Loss of the Briganiine Ahauh.— By the Antelope, whi<h arrived on Mondoy night from Unnkes' Bay, we have intelligence of the total \o*a of the Arabic), of this port, on the passage fiom Wellington hither. Captain Leathart has furnished the following pamculars:—The Aiabia sailed fiom Port NicboKon on the 20th ult,, anchoiing with a N. N. E. wind at Kukupu, Uavvli.es' Bay on the 27rh. About twelve hours afterwards, the wind suddenly shifted to the S.S.W,, when it blew a gale. The schooner then endeavoured to beat out of the bay, and after sixteen hours woilr, fetched Long Point, a distance of seven miles, under which she again cime to with both anchors. Finding that she dragged, assistance was obtained from the shore, and about 1 p.m. of the 28th, she was once mote got under weigh. After making about fourteen boaid*, the rudder fetched away. To save the vessel she boie up for Carrol's ieef, and steering her with the jib, was rounded under the lee of the reef. Howevei the wind and sea mcieasing, she dragged her ■nichor, and went ashore about 4 p.m. The crew and Mr. Hunt, passenger, remained by the vessel all night, and all bands got on shore safely in the rooming;. She bilged shortly and became a total wieck. She had on boaid the mail by the barque Maori, from London, ■which has been brought on by thp Antelope. The Arabia's cargo consisted of 300 bushels maize and some empty ca^ks was lost. She was wrecked nearly on the same spot where the Joseph Cripps was lo>t '•ome time ago. The Tliomama arrived yesterday morning, having sailed from Sydney on the 9th instant. — The Sarah, brig, Grant, had cleared out for New Zealand.

Four Tons of Gold.-— The Kate, which yesterday sailed for England, conveyed fiom our shores upwards of two tons of gold ; and the Melbourne, which sailed ftom Port Phillip last week, had on board nearly two tons andaguaiter. It is probable that both these vessels will reach England about the end of April, and the report that four tons and a quarter of gold has arrived from Australia, will add to the excitement which the previously received news will have caused. Steamers once in two months, indeed ! — a steamer every Monday morning, at four o'clock, via the Cape, and one every Thursday morning at nine, via Panama, will be a great deal nearer what we shall require ; and as for a Parliamentary grant, why, if it is not given freely and quickly, we have no doubt the passengers, mails, and specie will amply pay a well-appointed line of first-clas steamers, whenever they may be laid on. — Sydney Herald, Jan. 10. The ship Bank of England, from Sydney, to Calcutta, passed Booby Island on >he 6th November, all well, and the Prussian ship Wilhelmina on the 10th of the same month. A black brig was seen by the latter on Raine's Island, fore-topsail loose, and appaiently abandoned.— lb. Feb. 4. The Ann, which arrived yesterday from Portsmouth, had a rather tedious passage, being detained in the early part of the voyage by contrary winds. She is 103 days from the land. October 26, spoke the barque Roseberry, from London to Port Phillip, 21 days out, in lat. 43° 36 mm. N.; long. 16° 15 mm. W. November 1, spoke the William Hyde, barque, from London to New Zealand, out 9 days, in lat. 32 B 12 mm. N ; long. 18° 59 mm. W. ; January 30, passed a full rigged ship standing to the westward, with red figure head, supposed to be the Scotia, hence, for Melbourne, —lb. Several of the ships laid on in London for these colonies had engaged their cargoes at seventy shillings a ton freight; the Havering is said to have been all taken up at that price. As much as 2s. 6d. a dozen has been given to bring out bottled beer. The arrival, however, of the mails of the Windsor and Castle Eden, giving an account of the depressed state of our markets in the beginning of July, had checked the ardour of shippers, but large quantities of goods which had been purchased for this maiket would have to come on.— lb. The Royal Stuart, Captain R. 11. Goble, entered this port last evening, having made a good run of 95 j days from Plymouth, with 930 t tona of cargo. Ibis is her first voyage ; and, as a model, may be classed amongst the finest vessels in the port. On the 4th December, a lndy passenger, Mrs. Boxbam, died, after a protracted illness. 'Ihe following vessels were spoken during tho passage :— Old England, from Liverpool to China, Bth November ; Cora, from Copenhagen to Per-

namlnici), 10th; Henrietta Khsinaj, from Amsterdam to JButiiVici, l'2th; hir West, honi London to China, Afl'jhin, tram Liverpool to Cilcutta, 17th ; Unknown, liom Lisbon to Pern amb iic a, Conslau, fiom Liverpool to Bombay, and Madagascar, from Calcutta to London, 2 1st ; Janet Mane, tiom i\LiunUuB to Fdlmoutli, 2i\\\ , St. Paul, fruni London to Ceylon, December loth; Cornier, iroin Luerpool to Calcutta, Ro&ebeny, troio London to Poit Phillip, 70 da\s out, 22nd; Ko\al George, tiom London to Port Phillip, m lat. 38*^0 S. lony;, oB east, 70 days out, 2^nil ; 'J homus Ihoinpbon, tiom Lirerpool to Bombay, — Ib. Tut AkiA, miOM Mliboornp. — The announcement of this at rival yesteiday morning created a considerable senotition, winch was much increased when some of the 100 pasbeugers mtide their appeal ance in the e.uiy vthiclos iioni the Poit. The majority ha^'e done satisi.ietonly, and a few rematkably well. Of 30 Germans who have returned scmcely one presents a case ol compai.itivu iailurn, and two have cleared jC-JOO each in eight weeks, although they did very little duung the last thiee weeks ol the time. Those who have leturnud bo successfully intend to buy land in the colony, a»d thus cement the ties which bind them to the South Auwtialian soil. The German farmers und small cultivators,, who have beeu so useful among us, arc not edgtr to sppaiate themselves irom us, even tor a time, or lor the tempting purposes of gold-digging, 'lhey generally depute a relative or a son out of each family, as they can be spared, and the great object of accumulation seems to be the augmentation of tbe paternal eAiate, or the improvement of their farming operations. — bmlh Australian Registei.
