Shipping Intelligence.

FOPT AHURIRI. The three-masted schooner Mary Wadlev. Captain «T. P. Bnlle, swils for Greyniouth in ballast at 4 o'clock tliis Rflernocm. The steamer Maori, Captain-Anderson, is to leave for tho Wairoa fit 9 o'clock tonight, weather permitting. The e.g. Go- A head, Captain E. M. Dicker,' left Castlo Point at 10 o'clock this morninr. pnd should arrive here to-night. Si.c is advertised to sail for Wellington* at '4.»0 o'clock to-morrow afternoon. - The steamers Fairy and Sir Donajd-are ta m leave for the coast this evening, should the ■weather look more promising. - The e.g., Kiwi, Capt. James Campbell, is telegraphed as leaving Castle-Point for here at 10 o'clock this morning, but by a private telegram we learn that she is to return to Wellington before coming here, nnd she will then go on as far as Poverty Bay. Should sufficient inducement offer, it is the intention of her owners that she shall make bi-monthly trips te Poverty Bay through tho winter months. This will be a great convenience to shippers here, as they will thus be able to put their goods into tho steamer alongside the wharf, nnd save the inoekine about occasioned by transhipping out of theJi^hrcr.*. The s<L'hoi>nprMnry Ogilvie, which left for the . mil> r>n Tiip*rlfiy, meeting a southerly wind, put buck for sh<\.or virirl. : T Cape Kidnappers. »Slie fiot wi'derweigh early this morning, and resumed her voyage to Havelock. Ifcjs reported that the North German Bank has'resolved to aid the establishment cf a shipping line from Hamburgh to -Australia, by way of the Cape. That much good will come of such an enterprise is very unlikely. In competition with English lines, a German company would be heavily handicapped. Our ports being free, the return cargoes, would, in all probability, be almost monopolised by British ships, which would thus earn both outward and homeward freights, whereas the German , shipowners ■would have, in the main, only the outgoing freight on which to depend. This is the inevitable result of a policy of protection. The country which closes its home markets against foreign products, at the same time shuts itself out from foreign markets, and bo long as Germany retains her present restrictive tariff, she is not in tho least likely to trouble us much with her competition abroad.—The Economist.
