We learn that letters have been received in Blenheim from Mrs Russell, who sailed for England with her family in the “Hera,” Captain Terkelson having made the voyage from Port Underwood in 95 days.

The rejoice also to be able to state this young widowed lady and her family will bo amply provided for, as her friends at home are working in concert with those in the Colony for her future support.
