The Omaha was shifted from Peacock's Wharf to the Breastwork to load for Auckland. The brigantine Enterprise was borthed at Peacock's Wharf to discharge yesterday. The barque Malacca has been chartered to load frain. She will take in her stiffening over the revelyan, and when the Pleiades goes into the stream takes her berth to load. The ship Himalaya will be berthed at the Gladstone Pier in the George Shotten's moorings when that vessel is shifted into the stream. This will probably be on Monday or Tuesday next. The Wave Queen will be berthed at the No. 3 Wharf, where the Trevelyan has been moored to discharge her call.

She will fill np with wheat. The Southern Cross steamer is expected here on Sunday next. She will take up the East Coast trade, running regularly between this port, Napier, Gisborne, and Auckland. Mr George Mackay, formerly so well and favorably known as ageut of the N.Z.S.S. Co., and now agont of the Tni, is to have the Lyttelton agency.

ARRIVAL OF MESSES SHAW, SAVILL AND CO.'S SHIP HIMALAYA PROM LONDON. The ship signalled on Tuesday evening proved, as was surmised, to be the Himalaya. She took Pilot Galbraith aboard at 8 p.m. and an hour later dropped anchor again in Lyttolton waters off Diamond Harbor. Sne was cleared yesterday morning, and proceeding on board your representative was kindly welcomed by Captain Williams, who has encceeded Captain Grant, her former commander. Right roughly have the "brave west winds " used the good ship Himalaya, as was apparent from her appearance both outside and inboard; but luckily it is only her upper works that have suffered. Two days after passing Tristan D'Acunha on the 19th March, the worst of tho many gales experienced commenced, and for seven successive days blew with terrific fury. Several seas broke aboard, smashing two of the boats to atoms, damaging the whole of the front of the Baloon, which was flooded several times, carrying away topgallant rail, most of the deck and the stern ports, » and inflicting other serious damage. Luckily there was no loss of life, but one terrible wave, described as being nearly as high as the crossjack yard, swept two seamen from the wheel—one of whom is still suffering from the injuries received carried the chief officer forward, and though he managed, by a desperate effort, to prevent himself from being swept overboard, his right hand was severely injured, and is still nearly useless. Running clown the eastiDg gale after gale was experienced, and for days it wns impossible to carry sail on the ship. On the 21st or March, off the Cape of Good Hope, one of the sailors, a colored man named Daniel Wilson, died of heart disease and dropsy. The Himalaya left the Downs on January 15th, the passage from anchorage to anchorage having thus occupied 114 days. Sho did not, however, take her final departure from the Channel till the 27th of January, and as the Snares were pasaed on May Ist, the run from land to land has been made in 93 days. She brings eleven passengers (those in the third class being comfortably accommodated in a house on deck), and a large and valuable cargo. She comes consigned to Messrs Dalgety, Nichols and Co. '• The following is the captain's report:—Left the Downs on January 15th, the wind blowing fresh from tho westward. It soon increased to a hard gale, lasting until Thursday, the 24th, when it shifted to the northward, and blew very hard, with occasional heavy squalls. On the 26th it moderated, and on Sunday, the 27th, Ushant was passed. That day week passed Madeira. Got the N.E. trades in latitude 25 deg. North, and lost them in 3 deg North. Crossed the Equator in 22 deg. W.; had very fair S.E. trades. Sighted Tristan D'Acunha on| 17th March, and on the 19th it came on to blow very hard from the westward, lasting till the evening of the 25th. During the gale some very heavy seas came aboard, doing a great deal of damage, breaking np two of tho boats, washing away the topgallant rail, and flooding the cabin several times. Ran down easting between the 44th and 48th parallels. From the time we passed the meridian of Greenwich till we got to 115 East we had a continuation of hard gales, which blew at times with such violence that it was not possible to carry sail for days at a time. Sighted the Snares on Wednesday, May Ist, being thus ninety-three days from land to land. Next day the wind cnnie from the N.E., lasting until Snnday, the sth, then had a day's calm with thick fog. Sighted the Peninsnla on Monday night, and on Tuesday evening, about 8, took a pilot aboard, anchoring off Diamond Harbour at 9 p.m. same night.
