During one of the heavy southerly squalls on Saturday afternoon, Captain M‘Galium, while ■ailing towards the hulk Hcnbury, was capsized. It is uncertain whether the accident was caused by a sudden gust of wind or by the tightening of the hulk's cable. Fortunately, Mr Dunbar, a waterman, was passing at the time and rescued him. The schooner United Brothers, from Gatlin's River, arrived this morning. Captain Wilson reports leaving on Saturday, but on account of the heavy S.W. gale was obliged to heavo-to. She brings 28,000 feet timber, consigned to Messrs Guthrie and Asher. There being a fair wind and tide, she passed up to Dunedin. The barque Woodville, from Newcastle, signalled for a tug at an early hour yesterday morning. The tug Geelong proceeded down and brought her up alongside the hulk California. Captain Hodge reports leaving Newcastle on the 17th, with fine weather for the first four days, the remainder of the passage With strong winds and high seas, principally wind from the southward; sighted the Solanders on the 26th, she being detained a day in Foveaux Straits ; bad a fine breeze from the southward on the 27th, which continued to making the Heads at 8 a.m. on the 28th, and arrived as above. The fine ship City of Auckland arrived in Auckland harbor early this morning, after a {ood passage of ninety-seven days from the lizard, and eighty-eight from land to land. She is commanded by Captain G. A. Ralls, who is now a part owner of the ship, having purchased the interest previously held by Capt Ashby, On the 17th August, when the ship was in lat. 43.50 S., long. 63.25 E,, at about (i p.m., when a heavy sea was running, and there was a fresh breeze with thick misty weather, Mr Hewlett, third officer, whilst in the execution of his duty setting the starboard lower Studding sail, accidentally fell from off the ■pars overboard. The ship was going at the rate of four miles an hour. The helm was instantly put down and the ship rounded to. At the same time two life buoys were thrown to him, each going within ten feet of the drowning man. The boat was immediately lowered, with Mr Brown, second in charge, two seamen, and two apprentices, with directions to Sull dead to windward, notwithstanding the arkness and haze at the time. The boat, as ordered, pulled against a heavy head, sea, and was away from the ship one hour and a quarter, but could see nothing of the poor fellow or the life buoys. A constant fire of blue-lights and rockets was kept up, so that the position of the ship might be seen. It is the general opinion that Hewlett must have hurt himself in his fall, as he was not heard to call afterwards.— Star, 15th inst.
