The Tyser liner Tomoana is due on Monday to load for Homo. The Shaw Savill and Albion Co.’s Corinthic arrives on Thursday from South to load frozen meat, wool, etc., for London. Several weeks must yet elapse before an effort will be made to raise the sunken barque Norma from the sea bottom at tho Semaphore, Adelaide (says an exchange). Up to the present only 7000 of the 31,045 bags of wheat which are in the holds have been raised by a diver, but work at the vessel has only been of an intermittent. character. Operations have been interfered with by bad weather. The cost of raising the vessel is to bo charged to the Norma’s late owners. At present, somewhere between San Francisco and New York, is probably one of the strangest vessels, from an. ■historic point of view, that it is possible to meet with afloat (says the .“Shipping Illustrated”). The vessel is the historic war junk Whang Ho, which is on her way to be put on exhibition at Coney island, and should her trip prove successful will proceed to London to be exhibited on the Thames. It is in all probability quite safe to say that no more frealdst craft has'ever set sail on a Cape Horn voyage than this old warship, whose history apparently dates back for somewhere about a century.
