"Wo copy from yesterday's Government Gazette the following 1 notice of a Huoy having been placed on tho dangerous Rock in the Wailieki passage, lately reported by Commander Drury of 11. M. S. Pandora:— Notice to Maiunlrs. — A black painted ensk Huov lias been placed over the centre of the rocky ledgn at the Southern end of the Waiheke passngo. As the shoal is of considerable extent, ve^ols drawing much water should not pass within a cable's length on cither aid* 1 of tho Buoy. To the generality of coasting vessels it is not dangerous. In case of accident to the Buoy, the shoal may easily bo avoided by keeping- towards Pumii Island, on the Enstorn side of the passage. — David Rough, Harbour Mostor. The brig Spencer ai rived on Thursday night, fifteen days from Melbourne, whence she sailed on the 20th wit. Vessels from England, of heavy tonnage, were arriving almost every day al Port Phillip. The Formosa, P. &0. C. steamer, m rived on the JGlh Oct., and H. M. serew -steamer Vulcan, with troops, arrived on the IJhh : she was in quarantine when the Spencer left. The following vessels, from England, were entering the Heads as the brig was leaving, all of them with emigrants of one class ov other onboard : — Windsor, Emily, Gloster, Lady Fitzherbert, and Apoline ; and theZ.ua from Sydney. Besides these, there weio six large vessels, ciowded with passengers, at anchor inside ihe Heads, waiting for Pilots — and three passenger ships were tiding quarantine. The Governor Wynyard, steamer, of this port, whs plying with much succesffbetween Melbourne and William's Town, making three trips daily. The Lucy James, also of this pott, w/is sold at Mtlbourne for £700. We notice thar New Zealnnd pine is quoted in the latest Melbourne Pi ice Current at £l to JCI 10s. per 100 feet.

The Formosa.— The second steamer belonging to tbe P. & O. S. N. Company 'arrived on Saturday from Southampton, which port she left at 3 p.m. on SaturJay, August 7, thus making the passage in seventy days, flic shortest space of time yet occupied in communicating between England ami Melbourne. When it is born in mind that she cnllod at Teneriffo, August 15, staying there, until the 17th, at St. Helena, September 3rd leaving September 4th, and at the Cape of Good Hope, September 13, sailing thence September 17th ; thus being detained nearly seven days, and that on her passage from the Cape her screw propeller was disconnected for fifteen days, her character for speed will be oonsideied fully established. And even during the time when her propeller was disconnected, she averaged upwards of two hundred and twenty miles daily. She brings out her full complement of passengers, about forty-five thousand pounds in specie for this port, and one hundred and foity-five thousand for Sydney. A few day a ago she spolce the Maria and Marian, ships from England; and likewise reports the Meteor, barque, from London, having put into the Cape for provisions, bound to this poTt. We learnt on board the above vessel theftbe Sydney A. It. M. S. N. Company's steamer had left Plymouth, August 3rd ; but it was reported just previous to the leaving of the Formosa that she had returned to port disabled. — Argus, Oct 18. The Great Britain was to leave on the 21st August ; •ho was to have 1,000 passengers, and had engaged 650 •econd-class, and 250 first-class ditto, and wanted 100 first-class passengers to perfect her compliment.— Ib. Tbe St. George, from Sydney, had passed Portsmouth in the night. She sent in passengers and mails by a pilot boat. Her cargo in gold and wool was valued at upwards of £250,000 sterling. —I/». The advertising columns of the Times are ciowded with lists of vessels laid on the berth for this port. Besides those we have already giren wo notice the following: — The Atlanta, 1300 tons, to sail from London, August 25th ; the Oreßtes, 1000 tons, from Plymouth, 15(h 'August; Woodstock, 1500 tons, and Albatros, 1600 lons, in September; Gloriana, 1200 tons, August 25th. Eight hundred emigrants had sailed for Poit Phillip in twenty-four hours, on Sunday, Ist Au»us,t. Of these 2ro2 r 0 left in the Dinnpore, 250 in the Chnlmerß, and about 140 m the Admiral, and the remainder »in other vessels. — Ib. H. M. Screw steamer Vulonn, 1748 tons, commander Donop, fioin Cork, July isth,i 5th, arrived nt the Cape of Good Hope (Simon's Bay), September 13th, having on board Lieutenant-Colonel Valiant, twenty officers, five hundied and ninety-six men (40th Regiment), sixtynine women and sixty children for this port; — she may therefore bo daily expected expected... The Ellen has made a good passage of 93 days from Liverpool. Two deaths occurred on the passage — one man jumped overbonrd in a state of insanity, and another died from consumption... The Lady Eveline from London arrived on Friday afternoon .with nearly three hundred passengers. On the health officer hailing her, it was deemed necessary fiom the answers received, to place her in quarantine as twenty-five cases of small pox had occurred on the voyagp, two of which had proved fatal : the cases -of Mr. Joseph Ilarewood, and an infant named Waller Cocker. There is another case at present on boaid, but it is hoped the patient is covalescent. A Mrs. Wilkirihon died of consumption, and a seaman from dysentery. Even if no fresh c<ises occur, the vessel will have to remain for six weeks longer in her present unfortunate position. On the 21st of July she ppoke the Diadem, bound for Port Phillip. — Jbid.
