We were hoping to get in or off Saint Mary's in the morning, when it fell calm; and there we lay, with our sails flapping idly, and rolling in the swell of the Atlantic, which came in from the southward.  We could see through our glasses the Longships Lighthouse on one side and the light-vessel on the other, while the Scilly Islands rose blue and indistinct out of the ocean.  One tide carried us to the northward; but in the next we regained our lost ground.  It was, however, very tantalising, as we were anxious to ascertain what had become of the Dolphin.
