THE GREAT BRITAIN.—We have been favoured
(says the Dundee Advatiser) with the following excerpt of a
letter from Mr. James Bremner, civil engineer, Wick, to a
gentleman in this quarter :—" I left the Great Britain in
charge of Captain Claxton, the managing director, who is
stuffing her larboard quarter with fagots, brushwood, sand
bags, and chains and bolts, &c. It 111 r. Brunel's plan, and
I am not sure of its effects; but I hope there will be no dan-
ger of her until April, when I expect to commence operations
to raise her. She has quarried down six feet of the solid
rock, and turned up like a plough forward. There are tour
feet of sand above the rock—in all, ten to ten and a half feet.
She must be raised thirteen feet perpendicular height, and
then her bottom patched, launched, and taken probably to
Liverpool; but, if possible, to Bristol, by two steamers. The
sand now in her; which the water is over, will make her
fully 300 tons weight, so that you see the lift will be no
joke."
