Landing Passengers at Sydney, Adelaide, and Geelong.
This truly splendid Vessel, just launched, and the largest
Merchantman ever built in England, will undoubtedly prove
to be the fastest of the Australian Fleet, as she has been con-
structed expressly with the object of attaining the very highest
rate of speed. Her vast dimensions enable the Owners to
pz-ovide Passenger Accommodation not to be met with in any
Vessel afloat. Thorough Ventilation has been secured, and,
by means of Ports, of which she has one at every seven feet,
and numerous Skylights, the Passenger-deck is perfectly
lighted in every part. The undersigned have, therefore, no
hesitation in affirming that the TAYLEUR presents advantages
as a Passenger Conveyance superior to any Ship hitherto des-
patched to the Australian Colonies.
