FAMOUS CLIPPER SHIP LIGHTNING. One of the most remarkable wooden vessels ever built was the clipper ship Lightning, says the Sydney Daily Telegraph. Her dosigner and buiidcr, Donald M’Kay, of East Boston, is recognised as the greatest shipbuilder that the United States ever had, indeed, many Americans claim that he was a genius, who stood out head and shoulders above every other naval architect of his day. Certainly he never made a failure, unless that uptried leviathan, the Great Republic,, can be counted as a failure. Every one ol his ships had her own peculiar characteristics but they resembled each other in one great quality, which was tremendous speed in hard winds. And if her performances may speak for her, the Lightning possessed this quality to a greater degree than any other ship, either before or since. Twice she made 24-hour runs, at an average of 18 knots, the day’s work being on these occasions 43G and 430 miles. The Lightning was the first of four very famous ships, designed and built by Donald M’Kay to the order of that 'remarkable shipping personality, James Ba-ines, the founder of the Liverpool Black Ball Line of Australian packets. In October, 1869, the ship, which had just completed loading wool at Geelong, took fire, and was finally scuttled. OVERSEAS SUMMARY.
