The ketch Glimpse is loading railway|iron from the ship J. N. Fleming, for Oamaru. The barque Eureka commended to discharge this morninginto the railway trucks. The ship Wild Deer has commenced to bend sails, and will shortly sail for London. . The p. s. Samson sailed this morning for Oamaru. Besides a good complement of cabin passengers, she took a number of immigrants from the barracks. The s.s. Phcehe sailed yesterday afternoon for the northern ports. A number of the saloon passengers by the s.s. Atrato, for Wellington and Auckland, proceeded by her. Two young children died on Wednesday -night :on board the s.s. Atrato. The bodies were conveyed in the p.s. Peninsula yesterday afternoon to the Quarantine Island, and buried in the Quarantine Cemetery. It is some satisfaction for the proprietors of the s.s. Tuapeka to know that a higher price has recently been offered them for the engines and internal fittings than was paid by them for the steamer. The Insurance Companies with whom the policy was effected are using their best endeavors to float off the steamer from where she lies, and for this purpose casks have been conveyed to the spot, and other arrange- ’ ments will be completed under the inspection of Mr Mason, who has been sent from Dunedin for the purpose. Several weeks are likely to elapse ere the steamer will be again floated, even under the most favorable circumstances ; but should the river rise suddenly we would not give much for her chance of ever again floating.—‘Bruce Herald.’
