Tito Kcnococc'ti i.ouk Voyage?- l'nllcil to Nlo|>. The Italian brig "Anita. S.," Captain .Flosa, with crew and cargo of bones, (those of the cargo bare and phosphor* cscent, those of the crew scantily cov? ered with flesh and skin), arrived in Hampton Itoads Sunday night, being towed in by the tug Hughes, which found her, aimlessly sailing northward, some 75 miles northeast of Cape Henry. She was out from Montevideo (at the tnouth of tho Rio de la Plu(a) since Oc? tober 11, 1898, nearly eight months, and every man aboard was sick with scurvy,, and only live of the crew of nine nble to be about the decks, and these looked ns though they had been sblp mates of "Ye Ancient Mariner." Her last port had been Psnynda, which she left on Christmas day for her run to Baltimore. Head winds nnd calms did the rest. Over a month ago their pro? visions ran low, and since that lime, save for some orange's, witli which a spoken schooner supplied them, their principle diet had been dried salt meat, a favorite scurvy breeder at sea, and even this was falling them, while either from Ignorance of the coast or lapse of memory, through his physical condi? tion, the captain had failed to make the Capes, and was sailing on north without knowledge of his whereabouts. The brig was stopped at quarantine, though not put under isolation rules, nnd a.s soon ns the men arc able will push on to Baltimore.

The American sliin Kcnncbec, Cap? tain Lewis, from San Francisco via Table Ray (South Africa) to Hampton Ronds for orders, arrived yesterday, and will probably either go to Balti? more or come to this port. Tho voyage she hns made Is no light one, and she is a fine looking shin. The schooner Fred Cower, with Cap tnln Cower, her owner, in command, ar? rived here yesterday from New Bruns wick with plaster anil, through lack of knowledge of port rules, passed the In? ner quarantine without stopping, but on bofhg Informed of hi:; unintentional de? selection ret back to the pier.
