Queenstown is the port at which the American mails are landed , which are then forwarded to Dublin by an express train , and from thence to Liverpool -LSB- A -RSB- by fast steamers , thus gaining twelve hours upon the fastest vessels . -LSB- Footnote A : Holyhead . -- _ Trans _ . -RSB- Mr. Fogg calculated upon gaining this space of time , and so , instead of reaching Liverpool next evening , he would be there at noon , and be able to reach London by a quarter to nine p.m. . About one a.m. the _ Henrietta _ entered Queenstown , and Mr. Fogg , exchanging a clasp of the hand with Captain Speedy , left that personage upon the vessel , now a mere hulk . All the party went ashore at once . Fix was much inclined to arrest Fogg on the spot , but refrained .
