St. Hilda sails for Wellington and Wanganui this afternoon.m The following judgment has been given by the Resident Magistrate at Wellington in the case of Martin Kennedy v. Master and Owners of the schooner Herald: —“ In this case, after having considered the evidence which has been put before me, it appears clear to me that the Luna must be held to blame. The Herald was seen from the Luna for ten minutes before the collision ; during this time the Herald continued her course close hauled to the wind. The Luna was placed directly across her course, then stopped and backed, so that she had stemway at the moment the collision occurred. The Luna was struck about ten feet from the stern, the Herald having put her helm up a minute before. The Luna appears to have disregarded the presence of the Herald, and acted without any consideration for her. I do not consider the Herald blameless. She should have approached the danger she saw before her with more care. It appears to me that she could have avoided the collision by putting her helm down, and so come up in the wind, or, by having put her helm up eai’lier than she did, passed astern of the Luna. As, however, at common law, a wrong doer cannot recover for damages the consequence more or less of his own wrong, I give judgment for defendant.” THE HALCIONE. A ship, supposed to be the Halcinne, from London, was signalled outside the Heads this morning. THE SUNBEAM. The s.s, Taranaki reported sighting a barque off the Peninsula, which they supposed to be Messrs C. W. Turner and Co.’s barque Sunbeam, from Calcutta. SHIPPING TELEGRAMS. Auckland. November 27.
