ARRIVAL OF THE WAI HATE

The Now Zealaud Shipping Co.’s fine ship Wnimate was signalled at 6.30 p.m. yesterday, and tho tug Geelong proceeded down and towed her up to her anchorage last night. The Health and Immigration Officers proceeded off to the thip in the steam launch this morning, when the usual questions being answered satisfactorily, they boarded and shortly after cleared the vessel. The Waimate is a flue iron vessel of 1,125 tons, now on her second voyage, was built to the order of the Shipping Company, is fitted with every convenience, such as bath rooms, lavatory, patent windlass and capsons, etc., and is commanded by Captain Peek, whose Inst visit to this port was in the Company’s ship Mataurn, The Waimate comes into port remarkably clean, and reflects great credit upon Captain Peek, Dr Welsh, and tho officers. The immigrants, wl.o consist of 209 males and 138 females, seem a very respectable class, and speak iu glowing terms of the treatment they have received on board. They have presented Captain Peek and Dr Welsh with a testimonial. Daring the voyage the passengers and crew have been exercised in the boat and fire drill, and several times when practicable the boats have been lowered, manned, and sent away after life buoys which bad been tlirown overboard. A watchman was appointed during the night, whose duty it was to report every hour, in case of fire. The single women, °f whom there were 51, under the charge of Miss Sarah Cross, who was appointed matron by tho Government had, as a compartment, the after part of the ’tween decks, which was kept remarkably clean, as was the married and single men’s compartments. The whole of the compartments were thoroughly ventilated. The voyage has been remarkably free from sickness, there having been only two_ deaths, those of infants —the first to succumb being A. J. Pope, aged seven mouths, who died on the 24th September from atrophy the other being Alfred Bailey, aged eleven months’, who died on the 22nd November.
