst of the storm. She was forced to "heave to” for 18 hours, being unable to make any progress against the storm. When she was able to resume it was only at a speed of three knots.
