WAVES POUND STEAMER. The officers and crew of the British In'dia Line steamer Nowshera, of 7920 tons, which reached Outer Harbour, Adelaide, on June 21, had a terrifying experience on the voyage from Cape Town. For two days in the middle of the Indian Ocean the vessel was swept by waves 40 feet higffi The steamer battled against head winds and rough weather all the way from Cape Town. So violently was the vessel pounded that she was hove-to, and then for 36 hours was driven out of her course for about 80 miles. A lifeboat was badly damaged, and portion of the bridge was washed away. Two windows of the wheelhouse were smashed. The officers stated that the storm was the worst ever experienced in that part of the ocean. SHIPPING TELEGRAMS.
