Sept. 20.  
  Forenoon sunny and pleasant with moderate W. wind. P.M.
cloudy the wind hauling to W. by S. and increasing to a strong
breeze which soon raised a humpy sea. Evening rainy.

  Spent most of the day in the smoking room talking and writ-
ing a little. There were no services but there was some playing
and singing in the saloon and in the evening some excellent
singing by the emigrants on the lower deck led by a professional
tenor, one of  the Christy Minstrels it is said.

  We passed two streamers, on late in the afternoon bound W.
the other in the early evening bound E. Signaled the latter
with Roman candles.

  No birds, whales, porpoises, nor other animals seen to-day
by any one so far as I could learn.
