Star of the South, for Fiji, early • Samson, for Oamaru, June 30.Syren, for Auckland, early. Tararua, for Bluff, July 6. . Wanganui, for Bluff, June 30. Wallabi, for Bluff, early. Wild Deer, for London, July 1. The cutter Margaret Scollay has made a smart trip to Oamaru and back. ' The ship City of Tanjore, for Newcastle, was towed to sea this morning. The fine little s.s. Ladybird sailed for Northern ports yesterday afternoon at 3.30. The schooner James Paxton arrived this morning, from Riverton, and passed up to Dunedin. The Harbor Steam Company’s s.s. Maori returned from Lyttelton and intermediate ports yesterday morning at 6.30, The schooner United Brothers, for Gatlin’s River, and Kate Brain, for Oamaru, got under way this morning, but the wind dying away, they were compelled to anchor again below the shipping. It will give some idea of the work the steamers of the San Francisco line have to do, when we state that the steamer Tartar, previous to sailing for San Francisco on the voyage on which she is engaged, took on board not less than 2,000 tons of coal. The barque Hadda left port yesterday for Auckland. Before again returning to this port ■he takes'a cargo from Auckland to Sydney; proceeds thence to Newcastle, where she loads up with coal for Port Chalmers, after which she will probably again sail for China. The s.s. Wanganui returned from the Bluff, arriving in Port Chalmers early yesterday morning. She left this port on Wednesday night, and arrived in Bluff harbor at 11 30 on Thursday morning. She there discharged her cargo, reloaded, and left again at 5.40 p.m. on Saturday, and arrived at the George street jetty, Port Chalmers, at 9 a.m. yesterday, and on the flood tide proceeded on to Dunedin. She had S.E. weather on the down passage, and S.E. up again as far as the Nuggets, when it came down from the westward. The weather was fine all the way, ■ Another attempt (unfortunately without success) was made on Thursday, at high water to extricate the stranded schooner Emulous from her present perilous and unnatural position, and restore her to her natural element. With the assistance of powerful screw jacks and other appliances the vessel was, we understand, forced forward some five additional feet, and hopes are entertained that, should the weather remain tine and the sea calm for a few days more, her launch will be successfully effected.—‘North Otago Times.’ The barque Australian Sovereign, which has loong been looked for from Newcastle, put in an appearance at the Heads on Saturday morning, and was towed up in the afternoon by the tug Geelong. She left Newcastle on the 30th May, and had very disagreeable weather throughout the passage. When about half-way across she was caught in a heavy S.E. gale, in which she washove-to.for four days, and sustained some damage. Captain Birch being rather reticent on this matter, we have not particulars. On the gale moderating she stood up and made the Snares on the 13th, and has been knocking about the coast ever since. She was caught in a stiff S.E. gale off Stewart’s Island. After this gale passed away she had N.W. weather up the coast. The New Zealand Steam Shipping Company’s s.s. Phoebe arrived in Port Chalmers yesterday morning. She has brought with her a quantity of grain for transhipment to the ship William Davie. She left Manukau at 2 p.m. on the 22nd; arrived at Taranaki at 8 a.m. on the 23rd ; left again at 9 a.m. the same day, and arrived in Nelson at 3 a.m. on the 24th. She left again at 4 p.m. for Picton, where she arrived at 1 a.m. on the 25th, Losing no time there, she sailed at 8 a.m., and arrived in Wellington at 11.40 a.m,, and left that port again at 5.30 p.m. the same day. She crossed to Lyttelton, arriving in that port at 3 p.m. on the 24th, and left for Timaru at 5 p.m. On coming round Banks’s, Peninsula, she fell in with the s.s. ' Maori, in whose company she steamed until abreast of Akaroa, the Maori putting in there. She came on, and arrived at Timaru at 6 a.m. on the 27th ; there loaded 1,140 sacks of wheat for Port Chalmers, and sailed again at 6.30 p.m,, and arrived in Port yesterday at 9 a.m. Her mails and passengers were taken to Dunedin by the 10,15 a.m. train. We thank her purser, Mr Barber, for our files and report.
