THE CAPE MAIL STEAM CompAnr.---The Har-
binger, one of the larger screw steam-vessels, about to be
placed on the Cape line, was tried down the River yester-
day. The weather was most unpropitious; it blew a heavy
gale from the southward and westward, yet the Harbinger
proved herself to be an excellent sea boat. She was stiff
under sail, and the screw worked easily without a,y appa-
rent vibration. The fittings of the vessel aro of the most
perfect description, and do great credit to those who have
planned and carried into execution the wishes of the direc-
tors. It will he in the recollection of our professional readers
that the Harbinger formerly figured in our Navy List under
the name of the Recruit, but no one under the present ina.
nagernent would have recognised' her to be the same vessel.
The Harbinger ran the measured mile in the Lower Uoiae
against a strong tide, with her fore and aft sails set, at the
rate of eight and a half knots per hour. and on her return,
with a head-wind, she made nearly eleven knots. We can-
not give too much praise to Messrs. Mare and Co., Captain
Ford, and the gentlemen who have assisted in the fitting out
of this vessel. The arrangements for passengers are perfect,
and we congratulate the proprietors of the Screw Steam Na-
vigation Company in possessing so newer ul an auxiliary as
the Harbinger is likely to prove to their interests. The
Harbinger is appointed to sail with passengers and the Cape
mails from Plyrnoth on the 15th inst.—Morning Paper.

pital, in order to obtain efficiency in their profession. The
address was very numerously attended, and was listened to
.with the most marked attention by the pupils present. Mr.
Canton will to, day deliver a lecture on practical anatomy,
which will be followed on this and two following days by
introductory lectures from the other professors of the hos-
pital on anatomy and physiology, medicine, Burger', and
