She brings a cargo principally for the ship Dunedin, and a number of passengers. The schooner Tauranga having taken in her cargo of railway iron for Oamaru, started on the ebb to go out, but unfortunately got athwnrthawae the stem of the Roslin Castle. No great damage is, however, done. The s.s. Easby, from Newcastle, arrived off Otago Heads at daylight this morning, but as the tide was ebbing, she elected to remain outside until the flood, rather than chance her deeply-laden hull up our winding channel, with its rapid current. She would be up about 3 o’clock. The schooner Dauntless, from Auckland, arrived at noon to-day, and came to an anchor in Port Chalmers. She loaded at Wangapoa with 50,060 ft of timber, and left on the 2oth July. Had to take shelter at the East Cape on account of a strong easterly wind on the 29th ; sailed again on the 30th, and thence had strong N. winds to the 2nd instant, which brought her as far as Cook’s Straits. She then encountered a strong S.W. gale which sprung her main boom and split the mainsail, and she had to run into Wellington for shelter and repairs. Left again on the 7th, and had S. winds until yesterday, and then got a favoring north easter, which biought her up to the Heads this morning, and carried her well up the harbor. Messrs Meckan, Blackwood, and Co.’s s.s. Omeo arrived in Port Chalmers, from Melbourne, via the Bluff, at 7.45 am. to-day, and berthed alongside the railway pier. Her mails and passengers were sent to Dunedin by the 9 a.m. train. She reports having left Port Phillip Heads at 6 p.m. on the sth; passed Wilson’s Promontory at 6 a.m. next day, and Swan Island at 6 p.m. ; she thence experienced S.B. and S.E.E. winds for three days, and then more favorable ones from the S.W., with fine weather and smooth water; passed the Solander at 10 a. m. on'the 11th, and arrived off Dog Island light at 7 p.m., coming to an anchor until 5 a.m. on the 12th, when she steamed into the Bluff, getting in at daylight. She then discharged her mails and a lot of cargo, left again at noon, and had light N.E. wind up the coast, arriving, at the Heads shortly after midnight. She waited there for daylight, and steamed up as above. We thank Mr J. P. Crotty, her purser, for our report and files! She brings with her some fine horses, one a chestnut colt, named Gladiator,
