(Late of the BARRACKPOR

is 233 feet long, with 4

iepth of hold

18 feet high between decks ; her saloons are 80 feet long, 'con-
taining 20 state-rooms, fitted up in the most sumptuous and
-costly manner. The saloons are beautifully wainscoted, and
ornamented with gilded flower work, and branches on the
vanels set off with papier mache cornices, on a groundwork
of pure white, equalling enamel in its smoothness and bril-
liancy.
The saloon table will be supplied in a most abundant and
ample manner, including wines, spirits, &c., upon the plan
adopted by the London Australian ships. Price, Sixty
Guineas per adult.

having circumnavigated the Globe in 62 days 22 hours.
The Accommodations afforded to Passengers on board the
RED
JACKET are of the most superior description, com-
prising a very magnificent Poop Cabin and Saloon, with a
spacious House on Deck, eminently adapted for Private
Parties and Families. The First-class and Intermediate
state-rooms, and Berths between Decks, are spacious, well
ventilated, and liberally provided with everything which
experience can devise for the comfort of Passengers.
Although so fast a sailer, the RED JACKET has proved herself,
by the general admission of her Passengers, one of the most
easy and pleasant Ships ever sent to sea, going steadily
through the water in all weathers, without that violent
imotion to which some Vessels are liable when under a large
spread of canvas. In consequence of the numerous applica-
'bone for Berths in this Ship, the allotment of them will be
sins& in rotation as secured.-mApplyto the Owners.
