On Friday, November the twenty-first, at ten chap. 
o’clock in the evening, a bustle in the little fleet > X1 ' 
of Turkish boats announced that thev were all Y oyage to 
getting to sea as fast as possible. The wind had tino r !e - 
veered, after a foggy day, to the w. s. w. ; and 
the atmosphere became perfectly clear. Our 
Captain, following their example, as perhaps 
deeming them more experienced mariners of the 
Black Sea, ordered his crew to weigh the anchor. 
When it came on board, we found it had lost 
one of its flukes : this the sailors considered as 
a bad omen ; and some of them said, if we left 
the port with such an anchor, we should never 
have occasion to use another. We were how- 
ever under weigh; and, spreading all the great 
sails to the wind, soon quitted the harbour of 
Ineada, steering to the south-east. At three in 
the morning of the 22d, we were becalmed, and 
a hazy atmosphere surrounded us on all sides. 
At four, it began to blow a gale from the north; 
and we made our course e. and s. until eight, 
when we discovered the coast near the mouth of 
the Canal of Constantinople, and then steered s. e.
