The ship Queen of India arrived at Port Chalmers on the 20th hist., fiom London, after a fine passage of 86 days. She had fine weather to the longitude of the Cape ; and the Cape de Verde Islands and Tiistan d'Achuna were sighted. When between 45 ° and 48 ° E. veiy stiong gales from the N.W. were met, and portions of the bulwarks were washed away. Again, fiom Cape Lewin to Tasmania, heavy weather was encountered ; but from thence moderate westerly winds and fine weather prevailed. Tho Queen of India is commanded by Captain Thornton, who is well-known, and who foimeily commanded the Armenia. The Queen of India has brought fourteen cabin and six steerage passengpis ; and they express themselves as delighted with the ship and her captain. — Daily Times. The ship Lizzie Southard, 1044 tons, Capt. A. Arbury, left the Downs on the 28th Febiuary. Had a strong gale from the westward, from the Channel to the Bay of Biscay.

The barques Naval Bi igade, for London, Queen of the Ocean, and the ship Rosalie, for Liverpool, 'took the remainder of the officei s and crew. Had light weather f i om the Equator to the Cape. The passage thence to this port ■was performed in 38 days. John Scott, a steerage passenger, who was suffering ft om consumption, died during the voyage.
