All yesterday, therefore, the ships were busily engaged, and it is to bo hoped that it will bo long before another similar stoppage has to be chronicled. The ship Margaret Galbraith was towed into a berth outside the Carnatic yesterday afternoon, and on the departure of the Easby to-day, will be moored where that vessel now lies, at (he outermost berth. The May Queen completes her loading lying outside the Margaret Galbraith. Tin,' Richard and Mary finished the discharge of her timber last night. Speaking of the wreck in Palliser Bay, the Otago Times says:—“ Then again, fears arc entertained for the safety of the schooner Edward, of Lyttelton. We have some information of this vessel up to the Bth instant, when, in company with the schooner Zior (now in port), she was hove-to ten miles north of Banks’ Peninsula, under a jib set aft as a sort of storm-staysail. She just bowed the sea and was sagging bodily along the coast before the gale, whilst the Zior, being under double reefed foresail and close-reefed mainsail, head-reached off shore. Nothing further has been heard of the Edward, but Captain Falconer, of the Mary Ogilvie, states that after the gale subsided, and his vessel, after having been driven north from the Banks, was recovering ground with a light N.E. breeze, she sighted a small fore-and-aft schooner astern, standing south, under mainsail and headsails. Her foresail appeared to have been blown away; but, as this was at the beginning of last week, the Edward, if it were her, should have arrived at Lyttelton a day or two afterwards.” SHIPPING TELEGRAMS.
