Wakatipn arrived from Port Chalmers at 8 a.m. to-day, and will sail this aitemoonfor Sydney via Wellington. The s.s. Hnia arrived last night from Ktukoura, and will sail to-night for that port, Wellington, and Toxton. The barques Buttermere and Crossfleld were cleared at the Customs this morning for London, the Prince Alfred for Wangaroa, and the Bothwell Castle lor Cape Town. „ , , _ ,„ The Mary Bannatyne sailed from Hokitika on May 26th, for this port. She is consigned to Messrs Eoyse, Stead and Co. „ „ The Union Steamship Company’s s.s. Waikatipn, Captain Wheeler, is duo from Port Chalmers this morning, en route to Sydney, via Wellington, I ■ whence she is to sail this evening. The barque Mathieu was taking in ballast yesterday at the Ttmnel wharf. „ , The schooner Maud Graham, for Auckland, finished loading yesterday, and was towed out by the steam launch Lyttelton. | The barqae Orient landed the last of her coals yesterday, and is taking in grain for Callao. The barque Crosfleld, for London, finished loading on Monday night, and yesterday her crew were i at work banding her sails. She was towed into the stream inthe afternoon, and will be cleared to-day I by her agmts, the New Zealand Shipping Co. '• A cenipede. fully ten inches in length, was S captured! day or two ago on board the barque Mathieu,now at the Tunnel wharf. It was taken to Mr Pirsoh’s chemist’s shop, where it may be seen pieservel in spirits. ~ At abent 7 a.m. yesterday the Union Steamship Compaq’s s.s. Arawata, Captain McLean, returned from Ifelson and Woffington. In attempting to turn her before reaching the wharf she foaled against he hillock around one of the transporting buoys, x mishap that delaved her arrival at the wharf nr over two hoars, tne tide being low at the time. It will doubtless be found necessary to take out tb bnoy in question whenever the extension of the Scew-pile jetty, now in progress, is completed, as ita iroximity to the wharf will make it then a great<r obstruction than a means of assistance. The irawata left for Port Chalmers, Blnffi, and Molboane at 5 p.m, ~ _ Information was received in Auckland on Tuesday hat the Norval was ashore high amd dry, about E; fontniles to the north of Tologa Bay, East Coast. The schooner is under the command of Captain Conray, who had his wif« and child on board, and left3isb«me in ballast to load with posts, at some plae near where she has been driven ashore. She fa hgh and dry on the beach at high water, and, so far as con he ascertained, has sustained little damage. Captain Worsp, on behalf of the insnance companies, proceeded to the scene of the week yesterday, and took down anchors and other naterial, for the purpose of trying to get her off. tie schooner (says the "Herald’’) is valued at soont £I4OO, and is insured in the New Zealand and Tational offices for £IOOO. The Norval is 56 tons .•egister, and almost a new vessel, being burn In 1877, and until quite recently has been engaged in the Island trade. DEPAETUEE OF THE COEIOLANUS. The light westerly wind that sprang np early yesterday morning was taken advantage of by the Ship Coriolanns to leave on her voyage for London, flhe is the eighteenth vessel despatched to that port by the New Zealand Shipping Company since the opening of the last wool and grain season.
