The schooner Lark arrived at Sydney from Fyi on the 3rd inst, The barque Laira, from Port Chalmers, bound to Fremantle (W.A.), which put into Hobart in distress, has just come off the slip there after undergoing repairs.

The ship has been built for Messrs. Atkinson and Snape. She is of 2000 tons net, and is 264 feet in length 40 feet in breadth (moulded), and 26 feet in depth.

THE BARQUENTINE ADELAIDE. The barquentine Adelaide arrived at Sydney from the Thames on June 30. Captain Dam reports that he sailed from the '

Thames on the 7th ultimo, and from leaving the Bay of Islands had little else than a continuation or gales. For seven days without a break it blew almost a hurricane from W.N.W., and four clays his vessel was hove to. Up to the 17th of June there was scarcely a fine day. But better luck awaited him, a fine nor' easter drawing easterly setting in, before which he set every stitch, and in three days logged 600 knots to the good. Then a change. The nor'-easter fell away, and the ominous calm succeeded, quickly followed by a burst from uor'-west again, that gradually reached the force of a strong gale. From that out N.VV. to S.VV. I gales were continuous to almost within sight of Sydney Heads. In the bad weather the starboard bulwarks were stove in, also a boat, but the damage is inconsiderable when the heavy seas the vessel shipped are taken into account. The Adelaide has gone to Cowper Wharf, where she will land her cargo of white pine. Afterwards she goes to Newcastle to load coal for Auckland, and thence to the Thames for timber for Sydney.

THE MARY E. RUSSELL. Captain Nickels, of the American barque Mary E. Russell, which arrived at Dunedin from New York on the 7th instant, supplies the following report of the voyage—Left New York on March 24, with a westerly breeze, which hauled to N.W. on the following day, and was followed by a succession of strong gales for the next week. Thence she had moderate winds and weather, and took the N.E. trades in lattitude 24 N. on April 8; they were moderate, and gave out in latitude 2 J(.. and after a short spell of doldruin weather she crossed the equator on April 24, in longitude 28 W., taking up the S.E. trades on the following day, in 0"30 S. The trades were light and well to the southward; they gave out in latitude 20 S., and were followed by variable winds down to longitude 10 W., where the steady westerlies set in. She crossed the prime meridian on May 27, in latitude 41 S., and rounded the Cape of Good Hope on May 29, in latitude 40 S. From the meridian of the Cape down to longitude 60 E. she encountered a succession of gales from N.E. to N. W., with heavy seas and very low barometrical indications, the glass falling as low as 28' CO. During this weather the vessel was kept under very easy sail, and no casualties occurred. She crossed the meridian of Cape Leu win on June 21; had moderate winds with occasional rains; passed the island of Tasmania on June 29, and sighted the Snares at 5 a.m. of the 3rd instant; had variable winds along the coast. No vessels were spoken, nor was ice or wreckage seen. The Mary E. Russell will be remembered as having loaded at this port some years ago for New York for Messrs. Arnold, Cheney, and Co.
