Last Tuesday, the Kumara sailed from Montreal for Australian and New Zealand ports. She is under - charter to the New Zealand Shipping Co., and' is duo at Wellington on December 24. THE PELOTAS. According to the "Wanganui Herald," tho owners of tho Pclotas are very hopeful of meeting with tho eucccss that their efforts at floating the vessel undoubtedly deserve, and thoy fully expect to havo the barquentine beached in the river on tho South Spit before the week end. The hull of tho Pelotas is apparently thoroughly sound, though 6omo of the planks have sprung, and rccmixe attention. An erroneous impression has got abroad that tho copper sheathing has been stripped off the vessel. As a matter of fact, Ehe has no such sheathing, but was copper-painted,, and in tho bulfoting and exposure to tho weather the paint has come off. The salving of tho remaining sleepers is still being proceeded with. A hundred were got out on Monday, 77 on Tuesday, and another lot will follow. Tho balance of about 600 will bo left in her, as it is intended to make an effort to bring the vessel into tho river. Captain Whito has joined tho schooner Falcon as master, in succession to Captain Gilbertson. Kittawa, Union Coal boat, is to withdraw from her running about the end of this month, for survey and overhaul, at Port Chalmers. Mr. 0. Houghton, fourth engineer on tho Mararoa, joined the Kamona as third engineer at Lyttclton on Wednesday. Mr. Eitson, fifth engineer on tho Mararoa, has been promoted a step, while Mr. Smith, third engineer on the Kamona, has joined the Mararoa as fifth. Tho Vacuum Oil Co.'s chartered steamer Lord Lonsdale, which is expected to arrive horu from N'jw York, via Auckland, on October 20. is to dischargo 45,000 cases of oil at this port. A new departuro is being made by tho various steamship lines trading from New York to Australia and New Zealand, in deciding to call at other ports in New Zealand than those of tho four principal centres. The A. and A. Line Btoamer Den of Airlie, now on her way from the American port, is to call at Napier; the United T.vser liner Star of Scotland, which is to fail from New York on November 13, will visit Bluff: while Timaru is to be made a port of call by another steamer-a U.S. and A. Line boatwliich is expected to get away from New York on October 23. Tokomaru, oversea New Zealand trader, arrived at Montreal on Tuesday las', and commenced loading for Australian and New Zealand ports. The chief officer of tho Kotuku, Mr. Ockenden, has resigned from the Union Company's service. Mr. Eankin, late of the Union collier Komata. joined tho Arahura as second officer yesterday, in place of Mr. Carrick, who has come ashore for orders. Komata, one of the Union "K" class colliers, is expected to arrive from Westport with a load of coal' for Wellington tomorrow. Mr. E. Beverage, second engineer ftf the Maori, signed off tho vessel at Wellington yesterday, Mr. W. Howthe. filled his place. Owing to tho heavy sea on tho Bar at Grcymouth, the Mapourtka could not work that port yesterday, and so camo on to Wostport. The vessel is expected to arrive at Wellington about midnight to-night. Jlaitai, R.M.S., left Wellington last evening for Lyttelton, where she will bo docked. Tho vessel is expected to return on Monday, and will sail for San Francisco on October 20. Tho Ulimaroa, en route to Sydney, will probably bo within wireless range to-day.
