ARRIVAL OF THE F.VGLE .SPEED, FROM LONDON The lino clipper ship Eagle Speed made her anchorage in the harbour yesterday morning, after a protracted voyage of 125 (lays from London She left Gravesewl on the 12th June, and after a succession of adveise wind* down Channel, took her final departure from near Mounted Bay, Cornwall, on the 22nd of June Light variable winds were then experienced ■until crossing the equator, on the Ist Augu?t During the 19 days the ship was detained by these winds, between Cape de Verde Islands and the equator, it was discovered that the main piece of the rudder -was sprung, and that the tiller made nearly double the angle with the chip's keel of that of the tai piece This unfortunate circumstanco considerably impeded the progress of the ship during the remainder of the voyage, as it was found necessary, in oidci to steer the ship at all, to carry much lets *ail than she otherwise would linve done From the equator to the f ape of Good Hope the usual tiado wind* and southerly weather was experienced The island of Tristan D'Acunha v.as made on the 25th August, and the me ridian of the Cape on the Ist September From this point to the S W capo of Tasmania the s>hip liatl, for tlio most part, ite*dy breeze* and fail weather It wa«, however, found impossible to bring out the sailing capabilities of thin fine vessel, in comequence of tlio damage done to tha rudder, even under an ordinary pressure of sail no canvas could be kept on the mizen mi3t Immediately upon the dis;o/ery of the diiabled condition of tho rudder, the necessary precautions wore at once taken, and a spare tiller was forged on board, ready to be shippedat any moment In case of necessity. The New Zoa' land cout was sighted on tlio 13 tli October, and the North Cape rounded on the following day, Cape Brett being passed on Saturday 'Moderate wiud* from the N.K have prevailed on the const. Th« above report will account for the protracted and tediout passage of this vessel. Before leaving Auckland a new rudder will be shipped, and wo have no doubt tho fine qualities of this clipper ship will be brought out on her return trip. The Eagle Speed is in command of Captain Brinsden, who, it will be lemembeied, came here lait year in command of the "William Milts Captain Brinsden has, on this occasion, won the esteqm of the passenger"), who speak of him in the highest terms, and the neat and cleanly appearance of tho iship npon entering the harbour is highly commendable The total number of pussdngors on board is 191, a large number of whom 'arc for the Clmreli of Englimd Settlement, and have received fiee passage.
