The schooner Caledonia hes now finished her loading, and though a large vessel for the river, only drawing now six feet of water, will be able as soon as the tides serve to get out with the rest of the little fleet at present in river. On Saturday, though the sea was very high, the two parts of the ps Sturt having broken almost through the centre, had not parted company. Efforts are being made to recover as much of the wreck as possible ; which has, we believe, been resold since the auction by Mr Oram to Belcher and Fairweather. Th.c report of the inquiry in another column will show that the mishap was a pure accident, and no blame can attach to the vessel's chief officer, Captain Dyaaon, the pilot, or any one.
