Tiie Swedish bq. Anna, which arrived yostorday,
adds another to the long list of Scandinavian vessels
now in port. The Anna, which has not previously
visited Melbourne, is quite a superior vessel of her
class, and though not a new ship is kont in oxcellent
order and shows to advantago from whatever point
of view she is looked at. She is commanded by Cap
tain Uddenberg, who reports that after tilling up with
\ a freight of lumber she took lier departure from Port
' \ Townsend on 2nd November, and was almost imine-
V \diatcly assailed by a very heavy gale from the
\W.S.W. quartor, tho wind blowing with almost hur-
cano force and raising a high cross sea. The
X v »rm lasted 48 hours, and the vessel was novo to
whole of that time, but sho behaved well
. (tamo through it without damage, al
ii \ tho decks v/ero frequently Hooded. After
\tly light N.E. winds were met with down
Vo£ which was crossed on 6th Decetnbor
he S.E. trades, which wero found ontlie
"S "inwlorato, nod gave out in 20 S., whoro
they were succeeded by light variable winds. These \
continued until 4tU inst., when tho Anna again
had an encounter with the elements, a hard pile
setting in from S.W. and lasting for thrae days, out
without tho vessel meeting with any mishap.
Mwlerato weather followed till Kent's Group was
Passed on the 13th inst., when the wind died away
and tho vessel was becalmed for 24 hours. A light
S.W. breozo then sprang up, and carried tlio barque
to tho Heads, which wore entered on Tuesday
afternoon, tho Bay being roached yesterday
morning.
The Chili is another barque flying tho Swedish
ensign, -which has arrived in the Bay. Sho is from
Geflo, laden with deals, and in regard to her voyage
Capt. Sangstron reports that sho sailed on 2nd
September, and experienced moderate easterly ami
northerly winds till passing tho Lizard on 20th
September, when the wind increased and the
weathor became squally. Easterly aiul light vari
ables— there being little or no N.E. trades— followed
down to the equator, which was crossed in 28.46
west on 6th November, the 65th day out. In tho
S.E. trado belt tho winds wero very poor,
and . in 19 south they wero succeeded by the
westerly winds, which, however, proved only
moderate in forco and variablo in direction.
Crossing tho meridian of tho Capo on 8th Decem
ber in 40.15 south, the Chili made her longitude
between tho parallels of 42 and 43 south. Tho wind
proved verv unsteady, veering right round tho com
pass and blowing very hard when it got to N., and
casing off as it veered round to S.W. again. Tho
meridian of the Lcuwin was passed on the 2nd insb. ,
and a. fair start was had for a few days, but aftor
that the vossel had to thjrasUher way along against
N.E. winds up to Cape Otway, which was passed on
tho 14tli inst. A S.S. K. breeze then came away and
carried her to the Heads.
Tiik Dagmar is a tino looking Danish brig which
reached tho Bay yesterday, sugar laden, from
Mauritius, Tho Dagmar sailed on 11th December,
with light S.K. trades, which, howover, were soon
followed by E. and N.E. winds, which lasted until
21st December, when the weathor became un
settled, and on 23rd December culminated in a S.E.
gale, which blew very hard for a couple of days with
the usual accompaniments. S. W. winds then set in
and continued until tho 12th inst., when another
heavy gale was encountered off tho Otway, but as
before the brig weathered it safely. Moderato
winds followed ' till arrival, the Bay being reached
at 10.30 yesterday morning.
The Medbor, the socornl Norwegian barque to
arrive yesterday, belongs to tho samu owners as tho
Zomacn, which arrived from Archangel on Tues
day, viz., Messrs. Jorquensou and Co., of Grimstad.
Like her, sho is a now vessel, now on lier maiden
voyage, and also liko her sho is an exceedingly
creditable specimen of Norwegian shipbuilding,
though somewhat heavier looking in regard to hull
tiian tho Zemacli. Tho Medbor i.s from Dramen
with a freight of boards, and Capt. Jonsuii lupoi U
that she beran lier vovago on 13th September, ami
going "north about" experienced light winds anil
callus till passing Fair Isle on 23rd September,
when northerly and NAV. winds wore met with and
ran her down to 30 N. There, instead of
picking up the trades as was expected,
tho Medbor had to contcud with southerly
and S.W. winds for a fortnight, and then poor N.E.
winds followed down to about 7 north. Variablo
S., S.E. and S.S.E. winds, light, ensued, and lasted
till tho equator was crossed on 7th November in 27
west, but after that good winds wero experienced
down as far as 35 south, where tho south-east trades
gave out. Variablo and unsteady winds were had
theuce to 38 sonth, and then the westerly winds
were picked up, but they wero very unsteady, .some
times backing to N.E. Tlio Medbor crossed the
moridiun of the Capo of Good Hope in
41 south on 8th December, and made her easting
between the parallels of 40.41 south, and htul mode
rate winds and weather to 23 cast, where sho en
countered a hard blow from N.W. to W., lasting 24
hours, but after that fair weather and good winds
from N. to W. wore had until passing the meridian
of the Leuwinou tho 3rd inst m39.40south;westerly
and S.W. broozes followed for several days, but
after that tlio passage was retarded by the preva
lence of bead winds. Cape Otway was passed on
Tuesday morning, aud tho Heads wero entered at
8 a.m. yesterday.
Tun R.M.fcS. Cartilage, having completed the dis
charge of her cargo for t-lds pore, took her departuro
early yesterday morning for Sydney, in continuation
of her voysge from London. She cleared the lleuds
at 7.10 a.m.
