JTThis vessel was signalled early yesterday morning. The s.s Gazelle, with the healtli officer and reporters, went off and found that all was well on board. She is an old trader to New Zealand, having visited both Dunedin and Wellington, and was at the latter port last. year. She is a wooden ship, and was one of Patrick Henderson’s, but is now the property of Shaw, Saville, and Co. Every one on board seems pleased with their passage, which appears to have been a line weather one, though rather long. She brings -12 passengers, and her commander. Captain D. T. Roberts, late of the Pleiades and Caducis, seems to have earned the goodwill of all. She shipped 22 prize sheep lor J. Wilkin, Esq, which have arrived in splendid condition, with the exception of two that died during the passage. They are Lincolns, and no doubt will be eagerly hailed by our leading sheep breeders. She saw no land, no ice, and no ships during the passage. The following is the captain’s report Left Gravesend on August 16th, and lauded the pilot at Dartmouth on August 20th. Crossed the equator on September 22nd, and the meridian of Greenwich on October 13th. In the latitude sf Cape of Good Hope on October 18th, and was off Tasmania on November 14th. Made the Soares on the 20th inst, and was off Port Chalmers at noon on the 23rd, arriving in port on the 25th, thus making the passage in 101 days. The weather lias, on the whole, been favorable. She is consigned to Edwards, Beanett, and Co. THE JNO. NICHOLSON. An unexpected arrival took place yesterday. Early in the morning the Jno Nicholson was signalled, bnt it was thought that it must be a mistake, as! no such ship was expected, and that it must be the Pleiades. However, on going oil’to her we found it was the Jno Nicholson, from Mauritius, with 300 tons of sugar on board. She is 33 days out from Port Louis, and brings no passengers. Her crew of 18 are all well. She is a nice wooden ship, belonging to Anuan, in Scotland, and was built for the China trade, and has been employed in it till lately. Site is owned by the same merchants as the celebrated clipper Annandale, and is a fine ship.
