Messrs. Shaw, Saville, and Co., despatched from Gravesend on the 3rd instant the passenger-liner Evening Star, for Otago, with a full cargo and 130 passengers, a large number of whom were sent out under the auspice of the Provincial Government.
A large number of friends of the passengers, and other visitors connected with the colony, assembled on board at Gravesend. Suitable addresses were delivered by the Rev. Mr. McGillivray, Mr Birch, the London agent for the Otago Government, Mr Thos. D. Currie, the secretary to the emigration scheme, and others. Great satisfaction was expressed as to the arrangements made for promoting the comfort of the passengers. The next ship of this line for Otago is the Black Swan, of 1000 tons, sailing in August.
