Sliortly after ten o'clock on Sunday night, the Royal
'Mail Steam-ship Cambria, Capt. Leitch, entered the
MerseY, from Boston, after an excellent run of eleven
days, five hours, and twenty-three minutes, including the
usual call and detention at Halifax. The Cambria
brought 31 passengers, the usual Unired States and Cana-
dian mails, and specie to the amount of 4;65,000.
