The clipper ship Pomona, 1,200 tons register, commanded by Capt. Robert Tai nock, put in an appearance at the Bluff on Friday afternoon from Glasgow, Capt. Tannock reports having parted with the tug steamer off St, John’s point, Ireland, on the 22nd January. She was 10 days in beating out of the channel, very dirty weather being experienced all that time On the 28th January wore ship close to Lucifer Light vessel, off Wexford, and on the Ist February tho wind changed to the N.W., being in her favor for the first time. Experienced very variable weather up to the 18th March. On the 19th of February the Madeira Islands were passed, the wind at the Gme being W.N.W., and on the 12th the Canary Islands were left in the distance. Crossed the equator on the 23rd February. On the 27th Mr M’Cauley’a infant died from diarrhoea, and was buried in the evening. On the 7th March, the doctor, James O’Brien died from consumption, much regretted by all On the 11th, the wind having fallen away to a calm, the crew were exercised in boat drill, the lifeboats being launched and manned by crew and passenge s several times with great success, until the oreeze sprung up. On the 14th passed Tristan d’Acunha Islands, wiud S.E, by E., which, however, gradually changed to the westward. On the 21st, passed the meridian of the Cape of Good Hope, and experienced variable winds and weather until passing the Solander Island on the 14th inst., with a strong westerly breeze, which continued until arrival at the Bluff as above. The Pomona wos built by the famous clipper builder, Steele, of Greenock, and is under charter to the Albion Company. The is one of the celebrated Allan line of Canadian clippers, and is commanded by Captain Robert Tannock, who, it will be remembered, was the master selected to sail the English yacht Cambria, in the great ocean race from Southampton to New York, a distance of over 3,000 miles, beating the Tankee-bnilt challenger, Dauntless. The Pomona is a stranger to New Zealand waters, but the clippers of the Allan line are remarkable for speed, and from the time taken by tho Pomona on her run out, considering the rather unfavorable winds experiuced, she has not disgraced her flag.—* Southland Times,
