The ship Maxwell, Captain G Jones, arrived from
London last evening and brought up off the North
Head. She has made a passage of 111 days from
the Downs, having sailed on the 7th April. Took
her final departure from the Start on the 8th,
passing outside the Cape de Verds but inside Madeira
Island. Experienced very light and baffling NE
trade winds and crossed the Equator on the 2nd
May, in longitude 26 degrees 31’W (23 days out).
Had very indifferent SE trades and passed the
meridian of thecae of Good Hope on the 11th May,
in latitude 18 degrees 58’S, longitude 34 degrees
W. Ran down her longitude between the parallels
of 45 degrees and 46 degrees S., experiencing
heavy weather throughout.
On the 15th June fell in with a heavy cyclone,
during which time heavy rain, thunder and lightning
prevailed and the wind ranged right round the
compass. Passed in sight of the Southernmost party
of Tasmania and had fine weather across to this
coast.

Made the Three Kings on Monday last and was off
the Great Barrier on Tuesday evening.
The Maxwell brings a large cargo and some 70
passengers, all of whom speak in the highest terms
of the Captain and we have much pleasure in publishing
the following testimonial presented to him by
the different parties on board:
"On board ship Maxwell, 26th July 1864
"We, the undersigned passengers in the ship Maxwell,
from London to Auckland, New Zealand, wish hereby
to convey our thanks to Captain Griffith Jones,
commander, for his kindness and attention to us
during the voyage; and also to express our administration
of your seamanship and the great care and anxiety
which you have always shown to combine both speed
and safety.
"We heartily wish you health, promotion and prosperity"
Ibid, July 28
