She left Blenheim at 9 p.m. on Monday, crossed the bar with a northerly wind, which continued as far as the Kaikoura, thence southerly, the harbor heiug made at 9 p.m. The Napier sailed for Wellington last night.

The Eialto had close upon 1300 tons of gram on hoard yesterday towards her full cargo for London. It is expected she will get away about next M«nday. The representative of Lloyd’s, Mr J. D.

The damaged part is now under water, and is perfectly tight.
