The topsail Bchooner Grace Dent, which arrived at Sydney last Tuesday from the Kaipara, had a very rough run across. Ib was on the "4th inst. thab the little schooner met the climax of the bad weather abe had been experiencing, and which has left traces of its severity, having blown one of the sails to ribbons and carried away a portion of the bulwarks on both sides. The deck was constantly flooded while tho storm prevailed, and all on -board had an anxious timeof it. The etorm abated very quickly on the sth inst., but the weather after continued, unsettled till arrival.

; The contractors for the removal of the sunken ship Cape Verde, in Hpbson'a BayPort Phillip, have been allowed six months to complete the work, but hope to finiab ib in three months. They ./^propose to cut. the vessel in fc#b. from end to end, with dynamite laid in tubes like a hose. This will leb the hull open, but, so thab whatever mud may have washed, in can be 'scoured away, and the iron plates and other material of the hull can then be gob up. There are, about one hundred tons ot rails in the vessel, which, with any'other realisable recovery from the wreck, "the Customs Department will sell to set off against the cosb of the contract., .
