SAMUEL REED, Commander,

2,430 tons register.
This magnificent ship, the largest and fastest in the world,
having made her first voyage from New York to Liverpool in
the unprecedentedly short period of thirteen days, amidst the
terrific contrary gales which prevailed in January last, with-
out losing either a rope or spar, has just been purchased to
form one of the " White Star" Line of Australian Packets.
The RED JACKET was built by one of the most celebrated
builders in New York, expressly for the passenger trade.
Her dimensions are, measurement length, 250 feet ; over all,
265 feet; beam, 45 feet ; height between decks. 8 feet. This
large amount of space will allow of unusual comfort and
lberthino•' room being provided for passengers. The best Cabin
and the Saloon on deck are unequalled in the accommodation
'which they afford by any vessel which ever sailed in the trade
from this or any other country. Splendid accommodation is
provided for Second Cabin Passengers, but no Intermediate
yr Steerage taken.—For further particulars apply to
PILKINGTON and WILSON, Commercial-buildings.
NOTE.—The RED JACKET will take Steam as far as practi-
cable, should the weather prove unfavourable on her sailing
day.

The Undersigned are thankful to state that, although their
Line, since its establishment, has conveyed more Passengers
to Anstratia than any other in the Kingdom, no Nhip be-
longing to it has ever put back or met with any accident,
notwithstanding their Ships have made the most remarkable
passages on record, viz.: Marco Polo, first voyage, left Li-
verpool for Melbourne 4th July, 1852, arrived back 26th
Decembef 1852 ; voyage, including detention abroad, 5
months 21 days. Second vcyage, left Liverpool 13th
