The s.s. Maori, Captain Anderson, returned from Mohaka on Saturday night. Plie reports that she got on tho beach at, Mohaka through some small part of her machinery breaking as she was entering the river. She was only on the beach for about twelve hours, being got off at the next high tide with the assistance of about twenty natives. She will probably leave to-morrow night for Wairor. The schooner Orpheus, Captain James Dunn, sailed in ballast for Mercury Bay at 8 o'clock this morning.

The steamer Result, Capt. Baxter, leaves for Wairoa at 9 o'clock to-morning morning, if she is able to get a berth in time to take her cargo in.

The»w ,. a sels were placed one on each side of W Taupo, and the whole bound fast together with wire ropes. As the tide rose the Taupo was gradually lifted a distance of nearly three feet, when the wire ropes broke, and the vessel sank back to her former position. It is thought that the ropes were cut by the Taupo's keel. We understand another attempt is shortly to be made.
