The scene around the Oceanic Steamship
Company's wharf yesterday afternoon
was livelier than any that has been seen
there for many month. The occasion
was the departure OF the steamer Aus
tralia for Honolulu. aad what contributed
to the liveliness that usually attends the
departure of steamer was the presence
of over hundred members of the Saliva
ton Army on the wharf who wanted to
give a parting ovation to the detachment
of the army that is going TO the isles OF
the southern seas aud spread the light of
the gospel there in accordance with their
peculiarly novel methods.
Arrayed in their blue uniforms, with
the striking red ribbon adornment, the
Salvationists ranged themselves along the
edge of the wharf and saw the huge
steamer pull out, while they waved adieus
to their friends who stood upon the deck
and returned their signals of farewell.
Some of the women wept as they wished
the party gOdspeed.

passenger list, and the way she was

her hold was well filled with freight.
