Cain for the Coast and Melbourne, A fine clipper ship made her unexpected appearance in the Eastern passage, in (he course of Wednesday afternoon. — Curiosity was at once aioused, to learn the who and what of the stranger, and it was not long before pa nlul conjectures were excited in consequence of No. 74—disease on board—having been hoisted at the signal station. A wrong number, that of the Countess o! Liverpool, was subsequently flown at the North Head, the ship eventually bang discovered to be the Gipsey, Cap’ain Allan Uolion, with 150 passengers on board,—the friends and relatives of persons already settled in New Zealand, and who had made arrangements for their passage hither. Half of the number are for Auckland; the other half are to proceed to Wellington and Nelson. The Gipsey sailed liom Gravesend on the 4th of July, leaving the land (the Isle of Wight), on the 13th. in about ten days from the date of her departure, fever broke out on board, and has ever since continued :—of this fever two girlg, a boy, and one of the seamen died, namely, William Thomas Field about 3 years old, Charlotte Simpsou of a like age, Georgina Sewell 15, and Christopher -Minus, a seattiMt, The Gipsey, on Wednesday evening, was brought-to down the harbour, but having been visited by trie Colonial Surgeon in the course of Thursday, and iLitre hei 'g no other disease than Scarletinn (which has unfortunately been existing here) on board, site was relieved from durance, and came up to the usuual anchorage. <No one who visited her could for a moment believe her to have been a sickly ship, for a more hale or hearty looking body of immigrants it would be difficult to meet with. '1 heir appearance

spealta volumes to the credit of tin- ship, and wo havu been assured that the passengers express themselves in warm terras of the hind and liberal treatment they have received. This is the second voyage of the Gipsey, her first having been to Adelaide. She was built at Dundee, and is of tons ngi ter. She experienced light winds throughout the passage. In latitude 42 Q 3 South, longitude 3b a ‘ls’ West, she spoke the barque Harvest Horae, out 66 days, from London >o Sydney. She passed to the Southward of Van Diemen’s Land, sighting the South West Cape on the lOth Inst , and niaki g the land near Mount Oharnu on the 2-'t.d. She arrived off Cape CoUil'e after dusk on Tuesday night, and Captain Bolton having no chart of the llonraki, and only n paragraphfrora a newspaper to guide him, ran up the Thames in the dark. The passage from the Isle of Wight to Cape Colville lias therefore occupied 104 day’s. The greatest days run was 253 knots. The long-looked for barque Neuman iMonison, Captain Burke, has arrived at last. She sailed from Wellington on the 14th of September, arrived at Lyttleton on the 19th, where, on the 20th, Cap'ain Maundrell, who had been labouring under a dropsical affection throughout the protracted voyage, died. Iho Norman Morrison sailed again from Lyllleton on t!ie 10th Instant, and, on her passage hither, experienced heavy gales of wind from the North-west; losing her jib, fore-topsail, and spanker oil the Hans si z Isles, on the 21st Instant. Several of the passengers by the Norman Morrison, who embarked lor Auckland, remained at Wellington. The Auckland barque, Sabrina, sails for London this day, and carries with her a full and valuable cargo, the produce of the Province of Auckland, I lie list of her exports will be found in their appropriate place; but, here, it will not be amiss to draw attention to a few of the articles. Among these are seven and thirty spars, such as the Province of Auckland only can produce, and of that description which the tests applied by French science have pronounced to be the finest iu the world. Several of these spars are 80 and 81 feet in length, of 26 indies square, and contain from nine to ten tons of timber in each. There is also five and thirty bales of wool, which meri a passing remark. Some of this wool is from the pure Saxon Merino flock of Mr. Rich, and is unquestionably the very finest parcel ever shipped from New Zealand. There is besides a small lot of hides, which are deserving of mention as the first of a new article of export to England. The woo! and oil season not yet having set in, will account for so little of either having been sent by the Sabrina, which we heartily hope may prove but the precursor of many ships destined to carry our Auckland commerce in Auckland bo toms. A couple of cases of New Ze land curiosities have been forwarded to rhe Paris exhibition. The William Denny arrived in harbour yesterday afternoon from Sydney, after a fine passage of six days and ten days She left the wharf at Sydney on Friday, the 20th, six hours after (he English mail was put on board ; but, in consequence of a heavy sea running, it was considered prudent to anchor for the night under the Port Jackson Heads, from which she took her departure at 0 a.m. of the 2lst. The wea her, for the last three days, proved fine. 1 lie W iiliain Denny sighted a schooner stiering to the westward, and a large ship steering for the North Cape, on Wednesday. From the * Empire ’of the 14th we derive the following partTolars of the upward passage of the William Denny ; “ The William Denny (s.) has encuontered strong and contrary winds throughout the pa sage. She leit Auckland October 5, at 5 30 p.m., and arrived off her wharf October 13, at 6 30 a.m. During tbe trip, the passengers presented Captain Lovett with an address, expressive of their grateful sense of his attention and kindness, and their admiration of the skill and assiduity he had displayed in the management of the fine steamer during a passage remarkable for boisterous and contrary winds.” Ships for Now Zealand spoken at sea.—Mongol, June sth, Lat. 6° N., long. 23 W. June 21st, Eliza Moore, from London, lat, 22 N., long. 21 W. Ships arrived at Sydney.—The Amelia barque, Birkensbaw, after a boisterous passage of one and twenty days from Auckland on the 19th Instant.
