There were many complaints about the scarcity of trucks on the Lyttelton wharves on Saturday, the Australian Sovereign, Joliba, and other vessels being kept waiting for hours for empty waggons. The barque Witch of the Wave, Captain nutune, arrived in harbour yesterday evening, from Newcastle. N.S.W., which port she left on the sth. She brings a cargo of coal, consigned to Messrs Mont* gomery and Co. The Colonist schooner left the Thames on June oth, and arrived in harbour after a long and stormy passage, yesterday afternoon. The Columbia, schooner, lelt Napier on the 13th June, passed Cape Palliser on Thursday, with strong W. winds, on Friday experienced a strong S.W. Sale off Kalkouras, thence to arrival at 3.30 p.m. on aturday, experienced variable winds. The topsail schooner Advance, Captain Hamilton, arrived In harbour on Saturday, at 8 p.m. She left .Poverty Bay on June 9th, with strong S-E. winds, passed Portland Island on June 12tb, at 12 p.m., and sighted Cape Turn Again on June 13th. at 8 p.m. with strong N.W. winds, sighted Cape Palliser the same evening, the wind blowing a gale from the S.W.. which lasted till June 15th. when Cape Campbell was sighted, thence light W.S.W. Winds, arriving as above, The schooners Maggie Paterson, Auckland, and Tores, for Manakau, left Timaru, the former on Ihe 15th, and the latter on the 16th, produce laden. The barque F. Bassil is loading with grain at Timaru, for Melbourne. The brig Wave is shortly expected from Newcastle, coal laden. The brigantine Sea Gull, Capt Robertson, arrived in harbour and anchored inside the breakwater at 3 a.m. on Saturday. Reports leaving the Bluff at 2 p.m, June 13th. with W.N.W. winds, and passing the Nuggets Light at 8 p.m, a heavy squall from the N.W. striking her at this point. At 6.30 a.m. on June 15th was abreast of Otago Heads, the rwlnd being strong from the S.W,, with heavy sea. Oamaru was passed at noen same day, and on the 16th »t 4 a.m. a fresh gale from the N-N.E. sprang nn cirryinsr away h6r foresail and main staysail. At noon the wind shifted to the S.E, still blowing hard, and raising a high cross sea which broke ovei the schooner frequently. Akaroa was passed at 4 pjn, and the Godley light sighted at 6.30 p.m, the vessel running into harbour, and anchoring as above. j. The fine barque Stag, a stranger tp our port, anchored on Saturday afternoon. She is of North American build, and seems a very suitable vessel tor the trade, carrying 450 tons of coal on a draught of 14ft. She is commandend by our old friend Capt. J. Morton of the barque Monynick, who we need hardly say was warmly welcomed here by a host ot old friends. The Stag left Newcastle on the sth ol this month with a light westerly breeze. On the 6 th a strong southerly gale commenced and the vessel, in consequence of its extreme strength, had tolay-to for twenty-four hours, the ship labored heavily, the sea being terrific. After it moderated bsdllght southerly and westerly winds to making Cape Farewell on the 14th, when a strong N.W wind sprang up, carrying her through the Straits iothe Kalkouras, which were reached on Thursday evening. A light N.E then sprang up for ten or twelvehoure, when It suddenly Bhlftedto the S.W,

and blew furiously for fourteen hours; during which the ship had again to lay-to. At 6 p.m on Friday the gale decreased and Captain Morton made sail for the Heads, arriving and anchoring off the breakwater at 12 30 pm on Saturday. The Stag will be berthed at Peacock’s wharf, and on discharging, load grain for Auckland. That regular Sydney trader the John Knox put in an appearance on Saturday, We learn from her commander, Capt Davis, that the vessel left-Sydney on June 6th with a westerly breeze, which towards evening went round towards the southward; at S.W. blew a tremendous gale. The storm was unusually severe, the lightning being Incessant, and the rain falling in torrents. The sea rose to a great height, and one wave broke over the vessel, staving in one of the port cabin windows. During the whole of that night and the following day the gale cont’nued with unabated fury, but on the Bth it gradually subsided into a moderate westerly breeze, which was held right across, Cape Farewell being made on the 14th. A north-westerly breeze carried the John Knox through the Straits, and brought her down to the Kaikouras, which were sighted on the 10th, At 2 p.m that day encountered a strong S.W. gale, which lasted six hours. At 8 p.m. that night the wind shifted to the north, continuing light until 4 a.m. on the 17th, when it blew fresh from the N.E. Running into harbour before the favourable wind, the John Knox brought up off the breakwater at noon on Saturday. The cargo of'ethe John Knox does not this trip consist ent?rel|fj»t coal, there being a considerable quantity of general cargo on board, as will be seen by the Import list. Messrs McMeckan, Blackwood and Co’s steamer Otago, Captain Calder, arrived in harbor, and was berthed at the Gladstone pier yesterday at 11.30 a.m. The following report of the passage was furnished by the purser, to whom we are also obliged for files. Cleared Sydney Heads at 4 p.m on the 7th, experienced light S.W. winds with very fine weather, arriving at Hokitika at 9 p.m on the 12th; left Hokitika on the 13th, and covered the distance to Greymouth in two hours, leaving that roadstead at 5 p.m; had line weather up the coast; arriving off Nelson at 3.30 p.m on the 14th; left Nelson at 230 p.m next day, and experienced N.W. gale with thick weather till arrival at Wellington at 7 a.m on the 16th; left again at 4,20 p.m on 17th, and arrived in harbor as above, having had a fine weather run from Wellington. The schooner Isabella Pratt, from Oamaru, bound for Napier, put into harbor windbound on Saturday. Reports leaving Oamaru on Wednesday with N.W. wind, which lasted till Thursday night, when the vessel was forty-five miles to the eastward of Lyttelton. A strong gale from the E-S.E. was here encountered, carrying away the mainsail, but doing little other damage. As the wind was N.E. on Saturday and blowing hard, her commandcr, Captain Cross, put into this port for a fair wind.
