Taranaki sailed for the Northern Provinces yesterday afternoon, at five o’clock. The cutter Jane sailed for Oamaru with a cargo of transhipments from the James Nicol Fleming. The ketch Trial returned with a cargo from Waikonaiti this morning, and sailed up the harbor with a fair wind. The schooner Maid of Otago arrived from Timaru late last night. She left Timaru on Saturday, and experienced moderate variable weather on the way down. Mr H. H. Hall, manager of the A. and A. Co., received a telegram reporting the arrival of the steamer Mikado at San Francisco on the 12th May, sixteen days from Kandavau, being at the rate of 300 miles per day. Capt. Moore has thus made up all his lost time, caused by his detention at Kandavau. This is by far the fastest run ever made across the Pacific. There has not been much shipping business in Port to-day. The only arrivals were two stnaU coasters. There was, however, the usual stir in the barber of loading and discharging. The ship Wild Deer is expected to sail for London on Friday. The William Davie is receiving a quantity of cargo, she being the next of Messrs Patrick Henderson’s fleet to follow the Deer. The Scimitar is also filling up with her outward cargo, and other vessels are busy in their several lines. The Macgregor (s.s.) on being taken into the dock in Sydney was inspected by the appointed surveyors. It was found that 30 feet of the keel, from the forefoot aft, had been carried away, and that the plates of the garhoard streak had been seriously damaged—there is a hole right through one plate of about eighteen inches, and a second plate further aft had been driven in and split; several of the floor frames are also much bent or twisted. It is expected some thirty plates will have to be removed. Some idea of the immense number of vessels which the fame of its coal draws to the port of Newcastle may be formed from the following computation from the * Chronicle ’ of May 9. On that day there were in the harbor 22 full-rigged ships, representing a total tonnage of 21,592 tons, and an average tonnage of 981 tons, the tonnage ranging from 534 in the case of the Farfield to 1,773 in the Knowsley Hall, and 1,796 in the Glengarry. Of barques there were 43, representing a total tonnage of 20,665, and an average tonnage of 480, the tonnage ranging from 192 in the Sydney to 1,180 in the Delawar, and 1,206 in the Addington. Of brigs there, were 13, representing a total tonnage of 3,215, and an average tonnage of 247, the tonnage ranging from 192 in the Heatherbelle, to 289 in the Alexandra and Restless, Of schooners there were four, representing a tonnage of 852, the largest being the George Noble, of 252 tons. Altogether there were 82 vessels in the harbor,, the total tonnage being 46,324, SHIPPING TELEGRAM. Wellington, June 23.—The barque Condor, bound for Tahiti, twenty-eight days’ out from Newcastle, has just put in short of provisions.
