HELEN DENNY FOB A HTJLK.

A FAMOUS SHIP. Though shorn "of most of her former glory,' the old barque Helen Denny, one time wool clipper, and now a humble timber drogher, bears an honourable reputation in the annals of Now Zealand shipping. According to report, the old ship, which arrived at Sydney on Thursday with a load of timber from Havclock, will soon be making her la=t sea voyage. Sh: is - to go to Newcastle to load coal for Wellington, where she if to be dismantled aud converted into a coal hulk. Built in 1866 at Glai-gow, the nelen Denny has been a, successful trader in many parts of ths world for nearly half a century- .She was originally a full-rigged ship, but laler her rip; was altered to that of a barque. Under the tlag oi Messrs. P. Henderson and Co., of Glasgow, she spent the first few years of h?i- career iu trading from Ghiigow to Umitroou mid other Eastern ports. Later on she passed into the fine licet of sailing ships belonging to Jlesfrs. Shaw, SaviH and Co., Ltd.. and thereafter for inmiy years the trailed regularly between London ;'2(l New Zealand. The Helen Denny was a liondsoine vessel, and a well-kept one, and flic made pi.iuy smart p/isEaEca Homo from Xew Zciland ports with cargoes of wool. Shy was, in those d:!ys. a favourite p:i sponsor ship. With the advancement of steam into Mis London-Xew Zealand trade, the Helen Dciiiiy, like most of tlw vulers, varad out of the Fcrvire. and in 169 C she was niir-cl!/i--cd by Messrs. G. H'Cla'chie and Co., ot Chmtchurch. v.nd«r whcee management she was a. very Miece r '=ful trailer between Newcastle and Lyttclton and other Kew Zealand norts. At the time of her sale by the Shaw, Savill and Albion Co., flic was commanded by Captain W. J. T.ile, now a well-known master in the Union Company's service, who had with him as chief oiliccr Captain K. rirnwfonl, who is now commander of the Tofuo. About twelve years air« the Helen Denny wa.s ncnuired by Captain F. Holm, \vV took charge or her and «nilcil her in - the intercolonial service unfil about four or live year? ago, when hi' was succeeded liv his son. Captain S. Holm, who lml served as second lri.ite and mat - .' with his father. When siiu was last Welliuctoa, Cnplain Cozens took ch-n-gc of tho Helen Denny, whilu Cuuttiin K. Holm tnintl'iMTcd to thu small steamer John. Tim iin.?sinu of this line old vessel after 46 years of useful activity will cause a feeling of regret lo the many who gained their s-'a-Koini; cxporioiw and "served tlieir time" in her "half-ilcrlt." nnd who now hold positions ;is niastern or odirors in thn servicee of the Union Slcam Sh'p r(imr<iny.
