The new shears constructed of peon wood, and fitted
with cast metal caps and rests, each piece weighing
about 20 tons, were both raised to-day at one time to
their required elevation at the west side of the basin, and
were securely. fixed before twelve o'clock. The length
of the shears is 106 feet, including the caps and rests.
One of the pieces is entire from one tree, but the other
being several feet shorter, a piece of about 30 feet in
length has been joined to it with Jeffery's marine glue,
and having been admirably put together under the su-
perintendence of Mr. Munday, the master mast-maker,
the
,joined part of the shears appears as strong as the
part formed from one solid tree.

TRADE OF THE SEVERN.---A handsome steamer,
the City of Worcester, arrived at our Lower Quay on Wed-
nesday afternoon. She brought from Glasgow 7U tons pig-
iron, Hardy and Padmore ; 1,107 bags Bolivian guano, H.
and J. Webb ; 4 hhds. whiskey, Josiah Stallard ; and 2
hhds. ditto, Powell and Sone. Her length is 107 li:2 feet, she
is 21 feet beam, schooner rigged; her engines are of 35-horse
power.
The is built of iron, and is fitted with an auxiliary
screw-propeller ; and the masts and chimney can be lowered
so that she may pass under the bridges of the Severn. 'The
vessel is a fair specimen of the ship-building and engineering
of her well-known builders, the Messrs. Napier, of Glasgow,
and reflects great credit on her able architect, Mr. Hunter,
of that city. She can carry 150 tons, at which lading her
draught of water would be between 7 ft. and Bft. ; and when
empty, she draws but 3 ft. forward, and 4 ft. aft. There are
berths for ten passengers in the cabin, and a number of steer •
age or forecastle passengers may also be accommodated. We
understand that several of these berths were taken, and that
the steamer has since sailed for Dublin with a cargo of goods
from Droitwich, Stourbridge, Worcester, &c. It is now suf-
ficiently established that nothing but an extension of the
improvement of the river below Worcester is required to in-
sure to this city and district all the advantages of sea-going
vessels of 150 or 200 tons coming up at every season of the
year without lightering, and thus greatly diminishing the
cost of the transit of goods. All parties are looking with
anxiety for the result of the Government report on the Severn
nayiptio, expected iii a few days.— Worcester Chronic*.
