CLEARED OUT.-OCTOBER 7.

John King, barque, 250, Ellis, Mauritius, in ballast.

We are under the impression that in the course of

a few months from this time there will bo twelve Btcam-vessels, either bailing from the port of Laun-ceston, or trading regularly to and from it. At pre-sent there are the Yarra Yarra, Clarence, Pirate, Queen of the Netherlands, Manchester, and Lady Bird, six in number ; to these may be added for a certainty a new vessel, daily expected to arrive from England for the Launceston Steam Navigation Com-

pany (a sister boat to the Clarence) ; a vessel which I was ready to be launched in the north of England on ! the first of August last, built to order, which will be navigated out under canvas by Captain Farr, late of the ¿liip Undine ; the tug steamer ordered by the Local Government ; one to trado to Circular Head and the rivers intermediate, and most likely a second one for this trade ; and it is pretty confidently said that the enterprising owners of the Pirate wdl fie com-piled to purchase another vessel to secure the increasing trade between this port and Geelong. Thus it appears that twelve vessels at least may be expected to trade out of this port, and for twelve it will be found there will be abuudance of trade.-Corn-

wall Chronicle.

Notice to Captains.-All vessels arriving on and after Saturday, the 1st instant, become subject to the Colonial Passenger Act, charging the Captain 5s. for every passenger on board. The same ordinance cnjoins'cach master of a vessel to procure a certificate from the Immigration Officer before entry.--Melbourne
