INTERPROVINCIAL TELEGRAMS.
(FBOM THE LYTT ELTON TIMES.) Wellington, March 30. *■ The Secretary to the post-office supplies the following memo: —The s.s. Australia with the February mails arrived at Ban Francisco on March 23, two days in advance of the time-table date. The s.s. City of Sydney, with London mails to Feb. 26, left San Francisco on March 20, five days late. The.very late departure of the City of Sydney from San Francisco is exceptional, but it is no doubt due to the <* fact that the steamer caught fire on March 14, the day before she should have sailed for Auckland. It was stated p, that the fire was speedily extinguished, and but little damage was done. Judging, however from the reported very late sailing of the City of Sydney, the damage must have been much more serious A than was at first anticipated. The mail !f ehould reach Auckland on April 10, and arrive here on Monday, April
