. Records of the Scottish settlers in the River Plate and their churches. , with few stirringadventures to relate. Passengers who have been drifting fordays in mid-ocean in a disabled steamer, and at length reachland in safety, do not care to bring to mind the terrors of thedeep which they had encountered, and feel a disinclination tospeak on the subject.
