trip. Yesterday tho ship Excelsior, forwboi<safety considerable apprehension bad b' en felt, turned up safely, after a passage of 150 da>s from London. The reason of her protracted passage was on account of an accident which btfel her off the Island of T'istin U'Acunba, au'l which nccestitaUd her pu*ting into the Cape, where nho stayed for three weeks The Margaret, schooner, came in shortly afterwards from iJunedin, with general cargo.—Auckland News.

Tho favourite steamship Great Britain, after her usual noj'un in port, clcartd (iv*. at the Cußtonw yesterday for the return vovngo to Liverpool, und was to leave hflr anchorage at djy reak this morning. The rash of passcngeru to the old count y at th'H particular season of tho year is seldom v«ry extensive, but the *' Britain," owing to her w'-11-established reputation, has securada faiehaieof those going. Although her passenger accommodittiun is by no means so densely packed as on previous voyages, she take* over fifty in the saloon and 300 in the second and third cabins. On fre ght, she take* over 62,000 ounces of gold and a large quantity of wool and other col niml products. Th« reports which have of late been circu lated with regard to -Captain Gray's alleged retirementfromtbecommand of this fine steamer, with which ho has been so long and intimately idemififd, have been satisfactorily set at rest. Captain Gray himself, who has given public and prominent denial to the rum< ur, states in his own honvly honest way that he is resolved, please God, to make many more voyages ia the noble old ship, and in fact to remain by her as long as be and it hold together, »nd the owners and th<^ public continue to appreciate his services. I)r Alexander, who has faithfully attended for so many voyages to the medical welfam of the thousands < f passengers the Great Britain has conveyed to and from this colony, has now severed ha connection with the old ahip, and intends settling in Victoria to practise his profession. His place on the return voyage will be filled by the surgeon who re cently arrived here with the clipper ship Lightning.—Argus, Bth inst.
