First, naturally, will coine the account of the voyage across the occan. This will occupy the present letter. The passage from New York to Liverpool took eleven Jays. Sometimes it is made in nine, and often it takes longer. In former'days when peopM Wervlty a sailing vessel instead of by stenra It" would take as may' weeks as ft now takes days. The ship was the " City of London." It was Wo feet long, with plenty of i4Dom to walk  deck for exercise, tVo had about CO «abin passengers, 129 in the "st«rage"-*-aa it is called—and * crcw of abtmt 100 men, making in all nearly 300 persons on board. The steamship is a wonder of itself. Wo heard and fylt the pulsations of the big engino hvfH the time wo left the harbor of New York until we approached the coast of Ireland, and stopped a few moments to meet a little steamboat that came to take newspaper* and dispatches, and send them on in advance of us by some quicker route, and by telegraph fronf the shore. Nothing seemed to get out of ordor for a moment. I thought of the wonders man's gonius had accompli.shod.~And now I.! must tell you something of the great oceaa over which this wonderful invention of man has sccured so safe and rapid a passage. We left the pier in New York on Saturday, the 21st oi October, at 20 minutes of 1. 12 was the hour of starting, but it took a long time to got ready and get the people all on boarcj.
