ScmR. MYRovER.-We were pleased TO notice yes
terday another vessel lying at of our wharves
bearing the above title, in compliment to Mr.. H. L.
Myrover, of Fayetteville. We were shown over the
vessel by her gentlemanly consignee, T. c. Worth,
and must say that we think her of the finest yes
sells we have looked at in some time. She was built
at Union Township. n. j. and is intended to ply as
regular packet in McCready, Mott & Co.'S line be
tween this place and New York. Her length of deck
is l27 feet length of keel 118 feet breadth Of beam
30 feet depth of hold, 10 feet inches; measures
$50 G5 ,95 tons, and can carry 1000 bbls She is
stanchly built and has fine cabin, nicely fitted up
for the accommodation of passengers. Her comman-
der, Capt, Horton, is experienced seaman, cev-
er gentleman, and is in every way worthy to com
mand so fine a vessel. She is owned in Fayetteville,
this place, and New York. We wish the Myrover q
successful and that she may prove profit
able to her owners.-Heruld 5M INST.
