Amongst her cargo are two locomotives and fittings for the Government. Captain Cooper, of the brigantine Island Lily, a report of whose passage appeared in yesterday’s issue, reports speaking the barque Alaska, Captain Fisher, at Owcngo, Chatham Islands, on January 26th. They reported that since leaving the Bay of Islands last June they had taken 650 barrels of sperm and 140 do black oil, and also 65001 b whalebone.

A barqueutino from the ATauritins flying German colours, named the Holstein, and commanded by Captain Kulper, arrived yesterday evening.

She is to he about fifteen feet longer than the Tui, of greater power and speed, and of stronger and heavier build.
