There nre at present tlirea large ships in harbour loading, with Now Zealand produce for tyiliforiiiu. Of these, the Incliinnan has mnde*consid -ruble progress, having taken on board a quantity of potatoes, carrots, onions, wheat, barley, oats, maize &c —She, likewise, is intended lo coioey to S,iii I'ranci.-co a considerable portion of pressed hay. We cannot sufficiently impress upon the Native mind the great profit to bo derived from laying down their lands in grasses, so that nut only hay but the remunerating produce of the dairy may bu at their disposal, both for home consumption and exportation. It is only by earnest and indefatigable attention to ngricult;iral and commercial industry that the Native New Zealnnder can hope to tise in the srale of social estimation, or compete with the Kur>>-. peans either settled upon his shores, orscckin ■ them for the purpose of a mutually beneficial of commodities. The Incliinnan will sail early next month. The Lord Stanley is Inst lilling up, and tlievConstant, which arrived on the 17th inst., after a long mid boisterous passage of three during which she lost of twelve very valuable horses, has for about n hundred tons of iheae ships adverted lo take p.nsenger) 1 ,—but we hear of no one anxious lo go, 'he delusion of tils.* gold region having at length ceased lo beguile more victims. The barque Undaunted, 300 tons, Walker, is on the eve of dep.irlore for London with a full cargo of New Ze.ilund Copper Ore from Kawau. Dr. Courtney and 12 invalid soldiers of the 68ih Hegiment return lo Kngl.ind by thi« ship.
