DEPARTURE OF THE BRITISH
QUEEN AND THREE PACKET
SHIPS. TO-DAY.

SHIPS, IO-UANs
The noble steam ship British Queen, viii leav,
tomorrow afternoon at / o'clock, for London
under circumstances unparalleled in the annals o
Atlantic navigation, either by wind or steam
About the same time, also, the South America
for Liverpool, Charles Carroll for Havre, anc
Mediator for London, will take their departure
and nearly under equal circumstances. The Brit
ish Queen has on board the greatest number o
cabin passengers, and the largest cargo ever car
ried in single vessel The agents here have
been compelled to refuse both passengers and
cargo, and they could now easily fill the Sirius
with the surplus supply. Including the servants
and those attached to the ship, less than TIVE
hundred and fifty persons will leave this city in
one day and in one vessel, for merry England
And by the packets more than one hundred more
depart on their watery way.
Amongst those who go in the steamer are
several who were saved from the burning Poland
two weeks ago, and who will be, in three days
more, nearly in the same place where that ill
fated packet was struck by bolt from heaven
Mrs. George Catlin, the lady of the celebrated
Indian lecturer and traveller, who is now in Eng
land, is also a passenger. Besides these, two
Russian Engineers of eminence, the French Am
bassador to Mexico several officers of the British
army stationed in Canada, one with dispatches,
and MIR. Smith, of the house of Wadsworth &
Smith, the agents here, go out in her. We hope
that one Of them will send us statement OF the
quantity of provisions consumed during the pas
sage.
The accomplished lady Of Captain Roberts,
who came out with him on his last trip, remains
here, we understand, till his return in July.
N. B. On the return Of the British Queen, we
beg her second officer, if he should be entrusted
with any packages for us, not to delay them a
day after her arrival here, but always to hand
them to our Commodore, who boards her ahead
OF all others as she comes up the harbor.
