Wednesday forenoon a steamer was signalled from the North Shore flag staff, and after a long time the number of the "Robert Lowe" was made. By four o'clock she had rounded the heads, and was at anchor off Official Bay. Captain Congleton reports that he left Queenstown under steam on the 8th September ; had a good run to the line ; crossed the meridian of the Cape on the 46th day, in lat. 49 ° , and ran down his Easting in that parallel. From Van Diemen's Land to New Zealand the Robert Lowe was under steam again, and arrived in Auckland 81 days out, during 15 of which only she was under steam. She brings the head quarters of the second battalion of the 14th Regt. The Robert Lowe is a splendid vessel of her class, and admirably fitted up for passengers. One soldier, a woman, and eight children, died during the passage, but the health of passengers generally was good. The Aquila, Captain Austin, arrived last night from the Feegees, 11 days out. She brings a cargo of fruit, &c.

Shipping Intelligence. PORT OF AUCKLAND.

ENTERED INWARDS. November 5— Thames City, ship, 557 tons, J. W. Sedcote, from London.

The Rosettta, of Liverpool, Williams, master, from Hong-kong, bound for Monto Video with a general cargo, put into Russell (Bay of Islands) for provisions on the 2nd instant.

During Sunday evening a ship was signalled, and yesterday morning she was at anchor off Official Bay, and proved to be the "Thames City." She remained on the so-called "powder-ground," having 44 half-kegs on board. The Thames City left the docks on the 26th July, and between her last departure — Ushant — and the Three Kings, was 90 days out. Madeira was sighted on the 8th of Aug., and on the 17th of the same month H.M.S. Bloodhound, bound for the Cape. The line was crossed on the 27th of Aug., in 18 7' E , and the meridian of the Cape on the 23rd Sept. The Thames City ran down her easting in high latitudes, going as far to the south as 51°, where very cold weather was experienced, though — in consequence of the season of the year— no ice was sighted. The Three Kings were made on Thursday last at 5 in the morning, since which light baffling winds have been experienced. The Thames City shipped all her passengers and the greater part of her cargo for Wellington ; the live stock, however, consisting of deer, horned cattle, game, etc., (see particulars under "imports," belonging to Mr. R. Graham, have arrived here safe and sound, with the exception of such an average of deaths as would be probably calculated upon by any one shipping such a variety of animals as those on board this ship. Captain Sedcote reports passengers and crew healthy during the voyage.

IMPORTS — FOREIGN. Per City, from London — 24 half-barrels gunpowder, 10 do. do., 4 horses, 2 bulls, 11 sheep, 2 sheep-dogs, 4 deer, 6 hares, 7 guinea pigs, 4 pheasants, 4 larks, 1 quail, 1 partridge, 25 cases acid, for Auckland; and, sundry packages merchandise for Wellington.

The Osprey, which arrived here from the South Sea Island on the 1st instant, reports having spoken, on the 13th of October, the Fortune, Capt. Comstock, of New Bedford, -10 months from Honolulu, with 500 barrels whale oil; also the Herald, Capt. Beebe, 17 months, with 450 barrels sperm ; and, on the 25th of October, off the French Rock, the Seine, of New Bedford, 17 months out.
