The vessel has been newly coppered, and thoroughly overhauled under the superintendence of Lloyds’ surveyor, who inspected her bolts, treenails, &c, and expressed himself perfectly satisfied. The cabins of the vessel were newly painted, as also her masts. The Mary Blair on hauling alongside the wharf was visited by a large number of persons, and the general expression of opinion was that she is a very line specimen of a clipper. The vessel will be loaded with a cargo of timber, &c, sailing for Lyttelton, New Zealand, about Wednesday ; thence she will proceed to China, and will afterwards, most probably, be placed by her owners in the China tea traffic.
