GISBORNE HARBOUR, At its meeting to-day tho Gisbarno Harbour Board will bo invited, to inspect a new harbour scheme which has been drawn up. by a Gisborno resident,.and is said to embrace several points which? a.ro* well worthy of attention.

The shintting journal "Fairplay," Tinder date Ma.rch 1, publishes tho following paragraph:—lt is interesting to notice how somo of tho old ships are coming into their kingdom again. Tho Star of. Holland, wlrich. is now under tho American flag, mado a run from Melbourne to Calota Bucna in 33 dayß, averaging 201 milea per day, and, although the paß6ago is not quito a rcsord, it. is a wonderful performance for a vessel built thirty-two years ago. On ono day she logged 275 miles. This vessel was originally known as tho Zemindar, and was built by Harlond and Wolff for tho Brooklebank Line. Several of tho ships of this fleet are still dotni? eood work. Tho Belfast, built in 1874. retains her original name, and sailß under, tho Chilian flag; the Majestio is now a Chilian training ship, and is called the Lautaro: while tho Holkar, n, four-master of 3046 tons, is now tho Korwogiaji shii) Souverain.
