She sailed on the 29th ult. and was, consequently, twelve days on the passage, during which "she experienced light winds and pleasant weather. She saw the Willia n Denny, off the Three Kings, on Thursday, with light winds and smooth water, and every prospect of making a rapid passage to Sydney. The Wvnyari) Pier.—We stated, in a recent numlier that it was 111 contemplation to project tlii-s useful and ornamental pier a distance of '2OO feet further into the sen. We likewiso, stated that the estimated cost of this addition?! work was £2OO and that it was proposed to provide the necessary funds balfby a Government grant,—half by private subscription. We are happy in being enabled to slate that there is every prospect of the undertaking being slior !y commenced about £SO of the £loo required being already subscribed. The residue we have no doubt, will speedily be forthcoming.

London, Tuesday, June 6. The departures from the port of London, for th ' Australian colonies during the past week show a decrea.se. They have comprised altogether, eight ve ; - S p] 3 ;_five to Fort Phillip, with an aggregate burthen of 2,605 tons; one to Adelaide of 958 tons; one to Launceston, of 363 tons ; and one to Portland Bay. of 324 tons. Their total capacity was consequently 4/250 tons. The rates of freight continue to wear a heavy appearance. Jtfihe general business of the port of London during the p'ast week, there was great activity. The number of arrivals was 286, being 20 over those of the previous week. The total quantity of grain reported was 53,6 W quarters, including 21,838 quarters of wheat; in addition to 7,056 barrels and 2,396 sacks of flour. Of su-'ar there was reported 1,972 hogsheads, 1,029 casks, 3,636 cases, 41,138 loaves, and 98,060 bags; of tea, 8315 packages; of tallow, 710 dsks ; of rice, 36,483 bags ; and of coffee, 6,«<J9 bags and 1,531 casks. The number of vessels cleared outward was 113, being 15 less than in the previous week. Of these, 21 were in ballast, and 8, as above stated, for the Australian colonies. The total of vessels on the berth loading for those colonies on the Ist instant was 123, being 30 more than at the same date lsst month. Of those now loading, 13 are for Adelaide, 10 for Geelong, 11 for Ilobart Town, 8 for Launceston, 18 for Melbourne, 7 for New Zealand, 27 for Port Phillip, 4 for Portland Hay, 1 for Perth (Western Australia), and 24 for Sydney. The following statement regarding the emigration movement is given from Southampton. The Tantivy, of 1046 tons, belonging to Messrs. Anthony end Robert*on, of Liverpool, and commanded by Captain S. Brewster, left the docks on Saturday at'l r ioon,with398 governmentemigranUo-i board, under the charge of Surgeon Superintendent J. G. Moir, who has been out twice before in the service of the commissioners. W hiWt lying in the docks, the ship, from her commanding appearance, attracted many visitors on board among whom was* Lord George Lennox, and every'one expressed much gratification at the arrangements and the attention paid to every thing that could at all contribute to the comforts of the emigrants. This fine ship which is bound for Sydney, is fitted on the block plan, and is furnished with an oven for baking soft bread for the emigrants twice a week, as is now the case in all government ships. She sailed on Saturday afternoon from the Kiver, with a fine strong favourable wind, and will doubtless make a quick passage ; just before sailing the number of emigrants was 'increased by the birth of a fine boy, who was baptised by the officiating chaplain, the Rev. E. Ferrier. There appears to be plenty of work cut out for the officers here during this month, as this ship is to be followed on the 13th by the Pestongee Bomangeo, for Adelaide; the Joshua on the lfitb, for Geelong ; the Esmeralda, ontho2oth, for Perth, West Australia ; the Ellenbro, on tho 22nd, for Newcastle, New South Wales; the Emigrant on the27th, for Adelaide; the Anglo-Saxon, on the 7th July, for Sydney ; and the Flora M'Donald, on the llth July, for Portland Hay. From London direct there ia not much doing at present in emigration, either at the public or private expense. , . , ~ During the past year, the total emigration from the United Kingdom was as follows: To Australia, males and females il'VL* To North America, ditto ditto To United States, ditto ditto ? i»Q To other places, ditto ditto 3 > WJ Grand total 325>,937
