Messrs. James Baines & Co., Liverpool.
Regarding the Doctor :—He made the voyage with Cap-
tain Forbes, in the Lightning, on her first trip, and gave
every satisfaction, and was appointed to the Schomberg
in consequence.

He is Ei man near sixty years of age, has a large family,
is a grandfather, and we understand that he is an elder of
the church at Kirkcaldy, where his family resides.

As to the complaints about the quality of the provisions,
they were not only ordered and paid for as the best—pas-
sed the government inspection as the best—but exactly
the same quality as were supplied to the previous ships,
James Baines, and Lightning, and which gave every satis-
faction ; with respect to the quantity, the ship was supplied
for 120 days out, and for 250 passengers for the 'same
time home.—Yours, &c. JAMES BAINES & CO.
Owners of the Schomberg.

P.S.—Captain Forbes made three previous voyages in
the Marco Polo, and Lightning, to Melbourne with pas-
sengers, in a most satisfactory manner, carrying upwards
of 2,000 people, and it is, therefore, neither just nor gener-
ous to condemn him on an exparte statement.
